EBJ Events

r felt overwhelmed. She will do frequent calls and guide you through every decision! The day of the wedding was a dream! I was so happy and thankful to have Jess and Shalimar there coordinating everything! They kept me in great spirits and not once did I have to deal with an issue or answer any questions. Jess kept us in time and was able to guide our big, always late and loud Hispanic and Greek families!! Our families lived her and the team.. she made everything so easy and all we did was follow along and enjoy the day!! And she did all this while always making sure I had a drink in hand :) Shalimar was a dream the day of for all my stuff!! She never left my side, she made sure I ate, drank water, had a mimosa, got me gum, fixed my dress and the list is endless!! She was so sweet and helpful I couldn’t imagine my big day without her help. She kept me calm, laughing and took some great behind the scenes pictures!! The EBJ team is more than just a wedding planning service.. they become family, they made my day the most perfect, unforgettable day. There are no words to express how thankful my husband, our family and I am for everything this team did.. they are THE BEST!!

the best recommendations for last minute vendors, were extremely organized, attentive, never late to a scheduled call or appointment. Really just perfection! Lucy made our wedding day so relaxed and enjoyable. Can’t say it enough highly recommend!!!!

an go on and on. My event went on without a hitch. It was prefect. I recommend this company and specially Shalimar. Great experience!

reak, lol. I hate relinquishing control of things, especially important moments like getting married, but it was important to me to be able to be fully present on our special day and place my trust in someone who was experienced and despite my fiancé not “seeing the need for one” we hired her anyway, and it was the smartest move I could have made! Several months later the COVID-19 pandemic hit and squashed our wedding dreams lol forcing us to postpone to the following year. Jess was there to help me decide what was best for my fiancé and I and how to postpone everything. Finally the crappy year that was 2020 passed and 2021 was soaring by! Then 5 weeks before our wedding day, my original venue The Mayfair Hotel in Coconut Grove cancelled our event due to “construction.” We were blindsided and devastated to say the least. I called Jessyca sobbing hysterically and on the verge of a breakdown and she didn’t skip a beat, she jumped into “damage control mode” and asked me to take a deep breath lol and then asked if I trusted her, I remember saying “yes blindly” in between sobs. That same afternoon her and her team had made various calls to venues and we found one that blew the Mayfair out of the water, The Hotel Colonnade in Coral Gables. She had called and spoke to the team over at the Colonnade, explained our situation and asked that they try to match our previous pricing with the Mayfair! We ended up getting a phenomenal venue with a great price! After securing our new venue over the next few weeks leading up to the wedding Jess asked me for various information and details, she was super detail oriented and soooo organized, my fiancé and I were both so impressed! Then 1 week before our wedding the COVID cases started to climb back up in Miami Dade, I was petrified of another shutdown and postponement, but Jess would check on me daily and provide words of encouragement everyday up until the wedding day! The night before our wedding we met with Jess to go over the million details and items I wanted incorporated into the ceremony and reception, lol I thought she would run in the opposite direction when she saw the various boxes full of wedding stuff and she didn’t even bat an eyelash, she told me to let her handle it and to not worry. She gave me a few words of advice and “to just be present in the moment on our wedding day, to let someone else handle things.” FINALLY our wedding day came and I was so grateful that I had Jess, she was with me from the moment she arrived around 10am all the way till our reception ended! Anything I needed, anything anyone needed, her and her team were there! She handled sooo many things and people that day and so smoothly too that even my fiancé agreed that hiring her was one of the best decisions we have ever made. I am so incredibly grateful that she was there to help us through such a tumultuous wedding planning process and I would hire again 10 times over if I could lol. If you’re thinking of hiring Jess, do it, she will fight for you, listen to you, knock sense into you, put out fires for you, whatever you need she’s got your back and your best interest at heart. Ty Jess, Shalimar and the rest of the EBJ team for helping us pull off our big day!

etails to make that happen. Jess held my hand all the way and made it so easy. Also, my wedding turned out ABSOLUTELY amazing. She was able to guide me to my vision and had my back the whole way. Planning during COVID was hard, what was even more impressive was her can do attitude and preparation to ensure that special day proceeded without incident. The day of the event was even more impressive. Jess was physically there along with her team managing the vendors and coordinating with the venue. Her team was present until the very end. It was truly amazing and very enjoyable to work with someone that was not only extremely proficient but also very professional. I worked loved her routine phone check in’s and her checklist program. She put me in contact with vendors if I had an idea for something, would initiate the email, and they came with great deals! She handled all the vendors questions about the venue or things I had NO IDEA about (electrical, room regulations, etc..). I loved how her checklists kept me on point early so that I had everything organized or completed and wasn’t last minute scrambling before the wedding. If I ever had random questions, Jess always responded to my texts/emails promptly. The day of she kept me calm and made me feel everything was under control. She had her team staying on top of the boys for pictures while she was with us. She had a schedule planned and everything was on point with the timeline. When we were taking pictures she would set up the area for them, pop the confetti in the background, fluff the dress, etc.. She went above and beyond for us and my husband and I were very confident the day was going beautifully. She made sure my entrance to the church was perfect. One of my bridesmaids broke her dress, she came to the rescue and fixed it. At pictures, someone forgot their sunglasses, her team had them. It was all the small things that made such a difference. She went above and beyond for us and alleviated any issues that arose on such a crazy day- without her I would never have survived! I couldn’t have imagined having a more perfect wedding, it was everything I wanted and more. She made the day even go more relaxed for my mother. Jess and her team told my mom to enjoy the wedding and they did the dress change with me for my performance. My hair got a little messed up on the beach pics, her team fixed it. What really stood out to me was at the end of the night my mother started to go get the cake cutters, toppers, gifts, signs, etc (things I had asked her to bring to her room)…Well she ran into Jess to find out, her team had already done that and put them in her room for us. I lost the sixpence in my shoe during a dress change and had no idea, they had it and put it in the room, I was so grateful as I wanted to keep this. My groom and I especially loved how they left an extra meal in our room as well as surprise when we got up there. Jess did everything possible to make our wedding the most magical night of our lives. We were thrilled with how everything went - from the very beginning of the day to the very end of the night. Every suggestion she made was 100% right and not once was I stressed on my wedding day. I strongly recommend Jess and her team!!!!

