With a 20-year background in the special events industry, her goal is to create a unique experience for you and your guests by incorporating your wedding traditions, regional culture, lifestyle and the most current design trends.
Ms. Swiezy has worked as a wedding and event planner for many of New York’s most famous families, such as the Dolan’s, Trump’s, and Brokaw’s.
Nancy is known not as a wedding planner, but as an art director for weddings. She was the proud owner of The Newport Wedding Gallery and is the publisher of the blog NewportWeddings.blogspot.com.
Benchmarc Events has been lucky enough to have Nancy design the decor and florals for many great events, including the St. Luke’s School Annual Gala at DVF Studios (pictured below), a CNN luncheon for Piers Morgan, many rehearsal dinner and wedding events, wine tastings, and more.
Nancy Swiezy's Special Event Bio
Nancy Swiezy started her event career at now legendary
destinations Maxwell’s Plum and La Petite Ferme. As an actress in Manhattan during the late 70’s, Ms. Swiezy used her ground floor experience to develop knowledge of fine cuisine while she honed her palette atthese outstanding restaurants.
By the early 80s, Ms. Swiezy had transitioned to a position with Cusinart teaching cooking classes at Bloomingdales flagship store in New York City. Additionally, she freelanced as a food stylist and on site catering chef. Her culinary know-how took her to the Learning Annex where she taught two informative classes: How to Plan a Wedding on a Shoestring and Catering from Your Kitchen.
Her expertise as a culinary event chef led to catering numerous weddings. However when an opportunity to become a full time chef for God’s Love We Deliver came about; she accepted a sous chef position.
At God’s Love, Ms. Swiezy worked closely with Martha Meier, a Society Special Event Decorator. Through this collaboration, Ms. Swiezy was able to work on big budget projects from society weddings to corporate events. Martha was Marcy Blum’s preferred decorator at the time. Ms. Swiezy considered it an honor to work and train with the renowned Ms. Meier.
Given her broad-based experience in the event design/culinary field, her skill set led her to a position with BizBash Media where she rose to become Associate Publisher with the Media Company that chronicles the New York special events industry. In 2006 She joined Tenation Potel & Chabot as Business Development Director.
She left Tentation Potel And Chabot to produce a Wedding for Robert and Blain Trump’s son at the Marble House in Newport R.I. under A Newport Affaire.

One Sandwich at a Time...A Sandwich Making Extravaganza!
I stopped by to help out at OSAAT last night.
This new charity hosted their 2nd event.
It was a huge success!
I was asked to bring my 'sandwich-making hands' to build sandwiches that were later distributed to a homeless shelter. that evening.
One Sandwich at a Time aims to make a difference in a trying time in our world.As Audrey Hepburn once said, "We have two hands- one to help ourselves and one to help others."

A Indian Lilly Pond Themed Rehearsal Dinner
Tonight's couple will be spending their Honeymoon in India, so I created a lotus pond centerpiece for this family event. With Water Lilly's out of season, clusters of cymbidium orchids and galax leaves were replaced on top of a beautiful turquoise tablecloth.
By the way Water Lilly's are India's National Flower!

Dear Nancy,
We very much appreciate the table decorations you created for our celebration dinner last Friday night for David and Stacey. We loved the teal, the Indian theme, and the centerpieces with the orchids, lily pads, stones, and of course the beautiful frog! It gave such an intriguing ambience to the party! Again, many thanks for your creative design and artful execution!
Happy holidays! The Turner Family
