There are not enough words to say how AMAZING Jessica is!! Because of her, our wedding was the fairytale that we’ve always dreamed of. She made everything come together exactly as ...
we’d imagined! Jessica is incredibly organized and knowledgeable about the wedding industry. She has many known vendors to fit your budget and she is willing to vet new vendors if needed! She dealt with most of the contact between vendors and the venue - yay for fewer emails! We don’t even know how Jessica worked her magic on the wedding weekend between setting up, arranging everyone, making sure my husband and I didn’t see each other before , creating the day of schedule, and transporting everything needed for set-up. I’m not exaggerating when I say we couldn’t have done this without Jessica! There were so many things we would have forgotten without Jessica’s attention to detail and knowledge a good example is what the wedding party was going to eat for breakfast/lunch day of! Totally would have forgotten to plan that! Highly highly recommend!
Stop what you’re doing and hire Jessica for your wedding! She is incredibly organized, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. She made sure we had all of our final preparation...
s finished on a timely schedule and she attended our final meeting with the venue to make sure everything was perfect.
The timeline she created for the day was amazing, and she truly made the big day go as smooth as possible.
Another great perk was the use of her wedding decoration/reception inventory. It was incredibly helpful (not to mention cost effective) to use things like picture frames, votive candles, etc instead of having to buy them.
Not only did I love her, but both my family and my husband’s family had nothing but amazing things to say about working with and interacting with her during the wedding.
We can’t thank Jessica and her team enough!
We started working with Jessica about 14 months before our big day and were immediately blown away by how organized, professional and kind she was. Those traits remained in place t...
hroughout months of indecisiveness (me), general stress (also me) and last minute issues that required quick thinking (our venue). With Jessica's help and guidance we were able to throw the wedding of our dreams and have received endless complements about how seamless the evening flowed. Jessica was a huge asset to us during the whole process and we are forever grateful for her patience and support! Wedding planning is HARD but Jessica made it painless and you will not regret having her on your team!
We recently had the pleasure of working with Jessica for our special day, and we cannot express enough how grateful we are for her incredible skills and expertise. From the moment ...
we met her, it was evident that we had found someone that we would work amazing with.
Jess was super organized! She kept us on track, ensuring that every detail was planned and executed flawlessly. She is super detail oriented and we felt confident in her ability to handle any situation that arose.
One of the aspects that truly impressed us was her ability to connect us with exceptional vendors. She understood our vision and introduced us to professionals who not only matched our style and preferences but also had personalities that we instantly clicked with. Thanks to her recommendations, our wedding was filled with vendors who not only delivered outstanding services but also felt like a natural extension of our wedding party.
Family dynamics can be challenging to navigate during wedding planning, but she handled them with grace and finesse. She took the time to understand our family dynamics, ensuring that everyone felt included and valued throughout the entire process.
We had a vision in our minds, and Jessica took our ideas and turned them into reality. Her creative flair, coupled with her great taste, transformed our venue into the modern, fairytale, garden setting we dreamed of. It was truly a magical experience, thanks to her visionary approach.
Working with Jessica was an absolute joy. Her professionalism, dedication, and warm personality made the entire planning process an enjoyable experience. She was always available to answer our questions, offer guidance, and provide support whenever we needed it. Her calm demeanor and positive energy were a constant source of reassurance, especially during the hectic moments.
We recommend Amethyst Event Productions to any couple looking to make their wedding day truly extraordinary. She possesses an exceptional blend of organizational skills, vendor connections, and a keen eye for design. Thanks to her, our wedding was an unforgettable experience filled with love, fun, and beauty. We are forever grateful for the role she played in making our wedding so special.
Jessica did an AMAZING job as our day-of wedding planner. She was very organized, easy to contact and our wedding day ran SO smoothly! She brought our wedding day vision to life an...
d we are so grateful. Highly recommend Amethyst Event Productions!
Jessica is one of the most impressive people I've ever worked with, whether it be in my profession or through wedding planning. She was detail-oriented and thorough, and did a terr...
ific job of reigning the bridal party in during rehearsal and on the wedding day. She also made sure that my groom and I ate, had dessert, and wiped stains off my dress.
