Two Little Birds Planning

ish, and she helped us in every way imaginable. She provided emotional support when things were stressful and practical support when we didn't know what we were doing. She made sure our wedding went off without a hitch, but also took the time to help us make the wedding uniquely us. We interviewed a handful of wedding planners initially. All of our consults went well, but there was one thing about our free consult with Jaclyn that stood out: it was nearly two hours long! It turns out that wasn’t a coincidence — it was truly representative of how she treats her couples. Over the twelve months we worked with her, she never once made us feel like we were taking too much of her time. It relieved so much stress to know that all we needed to do was get a call on the calendar with Jaclyn and she’d spend as much time as we needed to talk through everything on our minds. And it wasn’t just the time she spent with us that relieved stress; her sense of humor and warmth meant we always ended our marathon calls feeling better and happier than when they’d started. Jaclyn's knowledge of the Philadelphia wedding scene was particularly helpful given that we were planning the wedding remotely. For each vendor, she provided us with a curated list customized to our price-point and preferences, saving us hours of googling. All of her lists were on point. She also has relationships with seemingly every wedding vendor in Philly, and those relationships pay off. If a vendor ever told us they couldn't do something, Jaclyn would step in and almost always get us what we wanted, and she saved us money on more than one occasion. We moved halfway across the country without much notice a few months before our wedding. Suddenly, we were overwhelmed with life. Jaclyn had been great up to that point, but she took it to another level when she heard the news. At one point, she even highlighted a long email from a vendor so I only had to read the important parts, and she let us ship all of our decor to her house. At our rehearsal on Friday morning, we got a call from a rehearsal dinner vendor that they’d never received our payment and wouldn’t make the scheduled delivery. Jaclyn immediately stepped in and figured it out; five months later, we barely remember how it got sorted out, and it's moments like those that make us realize how lucky we were to have not only hired a planner, but to have hired one who takes initiative and gets things done. The wedding itself went off without a hitch, and that is a testament to Jaclyn and her team. She always made sure we had a drink in our hands and our favorite food on the table, and she went out of her way to make sure we (and our parents) got to try every single dessert. Knowing she was there allowed us to truly not worry about logistics and just enjoy the night. The fact that we actually kind of miss planning our wedding all these months later is a testament to her and much fun she made the process. Hiring a wedding planner isn’t cheap, but it’s one of the best decisions we’ve made as a couple. She kept us on task, encouraged us to dream big, was willing to tell us when an add-on wasn’t worth it, and mostly importantly, made sure the weekend was truly about us.

huge advocate for making sure that the happy couple made thoughtful decisions and their style really showed through. She had things things under control yet flexible when needed to be and gracious during the whole process. I could not have dreamed of a better experience from beginning to end. Thanks Jaclyn for executing to perfection! and our standards are high!

ife and planning the wedding that much easier without getting distracted or breaking the bank. Every time I panicked about a conflict, not only did Jaclyn appease those concerns but she always came up with a clever idea to overcome whatever obstacle I faced. She's super organized, extremely personable, and really really knows her stuff! If you're concerned about the cost of her services, I'm telling you, Jaclyn is worth EVERY PENNY.... through her organization and vendor recommendations she can actually SAVE you money! I'd hire Jaclyn again in a heartbeat!

She also works to make the wedding exactly what you want, and tries hard to make it reflect you. She's incredibly organized and keeps everyone calm throughout the entire process. Plus she's fun. Can't recommend her highly enough!

so clearly on top of everything and was such a calming influence that we were able to really sit back and relax - even the week before the wedding wasn't stressful. When the day came, Jaclyn made sure everything went according to plan. We really cannot overstate how helpful she was.

en recommending vendors (hair/makeup and bands) she provided options several price points that allowed us to prioritize what was important to us. We are not local to Philadelphia, where our venue was, so it was reassuring that Jaclyn had extensive experience with other out-of-town couples. Coming to the big week she was very helpful in arranging all of the details and coordinating our vendors so we did not need to worry about. We had a few last minute snafus regarding our after-party (that we had booked without her help) and she was able to step in and help out so we didn't need to worry about it the day before our wedding. Jaclyn went above and beyond to order some soft pretzels and pick up snacks when the catering options for the after party fell through. When our bridal suite wasn't set up for hair/make-up as needed and the bridal party's florals arrived at the wrong place, a quick call to Jaclyn fixed it. Jaclyn and her team were absolutely great in making sure all of our day-of decor and signage that we brought in was arranged as planned. We also had some pretty severe timing issues during the event itself as our ceremony went 2x the timing planned and we were running quite late. Jaclyn was able to coordinate all of the appropriate parties (security, venue, band, caterers, etc.) and arrange a time extension, as well as keep the evening moving so none of the guests realized we were off schedule and in a time extension. We would highly recommend Jaclyn to other couples in the Philly area!

