A Storybook Wedding

This wedding revolved around nature and romance. This gorgeous couple perfectly fit the role of bride and groom. The bride looked stunning with her loose hair flowing against her beautiful lace gown. The groom was her perfect complement in a crisp navy suit that was perfectly tailored. On their special day, the couple looked like they stepped right out of a story book so it was fitting that the wedding took place at a magnificent  castle. Their ceremony was picturesque but as soon as they said their I do’s the party began. This wedding was different in the fact that there was no sit down dinner to stop the guest from partying. The cocktail hour was an array of elegant bite sized food that continued to get more lush and decadent as the night progressed. For this party, this idea was perfect because the guests could enjoy the night without ever having to stop and eat. The flower arrangements in lavenders, peaches and ivory that complemented the lovely country setting. We incorporated nature into the reception to keep in theme with the rustic yet elegant vibe of this wedding. Pink Monkey Events wanted to make sure this wedding was special and it turned out just like a fairytale!

Our Monkey of the Month


Harley, our very own Pink Monkey, is this month’s Monkey of the Month! Harley is our little diva but we love her no matter how demanding she may me. Just because she is a dog (but don't tell her that) doesn’t mean she doesn’t know what she wants! Harley’s wagging tail, charming snoring and adorable face brightens up every day at our Pink Monkey Events office and for that she is our pick for Monkey of the Month!

Rooftop Sophistication

We at Pink Monkey Events always say that the couple makes the wedding! Emily and Dave were one of our favorite couples of all time. We admired both their grace and love for one another. We made sure to have their elegance reflected into all aspects of their wedding. This gorgeous event took place at the Tribecca Rooftop, one of our favorite venues. This Manhattan location showcases the amazing NYC skyline that makes for a truly breathtaking backdrop. The cocktail hour took place on the amazing rooftop and the reception followed in the spacious, loft-like space inside. Every detail from the bride’s fabulous purple shoes to the lush flower arrangements reflected the couple’s style. The floral arrangements were in decadent purple in shades of lavender and eggplant added to the overall theme. No matter how amazing the décor, food and venue their family and friends made this party. Both sides of the family were so sincere and gracious that it was our pleasure to create this special event for this couple!

A Pink Monkey Super Sweet 16

At Pink Monkey Events we are all about making our clients happy! Our goal is to make your event all about you and what you like. When we had our very first client meeting with Adriana, our very own sweet 16 superstar, she expressed her love for purple and hot pink. At Pink Monkey Events your wish is our command! We created this event with tons of purple and hot pink along with masks and other décor to make for a fun carnival theme. For this 4th of July Sweet 16 we got lucky enough to be located close enough to the East River to get to enjoy the free fireworks. This was a special treat because for those of you that don’t know, the average firework show costs $1000 per minute!  The fireworks fit perfectly with this party because with all the glitz and glam that was the only thing this event was missing! This vibrant and over the top event was our very own version of a Pink Monkey Events Super Sweet 16 and it was truly spectacular.

From Trash to Treasure



Don’t throw away your old wine bottle corks! You never know what you could do with what may seem like trash. We at Pink Monkey Events can find a use for anything! Corks can be used as stands to hold up table numbers or for escort cards. As seen in the photos you can use them stacked together or individually. Corks give a homemade touch to any event. This detail is perfect for cocktail parties and since wine is connected with celebrating, old corks can add to any celebratory event!