She was so supportive in translating our ideas to our vendors and pushing back on any unreasonable requests or incompetent service from vendors. We were able to turn to her for anything - from whether our table linens looked good with our napkins to vendor gratuity rates - and she would often offer further support for our original ask, taking initiative to go above and beyond.
We had THE BEST experience working with Jessica from Amethyst Event Productions! During the whole wedding process, Jessica made us feel so at ease about all the tasks leading up to...
our wedding. Right from the start, Jessica was friendly, helpful, and professional!
Jessica was amazing about checking in and making sure we were always on track in our planning. Her communication was AMAZING! She always responded promptly to any questions we had and was always proactive about reaching out to us when deadlines were approaching. It felt like we were always a priority and that Jessica was fully invested in helping us have an amazing wedding day.
Jessica helped us communicate with our vendors. She not only coordinated vendor load in and strike, but she also read over the language of all of our vendor contracts prior to signing and helped get all of our certificates of insurance.
I truly felt like I never had to worry throughout our wedding planning! Jessica was always there to support, problem-solve, and offer sage advice. She truly helped us bring our wedding vision to life and always had our backs! On the day of the wedding, Jessica had the perfect balance of being calm and cool but also really knew how to get things done! At the end of the night, she made sure all of our items were packed away and made it home with us.
Jessica is a gem! She's friendly, honest, professional, and SO organized. 100% recommend working with Amethyst Event Productions for your wedding! Thank you Jessica for your hard work. We had the best wedding day!
We are forever grateful for everything that Jessica has done for us from our first conversation to the very end of our wedding night. Our vision and dream for our wedding came to l...
ife and that was all thanks to Jessica’s help. She made the wedding planning process easier for us and eased a lot of wedding stress. We couldn't have done it without her. We still have people calling us and telling us what a beautiful wedding we had and how amazing Jessica was during our wedding day. It meant the world to us.
Jessica was amazing to work with during our wedding planning process! We used her services for wedding management (day of-planning) and could not be happier that we chose Amethyst ...
Event Productions. Jessica helped us make our wedding day better than we could have ever imagined. She is responsive, helpful, calm, and so knowledgable. We loved how the package had AEP taking over the wedding planning process 8 weeks ahead of our wedding date. This made the process so easy for us and reduced so much stress. We cannot recommend AEP enough!
From start to finish Jessica made us feel at home. Her passion, her organization and her approach were absolutely top notch. We actually had several vendors say that she was one of...
the best they have ever dealt with. Thank you for taking such good care of us and for helping make our wedding a special day!!! Can’t recommend Amethyst Event Productions enough.
Words cannot express our gratitude for Jessica! We wanted color and "WOW-FACTOR" for our wedding and she gave us just that! Jessica and her team executed our vision and the wedding...
spoke to our personality and spoke to our guests as a wedding that they'll never forget! If you think you don't need a top-notch wedding planner, think again and if you think you can go with just anyone...well THINK AGAIN! Jessica is professional, creative, attentive, generous, and we are incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to work with her. Jessica always made us feel that everything was 100% under control and even during the "stressful times," we didn't sweat it, because she knew how to handle it! Jessica respected our input and added her special designer eye to our ideas for our big wedding. From the first meeting to the day of our wedding, everything ran so smoothly. Jessica introduced us to amazing vendors, and we also had some of our own, who all said that she was a pleasure to work with, very organized and on top of it! She also planned my bridal shower and really did a fantastic job of making it so beautiful that so many of my friends couldn't stop talking about it for the following weeks! We enjoyed working with her so much that we plan to use Jessica for future events, like birthday parties, baby showers, bar/bat-mitzvahs and whatever else the future holds. We're all about making moments and memories and Jessica did just that for us through our wedding journey and big wedding day!
I had the opportunity to work with Jessica of Amethyst Event Productions for our wedding this past October. Deciding to work with her was the best decision we made! My partner and ...
I were having a hard time knowing where to start, so we decided to reach out to Jessica. She did an amazing job of asking all the right questions to help us make decisions and choose vendors. Everything came together so smoothly on our wedding day. Jessica and her team made sure that everything was taken care of, making for a relaxing and stress-free day. We had the best time with our guests!
Jessica was such a pleasure to work with: super organized, friendly, knowledgeable, and patient. Highly recommend Jessica/AEP to anyone who is looking to plan an event and needs some guidance.
