Events By Jacklyn

ing a beat. I would definitely recommend her to any brides that need assistance the day of!

rience and knowledge about the industry. She was able to share so many reputable recommendations for all of my vendor needs! Her attention to detail was unmatched! She executed all of my (very detailed) plans flawlessly! She will meet with you one-on-one, e-mail, text, call, and be readily available for all your day-of needs! I am SO SO thankful for all of her contributions to our wedding day! Definitely, definitely hire her! Xo

aceTiming with Jacklyn I knew her and her team would be perfect for the job. Jacklyn is the sweetest. The best money I spent was hiring a wedding planner. My day was stress free and it’s because of her and her team! We got married May 11, 2019- after having to postpone our September wedding due to hurricane Florence. Unfortunately this made Jacklyn’s job a lot more difficult. Some of my vendors had to change and it was essentially like replanning another wedding. She did it so well, and such a great support. Her kindness and skills are unmatched. She truly has a servant heart and made sure I was happy no matter what. Hire her already!

wedding and her and her team executed every detail perfectly. Looking around on the day and seeing everything come together with their help was truly amazing. Jacklyn is extremely professional and had the wedding flowing so smoothly from the ceremony to cocktail hour to reception. I loved working with her and would recommend her to any bride out there. We could truly enjoy the wedding to the fullest and didn't have a worry in the world day of because events by jacklyn handled it all! THANK YOU for making our day so amazing.

and, I knew I was going to ask her to help me. You could say it was a little crazy, BUT after seeing exactly how hard she works and how deeply she cares for her brides just by attending a wedding of hers- I was sold! The day of my wedding, every single detail and transition was seamless. It was like every time I had a thought, Jacklyn was there with exactly what I needed. I really can’t express enough how even during the planning process, she made every single meeting a joy to go to. I’m almost sad that my wedding is over simply that I don’t HAVE to meet with her anymore! I don’t even have an ounce of improvement, or anything she could do to make her business better because she goes the extra mile and then some! Jacklyn will forever have a place in my heart and I truly recommend her to you if you want a wedding that is pretty near to perfection.

dding weekend. Jacklyn goes out of her way to accommodate the bride's desires and dreams for the perfect wedding. Although we only had 4 months to plan my daughter's wedding, Jacklyn was calm and positive from the first planning meeting through the wedding day. She and her assistant were attentive to every detail, and they worked very hard to make sure the bride and her family could enjoy the festivities and not worry about the vendors, schedule, or last minute details on the wedding day. Jacklyn is both professional and friendly, making her such a wonderful person to have on your team on one of the most special days of your life! Jacklyn and her team efficiently handled every detail to allow our outdoor rehearsal and wedding ceremony to run smoothly and according to the schedule. Even though the weather was very hot, Jacklyn worked hard to be sure everything met our expectations. She and her assistant arrived early and stayed late, making sure every decoration was put away neatly before they left. We could not have asked for a better coordinator for my daughter's wedding. Although we weren't sure we could afford to hire a wedding planner at first, we were SO glad we decided to work with Jacklyn. She made the process of wedding planning more enjoyable and less overwhelming. Jacklyn's calm, patient spirit was just what we needed as we struggled to make so many big decisions in just a few months. She even helped us navigate a few mother-daughter differences of opinion! Events by Jacklyn is a highly professional, yet very personalized option for wedding coordinating. Allow Jacklyn and her team to help you plan the wedding of your dreams, and you will not be disappointed!

y our wedding would have gone as smoothly! From organizing the timeline to getting answers from vendors to making my vision come to life while I was getting ready off site, she took care of every little detail. I was able to kick back, relax, and spend the morning enjoying some time with my bridesmaids and never once worried about how things were going at the venue. Hire these ladies, you won’t be disappointed!

f everything. Our wedding day was perfect and we are incredible thankful for all she did to make our wedding day go just as we hoped it would!

een the ceremony and the reception. Jacklyn got it done in record time. She also organized everything for us to get to eat, put extras to go in the car for us, and even had drinks ready for the send off. Everything was perfectly timed. We got to actually talked and love on all of our guests. It was awesome. Cool Story: My wife asked me 6 months after the wedding if I knew that we ran out of wine at the wedding. I had no idea. Jacklyn had sent out her assistant to get more before either of us noticed. Like I said, hire her. You won't regret it.

the final moments of the wedding she was so amazing - such a calming presence - so full of expert advice and care. Every vendor we worked with spoke so highly of her. She made each and every step of this process easy and enjoyable. She is wonderful to work with and shows that she truly cares about her client and desires to make their dream wedding come true! I am so thankful we had Jacklyn by our side throughout every decision and on our daughter's special day. She is simply wonderful!!!

