Brian Levenstein's Budget Luxury Event Planning

The word "budget" paired with "luxury" sounds a little like an oxymoron, but with the expertise of Brian Levenstein, you can accomplish a luxurious event no matter what the budget.

Brian Levenstein grew up working in the catering industry. In doing so, he has formed invaluable friendships and connections with florists, decorators, photographers, videographers, bands, DJs, invitation designers and everything else one needs to host the event of a lifetime. In these economic times, allow Brian to help you create the event you desire within the budget you have.

TIP: Brian Levenstein has this message for our MM readers: "In this tough economy, when planning an event which utilizes multiple resources, we use vendors that are able to offer more than one service. By doing so, it can help alleviate some of the stress and more importantly extra expenses that can go hand-in-hand with event planning." Thanks Brian; good to know!