Thank you for all your help Jessica!
I am a makeup artist who was contacted by Jessica on behalf of a bride. First and foremost Jessica and her team are amazing they are on top of every detail you can imagine. Being a...
vendor in the wedding industry you will meet so many people and Jessica and her group are by far the kindest and experts at all things weddings. I would absolutely recommend Jessica and her team.
My husband and I had a great experience working with Jessica Gonzales of Amethyst Event Productions! We hired her to plan and coordinate our recent wedding and rehearsal dinner and...
we don’t know how we would have pulled it all off without her! She is a true professional and is exactly what you would hope to find in a wedding planner--detail-oriented, responsive, pleasant, and well-connected. She kept us on track throughout the wedding planning process and connected us with great vendors! Jessica orchestrated and handled the entire wedding day timeline and handled all of the coordination with vendors so that we were able to enjoy the day with zero worries! Things went so smoothly and we had such a blast! I would definitely recommend AEP's services to any couple looking to plan a romantic and stress-free wedding.
Jessica was amazing! She was super on top of everything. If I had a question she was so quick to answer which I so appreciated. Everything was so beautiful and the day just ran ...
so smooth. I would recommend working with her! :) You will not be disappointed!
I had a great experience working with Jessica Gonzalez of Amethyst Event Productions. She was exactly what you would hope to find in an event planner--very prompt email responses, ...
easy to reach, pleasant, and well-connected. She kept us on track throughout the wedding planning process. Even though we had a micro-wedding, we still had to source a venue, photographers, officiant, rentals, florist, hair & makeup, and figure out what we wanted for music and AV set up. There were a lot of moving parts and we are wedding planning novices, so we needed all the help we could get. Jessica recommended excellent vendors and the day-of coordination went off without a hitch! I would definitely recommend AEP's services to any couple looking to plan a romantic and stress-free wedding.
I can't say enough good things about Jessica and Deniz! This year has been a rollercoaster of emotions for me and I tried to hold on to hope for as long as possible that my wedding...
would happen as planned. Jessica and Deniz helped me through all my Rona Wedding Planning Stress and helped give me options and creative ways to still have my dream wedding in 2020.
We opted to elope on our original wedding date and pushed our big celebration to 2021. The girls at Amethyst helped us plan everything and made our wedding day so special. They handled everything from finding a location for our elopement to handling everything on the day of the wedding; and they always had a solution for anything that came up. I'm so happy I booked them for my wedding last year and can't wait to continue to work with them in the year ahead. If you're looking for wedding planners I would definitely recommend these rockstar ladies!!
Jessica and Deniz are LIFESAVERS! My wedding was planned for Summer 2020 and we had to change our plans because of COVID. We opted for an intimate wedding and didn't know where to ...
start. These girls took care of EVERYTHING and thought of things I didn't even have on my radar. Not only did they help us find our vendors, but made everything go smoothly on the day of. Our wedding day was everything we could have ever dreamed of and we're so fortunate that we found Amethyst Event Productions. 10/10 would recommend these ladies whether you're looking for an intimate wedding or something bigger for next year!
You need to hire Jessica and Deniz for your wedding! They are the best in the business and helped our wedding dreams come true. They are very professional, lovely to work with, and...
the kindest people. We did our wedding in Costa Mesa, CA and planned it from Boise ID so communication was key. They always responded to me so quickly and were always on top of everything.
They are also very knowledgeable about having a sustainable wedding, which was so important to us and they helped us pull it off!
We actually got to enjoy our wedding day without any issues, they made sure everything went smoothly! Our families were so impressed with them and I got great feedback from vendors too. It was just the greatest experience and I’m actually sad that it’s all over and that we won’t be in regular contact anymore. They are so wonderful and we love them! Hire them now!
Love Moné and Mike
You need Jessica and Deniz in your life ASAP. These ladies are professional, kind, and beyond helpful. I booked with them about 8 months before my wedding as “month of” coordinator...
s. To my surprise and delight their help started as soon as I booked.
Jessica and Deniz were in constant communication with me and were ready to respond to any of my questions at any time. They were always super responsive – I never had to wait more than a day for a response.
