PLAN PREP PARTY

get married in California, and we without a doubt could not have done it without her. She is incredibly responsive and her attention to detail is super impressive. We explained our vision to her on day one and she hit the ground running making it a reality (and then some)! She works behind the scenes with other vendors so you don't have to, making it so you can focus on the fun part of planning. And she is a design genius. We couldn't believe how amazing the venue looked on the day of our wedding - she thinks of absolutely everything. And on top of it all, she is SO SO much fun to work with. Her positive energy is contagious. By the wedding day, she felt like another friend/wedding guest (a very, very helpful and organized one). We are so jealous of anyone who is just getting to start the planning process with her now!!!

to the COVID-19 pandemic. Jessica had been great up to that point with helping us plan a wedding from across the country, but where she truly shined was in helping us navigate the uncertainty of postponing our wedding in an unprecedented time with all of our vendors. We ended up postponing not just once but twice, and Jess was so helpful to my husband and I in keeping our sanity and walking us through the best next steps. No one plans to get married in a pandemic, but with Jessica on your side it will make it 100 times easier! When our big day finally came Jess was such a pro and everything went so smoothly! We were able to fully relax and soak in the day knowing Jess had all of the logistics fully taken care of. Seriously cannot recommend Jessica enough, she is the BEST!

to covid & was so nervous, but she put my mind at ease & kept me calm. She also helped us find a new venue when our 1st one bailed on us & to be honest, the venue she selected was absolutely stunning! We couldn’t have had the wedding we did without her. She truly brought everything to life & I can’t thank her enough! We’ll be forever grateful & so glad we got the chance to meet & work with her!

y thoughtful and exactly what we needed. Jessica helped us with every facet of our wedding, spending many more hours on the phone with us than she probably ever imagined. When Covid hit and our April 2020 wedding could no longer be, Jessica stood by us and supported us every step of the way, liaising with our venue and vendors through it all. When we decided to forego our larger wedding and elope in 2021, Jessica once again put in so much time and effort to get us married. Every single detail was perfect and the day turned out far better than what we ever could have imagined. Jessica was truly our light through it all and became so close we asked her to officiate our elopement-- and she did so perfectly. We are forever grateful and have a lifelong friend in Jessica. Thank you again for being an extension of our family and responsible for the most incredible journey of our lives.

lot of wedding vendors to be very "fluffy" and that is not Jessica. She loves what she does and her goal is to get the job done well and to ensure that the couple's expectations are exceeded. Jessica's energy on the day of our wedding was bar none, she literally had a bag of tricks to accommodate any random request/need of the wedding party and guests - it was amazing. She made our vision come to life and then some and I am forever grateful to her for such an incredible job! Thank you so much Jess, for giving us the perfect day that we can talk about for the rest of our lives. BRIDES - HIRE THIS WOMAN!!

best days of our lives and completely exceeded my expectations. That would not have been possible if it wasn't for Jess being there along the way. Not only was she my planner/coordinator, but I truly feel like I gained a new friend and family member. She's responsible, stern, and puts you first; which is ALL you can ask for on your wedding day. I felt in such good hands and I seriously cannot thank her enough for everything. I'm so saddened it's all over, but I need to find any excuse to plan an event so I can hang with Jess again lol! Do yourself some justice and book Plan Prep Party right away, you WON'T be disappointed!!!

anizational/planning skills are out of this world. She works with such grace and style that you don’t realize how much work is going on behind the scenes until you start having last minute panicky anxious thoughts, text her to troubleshoot ideas, and realize she has already anticipated EVERYTHING. She took care of all of the complicated logistics, which meant we got to focus on the fun parts of wedding planning and actually enjoy the event. She connected us with the most incredible vendors. She truly listened to what was important to us as a couple, which made our wedding weekend so special and authentic to us. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

anted. You always had our back when it came to disputes with venders, even though it was very rare given your amazingly kind and friendly personality. Bottom line, you always got the job done, and done right. I can go on and on about how our perfect, albeit unconventional, wedding was almost entirely because of you and all your amazing qualities, including your creativeness to make the house-venue perfect. Anyone lucky enough to have you in their life - whether as a wedding planner or daughter (the devotion to your father is absolutely heartwarming) - is extremely blessed.