nd on time for the wedding. The wedding day itself turned out to be everything I wanted it to be because of Jessyca and her team. They were super professional, amazing at their jobs, and perfect overall. My family, my husband, and myself are very grateful to EBJ events for allowing us to have an amazing wedding experience that everyone enjoyed. The guests were happy, my family was happy, and I was super happy. My wedding was also a southasian wedding, and Jess was super familiar with all our customs, traditions, and asked us questions so she could organize everything beautifully. The guests, my family, and my husband and I were very comfortable and stress free through the entire event! I recommend EBJ events to everyone, they truly are the best!!!

e to truly appreciate her patience when we realized that we couldn’t hold our wedding on its initial date due to COVID-19. The original date was June 1st, 2020 and it was scheduled to be held at an all-inclusive resort in Cancun. When we came to the realization that we would have to postpone, Lucy was extremely supportive. She reassured us that whatever we decided to do, she would be there to help us with anything we needed. After much consideration, we decided to forgo rescheduling the destination wedding in Mexico. This meant planning an entirely new event in Miami. Lucy’s experience and familiarity with venues/vendors were invaluable as we undertook this new initiative. During the planning process, Lucy was always very accessible – available to talk or text at any time. Her creativity and vision helped us come up with some great ideas for all aspects of the wedding weekend. She is very detail-oriented and organized. Throughout the months of planning, she kept us on track without making us feel overwhelmed. She even helped my mom coordinate surprising us with a photo booth at our reception. We ended up holding our wedding at the InterContinental in Miami, which was a beautiful venue. Inevitably, there were last minute changes and adjustments – but Lucy remained very cool, calm, and collected. Nothing fazed her and she always remained upbeat with ideas for solutions to any problems/obstacles that came up. On the day of the rescheduled wedding, Lucy and her staff covered so much ground, running around the hotel to get things for the bride and groom. She made sure our schedule stayed on track and took away a lot of the stress that normally comes with such a big life event. Overall, we highly recommend Lucy and EBJ Events!

ever made, and I will recommend them to everyone! My husband and I were the first of our group of friends and family to get married so we were new to this whole wedding thing. Jess, Lucy, and their team went above and beyond to help us not only plan our special day but make it everything we could have ever hoped it would be and more! We contacted Jess in 2019 after talking with other event planners and Jess stuck out to us. She was very personable and made us feel at ease. The second we got off the phone, I told my husband we did not need to contact anyone else; they were the ones! EBJ Events had our backs when we were looking for other vendor recommendations (photography, flowers, hair and makeup, DJ, etc,). Everyone they recommended to us that we went with were fantastic! Whenever we had a question, Jess or Lucy were always available. We were supposed to get married in June of 2020 but with COVID, we had to postpone to June of 2021. Lucy contacted and rescheduled ALL our vendors, got us new contracts with them all, and we did not have to worry about a thing. She kept us on track and at ease throughout our two-year wedding planning process. The checklist that EBJ uses is a life saver! It is so detailed and so easy to follow to make sure you do not forget a thing. Lucy scheduled calls for us with our vendors, joined our vendor calls and knew what questions to ask that we did not think of. They use a system called Aisle Planner which is very user friendly and contains all of your wedding information from guest names/addresses to creating your own custom floor plans for your ceremony/reception. Our wedding was at Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort. Lucy was there the night before to go over and take notes of how we wanted our décor set up and help us with the rehearsal. The day of, Lucy and the girls arrived and set everything up exactly how I envisioned it. I even forgot batteries for our LED candles and Lucy went out and got them for us. I did not have to worry about a thing the whole entire day. During the wedding, Lucy took care of everything and made sure we did not forget anything throughout the night as time flies so fast! They took care of all of our stuff and decor and brought it back up to our hotel room for us. We cannot say enough good things about EBJ Events. Thank you for making our wedding such an incredibly special day!

y before our wedding, I needed 3 of our signature drink templates printed and she was on it and got it done immediately! Hiring Jess was the BEST decision we ever made. She was on top of everything, and it made the last weeks leading up to my wedding more fun than stressful! She called all the vendors, created an itinerary for the wedding day, ordered pizza for the kiddos, scheduled our COVID test that was necessary for our honeymoon to Maldives, and SO much more. On the day of our wedding, she did a phenomenal job making the venue look absolutely beautiful and captured the exact theme and feel that we were going for. I truly could not have made it through the day without her! Jess and her entire team definitely took care of us and were always two steps ahead of us with whatever we requested. They were prompt, organized, professional, creative and best of all FUN! We were very glad that we had her and her team!! Jess is extremely well connected and well known in the industry and her knowledge made wedding planning so much easier. She was well worth every penny - we honestly would have paid double after it was all said and done. I highly recommend her to anyone and we cannot thank her enough for helping us create our dream wedding!

my wedding and my family STILL talks about how incredible she was. The day of my wedding she made sure I worried about nothing. Jess and her team set up my wedding decor EXACTLY how I wanted it and everything looks so beautiful. I did not have a wedding rehearsal and I am glad that I didn’t because it was not necessary. Jess did a great job at lining everyone up and giving them instructions. Any tiny hiccup that occurred she immediately took care of it. She even helped me with my wedding dress in the bathroom. If I needed ANYTHING she was there. My MOH had her newborn with her at the wedding and Jess would help my sister every chance she could. I’m pretty sure at one point the baby started crying and Jess stepped outside with him to not disrupt the wedding. This woman is just absolutely incredible and if you think that you don’t “need” a wedding planner think again. There are SO many tiny little things that start to come up as you near your wedding day that you wouldn’t even think of. If you want to actually enjoy your wedding day then a planner is what you need and not just any planner but JESS!