. Even the post wedding clean up was done to perfection. It felt like we had a friend at the wedding and would recommend Jacklyn to everyone!

e a completely different opinion. It turns out there were many details I had not considered. Having Jacklyn guide us through the process gave me peace of mind. She was able to provide us contacts for some great vendors and was never pushy or overbearing. On the day of the ceremony, I felt confident that she would make sure that things went off without a hitch, and they did. I cannot thank her enough for being there for us !

ngly together and I cannot thank them enough for making our dream wedding a reality! I have worked for a wedding coordinator before and I know how much work goes into this day. We love Jacklyn because she’s calm, collected and extremely positive in even the most stressful situations. I cannot recommend her enough! We will miss planning with them, they’re amazing people!

r wedding change was going to be in the rain! She did a superb job moving 130 people the day before the wedding from outside to inside our venue. I highly recommend Jacklyn.

ordinator to guide us through the maze of decisions we had ahead of us. From the venue to the vendors and so many more details, she made it all come together for Hayden’s dream wedding. She kept us on track with the timeline and helped us prioritize the budget. The day of the wedding was wonderful and we all had a great experience. It was a pleasure and a joy to work with such a sweet and talented person.

time). My spouse was not too thrilled when I hired Jacklyn, but at the end of the evening he turned to Jacklyn and said “ok, i guess you were worth it.” Which for him meant that she was definitely worth it and he appreciated her being there. For him to admit that is a huge deal!!!! We only hired Jacklyn for day of services but she was definitely there for me whenever I had a question and met with me several times before the big day.

nough good things about Jacklyn and her amazing performance at my bonus daughters wedding. I would recommend her over and over again! I’m actually sad the wedding is over because I enjoyed spending time with her! ...And her husband was the DJ who was fantastic as well!! Thank you Jacklyn!!!

ordinator. Jacklyn was the BEST investment that we could have possibly made for our wedding. She took my vision and made it a reality with very little of my help. She made me feel at ease when I was freaking out (and trust me I was freaking out a lot) and she made the event transition seemlessly. At one point I mentioned to my husband that I didn't remember how I was cued to cut the cake and he said "oh Jacklyn reminded us!" If you are on the fence, TRUST ME when I say that Jacklyn is the best. She's clearly passionate about bringing people's vision to life. I had so many compliments at how seemlessly the day went. Definitely hire Jacklyn!

r and the end result was a dream come true, the very best day of my life. This woman is amazing!

y-Of Coordinator for our wedding last July and WOW - we are so lucky to have found her! She was the literal calm through the storm, as she took charge in adjusting our timeline to accommodate the rain and save our decor, and we wound up having the most beautiful sunset ceremony by the water. I am so thankful that Jacklyn was there, and my husband and I would both highly recommend Events by Jacklyn for your wedding!

x. From the very beginning my daughter had a vision for her big day and we did the majority of the planning and preparations on our own. However several months before the wedding reality hit -- it was going to be an impossible task for me to coordinate all the vendors and make sure the plans were executed on the day of the wedding and still fulfill my role as mother-of-the-bride. So we decided to look into "day of" coordinators. My daughter and I met with Jacklyn and during the course of our discussion and review of the wedding day plans we realized some key details had been overlooked. Not only did we end up hiring Jacklyn but we also hired her husband, Joey, as the emcee for the reception. Jacklyn's organization and attention to detail ensured that everything came together seamlessly on the day of the wedding and I didn't have to worry about a thing. The wedding theme was rustic and casual with an outdoor ceremony and reception that included lawn games, s'mores by the fire and music and dancing in the barn. Even the brief rain showers during the reception were handled without panic. And having Joey was a God-send when the sign designed to hang above the ceremony site didn't have the appropriate hardware for hanging. Out came the drill and other tools -- the sign was hung and ready for the wedding vows. Jacklyn is easy going and has a calming influence when necessary. Her efforts ensured my daughter's wedding day was the "dream come true" she hoped it would be. And working with both Jacklyn and Joey felt more like having the help of friends than a business relationship.

husband as well as our families. We could trust her every move and decision to make our day the best day of our lives. The best part was that my mom did not have to pick up the "slack" and could enjoy the wedding day as much as we could. We even had a wedding crasher (not lying!!) and Jacklyn handled it with complete poise and grace! We had no clue until the next day. Now as a business owner in the wedding industry, I have been able to work with Jacklyn on weddings and styled shoots. She is always a joy to be with and is so encouraging to me as someone starting out in the industry. She won't disappoint you....ever! So if you're on the fence, hire her! You won't regret it.

ld relax and enjoy the day of the wedding) It was the perfect gift! And Jacklyn was the perfect person for the job. She always made everyone feel at ease throughout the year of planning. She brought all of our ideas together and had really great suggestions for vendor choices when we were trying to keep in budget. Really and truly could not have had a better, smoother, and more stress free day-of. All thanks to Jacklyn.

