Luxury & Personalized Wedding Planning in NYC

Luxury & Personalized Wedding Planning in NYC

Luxury doesn’t have to mean over-the-top. It doesn’t mean stiff or formal or full of things you don’t care about. At MJ Wedding Planner NYC, Luxury & Personalized Wedding Planning means one thing: your wedding, done exactly how you imagined — with style, intention, and zero chaos.

 

Whether you’re dreaming of a high-end rooftop wedding overlooking Manhattan or a refined celebration in a historic brownstone with velvet linens and vintage jazz, we’ll help design and plan every inch of it. We mix design, logistics, and people skills to make something personal, custom, and stress-free.

What Makes a Wedding Feel Luxurious?

It’s not just the price tag. It’s the experience.

 

  • The quiet confidence of knowing someone’s handling everything.

  • The wow moments your guests will remember forever.

  • The seamless flow where nothing feels rushed or awkward.

  • The custom touches that reflect your story, not Pinterest trends.

 

That’s what we bring to the table. We take your vision — even if it’s just a feeling — and build something stylish, cohesive, and timeless.

Full-Service Planning with a Design Focus

We handle everything — from budget strategy to lighting layouts. Our luxury clients typically want both full wedding planning and hands-on creative direction. We provide:

 

🎨 Custom Wedding Design

We’ll develop a complete style concept based on your tastes, location, and season. Not just colors — but mood, energy, materials, lighting, and guest experience. Think “editorial” meets “heartfelt.”

 

📋 Expert Planning & Management

You’ll have a master timeline, a full vendor roster, clear budgets, and a team managing every deadline and detail.

 

🤝 Curated Vendor Team

You’ll work with the city’s top-tier vendors — ones we know, trust, and have worked with before. Think floral artists, creative chefs, high-end stationers, and experienced stylists who understand luxury without being pushy or fake.

 

💌 Concierge Support

Need help writing your vows? Want to curate a signature scent? Need extra attention for your VIP guests? We’ll handle it all — from invitation etiquette to gift bag assembly.

Local Elegance with NYC Edge

Our luxury weddings have taken place at venues like:

  • 620 Loft & Garden – with views of St. Patrick’s Cathedral

     

  • The Beekman – with moody lighting and custom art installations

     

  • The Foundry – with lush florals climbing up industrial brick walls

     

  • The Glasshouse – full skyline views, sleek finishes, and dramatic uplighting

     

  • Harlem brownstones – transformed with live bands, candlelight, and plated dinners

     

One couple asked for a “New York speakeasy meets Paris runway” vibe — and we delivered, with black velvet chairs, dried florals, a live saxophonist, and a neon bar tucked in a corner library.

Whatever your vision, we bring it to life — not with flash, but with finesse.

Designed For Couples Who Want More

You don’t want basic. You don’t want recycled ideas. You want something crafted, not copied.

We work with couples who:

  • Want to invest in quality over quantity

  • Care deeply about aesthetics, guest experience, and meaning

  • Prefer working with a small team that truly gets them

  • Are busy, but still want to be part of the process

 

You’ll have full creative control when you want it — and none of the stress when you don’t.

A Personalized Approach to Everything

Every decision starts with one question: Does this feel like you?

If it doesn’t, we skip it. If it does, we run with it.

 

We help guide you through:

 

  • Invitation design and guest communication

  • Signature cocktails or custom menu pairings

  • Lighting and room layout for mood and flow

  • Personal rituals or traditions you want to include

  • Outfit styling and prep timelines

  • Music curation (we once hired a string quartet to cover ’90s hip hop)

 

It’s not just about the look. It’s how the whole day feels.

Real Story: A Two-Part Luxury Wedding on the Upper West Side

One of our couples hosted a two-day wedding — a modern rooftop cocktail ceremony on Friday night, then a black-tie dinner and dancing at the Museum of Natural History the next day. They had a clear vision: fun, stylish, intentional.

We handled everything: hotel buyouts for guests, museum permits, live entertainment, late-night eats, afterparty logistics, and personalized thank-you notes.

They didn’t want the typical — and we didn’t give it to them. It was luxe, layered, and unforgettable.

FAQs About Luxury Wedding Planning in NYC

What’s the average budget for a luxury NYC wedding?
Luxury weddings in NYC often start at $75k–$150k and can go well above that. We’ll work within your range and help you spend wisely, where it counts.

 

Do you only work with certain venues?
We have preferred venues, but we’re flexible. Some of our most stunning weddings have been in unexpected places. If the space speaks to you, we’ll make it work.

 

Can I be involved in the creative process?
Of course. We love collaborating. Some clients give us full control, others want to be hands-on — either way, you’re never left out.

 

Do you plan multicultural or interfaith luxury weddings?
Yes. We’ve planned Jewish, Indian, Chinese tea ceremonies, Persian sofreh aghd, and many more. We work with you to honor traditions with elegance and respect.

 

How do I know if luxury planning is right for me?
If you want a high-touch, highly personalized experience — and you care about more than just “getting through the day” — then luxury planning may be right for you.

“Hiring MJ Wedding Planner NYC was hands-down the best decision we made. We were planning a wedding in Brooklyn while juggling work and family, and they just made everything feel manageable. From vendor recommendations to timeline stuff, they were super responsive and calm — even when we weren’t. The day itself went off without a hitch. It honestly felt like magic. I didn’t worry about a single thing.”

“We had no idea how to plan a wedding in Manhattan, especially since we both work full-time. MJ Wedding Planner NYC came in, asked all the right questions, and built a plan around exactly what we wanted. They found our venue, lined up every vendor, and kept us on track the whole time. Our wedding was on a rooftop in Midtown with a string quartet and candlelight, and it was perfect. We’re still getting compliments.”

“I tend to be pretty detail-obsessed, so trusting someone else with our wedding was a big deal. But MJ Wedding Planner NYC was so organized and thoughtful, I felt comfortable from the first meeting. They stayed two steps ahead of everything — handled vendor drama, tweaked the schedule when our photographer was late, and somehow kept us both calm through it all. Our ceremony in Central Park and reception in SoHo couldn’t have gone smoother. Worth every penny.”

“We planned our wedding from out of state, which could’ve been a nightmare — but MJ Wedding Planner NYC made it feel totally doable. They helped us find the perfect venue in Dumbo, handled all the vendor coordination, and even created a full weekend schedule for our guests. Everything ran smooth and on time, and the vibe was exactly what we wanted. Chill, beautiful, and very us. Couldn’t have pulled it off without them.”

“We had a multicultural wedding with a lot of moving parts — two ceremonies, two outfits, two menus — and MJ Wedding Planner NYC handled it like pros. They made sure every detail was respected and every moment felt seamless. Our parents were impressed (which says a lot), and we actually got to enjoy the day instead of managing it. Total lifesavers.”