suggested the best vendors who were all very professional. Even with COVID restrictions I knew I could count on her. The day of my wedding I had nothing to worry about, her team was with me all day asking if I needed anything. I would recommend her to all of my friends!! :)

d candles on the tables which the guests were sitting at. Unfortunately due to the unpredictable Miami weather, we needed to change the outdoor seating to inside, as it was going to rain. Thankfully, EBJ Events made sure to relocate everything and keep everything under control. Because of EBJ Events, the transition from outdoors to inside was easy and organized. As for our wedding day, Jessyca and her team made sure to have everything under control. Neither myself, my mom, maid of honor or any others of my wedding party had to worry about any hiccups that may have occurred, as Jessyca and her team took care of it all. In retrospect, they made the day flow so perfectly— I had 0 stress which no bride should have on her day. They made sure to communicate to all the vendors our expectations, so that everything can be executed properly on our special day. Lastly, upon arriving to our room, all of our belongings (i.e., table numbers, guest books, wedding gifts, bride and groom champagne flutes, wedding cake, extra photobooth pictures), were organized and in our room. These are things you don’t realize you need to collect once your wedding is over but Jessyca and her team made sure to save us that additional task, as we kept the party going the rest of the night. They even surprised us with decorating our wedding suite with rose petals. I can genuinely say after reflecting on my wedding weekend, hiring EBJ Events was one of the best decisions my husband and I made. Most importantly, Jessyca and her team (Shali and Sofía) were great. Shali and Sofia made sure to bring the bride and groom some bites to eat from the cocktail hour and that we always had our drink of choice throughout the night. Those are the details that make EBJ events stand out from other event planners!! Overall, if I could give 6 out of 5 stars, I would. I highly recommend Jessyca and her team—she is extremely organized which helps on your special day!!!

) !!! I cannot tell you how nice it was to fully enjoy my wedding day without stressing about a single thing. Jess and her team had everything covered plus more. You can tell she has a passion for this industry and truly cares about her brides and their weddings as if they were all her own! She has every detail mapped out and immediate solutions to any questions or concerns. There was not one thing that I would have changed about my wedding! She is amazing!!

and not to stress. I can tell you that I was in shock with myself the day of my wedding because I was extremely relaxed and not worried about one thing! I highly recommend Jess and her team to any bride that is looking for a wedding planner because they will make sure everything is organized and you will have the most beautiful wedding!!

ing COVID is especially difficult. To make matters more challenging, we were indecisive (especially me lol sorry Jess). All we knew with confidence was that we did not want to have a traditional wedding and we also wanted to make it a weekend experience! With that said, there were a ton of logistics, 4 different venues, 2 days of events, random requests for our vendors, and many last minute details. We actually changed our mind on the venue for the ceremony multiple times, but Jess gently guided me through it all. She even popped out her precious twins during this time! She never missed a beat even when she was going through pregnancy and entering motherhood. Also, when she saw the venue we were originally looking at for our reception, she nipped that in the bud! She said that she was just playing devil's advocate but I knew she was just looking out for us. She ended up sending me a quote for another venue we had never even thought about. We ended up going with the venue she recommended and I'm SO happy we did. It was definitely a game changer and we did not sacrifice the aesthetics of the wedding that I was looking; not to mention it was wayyy better on our budget. When it came to crunch time (almost a month out from our big day) she was firm and straightforward with me which I desperately needed! She texted me a few links to items I needed for the wedding and she just said, "here, I sent you the link, buy this." She not only picked up on my style and knew what I would like, but she also made it super easy for me; it was exactly what I needed. And Jess shines day of! On the morning of my wedding, I felt comfortable and relaxed. At that point, I felt that the rest of the day was out of my hands. All the planning was done and we had arrived on the big day. And I felt so confident in Jess and that she was going to take care of everything. Not only did I feel like the day was going to run smoothly but I felt like Jess took care of me and Mike; I felt like she protected us. She made sure we ate, she made sure we got our drinks, she made sure we got everything we wanted and all the photos we wanted; even photos or moments I didn't even think I wanted I now have them to cherish forever thanks to Jess. She went above and beyond! During the wedding, my husband and I made our rounds, greeted our guests and checked in on them throughout the night; and in this environment where we make sure our guests are taken care of, Jess was taking care of us. Just as our couple friends recommended Jess to us, I am recommending Jess to you. You will not regret it!

now what to expect and gently guiding us through some of the final decisions and costs. On the day of the wedding, she walked in to the room and I already felt I had known her forever and she was just my girl getting ready with me. She handled some crazy last minute details thrown at her like the weather-induced venue change to allowing us to bring our pup to walk the groom down the aisle. She never once was flustered or stressed or worried or tense. It was like Jess walked in to the room and said ‘here, let me take anything you (both bride and groom) might be stressed or worried about’. Then you just give her all your stress and she absorbs it and you never see it again. She will keep you hydrated and remind you to eat a little in between your champagne. She will give you a big hug to privately remind you not to lift your dress too high because your spanx might show. She will whip out a tide pen because someone got lipstick on your dress or Advil if you need it. She will be your hype girl during the photos and while getting ready so you make sure you’re really feeling yourself. The next morning, my new husband and I felt totally bewildered without having her with us to tell us what we should expect next haha. We all could use a Jess, Shalimar and Jessica team in our lives all the time. I would have another wedding just have them with me again.

of would definitely have not been the same without her. She's so fun and has great vibes but was very on top of everything that needed to be done and making sure everyone knew what they were doing. My whole bridal party and family loved her as well. She helped bring my vision to life- everything was executed perfectly and ran smoothly. At the end of the night she made sure everything was returned to me and all was taken care of. She also took so many BTS photos and videos that we LOVED going through the next day. I highly highly recommend her!! Best decision ever- we were able to truly just enjoy our day knowing she had it all under control. Amazing and fun to work with! You need her ladies!

he worked through all the steps of wedding planning with us and executed everything with precision on wedding day. The mother of the bride said she would never do another wedding without Jessyca. The bride and mother of the bride were able to enjoy the wedding day because Jessyca was on top of our vendors, schedule, and special requests. Jessyca was quick on her feet when problems would arise and the bride and groom are extremely thankful for the attention, respect, and care Jessyca devoted to our special day. Jessyca was by our side through the entire process and the first person we hugged after our ceremony. We were the first couple to hold a wedding at our venue in Key West and you wouldn’t have known. Literally everything was executed perfectly. 5 out of 5 we recommend!!!

en I was ready to cancel the wedding 4 times. I am glad I didn't and that EBJ was the company I chose. Because of Lucy's planning and skills set, everything was so easy. Any stress I had was literally because of my worry due to covid. Thank you so much EBJevents and thank you Lucy!