Jessica and Deniz relieved so much stress during the planning process. Throughout every step they would be there with an answer or different suggestions for things that I was unsure of. I was driving myself crazy trying to figure out what kind of details I could add to my place settings and they provided some suggestions that I had never considered. On the day of the wedding, they had seemed to carry around everything I could’ve possibly needed. I swear that every time I asked for something it just magically appeared.
Not only were they extremely helpful creating a day of timeline and organizing everything with all of our vendors but they also hung a neon sign we had rented to complete my vibe. They also PICKED UP MY WEDDING DRESS THE DAY OF MY WEDDING. My husband “jokes” that after meeting them and seeing everything that they did for us, he doesn’t feel so guilty about making so few decisions. They made everything feel so easy and effortless. For that I can’t thank them enough.
After everything, I feel like they could be my good friends. Luckily for me, my cousin booked them for March and I get to see them again very soon!
Jessica and Deniz... we are forever grateful to both of you amazing and wonderful ladies. You are true professionals! Both of you went above and beyond for our wedding and made sur...
e we were worry free throughout our special day. Honestly, we do not know what we would have done without the both of you. From the moment we hired you, our stress and worry levels disappeared. They were in constant communication with us and our vendors before and during the wedding. They were always available whenever we needed them and always very attentive to our needs. (cough cough groomzilla). Not once did they make us doubt our decision to hire them and they always made sure we were happy.
Funny story, Jessica and Deniz were both working at the Venue that we selected for our wedding reception before we hired them as our coordinators. We initially met with Jessica when we first toured the venue and she was always very kind and professional. To be honest, the main reason we selected our venue was because of her. Later on, they left the venue and we were incredibly fortunate enough to be able to hire Amethyst Event Productions to coordinate our Wedding. We were very happy to hire them as we knew that our special day could not have been as special if it was not for them.
Needless to say, our wedding day was perfect and amazing because of Jessica and Deniz. We cannot thank them enough for all of the hard work that they put in to making our day magical and memorable. You are truly in great hands with them.
Thank you ladies for everything!
Yesenia and José
These girls were amazing. I don't know where to start. I contacted Jessica and Deniz after I was recently engaged, dazed and confused because of course I had a idea of what I wante...
d for my wedding but absolutely noooo idea how to start. These girls from the beginning were extremely professional, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. I can't express enough how much I appreciate them. I can't express how much attention to detail they have, and in the end they truly felt like family.
When it came to the day of the event they were on it. From checking in with the other services to making sure that everything stayed according to the timeline. I COULDN'T have asked for a better team to envision this day with, and I will definitely be using them again for any future needs. You won't be disappointed ♥️
Deniz and Jessica were so helpful in making sure our wedding day went smoothly! They started working on the details of our wedding even sooner than they were contracted to. Right a...
way they sent me a customized wedding checklist with details and key dates from my contracts. Since I hired them for day of coordination, most of the wedding details were outlined in a document I created. Deniz & Jessica were very detailed and accurately input all of the information into their simplified wedding intake form and timeline, making for a smooth transition. I felt this was really great service and I have noticed that most vendors do not provide this convenience to their clients. Throughout the planning process they responded to emails in a timely fashion. They handled communications with my vendors so I needed to contact them for my requests. They offered helpful schedule suggestions for our bridal party photos. Based on their suggestion, I hired TaskRabbit for my floral delivery instead of using Uber and the process was seamless and way less stressful. It was important to me that my bridal party was on schedule during our wedding weekend so they helped me send text reminders to them about event timing and attire. I gave them the painfully time consuming task of organizing 100s very delicate place cards and they made it happen! They helped set out florals and other design items. They even helped hang our neon sign during a room flip of the ballroom. At the end of the night, all my items were neatly packed up similar to the way I gave them and loaded into cars at the end of the night. The following day they sent me an email with a recap of the important things we needed to be aware of or follow up on from the wedding. They even mailed us a nice card after our wedding! Deniz & Jessica’s services were reasonably priced and were worth every penny!
We recently had a pleasure of working with 2 amazing Human Beings, Jessica & Deniz. They were amazing to work with and did everything on point. From the beginning planning process ...
to the day of coordination, everything was flawless.
Highly recommended if you want to plan your dream day.
