Jessica Hennessey Weddings

and helped suggest vendors whose aesthetics would match our vision. Leading up to our big day, she provided input on any changes or concerns we expressed, organized all our vendors, and put together a clear and concise plan that everyone could follow. Day-of, she brought our vision to life and made sure our special day went off without a hitch! I truly did not have to worry about one thing on my wedding day, which was amazing! Originally, we were actually suppose to get married in 2021, but COVID-19 derailed our plans slightly. When we decided to postpone, Jessica could not have been more helpful. Despite us not being a full time client, Jessica dedicated additional time and effort into helping us with our postponement. We are so appreciative of her help and expertise during that time! Overall, Jessica and her team did such an amazing job. They truly went above and beyond, and we could not be more grateful.

overwhelming to say the least. Even though Jess was also navigating the COVID wedding madness (while also being an incredible mom and wife nonetheless) Jess was always my calming force, voice of reason, organizer extraordinaire, sounding board and everything in between. She is superwoman! Not to mention, she literally handed us the most incredible vendors on a silver platter. It was so special seeing all of their work come to life day of and we were BLOWN away. Thanks to Jess and her team, my husband and I were able to be fully present throughout our entire wedding weekend. We were solely focused on each other, our friends and family, and able to enjoy every single second of our wedding because we knew that Jess and her team had everything under control. I honestly don't even know if there were any mishaps because Jess made sure the entire day ran seamlessly and it was the best day of our lives. Jess is so much more than "a wedding planner”. She embodies everything you want and need while planning a wedding. Oh right, she’s also a two-time Emmy award-winning producer…I mean, seriously!! RUN, don’t walk and hire Jess for the most important day of your life. You will not regret it. We love you Jess and are eternally grateful to you and your team!!!

able, providing advice and guidance to help us think through everything that should be considered at a venue that didn't offer anything except the space. When rain entered the forecast, she was reassuring and provided a gameplan for the day. And when the flower delivery went wrong, she helped us put together a plan so our guests would not even know that things had gone wrong. She has a breadth and depth of knowledge of not only how to put on a wedding, but what needs to be done to make a wedding run smoothly. And she knows the people and places you might need to know when it comes to emergencies (like our flower delivery!) .We cannot recommend her enough, and are so thankful she was there with us from start to finish.

ly enjoy my wedding with no stress. I was able to take in every single moment of my day because of Jessica and I can not thank her enough.

remely knowledgeable. We had a tented wedding at my husband's family home on Cape Cod, and Jessica helped us navigate basically building an entire venue from scratch, which is no small feat. There were so many details and logistics to think about and handle behind the scenes and Jessica did it all flawlessly. Especially in the few weeks leading up the wedding, she spent so much time coordinating with each vendor and getting everyone on the same page and timeline and it was the best feeling knowing that she had everything under control. She thought of everything and kept us on track. You can tell that she and her team have done this many times before and that they truly know what they are doing. Our wedding exceeded our expectations in so many ways and we have Jessica and the amazing (and I do mean AMAZING) vendors she found for us to thank for that. I could go on and on and on about how much I recommend Jessica's expertise but instead I will just say having Jessica in our corner during wedding planning and on our wedding day was the most important thing we did, and if you hire her, I promise you will not be disappointed!!

elf. I'm telling you, nothing gets by this girl! Hiring her and her team was one of the smartest decisions I made as a bride. Do yourself a favor and hire her. :)

or no additional cost- just out of sheer professionalism/ the kindness of her heart. I lost my dad just as the pandemic was revving up and re-planning a wedding was not something I felt up for even a little bit. Jessica made it so I barely lifted a finger. She was always pleasant and available if we had questions slightly outside the scope of our contract (though we tried not abuse this!). In the month leading up to the wedding, Jessica caught so many last minute details we had missed. I really don't think we would have been able to pull it off without her. In retrospect, my husband and I agreed that we wished he had hired her for the event planning package. We were on a budget, but actually feel like she would have saved us wasted dollars with her expertise. All of our vendors had only nice things to say about JHW. If you are looking for a wedding planner, look no further.

on't know where we'd be. From day one, until our wedding day, she was nothing but professional, informative, patient and most importantly - so incredibly organized! She always listened to us and gave such thoughtful advice. Always respected our input while providing such beautiful and creative ideas. Her attention to detail is impeccable - she never missed a beat on anything. Jess connected us with the most talented team of vendors and we could not imagine our day without them. Just magical! During our year of planning, I always felt that we were in such good hands. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't feeling stressed out when we had to postpone - but Jess always, always, always made it very clear that being married is the goal here and it would be the BEST. DAY. EVER. No matter what. She was not lying - it was the best day ever and we owe it all to her and her team! Simply put, Jess is a ROCKSTAR.