was flexible with me as I already had the event entirely planned, but she came up with a day of coordinator package that was just what I needed! She was there since before set up to direct my multiple vendors and set up the various areas just as I requested. My day ran on time and without a hitch! She's professional and always appears cool, calm and collected no matter what arises. Plus she'll help do the bustle on your wedding dress ;)

oss Jess on Instagram. She followed up with me immediately and asked me some questions about my event and needs and the rest is history! She sent me some info, told me to take time to go over it but I was sold after our first call. She has a beautiful passion for what she does and how she handles her business. I was onboard with Jess for almost a year to plan my wedding in December of 2020. She helps keep you on track on a month to month basis with a very organized and user -friendly planning system and planned calls with her. She is very clear on making sure you know she is available to you with ANYTHING you need. She has been doing this for quite some time so she is able to recommend only the best vendors for your event. And best of all, she is very honest when you ask her for her opinion in regards to any details/decisions you need help making. As it got closer to the day of my event, she planned our calls about every two weeks and made sure to check on me and once again, ensure I knew she was there for me for anything that I needed. With wedding planning, people mention all the stress that comes with it, which I did feel beforehand for unseen reasons that were not within my control or Jess's (and even then, she made the calls to make sure things were taken care of accordingly). But, more importantly, when my wedding day came, I felt relaxed, excited, joyous, and a little nervous(naturally, lol). Jess and her team made themselves available to me from sunrise to the end of my wedding day. Her and her team are AMAZING!!! Jess, Dayana, Amanda, and Shali were there on my wedding day and were my lifesavers. Dayana stuck by my side all night to make sure I was taken care of - Thank you Dayana! And Jess and her team were hard at work behind the scenes making all the magic happen making my dreams become reality. I have not a clue how Jess makes it happen, but she does her thing and does it very well. There is not one thing I would've changed about my day other than never wanting it to end! Jess made sure my husband and I both ate, had drinks brought to us, and that we were satisfied with every aspect of that day. When I had a minute to look around, I was in awe to see how beautiful everything turned out and how her team really focused on every detail. Thank you so much, I am so grateful to have had you play such an important role for my wedding. And to anyone still reading this, what are you waiting for to book with Events by Jess? The clock is ticking people!

of it). She is truly the best. And her team is AWESOME! From everything to getting vendors to respond to me and recommending even better vendors than what I would have picked - btw all of my vendors were the best. To the last month making sure there wasn't anything that I had to worry about. To literally making sure that my ceremony and reception were PERFECT (and they were). I would 10000% recommend Jess and her team. My family, my husband, and my bridal party all loved her. She truly gets it done. 12/10 would recommend hiring Jess.

sure we get to eat, relax, and especially during COVID times, makes sure everyone keeps their mask on. She will ALWAYS be my go-to! ❤️

sure I received every single one, they even sowed a button that popped off at one point. I felt like I had multiple personal assistants catering to my every need. Absolutely amazing. The planning process was very smooth with Jess. She has a wonderful list of vendors, which were also a dream to work with. We planned my small wedding within 3-4 months. She’s bubbly, caring, and professional. I’d recommend her services to anyone. We were working with a small budget and I don’t regret at all the investment made into her services. Again, my wedding would not have run as smoothly as it did without her and her team.

hey are doing! She also has an amazing list of vendors to deal with that will definitely not disappoint! My wedding was amazing even in the midst of a Hurricane! Thank you Jess for everything!! ♥️

ing the guest list and dealing with all of our vendors and rearranging practically everything we originally planned. She handled everything with the utmost professionalism and care for my husband and I! We even dealt with torrential downpours just minutes before our outdoor ceremony and she made it all happen and we had a beautiful Wedding! Thank you to Lucy and EBJEvents for providing incredible wedding planning service!

spent about a month researching wedding vendors, making a comprehensive chart to show what each included in their packages and their prices. Jess was by far the most reasonably priced AND did the most. What really made me decide to go with her was the fact that she worked with me from the day I hired her, has a comprehensive wedding planning website that gives you a checklist of what you need to get done month by month or week by week and she goes over all of it with you and makes sure you're on track and helps you get through all of it (because wedding planning is no joke! you have to stay on top of it!) along with your budget, contacts list, timeline, just like literally everything you need to stay organized is on her website. The week of the wedding and especially the day she was SO on top of everything making sure it was all perfect. There were so many times that day where I though "I would have never known to do that, or things wouldn't have gone this way" if I wouldn't have had Jess there with me. She even pinned my wedding dress' bustle back up after my husband stepped on it while drunkenly dancing at the reception! She has this magically little fanny pack that is basically Mary Poppins bag of wedding day goodies. She even took out scissors to cut the little threads coming off my dress. Just little details like that make you realize what an amazing wedding planner she is! Her and her team collected all the decor and gifts from my wedding and placed them back in my hotel room so that I didn't have to worry about a thing! I recommended her to my friend who's wedding was two months before mine and she LOVED her as well. All of my wedding party and family also said how amazing she was and on top of everything. Again, I can't recommend her enough

he was my day of coordinator, she was still friendly enough to help suggest last minute vendors and give me some tips. On the day of the wedding, I was so nervous but Jess was there to make sure everything ran smoothly. I honestly don’t know what I would have done if she wasn’t there. I’m so thankful for everything she did and her professionalism and kindness. I truly can’t recommend her enough.

J. Their reviews were flawless, so we decided to see it for ourselves. Now that our wedding is done.... They are worth every penny, and they are one of the best decisions we made. The reviews are true, Jess and her team are awesome!! We actually enjoyed the planning process and the whole wedding experience, including the day of. I am forever grateful to them for making our wedding day truly special.

tically felt like family by the end of the night. You will NOT be disappointed in hiring Jessica to coordinate your wedding or function. I want to have another one just so she can put it all together for me again

even sent her team to my hotel room to assist me in any way I needed them! Jessyca promised me the day of the wedding the ONLY thing I would have to worry about was myself & she upheld her promise. To be a bride and say I had zero stress the day of my wedding speaks volume. Big props for Jessyca who was our personal bodyguard to make sure my Husband & I were able to sit down and eat dinner. There is no word to describe EBJ besides perfect. Any concern I had the two lines out of Jessyca’s mouth were “It’s already taken care of” or “Don’t stress, I got it. Just smile it’s your big day”. Jessyca even reminded us throughout the day to take in every moment. Jessyca is so passionate about what she does and it showed from start to finish! Would recommend 100% without any hesitation. Thank you Jessyca for making our big day one that we will never forget!

