Newlywedcast with Hyela and Jack who had a romantic wedding at the Essex House in New York City

Summary: Are you a little older?  Do you both work?  Would you want to plan your second wedding different than your first?  Hyela does and embraces her second walk down the aisle with much happiness.  Jack, never married before, has two proposals to make.  Hear how Jack includes Sabrina, Hyela's 8 year old daughter.  Later in the show you find out that Jack selected the simple, yet sexy Elizabeth Fillmore wedding dress at Saks Fifth Avenue.  It's a red carpet winner for Hyela's big day.  Hyela and Jack have a year to plan their New York City wedding.  They know they want an intimate and elegant location.  Having no time to really work on a wedding, they hired an event coordinator, Kristin Manolis of Manolis & Company Productions.  We asked this busy, engaged couple how they found Kristin and how they worked together. Date: Thanksgiving weekend.  Place: The Essex House.  What next?  This special couple wanted a party -not a traditional "first" wedding.    Music and entertainment was such important components that they had a separate coordinator.  Ever think of including your guests into the lyrics of a song? Would you want someone famous to officiate?  At first Jack was not enthusiastic, but was ultimately touched by former Mayor David Dinkins' heartfelt words.  The ceremony was touching & meaningful for Hyela, Jack and their guests. Hyela worked very closely with Kristin when designing floral centerpieces and the creative stationery system.  Individual menus had beautiful calligraphy and were presented in the round. Some really unique and innovative designs were incorporated to reflect this couple's taste and personality. Best advice: definitely hire an event coordinator.  After interviewing three or four possible candidates Hyela and Jack were very pleased with Kristin's ability to orchestrate and produce a fabulous wedding.  They said, "Kristin does all the work.  We expressed our desires and chose exactly what we wanted .  Guaranteed you'll have less mistakes, headaches and hassles."
