I used Janie for my wedding and she was great. Very organized and professional. She also has great ideas and is super helpful.
Alex and I cannot recommend Janie and her team enough! We chose to use Edin Events for the five-month planning, but after seeing how much stress and work Janie took off our plates for those five months, we wish we had her as our full-time planner! We are so thankful to have had her, as there are so many things that go into planning a wedding that we had never thought of! Janie took care of all communication with vendors, created our wedding timeline, created our wedding reception layout, coordinated all rentals, reminded us of payments, set up/decorated our reception, and helped calm our nerves, just to name a few of the things she did.
Leading up to our wedding day, so many people told me that not every wedding is perfect, things go wrong, and I need to keep that in mind when setting my expectations. In all honesty though, if something did go wrong, I had no idea about it. I did not worry about a single thing because I did not have to. Janie made us so comfortable that all “worries” went out the window because we knew she had everything under control. Our wedding day was better than we could have ever dreamed, which is in large part due to Janie and her team. She genuinely cares about you, what you want, and bringing your vision to life!
Janie is not only a wedding planner but a friend! I grew up with Janie and even if you didn’t, you’ll feel like you did when working with her! Planning a wedding is a lot of work and Janie is there to help you every step of the way! She’s extremely positive, easy-going, impeccably organized, and works hard to make sure all the little details are in place for your big day!! Janie helped make our wedding dreams come to life with her eye for design, knowledge, and excellent communication skills! She organized all communication between our vendors and helped us find the best videographer!! Everyone worked as a team to help us have the best day ever!!
Last of all Janie and her team go above and beyond! They drove all the way from the venue to my house to get things that had been forgotten. My husband and I can’t thank Janie and her team enough!! Hire them and you won’t regret it!!! ❤️
I opted for partial planning with Edin Events & Janie because as organized as I like to think I am, I've never had a wedding so I didn't know all the ins and outs to make the day how I envisioned in my head. Through working with Janie it was like she could see what I pictured in my brain and made it a reality. All of my weird requests she understood and was supportive through the whole process. We're 30 days past our wedding and everyone who came is still talking about what a great time they had and how beautiful everything was. The two ladies she had helping day of were also fantastic and helped everything run so smoothly. From now on whenever someone asks me what they need for their wedding I will 100% say they need Edin Events!!!! PS- I saw people preserving their bouquets during my planning process and Janie offered to do that as well. She really is the best at everything she does!
I started meeting Janie approximately six months before the wedding and to say that it was life changing would be an understatement. There were so many things that I was unaware or simply did not understand when planning a wedding that she stepped in and seamlessly took over. She kept everything on track and ensured that we would be ready to go on the wedding day. Each meeting was well thought out and extremely thorough. I felt exponentially less nervous after each session and just by knowing I had her with me every step of the way.
On the day of the wedding, Janie and her team went above and beyond. The kindness and gentleness that they each extended to me and the wedding party was unmatched. They were also the ultimate cheerleaders. I truly did not worry about a single thing day of because it was easy to have complete and total confidence in them. While the wedding day was the best day of my life, I genuinely recognize that this was due to the guidance, effort, and involvement of Janie and her team. There are not enough words to express how amazing my experience was, and I hope everyone has the same pleasure and privilege during such a wonderful (but also stressful) season in their life.
We couldn't say enough wonderful things about Janie. She truly took our vision and ran with it! While I wouldn't say that I was the easiest bride to work with, she was incredibly patient and always reassured me in our vendor's skills! We had the privilege of using Janie for a full planning package and she helped us in every aspect of our day from telling our families when to show up to helping get stains out of the train of my dress. She is a wonderful planner and friend! We truly couldn't have done it without her and for that we'll always be incredibly thankful.
Janie is one of the kindest, funniest, most meticulous, and endlessly reliable people I’ve ever met. She is so good at her job, sometimes it feels like she can crawl inside your head and see exactly what you’re trying to describe. She is a professional to the umpteenth degree and a great judge of character in everyone she chooses to partner with. It’s very easy to trust her opinion on something because it’s so obvious how thoughtful she is about everything she does.
Janie creates a bite size structure out of the wedding planning process, breaking decisions down into their component pieces and building a strong foundation in the beginning to make way for a smooth process all the way through. My husband and I were wedding planning from out of state, but Janie made it feel like we were there every step of the way.
