Jennifer, Jennifer, Jennifer! JC Events was my lifesaver and JC Events was in the longest 2-year wedding planning commitment ever with me! I interviewed other planners, yet talking to Jenn was just easier, like talking to a friend. I booked he...r over a telephone call because her reviews were top in San Antonio, and she seemed so genuine and made me feel like I was her only priority. For a solid 2 years she has been right by my side, a text away, and always available for me as we navigated through the rough waters of 2020. She was more than a coordinator in 2020, she was my friend and confidante and the one person I would tell when I was frustrated as we slowly watched all my wedding dreams get canceled in 2020. Jenn helped me pick up the pieces and plan for a grand event in 2021 with expert communication with all vendors and making sure my winter wedding vision came to life!
Though a full wedding coordinator package may seem like a luxury expense, looking through all my vendor costs, she was my top investment and what I would recommend 100% to all brides. I did not want any family or friends being put to work that day and I knew I needed a professional to make the day go smoothly and look as effortless as possible. I didn’t know how badly I needed her until I realized I couldn’t do without her! All the planning took months of communication over little details that had to be just right. Jenn has a soothing personality that kept me calm and collected on my wedding day (which says a lot for a party planner like me that has difficulty letting go of control). For example, on my wedding day I had an issue with the way the gazebo for our ceremony was draped (it was not as I discussed with the vendor) and I told Jenn it was a small detail but “it’s okay” and “it’s too close to start time anyway.” Jenn however, sprinkled her magic and had the ENTIRE 18 HUGE PANELS of chiffon re-draped for me in 20 minutes! This is a massive gazebo that needed to be transformed within an hour until ceremony time and she made it happen because it was important to me.
That’s when I realized Jenn is a bubbly, sweet, caring personality who also carries an assertiveness not to be trifled with when it’s your big day! Throughout the day, she was one step ahead of me, and Jenn and Ashley rushed to assist when needed. They make you feel special.
Back in January 2020, when I first booked Jenn, I remember saying something like “it’s a wedding, not rocket science.” Boy, I eat those words now and wish I never said them! Coordinating is an art, it is a flow, and it is hours and hours of emailing, calling, texting, planning, checking in, and Jenn intensely listened to exactly what shade of blue I wanted and waited patiently as I changed line-ups and added more and more last-minute vendors (including performing artists) to the schedule. She cared so much even when it was something so small, even when as a wife and mother I’m sure she had far bigger concerns. Whether it was a call to check-in or an encouraging text as I cried when we canceled our 2020 wedding, she was always there for me. At the end of the day, she is the top wedding coordinator in San Antonio, and more than that, she is a good friend. The only hard part of being done with a grand event is that I won’t get as many positive, uplifting, texts with ALL the sparkle emojis! Jenn is a person who specializes in YOU, your vision, and assisting you in bringing your dreams to fruition. 10/10, would recommend.
