StR Events

d most memorable day, she did it all. We truly were able to sit back relax and enjoy every minute.

r the day of my wedding, and executed on my vision PERFECTLY. She is kind, knowledgeable, professional, and makes you feel like you are special to her! She had flawless execution and just took control - which I loved. CANNOT RECOMMEND HER ENOUGH!!!

our venue look amazing! Her attention to detail, friendly personality, and flawless style were exactly what we needed to bring everything together seamlessly. Thank you StR Events, Jennifer, and Darcy! As a retired wedding photographer and 10 years in the industry, I've worked with a LOT of planners. StR Events is hands down the best in the business!

hat to expect to ease our worries. The day of, Jennifer was an absolute BOSS! I’m used to others relying on me to get things done but she made sure I was hands off so I could enjoy my day. I never doubted her or her teams ability to execute my vision. Even my husband was raving about her to his friends!! I would HIGHLY recommend Jennifer and her team! It was such a pleasure working with her.

ng that they have planned. Every aspect of the day goes so perfectly. We are always on time with a flawless day. Jennifer is also an incredible designer as well. She has so much knowledge of how to find special pieces to make your wedding so special. I highly recommend using StR events for your wedding or event.

ay of the wedding, and I will be forever grateful to her for putting up with my anxious emails and texts the last few weeks before the wedding.

was so on top of everything all the way through, that I never had to worry that something would fall through the cracks. The day of the wedding she had everything in control, my husband and I could just enjoy and have fun! I would recommend Jennifer over and over again! We were so happy with her services!

dding happened and I am still so grateful that I made the decision to hire her. I tell everyone I know that she literally saved my day. I was originally trying to decide between Jennifer and the folks at Columbus Bride and Groom, and from my first meeting with Jennifer, I knew she was the person to hire. Her confidence and professionalism within our first meeting made me feel so calm and confident that she would execute our wedding day flawlessly. She worked with me on budget and what I already had planned (including my ridiculous excel spreadsheet that I already started building even though she gives you a whole site and platform to build such things). The day of, I received a call that all of my flowers were dead due to a cooler malfunction. I called Jennifer hours before she was supposed to begin working toward my day and she immediately got to work on contacting the flower vendor as well as vendors she has relationships with to resolve the problem. She stayed in close contact with me throughout the day and when my venue wanted to move my outdoor wedding inside due to potential rain, she advocated for me and kept the wedding outside. From the moment I stepped outside for our first look until the moment I walked inside after our ceremony, it did not rain!! Jennifer (with the support of Lyndsay), executed our vision flawlessly. The flowers arrived before we arrived on site and everything was where it needed to be. She got me a plate of appetizers while I was getting bustled so I could eat. She got me drinks when I was trying to say hi to everyone! She kept all of my important belongings safe and delivered right to my hotel room when she was wrapping up. It was a perfect day, and our best decision was having Jennifer help us with our day. I cannot stress enough that the day would have not gone as well had she not been a part of it. My husband and I were and still are truly grateful and cannot recommend Jennifer and StR Events enough. Absolute best and most worthwhile decision of the entire planning process. Thank you StR for everything.

met with Kiley and Hartwell several times to discus their vision of their wedding. Jennifer is very knowledgeable and committed to her services. She has great recommendations and is always available for a text message or phone call. With Kiley and Hartwell's ideas and thoughts and with Jennifer’s guidance the wedding was beautiful! She helped with the invitations , RSVP’s, florists, band, dining room layout, organized a detailed time of events, confirmed all vendors and made sure everything was perfect! She was present for rehearsal at the church and instructed the wedding party as their part in the mass. At the reception she handled all tasks and duties. She was excellent! The wedding was magical! The church was beautiful, the outdoor cocktail hour was amazing and the reception was awesome! And the sparklers at the end of the evening were spectacular! We were able to share this gorgeous day with our family and friends! All the credit goes to Jennifer! We are truly grateful and we thank you so much for your dedication and commitment. We would highly recommend Jennifer!

