Jessica and her team were absolutely amazing! We had a lot, of personal family situations, taking place leading up to our big day and she made sure to make everything happen seemle...
ssly. We cannot thank her and her team enough for everything they did to make our day absolutely perfect! Our wedding was in our backyard which was more work than we ever expected. Thanks to Jessica and her team, it all came together, like we invisioned and we are so grateful for all of the patience they had with us. Thank you again for making our day a dream come true.
Cheers Sept 13, 2025

From the moment we booked Events by J.Design, we felt complete peace. Jessica handled everything — vendors, timeline, décor flow, and logistics — all within our venue. What stood o...
ut most was how calm and confident she remained throughout the entire process. We never had to chase answers or worry about details. On the wedding day, everything flowed seamlessly, and we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. Hiring Jessica was the best decision we made.
Hands down the BEST Wedding Planner!!! Events by J.Design went above and beyond for our wedding day! We actually had an unexpected accident with a guest right before our grand entr...
ance. Someone slipped and fell and hit her head on the ground as guests were making their way into the reception from cocktail hour. Jessica immediately took charge! She got on the phone with 911, handled our guest, instructed venue staff for a difribulator and another to direct paramedics where to go upon arrival, and while doing so, instructed us to line up for the grand entrance! I was in shock! When the paramedics arrived, they took over with the guest and she got up and positioned our photo/video team where to angle and capture our grand entrance from so you wouldn't see the paramedics in the background and immediately got the grand entrance going. Thankfully our guest was fine! 😅 Jessica did not miss a beat and handled it with so much professionalism and knowledge! You can tell she's been doing this for years! Do not hesitate! Events by J.Design really knows what they're doing and are worth every penny!!
We were referred to Events by J.Design by our venue. They highly referred them. We had 300 guests and utilized every rental space at our venue. Every detail was overseen and manage...
d and our day felt so special. They made sure everything went wanted was done and executed. Hiring Events by J.Design was one of the best decisions we made!
Planning a church ceremony with a separate reception venue felt overwhelming until we hired Events byJ.Design. We had a strict church with certain rules and regulations we needed t...
o follow. Jessica communicated and managed all transitions with precision — from church arrival timing, family seating, processional order, and transportation, to a smooth handoff at the reception venue. Everything ran on time without feeling rushed. Her experience coordinating church weddings truly shows, and we trusted her completely.
We also had a very large immediate family and an extensive formal photo list to do following the ceremony, which we were worried would take forever and weren't given much time from the churchto gwy them done. Jessica said to trust her and ran family portraits like a pro. She had everyone lined up, called out names clearly, and kept things moving without stress or confusion. Our photographer got to position the family and focus on taking pictures.
What could have been chaotic was actually efficient and smooth — not only did we get through photography quickly but still managed 10 minutes to spare and we were able to get alone pictures in the church as well. Our photographer even commented on how helpful she was. We couldn’t have done this without her!
We hired Events by J.Design for our daughters Quinceañera. We met Jessica at a Quinceañera expo. You don't really hear of Day of Coordinators for Quinceañeras. Growing up you're ki...
nd of taught that family just helps you on the Quinceañera day, but I didn't want that. I didn't want to have to work my daughters special day, I wanted to enjoy it and my family enjoy it. Jessica is also Hispanic and fluent in spanish, she understood traditions and what was important. She also explained the purpose of a Quinceañera in a way its never been explained to me before. She took over 2 months before our event date and by 2 weeks before, I was completely stress free. She handled all of the details! On the day of, my family and I got to enjoy our daughters special day and not have to worry about anything. We recommend Events by J.Design 100%! Don't work your event, she's really got it!
We hired Events by J.Design after I started wedding planning. I was excited to begin wedding planning and thought I could handle all of the planning on our own. With a full time jo...