by my side every step of the way. I mean EVERY STEP as in helping me change my shoes several times from 8am to 11:59pm! We shared truths with each other throughout this process, we became friends. Not just a client customer relationship. All my friends all my family everyone knew who Lucy was! She gave me realistic thoughts and ideas without ever undermining or changing my visions. My “wedding woman” was such a source of strength and laughter through this all! She never let me falter she never made me worry and she always made me feel special and most of all loved. I will forever ever be indebted to her because we will never forget this night because of how epically smooth it went, but it’s perfection... a sole direct outcome of Lucy’s work.

saved me so much stress having Jess. We did a monthly call and she made lists of what I should be doing that month, kept track of all the expenses, and recommended vendors. There were so many things involved that I would never even have thought of. She was always responsive and had good advice navigating all the wedding etiquette questions. She understood my vision right away even from my nondescript ideas. She was there the day of and made sure everything ran smoothly and on time. If anything went wrong I certainly didn't know about it. She was not only phenomenal at her job, she's also just a great person that I genuinely enjoyed having around throughout this whole process. My wedding was everything I had hoped it would be and more, and all within the budget we set out at the beginning. I can't imagine how stressful it would have been without her. If you are on the fence about getting a planner, I can tell you this was the best investment. You probably actually end up saving money with all the problems you'll avoid. The best!!

s. Jess is extremely organized, professional, and knows and has access to a range of lovely and experienced vendors in the area that we never would have located without her help. She made our actual wedding day run so smoothly and coordinated every moment to make it a perfect experience for both us and our guests.

reative solutions for our multicultural wedding. We had the best day of our lives! We would recommend Events by Jess for any couple!

aking care of all the little details I didn't even realize would exist on our special day. I wish I could repeat the day over, and if I could, I would certainly love to work with Jess again!!

chose her day of planning package, which actually included consultations and vendor contacting before the big day. In the weeks leading up to the wedding day, she helped us set our timeline and find vendors when we were having trouble. The day before, she came to the house and did an in-person run through of all the vendors who were coming and all the personal objects we needed set out. The day of, she set those objects out, managed our timeline, and even helped trouble shoot the rain that decided to move in for the entire day. She and her assistant, who was with me at the hotel while I got ready and then helped at the house for the wedding, were out there the entire evening getting things done and ensuring that my husband and I could have the best time possible. And that's exactly what we did. Thank you, Jess!!!

have kept it all together like she did!!

t have to worry about a thing. She made our happy day run seamlessly and I wouldn’t think twice about hiring her again. Highly recommend Jess!

kids and the house or I can find the perfect person to help relieve all the unwanted and unnecessary stress that I would put my family and my self through. Of course that was an easy decision we could have made. I went back and fourth with a couple of wedding planners but ultimately Jess was the best choice! Starting from day one she assured me that she would have everything under control; from meeting with vendors to finding the right candles for the tables, the big and the small things. She was also a shoulder to cry on when I felt like my then fiancé was of course not listening to me or helping me with major decisions. Fast forward the day of our wedding everything was sooooo smooth I didn't need for anything my guests didn't need for anything. She kept my bridal party in line when they stepped out! Which is what I was nervous about, luckily everyone was so in the know with the timeline thanks to Jess and her crew. I literally didn't have to worry about anything the day of, we got to eat without being approached for pictures which made it easy to take pictures with guests while they were eating and by the time they were done eating we could join in on the dance floor and dance the night away! When the night was all done, i found all my belongings such as my cake, table numbers and holders, cake holder and even my cake cutter cleaned and placed in a spot I could find it easily. I didn't need to ask a thing from Jess she was already 10 steps a head of me. She is a professional and knows what she id doing, I couldn't have found a better person to help with my big day she is truly the best! She makes it look easy.

ia were by our sides from the beginning of the day all the way through the end to help us with anything we could have needed, even if it was simply just to grab us a glass of water. I felt like I could truly enjoy the wedding day with no stress and it was all thanks to Jess and Maria! I highly recommend!

eam for her month-of-coordination service, which I 100% recommend. She dealt with all of the vendors during the last month, smoothly ran our rehearsal and was absolutely incredible on our wedding day. She kept all vendors in check, kept the timeline moving smoothly, dealt with any problems which arose (before and on wedding day) and made sure my husband and I wanted for nothing. The best decision you can make for your wedding or event is hiring Jess and her team, hands down!

reat Jess was!!! 10/10 love her!!!

and the type of person who would work the best with my husband and me.  After speaking with several potential planners, my gut told me to go with Jess.  I knew when I first spoke to her she understood what I was looking for, she could work with Pete and my personalities, and most important, she knew things I didn’t even know I needed. Jess met with me over the phone and in person several times in the months leading to the wedding.  She is super patient and has great software that makes keeping track of everything easy, organized, and visually appealing.  No other planner I spoke with was anywhere close to being as organized as Jess.  My events spanned a Friday and Saturday night.  On the Friday, instead of a rehearsal dinner, we had a great welcome celebration and birthday party complete with multiple vendors, a cigar roller, caterers, multiple favors, gifts, and guest speakers.  The next day, she coordinated our entire wedding on a yacht where she managed not only the hired vendors, such as the magician and caricature artist, but all of the yacht staff.  She and her team were on time and made sure every vendor, person and item were in their place.  When I would ask a question, she said “It’s handled.”  There were several last minute requests from myself and my family and friends – such as placing multiple life-size celebrity cutouts all over the boat and giving every single guest written nicknames.  She and her team jumped right to each task, were friendly and responsive.  In fact, one of my friends, who acted as a guest chef, said he couldn’t have managed without her help.  When things got hectic, she was working with him, side-by-side – even though he wasn’t even one of the vendors she was there to coordinate.  He can’t stop talking about what a great job she did. I got married a little later in life, and while my goal was not to have a frou-frou wedding, I did want the vibe to be fun, comfortable, but stepped up enough that people who flew in from all over the world felt welcome and appreciated.  I just didn’t know how to get there.  I can tell you without a doubt, she was the reason why my criteria was met.  When I had trouble making a decision, she offered solutions.  When other people would suggest pricy items, she would deliver the same at a much better price and quality.  Her eye for the right amount of elegance and detail for my vision was right on.  She knows the area and the vendors well. My new husband and I are incredibly picky people.  We like hiring those who are productive, on time, and get things done without having to be reminded.  Not only did I never have to remind Jess about anything, she was always reminding me and all our vendors what to do.  My new husband, who can find a flaw in Mother Theresa, said he cannot think of one thing to criticize about Jess or her entire team and wants to make himself available if anyone wants to speak about their work directly with him. The biggest kudos were from the guests.  I was told by several people that it was the best and most unique wedding weekend they’d ever attended.  I could go on and on and on about Jess and her team.  While my husband was the one I married, she and her team made my dream come true!