is so friendly, down to earth and organized. She was also super responsive and stayed on top of me when I was procrastinating. When the big day finally came, it was SO helpful to have the StR team there. They dealt with all of the vendors and made sure that everything was running smoothly which allowed us to relax and enjoy the day with our family and friends. On top of that, I was completely blown away with how everything came together. Jennifer gave my husband and I a sneak peek of the ballroom before the guests went in (which was so sweet! and one of my favorite parts of the night), it was so beautiful, I was literally brought to tears! It was absolutely perfect and no detail was overlooked. We definitely could not have pulled this off without Jennifer's help! Whatever you do, hire StR Events, you won't regret it!

ng process. I repeatedly tell EVERYONE I know who is getting married that SHE was the best money I ever spent. She took my pinterest board inspo photos and helped me verbalize my dream to vendors to make sure my vision was known. She communicated our timeline to make my wedding day run flawlessly. She helped me save money along the way negotiating with vendors on my behalf to make sure every detail I wanted fit in my budget. She took over all the tedious tasks the months before the wedding so that my only role was to make sure I enjoyed myself, and I did! Not only would I highly recommend Michelle, but my mom, my husband and everyone who got to attend my magical wedding made sure to let me know that they would recommend her, as well! She is just the best at what she does and you would be missing out not to hire her and StR Events for your big day!

is parents are from Bangalore, India), so we had minimal knowledge of even our own traditions going into the planning process. Jennifer (STR Events) was one of two wedding planners in the state of Ohio who noted having experience with Jewish and South Indian weddings, and we were hooked on working with her from our first consultation call. She has the perfect demeanor for this work, with a fierce work ethic balanced by a soft touch, sense of humor, and genuine care for her clients needs/desires. She was honest with us when our ideas would be complicated or outside of our budget, and extremely helpful with providing affordable solutions ranging from vendor recommendations to purchasing cute items for our "Kids Korner" table that she spotted while out at a Dollar Store and texting us. The original package we purchased with her was primarily for taking over 3 months from the wedding and doing day of support, but about 4 months ahead of the wedding we were behind on our planning and when I reached out to Jennifer to see if she could offer further support, and she immediately responded and got to work right away. She found a Chuppah/Mandap ceremony structure (complete with setup, decoration, and all included in the price) for well under our budget, a florist that nailed exactly what we wanted (from table arrangements to garlands), and designed that layouts and stage covering for all of our events (among many other things she helped with). Jennifer also came to all of our Planning Meetings in Mt. Vernon (about an hour away from her offices in Columbus) and never made us feel rushed even when the meetings ran long or another vendor was late. All of our vendors loved working with her, and she was a hit with both of our families, too. She always asked what our vision was for every element of the wedding, and when we had no clue she offered helpful options and suggestions. The day of the wedding she was managing essentially a small army of staff (her two assistants, 6 staff at our venue [a public park], 5 lunchtime caterers, 4 dinner caterers, 5 bartenders, 3 hairstylists, 3 makeup artists, 3 photographers, 2 DJs, 2 Officiants, linen/ceremony structure/table/stage covering rental and setup, dessert delivery, 2 Dhol players, and more), which she handled with ease and grace. We had a swelteringly hot and humid day in July for an outdoor wedding, and Jennifer was prepared with ice cold gatorade and more ready to go for us and our wedding party. At the end of the night it was like magic how everything we brought into the venue wound up back in secure storage at the venue in order for us to pick up the next morning, and Jennifer checked with us about any/everything leftover we had or last minute decisions to make. She also handed all vendor coordination, payments, tip, and so on, which allowed us to truly be present and focus on our big day and the people we love. Lastly, I will forever be indebted to her for--when we were at our most exhausted in the heat and humidity, and people had already begun to disperse--she pushed us to still do a series of family and friends photos after our second ceremony, reasoning that we would regret not doing it later. THANK YOU to Jennifer and STR Events for an unforgettable day!