were outstanding. We are so thankful for every one of your amazing qualities, especially now looking back knowing how important someone like you is to pulling off such a momentous occasion. We both feel like you exceeded our expectations in so many ways and as you know, our expectations were really high! Our day was virtually stress free, we felt confident every step of the way that you had our day completely under control. Most of all, you saw our vision and you helped make every last detail a beautiful unforgettable reality. With gratitude, Ryanne & Claude

legit, as is Two Little Birds! Two little birds is outstanding in every way from beginning to end and we only wished we hired her sooner. Prior to hiring Jaclyn, I was an out of town bride overwhelmed by all of the decisions and possible vendors I couldn’t meet in person. After I reached out to her 10 months from the wedding, I knew she was the one! She listened to my vision and what I had already accomplished and made a customized proposal not only keeping my budget in mind but also my piece of mind. If you’re at all like me you get lost in all of the ideas you saw on Pinterest and things to do. Not the case when working with Jaclyn! Throughout the process her personalized monthly checklists and vendor recommendations kept me focused. She is supreme at recommending vendors within your budget and identifying if vendor add-ons are financially worth it. Reading vendor contracts is never fun and she was excellent at reading through to make sure we were getting what we needed. She also responded to my long winded coffee fueled emails like a breeze. She’s prompt, funny, professional, personal and it feels like you are working with a close friend. As we got closer to the wedding I couldn’t imagine doing it without her. From hearing out my crazy ideas to suggesting small things like kinds of frames to use for signage she had us covered. I will never forget sitting in the venue meeting and my husband texting me “ thank god for Jaclyn” when the discussion turned to number of tables/table sizes and we had no idea. No worries- she knew exactly what we needed! The week of wedding Jaclyn and her team ( shout out Amanda!) were in frequent contact with us and our vendors and assisted in all last minute items. She helped run my rehearsal, day of timeline, figured out day of food for my bridesmaids, packed up my wedding items after the wedding and coordinated everything with ease. She did more than what I listed, but I wouldn’t know as I was stress free that week thanks to her. She is very well respected among vendors and it shows in the final product. There were zero hiccups and we owe it all to her! My family and friends were very impressed by her. Whether you live in the area or are an out of town like me do yourself a favor and hire Two Little Birds. Enjoy a stress free time planning with your spouse with her assistance. If you want your special day to be perfect then work with the best- you deserve it!

pporting us through every step. As out of towners we leaned on her knowledge, connections and recommendations to plan the wedding of our dreams. Jaclyn was helpful in every aspect of our wedding. When we struggled to find a rehearsal dinner location within budget, she put together a list of 5 options below our limit. When we needed transportation options, she found us the perfect choice and then planned all of the timing. Whenever we found ourselves confused our first move was to email Jaclyn. On the day of the wedding there was nothing to worry about because she would take care of it. She brought us peace of mind to truly be in the moment and enjoy the best day of our lives. We are forever grateful for all the help she provided. Our wedding day would not have been the same without her.

est person ever! Thank you so much to Jaclyn and team!

and I were in great hands with her. Hope you will decide to do the same!

Jaclyn a line to ask for advice on things early on and she was always quick to respond. As our wedding approached, Jaclyn was quick to help organize all of our vendors. She worked behind the scenes with our venue to make sure everything ran smoothly. Given all of the other details we had to worry about, this was a huge help. On the day of the wedding, Jaclyn and her team were a covert operation, making sure everything and everyone were where they needed to be. There was no detail left unnoticed. Everything, and I mean everything, went perfectly. To add to it, the next day when we woke up, all of our belongings from the venue were back at our apartment waiting for us, even things I thought I’d have to remind her to grab. She even found my friend’s lost wallet and cellphone on 3 separate occasions throughout the night (yes, read 3 times) and returned them to him. I could go on, but the bottom line is this - our wedding was everything we dreamed of and Jaclyn helped us plan it. Enough said.

mmunicate and organize all of our vendors months in advance, answering all of our emails in a timely manner, making recommendations along the way, setting up multiple calls, confirming with our vendors (including introducing herself to our Rabbi which thoroughly impressed him, as he told us that out of hundreds of weddings he has officiated has he NEVER had a planner call in advance), and even showing up to a venue planning meeting. On the day of our wedding, Jaclyn was such a calm yet cheerful presence who made us feel like everything was under control. We are so appreciative of everything she did and cannot recommend her enough!

ng. Jaclyn went above and beyond her role as a planner at every turn, from helping us with the most mundane decisions, answering our silly question, fighting off less than stellar vendors, being our advocate when things went wrong, celebrating with us as a friend when things went right, we were so relieved to have Jaclyn in our corner. Jaclyn not only helped us to bring our dream wedding to life, she also orchestrated the day with such apparent ease and calmness that any worries we had about logistics completely melted away for us and our family. Aside from us, Jaclyn took such great care in making sure that our parents were comfortable with all of the aspects of our very important event which allowed them to take a deep breath and enjoy every moment of the day without worry, knowing Jaclyn and her team had everything covered in the background - something we weren’t sure could happen! Two Little Birds planning was the best decision we made in terms of wedding decisions, I'd do it again in a second.

e me feel like I was her only client. She never forgot any details surrounding my wedding. I would highly recommend her to any bride looking for a planner.

