Dandy Life

Dandy Life is a boutique consulting firm for hotels, restaurants, and event venues. We believe the events industry is not a one size fits all business; we tailor each consultancy to the unique operations & marketing needs of our clients. Dandy Life was founded by Shira Spiewak in 2017 after years of consulting for top venues and establishments in NYC. Spiewak began her career by re-opening Goldbar. She then launched Sweetwater Social as well as Bleecker Kitchen & Co. Spiewak expanded her profile as Sales Manager for Gurney's Montauk and Seawater Spa, where she was brought in to rebuild its sales office during commencement of a management partnership with LDV Hospitality. Since then, Spiewak has launched her own business as a private event and hospitality consultant. She has cultivated clients throughout Manhattan, the Hamptons, and several other major US cities, customizing their event sales portfolios, smoothing transitions, increasing sales, and improving customer satisfaction. With her company, Dandy Life, Spiewak currently specializes in curating and developing event sales programs for newly opened or in-need venues; organizing and launching event sales and operations, generating hype, and implementing new event management systems. Spiewak sits on the NYC board of SERV, Society for Event planners Restaurant Venues, and works to organize educational panels and mentor restaurant event sales managers throughout New York City.