b and not knowing all of the details and time wedding planning took, at 5 months before my wedding, I was desperate for help! I interviewed a few planners but when I spoke with Jessica, she sounded so knowledgeable! She gave us honest answers and you could just tell by the way she spoke that she was the real deal. We hired her for partial planning, told her the vendors we still needed and she immediately got to work. She referred us some great vendors and we were able to book the remaining vendors quickly. She handled all timeline logistics and communication with all of our vendors. Honestly, she helped us so much and took away the stress. She was with us from start to finish and handled everything. Our day was perfect and beautiful!
Wow! I knew I needed a Day of Coordinator, but Jessica at Events by J.Design far exceeded my expectations! I was told I needed a Day of Coordinator to manage my wedding day, from t...
imeline management to vendor and guest management as the Venue Coordinator does not oversee that. I was explained that our Venue Coordinator would be there the day of the wedding but was not responsible for managing our day or timeline and we required a coordinator. I am so happy we had Jessica to handle our day! She met with us and carefully pulled all the pieces together, explained small details we hadn't even thought of, and gave us homework to give her in order to pull it all together. Our day was relaxing, stress free, and so happy! Our families were able to fully enjoy every moment without having to worry about a single thing. Our parents were beyond impressed! She carried herself with a smile but handled lland executed every detail with authority and class. Everyone knew she was in charge, but she did it so perfectly! You can truly tell she loves weddings and is so confident and knowledgeable! You will NOT be dissapointed! She knows what she's doing and inwould recommend Events by J.Design over and over!
We cannot say enough good things about Events by JDesign and Jessica! Hiring her for month-of and day-of coordination was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Jessica...
is truly next-level. From the moment we hired her, she was incredibly thorough, organized, and professional. Our venue was a large resort, and she brought her husband as an assistant, which was absolutely the right call. They worked seamlessly together and handled everything with confidence and efficiency.
In the final month leading up to our wedding, a few unexpected issues popped up with the resort. Jessica immediately stepped in, took over all communication, and completely shielded us from the stress. Even though we only hired her for month-of coordination, she went above and beyond, and we can only imagine how incredible she is for full or partial planning. She handled every single timeline, which were extremely detailed, making sure our ideas were incorporated while also keeping everything realistic and smooth. She communicated all schedules with our venue, vendors, and even our wedding parties, so we never had to answer questions or worry about logistics.
On the wedding day, Jessica and her husband set up both our ceremony and reception spaces, coordinated our entrances for the ceremony and reception, handled seating issues without us ever knowing, and took full control of the flow of the day so everything ran smoothly. After the reception, they completely cleaned up the entire space, packed everything into boxes, and had it all delivered back to our room. We did not have to lift a finger, and my bridal party was shocked at how on top of everything she was.
We met Jessica a year before our wedding and paused planning for a bit. When we picked things back up, we immediately said, “We need to hire that Jessica girl!” and we were so right. By the end of the night, we were beyond impressed and so grateful to have had her by our side. Jessica means business, and because of her, our entire day ran effortlessly. We will recommend Events by JDesign to anyone and everyone. You will not regret it!
We are so glad we hired Jessica for our day of coordinator! She was not only perfectly bilingual, but also took over all of the details we really cared about and did not have to st...
ress over. Her communication was top notch with us and all of our vendors. We highly recommend her services!
Jessica was hands down, the absolute best to work with! She is very professional , detail oriented & just amazing at what she does! We could not have had our wedding go as seamless...
as it did without her. From start to finish, she made sure every little detail was figured out and communicated very clearly what she needed to ensure an amazing day for us! Our entire outdoor wedding/cocktail hour was rained out. She worked effortlessly to give us the wedding we wanted while moving things indoors . It was absolutely beautiful and perfect. She not only provided a service to our wedding, but truly felt like she was a friend/family. She is very experienced and we would recommend her for your wedding or event. You’ll have many decisions to make and you will 100% want her to be one of them!!!
