Jason Mitchell Kahn & Co.

Jason did an amazing job making all our dream come true. We had a TON of logistical and operational goals to make our wedding the way we wanted it to be, and Jason went above and beyond to work with all of our vendors to make everything magical and seamless, ensuring that our vision and our "usness" was the priority throughout the entire process. Cannot recommend enough. If you are thinking about hiring Jason and team, do it. If you are picking between Jason and team and another planner, pick Jason and team :)

Jason and his team were everything we dreamed of and more!! My husband and I were wowed from the start by his personal approach - he really took the time to get to know us as a couple before crafting the perfect wedding weekend for us, and it showed. His ideas turned our wedding into an intensely personalized and personal affair, with creative touches and thoughtful elements throughout. Our biggest fear was having a cookie-cutter celebration, and he crafted a next-level embodiment of our life and love that everyone said was “so US!” Funky decor, an interactive ceremony, a dynamic timeline - he totally understood our energy and crafted a weekend to match. Beyond his endless creativity, he and his team handled every last tiny little detail the whole way through. We consulted on the fun stuff and they completely handled the minutiae of wedding planning - we knew every detail was in safe hands and were grateful to be spared the backend convos about parking, storage, chair widths, AV capabilities, etc without a second thought. Finally Jason was such a supportive, caring, and truly thoughtful partner to have throughout this process. He was an angel and an ally during the typical bumps of wedding planning - tricky venues, family drama - and was especially attentive regarding our ceremony. Our celebrant, a poet and wordsmith (and the groom’s older sister!) had never married a couple before and was looking for guidance; Jason went above and beyond helping her craft an entire ceremony, editing drafts, fielding questions and ultimately ensuring her confidence - and of course, a beautiful final product. Thank you team JMK!!!

"Jason Mitchell Kahn and his team are nothing short of extraordinary! From bringing our design dreams to life with multiple options to curating a dream team of vendors, their creativity and dedication are unmatched. Jason's specialization in Gay weddings resonated with us, and the flawless execution on our big day left us in awe. Special kudos to Alex for his calming presence on the day and Dani for impeccable organization. Working with this phenomenal team was an absolute joy – our wedding was a magical experience thanks to their expertise!"

Jason and his team are just the best. Life savers, even. Every detail is accounted for and every request we made was accepted and created by Jason and the entire team. JMK helped plan our wedding with only a few months notice AND while I was working abroad. (I know, insane, right?) We could not have had the wedding of our dreams without them. We threw out weird ideas and they made them happen. We felt supported and taken care of the day of our wedding in a way that I never knew was possible. We have a very special place in our hearts for this wonderful team of people who we relied on during what could have been a very stressful time. And it honestly wasn’t stressful. Because they took care every detail before the wedding and were there for us and our entire family on the day of the wedding. Seriously. JMK is worth every penny. Working with them is one of the great decisions we’ve made as a couple and we are forever grateful to Jason and his incredible team. We recommend them a thousand times over.

As an English couple getting married in New York we had a lot to navigate along the way, and we felt that Jason and his team were there at every single stage to make the whole thing a smooth and enjoyable process. We wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend him to any other couple. As two grooms we had a lot of our own ideas for the wedding and were able to identify and source many of the spaces & vendors that we needed, but Jason really helped us bring those different pieces together into a wonderful cohesive experience - always helping us take things to the next level. Jason and his team really came into their own in the last month or so of the wedding - we could easily have been overwhelmed by everything coming together, especially from afar, but his team really took over all the contacts, practicalities and brought everything seemlessly together. We loved working with Jason and felt that by the day itself he was just another of our friends who we were glad to have spending the day with us - his small team faded into the background and everything went perfectly to schedule. We were able to totally relax and enjoy things without once having to worry about practicalities. Overall we had a fantastic wedding at the Bowery Hotel, and entertained our guests the day either side, and we couldn't have done any of it without Jason. We didn't keep things simple - we had different vendors providing flowers, lighting, catering... and unusually half a dozen different music providers. You wouldn't have known it wasn't just one team though. We did a lot of the selection & planning ourselves but that was very much our own choice and how we scoped the service - we wouldnt hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

We had an extremely challenging and complex wedding to plan/execute, internationally, and Jason & Co. made everything we asked for happen. Some of the best parts about working with JMK are just him and his team as people and their creativity.

Our wedding would not have been half as good as it was without Jason. I truly cannot say enough kind things about him. Over the course of planning our wedding, he was a guide, an advisor, a manager and a friend. He really understood what we wanted our wedding to be, what made it special, and what made it "us." He had so many fantastic ideas for how to make it just a little more meaningful, or more fun for our guests, or more genuine. And on the day of, he was on top of EVERYTHING! I never needed to worry about a single thing, and when I DID worry (hey, it's my wedding day - I couldn't help it!) he had the most reassuring "girl, relax, I've got this" energy that let me go back to enjoying my (perfect) party. He did not miss a beat. Also, the suit he wore to match our venue was to DIE for. Do not hesitate to hire this man and his wonderful team! Thank you Jason for making our day so very special!

We could not recommend Jason and his team more! From the very beginning to the end of our wedding it was a seamless process. Jason was understanding, kind and knew how to approach each hurdle with grace and confidence. He is personable and funny and dresses to the nines - we truly loved him. Jason also knows how to throw a party and have the most fun - even with us which we loved! It was a perfect day. Thank you Jason & co

Jason and his team are top notch! We had very high expectations for our wedding weekend and the team delivered above and beyond expectations. We had a larger guest count and it was a lot to manage, but JMK & Co came with a great vendor portfolio and delivered three days of incredible events. We learned that planning a wedding is certainly a collaboration with many, many decisions. JMK & Co kept things on track and focused and continually went back to the drawing board to meet our many specific requests. Our guests were blown away by the special, personal, and fun weekend. Many guests told us it was the best wedding they’d ever attended! We also appreciate the JMK Team's approach to working with vendors who support DEI in their workforce.