Words cannot begin to express how thankful my husband and I are for Deniz and Jessica. They were an absolute dream to work with and killed it on the wedding day! From our initial p...
hone consult to the weeks leading up to the wedding to the big day, they were on top of it all. We hired them to be the month of Wedding Coordinators but they really jumped in right away, sending me reminders and guidance, checking in on my progress and offering support when needed. They immediately connected with all of our vendors, created an amazingly detailed and well thought out timeline, guided my cousin through the officiating process and really went to bat for us with difficult vendors. If that isn't convincing enough, our florist was a no-show on the wedding day...that meant no bridal bouquet, bridesmaids bouquets, corsages, boutonnieres or reception table garlands. Deniz and Jessica partnered with our venue and went to WORK all the while keeping me calm, confident and happy. They pulled off gorgeous florals and our guests were none the wiser. Honestly forever grateful to these two, it was such a pleasure working with you!
I cannot thank Deniz and Jessica/Amethyst Event Productions enough for the job they did with our daughter Carolines Wedding. We hired them to be the month of Wedding Coordination’s...
but from the moment we hired them they stepped right in and took over. The immediately connected with all of the vendors.. Venue, Florist, photographer, videographer, caterers, pastry chef, DJ, Rentals, Officiant, Shuttle service, hotels, Makeup stylist and Hair stylist. I honestly do not know how we could have managed the wedding without them. The wedding went off without a hitch and the day was more. From Dress Rehearsal, to Rehersal Dinner to wedding day, they pulled it all together.
I cannot recommend them enough. When you Hire Deniz and Jessica be rest assured you will be in wonderful hands.
Where do I even begin. If it were not for Deniz and Jessica our dream wedding wouldn’t have come to fruition. From the moment we hired them they went ABOVE AND BEYOND. From coordin...
ating vendors, creating a weekend timeline, directing the day, setting up the day, making suggestions, just everything, they really out did themselves. I am very type A and I have a hard time delegating responsibilities but with these gals I never had any doubt or hesitation. Anytime I reached out to them they would respond immediately, any worry I had they handled, any question I had they answered, they are truly amazing. I can’t thank these two enough. From the bottom of my heart I believe they are the best in the biz and can’t recommend them enough. Trust me, if you hire them, you will not regret it.
Deniz and Jessica were absolutely fantastic to work with! They have the perfect personalities for wedding coordination- chill, calming, but competent and top of it all! Jessica and...
Deniz were very available to me prior to the wedding, and sent gentle reminders throughout the process. Their reminders saved me from numerous potential "disasters" of things I definitely would have forgotten! On the day of, Deniz and Jessica MADE the wedding. They went above and beyond what they needed to do. Our flowers were a disappointment and they fixed them up and made things look beautiful. They were magical and anything we needed just appeared! For example, they assisted with makeup repairs on the spot (eyelash glue), and had a bandaid in seconds! And of course everything ran perfectly on time thanks to them! There were so many things I didn't even know about thanks to them- they packed everything up while we danced the night away. Thank you Deniz and Jessica! You were perfection <3
Deniz and Jessica were amazing to work with. I feel so grateful I had them on my wedding day. Not only were they incredibly professional and detailed, but they shared my passion fo...
r having a vegan and sustainable wedding. They were really knowledgeable on how to cut down on waste, while still making sure we had a beautiful and fun wedding. These two are the real deal! I can't speak more highly of them!
My husband and I could not be more thankful to Deniz and Jessica for an amazing wedding day. I had never even thought to hire a wedding coordinator until my venue required it. We o...
nly met twice before the big day but our wedding day was perfect. They both knew all the details to ask and kept us and our vendors organized. The best part is that they really stuck to our vision. Walking in to the venue and seeing how all the details became a reality was our favorite part. We had a somewhat traditional Jewish ceremony and we were happy that Deniz had a ton of experience with this aspect! We can truly say that our wedding was stress free and our friends and family had a great time. Lastly these two women really made us feel special on our big day. They are kind and genuine and care about their work and their clients.
Thanks to this duo, my husband and I were able to enjoy and relax at our wedding with our guests. We needed help planning everything from renting luxury portapotties to finding a b...
udget friendly floral designer, and they helped us fill in all the blanks. Then at least a month before, they took ownership over coordinating all those loose pieces to come together seamlessly. They are the most accommodating and committed team you will find. (And for the price of 1 you get two coordinators! It was a great deal.)
