The Full Story
About us!
Congratulations on your upcoming Wedding! We are thrilled to have the opportunity to get to know you and help plan the stress-free wedding of YOUR dreams.
Hey there! I’m Suze your Certified Wedding and Event Planner and the Heart & Soul behind Songbirds N Soulmates!
Songbirds N Soulmates Wedding and Event Planning LLC established in 2024 located in Howell, NJ.
I fell in LOVE with weddings at the age of 6, after being chosen as the flower girl for my Aunt and Uncle's special day. Ever since then, I have been completely captivated by all things related to weddings! I have efficiently organized my entire wedding from start to finish and have assisted in planning events, bridal showers, weddings, and baby showers for family and friends.
I love all things weddings: the couples, the love, the families, the friends, the flowers, the food, the venues, the vows, the toasts, the dancing, the photos, the cake and of course the planning…let’s face it, I love it all!
Throughout my life, I have held various management positions that have shaped me into the independent and resilient individual I am today. I have confidence in my skills and continuously aim for excellence. Dealing with numerous challenging circumstances and personalities has taught me that there is a solution to every problem. The important thing is to maintain composure and stay calm. I decided to take a leap of faith and take a course though Lovegevity.com to become a Certified Wedding and Event Planner so I could learn everything I could about weddings and events.

Waking from her sleep one night in the apartment she shared with bandmate Stevie Nicks, “Songbird” popped into Christine McVie’s head around 3:30 in the morning as if she was being “visited” by someone, or something.
“I woke up in the middle of the night and the song just came into my head,” said McVie of Fleetwood Mac’s classic Rumours ballad. “I got out of bed, played it on the little piano I have in my room, and sang it with no tape recorder. I sang it from beginning to end... everything.” She added, “I can’t tell you quite how I felt. It was as if I’d been visited. It was a very spiritual thing. I was frightened to play it again in case I’d forgotten it.”
The next day morning, McVie took it to producer Ken Callait and put it down on a 2-track recorder. “I don’t know where that [song] came from,” added McVie. “I wished it would happen more often, but it hasn’t.”
The ambiguity of “Songbird” captures the selflessness of love—for someone or one’s self. McVie insisted that the song was never about anyone, or anything, in particular.
“It doesn’t really relate to anybody in particular; it relates to everybody,” said McVie in a 2017 interview on the meaning of the song. “A lot of people play it at their weddings or at bar mitzvahs or at their dog’s funeral. It’s universal. It’s about you and nobody else. It’s about you and everybody else. That’s how I like to write songs.” ❤️
McVie has said on many occasions that she wrote “Songbird” in just 30 minutes and needed to get the melody and lyrics out as swiftly as possible so she wouldn’t forget it.