er. From sending us choices for each vendor category, keeping us on track and on budget, attending vendor meetings with me, and negotiating contracts directly with our vendors she made each step of planning our wedding simple and enjoyable. Also - her advice and patience with us was invaluable. We often had what we thought were silly questions or struggled to make decisions and Jaclyn was always available to talk through any questions or concerns we had. Because of her experience it felt like she had an answer to every single question and concern. I cannot believe she had other couples and weddings going on during our engagement because it felt like we were always a priority to her. The month before our wedding Mike and I went on a two week vacation so coming back to work and all the last minute wedding details (mostly due to our own procrastination) was overwhelming. Two weeks before our wedding I called her to talk through our to do list. Not only did I find out she spent the Friday night before shopping for and putting together our bathroom boxes, she also had coordinated all last minute details with each of our vendors so our final calls would go quickly and focus on the things that mattered to us. She also worked directly with my parents and venue to ensure that our final catering details were exactly what we wanted. The day of the wedding - Jaclyn and her team were on top of everything. Mike and I, our families, and our wedding party were able to completely enjoy the day and stay present because we knew we could trust that Jaclyn and her team had everything under control. My bridesmaids all ask if Jaclyn has started a life coach business yet and my family refers to her as Saint Jaclyn. Jaclyn - we feel like we can’t thank you enough still for everything that you did! Our wedding was everything we had dreamed of and more.

ith and without us, and the respect and love we felt throughout the process made planning our wedding, and fully enjoying the weekend of our wedding, all the more special. As in most weddings, the goal is to bring together the most important people in your life to share in one of the most important moments of your life...needless to say, it is a big deal! Jaclyn understands and thrives in the importance of those moments, and embraces the challenges of the balancing act that planning a wedding truly is. She is also a dear friend to turn to with feelings and stress throughout the process. I see that this has been said before in earlier posts, but our wedding would not have been the most incredible day of our lives without her. We will have memories from her in keepsake boxes for the rest of our lives. What else could you possibly ask out of someone helping you plan your wedding? There is no way to thank her enough.

er team are the epitome of professional, but also know how to make a party go off without a hitch. Jaclyn and her team were absolutely essential to me and Devin- without them I wouldn’t have enjoyed the day half as much as we did.

the year we worked with her she continually blew us away. She was there whenever we needed her, and was always available for emails or calls (and would never make us feel rushed, which says so much about her and how she works). Every month she would do something else amazing that made us realize how utterly indebted we were to her. There are so many things that can go wrong during wedding planning that we didn't anticipate and she fixed every bump we encountered within hours. When our engagement session with our photographer (a vendor we chose without Jaclyn's input) went wrong, she dropped everything to find us a new one (whom we ended up absolutely loving). When two other vendors weren't getting along, she jumped in and fixed it. She volunteered to attend several vendor meetings she didn't have to, just because she wanted to make sure everything went smoothly for us. She was there to give advice on dress selection and even played therapist when things got a bit stressful. When we found out it would be cheaper to ship my dress to her house instead of mine, she even received it for us and drove out of her way so we could get it. I honestly can't imagine what would have happened to us if we'd tried to go through this process without her help. Her network of vendors is also incredible. She got our vision instantly, and for every thing we needed she'd have a list of vendors to choose from who were 1) all such nice people 2) so high-quality. But the most telling day was the wedding day. I thought I'd be stressed, but Jaclyn and her team were a blur behind the scenes making sure everything went smoothly. Not only did she coordinate all of the vendor arrivals and deliveries and set-ups (which in retrospect we never would have been able to handle ourselves), but during the actual wedding they were always on hand to make sure we enjoyed ourselves. When someone handed us a card or gift, one of them was at our side within seconds to take it for us. When we were thirsty, they'd pop us to offer us a drink. It was almost like magic — I think one of them was keeping an eye on us at all times. You'd think people would rave about the food or decoration after a wedding. But no — everyone who met her has been raving about Jaclyn for the past month. They were all blown away by her in just a few hours as guests or bridal party members, and immediately saw what we've seen for the past year! But beyond all that, she's just a good-hearted, kind, funny, wonderful person. You can tell right away she truly cares about her couples and what she does. I truly don't think we could have done this without her by our side, and I've honestly put off writing this because I didn't know how to express how grateful we were (because anything I could write would be insufficient)! Working with Jaclyn was hands-down the best and most significant decision we made in the planning process. If you're on the fence, hire her. We'd absolutely recommend her without reservation.

pared for everything, and able to remain calm and focused even in the midst of chaos. And most importantly, she was friendly and easy to work with. Even when I emailed her at 11:30 the night before the wedding freaking out about wrinkles in my dress, she got back to me within minutes ensuring me that she would make sure the dress wrinkle free - and she did! I cannot imagine enjoying my wedding half has much if I had not known that she was there to make sure that everything ran smoothly. I am so glad that we hired her, and I strongly recommend her to anyone else even considering it.