STRESS FREE. So so WORTH IT!! I couldn’t be happier with hiring Events by J. Design. My daughter’s Quince party was well organized and everyone just had positive things to say at t...
he end of the party. As the mom of the Quinceañera, I was able to fully enjoy the party, STRESS FREE. My daughter, and I, as well as close relatives were all very satisfied with the services Events by J. Design provided. My daughter still mentions how memorable her day was and how everything was well taken care of and had no worries, thanks to Jessica. Jessica took care of everything from the biggest to the smallest detail of the event. We have attended other Quince celebrations after my daughter’s party and we have witnessed the stress and chaos it causes when there isn’t someone coordinating the celebration. My daughter and I are so thankful we hired Events by J. Design, it was so so so worth it. We will be hiring Jessica again for any of our future big celebrations and we recommend her to all of our family and friends who are looking for an event coordinator expert.
We hired Events by J.Design 2 weeks prior to our wedding day! Yes, 2 weeks! I initially had a friend who offered to be our Wedding Planner and claimed to know what she was doing an...
d 2 weeks prior to my wedding day - canceled on us! Our venue referred us to Jessica from Events by J.Design and I was desperate. Jessica stated that planning would be very tight and required a lot of information from us but would guide us through it all....and that's exactly what she did! We had nothing previously for our wedding from my friend. As soon as Jessica was onboard, she immediately created our timeline and contacted all of our vendors. She planned all of our logistics immediately and asked us questions we hadn't even thought of. She definitely knows everything for weddings and we quickly realized how well she's also known within the industry as some of our vendors recognized her. We event had a couple vendors praise her and tell us how good she was for making their job so easy! I only wish I would've hired her sooner!
It was my husband and my first Quinceañera for our oldest daughter and we had no clue as to what we were supposed to do. We have attended Quinceañera's before - but planning one wa...
s a first for us. While browsing on a Facebook Quince group, I encountered Jessica from Event by J.Design. She offered Day of Quinceañera services and I inquired to speak with her to obtain more information. She explained and walked me through the meaning of a Quinceañera as well as what each special represents. She was so well informed! She also mentioned she would handle everything and all logistics the day of and that we wouldn't have to worry about anything. At first, my husband was a little apprehensive about the service (mainly because we kept adding more things to spend) but I loved the idea of not having to be the point person on the day of and not have to worry about anything - eventually he gave in and we hired her. Let me tell you, that was one of THE BEST decisions!! We honestly did not have to worry about anything!! She made sure we were on schedule - which is very difficult to do for hispanic families - but Jessica being hispanic herself, navigated that very well!! She set up and broke down for us and handled every detail. We got to enjoy every minute of our daughters Quinceañera!! If you are debating - take my word, hire her NOW and enjoy your event! Best decision EVER!
I hired Events by J.Design for my daughter’s Quince this year. I want to start off by saying they exceeded my expectations!! They made my day stress free and I was able to attend m...
y event without any worries:) They made sure that every detail we discussed was put into place. They are extremely professional, family oriented, detailed, and friendly. I can’t wait for them to help plan and organize my next event!!
We hired Events by J.Design for Full Wedding Planning. We have a very busy schedule and wedding planning was going to be very difficult for us. Our first encounter was a phone call...
with Jessica whom from the beginning over the phone sounded so knowledgeable about the wedding industry. She was so informative from the beginning and so we hired her. We had multiple in-person meetings with her. She made the wedding planning process so smooth and flawless - we did not have much to worry about. Jessica heard everything we were asking for, guided us and booked all of our vendors. She understood what was impotant to us and gave her advice. She handled all of the logistics and questions our vendors had, the timeline, the family and bridal party. On the day of our wedding she took an assistant with her, they handled all of our decor set up, made sure we remained on schedule and that ultimately we got to enoy the day. I honestly do not know what our wedding would've been without her! We highly recommend Jessica and her team!
Jessica was the best wedding planner! She truly knows what she is doing! She helped me reach my vision and make sure all my wishes came true. She reached out to all vendors and mad...