, Jess and her team are honestly the key piece!! She goes ABOVE AND BEYOND EVERY STEP OF THE WAY!! Not only did jess give my type A self the peace of mind that everything will be taken care of but she's so detail oriented that she treats your wedding like her own. She is unbelievably knowledgeable about timelines, vendors, coordination and all of the ins and outs that go on the day of your event. I had jess and her team cover 2 events for me since I'm Pakistani and we have elaborate multiple day events. She knew exactly what to do every step of the way. Along with her and the team she had a bridal valet for me on both days, Maria, who did anything and everything I asked for. Her entire team was amazing but ASK FOR MARIA IF YOU REQUEST ANY OF HER ASSISTANTS and especially for a bridal valet!! I know hiring a event planner/coordinator can be a very skeptical decision making process but I PROMISE YOU, as a Pakistani bride where most of the events in our community run late as a standard.. on both days we were 20 minutes ahead of schedule. And I know before your wedding you don't think of the details but believe me there will be a million things going on that you won't realize the day of. If you're reading this, look no further and contact jess ASAP :)

xperience and Jess and her team took care of all the details. She is an amazing event planner and an amazing person. I knew it the first day I spoke with her. She is very enthusiastic and loves what she does. She always responded to our emails and texts. In addition to the amazing vendors we were introduced to, Events by Jess thought of all the major and minor details that resulted in a wedding ( quoted from many of our guests) " was the best wedding I ever went to"..."OMG...I have not danced so much!!" and "who did the decorations??...the room was so beautiful!!" Do not hesitate to book Events by Jess. Trust me...you are in good hands. Seana & Steven ( married July 13, 2019) Sent on 07/19/2019

someone as organized and communicative as Jess at the helm made planning a destination wedding from across the country and in a different time zone an absolute breeze. When it came to the day-of, Jess and her team made my husband and I and our families feel like royalty. We were so wonderfully taken care of from start to finish, I don't know if I'll ever have an experience of customer service like that again. She thought of every little detail so I was truly able to just relax and enjoy the day. We had the most beautiful wedding weekend and Jess had a tremendously large part in making it such a success. If you are planning a wedding in Miami, do yourself a favor and hire Jess immediately!

despite the fact that I woke up at 4 am on my wedding day with the full-blown flu, everything went according to plan all because of Jess (on my own i would have just cried myself back to sleep)! Per the Schedule, Jess was at my room at 7 am (maybe 6.50 am - i was so out of it) to help me prep for my Ceremony at noon. When she arrived I had a fever, a sore throat, a runny nose, super swollen eyes, a serious hacking cough and I was legit freaking out. Also, my wedding was in Bimini, Bahamas and the island had lost power and there was no running water to shower (yep #freakingout!). Jess was not phased at all - literally fearless! She sent my bridesmaids on a mission to get every medicine on the island. She gave me the medicine and put me back in bed with an orange (not kidding) and by 8 am, the water was back and all the medicine kicked in! Just like that! Honestly, I think the fact that she was so very calm allowed me and everyone else to also be calm. Almost like her demeanor enabled me to will myself to feel better and i did. So...that was the first hour of my wedding day and I wasn't freaking out (thanks to Jess)! The next hour included Jess discovering that my dress was still in the box and whipping out her Steamer, which she brought with her (such a good thing because the hotel laundry was closed) and getting my dress perfect. Next she tackled moving my bridesmaids along - it was so seamless! Like she just floated around and got everyone moving on their makeup and their hair. She should get an award for "Best person who ever managed Jamaicans and got them to arrive on time"! Like we live on what is called "Caribbean People Time", which is where Jamaicans arrive everywhere around 2-3 hours late. My bridesmaids and I got dressed, took a million photos (including my selfies with Jess) ANNND made it to the ceremony early enough so she could get everyone lined up, primped and down the aisle by noon! It was only later when my husband and I were reflecting on how we gave all our guests and vendors (yes, including Jess) the flu at our wedding , did we realize the scope of Jess's magic. While she was managing the women (and fixing my flu symptoms and feeding me breakfast), she some how managed the men (they arrived before the women #shocked), the cellist who flew in from another island that morning, the videographers, the photographers, the hotel bus who got all the guest to the beach early, the florist to decorate the ceremony space, the DJ for the reception all while helping me figure out how to pose for pictures. I truly have no idea how she pulled it off! Hence my previous statement, Jess is Magical! Aside from my Husband and I having the flu at our wedding (yes, I also gave my husband the flu), our wedding was more than I dreamed it could be and I give Jess all the credit for our amazing experience. Thanks again Jess for your patience with me who is always late (i.e. review 7 months after the wedding), for all your amazing ideas and solutions to every problem, for your thorough and thoughtful planning of all our events, I could go on but i have limited characters :-).

ated prices on our behalves, and took care of following up with the vendors and venue in the days leading up to the wedding. She also kept us on track with bi-weekly phone calls and to-do lists, so that we didn't have to worry about whether we were forgetting anything. On the day of the wedding, Lucy set up everything - decorations, table numbers, signage, etc. - so we could focus on getting ready. She even schlepped things back and forth between the car, the venue, and hotel rooms so that my husband and I wouldn't have to. Lucy did it all with a calm, kind, and genuine demeanor. Thank you so much, Lucy!!

start but she was there to take care of everything. We would have not been able to make this possible without a wedding planner and she was the best. So many obstacles from time differences to challenges with the language but she made it look easy. And the best part was the day of. Everything went without a glitch. She makes sure the day goes perfectly and you literally dont have to worry about a single thing. Thanks Jess for making my baby sis and baby bros wedding Magical! Highly recommend Events by Jess!