s that were bound to come up. Jaclyn was that and so SO much more! We didn't know how much we needed her wedding know-how until we were in the thick of it! She kept us in line and on schedule, coordinated with our vendors, was thoughtful with family members, created emergency pocket squares, and even did a last minute dress hemming! Her organization and professionalism were top notch, and we were completely at ease trusting her with our wedding. We could not have gotten through the day without her. Working with Two Little Birds Planning was one of the best wedding decisions we made! Thank you Jaclyn!!

from divorced family seating etiquette to where to get great soft pretzels, and ultimately was the one to hold it all together, make necessary changes on the fly and keep me from falling apart when I ended up with the stomach flu on my wedding day! Anyone would be lucky to have Jaclyn by their side as they plan such a significant event in their life.

her. We would highly recommend her.

d small -- we found Jaclyn and Two Little Birds. Easily THE BEST decision we ever could have made. As many have said, Jaclyn is rock-solid -- knowledgeable, detail-oriented, tenacious, kind and calm. We hired her for something between full-blown planning and day-of coordination. Throughout the process, it was invaluable knowing we had an advocate and expert at our side. On the day-of, it was easy to let go because we completely trusted Jaclyn to execute the event seamlessly. The other reviews do a great job describing the benefits of working with Two Little Birds. So I’ll add some specific highlights from our partnership (and I look at it that way, Jaclyn was our partner) -- 1) Micro-decisions and intangibles. No matter how many books and blogs you read, I’m not sure you can ever know about all the nuances of a wedding. Like, what are the interpersonal ramifications of sequencing the bridesmaids in this way? How will mic-ing the ceremony change the vibe? Your dress is made of delicate chiffon… is the path clear of twigs? Jaclyn not only knows that’s a thing -- but she also rolls up her sleeves and picks up those twigs. 2) We saved money with Jaclyn. She was able to dissect a large quote and bring costs down. And since we had her as a sounding board, she prevented us from spending on costly frills and mistakes. With all her experience on our side (and feedback saying “yes this is necessary” and “no, don’t worry about this”), we were able to spend smarter. 3) The Bridezilla antidote. There were a couple times when I was disappointed in what a vendor provided. Luckily, Jaclyn was there to listen to my concerns, tell me my feelings were valid, and work with the vendors to make things better. The benefit here is twofold: the problem is solved without you getting directly involved, and you feel heard/validated/not crazy. I think Bridezilla-itis happens when you feel out of control and that your wants/needs are being dismissed. Jaclyn solves all that with ease, leaving you one very chill bride. In short, Jaclyn is part air traffic controller, part wedding encyclopedia, part advocate, part friend. Highly recommend!

hone call later with Jaclyn changed his mind and throughout the entire process he kept saying - "Jaclyn is the best, thank goodness we have her, she's the best and smartest thing we could have done". I don't know what I would have done without her. She gave us a timeline and recommendations that made the whole process enjoyable - as it should be! On our wedding day, she seamlessly kept the day going and on schedule. She even sewed a piece of my Vera Wang gown back on like a pro as it had come off during transport. My bridesmaids kept saying "Jaclyn for president"! She is extremely responsive. We had countless emails and communications over several months and it was always a pleasure to talk to her. She will be like your best friend who knows everything about weddings. She'll make it a wonderful experience so that you can focus on what it is supposed to be - one of the best days of your life. She let me be as involved as I wanted to be while taking over the things I didn't. Without reservation, Jaclyn is the best thing you can do for yourself.

just a total rockstar at wedding planning! Jaclyn had wonderful recommendations on vendors, was excellant about keeping me on task and always had a ton of suggestions that were very helpful. It was such a relief to know that I could leave all of this in her more than capable hands and just enjoy my wedding day. I highly recommend working with Two Little Birds.

needed her. Even now, I have no idea if anything even went wrong on our amazing wedding day because Two Little Birds took care of everything! They kept the day stress-free, which is a priceless experience. They're the best!

'd had such positive experiences with their wedding planners.

the long 18 months it took to plan our across the country wedding. Jaclyn made everything incredibly easy for us. From giving us a list of reputable vendors in our budget (and seriously the woman has flawless taste), to giving us to do’s (and then another fifty reminder to do’s when you forget to do them) every month, to just simply holding your hand and listening to your concerns at all hours when she is on vacation with her family, Jaclyn is THE BEST. She is the reason our wedding was so perfect. She coordinated, called and set up everything. She took every burden I was carrying and not only handled it, but did it with grace and composure that I would have failed at. She read contracts for us, she went to bat for us when things didn’t go right, she was our saving grace. On my wedding day my family could not get over how calm I was, and she was that reason. I knew everything would be perfect, because she would make it that way. And if there was a single issue I didn’t hear about it, because she took care of it. She is the Olivia Pope of wedding planning. I didn’t trust anyone but her with anything, and because she took everything, my husband and family and I got to enjoy the wedding day. There were no tensions and no hurt feelings and it was simply perfect. Jaclyn was the first person I hired and I thank my lucky stars that we got her because I can’t imagine having to do it without her. She is a remarkable woman and a beautiful person inside and out. She made the best day of our lives just that because of the care and attention to detail that she pours into everything that she does. The best decision I made for our wedding without a doubt.