rivate residence, and it quickly became evident I'd need some extra help. At this point, it was already mid-July and our wedding was in October, so I began contacting planners/coordinators in the Cape Cod area. Jessica got back to me promptly and we set up some time to chat to see if her services were a good fit for us. They were! In those three months leading up to the wedding, Jessica provided helpful tools to make the wedding planning process easier, made key suggestions that we never would have thought of on our own, and most importantly, helped us navigate the ever-changing COVID-19 regulations landscape. She's a great communicator and was always willing to hop on the phone to talk something through. Jessica really shined in the couple of weeks leading up to our wedding and the day of. She coordinated with all of our vendors and created a wedding-day packet including a comprehensive timeline of the day and important contact information. That packet was like my bible :) On the day of the wedding, Jessica made sure everything went smoothly. If anything went wrong, I didn't know about it! She took all of our decor and worked with our florist to make our vision come to life. I was absolutely blown away when I saw everything set up. The day went exactly according to plan, and my husband and I keep saying we never, ever could have pulled it off without Jessica. Not only was Jessica extremely organized and communicative, but she was also there for us emotionally. Planning a wedding during COVID-19 was extremely stressful, and Jessica provided some much-needed positivity and relieved us of so much stress. I know we'll stay in touch with Jessica as she played just as much of a role in our wedding as some of our closest family and friends. If you are looking for a planner/coordinator/designer and hype girl all in one, hire Jessica!

eps ahead of the game (especially for my type A wife). Her team is extremely friend and hustled for us the entire wedding day. They were great to our bridal party and family, always making sure we had everything we needed. This kind of attention does not go unnoticed. We recommend Jessica to all of our engaged friends!

ything effortlessly. She is very knowledgeable about price points and with recommending fantastic vendors. Jessica also provided a beautiful and unique dessert wall to display a variety of desserts - we had whoopie pies and baklava! She also officiated at the wedding. Jessica was sincere, heartfelt and she added a warm touch of humor - the ceremony was perfect. Jessica is professional and very personable as are her most attentive assistants. We cannot thank Jess and her team enough for making this event truly special.

a detailed schedule for my fiancé and I. She is very easy to work with and kept the line of communication open throughout the whole process. We wanted a dessert wall and her husband was able to build us an incredible wall that she decorated and supervised the building of. From the venue, to the rehearsal dinner, to all the small details, she was an amazing part of that whole process of making sure everything ran smoothly. She even came down and had us looking good before the ceremony by pinning all of the groomsmen's boutonnieres. The relationship she has with her vendors is very apparent because they all knew what they had to do, when to be there, and respected her opinion. Living in North Carolina and having a wedding 1000 miles away, Jessica facilitated every single phone call we had to be on, our viewings, our tastings, our surveys that had to be filled out...everything. She went above and beyond and contacted people down in NC for my fiancé's dress and tailoring. My fiancé and I frequently joked with Jessica about being our officiate since she was able to get to know us so well over the last year. She shared that she actually always wanted to become an officiate and we were lucky enough to have her marry us. You never, ever would have known we were the first couple she married. On the day of the wedding, we didn't feel rushed, or stressed, we were just able to show up and enjoy our time. The wedding was perfect and exactly what we had envisioned and more. I wish we could go back in time and do it all over again with Jessica's help! If you need a point person or someone to plan your wedding, I would highly recommend Jessica, she is amazing.

without her. She literally does it ALL. Jessica and I immediately connected due to her incredible and easy to work with personality. She is organized, exceptionally talented, professional and fun to work with. Her attention to detail is beyond incredible! She understood exactly what I wanted and created an entire wedding weekend more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. As a remarkable professional in the field, she knows the industry and therefore her vendor suggestions were AMAZING. She knew who would be the best fit for my fiancé and I and she was right about all of them. She was extremely responsive to all emails, texts, and phone calls.. She had wonderful ideas and suggestions that we never would have thought of! She put me at ease in every single decision making moment. The schedule she created for the vendors, and myself for the wedding weekend was a work of art in itself. Everyone asks “are you nervous?” as your wedding date approaches, and I genuinely continued to feel and respond “absolutely not, I’m excited,” because Jessica had EVERYTHING under and beyond control. If anything were to go “wrong” I knew I wouldn’t even know about it because Jess would have it handled in less than a blink of an eye. It was the greatest feeling to know someone was handling the schedule, where people had to be and when, what time vendors were showing up, etc- the only thing I had to think about was enjoying my morning with my friends and family and walking down the aisle. Again, because of Jessica’s extreme talent, passion, creativity, genius ideas and relationships, she truly made our wedding weekend (and the entire planning process) the absolute BEST for us and our family, bridal party, and guests. Our hearts are forever filled with much love and gratitude for Jessica (and her team)! There is no doubt she is the absolute BEST in the business. Thank you and 5 stars does not do our feelings justice but really, we cannot thank Jess enough! Weddings are something you want to remember and relive over and over, and Jessica successfully gave us an incredible and “dream come true” experience we will forever cherish!!!!! The weekend could not have run more smoothly or perfect, and I heard this repeatedly from the bridal party, vendors, and guests. I CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH JESS!!! Best decision ever made.

