EBJ Events

enuinely cared about every little detail and preference I had. She always took the time to truly listen to me and made me feel heard throughout the entire planning process. The day of my wedding felt so smooth and stress-free because of her and her amazing team. Everything ran beautifully and on time, and I was actually able to enjoy my day knowing she had everything under control. I honestly don’t know how my wedding day would have turned out without her by my side. She helped create one of the most special days of my life, and I will forever be grateful for everything she did for us! I highly recommend Marijose and EBJ Events to anyone looking for a wedding planner who truly goes above and beyond for their clients 🥰

ess. I have helped plan events in Los Angeles as well as Florida, and Jess truly stood out in terms of organization, professionalism, and overall guidance. From the beginning she helped us identify the right vendors for what we wanted to create and was especially strong when it came to negotiating on our behalf and advocating for our best interests. That gave us a lot of confidence throughout planning. Our two events were intentionally very different. The first was an outdoor celebration across multiple spaces inspired by our Bangladeshi heritage, which required thoughtful coordination and guest flow. The second was a timeless black-tie indoor reception that blended classic elegance with subtle cultural elements. Jess understood the vision immediately and made sure every moving part came together smoothly. One moment that really stood out was when unexpected rain required our day-two cocktail hour to move indoors at the last minute. The adjustment happened quietly behind the scenes. We did not even realize it until later, and our guests experienced the evening exactly as intended. As someone new to Florida, I also appreciated how approachable Jess was throughout the process. She was always patient with questions and made planning from a new place feel easy and supported. Throughout the weekend we kept hearing from guests about how smoothly everything flowed. For couples planning a large or multi-day wedding, especially a cultural celebration, Jess and the EBJ team are incredibly capable and truly advocate for their clients.

day of coordination. Leading up to the wedding, a lot of the planning was via a to-do list for me to get done, which was appreciated. They made my wedding day seamless, I had terrible weather all afternoon, but I had no stress. Jessyca, Kristine and Sara went above and beyond, helping with every little aspect on my wedding day. Definitely a great price for what you’re getting and I would trust them with anything event related.

went above and beyond, and truly allowed me to be present and only focus on enjoying and having an amazing time. The team was so friendly and fun while still being incredibly professional! We are incredibly grateful 💕💕

ly on top of everything. Every detail was handled perfectly, and she made the entire planning process feel smooth and stress-free. We booked her full planning service (with our venue already selected), and she handled absolutely everything else flawlessly. Even just a couple of days before the wedding when the temperature suddenly dropped, I freaked but she immediately reassured me and secured heaters for us without hesitation. There is truly nothing she can’t do. On the wedding day, she and assistants (Sara, Thai-Lee and Shurooq) made our morning so calm, joyful, and seamless. They anticipated needs before we even had to ask and kept everything running right on schedule. We were able to fully relax and enjoy every moment because we knew we were in the best hands. All of our guests told us how spectacular the wedding turned out — and it’s all thanks to her and her amazing team. We absolutely love her and are so grateful for everything she did. Highly, highly recommend!

had great recommendations when we didn't know what to do. Day of, she and her team were amazing. Super organized, professional. Directed us, the guests, vendors to where we needed to be each minute through the day. Yesenia, Marijose, and Logan all played a big role in giving us a seamless wedding. We couldn't have done it without them. Looking back, they were essential and we would highly recommend them to anyone planning their wedding. We want to thank them from the very bottom of our hearts!

s so professional, organized, calm, and caring. She made the entire planning process feel seamless and stress-free. Not only was Marijose outstanding, but her two assistants, Josie and Miranda, were also absolutely wonderful. The three of them worked together so effortlessly as a team, anticipating every need before it even came up. They were always one step ahead, making sure every detail was perfect and that we felt completely taken care of. One of the assistants stayed by my side the entire wedding day, and I honestly don’t know what I would have done without her. If I needed anything from upstairs, she immediately went to grab it. When my feet were hurting and I needed Band-Aids, she was right there putting them on for me without hesitation. She handled every little thing (big or small) with such kindness, care, and attention. Having someone so attentive by my side all day made me feel so supported and at ease. We received countless compliments from our guests about how beautiful, organized, and smooth the entire day was!! So many people commented on how well-run everything felt and how attentive and kind the planning team was. It was clear to everyone that EBJ Events truly operates at the highest level. Marijose’s attention to detail, communication, and ability to remain calm and positive in every moment made such a difference. She made us feel supported, heard, and confident throughout the process. Thanks to her and her amazing assistants, we were able to fully enjoy our day without worrying about a single thing. If you are considering EBJ Events, I wholeheartedly recommend them! Marijose and her team go above and beyond, and their dedication truly shows. They helped create a day that was not only beautiful and perfectly executed, but also filled with ease, joy, and unforgettable memories!