On our wedding day itself, Janie and her team were somehow everywhere at once. They made magic happen right in front of our eyes. My only regret is that Janie hasn’t actually been cloned yet so that she could have been both a wedding guest and the wedding planner. I hope that someday science makes that possible for us all! We are so grateful that we got to meet Janie through our wedding, she made it an amazing experience full of positive memories.
We cannot say enough kind things about Janie and Edin Events! From the get go she was positive, fun, efficient, had great suggestions and was so easy to work with. Even though we ultimately ended up cancelling our wedding celebration due to the arrival of our baby, Janie was able to make that as seamless as possible and was extremely gracious about that as well - kind of felt like a sad break up with someone cause we enjoyed working with her so much! We do plan to have a vow renewal in a few years and have every intention of hiring her back for that! 🙂
We were so pleased with Janie and her entire team. My daughter lives in another state and it would have been so difficult to coordinate everything without the help of Edin Events. While they were a tremendous help leading up to the wedding it can’t even begin to compare to the day of! I truly don’t know what we would have done without them. They were also all so very courteous, professional, and prepared! I highly recommend Janie and her staff at Edin Events!
I don't even know where to begin to talk about Janie, as my words will never express just how incredible our experience was. While wedding planning can often be considered overwhelming, we had the best time (and an even better wedding weekend!). Janie is a calm presence that eased my type A anxiety - she is always available for anything I would think of, but was also always 2 steps ahead. She recommended the most amazing vendors, helped develop my vision (which started as next to nothing), and then executed an event that was beyond anything I could have imagined. The day of the wedding, we did not worry about a single detail and had more fun than we even thought possible. We were in great hands with her incredibly supportive team, and our bridal party loved them. Over the last year of planning, we absolutely came to see Janie as a friend and will miss our frequent communication! I cannot recommend Janie enough for any of your wedding planning needs.
I hired Janie to be my month of wedding coordinator and she did an absolutely phenomenal job!! Janie and her assistant Bre were extremely capable, organized, detailed, and professional. They eased all of my concerns with running logistics on the day of the wedding and took over coordination with my vendors a month in advance. As a bride that was having an out of town wedding, Janie acted as my liaison and made sure everything came together smoothly. I cannot recommend her business enough!! She took my ideas and the decorations I had bought thus far and ran with them, we were so so pleased with how everything turned out.
Planning a wedding can be a daunting task, but thanks to Janie from Edin Events, our special day turned out to be an absolute dream come true! From the moment we hired her as our wedding planner, Janie went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was taken care of, and her dedication and willingness to make all of our requests happen truly set her apart.
Janie's exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail were evident right from the start. She took the time to sit down with us and genuinely listened to our vision for the wedding. Not only did she provide expert guidance and recommendations, but she also made sure to incorporate our personal touches and preferences into every aspect of the planning process. It was evident that she understood our style and worked tirelessly to bring our vision to life.
What truly impressed us was Janie's unwavering commitment to making every request happen. Whether it was finding a specific type of flower that was out of season or arranging for a last-minute change in the seating plan, Janie handled it all with grace and a "can-do" attitude. She went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding day was everything we had envisioned and more.
Aside from her exceptional problem-solving skills, Janie's ability to coordinate and communicate with all of our vendors was truly remarkable. She seamlessly managed the entire team, ensuring that everyone was on the same page and working together harmoniously. This level of professionalism not only put us at ease but also allowed us to fully enjoy our special day without worrying about any behind-the-scenes details.
In addition to her incredible organizational skills, Janie also provided invaluable advice and support throughout the planning process. She helped us navigate through the overwhelming decisions, offered creative ideas that we hadn't even considered, and provided a calming presence during those inevitable moments of stress. Her genuine passion for what she does was evident in every interaction, and it made all the difference in the world.
Janie's dedication to her craft and her clients is unmatched. She exceeded our expectations in every way, and we are incredibly grateful for all of her hard work and dedication. Thanks to Janie and Edin Events, our wedding day was a truly unforgettable experience that we will cherish forever.
If you're looking for a wedding planner who will go above and beyond to make your dreams a reality, we wholeheartedly recommend Janie and Edin Events. You won't find a more dedicated, talented, and genuinely caring professional in the industry. Trust us, you'll be in the best hands possible!
