event planning, coordinating & cocktails
FOR THE UNCONVENTIONAL, THE PARTY PEOPLE, THE REBELS, THE ROWDY COWBOYS, & ALL THEIR FRIENDS
Cheers Now Kiss, was started by Elena and Michael, two restaurant industry creatives who have spent the last few years designing and orchestrating unconventional events with the best food, drink, design, and entertainment that New York City has to offer. Through years of cultivating relationships with some of the top talent in the industry, they can do the impossible: wow your guests with events that are bespoke at every level.
Our unique approach to one-of-a-kind events:
Design
We want your event to capture every detail of your essence—where you've been, who you’ll become, and where you are now, surrounded by your loved ones. We’re not just planning a gathering; we’re crafting an experience. It’s a moment to step back, savor the present, and celebrate everything you are, in a setting, that’s unmistakably you. You know, with peonies and inedible fruit tablescapes if that’s your thing.
Coordinating
When you need a big sister-type to make sure all your deadlines get met, all the candles get lit, and yes, also gently remind your uncle that his +1 invite did NOT get lost in the mail.
Cocktails
Your love story in liquid form. Bespoke cocktails that are catered to your tastes, your memories, your heritage, your… anything. We won’t let you settle for a vodka-soda (unless that’s what you want, but in that case we will probably infuse it with pasilla peppers, force carbonate it, and add a culinary foam on top)