with plenty of options for different vendors. On the day of, Jess, Sara, Miranda, and Yesenia were there and they absolutely crushed it! They were attentive to details while also checking in on me throughout the night to make sure everything was ok. I was so calm and stress free the day of thanks to them handling everything. They’re the best! 

events!!

ing up to the wedding and on the wedding day itself. We truly could not have done it without them. A very special thank you goes to Janete. She guided us through every meeting, listened to us with so much patience, and helped keep us calm whenever stress started to creep in. She was truly the brains of the operation. On the wedding day, she made sure every detail was executed perfectly and that everything flowed seamlessly from beginning to end. Her dedication, clarity, and calm presence made all the difference for us. We also want to give a heartfelt mention to Tiara, who was absolutely incredible. She helped me get ready, supported me throughout the day, and genuinely felt like the wedding best friend I did not know I needed. Her kindness and grounding energy meant so much. Because of the EBJ Events team, we did not feel any of the stress that happens behind the scenes. We were able to stay calm, be fully present, and enjoy every moment. We both agree that it was the best day of our lives from start to finish. Thank you to the entire team for your professionalism, your heart, and the flawless experience you created for us. We appreciate you more than words can express.

tress about a single thing, they were organized, calm, and always one step ahead.  Very glad we hired them! Thank you guys again!!

opped up. She always responded in a timely manner no matter what day it was, which is not always guaranteed when it comes to wedding vendors. She brought things to our attention that we would have never thought of on our own. In terms of the day of the wedding, thanks to Leslie and her team the whole day went as seamless as we could’ve imagined. At no point did we have to worry about anything because it had already been taken care of! If any issue did arise, the team was always quick on their feet and came up with a creative solution. Leslie was also kind yet stern when needed. We couldn’t have asked for a better coordinator and team to help us on our special day! Thank you Leslie and EBJ!

planning team, led by Jessyca, along with Marijose, Sara, and Julio. From the moment we hired Jessyca months ago, she has been on top of everything, always ahead, always prepared, always one step (or ten steps) further than we even expected. Throughout the entire planning process, she kept us organized, calm, and confident that we were in the best possible hands. Every question had an answer, every detail had a plan, and every concern was handled before it could even become one. On the wedding day itself, the whole team was incredible. They coordinated every detail with calm professionalism, handled every transition seamlessly, and made sure that not only the event ran smoothly.  One thing that meant the world to us, they never left my wife, Nicole, without support. Whether it was fixing her veil, helping her walk, touching up details, keeping her hydrated, keeping her calm, or making sure she always had exactly what she needed. There was always someone right there by her side. That level of care is something we will never forget. The entire team worked with such dedication, kindness, and precision that we were able to fully enjoy our day without a single worry. They treated our wedding as if it were their own, and honestly, that made all the difference. To Jessyca, Marijose, Sara, and Julio Thank you for making our wedding unforgettable. Thank you for the patience, the guidance, the flawless timing, the kindness, and the heart you put into every moment. You helped bring our vision to life and made the day feel effortless and full of joy. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better team. Highly, highly recommended. Mark and Nicole

le and accommodating with our schedules, and provided helpful to-do lists and regular check-ins. We were able to stay on top of the planning and deadlines thanks to her! On our wedding day, Jess and her team made sure my husband and I were comfortable and that the day ran smoothly. Even with a tight timeline, we were able to do everything we wanted! At the end of the night, they packed all our stuff from the venue along with the wedding cake and desserts back into our hotel room which was a really nice surprise.