our time difference. Even after the reception, she was helping get all gifts, cards, and personal items into the right vehicle. I will forever be grateful for making my special day perfect. Thank you sooo much Jacklyn.

our expectations. We met with her several times throughout our planning process and made herself available when I had questions which turned it to be invaluable. She seem less my handles last minute issues, has a great working relationship with local vendors and ensured our wedding was executed flawlessly. I highly recommend making the investment in a coordinator for peace of mind and for the wealth of knowledge they bring to the table.

ship with them. She made us feel very comfortable with our planning progress and never made us feel like we were a burden. She is incredibly professional and deserves all of the business that is given to her. I would absolutely recommend her as your choice in a wedding planner/coordinator. I'm sure she is exactly what every couple is looking for.

st day we sat down to discuss my wedding day vision at Starbucks, she has literally been a god-send. We hired Jacklyn for partial planning. Jacklyn was thorough and detailed in every way. She kept in constant touch with me and all the vendors. She met me at our venue in downtown Suffolk multiple times. Jacklyn was always a text or email away of we had any questions. The week of the wedding, Jacklyn and her team followed through with every single detail I had planned, even the DIY items. Knowing that she was there taking care of all things wedding, it allowed me and my now husband to enjoy our special day. We really can't say Thank You enough!

e perfect person to help us achieve our desires for our wedding day! She was so invested! She made us feel as though all our ideas were attainable and looking back we would have been lost without her. She's is the sweetest, most caring person and I would 100% recommend her over and over again!! She took such great care of us on our wedding day also! Made sure we took time to eat, made sure we had everything we needed at all times! She handled all our vendors, made sure things were set up just how we wanted, I could go on and on! Literally can't say enough great things about her!!! Jacklyn is the best!

made! Jacklyn will make sure that after a year of planning your vision is executed well. A day-of coordinator also means that your family is able to relax and enjoy the day. Even as just a day-of coordinator, she was involved in all of the details. She kept in touch with us in the months leading up to the big day, and was always available to answer a question. When hiring Jacklyn we were given access to an amazing online tool called Aisle Planner, which allows you to create timelines, checklists, and upload pictures for inspiration – which was super helpful in staying organized. Hiring Jacklyn gives you so much more than a professional – she is kind, encouraging, always smiling, calm, focused, and handles every situation with such grace. When I wasn’t able to have my Mom there when getting ready before the wedding, she came up with a plan for a “first look with the parents” and made sure that we had a special moment together. As a bride/groom you stay very busy during the day, but Jacklyn paid attention to all of the little things and made sure we ate food, had water, and changed into comfy shoes. Our day was perfect – and if anything went wrong, we never knew of it! In addition, all of our vendors said she was excellent at communicating with them throughout the process and loved working with her! Our photographer even posted on Instagram “I had a wonderful time with these two and loved working with EventsbyJacklyn (she is AMAZING!)”. Thank you so much for being a part of our wedding! – Virginia & Kevin Roach

o kind (and a fellow JMU alum!) and we were able to set up a Skype session soon after. She was so thorough and was able to give so much advice and input into a lot of finite details that I was really unsure about. On the day-of, she and a summer intern (shout-out Allison for being amazing!) were all hands on deck to help us set up and coordinate with our vendors. I seriously don't know what I would have done without her. We were able to fully enjoy the day knowing Jacklyn had it under control. We are so thankful for her work and her ability to serve others. She is wonderful and someone you definitely want by your side on your wedding day!

about all aspects of the process. Though we only hired her for day-of coordination, it felt like she was right there with us throughout the entire process. On the day of the wedding she and her team were absolute rock stars. They took care of tasks we hadn't even discussed previously, helped set up decorations beautifully with very little direction from me, and somehow dealt with the fact that the caterer's oven wasn't working prior to the ceremony. I'm still not sure how that got resolved but the fact that I don't know to this day speaks to Jacklyn and her team's problem solving prowess. I was more relaxed than I ever would have envisioned I could be on my wedding day because I knew she had it all covered. Overall, we couldn't speak more highly Jacklyn!

deas in the beginning, she was quick to help put together a mood board that captured my vision and more. Even better, she helped to bring the pages of that same mood board to life! I have a type-A personality, so her aisle planner software was one of my favorite parts of the planning process. Everything was in one place! She had a positive attitude and brought me back to Earth when we ran into issues with vendors, contracts, and other details. The only reason I didn't give her 5 stars is because as a type-A, and a little controlling, bride there were times when I wasn't happy with her responsiveness. Since we opted for a full-service planner, when I was working on wedding tasks and needed her assistance, I expected her attention at least within the same day. But sometimes due to engagements with other brides and family vacations, it would take a few days to hear back from her. However, when it came to the week of our wedding, she was super-attentive and detail-oriented. We couldn't have been more pleased with how everything turned out. So overall, we were very pleased with Jacklyn's services.