She is just fantastic all around, 10 out of 10 would HIGLY RECOMMEND! Thanks Jess! 😘💜

Jessica is the absolute best!!! We were married in June 2023 at Blumen Gardens and her expertise and attention to detail made our wedding day incredibly stress-free, allowing us to...
truly enjoy every moment of the day.
In the month leading up to our wedding, Jessica played a pivotal role in finalizing all the loose ends of our planning, ensuring no detail was overlooked. She flawlessly coordinated our day-of timeline, effectively communicating with our vendors, bridal party, and families.
On the day of our wedding, Jessica was there bright and early with us while we got ready and was the last one to leave the venue at the end of the night. I truly don’t think I could list all she did for us on the day of but to name a few things, she assisted with decor setup, met with vendors as they arrived, and ensured we were sticking to our timeline. Any issues that arose throughout the day were swiftly taken care of. She handled everything effortlessly. We highly recommend Jessica!!!
Words can not express how wonderful Jessica was as our wedding planner! She was so organized and supportive thru the entire process. We needed a lot of guidance and Jessica made ...

illingness to go above and beyond for our clients. This is also J.Design. She is such a lovely person to work with. All too many times I've seen sub par "planners" take your day and make it their way. There is really no amount of words to describe the amount of gratitude I have for people who actually care about their clients vision. Stop scrolling now. Hire J.Design.

bout when they say the day of is stressful! Haha!! Jessica is a rockstar she had everything we needed and knew what to do about every situation that came up! She made sure everyone was in the loop and where they needed to be at what time. I was so stressed leading up to the month of my wedding but when Jessica took over I finally was able to get excited and relax the month of and the day of!! She is extremely experienced in the wedding world which was amazing since I knew nothing about anything wedding related! She was our best decision we made for our wedding! Book with her!

y of our questions/concerns quickly and we even had an issue with our DJ that Jessica handled with grace. I would highly recommend Jessica to anyone who is interested (or even on the fence) about hiring a wedding coordinator!
My dad said “what a great job Jessica did on your wedding day! I’ve never seen a wedding as beautiful as yours.” He may be biased because he is my father but the day went smoothly ...
and my wedding was an absolute dream thanks to Jessica. Everything ran on time and Jessica went above and beyond to make sure the day went well. Getting a wedding coordinator was so worth it!
We had our wedding back in September of 2022. We started planning our wedding thinking we could do it on our own. It started to become overwhelming and that's when we found Jessi...
ca! She did an amazing job and we couldn't be more happier with how our wedding day went. Jessica made sure everything ran as smoothly as possible for us. She's the best!!
Jessica was instrumental in having our backyard wedding run smoothly. She had a very detailed planning checklist with things that I wouldn’t have thought of on my own. Throughout t...
he entire planning process, Jessica was flexible with our busy work schedules, she was available to us whenever we needed advice, and she was very friendly, reasonable, and thoughtful when helping us make decisions. Having Jessica help us with the entire planning process made me feel that much more confident the day of my wedding. I knew that having her there meant things would get done correctly, on time, and exactly how I wanted it. The day of my wedding, Jessica was on time, had an incredibly detailed itinerary to keep us on schedule, and brought a very calming mood assuring me that everything was handled. The day of my wedding, Jessica reminded me to look around and take in everything that we had planned and worked on for months, I was beyond happy and impressed with the way everything came together. I’m grateful to have had Jessica by my side. I would 100% recommend her to future brides and grooms! Thank you, Jessica!!