If you're thinking about hiring Jason and team DO IT! Really truly the best.  My wife(!) and I wanted a small intimate wedding that was super "us" but we are incredibly busy people. We decided we wanted a wedding in Los Angeles, where we met, despite living on the other side of the country. From the first meeting Jason was incredibly reassuring that our small little dream wedding was not only possible, but completely doable. He helped us find amazing vendors, and everything was absolutely perfect. Our friends all remarked how "us" the wedding was, even though we had to do so little to make it happen. Jason listened to what we wanted and made it come to life. The day flew by and there wasn't even a second of stress in the entire planning process. And we were the worst type of clients! Very opinionated with no idea exactly what we wanted. But the team figured out exactly what we meant by our very vague descriptions. Nearly six months later and friends and family still say what a great experience the day was. Thanks to Jason, Michael, and the rest of the team we didn't experience any wedding stress, and we have amazing photos, videos, and memories of our perfect day. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Jason and his team took care of all details, kept us on schedule and made everything go by seamlessly. Highly recommended.

Jason was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Professional, comforting when needed (and it is needed!), practical, experienced....really the whole 9 yards. My wife and I cannot recommend him enough...If you have the opportunity to work with Jason, you should!

Jason is, quite simply, the GOAT. In the process of planning our amazing wedding he became a lifelong friend and practically a member of our family. Excels at tailoring his planning to your style through active listening, high EQ, and really getting to know you (and caring!). He also has amazing attention to detail, excellent judgment, and the patience and tenacity to wrangle vendors. His superpower, though, is his heart of gold which will ensure any wedding he touches will be full of meaning, love, and joy.

There are no words for the dedication, attention to detail and absolute FABULOUSNESS of Jason Mitchell Kahn and his entire team of wedding wizards. From our introductory call, through the entire planning process and up to the exquisite execution of our ceremony/event, we felt entirely seen and cared for by this thoughtful and adept team. Jason was particularly amazing at helping us shape our non-traditional queer wedding dreams (with MGM trolley themes and Dolly Parton & Skeletor avatars!) into a reality. No idea was "too much" or "too personal". No detail was overlooked. And our guests got to experience a truly unique and personalized event from our hearts, that was also EXPERTLY executed. Jason also navigated our day masterfully, protectively shielding us from any small problems that we didn't need to be concerned with, and taking wise initiatives to see our vision to the finish line... and doing so with abundant charm and style. We are also grateful that he made sure we were fed and had appropriate libations throughout the day! The team communicated regularly with our many vendors... and that communication was always with professional kindness AND firmness -- ensuring success for all parties. Hands down, Jason Mitchell Kahn & Company was the BEST investment we made toward our wedding day! And we would hire this team again in a nano-second. HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

We engage Jason to plan our wedding before we announce it to our family and friends. From start to finish, he was the fly on the wall on every decision and a guide we needed in planning a momentous day. He added some personal touch and created an exquisite event that our family and friends have come to relish. Thank you, JMK, for helping create the wedding of our dreams. Nick & Edafe, July, 22.

Having Jason as our wedding planner was one of the best decisions we made during our entire wedding planning process! We booked Jason (and Dani) in March 2019 for our April 2020 Wedding Date in Upstate NY. When everything happened, we were about 50 days out from our wedding. Jason and Dani were right by our side (on Zoom at the time hahaha) through the entire emotional process of postponing our wedding. We ended up having to postpone an additional three more times and changed our Venue to here in NYC. Jason was essential in helping us through this entire journey. His knowledge of the industry is remarkable and he was able to help us find vendors that aligned with our vision and budget. During the planning process, he provides so many resources to keep everything organized! There are so many factors that go into planning the wedding (when to send invites, when to order the décor, etc.) and Jason helps you through every step of the process. Jason and Dani turn your wedding into a well-oiled machine and as a Type A Bride on her fourth wedding date I was spinning; but I knew they had my back so nothing would get missed! The team is there for you every step of the way with any questions you may have. Not even just about planning specific things. Wedding planning can be incredibly overwhelming, so many puzzle pieces to fit together with so much emotion, time, and money attached to it. You want the pros at JMK guiding you! Jason’s eye for design is impeccable, he knows how to add those magical touches to bring your event to the next level. As a leader in the industry, he and his entire team will make sure your big day is seamless! So many little things can get crazy on the big day and Jason keeps you smiling and on target the whole time. He dealt with all the vendors on the day setting up and cleaning up so we did not need to worry about a thing. Jason and his team are just fantastic people! They are absolutely the people you want in your corner and by your side on your wedding day! I cannot recommend Jason Mitchell Kahn enough!

We can’t even begin to describe what a delight it was to work with Jason and his team. He made what seemed impossible, possible. Jason had the answer to questions we didn’t even know to ask, which was huge. As two people who have never been married, we didn’t know which way was up sometimes. From being a sounding board of ideas, to having an incredible list of resources and fellow vendors, Jason had our bases covered from the very beginning. He helped us with any and all decisions, small or big. We are so grateful to have had a planner with such a well of knowledge but most importantly an amazing attitude. We walked away from every meeting with Jason having a better clearer understanding of our wedding story and knowing that alongside this team it was not only possible…it was happening! That was an incredible feeling. Our wedding day would not have been possible without his guidance, his radiant positive attitude and his abundant good vibes. Jason was essential in our wedding journey and we are eternally grateful for him and the JMK team! If you have the chance to work with JMK&Co I highly encourage you take the opportunity. I am not sure you will find a more enjoyable, loving and passionate group of humans to help lead you into your next journey! L & R

We had a fabulous time working with Jason and his team for our Spring 2022 wedding in Brooklyn. Jason fully embraced our specific vision and was a MAJOR help in handling vendors and contracts and idea execution. He also made the month of the wedding a breeze and we were so glad to have our big day in his very very capable hands. We can't imagine what it would have been like without him!