o discuss our ideas and limitations, and delivered flawlessly on helpings create our dream wedding. She was incredibly professional, communicated thoroughly with us every step of the way, was creative in working within our budget, and provided phenomenal recommendations for a florist, DJ, and photographer. Her participation in the "day of" details alleviated any of our responsibility, and allowed us to enjoy every moment of the day without worries. We had a great experience and would absolutely recommend her to family and friends in the future.

hands down the best decision we made throughout the entire planning process - aside from going with the ACC - which ultimately led us to StR. At the time we got engaged, my now husband and I were taking on big jobs in NYC and trying to plan from afar. After much debate, I wrote to Michelle and the team at StR to see if it would be a good fit. From the moment I first spoke with Michelle T. , I knew she was the perfect match for me. From her sweet giggle to her attention to detail and elegant style, I knew she would care just as much about our wedding day as we did. You can't put a price on peace of mind, and that's what StR and Michelle was for us. Michelle was incredibly skilled and professional from start to finish. Whether it was vision boarding to execution, she was flawless in her communication style and organization. She kept all of the details in order, was creative in her recommendations, and went so far as to negotiate for us. What's more - she helped us fight some last minute battles in the week leading up to our big day while we were traveling to Columbus, and served as a source of comfort and consolation when a few mishaps took place in the background. Rather than dwell on the "issues" - she was strong, confident and resourceful. She brought us solutions rather than adding to our problems. For that I will always be eternally grateful. She was my rock and co-pilot as April approached. From affordability to flawless execution - StR is where it's at. On our wedding day, Michelle was truly a central figure with our families and bridal party. You cannot help but adore her. StR will forever be one of our most treasured partners in what was hands down the best day of our lives. For that, we are eternally grateful. Thank you StR and thank you Michelle T!

ointed. After our initial meeting, I knew she was my girl. She understood everything that I wanted and was able to get started right away. She went above and beyond to make the planning process as easy as possible. She developed a step-by-step checklist and guided me through the way. She was very easy to contact when I needed something and always put me at ease. Jennifer was able to recommend the best vendors and took care of all the communications and coordination with them. Once the BIG day finally came, I was blown away with how beautiful and perfect everything was. Every little detail was just as I imagine or better. She was able to take my vision, make it better, and it put it all together. I didn’t have a care in the world on my wedding day. I knew I was in great hands. I don’t know if she will ever know how thankful I am to have had her through this process. I would recommend Jennifer and StR Events to any bride.

of the process from coordinating vendors to logistics and timing of the day-of events. She is extremely organized and no detail was overlooked. Thanks to Jennifer I was able to completely relax the day of the wedding and be present in the moment. I couldn't imagine the day without Jennifer & Michelle and couldn't be happier. So Amazing - 100,000 stars thank you so much!!

n a timeline, and Jennifer handled it in the most professional way. Our day would never have gone as smoothly as it did without her!

ugh she is based in Columbus, she was able to meet us down in Hocking Hills twice before the actual wedding for planning and then the rehearsal. When the actual day came, while my husband and I were getting ready, she and her assistant organized everything from incoming vendors to decorations to the wedding parties themselves. Can't recommend her enough.

as. I would pick StR Events again and would strongly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding. I was actually able to enjoy and let go of all of the planning stress! Endless thanks to Michelle!

