Having worked in the events industry for several years, Lydia has
grown and refined her planning skills through hands on experience.
Whether it be as a Director of Events for the high end, boutique
planning company New York Caterers & Planners, an Event Planner
for Dean & Deluca or an Independent Event Consultant for
Aviator, a state of the art 170,000 sq. ft. sports and
recreational facility in Brooklyn, Lydia's commitment to her clients,
always shines through with her meticulous approach to planning and
her ability to see the big picture. Passionate about
cultivating ideas and goals from the stages of concept to reality is
what keeps Lydia enthusiastic about the ever evolving world of event planning.
As a personal passion Lydia believes in the benefits of whole foods
and community supported agriculture, incorporating these beliefs into
her work. She has attended and worked with the Institute for
Integrative Nutrition in New York City to further her education in
these areas.
Lydia is thrilled to be able to put her experience and passions to
good use as the owner of Charmed Places!
No stranger to the Hudson Valley Lydia spent every summer of her
youth in the Catskill mountains with her family, several of them as a
camper and camp counselor enjoying overnights at Devil's Kitchen and
other camping spots, canoe trips down the Delaware and of course
tubing on the Esopus River.
After 15 years based in New York City, Lydia has made the move
upstate and is now, happily, based full-time in New Paltz.

Greetings!
I am pleased to announce the new owner of
Charmed Places, Lydia FitzGerald. When I learned that Lydia,
whom I knew through the industry, was making the big move from
Manhattan to the Hudson Valley, I jumped at the opportunity to offer
Charmed Places to her. I knew with Lydia, that Charmed Places would
be in experienced, knowledgeable, capable and creative hands. It is
also important to me that she is able to connect with city clients,
having spent the last 15 years of her life in Manhattan. She is
simply perfect for it!
Having spent the past six-years with
Charmed Places, I have developed so many wonderful relationships with
all of you that I am and will be eternally grateful for. I have had
THE MOST fun! Professionally, I gained a ton more
experience. I got to know every nook and cranny of the Hudson
Valley more intimately than I could have ever imagined and now I can
truly enjoy all of its splendor with my family . . . The
business, ultimately led me to my husband, which eventually led to
baby and so now I have made the decision to focus on and put all of
my passion toward my family.
Thank you dearly for your support and
comradeship throughout the years. I just know that you will
appreciate and enjoy continuing to service weddings and events with
Lydia and that Lydia will enjoy working with all of you, as much as I have.
With gratitude and best wishes,
Tammy Baldwin |