Meghan W I'm truly unsure of how to put our experience with Jason, into words. It is not an exaggeration to say that we would not have had our dream wedding, (let alone any wedding at all), without Jason. Shortly after getting engaged, my now-husband and I realized just how vital a wedding planner would be for us, (we were extremely overwhelmed with even the beginning stages of planning a NYC wedding in the post-COVID world). We interviewed numerous individuals and within minutes of virtually connecting with Jason, our search was over. His warmth, kindness, experience and reputation were immediately palpable. He completely nailed our vision, (even after speaking with us only briefly), and my husband and I were instantly comfortable with Jason. He was able to source truly unbelievable vendors for us and was always accessible. He was absolutely vital in helping to navigate ever-changing COVID restrictions and made the ENTIRE process seamless, enjoyable and stress-free, (for both of us and our entire family as well). It has been months since our wedding and we are still hearing about what an incredible night it was, along with what an incredible person Jason is. We consider Jason truly an expert within the wedding industry and have recommended him numerous times. We consider ourselves lucky to have gotten the chance to work with Jason and also consider him a dear friend. Do not hesitate to hire Jason and his team -- it is a decision you will not regret. Jason, thank you for giving Spencer and me our dream wedding and the priceless gift of memories to last a lifetime.

Planning a wedding brings two families together and working with Jason is basically like bringing a third family into the mix. From day one, Jason brought a sense of authority and rigor that delivered us a sense of calm. He made tasks enjoyable, reminded us to be present through it all and alongside his team, delivered more than we expected. As two brides, he designed space for us that delivered an environment where the joy and love in the room was tangible. JMK for president.

We were on a budget and hesitant to spend the extra money on a planner, but I can honestly say that Jason was by far our best investment. He single handedly made our wedding the most magical night ever and helped us stick to our budget with his excessive knowledge of vendors, venues, and all things Wedding. He was incredibly communicative throughout the entire process and made my husband and I feel totally taken care of. I’ve referred him to multiple friends already and they have all had the same experience. If you’re getting a planner, go with Jason. There is no one better!

Hiring Jason was the best thing my wife and I did for our wedding. Jason is INCREDIBLE to work with - kind, friendly, organized, and extremely knowledgeable. He and his team helped us through every step of our planning and preparations - and he helped guide us through a lot of the little details that we may have missed had he not been there. On the day of, Jason was an incredible maestro for the entire event. Because of him, everything went extremely smoothly and my wife and I were able to just sit back and enjoy our special day. Lastly, Jason really cares about what he does. I never thought we'd need the services of a wedding planner, but I can honestly say that our wedding would not have been what it was without Jason. Best decision ever.

There aren't quite enough words to describe how fabulous and special Jason Mitchell Kahn and his team are. We truly could not have planned our wedding without them. We brought Jason and Co. onto our wedding team about 8 months before our wedding, after it became clear that we wouldn't be able to handle all the details required to create the wedding we wanted- and boy are we glad we did! From the preparation, to the site visits, to the day of the wedding- Jason knocked it out of the park. He is an amazing communicator, creative and kind: all the things you want when planning a once in a lifetime event. The day was more special than we could have ever imagined, in large part due to JMK & Co. We say this without an ounce of hesitation: we can't recommend. them enough!

Hands down, THE BEST wedding planner out there! Jason was truly a gift to have along our side throughout the wedding planning process and through execution on the big day. Wedding planning is extremely stressful, but we felt at such ease knowing that Jason was there thinking of every detail and making sure everything went off perfectly. He also thought of so many nice touches to make our wedding special and memorable. The best decision we made when planning our wedding was hiring Jason and his team. Worth every penny! I honestly can't say enough, except hire this man! You'll be glad you did.

Jason was the utmost professional and helped us through the craziness of going through with a wedding in Fall of 2020. Despite not having the largest guest list, the degree of difficulty was quite high given all of the novel considerations with COVID and Jason was able to handle all the curve-balls that were thrown our way such as having to change venues with less than a month to go! What more can we say? Highly recommended.

Jason Planned our wedding that took place on June 12, 2021 and it was one of the most beautiful weddings I’ve ever been to. His professionalism can’t be beat! Jason was kind, patient and on top of his game. He helped navigate us through the pandemic and did so smoothly. My husband and I are so happy that we got to work with Jason and that he planned the wedding of our dreams.

We just had our wedding and the day went pretty much seamless. The level of organization for the “run of show” was pretty impressive. Any issue that did come up, Jason and his team jumped into action including going head to head with an unruly priest. They made sure we ate, executed my vision for the wedding to a t, helped bring back our stuff to hotel room, no ask was too big. Also their level of professionalism was impressive. The JMK team are genuinely great people that you would want to spend time planning something somewhat stressful like a wedding with.

Jason is the very best! He was such a lifesaver to us throughout our entire experience- especially as we had to postpone/pivot due to Covid. He is thoughtful, charming, extremely detail-oriented, and went above and beyond his duties to make our long-awaited wedding weekend so special. It was honestly like he could read my mind, and knew exactly how to handle tough situations with vendors and family. We can't say enough good things about Jason- he is an absolute pleasure to be around and a no-brainer to work with!