he referred us to Jessica who immediately dived in to help us. We could not believe how quickly Jessica got to know us and learned everything about our plans. She worked exceptionally well with our other vendors and was super proactive in making sure everyone was on the same page for our big day. Jessica is extremely professional, thorough and detail oriented which we really appreciated. She was so helpful with our venue walkthrough and thought of many things we would have missed. From figuring out the schedule and making sure everyone was where they needed to be (and on time!) Jessica was absolutely perfect! We highly recommend Jessica and are so glad to have worked with her!!
Events by J.Design are the best!!! Jessica did an Amazing job coordinating my wedding it was such an amazing day for both me and my husband!!!Thank you so much!!!!❤️😊👍
I could go on and on about how amazing Jessica was in planning our wedding. We had the pleasure of working with Jessica for almost 3 years due to the pandemic.
Prior to the pandem...
ic- our wedding venue suddenly closed 8 months before we were supposed to get married. I called Jessica in a panic and she had already heard and reached out to other venues about their availability. We were able to sign with a new vendor that weekend. We truly would not have been able to navigate that without her. She was also incredibly accommodating and flexible when we had to change our wedding date due to the pandemic.
As we got closer to our wedding date- she would send emails and information leading up to our day. She spoke with all of our vendors, made a timeline for the day and was available by phone/text for any questions we had.
The day off- she was invaluable. She made sure our day ran smoothly. Checked in with us often and made sure our day went the way we wanted. I even got scratched by a guest and she had a first aid kit and helped bandaged my up.
Jessica knows the wedding industry and goes above and beyond for her couples. You will not regret booking Jessica for your big day.
JESSICA WAS WONDERFUL IN PLANNING MY DAUGHTER'S QUINCEANERA. HER ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND PROFESSIONALISM WAS EXTREMELY HELPFUL WHEN THE VENDORS WERE FORGETTING OR NOT STAYING ON T...
ASK. HER ABILITY TO KEEP THE EVENT RUNNI G SMOOTHLY AND SEAMLESSLY THROUGHOUT MY DAUGHTER'S QUINCEANERA WAS PURE PERFECTION. I WAS ABLE TO DANCE THE NIGHT AWAY WORRY-FREE. A BIG THANK YOU TO JESSICA AND HER TEAM ❤️. I TRULY BELIEVE THE NIGHT WAS PERFECT BECAUSE OF HER DEDICATION TO MAKING THE EVENT GO OFF WITHOUT ANY ISSUES.
This wedding caused plenty of stress for us as a couple as we expected but I am SO relieved that we decided to get a planner to organize the actual day-of for us!! Jessica was so d...
etailed, thinking of things even I forgot we needed. She broke it down in a way that made the last few weeks seem easier to accomplish and get through and she always encouraged us to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. We will never regret hiring Jessica! To have the whole day of the wedding to ourselves without worrying about the details and without our family members being pulled away to do things was a dream and we loved every second!!
I consider myself a very organized person but realized there was no way I could manage every little detail and person without sacrificing me fully enjoying my wedding day. I am so ...
so thankful I came to this realization and found Events by J. Design in the process. We had the pleasure of working with Jessica (the owner) and Brenda. From the first meeting with them, they were so attentive to wants for our wedding day and helped us begin to map out and organize our to do list and wedding day timeline. They were incredibly professional and knowledgeable and best of all, experienced! They knew all the ins and outs (a lot of things I didn't even think of) and best advice for helping make the day (from bridesmaids getting ready all the way to clearing out decorations at the end of the reception) run absolutely smoothly!! Events by J. Design becomes the point person for the wedding planning and day of the wedding. Before the wedding, they have communication with all your other vendors (church, DJ, photo/video, transportation, etc.) and even make a wedding day timeline for those vendors so everyone is on the same page! It was so relieving to know that all the vendors would be moving as one team together on the day thanks to the Jessica and Brenda's leadership and detailed organization! All of our vendors were also thrilled to be working with versed wedding professionals to help the planning process move along easily. We really could not have executed our wedding and enjoyed it so much without the help of Jessica and Brenda. We are so so grateful for them and would highly recommend them to anyone because what they gave us is what we wish for every couple preparing for their wedding!

ngs at which I’ve worked! Jessica is fabulous to work with! She has a great attention to detail combined with a positive and warm personality. Highly recommended for any couple!
Where to start?…. Everyone needs a Jessica!
I could not be happier in choosing Jessica! Our wedding would not have been the same without her. She was with us since 8:30 in the mo...
rning until 12:30am. Jessica made everything flow so nicely at the wedding. Everything was so organized and put together. All of the little details I would have forgotten about were taken care of. Our parents and families got to just relax, have fun, and enjoy the wedding. If you decide to choose Jessica as well, you will be making the best decision!
Jessica did an incredible job coordinating my brother's wedding. She organized a detailed plan for all to follow and walked everyone through the plan multiple times so all were tho...

wedding day, as one of the bachelorettes. Jessica was also very kind and a gem to be around. I’d hire her for my wedding too! Thanks Jessica and Brenda!
Jessica was the coordinator for my best friends wedding this past weekend, and she did a fantastic job running the show behind the scenes. Her and her assistant are very personable...
, she brought a basket of necessities incase someone forgot things they needed. You can instantly tell she has great experience in the wedding industry. I wish I had her for my own wedding years ago. Would highly recommend.
I can’t possibly have enough great things to say about Jessica. She is absolutely fabulous and I could not have had the most perfect wedding without her. I just got married on Satu...

I had a lot of requests and she was able to get all of them in the timeline and made them all happen on the day of! I will definitely be using Jessica again if I have another big event. She is without a doubt worth every penny. Thank you again Jessica for everything!

