Each Chandelier Event tells a story through a variety of touchpoints designed to engage the senses from the venue and culinary story to curated entertainment and perfomances to out-of-the-box, creative design. 

 

Known for her whimsical creativity, vast experience in weddings and social events, branding, TV and public relations, and relationships with top industry event professionals, Amy Shey Jacobs leads her team on the planning of every Chandelier Event.