It’s hard to understand the importance of a wedding planner until all hell breaks loose. The week of our wedding the weather forecast was incredible, all radar showed no signs of any rain or storms in the area. So on the Wednesday before our wedding, we released the hold on the emergency tent our venue required us to have. On Thursday evening, Jason called and calmly asked if I had some time to chat - he told us the band was concerned about weather and would need to ensure their equipment was covered. Long story short - my fiance was in tears, there was not a storm in sight, but we had to call and get the tent back. Jason took care of absolutely everything - ensuring we still had access to the clear top tent we wanted, lighting and chandeliers for inside of it, and enough greenery and draping to make sure it didn’t look like we had thrown it up as a last resort. (Ha!) It poured the entire morning of our wedding and finally broke just as we were about to have our first look and begin pictures. I share all of that to say, without Jason there to help us navigate, everything we spent a year planning would have been a soggy disaster. We can talk all day about his creativity, his attention to detail, his ability to listen to scattered plans about color schemes and grand hopes of unicorns and confetti cannons (oh wait, that happened), and his ability to breathe life into an event - but what it really comes down to when you hire Jason is execution. There are a million things that can go any which way when you’re planning a wedding (or any event for that matter) but he truly had a handle on all of them. He took every opportunity to manage and problem solve without involving us - which gave us the chance to enjoy our day without knowing half of what was going on behind the scenes. Now, this may sound stressful to some, but I promise you that over the time you spend working with him, your conversations will feel like they are with a friend and he will truly take the time to KNOW who you are as a couple - so on your day, he can run the behind the scenes magic, making the choices he is already knows you would make - giving you the chance to have the singular moment in your life you will never have the opportunity to create again. We worked with Jason from South Carolina while he was in both New York and LA - and we never felt like he was out of touch or across the country from us. There is no question that he will be a part of any event we throw in the future. No review or recommendation could ever put into words what he means to us and the experience he gave us for our wedding weekend.

Jason was such an incredible boon. He was so accessible and was always brimming with great ideas. He made the whole process easy and was always fun! We are so grateful that we had him for our wedding!

Jason is an absolute dream. Our wedding started out as a "normal" wedding, and planning that with Jason was easy and relaxing. Jason is creative and thoughtful and never lets the wedding stress snowball start rolling. THEN when things got COVID crazy, Jason did not disappoint. He stayed cool and practical and worked with us to figure out how we wanted to handle our unique situation. He helped us come up with ways to make our Zoom guests feel included, i.e. sending individual champagne bottles to all of them, and it made the day so special. Jason wasn't able to be at our wedding in-person as we are in LA and he was stuck in NYC, but he made sure to set us up with one of his colleagues and she was truly amazing the week and day of. Jason was wonderful about communicating with us and her so it felt like it had been part of the plan the whole time. It felt like Jason was there every step of the way, FaceTiming into our important vendor meetings and throughout the wedding weekend, making sure we felt supported. Because of Jason, what could have been a very difficult time was seamless and unique and fun and a truly beautiful day. We can't wait to plan our big post-COVID party with Jason as soon as we can!! Especially so we can see him in one of his famous wedding suits!!

I hired Jason to be my day coordinator for my small intimate wedding in Brooklyn last November. I had talked to a few day coordinators and I just felt right away Jason got it, he understood that I was no fuss bride and really just didn’t know what I was doing nor was I into really planning a wedding while working a very stressful full time job. Before my wedding he took control with coordinating with the musicians and the officiant and any last minute details with the venue and was there when I needed help deciding on things. On the day of my wedding he was great, so nice and so personable and best of all he took care of everything….I didn’t have to worry about a single thing on my day. Everything ran so smoothly. I couldn’t recommend Jason enough. He will make planning your wedding so easy and he is really there for you.

Working with Jason was an absolute dream. We had been planning on having a larger wedding (which we will still have eventually, with Jason again as planner) but then Covid struck. My husband and I were pretty devastated, but thankfully Jason carefully and calmly walked us through our options to still have an event on our chosen day. The event we ended up having completely exceeded our expectations and having Jason there to make sure everything went smoothly and to coordinate with our vendors took so much stress off our plates. Jason also has such a wonderful eye for detail and design. When I first saw that table he had put together for our Covid friendly reception dinner I almost started crying as it looked exactly like what I had wanted originally for a larger wedding. Jason is a wedding planning STAR and I look forward to working with him again when we can finally have our larger wedding party.

Jason Mitchell Kahn & Co. was professional, punctual, creative, accommodating and most of all loving and passionate! We would highly recommend his services to anyone looking to tie the knot!

Stop right there. You can not get married without Jason Mitchell. It has taken me an embarrassingly long time to write this review. There is no way these words can convey how vital Jason was to our wedding. Yes, he takes care of all the details. Yes, he manages the day of stress. Yes, he walks you through what you need to decide, when you need to decide it and whose opinions need to be considered in the deciding. He masters all those things you expect from a wedding planner. He executes them flawlessly. But Jason is not just a wedding planner, he is a wedding storyteller. When he meets with you and your partner, he gets to know you as individuals and as a couple. He listens to your love story and then he begins to plan a work of art (your wedding) that somehow exudes you - your relationship, the essence of the "us" you are creating - and invites your guests to be witness to that story on the big day. He doesn't accomplish this with a storyteller's typical medium, words. He does it through the emotional flow of the ceremony, the music that welcomes you into the reception, the arc of the toasts/speeches. All those essential wedding moments are so carefully planned to let the entire room of family and friends feel the power and unique character of this couple's love. 5 years later, I still have guests at our wedding tell us that our wedding was the best wedding they ever attended. Our wedding was fun, celebratory and so very us. Jason is the only person I know who can grasp so precisely what makes you you and bring the beauty of that out for all of your family and friends to enjoy. And not to forget a very important point. Jason will make sure it's the best party of your life!