Jessica has coordinated two events for us. Our wedding a few years back was the first event and most recently, this year (2021) our daughter’s quinceañera!
I throw parties all the...
time and have and each time I’ve said it’s so much work. When Jessica did our wedding it was great. It was a small event and it ran smoothly thanks to Jessica. She was great and we enjoyed and loved our wedding. But the true testimony’s comes years later when we celebrated our daughter’s 15th birthday. It was a bigger event, during a time where the world seemed uncertain. That’s when I really understood, right down to the core, the value Jessica brings.
The detail from day one! The organization! The momentum to keep everything flowing all the way down to the very end of the event!
Jessica sees your vision and makes it a reality!
She is truely valuable
I don’t even know where to begin with Jessica from Events by J.Design!! I think RIDE OR DIE sums it up.
Jessica was there with us through it all. My husband and I hired Jessica in...
Fall of 2019, we were supposed to get married August 2020, but due to the pandemic we got married June 2021.
Jessica was there when our venue went bankrupt and took our money in January 2020. As you can imagine I was a mess but Jessica quickly got to work and helped us find another venue.
A couple months later I was a mess again. This time it was because I had to postpone the wedding due to the pandemic. Jessica checked in often to make sure we were doing well. Again she was there through it all and reassured us that our day would come and would be perfect.
After all the craziness, my husband and I were finally able to get married in June of 2021. All I can say is that my day was perfect and Jessica had a lot to do with that. Jessica took care of things that I had no idea about. The craziest part is I didn’t find out about the little hiccups until a week later!!
Some examples:
1. Apparently, my cake was melting on one side and she made sure the cake lady came back to fix it.
2. I had a little family drama during the rehearsal/ wedding and Jessica handled it very professionally. I didn’t even certain things had happened until a week later!! (She handled it) God bless Jessica because I don’t think that’s what she signed up for and she was amazing with our family.
3. I’m so used to cleaning up after parties and I was having so much fun I forgot about it. When I realized I went to go ask my mom and she mentioned that Jessica had already picked up all of my things from my bouquet to DIY decor I had brought to the venue. The cleaning process was flawless.
4. Fourth thing- and this is for my Latina brides. I’m so used to having my mom and my aunts do things at our weddings or quinceañeras. I kid you not my mom was pretty much sitting the whole time and enjoyed the wedding because Jessica took care of everything. Even one of my mom’s friend noticed and told my mom that she was blown away that she (my mom) was able to sit and enjoy the wedding and didn’t have to do any running around.
5. The fifth and I think biggest thing is, Jessica’s timeline was perfect!! We weren’t late for anything!! (Mind you I had 10 bridesmaids) Literally everything was done on time from the hair/make up to first look.
I honestly could keep going. Jessica did so many thing that blew me away. I would recommend Jessica to anyone I know! She truly is professional, organized, caring AND she’s bilingual which was important to me. I really don’t know what my day would have looked like without Jessica. If you’re looking for a day of coordinator this is your sign, hire Jessica!!
Thank you Jessica for everything!