our entire wedding experience feel effortless and magical. Their communication was amazing, their support was constant, and their professionalism was unmatched. I felt so cared for throughout the whole process, and they ensured that everything ran perfectly on our big day. I couldn’t have asked for a better team. They made our dream wedding come to life, and I’m endlessly grateful for all their hard work, patience, and heart. Highly, highly recommend! 💕

fect. Even the rain couldn’t put a damper on our day with this team on our side! They handled every detail — from vendor coordination to the timeline — with professionalism and care, keeping us calm and confident throughout. Their attention to detail made our wedding feel seamless and truly special. We are so grateful and would highly recommend them to anyone planning their big day!

e assigned me Olivia.  But what she left out was that this was Olivias' first wedding by herself. She had NO clue how to handle any situation. Finally, 2 week before the wedding Jessyca agreed to remove her and put someone else in to clean up her mess. How is this PROFESSIONAL. My now daughter-in-law cried every day. Was completely overwhelmed by this whole situation that could have been avoided. Now you are posting pictures on instagram being tagged for a magnificent night that we pulled together.  But where have you been . Instead of throwing these girls in why don't you take a little responsibility! DO NOT BE FOOLED BY HER 5 STAR REVIEWS , like I was.  What a horrible, stressful experience, when you claim that your business will reduce stress and handle everything. What a joke,

having monthly calls to go over every detail made the entire process stress-free and enjoyable. When the big day finally arrived, I was a little nervous at first — but the moment I saw how many incredible people were on my team, I was blown away! Anything I needed that day was handled immediately. I wasn’t even allowed to carry my own luggage! They kept everything running smoothly, made sure the entire wedding team stayed on schedule, and even managed to diffuse the family drama I knew was bound to happen. The best part was that on the day of the wedding, I didn’t have to worry about a single thing. They only told me what I needed to know so I could truly enjoy my day. They even followed a detailed photo list to ensure every picture I wanted was taken — not one was missed! My family couldn’t stop talking about how amazing the team was and how smoothly everything ran. Huge thanks to Leslie, Sara, Eliza, and Claudia for going above and beyond. I couldn’t have asked for a better, more professional, or more caring group to make my dream wedding come true!

s for her events—so I already knew how talented, organized, and creative she was. When my original dream wedding couldn’t happen because of COVID in 2020, I told Jess to hold on to my deposit because one day, we’d still make it happen. And she did just that! Fast forward to our 5th year vow renewal week in Sicily, and it was everything I could’ve ever dreamed of and more. Jess made our vow renewal week in Sicily not just possible—but truly magical. From start to finish, she handled every detail with grace, professionalism, and heart. She went above and beyond to bring our vision to life, coordinating seamlessly across time zones, different vendors, and language barriers 😵‍💫 to ensure everything ran perfectly and flawlessly. Her calm energy, eye for detail, and genuine passion for what she does made all the difference. Thanks to Jess, our entire week felt effortless and unforgettable. Every guest was impressed, every moment was beautiful, and every memory will be cherished forever. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your event as if it were her own, look no further than Events by Jess! She’s simply the best! 🌸

nd solve problems quickly when our outdoor ceremony had to get moved due to the rain was so impressive. It was the best day ever and we wouldn’t change a thing thanks to Leslie’s organized and calm manner. She is especially incredible creating content and making spaces beautiful with her design touches. We love her and the whole EBJ Team!!

Can't help but speak so greatly about them and how well they also coordinated with our vendors. 10 out of 5 if I could!

even though some things could not be changed they did their best to accomodate everything so things will look just how I dreamed of. The day of the wedding everything looked gorgeous, stunning and the best part I did not have to worry a bit. Leslie handled everything that day and more, she was able to help out with a situation that was occurring during the time of the event and I did not even find out. She settled everything down in the hotel for us, I did not have to worry about picking up the gifts after or anything. I can say the end result was what Amazing!!! Thank You ladies for making this dream True!

