about us

how it started.... A random conversation (one of hundreds) amongst two girlfriends over manis and pedis is how sweet sisters came to fruition!

Bonding about the trials and tribulations of working motherhood and the never-ending quest to fulfill our entrepreneurial dreams, self-proclaimed candy junkie Jess went on a rant about her lifelong dream to open a candy store (with her sisters...hence the name sweet sisters) and the lack of candy stores in the area. And not just any candy store - but one that is whimsical and boutiquey and offered a way or place to create amazing parties. Without thinking twice, self-proclaimed candy junkie Tracey said, "Let's Do It"!

Weekly meetings started immediately. Within one month we officially registered our company. And almost one year later sweet sisters is ready for business!

our expertise.... Co-founders Tracey Gondelman & Jess Black aren't sisters but we are certainly a part of the sisterhood! Creative spirits at heart, together we offer more than 20 years of event planning expertise.

Graduating from Dean College with a degree in Sports Management, Tracey is a leader in developing and managing programs, activities and parties for children and adults. She recently held the position of Director at Creative Movements Arts Center and previously at the Boston Sports Club on the management team.

Graduating from Clark University with a bachelor's degree in Studio Arts, Jess has almost two decades of expertise as a graphic and invitation designer as well as an event planner and content developer for leadership and women's events. She held positions most recently as Director at Conferences for Women and IDC and previously as the founder of Whimsical Wishes.

We look forward to helping you create many sweet times ahead!