up with a wedding vision, which was incredibly helpful and made the ceremony and reception so beautiful. Whenever we had questions, we received very quick responses. The weekend of our wedding, I did not worry at all about the logistics of the day. Jennifer and her team were a pleasure to be with on the wedding day and were so helpful. Jennifer even helped ensure we were well fed and had water/drinks when we wanted them, since we were frequently talking with our guests. I 1000% recommend StR Events!! Thank you for everything <3

help. Jennifer started working with us about 8 months before our wedding. She took our crazy ideas and our many planning documents and turned them into easy to follow spreadsheets and realistic timelines. We were sold at our first meeting, and we knew that she understood our vision and respected our decisions. Jennifer acted as a true professional along the way- giving expert opinions, offering support and guidance throughout the whole process. Every detail was thought out, and she didn't waste our time with unnecessary emails. Jennifer was very efficient, and she always followed up in a timely manner. We knew we were in good hands with Jennifer and that she would deliver excellent results! In the weeks leading up to our wedding, Jennifer followed up with all of our vendors, and she kept us updated on any changes or notes that we needed to be aware of. She made herself available to us, and we appreciated the fact that her assistance made it possible for us to enjoy this special time with our family and friends. One of the reasons we wanted to work with Something to Remember is that we wanted our wedding to reflect 'us' but we also wanted everything to run smoothly, and for us not to have to worry about every single detail on our wedding day. Jennifer made this possible for us! I highly recommend Something to Remember and Jennifer Drew for your wedding or other large scale event!

weddings. We were nervous about finding the right fit. We were planning a wedding from 2 different states on the east coast (my husband and I were doing distance), and my parents live in Dayton. So we were looking for someone who could accommodate to FaceTime meetings and many emails. I couldn’t imagine an easier person to work with. She’s very accommodating to any schedule. She worked with us for just over a year on the full-service plan and she made our lives (and our families lives) so much easier as we planned our 300+ Indian & Western fusion wedding. She also navigated the cultural differences between my and my husband’s families with ease. She was honest about what was and wasn’t possible, what she and her team were capable of, and worked to find solutions to any problem we encountered. My parents were late adopters to having a wedding planner, but in the end they were so thankful Jennifer was with us the whole way. As far as vendor suggestions, she’s worked with many in the area and I consistently heard great things about her from the other vendors I spoke to. She had suggestions based on her previous experiences, but was completely open to researching other options if something wasn’t the right fit. She was cost-conscious but also understanding of the industry. She wanted us to get what we paid for, and more if possible. Now for the day of…we had a PACKED day: a baraat (complete with a horse), 2 ceremonies split by lunch, cocktails and reception in the evening. My uncle served in the Indian Air Force and he kept complimenting on how everything ran on time. Every little detail, some that only a wedding planner would think of, was executed perfectly. In both the smallest and biggest ways, Jennifer made us feel so incredibly special on our wedding day.

g meeting (~4-5 Months out) opened my eyes to how much we truly needed the help of Jennifer and her expertise, attention to detail, and organization to make our vision a reality and our day run as smooth as possible. She planned our day to the minute and made it very easy to share information with our family and bridal party, which meant less calling, texting, and stress and made the week of very enjoyable. She also came to our final meetings and handled all of those little loose ends and in return we were very calm and happy bride and groom! We honestly think that having a day of planner like Jennifer is the best way to have FUN at your wedding and be able to look back on the photos and videos and know that you were present in the moment enjoying your special day! Thank you Jennifer for all of your help and support!

was able to relax and enjoy the day, knowing we were in good hands. My daughter was infinitely more relaxed too, because she trusted Jennifer with all the last minute details. I also appreciated her fast turnaround time on emails. That meant a lot to me. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her to you!

lan ahead and overall have a hard time delegating tasks to others- so I was hesitant to hire a wedding planner. Michelle exceeded all of my expectations. She was so on top of every detail- big or small. Every time I went to follow up with a vendor or complete a task, Michelle had already done it. Not only was Michelle organized and fun to work with, she has an eye for design. Michelle helped bring my pinterest ideas for florals (with the help of our wonderful florist) and linens to reality. She picked beautiful table linens and helped make our cookie table perfect. She also helped fine tune details I would have never thought of. Her work in setting up our day-of timeline was also immensely helpful; I couldnt imagine taking on that task. I could go on for hours about our positive experience working with Michelle at StR. We couldnt recommend her more highly!