end and she has consistently delivered time and time again. There is so much that went into wedding planning that I had no idea about. Both my husband and I work full time jobs and Jess helped tremendously in the process of wedding planning and during the different wedding events. She was reliable, negotiated, read contracts and went above and beyond. Due to our heavy work schedules, she coordinated timings for phone calls and took care of a lot in the background. Brides, if you are not sure who to go with, trust that EBJ and her team will have you covered. Don't even take my word for it, whenever we spoke with vendors they would say Jess and her team are fantastic and are looking forward to working with her again. My wedding was outside and in Miami. With unpredictable weather, Jess thought ahead for the game plan. She even called the weather man to make sure we had the most up to date information about rain!! During the events, Jess also had one of her team members become my personal assistant. Ladies, you have no idea how helpful that was. Her assistant Leslie, literally was fanning me and helping with last minute tasks. Her team is very organized and timely. We had all our wedding set up items labeled in boxes and they set everything up as I envisioned; even better! Indian weddings take a lot of planning, time, and effort and Jess and her team will deliver without a doubt.

their wedding, but just needs some help with timeline/logistics and more hands on deck for day of needs. On the day of, Marite brought 2 more planners with her, Leslie and Olivia. Olivia held down the fort handling vendors at the venue (and everything was set up perfectly), while Leslie acted as my bridal concierge. I could not speak more highly of Leslie. She took care of everything from fixing my bouquet to touching up my lipstick to holding our vow books, to even holding a snack for me. Marite acted as a liaison between everyone and helped keep our photographer on schedule and made sure the bridal party was where they needed to be at the right time. This team truly ensured my wedding ran perfectly; would recommend them to any bride. Thank you EBJ team!

n so smoothly. During our wedding, we felt like guests and not hosts. Could not possibly recommend Marite and EBJ events enough.

hoosing this company. I chose this company because of the amazing reviews it got from the Knot (which I don't know how), and this company RUINED the whole process for me. I booked this company and worked with this woman named Lesile Cordero for almost a whole year before my wedding and had to fire them 2 months before my wedding because they were SO unprofessional and DID NOT care about my wedding at all and would only reach out to me once a month and read off a list of "things" that i was supposed to do WHEN I ALREADY DID THEM. My wedding was in April and all during Chirstmas time their excuse for not doing their job was because "it's a busy time for them and they're working with other clients." Please don't let these reviews fool you. They also wouldn't let me take my deposit back so I paid them THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS for sending me only a couple of vendors throughout that entire process and reading off a LIST!!!! This company and their employee Leslie Cordero is AWFUL and RUDE and literally ruined my wedding experience. DO NOT BOOK THEM!!!!

s volumes as to how this business prioritizes their couples and cares about doing good business. Our planner, Leslie, took amazing photos and videos for social and we received them almost instantly after our wedding. She knew exactly how to manage our vendors and provided great recommendations as well as advice. Everyone on the team is extremely hardworking and respectful. They adjusted quickly to any surprises or last minute changes and questions with professionalism and calmness. More importantly, they kept us on track and happy. 15/10 would recommend for any event planning. Thank you again for making our little dream a reality. 🫶🏼

the vendors I used and be as honest as possible. EBJ Events is the first vendor I’m running to write a review for. I worked with Leslie and OMG was she amazing!!!!! I worked with a coordinator before I hired her and she scheduled a meeting with me twice and never showed up twice. Because of my previous experience I was extremely worried about working with an event coordinator but Leslie was incredible. She just got things done and made sure I didn’t have to worry about a thing. If you’re not sure you should hire a coordinator, this is the best money you will spend for your wedding. She arrived at the hotel where I was getting ready and made sure we were on time. She dealt with my family in the best way possible and never once came to me for any issues, but just solved everything and made sure I was being taken care of the whole time. The day of T’arra and Olivia helped the event as well and they were just as awesome! My event wouldn’t have been the same without EBJ Events. There was so much behind the scenes that Leslie did for me that I wasn’t even aware needed to be done like contacting all my vendors prior to the event and coordinating EVERYTHING. What an amazing team. My venue was very strict about a lot of things and Leslie was incredible dealing with everything.