Janie was wonderful to work with! She's fun, works hard and get's it done! Highly recommend her! You'll feel in great hands with Janie. Thanks again, Janie!
Janie and Bri made my wedding an absolute dream! From being punctual to their eye for detail I couldn’t have asked for a better planner ! Edin Events would get a 10 star rating if it gave me the option.
If you are in need of a wedding planner Janie with Edin Events is the perfect person! Not only is she planner but becomes the greatest friend through out the entire process. I’m not sure how I would’ve made it through all the planning without Janie by my side. She is organized, professional, and definitely knows what she’s doing. She has such a creative mind and immediately knows what to do when you give her ideas. Hire her now!
I would give Edin Events 100 stars if possible! Janie is the absolute best at her job. She made our whole wedding experience non-stressful, organized, and (surprisingly) very fun to plan. Janie was very personal while also being professional. She had everything organized into check lists which made it extremely easy and comfortable for me to follow her lead on how to make my vision of our wedding come to life. Our day would not have been what it was without Janie and her crew, and I can't say enough good things about this business and Janie herself!
First off Edin Events exceeded my expectations!!!
From day one Janie was such a wonderful help and so easy to talk to! She made sure I had the most perfect day ever. I wanted someone I could work with that made things feel comfortable and easy and she did just that! Her assistant Bre was an angel and made me feel so loved on my big day as well. I would highly recommend Edin Events to every bride.
I think it is pretty obvious that Janie was born to be a wedding planner. When I say you need to hire Janie, I truly mean it. She not only made my wedding day run smoothly, but she made the process of planning the day much less stressful. Janie has worked with many top notch vendors and knew exactly who to book for the look that I was wanting, as well advocating for me the entire time. Janie is super organized from start to finish, extremely knowledgeable about all things wedding, and just simply amazing. I didn’t think it was possible to actually have a wedding of my dreams, but Janie made it possible.
Janie was absolutely amazing!! We hired Edin Events for month of coordination, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. Our wedding was everything we wanted it to be, and more. Janie made sure that every single detail was thought out and prepped before the day, and coordinated all of our vendors so we did not have to worry about a thing day of! Our wedding had many moving pieces and everything ran perfectly on the day. As an added bonus - Janie and her assistant, Bre, were an absolute pleasure to work with and we had so much fun with them! We LOVED working with them!
Y'all - Janie is a wedding ANGEL! This girl knows her stuff and if you are in need of planning or coordinating, HIRE HER!
I am a super type A, control freak and Janie understood me on a soul level. Her attention to detail was key for me since I had done all of the creative design work and planning myself, so for her to come in the month before the wedding and take my vision and break it down into daily tasks and who would be responsible for what and when it would all go down, was a godsend.
We were married at my husband's family property, which meant we were working with ALL outside vendors for literally everything, and had to hire our own staff, so Janie operated as not only the one to execute on the whole vision of the day, but made sure that every vendor knew what was going on. She was there for all of the setup on Friday, her and her team were at the house early on Saturday to do all of the decorating and setup, and they stayed late into the night after to help clean up. We could not have done it without her! On top of that, she even acted as my personal seamstress when my veil tore, and helped clean up the bottom of dress which was caked in mud after the days of rain we had leading up to the wedding, and made sure I was calm, cool and collected the entire day.
While I might be super organized and Type A, I am also a VERY anxious person and Janie is truly the definition of zen. Her presence alone kept my blood pressure down - no joke she emanates calmness and peace and it's contagious and what every bride needs on her big day.
And most importantly, Janie is a ray of sunshine and total sweetheart and acted as a friend and confidant the entire time we worked together. She didn't feel like someone I had only just met, and took her time to get to know me, my husband and our families and you just know how much she cares about you and your big day by how she goes above and beyond to support you.
I cannot sing Janie's praises enough and I hope that your search for a planner or coordinator stops here! You won't regret it!
