Modern Rebel & Co. is the evolution of A Modern Vow: all types of events---not just weddings--- (from birthday parties to immersive theatre in cemeteries, oh my!) that have a social cause component. Each time someone plans an event with us, they connect with 1 of 4 local causes. 5% of our profits from each event go back to the non-profit the client picks! Those four causes being: JED Foundation, Homes for the Homeless, B.E.A.T. NYC, and the Center Against Domestic Violence. Our launch party is a chance to connect with those four non-profits and other people that love a) a good time and b) giving back. Come out, drink, dance, and mingle with some of NYC's best.