r happened. Jess was very flexible with our schedule throughout the planning process (I work insane hours often very late into the night) and accommodated our meetings throughout the year accordingly. She was able to keep us on task throughout all this to make sure we had everything we needed and gave us incredible vendor recommendations that we are so so happy with from DJ to florals to photographers and makeup. They were all absolutely exceptional. Then comes game day- wedding day- and let me tell you I would have gone insane without them. Her team- we had Leslie, Tarra, Shurroq, and Marijose- were like a well oiled party machine. Marijose single handed kept me sane. She was excellent. They were on top of everything, kept the party going, kept us on task, and were even straight up body guards keeping guests away when my husband and I were trying to sneak something to eat in between socializing lol. They set up of the florals, Photo Booth, and cigar bar. Everything was just absolutely gorgeous and I can’t say enough good things about this team. We loved EBJ and would recommend them to anyone who needs help planning a special event. We know if we ever have another major event that we will absolutely want them on board. Thanks guys!!!

e hype girl of all time!!! She was with me throughout the day just checking in and helping calm my nerves. She was constantly making sure I had enough water and was just so fun to have around. These girls really went above and beyond to make my day amazing and I couldnt have asked for a better team. Your girls really were amazing and this company is absolutely amazing. I will never stop recommending you guys to people. Thank you SO MUCH!!!!!!!!

to the guest list and seating chart. Her team was ready for anything and everything. I forgot to put deodorant and all of a sudden T’arra was beside me with deodorant on hand! I can’t recommend them enough.

experienced not-so-great coordinators, vendors, and stressed-out brides. After many referrals, we decided to use EBJ as our wedding coordinator, and let me tell you, the team is amazing! Jessyca is organized, efficient, and understanding of the entire experience. She kept us on track throughout the day, making sure we had enough time for all the little things we wanted. She patiently listened to ALL of my questions, and many of our vendors complimented her on how organized and on top of everything she was. Not only did she keep the day moving, but she did it all with a smile on her face! We're so thankful for her. Alongside Jessyca, she brought her team, which consisted of T’arra, Sara, and Ilana. These ladies were awesome and really on top of every situation. They worked really well together while keeping me in the loop. I also have to give a special shout-out to T’arra, who was my bridal assistant for the day. What a wonderful person to have around during all the emotions of the day! She had all the right answers and helped prepare me and the photographers for what was coming next. She knew what to say when emotions were running high, and I genuinely just enjoyed chatting with her. I could go on and on about Jessyca and her team. One of my best choices was hiring Jess and her girls for my big day! :)

dor we hired was reliable and worked well with the rest of the team. Situations happened, because no day is perfect, but they were promptly resolved with no effort on my part. There was a delay in the kitchen. She re-ordered the timeline. She spoke with the DJ and the festivities continued. No one knew that there was an issue. Closer to the wedding date, it was determined that I needed additional day of assistance. An extra fee that was well worth the money. MariJose was assigned to stay with me throughout the day. She was amazing. I felt truly pampered. If I needed water, she took care of it. If I needed to go to the bathroom in my giant gown, she was in the stall with me! All my questions or requests, she was on top of it. She laughed with me at all the silly situations, calmed me down when my bridesmaid went MIA, googled how to change my name on my social media because I was so excited to be married! She was the most reliable bridesmaid ever!! She will forever be a beautiful memory of the happiest day of my life. I know it’s an extra expense on an already expensive day but it is the best decision I made. The only thing worse than having no planner is having a bad planner. I was lucky enough to know previous clients of EBJ. I knew the day would run smoothly and I could just sit back and enjoy being a bride. I wish the same for every bride and I hope this review helps you make the right decision for you.