iterally everything and was so prepared to help make my vision a reality. She helped make every single part of my day seamless and went above and beyond to make sure that I had the best day of my life. She was so easy to work with, great at communication, great at working with my vendors, recommended vendors to work with, thought of things I completely forgot about, and she was amazing with my family and wedding guests. Jessica made sure every little detail was perfect and put my mind at ease completely. On top of all that, Jessica is so friendly and sweet - I honestly felt like I had an extra friend around to help. I often say that the wedding coordinator fee was the best money I spent on our wedding! Cannot recommend Plan Prep Party enough.

ring all of the added elements compared to normal wedding planning. Despite the world's current situation, I truly had the wedding of my dreams! The day of the wedding I had zero stress, and Jessica had everything covered. She also recommended awesome vendors that brought our vision to life!

she was so down to earth and I really felt like I could trust her with the planning process. I unfortunately was one of the covid brides and had to switch our venue twice before eventually moving our wedding back from San Diego to Nebraska. She stayed with my every step of the way and even came OUT TO Nebraska to finish our wedding. Her ideas and budget saving tips were fantastic and she is a genius with a dessert bar. I could truly go on and on but I am SO thankful that she was with me every step of the way through the wedding process. Weddings can be stressful and this year was truly something else. I think her constant positivity and understanding was more than I could have asked for. Thank you, thank you for making our night better than we could have possibly imagined <3

n the process. (Didn't even know some steps existed) We can not thank her and her team enough. Expectations were exceeded!

n the bay area while planning my wedding in San Diego, and having her as our wedding planner really helped offset a lot of the stress that came with that. We are so thankful for her and the way she helped plan/coordinate day-of! She did amazing taking care of us day-of and even providing things last minute that we had forgotten (such as buying a garter, can't believe I had forgotten that haha). Thank you for making our wedding day so special and being such a big part of it!

appreciated. She helped turn our vision into reality and make it even better than we imagined! She took on the decorating the morning of at our venue, which is basically a blank canvas. She made sure that my husband and I had a few minutes to ourselves in our venue before guests could enter, which we really appreciated! At the rehearsal, she was organized and really did a great job. There were only a couple of times that I had to ask Jessica about the status of something, otherwise I would absolutely hire Jessica again!

an living on the other side of the country, and I can't even begin to explain how crucial Jessica was to my positive wedding planning experience. Not only did she help me by identifying key deadlines, but she did so much behind-the-scenes communication with our other vendors. Besides being amazingly capable, Jessica is just the type of person you want running your special day. We laughed together, shared frustrations, and she just really, truly cared about me and my now-husband. If you need a wedding planner/coordinator, you truly cannot go wrong with Jessica.

uggestions. As generally a planner myself, she was always 1 step ahead of me. I didn’t have to worry about anything on the wedding day, she took care of everything. Throughout the planning process, I maybe had some parent-zilla issues but she wasn’t phased at all. On the day of the wedding, she even took all the stuff I brought for the wedding and put it in her car the night before so I didn’t have to. We’re so grateful we had her as a “partial” planner throughout the process although her work was much more than partial lol. Thank you Jessica for giving us the most beautiful wedding we could have ever thought of!

BEST day of my life and did not have to worry about the little details. I was able to enjoy and see everything for the first time at the same time as my guests.  Jessica is personable, knowledgeable, and the hardest working wedding planner I have ever met. I was horrible at organizing and made changes til the very end. She was patient, understanding and helped me make decisions when I was wishy washy.  I blindly booked my venue and it really turned out to be a quite a monster as it was completely DIY.  I'm sure it was not what she expected when she signed on, but she had a positive attitude and made miraculous things happen.  Tons of my guests have told me this was one of the best weddings they've been to. I did not have a huge budget, but I think we really did throw an amazing party and I mostly have Jessica to thank for help with styling and budget restraints.  I am FOREVER grateful and if you are looking for a planner...HIRE JESSICA!!

me I spoke to Jessica she eased my fears immediately. She never rattled, she kept me calm, and I could always trust her to take care of whatever I was worrying about. Best of all, she was so positive and upbeat. It really helped me to enjoy the wedding- and even the planning! I was always very happy and excited after a planning sesh with Jessica. Furthermore, her professionalism was top notch. Always kind, always courteous and super capable and obviously experienced. She knew exactly how to handle every situation on the big day. I was completely at ease with her at the helm. And everyone in the wedding party loved her too! Thank you for everything Jess, it was truly amazing and we couldn’t have imagined such a great wedding without you!!