plans, Jessica was able to calmly guide our decision making and make sure that before, during, and after the event, everything went flawlessly.

and expertise in her industry. She brings up things that would never even have crossed my mind, which is especially important when having a tented "non venue" wedding. She is extremely thorough and checks all the boxes and then some. We chose the day-of coordination package that includes unlimited communication. This was probably the biggest perk of hiring Jessica. I think I emailed her at least once a week for the first year of our engagement and then maybe 5-10x a week during the last 6 months haha. She ALWAYS replied to me almost instantly, always offering solutions and pointing me in the direction I needed. I am pretty sure this is not something that is included in most day-of coordinator's services! The Monday before our wedding we found out that we were expecting a hurricane on Saturday (wedding day). Jessica was in constant communication with me all week replying to text messages from early am until late in the evening. She offered to call around to find me a generator when we thought we might have to rent one! She had me order clear umbrellas for the bridal party and some table weights in case the wind blew over (something I would never have known!). Jessica communicated clearly with all of my vendors and provided them a very thorough packet with timelines and details, phone numbers etc! When the day came Jessica and her team (Krysti and Martha) were on site from the early morning. Jessica stopped by our bridal suite multiple times to style a flat lay for our photographer and pick up any odds and ends I needed to give her last minute. I cannot speak highly enough about her team members that day. Both were so calming and sweet!!! Martha and Krysti made me feel so good on our wedding day - they checked in asking if we needed anything so many times during the night, they packed my mother's car with all our items and help on to keys and important items. They ran around and put tent sides up when the hurricane cleared and the sun came out! I could go on and on about Jessica and her team but I would suggest scheduling a call with Jessica to discuss your needs! If you are looking for someone with attention to detail and a calming personality- Jess is your girl!!

our the day of and she was there on time and had everything taken care of with out any questions asked. She is very affordable and a great person to work with. Highly recommend!!

and so that I could enjoy the day as much as possible! Jessica’s day-of coordination package includes not only onsite support for the day, but resources and support leading up to it. Her checklists were invaluable for helping me organize all of the various decor items for the different ceremony, cocktail and reception areas and what I needed done that day. She also met with me a couple of weeks before to get organized and to work on our timeline, and was available to answer questions any time I had them before the wedding. The day-of support from her team (Susan and Krysti) was A.MAZ.ING. They kept everything on schedule, for my husband and I everything we needed before we even thought of it and made sure everything went perfectly. If anything wasn’t going as planned, I never knew (and appreciate that!). Jessica and her team are worth every penny plus some. A must-have for your wedding!

nest and provides top notch wedding planning. I could not imagine my wedding day without Jessica and Jen making it seamless for everyone. If you are considering Jessica to help with any part of your wedding, do it! Thank you for all your help and hard work ladies!

wedding venue. We had to bring in and choose every vendor and piece of the wedding ourselves. I fully expected that things would go wrong the day of because of all the moving pieces, but NOTHING went wrong, not a single thing, thanks to Jessica and her careful planning. We live across the country from where we got married and Jessica was super helpful in suggesting vendors when I was completely stuck on who to go with. We needed her recommendation for a DJ and for a caterer. We went with her recommendations and were so happy with them. Before our wedding Jessica asked us what we were most worried about, for me it was timing for pictures, first look, etc. When I wasn’t ready and we were behind for the first look, Jessica immediately knew what to do and managed the situation so well, she simultaneously coordinated the change of the first look time while helping me fix my wardrobe malfunction (if she weren’t there me and my bridesmaids would have struggled to fix it). This could have been a stressful situation, but it was not at all because Jessica managed it so well. During the wedding she also made sure we had drinks, food, etc. She also set up most of our decor, we put our trust in her and she did not disappoint, it was all so beautiful; we got so many compliments from guests. Long story short, it helps to hire a professional, and Jessica is not only a professional but a personable, multitasking wedding genius, and a great addition to our wedding.

ed and very Pleasant! I would give her 10 stars!!!

.

ever seemed to let anything fluster her. I love how she connected me with so many awesome vendors and gave real, down-to-earth advice whenever I needed it. It eased all of my nerves to have Jessica the day of the wedding. I DEFINITELY recommend her as a wedding planner!

ou so much ladies! It was great working with you!
