Esq.Events

place full of beautiful flowers, live music, amazing food, a picturesque tent with candle-lit farm tables and timeless table settings – every detail was exactly what we’d hoped for. She even pulled out an antique ladder from her own garage to use as a display for pictures of our grandparents who couldn’t make the day. My husband and I both have demanding jobs, so finding the perfect planner was the first step we took to make sure we were able to have the wedding we wanted. We decided to go with Jen’s team because they weren’t afraid of our 9-month timeline and immediately shared ideas that got us excited. Jen found Toad Hill Farm quickly, and the 360º scenic view of the white mountains was exactly what we’d imagined as the backdrop for our wedding. From there, she introduced us to all her favorite vendors and transformed a couple mountain pastures into a place we will remember forever. Jen and Liz even met with my mom and me to look at dresses and shared their expertise. As a detailed-thinker myself, Jen was incredible at reassuring me that we were on-track and on-budget throughout the process. Every minute concern or random idea I brought her, she had an answer. On the days of both our wedding and rehearsal dinner Jen and her team made the events go seamlessly. Not only did we have an incredible wedding, but we and our families were able to enjoy the moment because Jen and her team had it all under control. And we know things went wrong, because they always do – but because we had a good planner, it didn’t matter.

llion questions and wants the help and opinion of a professional? You got that, too. She recommended some of the most wonderful vendors, and truly made our day (and wedding weekend) run without a hitch (and if there was, I didn't know about it!). She also knew when to push me and my husband to make decisions (we're very laid back and were somewhat apathetic with wedding planner), but also knew when she could add and make decisions without bothering us, either. She added so many beautiful, creative, incredible touches to our reception - especially in a space that was difficult to work with. She gave both my husband and I a piece of mind that we wouldn't have had otherwise. I can't recommend Jennifer enough!

- your search is over. Send her a booking email, close your browser window and go back to planning the abhorrent amount of sparkles (or serene lack thereof) on your dream dress or duds. Speaking as a person who claims to be "no frills" but still wants a sophisticated party, I can testify that planning these events gets complicated...and fast. Because if you honestly think about it - and I'm looking at you - even then most "bare bones" bride or groom has a vision in their head about how they want their wedding to look and feel. Whether you consider it to be THE DAY OF ALL DAYS or just a charming start to the rest of your lives, we all have visions and expectations. Even me. A woman who avoids brushing my hair with a daily barretted up-do and would prefer wearing a uniform to avoid daily clothing decisions. Yup, I even had visions. A mix of equestrian, motorcycles, turn-of-the-century ritz and "ironic" beers - I had subconscious visions galore. And Jennifer was whiz at helping me identify all those things, what mattered and what didn't, where to spend and where to save (important!) and how to make on helluva party. Plus, Jennifer had great connections with so many local vendors, so I found the raddest florist, photog and caterers. Finally, Jennifer is a truly amazing person - she is genuine, funny and earnestly wants the day to meet your vision. Bottom line: This zany"thing" you're about to host with your beloved - cozy or grandiose, steamy-punk or gutter-goth, tradish or something singular, and every shade in-between - is going to be memorable and take between 2 and 7 months to plan and coordinate, so why not enjoy both the event AND the process too? That's where Jennifer's magic skills and charming personality really shine. I couldn't have been more impressed.