If you are seeking a wedding planner do not look any further. You are exactly where you’ll want to be at Edin Events. EE is arguably the best event planning business in the United States. I cannot elucidate how positive and refreshing my experience with Edin Events was. Consider this the short version! The owner of Edin Events, Janie, is truly one of the most remarkable people I have ever met which makes her that much more of an outstanding wedding planner. From the time I first communicated with Janie via email I instantly had a great feeling about her. Her personality is simply magnetic. I am very particular and wanted to be informed of each and every detail that the wedding planning process would consist of. Janie thoroughly and professionally answered every question I asked and went above and beyond to provide more information regarding aspects I didn’t even think to ask about. There were many points at which I felt overwhelmed due to our wedding timeline and all of the tasks that led up to the date. Especially because we chose to have a destination wedding which can be tricky at times. Wedding planning can be so stressful! However, Janie took her time and energy to comfort me each and every time I expressed feelings of being overwhelmed. She went above and beyond the entire time she worked with us to accommodate our busy schedules when it came to communication about the wedding. She always offered to do any and everything she could to help make decisions, complete tasks, etc. to make things as smooth as possible. Janie values the fact that wedding planning should be fun and takes pride in one of her many responsibilities being to take as much stress away as possible. That meant so much to me being that my fiancé and I had an extremely busy schedule as healthcare workers in the middle of our planning. When Janie agreed to work with us, I didn’t know we’d be getting a wedding connoisseur, counselor, personal encourager, and the sweetest friend all in one. She even took time out of her busy schedule while preparing for her own wedding to attend my first dress fitting which spoke volumes on her dedication to me as a client. Janie is BEYOND detail oriented which is exactly what you want in a wedding planner. From contract verbiage and negotiation to focusing on the finest of details that I will let you experience for yourself (don’t want to spoil all of the fun) I never once worried about an aspect of our big day. Janie is an absolute God send and I will recommend her until my very last breath. Thank you from the very bottom of our hearts for everything Janie!
As Mother of the Bride I wanted my daughters wedding to be spectacular and perfect. I am slightly controlling and usually do not trust many people taking over my roles. But Janie with Edin Events went way above and beyond my expectations!!! I knew the moment she took over, one month before the wedding, that we were in good hands. She was organized, proficient and did not miss a beat. She immediately felt our wedding vibe and brought our vision to life with pure perfection!!! I was so relaxed on wedding day because Janie and her assistants were prepared for anything and everything. They took charge with ease and grace and made the wedding day and night one we will remember and cherish forever. Janie and Edin Events deserves one million stars. If MOB's out there want the best planner available, you will be smart and choose Janie Kegley Marcum with Edin Events!!!
If I could give 100 stars to Janie and her team at Edin Events I would! She went above and beyond to make our wedding weekend nothing short of amazing! She and her two assistants were so friendly, professional, and organized as they kept the entire wedding day running smoothly. They stayed so calm, cool, and collected, and made sure every single one of our wedding guests was enjoying the evening. Edin Events had absolutely everything I needed on wedding day, like a cleaning kit to help tidy up the bottom of my wedding dress after it got dirty from outdoor portraits, some pins to help tighten one of my bridesmaid's dress straps, and an assistant that travelled with me during my first look photos to hold my bouquet and dress as I walked around. Janie made all of our wedding dreams come true and added special touches to our wedding decor exactly like we imagined! Her floating candle centerpieces were absolutely stunning, her easels were perfect displays for our signage, and she even designed the most perfect bride and groom chair signs for the back of our seats at the reception! Janie and her team always had smiles on their faces throughout the entire day, and made my parents, family, friends, husband and I feel extra relaxed and loved on what could have been a very stressful day. My husband and I are extremely grateful we found Edin Events and were able to have her and her team help plan our special day! I highly recommend her to all the future brides out there searching for wedding planners!! Thank you Janie and Edin Events for EVERYTHING!!
Janie was the best decision we made for our wedding. She was completely thorough, well loved by other vendors, professional, and simply a delight to work with. Cannot recommend her enough.
What an extraordinary Edin Events wedding! The theme was so unique and I could not believe how flawlessly it came together for what was really a destination wedding. We all had such a lovely time. So thankful for the time and the effort she puts into her art!
Janie was such a nice surprise. She was able to handle a complex event with grace and ease that made everyone feel relaxed. She was prepared, knowledgeable, and comfortable with her authority. She knew when to speak up, and when to let things progress naturally while she watched attentively. I enjoyed working with her and I hope to do so again.
I’m the mother of the bride who did most of the planning for our daughter’s wedding, a big one on our farm in a somewhat short time frame. I found myself about 4 months out getting extremely stressed and realized that we desperately needed a planner.