ial day. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to properly state how grateful I am for her and her team, but it was seriously the best investment we made. I was hesitant at first to hire a day-of-coordinator; my mom pushed the idea and I am SO glad she did. Jaclyn was there every step of the way – sending monthly check lists and making her opinions and ideas available to me when I was stuck on décor, presentation, etc. Her knowledge and advice was so valuable. And the day of was absolutely perfect thanks to her and her team. She brought two assistants with her, Amanda and Gina, who helped with literally EVERYTHING that came up: whether it was unexpectedly havig to clip the sprigs and setting up the place settings, coordinating with all of the vendors, or making unexpected trips back to the hotel for forgotten items (namely the flabongo!) it was amazing having them by our side. When things came up that needed to be handled I didn’t even have time to ask them – Jaclyn and the assistants were right there with the answer. I can’t recommend Jaclyn and her team enough. It was an absolute blast and a blessing to have her as a part of our day.

d wonderful vendor options, always communicated quickly via phone or email, attended all meetings and events to provide support, negotiated contracts, even acted as photographer at the bridal shower when she saw the need without being asked! From her confident leadership to her thoughtful decisions, Jaclyn went above and beyond to help my daughter make her vision a reality.....the most beautiful & special wedding! Absolute Perfection! We have found a True Friend! Thank You Jaclyn & Two Little Birds!

d it allowed us to enjoy it even more. She was VERY QUICK to respond to emails and would even answer text messages. She never made me feel like I was “on the clock” when I spoke with her on the phone. Jaclyn went on site visits with me to select the venue and attended meetings with the caterer we selected. She was invaluable in these meetings - asking all the questions I wouldn't have thought of and was not afraid to make requests. She reviewed all contracts before I signed them and made sure that everything was as it should be. She always brought everything back to what I said that I wanted for my wedding and was very helpful with guiding us through our decision-making – especially when we would get side-tracked. She was also very good at keeping us in check in terms of budget and helping us stay within a range that we were comfortable with. On the day of the wedding, Jaclyn and her team of girls worked their hardest to make sure that everything ran smoothly and on time! Any time I thought of something that might be an issue or a problem, she instantly said, “Don’t worry about it, that’s already taken care of.” She literally thought of EVERYTHING! My husband and I were able to enjoy our wedding day because she was on top of everything and we didn’t have to worry about a single thing! This also allowed my parents and the bridal party to enjoy the day instead of worrying about all of those little details on the day of the wedding. We are so grateful to have had Jaclyn guide us through this journey and we couldn’t have been happier with the results! We love Jaclyn and I would recommend her a thousand times over as a wedding planner to anyone! Thank you for everything, Jaclyn! You are simply amazing and THE BEST at what you do!

n her due to her glowing reviews for over a year before I was even engaged. My husband and I have anxiety disorders and are small business owners with very little time to work with. Hiring a full time planner was a must. When I first called Jaclyn, I felt like I was talking to an old friend. She wasn’t uptight or too “businessy”. I cannot stress how easy she was to talk to. She met with us several times throughout our planning process, and sent me a customized list of suggested vendors in any given category based on the vision I described to her about each detail. She answered emails and calls almost immediately, always calming me down if I was upset or concerned about something. How the heck she manages to be so calming is beyond me. She handled some bigger issues I had with vendors and felt nervous about addressing. She was always polite and friendly with them, but very stern when needed. She put together a great timeline for the day of, coordinated and confirmed it all with my vendors, and even attended and ran our rehearsal the evening before with her two assistants. The day of was seamless. She kept all the kids in the wedding in line with gummy bears (they still talk about her), and managed to keep both of us relaxed. It was great to just direct people’s questions to her instead of fielding a ton of last minute pressure. Because of her, not one single thing went wrong the entire day. I used to joke to friends that if she suddenly asked me for more money, I would have given it to her. She was the single most important vendor we chose to hire. If you want to enjoy your wedding, budget TLB planning in. Because of her, we had an incredibly relaxing and enjoyable wedding experience that we will remember forever. <3

take on any predicament that may come their way. I HIGHLY recommend Two Little Birds Planning as they were an intricate part of our wedding day and I know I probably would not have survived it without them.

r family has a lot of experience with Jaclyn - having 3 weddings in just over 3 years - and she puts so much time and energy into getting to know each couple. Her thoughtfulness and attention to detail made what could have been a stressful process so much easier. I, without hesitation, recommend Jaclyn to anyone I know that gets engaged! I highly recommend Two Little Birds!

