The calm in the chaos — truly made our day magical

From the very beginning, Jen brought a sense of calm and confidence to our wedding planning process. While she was technically our day-of coordinator, she jumped in to support us a full month before the wedding — helping with logistics, vendor coordination, and keeping everything organized and on track. On the big day, she was so attentive, perceptive, and incredibly grounded. She understood the nuances of our family dynamics without needing much direction and handled every moment with grace. I was completely comfortable handing off all vendor communication to her, which allowed me to truly enjoy the day. She listened carefully, wrote things down, and followed through — often within minutes. Her assistants were kind, proactive, and professional, which only added to the sense of trust and ease. Everything felt seamless and intentional. Her communication was clear and efficient, and I genuinely appreciated her adaptability, warmth, and thoughtful attention to all the details — even the ones I didn’t know I needed help with. She didn’t just help us execute a timeline — she helped bring our vision to life. We couldn't imagine our day without her.
Highly Recommend!!

We cannot say enough good things about Jennifer as our wedding planner! After a challenging experience with another planner, Jennifer stepped in just a month before our wedding, and from the very first conversation, it was clear she was everything we needed. She immediately helped us get back on track and relieved a lot of stress. On the wedding day, it felt like we had a friend there helping us through it all. She’s super organized, kind, and genuinely amazing at what she does. We would wholeheartedly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a planner. We just wish we had more time working with her, but we are so grateful for the time we had. She's the best!!