d where all of the items were placed and saw that it had been turned over to the coordinator). Luckily bride was confirmed with the church that it was in Marite’s possession and had been left in the church by her. Bride sent screenshots of the church confirming this to Marite which was the only point in which Marite admitted she made a mistake. The married couple had to leave their honeymoon suite at midnight to grab the grooms suitcase, which had to be left outside in a bush per the church’s policy. 2.) Insisted bride pay to hire additional staff but then proceeded to dismiss the staff three hours before the event was concluded 3.) One of the coordinators had four hours just to set up tables (they were given labeled bags for each table containing labeled ziploc bags for each seat containing all the items required for each seat). The set up should’ve taken no more than an hour. 10 minutes before the reception started, Marite runs up to the bride, tells her she just realized that table numbers had not been set up and she didn’t know where they could be, asking the bride if she had any ideas on how to fix this problem. 4.) Marite went into the grooms bag without permission and pulled out a master bag of tips in envelopes and distributed them without permission/discussing with anyone (including her own which she absolutely would not have received). This led to tips incorrectly being given which were meant for the event the day after the wedding (even though every single envelope was dated by the bride) leading the bride and groom to lose $400 in unintended tips. 5.) Included the priest in a group message to wedding vendors. The priest reached out to the bride to let her know this was grossly unprofessional as the priest is not a regular wedding vendor, and something he has never experienced in his years of doing weddings at this church. 6.) Two days before the wedding, Marite (lead coordinator) became unavailable, and when asked stated that she was working on another corporate event and would be too busy until the day before the wedding. Just understand she will not prioritize weddings. Sent the bride a minute and a half voicemail complaining about her own life which the groom listened to and was in shock and proceeded to spend only 30 seconds answering one of the brides three questions that had been asked over the past 72 hours. 7.) had the grooms divorced parents pose together when it had clearly been stated this picture was not desired 8.) had a groomsman run inside to get the grooms grandparents who had already taken photos, causing a 10 minute delay in an already tight time window in taking bridal party and newlywed photos 9.) interrupted the photographer from running the photo list by trying to run the photo list herself, did such a poor job that the bride stepped in and had to call her own family up to coordinate the photos. It was clear they hadn’t even glanced at the photo list prior to starting to call up the family members which had led to this chaos. This led to two families on the grooms side, not having their picture taken with the bride and groom. 10.) Per one of the vendors, Marite was extremely rude to all of the vendors and started off the wedding day by telling all the vendors that she was going to “yell at all of them today”.

to answer any questions and give suggestions. My daughter lives in NC and her husband in MA and the wedding and me were in Miami, FL, so her coordination was invaluable. On the day of she kept everything running smoothly and on time. Marite had told me that her goal was for me to have a glass of champagne in my hand and enjoy the day. That is exactly what happened. I thank her from the bottom of my hear!

ream, they doubled up as babysitters for my 3 yr old, made sure champagne was in hand, and I just did not worry about a thing. My day would not have been as seamless if I did not have them by my side. The Weber family appreciates you guys beyond!

through the timeline, offering great suggestions and knowing exactly what needed to be done. I always felt confident that she had everything under control, which allowed me to relax during the stressful month leading up to our wedding. On the big day, I had zero stress because I knew Marite and her team were managing every detail. She ensured our wedding day ran smoothly, and that everything turned out exactly how we envisioned/planned it. The entire day was flawless. Our families couldn’t stop praising Marite and her team for being so organized, professional, and helpful. Our wedding wouldn’t have been as perfect as it was without Marite and her team! I can’t thank them enough for making all my wedding dreams come true and for going above and beyond. A special thank you to MariJose for being with me all day and assisting with everything I needed!

wedding planning journey, Jess was incredibly organized and provided us with a detailed to-do list with deadlines. Our regular check-ins with her kept us on track and she was always available to answer any questions we had. Jess also provided excellent vendor recommendations, and all of the vendors we used were top-notch. The day-of execution was truly flawless. Jess, Leslie, Olivia, Eliza, and Logan were all incredibly helpful and professional. Leslie seamlessly managed the rehearsal dinner and brunch, ensuring everything ran smoothly from setup to cleanup. On the wedding day, the entire team was incredibly attentive and proactive, anticipating our needs and ensuring everything went according to plan. Their positive energy and can-do attitude were contagious. They were always there to lend a hand, offer support, and make sure we felt relaxed and comfortable throughout the entire day. We couldn't have asked for a better team to help us bring our dream wedding to life. We highly recommend Jess and her team to any couple planning their wedding. Their expertise, professionalism, and dedication are truly exceptional.

er and she DELIVERED. After getting her caught up on all of the planning I had done throughout the past year, Marite took the reigns in bringing my vision to life. She organized all of the vendors, created the most detailed timeline, and made sure the rehearsal dinner, welcome party, and wedding day ran smoothly. Leslie and Marite were my hype women the entire day, calming my nerves and making sure I had everything I needed so that I could focus on marrying the love of my life. Rudy helped my parents with everything that day so they could truly live in the moment. Marite has become like family and I could not be more thankful I trusted her with the most important day of my life. If you are looking for a planner - hire EBJ and request Marite!!!
