"Fun is non-negotiable."
— Meg Critchell
"Every event is personal — because that's exactly how it should be."
Meg CritchellMeg Critchell grew up a farmer's daughter on a New Jersey tree farm that has been in her family since the early nineteenth century — a childhood steeped in tradition, beauty, and the art of gathering. Mentored by her grandmother, a gifted hostess with an instinct for making every occasion feel special, and shaped by watching her mother build a career as an innkeeper and event planner, Meg's path was formed long before she ever planned her first event.
After college, Meg channeled her lifelong love of connecting people into a career as a professional fundraiser and event planner, including a defining role as Manager of Special Events at the iconic Morgan Library in New York City. In 2003, she founded Meg Critchell Events to bring that same passion, creativity, and sense of fun to clients planning the most meaningful occasions of their lives.
Today, Meg plans extraordinary weddings, birthdays, and celebrations across the United States and the Caribbean, all from her home base in Greenwich, Connecticut. For Meg, every event is personal — because that's exactly how it should be.
