We’re Emma, Chandler, and Kaitlin—three lifelong friends-turned-wedding planners based in New York City and its dreamy surrounding areas. Raised just outside of Charlotte, our bond began with backyard adventures and homemade celebrations, and now fuels the heart behind every wedding we plan.

At Cheval Noir, we believe every couple should feel like family. That means genuine care, honest communication, and a planning experience that’s as warm and easy as a conversation around the dinner table.

Emma leads with a decade of event expertise and a passion for soulful celebrations. Chandler brings hands-on creativity and a love for the details, inspired by planning her own wedding. Kaitlin blends business strategy with creative edge, drawing from years in events and finance.

Together, we design elevated, European-inspired weddings that are timeless, intentional, and deeply personal. Whether you're dreaming of a garden party in the Hudson Valley or an intimate loft soirée in Brooklyn, we’re here to bring your vision to life—seamlessly.

Let’s connect—we’d love to meet you.