Simply put Jason Kahn will make your dream wedding come true—executing on every detail from venue selection, vendor selection, and of course all of the organization and design along the way. Starting our wedding planning process, we had no idea how complex planning such an event could be—Jason was with us every step of the way. At the early planning stages, he listened to us and helped us select the best vendors to make our day a reality. He ensured that we were on track for various milestones—including sending out Save the Dates and invitations, among many others. Fast forwarding to the few weeks ahead of the wedding and of course the wedding weekend—he made every detail come together like a well rehearsed Broadway production (makes sense as he is also a playwright!). He allowed us to be guests, not just at our wedding, but during the whole wedding weekend. His assistant Dani—is also a star in her own right, she really made our “day of” go so smoothly, and helped us organize our families. Jason is the triple threat of event planning—he has the ability to design, source, and execute on the wedding of your dreams. Whether is a gay Jewish wedding, a straight wedding, or something in between – Jason is your man. We cannot say enough wonderful things about him. Prior to our wedding we had an excellent partner in helping us execute the wedding of our dreams, and now we have a great friend!

When we first met Jason, we told him we wanted to throw a kick-ass party, and. 15 months later, we had a kick-ass wedding. With the help of Jason Mitchell Kahn & Co, we had the wedding of our dreams; it was a truly magical day. We cannot imagine what planning this wedding would have been like without Jason, he seamlessly guided us through the process. We knew that we didn’t need to worry because Jason had it under control. There are so many details we didn’t know existed! Jason connected us to amazing professionals and helped find local vendors near Westchester (we got married in Rye) who were familiar with our venue. Jason is a wizard on keeping track of vendors and communicating our vision - and helping us stay in budget. Throughout the planning process we had complete confidence in Jason, knowing he would see us through to the finish line with everything accomplished. He magically stays on top of every little detail. We had an amazing wedding that we will remember forever; it was accomplished without a single fight or breakdown thanks to Jason Mitchell Kahn & Co.

Jason is the Jedi master of “the Big Day” — in every way he guided and with us explored this very personal, meaningful and expensive ritual. We loved his New Yorker sense of service & efficiency, especially when it came to vendor selection or putting an itinerary together, but equally we loved and relied on Jason’s realness and organic feel for timing and flow. Trust me, it’s the magic that you will want at your wedding, which only the experience and LA cool JMK&Co. affords. Jason and his reliable team are the wedding gift you owe to yourself and your future spouse.

Jason is a dream to work with. Not only did he make the process fun leading up to the wedding, but he absolutely created a space that was stunning and gave us the chance to enjoy our day. I tend to worry (a-lot, as does my mother)...with Jason at the helm, I just knew it was going to be perfect - and it was! As for my mother, I think she would have married Jason herself. We were all so calm because he put us to ease with his tireless planning, constant professionalism, extensive knowledge and genuine personality. We started the journey for a destination wedding in Palm Springs, a city I had been to once and my husband not at all. We started with a tour of several venues in one day. All were great, but of course the one we loved most was out of the budget. Jason got to the heart of what we liked about that property and went to work. He found us the most amazing venue that checked all of our boxes - and some we didn’t even know we had! He coordinated another visit to that property and we instantly fell in love. From there it was a super efficient process with Jason managing the various vendors, budget and keeping us on track leading up to the 3 days of wedding festivities. The day of the wedding was beautiful...and about 20 degrees cooler than we had expected. But not to fear! Jason coordinated heaters and our guests received pashminas at each chair. I know there were fire drills, but I didn’t know about ANY of them while they were happening (and still to this day). Jason protected us from any possible stress and took care of everything. We could not be happier with our wedding and know for sure it would not have been as wonderful without Jason’s involvement. We could not recommend him more highly...aside from choosing your person, hiring Jason may be the best decision you’ll make regarding your wedding. THANK YOU, JASON...from the bottom of our hearts.

Jason was totally on-board when it came to planning our untraditional wedding. He was an expert at anticipating and navigating the difficult logistics that accompanied using an unexpected venue, and his guidance was indispensable to my partner and I, when our ideas of the "perfect wedding" didn't always align. It was a wonderful experience working with Jason; I would recommend him to my dearest friends!

Jason was an amazing wedding planner! He made sure we were all set for our big day and worked with us every step of the way. On the day of our wedding, he was the best. My wife was not stressed, we knew where to go and where to be at all times. I’ve been to a lot of weddings and none were nearly this smooth and flawless. Jason was awesome with our bridal party and families. I was so happy to have him support us through the whole process and weekend!

I don’t have the words to describe how great it was to work with Jason. From start to finish, he was there to help me every step of the way, from venue visits to last second bridezilla phone calls. His advice was spot on and he made the weekend run incredibly smoothly. I trusted him completely and was able to relax knowing Jason had everything under control. He was very hands on and full service during the entire process. I couldn’t imagine using anyone else but Jason and his team. Highly recommend!

Jason is hands down THE BEST. He helped us to plan our rustic-chic fall wedding upstate and we couldn't have been happier with our decision to hire him. We quickly learned there were many difficulties associated with throwing a larger wedding in a barn in a small town in the middle of the NY countryside, and he was there to walk us through every step of the way and catch details we may otherwise have missed. He solved problems before we even knew they existed, which is exactly what you want on your wedding day. Needless to say the day of went flawlessly, in large part thanks to Jason. He's smart, quick on his feet, has impeccable attention to detail, and is a true original. But most of all he's a great guy, and someone we were thrilled to invite into one of the most special and joyous days of our lives :)

