Mr. Ingram established his own namesake collection ‘Mark Ingram Bride’ as a response to hearing firsthand the gowns that his customers were missing the most. The Mark Ingram Bride is a Collection brand first but truly so much more of an adjective. The title embodies the woman and the women who inspire their effortless look and feel. They are simple yet stately, they are delicate but impactful. The Mark Ingram Bride Collection is inspired by the women who adorn the gowns and their innate appreciation for chic, quality, and impeccable design.

For designer Amsale (Ahm-sah’-leh) Aberra, it all started with a single wedding dress: her own. Seeking a more modern silhouette for her 1985 nuptials, Ethiopian native Amsale found her options limited. She eschewed the overly ornate—on-trend in that era—and crafted her own pared-down design, elegant in its simplicity and quiet in its impact, featuring a distinct style that was modern and personal at once. Three decades later, her refined and modern aesthetic endures in a variety of collections - and Amsale herself is widely credited as the inventor of the modern wedding dress.

From that very first wedding, I knew I had found my calling. What began as a curiosity quickly turned into a passion and a profession I love deeply. Since then, I’ve planned over 100  weddings and events across New York, New Jersey  and beyond.  With every event, I bring a mix of creativity, attention to detail, and the determination to turn even the most ambitious ideas into beautifully executed celebrations. There's nothing more fulfilling than creating unforgettable moments for couples and their guests-and I can't wait to help you execute a flawless wedding day and bring your vision to life!

I have always been the go-to person for weddings and events among my family and friends. In 2004, I decided to combine my passion and expertise for impeccable event planning. Thus, Events by Sheavonne was established.

My clients value my flawless style, meticulous attention to detail, and relentless work ethic. I am supported by an exceptional team that any planner would envy. Together, we consistently exceed expectations to ensure our couples enjoy the ultimate wedding planning experience. My career as a wedding planner has afforded me the privilege of meeting incredible couples, and I take pleasure in discovering their love stories and understanding their aspirations for their wedding day celebration.

I have curated a network of top-notch vendors and have experience with some of the most distinctive venues. The paramount goal of Events by Sheavonne is to ensure our couples experience an event brimming with love, laughter, and unwavering support.

“At the core of our work is a desire to create a greater good in the world through celebrations and our everyday actions. For us, this means prioritizing clients & vendors whose espoused values and real practices align with our vision for an equitable and inclusive future for all.”

Having been in the wedding industry for 10 years now, I’ve met and collaborated with lot of wedding vendors in the process. In an effort to make your vendor search easier, and in order to lift up other small businesses I love, I’ve highlighted my favorite wedding vendors (aka “friendors”) in this exhaustive list. I have no business agreement with these individuals, just support and love.