ng planning and in managing the day of the event. My Husband and I chose to do a destination wedding in Greece. This was no small feat for Jessyca, as she had to deal with not only language barriers, but time differences, limited Greek resources, and a "foreign" territory altogether. Nevertheless, Jessyca was able to communicate with vendors and achieve our interests while remaining within our budget. Jessyca kept my Maid of Honor (Big Sis) and I informed throughout the whole planning process, and successfully implemented a plan to meet all deadlines with ease and limited stress. The thing I cherished the most about Jessyca was her performance on game day and the few days preceding. She took care of EVERYTHING, so that I would not to to worry. As with all events, hurdles come up at last minute, but she nipped those problems in the bud. My nerves had me very sick the day of, and Jessyca took care of me like family. I am eternally grateful for her skill, kindness, and dedication to our wedding. She is a well-prepared professional, who is attentive to her client's needs and tackles problems head-on with confidence. Although a strong advocate for her clients, Jessyca is also encouraging and reassuring. I give 5 diamonds to Events by Jess!

recently got engaged and will also using her services for his wedding in South Florida) if he knew any wedding planners. He tells me he has been to a number of weddings where she has helped a number of people with weddings and multiple other party events. I went on to facebook and Instagram to look up her work and was instantly impressed because she has handled multicultural weddings from people all over the world. I’m from South India and my wife is from originally France and wanted to do a mixed type of wedding with our own cultural touch to it. Needless to say it wasn’t her first rodeo or south Indian wedding. I later found out my wedding DJ, DJ Pavan has even used her services for his family events. Pros: Wedding website – sets up with an interactive website that keeps close tabs of wedding costs and checklist to mark off things that have been taken care of and things to take care off. Meetings – both often on the phone, texting and in person as needed. Experience – She is married, (sorry guys) so she does have firsthand experience understanding what is required plus extensive experience handling other peoples weddings (multicultural weddings as well) Team – professional and down to earth and assists on the day of weddings. It was like having a couple of other Jessyca’s Vendors – introduced us to high quality vendors well within our budget such as photography (Organic Moments), DJ + decorations (DJ Pavan), videographer (Gamut Photography). Multiple more – you can send me a message if you need more info. I have many more good things to say but don’t want to make this review too long. Peace of Mind – managing family, vendors, hotel, or anything else that you can think up of. Jess can handle it. Cons: Nothing to do with her but I messed up not using Events by Jess for the Rehearsal. Jess reviews all the docs and things for all the events. I didn’t use her for the rehearsal party for the day before just to save a couple of hundred bucks. The food vendor (won’t mention names, cuz I ain’t no snitch) didn’t bring the food for a lunch event. I had to organize decorations, set up the club house and try to fend off a hungry mob. Totally didn’t realized how much work was involved with setting up a small party and how I was unprepared to manage it. This was the day before the wedding and I was exhausted but the following day I didn’t have to manage anything and thanks to Jess everything flowed smoothly. Well, let me cut this short and say I don’t have any regrets using Events by Jess and look forward to have her help us with many more events and friend’s events. P. S. – Hey Jess we’ll see you at Shon’s wedding!

a pretty modest budget. We started trying to do it on our own, but after the immense work of picking a venue and all the complicated contracts with scary contingencies, we decided we needed help ASAP. So, we started asking around and kept hearing about Jess. We set up a meeting, and it was love at first convo. She was the perfect combination of light hearted and fun, with the no-nonsense attitude and spreadsheet genius you need. She guided us every step of the way. Told us exactly which awesome venders were in our budget and was even able to negotiate a few discounts and package deals. She dealt with all the nightmare issues from both our venues, and even helped us with a last minute hotel debacle that had nothing to do with her services. But, we got to experience the absolute magic of her services the weekend of the wedding. We planned our rehearsal lunch without her, the ONLY thing we didn't use her services for. And...... needless to say, that one, small, 3 hour event without her help made us realize we will NEVER plan an event without her help again. Her team takes care of everything so you can actually enjoy the friends and family that came out to celebrate with you. If you're wondering if you should get an event planner, the answer is Heck Yeah! If you are wondering if you should go with Jess, my husband and I will never use anyone else.

ners and I just clicked with Jess and put my faith in her. She delivered and then some. Our wedding exceeded our expectations and they handled absolutely every detail flawlessly. Even when my veil ripped before the ceremony she was on it immediately before I could even notice. She sewed it back together and you couldn’t even tell. Thank you is not enough! Every last vendor she recommended was excellent. Jessyca and her team are worth every single penny. We sincerely mean it when we say that we would not change a single thing about our wedding. You will not regret hiring them for your special day. Love you guys!!! Nicole and John <3

il March 17, 2019 when the stress started to overwhelm us a little bit. Events by Jess, and specifically our coordinator Lucy joined in less than two weeks before our wedding date and successfully got on board with everything that was already planned and provided us with excellent service on our wedding day. I would highly recommend the services of this company. There are a lot of things you don't think of until the last minute. What if the chairs do not arrive on time? What if one of the vendors is late? Who will make sure our guests sit down before the ceremony? Who is going to let the DJ know we are coming in, so they can introduce us at the reception? All I have to say, is I was thankful for Lucy and believe she went above and beyond to make this day successful. And it was all done just days before our event. Thank You!

veryone spoke the same lingo but Jessyca had a no nonsense approach that really connected with everything we were experiencing. Within hours of contracting her, she had reached out to all the vendors, developed a timeline, and helped us sort through all the final details. The day of the wedding she truly shined, taking care of everything from shoe insoles to babies breath. Everything we could imagine and then some, she had thought of and taken care of. She totally read our family dynamics and integrated herself right in. Thank you thank you thank you Jessyca with a Y! All the best!