(I’ll try to type this without tears of joy) Jason was / IS the epitome of professionalism, a tastemaker, an inspired guide and ultimately the comforting voice that hand held us through every maze/step/joy on the road to our special day. Growing up, my husband and I never really considered the thought that having a wedding would be an option. And looking back, I believe that’s why we had such a hard time sorting through our array of ideas – because it wasn’t something we individually had planned all our lives as most people do. So when we finally had the opportunity to partake in this extraordinarily special tradition, we were overwhelmed – first with joy, but secondly with loss as to what we should/needed to do. We both started doing initial planning steps, thinking we were doing what was right by checking those “to-do” lists. Then my husband and I sat down and realized, our lists kept growing because were so excited by what was possible versus what was important. I immediately went onto The Knot and began researching planners – specifically who knew how to help find a couple’s voices and help provide the melody to it. , That’s what Jason did. Luckily I stumbled upon Jason whose resume of events and clientele alone was impressive. I wasn’t sure what to expect from someone who had the high experience that he had and was worried our ideas would be too cluttered. However, in true fashion, Jason came in and helped calm our fears. From our initial meeting, there was an ease that Jason provided. He let us exhale, and just be. We knew he was the right one. That immediately set the tone for how Jason managed the process. Jason provided sage advice, helped us muddle through the specificities that only a seasoned planner would know, was a stern defense when dealing with vendors (and trust me, Jason did that in spades and saved the day), and ultimately provided us the level of project management and style guidance that compares to none. Most importantly, he was with us EVERY STEP of the way – highlighting things we should appreciate, challenging us to review and make decisions with all the information possible, and helping us focus and circle back to what we really want. That’s something that only a season professional could provide. It would be easy to say we got everything we wanted, but with Jason, it was even more special because “we got everything we needed that we didn’t know we needed”. Jason provided a dimple and a wink to every finishing touch, kept the event on brand for us, and ensured us a storybook ending that could only be seen in movie musicals (which by the way, Jason literally ended our evening with a surprise serenade from my favorite musical as we ended the evening – I mean… come on… talk about attention to detail). Thanks Jason for providing a special sparkle to our special day. We hope to work with Jason on more of our family’s future events in the future because the level of service and impeccable taste are beyond measure.

If it were up to me, Jason Michell Kahn will be in charge of all my future weddings. But seriously, I was completely ready to just say no to a wedding and drag my, then, fiancée to city hall and call it a day. I was intimidated about the planning and the cost. Now, I rarely say this, but I was 100% wrong. JMK really mad it easy, painless, and figured out ways to cut costs without sacrificing quality and fun! He was there at every step of the way and made it actually fun to ideate and discuss options. During the planning stages, I really didn’t feel like I did anything and JMK was just going to throw the wedding he wanted, but EVERYONE said how “me” my wedding was. He just got me and my, now, husband and created an extremely personal and magical night that I’ll never forget. Somehow (I’m gonna say witchcraft!) JMK was able to pick up on everything that I would share with him and translate that to an amazing moment or little touch in the decorations. At the wedding itself, he was never two steps away, but was never intrusive…he was there to hold our hands, or slink away into the shadows to let us have so many amazing moments for us. We couldn’t have done this without him and can’t sing his praises loud enough. You would do yourself a big favor to hire him for your wedding or really, any event that needs a exceptional touch.

The absolute best. Jason is calm cool and collected. So knowledgeable and so much fun. Ive recommended him to all my friends (who have been thrilled)!

Jason's attention to detail and his experience as a wedding planner brought things to life at our ceremony and reception that we would have never thought of. He is extremely organized and grounded and kept us both calm and present. He was unobtrusive and warm to our entire family and his connection to vendors and his creative vision is something that truly brought magic to our special day.

Jason and the team at JMK & Co. were everything my husband and I were looking for out of a full-service wedding planning service. From our first concept meeting, Jason clearly *got it*, working with us to identify our aesthetic (providing a great deal of spot-on artistic and creative guidance to two very design-inept lawyers), apply that aesthetic to the venue search for the weekend, and build a unified design and vision for the wedding that put us at the center of all of the decisions and components that mattered to us while taking a huge amount of the details work off our plates. When we walked into our wedding venue the day of our wedding, it was -- quite literally -- exactly what we were hoping for. Beyond concept, Jason and his team handled our team of vendors with ease, managed an unexpected and moderately severe last-minute issue with grace, and were extremely effective in stage managing the actual wedding weekend. We were free to spend the entire weekend with family and friends, confident the show would go off well. This is particularly true for the wedding itself. Throughout the night, Jason dispensed valuable wisdom, wrangled family, guests, and vendors, and kept us on schedule (and hydrated!). It's also worth noting that we never felt pushed to increase the budget, nor directed towards a particular vendor. Jason is up front about relationships he has with vendors during the selection process, which we felt were often key in helping to make our (and his) vision reality. In an industry designed to take advantage of wide-eyed grooms, he was entirely above board and a critical resource. Jason is also a dream to work with on a personal level. We could not be happier with our decision to trust him and his team with our wedding.

Every part of the process with Jason was immensely enjoyable--from pre-wedding planning to our festivities throughout the big weekend. He found us extraordinary vendors (band, florist, photographer, etc) that suited our every taste and wish. With his guiding hand and support, we were able to create our dream wedding to experience this momentous experience with our loved ones. Jason has been an extraordinary force in our lives, and we have been reminded of this as we re-live our wedding through its beautiful images and memories. Thank you, Jason!

Can’t rave enough about Jason! From the moment we met I knew he would be the one to make our wedding vision come to life and he did just that and more. Since we were planning an out of state wedding Jason was key to ensuring it all ran smoothly. He was the perfect mixture of spreadsheets, schedules and facts that my fiancé needed and fun energy that I was looking for (after all shouldn’t planning your wedding be FUN!) Jason helped find amazing vendors who were all talented and very fair in pricing. He was the prefect middle man between us and them and navigated any tricky or sticky issue with tact. He helped us create a wonderful experience for both us and our wedding guests for the entire weekend. There wasn’t one time he said no to anything we threw at him and he always had helpful ideas, insights and suggestions. Most importantly day of he was poised, uber professional and calm, which helped keep the day relaxed and enjoyable for everyone. So many of our guests came up to share how impressed they were with him. My main goal going into my wedding was that I wanted to leave feeling like I had the best day of my life, and by working with Jason I did just that. He helped me bring my dream picture of that day to life and then gave me the confidence to relax and enjoy it because I knew it was all being ran by the best possible hands! It was the best day ever! He is a must work with!

