Classic Events is an established wedding and event planning business based in New York City, specializing in New York City weddings. Danielle Elder, the founder of the business, was looking for a way to refresh her brand's look, while simultaneously renaming the company to put less emphasis on her name. By swapping the hierarchy of her name and her business name within the brand's logo, and updating the brand mark to reflect the modern but classic flair Danielle is widely known for, Ceci New York successfully repositioned the business to reflect their more established standing in the New York City event planning world!

Alejandra Poupel is known for her elegant, luxurious events, and needed business cards that embodied that spirit. The front of her business cards keep it classy and professional with taupe letterpress on luxe white paper. We love the bright orange in her brand color palette and decided the back of the card should be this pop of color, with her logo stamped in gold foil on top. The cards were finished with a gold foiled edge.

Juvelan is a bespoke jewelry brand based in Germany specializing in luxury, handcrafted bridal jewelry. The client came to Ceci New York looking for a brand refresh, as they are currently expanding their line to incorporate everyday pieces along with their bridal-focused offerings. They had created a logo very quickly as they initially launched their brand, and were looking for a new brand that felt more polished and sophisticated! The final mark paired two "J's" representing the brand name, as well as the two company founders, and is evocative of a link in a jewelry chain.

Christine Lawrence is a family-owned business that creates custom luxury upholstery, drapery, and furniture, who came to Ceci New York for a refreshed logo to modernize and upgrade their company's look. They loved the idea of an abstract logo mark which allowed us to play with all of the different elements that go into upholstery and interiors. We landed on a refined mark that was inspired by fabric swatches layered on top of each other, and paired it with a typographic treatment that included a stitch-like element to make it unique.

KA Mariage is an international event planning company, specializing in weddings and corporate events. After establishing her company in the Quebec, Montreal market to great success, the client came to Ceci New York looking to refine her current brand into feeling more corporate and luxe, as well as help position her company to be open to the US market as well. Rose gold was selected as the main brand color, to give the logo a feminine edge, and it was paired with a light gray color for a soft, neutral look.

Have a Seat is an established Event & Floral Design company with a longstanding, successful event rental business based in Canada, who came to Ceci New York looking for a brand refresh! Their company had been using the same logo for many years, and had tried evolving it on their own in order to give themselves a brand update. However, they felt the look of their branding was starting to feel a bit disjointed and inconsistent. Ceci New York first focused on the primary goals of their business, in order to successfully position them within their market and spearhead their logo design in the right direction. Ultimately, the event rentals side of the business emerged as the clear focal point, so Ceci New York focused on developing a brand mark that captured this side of their business in a sophisticated way. By playing with the various shapes of the rental chairs the company was known for, a new mark was created that is meant to be evocative of those shapes in an abstract, luxe way. The cross of the "H" in the center of the mark is also evocative of the seat of a chair, playing off of the double meaning in their name, as well as the shapes in the mark itself.

Kate Neal Photography came to Ceci New York for a rebranding and wanting to reach higher end clients in the Philadelphia and NYC markets. A husband and wife team, Kate Neal Photography prides themselves on being two "first shooters" for events, so you're hiring two experts who are able to capture the special moments of your event. It was important for the new logo to speak to a luxury market but also be approachable and friendly, and maintain their playful side. We paired two stylized and feminine capital letters with a classic typeface with an angular edge to it to maintain this balance and create the perfect logo.