She was in contact with everyone involved in my wedding day (bridal party, parents, church, vendors, etc!) and helped to make a detailed itinerary from our rehearsal dinner through our wedding. She was quick to communicate and was easy to bounce ideas around with! My parents were hesitant to get a coordinator because they weren’t sure we would need one & now they both couldn’t recommend one enough thanks to Jessica! My wedding day started EARLY (like 5 AM early!) and Jessica was there contacting vendors, keeping the hair and makeup on schedule, and answering any questions that anyone had! If anything went wrong on my wedding, I had no idea about it because she truly handled it all! Could not recommend her enough & I am hopeful we will work with her again when my younger sisters get married!
To say that Jessica goes above and beyond does not begin to cover the force of nature this woman is, the order, calm, love and caring she will bring to your wedding day. Normal wed...
dings are complex, stressful, very busy and often emotional - but my wedding was not a normal wedding. As it was, it was more complex than usual. A 150 guest tent wedding in a private home, where everything from bathrooms to an improvised catering situation had to be created from scratch. It was a spectacular, dream day that went off without a hitch thanks to Jessica’s meticulous planning and coordinating. Then, in the middle of the dance floor, things took an unexpected turn for the tragic. One of our guests had a very, very serious medical emergency. The dancing and confetti suddenly turned into paramedics and sirens. Jessica went from coordinating a late night snack to coordinating medical personnel, evacuating our guests, consoling distraught family members and cancelling the next day’s festivities with the calm and efficiency of an army general. The next day, as my family focused on attending the ICU, she quietly and expertly dismantled everything- had all of vendors pick up their set ups on a holiday and ahead of schedule, and in a show of efficiency and caring that I struggle to sufficiently acknowledge, she took care of every detail relating to our wedding so my family would not have to worry about it during a heartbreaking time. I owe Jessica a debt of gratitude forever, and cannot stress enough what a combination of badass, efficiency and loving, caring, support she is. I would recommend Jessica a thousand times, and wish I could hire her to run every aspect of my life.
I was going to wait to write my review until I got back from my honeymoon, but I'm sitting on a plane tearing up thinking about how perfect my day was and that was all thanks to Je...
ssica!
She was with me from 6 in the morning until 1 in the morning. She made sure we stayed on schedule and EVERYTHING went off without a Hitch. She was my right and left hand. She thought of things leading up to the wedding that I didn't even consider. Because of her, I had 0 worries on my wedding day. I was able to enjoy my entire day and take every second in!
She also has a team of people who she can bring in to help set up and take down... which honestly is SOOOO helpful to ensure you aren't stressed about it. Jessica also has a background in interior design which came in clutch for me because while I have random ideas in my head I don't know how to execute them and I'm not creative at all. She listened to my vision and MADE IT HAPPEN!
She was able to negotiate with my venue and vendors and make my timeline flawless. My hair stylist cancelled 6 days prior and Jessica had back ups for me within 24 hours! She is well known in the industry and has sooo many connections which makes her that much more valuable as a part of your wedding team.
One of the best moments she gave me was when I was standing alone with my dad about to walk down the aisle and she said "are you ready? Take a moment to remember this moment". I was so ready to get down the aisle but that precious moment with my dad is one I will cherish for forever.
Thank you so much for everything Jessica!! You're amazing and I don't know what I would have done without you!
P.s. I initially thought I didn't need a wedding coordinator haha... don't be like me. Make the investment and you WILL NOT regret it!
Jessica is so passionate about her work and so detailed she is a must have for your wedding! Every little thing was covered on the big day and I didn’t have to worry about anything...
. She made sure every vendor had what they needed and everyone in the wedding party knew what to do when. She is professional and reliable and so nice! I was also so nervous before my ceremony but she helped guide me along great. The reception went without hiccups and helped with making sure I had my items to take home even before I woke up. It was literally perfect and was the best day of my life, and she made that possible. Gonna miss her ☺️
We originally had been planning our wedding ourselves for 2 1/2 years. When the time was getting closer we realized there were things we wouldn’t be able to do ourselves the day of...
, so we hired Jessica. She made the rest of the planning process so easy for us. She took care of every detail, even the ones we never even thought about.
Jessica is with you from the very start. She was with me since 6 am and stayed till the very end at 12 am. I had nothing to worry about because she was there to take care of it herself (ex: my button broke on my dress and she fixed it for me, or when my bustle strings fell off and she created a bustle out of safety pins).
Jessica is punctual, professional, VERY thorough, and overall just fun to have around. We highly recommend her services. My husband at the end of the night after we said goodbye to her said “that was the BEST thing we did for this wedding. Without her we wouldn’t of been able to pull it off.”
Thank you Jessica for making our day perfect ❤️.

I cannot say enough positive things about working with Jessica as my day-of wedding coordinator. Even though my venue had an on-site coordinator, I was really looking for someone t...
o handle the day from A-Z, and Jessica did just that! Jessica is with you every step of the way on your big day -- from first thing in the morning to seeing you off at the end of the evening! I felt completely relaxed the day of our wedding, and was truly able to just enjoy the day. Even when we ran into a minor issue with one of our vendors, Jessica jumped right in and handled it with total professionalism.
It is clear that Jessica takes pride in what she does and is genuinely passionate in making sure that her brides are taken care of. My family was so impressed by her, and even my husband (who initially was not keen on hiring a coordinator) was absolutely SOLD on her services by the time all was said and done.
Thank you, Jessica, for helping us have such a beautiful day!
Jessica was the right choice for day-of coordination for our Chicago wedding. We were looking for someone who had a strong track record of coordinating weddings; in addition to som...
eone who is bilingual, as many family members on my now-husband’s side of the family who attended are primarily Spanish-speaking. Jessica showed genuine care and concern for our once in a lifetime event (it was nice to have someone who didn’t treat your special day as just another job); and it was 100% worth the investment to have someone to manage all of the million details that comprise your wedding day. I recommend Jessica without reservation!