I interviewed 3, of which Janie was my second pick, though the choice was tough. The first ultimately pooped out on us, not following through, too busy, etc. I went back to Janie and she was willing and eager to step in with “Month of Wedding Services.” Truly, we could not have done it without her!!!!
Janie reviewed what had already been done and prioritized and organized the remainder of the planning. There were a bazillion details which we had never considered that she helped us to evaluate and plan for. Her site visit confirmed that she had a really fun, creative “can do” spirit and her lovely design ideas helped to create the most beautiful wedding I’ve ever attended! (Of course I’m not biased ;)
Janie listened to every “wish” from the bride and groom and always had great ideas for how to execute them. She had so many fun and creative tips that truly made a difference!
I don’t think you could find another planner more passionate about her couples and making sure that their dream wedding is fulfilled to the best of her ability and within budget. She has the organization, connections and resources to help make any wedding wonderful!
Janie’s company, Edin Events, is going to be a huge success as her customer service goes above and beyond. Thank you so much, Janie!!!
Where do I even begin?! I wasn't planning on getting a planner at first until I saw a friend go through a wedding without one. My first phone call with Janie I already felt like we were friends. She helped me with so many things I NEVER even thought about. All I had to do was send her my Pinterest and give her my vibe...and she ran with it! Janie made my wedding come to life in the most beautiful way. So easy to talk to, making the whole process so easy by taking my stress away. If you don't have a coordinator/planner, Janie is your girl! I cannot recommend her enough. I now consider her a friend not just my wedding coordinator.
Clay and I could not recommend Janie enough for anyone looking for a wedding planner who will truly go above and beyond to make sure your day is perfect! Coming from a gal who stresses over everything, Janie took so much of that stress of Clay, my family, and I and made sure we were able to enjoy the whole process. She contacted/booked vendors, helped us stay in budget and on top of payments, was an active part of all vendor meetings, and had weekly check ins with us as the wedding date got closer! She answered texts and questions I had about anything and everything and was there for me as more than just a wedding planner but a support system anytime I was feeling overwhelmed. On the day of our wedding Janie and her team made sure everyone had everything they needed, carried my train, decorated, shared many laughs and happy tears with Clay and I, and so much more. We were truly so blessed and thankful to have had Edin Events as a part of such a special time in our lives!
Could not have planned my daughters wedding without Janie’s help!! She is so organized and excellent at what she does !! She has passion for what she does and truly listens and executes your dream . We also made a lifelong friend in her too!!
I am the mother of the groom....the brides family hired Edin Events....they were great! They helped the bride, the groom and both families through all the steps in planning a spectacular wedding! Would recommend Janey and her team over and over!
I can not say enough nice things about Janie and Edin Events! She continually went above and beyond throughout our planning process. Her responsiveness was timely and she communicated efficiently with all other vendors. Janie's attention to detail provided smooth transitions throughout the wedding day and her creative mind allowed for efficient problem solving while managing mandates during a pandemic wedding. She continuously eased my mind by going the extra mile and thinking outside the box. She comes highly recommended and you won't be disappointed in the effort that she puts forth for you and your wedding day! I could not be more pleased with our big day and it would not have been possible without her and her talent!
I couldn't have planned my wedding without Janie! She was extremely helpful in all aspects, from centerpiece design to contract review, finding ways to cut costs and bringing advice for a bride who doesn't know what she's doing. She's available when you need her and always willing to bring her expertise to the table with your vision in mind. I would highly recommend Edin Events to help plan your perfect day!
I cannot recommend Janie enough for all your wedding planning needs! I worked closely with her while planning an out-of-state wedding at the Cincinnati Art Museum. Not only is she a true JOY to work with, but she went above and beyond to execute a flawless day for my husband and I. She was quick to respond to my million and one emails/calls throughout the planning process and was extremely helpful when coordinating with outside vendors. She truly knows her stuff!! She helped to cut costs for us where possible and maintained a professional and calm demeanor despite my ocd-ness. She thinks of the tiny details that can be often overlooked! Hire her asap, you won't be disappointed!
Janie is the best! She’s calm, cool, collected, and organized. She made us feel so relaxed during the planning stages, and most importantly on our wedding day. She is so outgoing and can get along with anyone! My whole family was impressed with both her professional and ability to crack a joke ;) I highly recommend Edin Events to any couples looking for a top notch wedding/event planner.