plan it in less than 4 months. I could not have asked for a better planner! She had many brides but made me feel like I was the only one. She went above and beyond in every way and spent so much time helping us plan our perfect day! She helped us stick to our budget but adjusted it to our priorities and where we thought the money was more worth spending. From great vendor recommendations, to decor planning, and making sure every detail turned out just as imagined, she was a dream come true!

tthew crashing our wedding weekend. Jacklyn would have been fully in the right to remove herself from the event to stay with her family. Roads were bad, trees were down, and power was out. Instead she helped us re-plan our wedding on the fly. She was calm, cool and super flexible. It is easy for a wedding planner to be amazing when there are no major setbacks. But to see truly how good she is, throw a natural disaster her way and watch her shine. We had an amazing day thanks to Jacklyn. Wedding guests raved...which is pretty good considering our venue never had power the entire time. Simply great...thank you Jacklyn! Jennifer & Ben Giancola

coordinator. I was able to relax on the wedding day knowing that Jacklyn understood my vision and was going to be able to take care of all of the details my type-A personality was worried about ;) She was responsive via email and text during the planning process and met with us whenever we asked - including a walk-through at the venue a month out from the wedding. Jacklyn felt like an old friend from the get-go and even though a few issues came up on the wedding day, she handled them calmly, letting us know only because it involved additional cost, and our guests never knew the difference. I highly recommend Events by Jacklyn - she helped make our day fantastic!

ible. She was amazing at keeping things moving to our time schedule, and always around if I needed something. She was flexible and helped to make last minute changes work seamlessly. I was so happy with her elegant touches that matched my wedding's feel. She moved flowers around as we changed locations, fixed anything that was out of place, and made sure that the venue stayed looking top-notch throughout the entire event. She even stayed after the party finished to help with clean up. Jacklyn was super easy to talk to, patient with my "bride brain" and made sure she understood my vision and did everything she could to make my day super special. My wedding would not have gone off as beautifully and perfect as it did without Jacklyn's help! She is absolutely incredible!

. She listened to everything my daughter and I wanted and made it all happen and fall into place with what appeared to be total ease. She always had a smile on her face making me believe that everything was going smoothly so I could relax and not worry. She didn’t pester me with details, but was always close at hand so I could run to her with a question or request if I felt the need. There were several occasions where I started to go to her and as if reading my mind, she was taking care of whatever it was just as I began to approach her. I was able to sit with my girls and watch them get there hair done, have my nails painted and laugh with them. I was there to see my daughter get dressed and be a part of all the pre- wedding happenings with a smile on my face and only the expected twinge of worry in my heart. Jacklyn made me realize at the reception that I could sit back and relax, enjoy my guests, watch my daughter on her special day and even have a dance or two. And she was still there at the end of it all, making sure everything was picked up and everyone was happy. I cannot tell express enough how pleased we all were with Jacklyn's service and yes – a sense of friendship. Her demeanor made us all feel as if she knew us well - a family friend who was there to help us get through the day and make sure we all came away with a huge smile on our face! We all wish you, Jacklyn, the best of luck with your company

s great to work with, extremely personable and responsive.

ed up some rental items for our wedding reception! I had full confidence on our wedding day that she had it under control and I could sit back and enjoy the day as the bride. She did a wonderful job on offering ideas and answering any questions I had about wedding etiquette/planning. I highly recommend her to any bride-to-be as she is very professional but also approachable and easy to talk to!

agined!!! Thank you so much for making my day memorable :)

ily. (The only reason she did not help with my brothers is because she was still in high school when he got married) I can vouch for all of us that she went above and beyond in every aspect. The stress that comes with the big day was completely taken away knowing Jacklyn was there to help. She took care of issues that I did not even know were going on. I can say the biggest help was taking the stress off my mother. She was able to enjoy time with family and friends without having to make important decisions. Jacklyn is extremely trustworthy, organized, and resourceful. She is a wonderful person to work with and I recommend her to everyone that I know!!

f a stress free wedding day and takes away all the pressure! and thank God she was there when emergencies arose! She kept me calm and solved the problems so me and my family didn't have to- she went above and beyond BEFORE the wedding too and helped during planning meetings and then assisted with setting up at the reception. Did I mention she did all of this right after finding out she was pregnant? Superwoman! I have recommended Jacklyn to many friends who are brides and I will recommend her to you too for affordable, WONDERFUL assistance- thank you again Jacklyn!!

moothly, fixed problems before we even knew about them, and even stayed late into the night to help with clean up. I can't say enough good things about her. The wedding was amazing, and there is no way we could have pulled it off without Jacklyn.
