ABOUT US

Two friends.One table.

The story behind Tied with a Bow.

OUR STORY

How we came to set the table.

At Tied with a Bow, Esther and Sara are two close friends with a shared passion for beautiful, thoughtful hosting.

Based in New Jersey, we bring over 10 years of experience creating curated tablescapes, personalized celebrations, and private chef experiences that transform gatherings into something truly memorable.

What began as a love for the details—the table, the food, and the overall experience—quickly became a passion we knew we wanted to share. Together, we've discovered that the most meaningful celebrations are the ones where every detail feels intentional.

We believe hosting should feel elevated, not overwhelming. By taking the time to understand your vision, style, and the moments you're celebrating, we thoughtfully curate every aspect of your event—from concept to execution—so you can relax, be present, and enjoy.

At the heart of everything we do is a simple goal: creating beautiful, effortless gatherings that feel warm, personal, and unforgettable.

Decor & Tablescapes

The eye behind the tablescape. Beautiful gatherings begin with thoughtful details—layered linens, glowing candlelight, lush florals, and the finishing touches that make every table feel beautifully complete.
