Exquisite Affairs Productions

What Exquisite Affairs Productions does

Exquisite Affairs Productions Inc. (doing business as EAP Weddings) is a privately held wedding planning and event coordination firm founded in 2006 by Christine Viola and Tara Geremia. The company is headquartered at 265 Canal Street, Suite 206, in Manhattan, and serves engaged couples across the New York tri-state area (New York, New Jersey, Connecticut). Its service offering is structured around three named packages: Silver Sixpence (full planning from venue sourcing through budget allocation and vendor matching), In Her Shoes (partial planning for couples who have booked their date and venue), and Something Blue (day-of coordination). The firm also bundles custom wedding stationery through an exclusive partnership with Type & Love Paperie.

The company operates without a proprietary technology platform; its deliverables are produced by a small staff of human coordinators with backgrounds in corporate finance, marketing, retail management, and fashion styling. Over nearly two decades of operation, EAP has cultivated a preferred network of 60+ venues and named vendors across cake, catering, florals, photography, videography, hair & makeup, and officiants, including marquee NYC-area venues such as Mandarin Oriental, The Pierre Hotel, Wave Hill, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, and Oheka Castle. The firm's growth motion is direct-to-consumer, with inquiries handled through website contact forms and consultations conducted by appointment at the Manhattan office.

Commercially, EAP runs a professional services revenue model with quote-based pricing that is not publicly disclosed. Its stated mission of making "luxury service accessible to couples of all budgets" indicates a deliberate mix across premium and mid-market wedding budgets. The firm invests minimally in paid marketing and instead relies on earned media — repeated real-wedding editorial features across Carats & Cake, Brides, Style Me Pretty, The Knot, Pop Sugar, and several regional wedding blogs — as its principal top-of-funnel channel, supported by an online portfolio gallery on its Squarespace-hosted website. No external funding, acquisitions, or technology platforms have been disclosed.

• Alison Events: Boutique wedding and event planning firm with strong press presence and a comparable full planning / partial planning / day-of service structure for high-end weddings.
• Marcy Blum Associates: Iconic NYC luxury wedding planner operating in the same tri-state market with a full-service, high-touch model and comparable venue relationships; closest direct comparable on positioning and price point.