!). I would recommend Plan Prep Party to everyone I know!

tions I had about vendors, pricing, contracts, rentals, etc. and she took the initiative to always make my life as easy as possible. From moving around her schedule to make last minute meetings with our chef and rental company to several trips to LA for venue walkthroughs, she was honestly the best and most important decision I made for my entire wedding. Jess is super organized, relatable and willing to listen to your dreams and offer ways to bring it to life. She was always great about sticking with my budget and not pushing me to extend myself in places I wasn't comfortable. Our wedding was unique in that our venue was an event space with nothing included so we brought in all vendors/items. With a million moving parts and my scattered brain of thoughts and ideas, Jess made sure absolutely nothing slipped through the cracks and made my vision a reality on my wedding day. She kept us on schedule, all my vendors in line and always made sure my husband and I had a drink in our hands and were enjoying ourselves. The actual day of the wedding, I found out the Fire Marshall showed up to do an inspection of all my candles in the space to ensure they were to code..... this could have been an absolute nightmare... THANK GOD for Jess! She handled it flawlessly and meanwhile, I didn't have any clue any of this went down until after he left and we got the stamp of approval for our set up. Immediately following the wedding, the venue required a full load out of every single item we brought in that night - Jess literally handled this with a smile on her face and went above and beyond to make sure my family and I didn't have to worry about a thing. My husband and I were so thankful for Jessica through the entire process and I literally can't say enough about how wonderful she was to both myself and my family. I can't recommend her enough. She will work her ass off to ensure your day is absolutely perfect and she will do it with a smile. I consider Jess a friend, not just my wedding planner, and someone that I am SO proud of to see be successful. I am a huge fan of hers and can't wait to see all the amazing weddings she's able to put together throughout her career.

er immediately. The wedding day was perfect. Everything was professionally coordinated. We will be forever grateful.

edding for 215 people in San Diego within 4 months, while living in Los Angeles, starting a new job and planning a couple of cultural wedding events in LA. Needless to say, we had a lot going on and Jessica really acted like our partner along the journey. In our search for planners, we interviewed over 10 companies and Jessica / Plan Prep Party was the obvious and easy choice. From our first conversation, we hit it off and she really understood the vibe we were aiming for with our wedding weekend. Many of the planners we interviewed wanted to focus on their packages, costs, offerings, etc. But not Jessica. Jessica wanted to know about our vision, our love story, what this wedding meant to us. Shortly after our first phone call (and weeks before hiring her) she started Pinterest boards for our wedding weekend. This really sold me on Jessica – her willingness and desire to bring our wedding to life even before we signed a contract. She was just as enthusiastic and excited about our wedding as we were and really wanted to bring our ideas to life. Jessica was always working behind the scenes without us ever having to ask her. She had meetings scheduled before I could ask about the status. Our venue’s Catering Manager was let go about a month before our wedding and Jessica stepped in like the boss she is and made sure the Catering Director was brought up to speed on all the special requests and nuances of our wedding. She never missed a beat. She was always pleasant and excited during all of our interactions. She heard everything we said and really worked as our ally with our vendors. She also has a great arsenal of vendors that she has great relationships with – we loved and hired her florist (AHR Florals), photography (Jami Laree) and videographer (Shutter & Sound) recommendations. During our actual wedding weekend, we barely saw her because she was busy creating wedding magic – literal magic. Everything was what we had hoped for and more, and everyone thought the entire weekend was intimate, love-filled and fun – the three main adjectives we used to describe our wedding vibe. Thank you, Jessica! We love you so much for helping us have the wedding of our dreams and more.

g the one we first picked. She came to all our tastings with us and offered candid opinions on everything. She handled my continuous texts every day for the past few months. She was always in tune to the vision we had for our wedding and carefully led us to through the details to accomplish it. And she did it all with a smile!!! I honestly can't tell you enough good things about her! Both sets of parents and the bridal party all commented on how helpful she was, how easy she made the day for everyone, and how incredibly hardworking she is. I couldn't agree more!