to work with. The one thing that sticks out in my mind with Jaclyn was that she made it all work and all happen. Her responses to everything was positive and everything was “Yes! We’re doing it!” Even in my most absurd requests, she had absolutely no hesitation and it was “Yes, it will happen.” I loved that about her. She was extremely thorough and it’s proven with the 18 page timeline of our wedding day. Being from Philly, but living in North Carolina, the wedding was out of state of us. My husband and I were married in Rittenhouse Square Philadelphia with our reception at the Union League in Philadelphia in August, 2015. She executed the day with total success. We found Jaclyn through a friend’s referral and we are SO happy we went with her. If you're trying to make a decision, I wouldn’t steer you in the wrong direction…book her. She is incredible and she will get the job done. My mother was going to try and take the day on herself and we both agree she was the best investment we made. She and Gina worked so incredible hard and she was by my side the whole day/night. What are you waiting for?! Pick up the phone and call! :) Feel free to watch our video below. Everything you see, Two Little Birds made it happen (crowns included!) https://vimeo.com/137779503

time for planning and tend to be pretty disorganized. Jaclyn was incredibly understanding, and helped us every step of the way, keeping track of every date, deadline, and detail, all with a friendly and laid back attitude that made what was often a stressful and overwhelming process seem manageable. On top of that, Jaclyn was super helpful in finding ways to save money, or suggesting things that we might need (or not need!) along the way. On the day of the wedding, it was clear from the start that Jaclyn was on the ball. She had every detail under control, and if any issues presented themselves, she was totally accommodating and made sure it happened. I've been at other weddings where wedding planners seemed flustered, stressed, and irritable - Jaclyn was the opposite of this in every way. I had multiple guests come up to me after the wedding and actually mention "Hey who was your wedding planner? She was great!". I don't offer recommendations lightly, and Jaclyn was one of the best service providers I've worked with in any capacity. As a dude speaking to other future grooms - there's a lot that goes into planning a wedding, probably more than you ever expected. You want someone who is going to handle the complexity and the details, and just make it so you can focus on planning an awesome event for your family and friends. Jaclyn and her team are 100% the people to do this, just trust me, you'll thank me later! 5/5 stars, A+, recommend wholeheartedly.

ugh good things about Two Little Birds. So glad we worked with Jaclyn and team! Would highly recommend them for anyone looking for a true wedding planning professional.

atement. She absolutely blew us out of the water with her organization, professionalism, attention to detail and just perfection. I can honestly say our wedding wouldn't have been even close to as amazing as it was without her, she MADE it happen! She was always so responsive by emails, came with us to the venue to make sure that every single detail was taken care, had the most organized and efficient day of plan that every single vendor commented on how organized and detailed it was, and made sure all of our vendors were on the same page. When we were stressed she was the most calming presence and always answered me with the most logical and comforting responses. She really went above and beyond what she needed to do and the wedding day was perfect because of her! I don't know if we could ever thank her enough for everything she did and I would recommend Jaclyn to absolutely every single person, she's perfection!!! Don't pass her up, I promise you won't regret it!

y! After an hour and a half phone call, I knew we had to hire Jaclyn for full service wedding coordination. Our engagement was stress free and fun because of her. It was so nice to have Jaclyn give us a list of her top 5 vendors; we’d pick 2 or 3, Skype meetings were arranged, proposals drafted, and then we would sign contracts. Jaclyn did all of the heavy lifting in the months preceding the wedding, and we got to focus on the fun, exciting things. Fast forward to our wedding day… Jaclyn took our vision and brought it to life in the most beautiful ceremony and reception space I’ve ever seen. Everything went so smoothly, from hair and makeup, to the last dance. Jaclyn and her team did all of the organizing, arranging, and coordinating to ensure that our day went flawlessly. At the end of the evening, I was sad that we had to say goodbye. If you want a headache free engagement that results in the wedding of your dreams, hire Two Little Birds Planning. Jaclyn and her team are worth their weight in gold!

g day. Her attention to every detail from rehearsal, reception to sunday brunch, and keeping all parties including vendors, bridal parties, but most of all, Mothers happy. We all agreed that Jaclyn and her staff were the key to planning a wedding in Philadelphia when I live in NC and definitely the right choice in making things happen on a very important day !

to speak with me to hear my wedding "vision" and was always there if I needed to call or email her. I felt so calm and confident that my big day was going to happen flawlessly because of her- I was not worried about ANYTHING! I have to admit, I wasn't sure why we would have needed a day-of planner, but after one phone call, I knew hiring Jaclyn was the right call- there are so many little things to think about it on the big day, that as the bride, you don't want to have to think about- all of those things were taken care of by Jaclyn. She was so personable and sensitive and just unbelievably on top of it. I recommend TLB planning to anyone and everyone- I can't say enough good things about Jaclyn.

th Jersey and our wedding was in Phila, she was prompt to every meeting and spent as long as we needed reviewing details and concerns. She was always accessible, by phone or email, and her timeline could not have been any more inclusive! She organized our rehearsal and has had a lot of experience working with the staff at the Horticulture Center. She reviewed and confirmed every contact with our vendors the week of, and took care of all our extra details the day of...Ie; gifts, programs, escort board, chuppah essentials, vanity baskets...you name it! She was the last to leave the event, having totally packed our car with every item that needed to go home or to our brunch venue. She gave us advice on tipping and distributed all our envelopes to the vendors that evening. Jaclyn was just a delight to work with...she is sensitive to the needs of all involved, and her kind approach is what draws you to her. We recommended her to our friend who is having a wedding in Jan before our event event even took place....that is how confident we were in her abilities.

