I can't recommend Ari highly enough! From the moment we hired her to help plan my son's Bar Mitzvah, she was a dream to work with. Ari is friendly and approachable, and she immediately put us at ease. We were feeling overwhelmed by all the details, but she expertly guided us through the process, offering fantastic ideas and keeping us on track. On the day of the event, we didn't have to worry about a thing. Ari handled all the logistics flawlessly, allowing us to truly enjoy the special occasion with our family and friends. If you're looking for a talented and dedicated event planner, Ari is the perfect choice!

ARJ Productions is the best of the best!

Where to begin - Ari and her team are amazing! As a type-A bride who had most ideas of what I wanted ironed out, Ari, Kristin, Jenny and Jessie made me feel heard and supported. From answering my late night thought texts (sorry Ari!!!) to putting together the most epic timeline of our day, Ari and team allowed me and my husband to truly be able to do what every bride and groom wants - enjoy their wedding day! I cannot thank the team enough for their hard work, professionalism, and easy-going nature. Thank you Ari, Kristin, Jessie and Jenny for being our DREAM TEAM!!!!!

ARJ Productions was not a luxury but my lifesaver. Ari was by far the most organized, responsive, creative and connected of all of the event planners I interviewed. As a working mom, there is no way I could have put together such a beautiful weekend without her help. She took the stress out of hosting a knockout bar mitzvah celebration for my son. Because Ari knows absolutely everybody in the industry, she saved me more money through her connections and recommendations than if I had to negotiate all of the vendor contracts on my own. ONLY with Ari's help did I pull off a four-part mitzvah weekend. And she made it fun.

Ari planned our son’s Bar Mitzvah April 2024. She is so organized and responsive. She recommended a wonderful venue that we loved. She is great to work with, passionate about her work and overall wonderful. I felt calm the week of the event because everything was handled and done. Thank you Ari and team!

We used Ari for our son's Bar Mitzvah in April 2018.

Look no further. Ari is wonderful! She is on top of all the details that you can think of, plus a million more that you never would have thought of. She has a flare for decorating and a knack for knowing what you want, even when you don't know yourself. She returns emails and phone calls lightening fast. And she is just the nicest person to work with.

Not only was Ari great in the planning process, but she was such a calming and stable influence throughout the chaos of the event. No matter how hard you plan, something-- large or small-- will go wrong. Throughout the event, Ari smoothed over every bump from every vendor and every guest. She was also my voice of reason when one of my family members had to go to the emergency room during the party. Ari kept me calm and kept the party flowing, so my guests-- and more importantly my son-- continued to enjoy the party.

I started out thinking I didn't really need an event planner. However, I'm so grateful we had Ari. Maybe I could have pulled off an event without her, but it wouldn't have been nearly as beautiful or stress-free.

Ari and Kristin are amazing planners and we highly recommend them! They are true professionals and treat our clients well. You want a planner who is calm under pressure and who has great relationships with vendors. ARJ Productions care for their clients and does a great job every time!

Ari is amazing. From the first time I spoke with Ari, I knew that she was going to be awesome. Ari is creative and collaborative. She kept us on task. And, she is the most responsive vendor that we dealt with. We consider Ari part of the family. My son's bar mitzvah was beautiful and perfectly executed - thanks to Ari who did not sit down all night!

Now that my sons Bar Mitzvah is in the books, I want to thank Ari and her entire team for everything they did to make our dream a reality. Ari was so easy to work with. She expertly recommended vendors who could bring my vision to fruition. She has excellent people skills that help when working with vendors. Also, the night of my event, she was INVALUABLE!!!! She worked her tail off and made sure that everything went of without a hitch. I don't have my next child's date yet, but once I have it, the first call I will be making is to ARJ productions!
