We'll admit it, we're outwardly fan-girling over New York wedding planner Jove Meyers and jumped at the chance to sit down with him and chat about all things pretty, his gorgeous go-to's and some serious insider scoop on Big Apple I-do's.
Over the years Jove has planned and designed weddings and events that run the gamut from a vintage farm in the countryside of France to a beautiful beach in California as well as just about every venue we have heart eyez over in NYC. He's all about reflecting each couple's personal style and we've got a running theory it's because he's got so much swag, swag, swag style of his own.
We love his out-of-the-box approach to both weddings and life and we're supes lucky that he's agreed to lead us on an Insider's Guide to Gathering in one of our fave cities in the world. Enjoy!
