About

Much acclaimed Celebrity Event Designer and Television Personality Samantha Goldberg has operated Gold Events LLC and Samantha Goldberg and Co for over 18 years.

Once a team of two, Samantha now oversees and directs a staff of 15 planners able to coordinate events all over the United States and several key destination locales. Samantha herself now dedicates her time with planning celebrity events, private functions and her own personal appearances in support of her television career.
 
Samantha’s expertise is high-design; although she has an innate ability to work within any budget delivering spectacular results whether given 3 days notice or 3 years of planning. Sam’s grace-under-pressure is a testament to her quick-thinking and problem-solving abilities; not to mention the most important element in event planning, maintaining a terrific sense of humor. In any setting; celebrity, corporate or private affairs, Samantha’s winning personality puts people at ease so they can just enjoy “their moment” without the stress of handling thousands of tiny details.

Tips and Advice
While planning used to afforded only by the wealthy and famous, there are many agencies that work with any budget. It's very important to begin the planning process before you run to your favorite dress shop! You may find that the extravagant dress just took several thousands away from the wedding of your dreams budget.

Start with the essential items needed to make your wedding the best it can be. It is helpful as a couple to create a "needs and wants list". Once you have completed the "needs", you may find you have extra funds to get some of the items that are above what you thought you could afford!

A planner can assist you in finding those extra funds, suggesting new methods for having the wedding of your dreams and keep you sane!

Remember most importantly to focus on your life instead of wedding planning 24/7. Not only will this save you from stress but will also strengthen your relationship!

Happy Planning!
