Events by Perfect Planning…Munaluchi Bridal City-to-City Tour, Washington, DC

Early Winter 2013, I had the privilege of planning a spectacular event for the fastest growing bridal magazine for women of color and multicultural weddings in the U.S. and abroad – Munaluchi Bridal Magazine!

Munaluchi Bridal Magazine was founded in 2010 by a dynamic husband and wife team, Jacqueline and Chike Nwobu of New Jersey.  While taking charge of their powerful careers, they began a second career as photographers that traveled the world taking photographs of very diverse, chic, and elegant weddings.  As they captured these dazzling images of their clients they wondered how can we showcase this hidden beauty that has not had the opportunity to grace any major magazine.  So they had a vision to create  a magazine.  After countless hours of research and the diligence to produce a product that would be adorned by all, Munaluchi Bridal Magazine was created.  They created a format to provide a vision and a stage of sophistication for women of color whom are major contributors in a $160 billion wedding industry.

The name of the magazine, Munaluchi, derives from a combination of two African names, Ethiopian and Nigerian; when combined means “Beautiful Work of God”.  The ideal canvas and description of the audience in which exemplifies their target audience – all women of color.

The night of the event was breathtaking.  It was an honor the day I received the phone call from the Owners/Editor-in-Chiefs, Jackie & Chike, to take on the responsibility to organize this celebration for the magazine.  There was relentless and outstanding collaboration with some of the best wedding professionals in the Washington, DC Metro area.  The highlight of organizing this event, was that I had the opportunity to collaborate with my idol and someone who I highly admire, Mr. Andre Wells of Events by Andre Wells – celebrity wedding and event planner.  Our host location was the Liaison Capitol Hill Hotel in Washington, DC – a boutique style hotel for the chic and progressive professionals of Washington.  To create the final touches to the night, we had the opportunity to collaborate with some amazing wedding professionals in the industry:  Evelyn Alas Photography, Janet Flowers, Deejay Tye, and Frame Magic Productions.

Hats off to all of those involved.  Special thanks to Munaluchi Bridal Magazine for providing me with this rewarding opportunity.  Looking forward to future event collaborations.
