Working with Jessie has been hands down the best decision we made for our wedding. From our very first meeting, I felt like she understood what I wanted for my wedding and helped craft the tone and vision for my wedding. Even when I didn’t know what I wanted, her partnership and collaboration, patience and creativity helped figure out exactly what I was looking for and then bring it to life! Wedding planning has been stress free and most of all FUN because of Jessie and we just couldn’t appreciate her more. She’s a planner who really listens to you, turns over every stone to make your dream become a reality, clearly has your best interests at heart and puts so much thought behind every step of the planning process. We couldn’t recommend her enough, she gets all of the stars!!
I am a former event planner so transparently I hVe very high standards for the event professionals I work with. For the last few years I've worked with Jessie on 3 or 4 events and can honestly say she is the best. Throughout the planning process she was clear and communicative, explaining details and telling me exactly what she needed from me. Her positivity and enthusiasm for the events space also shines through and helped me feel a lot less stressed about how the evening would go. Honestly I couldn't have asked for more. I felt so cared for working with Jessie and would love to work with her again.

Hi, I'm Jessie, the heart behind Tigerlily Events Co., a Berkeley-based wedding and event planning company serving the greater Bay Area and California. I started Tigerlily because every celebration should feel deeply personal, rooted in your story, your people, and the moments that make you, you.
I specialize in soulful, sustainable weddings and events that feel effortless for guests and meaningful for you. I offer full service planning, partial planning, and month-of coordination. Not sure what you need? We'll figure it out together.
I partner with local vendors, prioritize sustainability at every turn, and think through every detail so you can just show up and feel it. A portion of every event supports pro bono birthday and grad parties for foster youth in SF through SFCASA, because everyone deserves to be celebrated.

Hi, I'm Jessie — the heart behind Tigerlily Events Co. I hold a business degree from UC Berkeley and bring over a decade of experience, from polished corporate events to joyful kids' cooking parties. I've led events at LinkedIn and Culinary Artistas, and collaborated with some of the nation's top luxury wedding planners. You're equally likely to find me fine-tuning a timeline at 2am or on the dance floor. I bring that balance of precision and play to every event. As a CASA advocate, a portion of every Tigerlily event supports foster youth in SF. This is where it all comes together for me. All are welcome!
What sets me apart is striking that balance. Bold yet soft. Soulful yet sustainable. Intentional yet fun. Just like a tiger and a lily. I have a diverse repatoire of experience from corporate events to luxury weddings to kids nonprofits. I show up with genuine care: for the planet, for your story, and for the wider community. This isn't just planning an event. It's curating a memory.
In three words: Calm, Collaborative, Resourceful
