Founder, The Modern Bride Guide
Hi, I’m Jess, founder of The Modern Bride Guide -I'm so glad you're here :)
While planning my own dream destination wedding in Cabo, I discovered my true passion for all things wedding. I quickly realized I wanted to help other brides navigate their own planning journeys, ensuring they created the wedding day they’ve always envisioned.
After hearing from so many friends about their wedding regrets, I knew I wanted to offer a service that would help brides avoid those same feelings. My own wedding day went off without a hitch, and I want every bride I work with to feel the same joy and confidence, leaving their big day with zero wedding regrets—only incredible memories to last a lifetime.
At The Modern Bride Guide, we're dedicated to helping you plan a wedding that’s not only true to your vision, but also authentic to you as a couple—creating a celebration that feels uniquely yours and one that you’ll cherish forever.
