Tales of a Broadway Wedding Planner

Before Jason Mitchell became the go-to wedding planner for Broadway couples, he worked—where else—in show business. Mitchell got his start writing plays like The Red Box and The Boys Upstairs. He supplemented his growing theatrical career by working at the Soho House, where he was in charge of private events. It was at the posh private club in the Meatpacking District where he found his true calling. “As a writer, I’ve always been someone who has studied relationships and family dynamics,” says Mitchell. “That’s very important as you arrive at a wedding and need to be familiar with the ins and outs of close friends and families.”