ns and advice. After our first official meeting and walk through, she immediately began organizing all of our details, getting in touch with our vendors, making sure all of our contracts were in order...the list goes on! Hiring her for day-of coordination, I thought she would just take over a week or so before the wedding, but Jaclyn did so much to help us during the months leading up to the wedding. One of the things I loved most about working with Jaclyn was her ability to be both "strictly business" and so much fun at the same time. She was professional, meticulous, organized, and purposeful - all with a smile on her face and a spring in her step! Her presence alone on the day of the wedding was enough to prevent my fiance and I from getting stressed out. She perfectly placed all of our DIY items and made sure all of the little pieces of the wedding went on without a hiccup. And she made sure we got a plate of all of our appetizers, even though we did our pictures during cocktail hour! I thought using a day of coordinator and not having to think about anything detail-related on the day of my wedding was the best decision I made, but Jaclyn took that to another level - she was the glue that held all the pieces of our wedding together and there's no way I could have had so much fun at my own wedding without her there. She is the absolute best and I would recommend her to everyone!!!

wedding day. To give an anecdote, our wedding day was a little rainy at the start, but weather reports indicated sunny skies for the ceremony. Of course the time of the ceremony came, and it was still raining, but I was determined to wait it out. Jaclyn and her assistant kept all the vendors in line (even the high strung florist), and made sure our guests had extra beverages. The ceremony went off flawlessly outside, and there was even a rainbow when we were walking down the aisle!

had the time nor the creativity and expertise to plan our own wedding! We met with several wedding planners in the Philadelphia area, all of whom seemed to have the expertise for what we wanted. But Jaclyn was the person we both immediately clicked with after one phone call. You see, Jaclyn is not just an organized, creative, meticulous wedding planner (and she IS all those things), but she is also one of the most genuine, kind-hearted, and loving people I've ever met. She is filled with boundless energy and enthusiasm, and every time I spoke with her, I left with a smile on my face. Now wouldn't you want that during your engagement?? I honestly would not have made it through the wedding planning process without Jaclyn. She was always accessible by phone or email and never made me feel like she was too busy to answer my tiniest question at any moment. She also is amazingly creative and resourceful and frequently suggested ideas for our ceremony or reception that I simply would never have thought of, and subsequently loved. Most importantly (for me), she was always mindful of our budget and came up with endless ways to help us save money, whether it was finding vendors, or ways of cutting corners in the ceremony/reception. Our wedding day itself was perfect, thanks to Jaclyn. She attended to every little detail from the beginning of the day to the end (including remembering to bring me a white umbrella for the rain!!!). She was incredibly patient, despite our loud and crazy families, and despite a few tears (from me)! Several of our friends reported seeing her at work behind-the-scenes, never flustered, always professional, and taking care of every little fire without us ever knowing. Both of us were almost sad when the wedding ended because it meant the end of our professional relationship with Jaclyn. We truly cannot say enough good things about her. She is the consummate professional, extremely detail-oriented, and...I cannot emphasize this enough, she clearly loves her job and is extremely dedicated to it. Hiring her was hands-down the best decision we made for our wedding (besides finding each other).

feel that we made a true friend. From beginning to end, Jaclyn was professional and efficient while remaining flexible and fun to work with. She was always attentive to our ideas and honest about what could and could not be done. Whenever an idea proved to be impractical, she was great at coming up with creative alternatives. After five months of planning, we decided to move our wedding date from September 2014 to May 2014. With 300 invited guests, the much shorter timeline could have resulted in a planning disaster, but Jaclyn handled the change so seamlessly that we barely felt the difference. On the day of the wedding, my husband and I joked that Jaclyn must have magical powers because she somehow managed to appear at our sides whenever we wished for her. She calmly and gracefully herded us in the right direction when we lost track of the itinerary, answered our questions when we got confused about what we were supposed to do or say, and brought us drinks and ice cream when we were too busy greeting guests to enjoy any of the abundant food. When we arrived at our honeymoon suite after the wedding, we almost expected Jaclyn to be there to let us know what to do next. The wedding, reception and rehearsal dinner were all just perfect and everything we had hoped for. We were told by many of our guests that it was the best and most memorable wedding they'd ever attended, and Jaclyn even got us featured on Green Wedding Shoes. Words really cannot express how grateful we are to Jaclyn for making our dream wedding a reality. Thanks, Jaclyn!!!

ngs to me on the the points I needed to weigh in on. Furthermore, my wife was pregnant and juggling work, and Jaclyn's "can-do" attitude, responsiveness, and willingness to go to toe-to-toe with vendors gave us some much needed stress relief. Ultimately, we ended up with the most amazing wedding we could imagine even though it rained and we had to go to plan B. Jaclyn had helped us design the magical and unique wedding we wanted in just 9 months. We could not have done it without her, and it was such a success that the wedding was featured in a prestigious wedding blog (Green Wedding Shoes). I rarely have fun at weddings, so thanks to Jaclyn for making it possible to have a ball at my own!