d never know it. We had steady communication the entire time, and she was great about answering any questions I had. Miami vendors can be a huge pain to deal with, and all of her recommendations were SOLID. She also handled the more challenging vendors (outside of her recommendations) fantastically. She's exactly the type-A, on-top-of-her-stuff person you want in your camp. Now, let's talk about the day-of: HOLY COW. This woman is a freaking pro. Whatever I needed, she was there to resolve, and she was unfathomably calm. I'm extremely anxious, and I can be a bit of a control freak, but very early on, I realized I didn't have to worry about a thing. Fussy relatives while getting ready? She kept them at bay. Rolls-Royce drove off with my purse in it? She got it back. Trees in the wrong place before reception? Moved on the spot. Nail broke clear off at the beginning of the dinner? Nail glue in her fanny pack, problem solved in under 30 seconds. She and her assistants were like guardian angel Navy SEALs. There was legitimately nothing they wouldn't have handled for me. Your wedding day is a really overwhelming day where you get pulled in a million different directions, and even if you're an over-preparer like I am, you will not be ready for everything that happens (at least, I wasn't) or have time to worry about the little things. Jess and her team always were, and I truly felt taken care of. I'm forever grateful to all of them. Three weeks later, I'm still hearing about the "best wedding ever" from our guests, and it wouldn't have been possible without Jess, Iliana, Maya, and all of the vendors who hooked it up. BOOK THEM IF YOU CAN! You'll thank yourself over and over.

loved; kept us on task and focused on our deadlines. Jess also recommended some great vendors (videographer, and photographer most notably) who were amazing and gave us great pricing. I totally believe this is worth the extra money from the “day of wedding planner” because she is a resource the whole process and by comparison shopping we got good deals on vendors! This savings pays for itself! Not to mention the quality of the recommendations!!! For me Jessyca’s greatest quality was communicating with us day of the wedding she does everything to avoid bugging you with small stuff; and is very organized. She kept us on time and the operation moving didn’t miss a beat, just constant! Her assistants are very sweet as well, they take direction well and were a great help!!!! She also managed our rehearsal which she was very thorough about, kept the wedding day as beautiful as we planned!! I would highly recommend Jess!!! Believe me if you shopping for a wedding planner and are this far- you need one! And Jess is it!!!!!!

r attended. Thank you Jess for making my day so special and for taking the stress away which enabled me to enjoy my wedding.

ht-shooter who can keep everyone in line and on time to make sure your only responsibility on your wedding day is to soak in every magical moment. Very affordable for the incredible value and expertise they bring. I can't thank them enough for all of the time, money and stress they saved us from. Hire Jess & team and you will not regret it!

ecks to executing everything perfectly the day of – she was just truly amazing! Her and her team never let me feel an ounce of stress and she was even able to tame my mom’s stress, which is a huge win in itself! She was so reassuring and thorough during the whole process, I never had reason to worry about anything. I couldn’t thank her and her team enough for all their hard work, everyone was truly a pleasure to work with! Thank you Jess for everything!!

n... but truly I can’t gush more about how easy Jess made our day. Not only do we highly recommend her to anyone planning a wedding in the area but we already set her up with one of our closest couple friends. She was completely devoted and completely involved in every detail to make our day incredible. Thank you for our perfect day Jess!

ould include everything we wanted and more. She helped us find the most AMAZING vendors and gave the best suggestions for everything (while saving us money at the same time). The day and night of our wedding could not have gone more smoothly. It was truly THE BEST night of our lives! Jess was always accessible and ready to help is any way possible. She made sure my groom and I had absolutely everything we needed!! Her assistant Lucy also made my wedding day stress free and was a great addition to the Events by Jess team :) I could go on and on about how amazing Jess and her team are! If you are looking for a planner- stop what you’re doing and hire Jess already!

. Everyone raved about how organized and stress free the day was, especially my parents and bridal party who loved Jess! Jess, we cannot thank you enough!! She is worth every single penny, do not hesitate to make this decision!

I ever imagined. Do yourself a favor and hire Events by Jess to help you out with your wedding.

into the vast (and, in many ways, overwhelming) world of wedding planning…but, all of that quickly subsided as we began to put our trust in her. She was detailed, confident and most of all…FUN! Jessyca’s ability to create genuine rapport was apparent. She listened, intently, as we shared our story and was able to help direct us towards vendors, ideas and suggestions that fulfilled all of our needs and desires. Not to mention that Jessyca was extremely connected and loved within the wedding vendor community! It became increasingly clear that my wife and I had signed up with the UNICORN of wedding planners. We are still in awe of her ability to maneuver thru all of the details, vendors, communication, etc. Jessyca’s follow up was appropriate, enthusiastic and gave us so much confidence. We looked forward to seeing/ speaking to Jessyca every time we would reconnect for our calls. I could tell immediately that she was genuinely trying to get us into the best place possible (vs push an agenda onto us). To say that she went above and beyond would not do it justice…We can only say “WOW” to the entire experience! TRUSTWORTHY, RESPECTFUL, GENUINE, EMPAHTETIC and PROFESSIONAL…these are the things we think about when we speak of our experience with Jessyca and Events by Jess. Its clear why she has such a strong reputation for being one of the Best Brands in the Industry! Thanks to Jessyca Perez, we had the “Wedding Of Our Dreams”! I invite anyone who would like to get a personal testimonial to contact me directly…it would be my HONOR to speak on her behalf. Grateful & BEYOND SATISFIED Clients… Jeff & Heidi Gamboa

er at least 6 weeks out and I’m glad we did. Her experience is diverse and her ability to roll with the punches is exactly what you want on your wedding day. Her team kept us to our timeline and communicated and coordinated effectively with our vendors. If you’re having a South Florida wedding, Jess is your girl!!!

ith all the things we bought and everything came together beautifully. It was exactly what we wanted. Thank you for your calm demeanor while dealing with a bunch of crazy, excited girls, and your commanding direction of a bunch wild, wound up guys. We would have been lost without you. But in particular, I’d like to thank you for attention to every detail and for making us feel very special throughout the entire night. When you said you will take care of everything, you meant it. You were a huge part of making this night such a great success. Thank you so very much.

every aspect the day of (and there was a lot going on 🙈). My words can’t describe enough how good, worth it, and expert she is. WOW! HIRE HER! I am going to miss this time I got to work with her, but my memories are fantastic.

pt everything modern and classy while keeping our older family members happy with just the right amount of classic stuff and her florist did an amazing job with Orchids all over the room. We can’t say enough of how easy she was to work with and how stress free the wedding planning came out.

nd beyond for us. We cannot thank Jess, Lucy and the team enough. Highly recommend!

in terms of getting back to Jess and I about questions, etc but Jess would always tell me "Dont worry, I got you" and boy, did she ever. Honestly, I know for a fact that my wedding would have been a disaster if I did not have Jess!! She went above and beyond and I seriously cannot thank her and her team enough for everything that they did to make our wedding perfect!