Jason made our wedding beyond a dream come true! He really listened to our desires and tastes to make the wedding specifically US. He also managed and organized the whole process brilliantly along the way. Working with Jason and his company is the best choice for any one who wants to guarantee their day will be perfect. Also he's a delight to be around too!

Jason made planning a wedding almost enjoyable! He really listened to our vision for the day and made it happen without us having to worry about a thing. We would hire Jason again in a heartbeat!

Jason was AMAZING!!! From the first moment we met him (when he came to our apartment) throughout our entire planning process he was communicative, reliable, had great ideas and listened to our ideas. Any anxiety that we had throughout the process that crept up, Jason quickly quelled and handled expertly. We did away with a lot of the "traditions" at weddings (i.e., no cake cutting, no speeches, etc.) and Jason did such an amazing job helping us to construct an event that felt like OUR wedding and not just another wedding. Thank you thank you thank you!

I am going to do my best to put into words how positive our experience with Jason was. My now husband and I have said countless times that Jason was the absolute best investment we could have made in regards to our successful wedding! Jason, and the entire wedding experience, surpassed our expectations and we are absolutely on cloud nine. Jason is largely to thank for this. Edward (my husband) and I were completely intimidated about tackling such an intricate and emotional event and doing it well. It was the most important day of our lives so far, and the idea of handling everything ourselves was just too much. We asked for recommendations from friends and family, and was given Jason’s information from someone very close to us. We looked into a few options, but once we contacted him, we knew right away that we had a match. What we really appreciated is that there was absolutely no pressure from him to go with him. He told us he wanted our wedding to be perfect and that if we found someone that was a better fit that he would be excited for us. We felt that was very rare. He sat down with us in person, got to know us a bit, and then put together a game plan and quote free of charge. He was very affordable and made us confident that he could work with our budget and do it well. That, mixed with his upbeat and confident energy made us feel like we were in good hands. The thing that Edward and I were the most intimidated by was just how many different things we had to keep in mind, and how to plan everything in terms of timing. Jason took this fear away completely by giving us a detailed list of things we had to do, and when to do them. We were able to let go of the anxiety and just check things off the list. When we had questions, he answered them promptly. He checked in with us regularly, and cheered us on the whole time. The final month before the wedding was a lot of work, and we could not have done it without Jason. In planning, there are bound to be snags, and he handled them gracefully and quickly. The biggest thing that happened (and this was HUGE) was that the restaurant we were working with to cater ended up dropping the ball big time and cancelling on us two days before the wedding! Edward and I were of course completely freaked out, but Jason dealt with it like a superhero. Within hours, he had found another restaurant with a similar menu, negotiated everything, and had us with food that was perfect, and that all our guests loved. We were beyond grateful to have him save us like that! Once everything was together and lined up for the event, it was time for the big day, and I am not exaggerating in that it was PERFECT. He ran rehearsals, showed up early the day of to organize and decorate, he had created beautiful signs and menus for us, and then ran the ceremony/rehearsal seamlessly. He took care of the two of us, and made sure that we weren’t doing too much, which we really appreciated. He dealt with small issues without us even knowing they existed. Amazing. And after it was all said and done, he called us the next day to check in and see how we were feeling about the experience. Jason is a true professional who will handle your special day with care, creativity, and a fun demeanor. He has moved past the status of wedding planner and become a good friend. We loved having him with us for this journey, and know that you will too. More than 5 stars for this guy!!

Very attentive, listened very well, and was patient with my demands and my vision. Worked with us very early and continued to be attentive throughout. Clearly knows what he is doing and brings his own flavor, experience, and collected partnerships. He truly cared both about us and the wedding.

Jason was a dream to work with, despite the fact that my husband and I were basically a planner's worst nightmare. We were torn between a bunch of different ideas and didn't know what to do. Jason is intuitive and patient, and helped us build a vision of exactly what we wanted using pieces from all of our ideas. I could go on about how flawlessly he executes a party, how he handles all of your vendors and fixes all of the potential mishaps before they even arise (or after they arise), but I think what truly sets Jason apart is who he is as a person. He is kind, understanding and gentle, while still being authoritative. The weeks leading to your wedding day (and the day itself) are so overwhelming. Having Jason's knowledge as well as his calming energy around us, frankly, kept us sane while also giving us the most personal and perfect wedding we could've hoped for. We would recommend him over and over again!

Jason was exceptional. He met all our needs and then some!

We started working with Jason Mitchell Kahn just a couple of months before our September 2015 farm wedding in the Lower Hudson Valley, and we’re so glad we brought him on board to help us realize our vision! Our caterer was doubling as an event planner, but due to some changes in staffing a few months before our event, a lot of the details fell by the wayside and we were left to pick up the slack, which turned out to be too much work for us to do on our own. Then Jason came in and very quickly and efficiently put the pieces back together. He spent time listening to us and used his expertise to help us refine our vision for the day including how the ceremony would flow. He worked on programs and other printed materials and gave us some wonderful decorating ideas we hadn’t considered, which took everything to the next level. Then, on the day of the event, he coordinated all aspects to make sure that the flowers were in place, that the caterer was ready go, that the DJ was settled, that the ceremony got started on time, that the guests were able to get to the reception easily, that the family photos were organized, and most of all – that the two of us got to enjoy our special day! We didn’t have to delegate or worry at all about whether something would get done; Jason was able to anticipate our needs and seamlessly took care of everything. Our wedding is something that our friends and family still talk about as one of the best receptions they ever attended, and Jason was a crucial part of making the weekend a real success!

Our wedding as we dreamed it would not have been possible without Jason. From our first meeting, he took the time to understand what we wanted and then proceeded to meticulously create exactly that event. He handled every detail in the research, planning and execution with such care. The venue he found for us was so perfect, it seemed he had simply created it from our description. He has a wealth of resources and talent to wok with that created the perfect wedding: photographer, Florist, musicians, all perfection and so professional! The best part was that during the event, he and his staff handled everything from beginning to end, leaving my husband and me to enjoy or family and friends with absolutely no cares. It was as if we were guests at our own wedding. I can’t speak highly enough. I’d get married again just to relive the experience. But only if we had Jason to lead the way!

Jason was incredible and essential throughout our entire process. We had no idea what we were doing and he guided us through the entire way in a very organized and calm fashion. I never felt overwhelmed or nervous about any aspect of the wedding and we had so much fun along the way all thanks to Jason. We ended up having a 400-person wedding so it was no small feat to pull off and we are forever grateful to him. Simply the BEST

Hiring Jason was one of the best decisions we made in our wedding planning process. I knew he would do a great job, but I had no idea just how crucial his role would be. I cannot emphasize enough the value of having a professional at the helm who knows the timeline like the back of his hand, anticipates problems before they arise, and has the creative instinct to add those special touches that make the day extra special. His experience really showed when dealing with our event space which was beautiful and historic but also accustomed to doing things a certain way. He managed to convince them to use the space differently than usual allowing us to maximize space and maintain an upbeat pace. He was charming but firm and knew all the right requests to make so that the menu and service were perfectly customized to suit us. On the day of our wedding, everything went so smoothly that we even got compliments on the flow of events! Jason was on top of every little detail. Someone's making a toast and forgot their drink? There's Jason with a new glass before they even realize they need it. He was like that the whole day. He kept us right on schedule, made sure my husband and I took time to eat, and dealt quickly and quietly with any issues that arose. Our wedding was a dream come true - elegant, tons of fun, and simply perfect. I cannot imagine having done it without Jason!

Jason was the perfect wedding planner. He really listened. He challenged us in the perfect ways to come up with the wedding we really wanted as a couple. Then he set about making that happen within our budget. He works tirelessly, is a wealth of knowledge and know-how and to top it all off he is friendly and fun to work with. In short, our wedding went off without a hitch and it's all thanks to him! Highest Possible Recommendation.

Jason Mitchell Kahn was my Day Of Coordinator for my wedding and was an integral part in making my dream wedding come to life! Even though I didn't hire him as my wedding planner, he went above & beyond all expectations. He helped put together the menus & program cards, he gave great suggestions & planning tips, communication via email or calls were quick & easy, and he'd check in with me from time to time to make sure I wasn't too overwhelmed & to see if I needed any help. I'd also recommend getting his book "Getting Groomed" which I used quite often as a reference guide. I'm pretty skilled at throwing large scaled parties, but he even thought of things that didn't occur to me which were a tremendous help. He had suggested that after the ceremony my husband and I get away from everyone for some quality alone time to let the event just sink in. Jason was so thoughtful that he came into the room with 2 waiters with champagne, water, and food from the cocktail reception to make sure we had food & drink to enjoy while together. Throughout the day, he helped set up, prep, & organize the entire wedding & venue which was held in 5 different rooms in a 3 story mansion. He handled the photographer, videographer, band, caterer & waitstaff, DJ, photo booth, and guests all with effortless ease which helped give me peace of mind to enjoy my special day stress-free. You only have 1 shot for the perfect evening, so having Jason by your side is hands down the way to go! I HIGHLY recommend him & can't thank him enough for making my dream wedding come true!!!

Jason was a lifesaver - our previous venue had cancelled on us and we were six months to a wedding with literally no plans whatsoever. Jason's work ethic and creative flair were absolutely invaluable and due to his extraordinary efforts we had a beautiful, joyous wedding. We are forever indebted to him and can't recommend him strongly enough.

Alysha Jason was invaluable. I can’t stress the importance of a planner and if you’re going to hire one (and you should) it’s should be Jason Mitchell-Kahn. He was so thorough. He helped organize and arrange things I never would have ever thought of. He was a very calming presence on the wedding day. I always felt like I was in great hands. Plus he had great ideas. He helped make our wedding perfect. Can’t thank him enough. FIVE STARS!!!

Jason was incredible with planning our New York City wedding. We met with Jason early on, and as soon as we sat down, Jason asked us questions to get to know about us as a couple. He asked all the right questions and really made us feel valued as clients and then as friends. We had 200 out of town guests coming to New York and Jason was invaluable in running the show and letting us enjoy our weekend with our friends and family. He made sure that everything was taken care of all the way until our after party which ended at 4am! I had crazy ideas and Jason was always responding with so much positivity and creativity that it felt like I had an amazing partner in the planning process. When I had an idea and didn't know a vendor, he was able to turn around within the hour and give me a huge list of vendors. He helped me with everything from finding a private yoga instructor for the morning of to our rehearsal dinner venue. I highly recommend him and his team if you are looking for someone that pays attention to detail, can run the show with finesse, and comes with a creativite and positive outlook.

I have never been so happy with any experience as I was working with Jason. He not only helped us put together a beautiful wedding on a budget in NYC but he was in complete control the day of, allowing my wife and I to actually celebrate our love. Jason has become a great friend who I would recommend unconditionally for any event you are thinking about having.

I could not recommend Jason more. He was my lifeline during the year leading up to the wedding. He kept me organized and one step ahead of my deadlines. On the day of, he put out all fires so that none of the stress came my way. All I was left with was the wedding of my dreams. Everyone should be lucky enough to have him help plan your wedding!