l to have some expert advice and direction. I agreed and it may have saved my relationship :) Yes, that is a bit dramatic, but seriously, when times got tough, Jaclyn was there to assure me it would be okay and even took on a few projects that would have otherwise been nixed for sanity's sake. I would highly recommend working with Two Little Birds if you're someone who needs an extra pair of hands and some peace of mind while juggling a wedding, a full-time job and other personal responsibilities. Both Jaclyn and Megan (her assistant) were there on the day of to set up, clean up, and make sure things went smoothly. And smoothly they went. The day was perfect and we would not have been able to have as much fun if they weren't there every step of the way.

ose ends. Two Little Birds came to my rescue. They were willing to customize a package for our small boutique event. They suggested excellent vendors I never would have found on my own to alter my dress, host the ceremony, photograph the event, and ensure that we actually got married on the day that we had planned. While we didn't use the "day of event" services, Jacklyn called to ask if we needed anything and sent texts and emails to make sure that we were happy. Without Two Little Birds, I'm not sure we would have managed to pull it off. Two Little Birds was certainly the best planning decision that we made. Thank you!!

first and immediately following our meeting, I called and canceled my other appointments – I knew she was the one. Not only did I find Jaclyn to be incredibly attentive, thorough, and professional upon our introduction (and throughout the entire planning process), but I also found her to be approachable and relatable. With each and every interaction - by phone, text, email, or in person – Jaclyn still made me feel as if I were her only client (even while knowing that she had multiple weddings before and after my own!) She would always get back to me in a timely manner and would respond in ways that made me feel respected and appreciated. Admittedly, there were times when my type-A would take over and send Jaclyn PAGES of pictures, thoughts, and plans (something that probably would have driven others crazy) and yet, Jaclyn would always reply with exactly the level of attention and intensity that I was hoping for. Often, I would open my email to find her responses with highlighting, bolding, notes, and suggestions. She addressed every single point and made sure to question or ask for clarification so that she could completely understand and commit to our vision. Jaclyn helped me to feel completely comfortable throughout my planning and most importantly, put my mind at total ease as my big day neared. Thanks to her EPIC timeline that included every little detail imaginable, my wedding weekend was stress free and absolutely flawless. Choosing Two Little Birds was easily the best decision we made – a big thank you to Jaclyn – we couldn’t have done it without you!

. As a bride, I was very hands-on in terms of wedding planning, but Jaclyn was the perfect partner for me. She went through all of my emails carefully to make sure she took care of all of the details I wanted for the wedding. I particularly valued her time and efforts in the last month as the wedding - she took care of a very detailed wedding weekend schedule and contacting all of my vendors - which was greatly appreciated during the most stressful few weeks of the process. Similarly, Jaclyn handled everything with care and ease the day of the wedding and I honestly could not have survived the day without her!

rking full time. I was still apprehensive about hiring a wedding planner because I felt as if that was an expense I could use towards something else; however, the instant I met Jaclyn I knew that it was the best investment I would ever make. Jaclyn was likeable, confidant, calm, and organized. She exhibited every quality you wanted from someone who was helping you plan one of the biggest events of your life. She sent monthly checklists, went with me to my venue visits and was really great about making sure my vendors stayed on task. The last few weeks before my wedding Jaclyn exceeded my expectations. She became my organizer, problem solver and therapist. Any question I had she had a solution having the ability to anticipate the unexpected. On the day of my wedding I literally didn’t have to do anything. Everything thing was handled. This provided me tranquility, possibly the best wedding gifts you could give to the bride. I honestly do not know what I would have done without her. My wedding was everything I could have imagined and much more. I realize that it would not have been possible without my planner.

That "someone" was Jaclyn of TLB. From the moment I met her, I knew that my wedding day plans were in capable hands. In the weeks leading up to the big day, Jaclyn was in constant communication with me, helping me put together a timeline, and making sure that she had every detail, vendor, location, time, and item in check. She attended our rehearsal, where she helped coordinate our bridal party and readers, providing them with instruction and direction. And on our wedding day, she was there bright and early with a calm and reassuring demeanor. Jaclyn and her associates at TLB were instrumental in allowing me and my husband to be able to simply relax and enjoy one another, our friends and families, and our special day. After a year of painstakingly planning each and every moment of this day, you should be allowed to enjoy it fully and completely. You simply do not want to be worried about when the florist will arrive, or how many votives are being placed on the tables! Jaclyn and TLB helped my wedding day run smoothly, and effortlessly. Their service is excellent, and an amazing value. A relatively small investment in TLB will reap limitless benefits on your wedding day, I assure you. I would highly recommend their services to any brides looking for a reliable, professional, fun, and friendly planning team.

ack with everything, and even ran to the store the day of our wedding to pick up some last minute things! I cannot recommend them enough.

erything ran seamlessly. Her timelines and thoughtful phone calls and meetings ensured that I was more calm and confident in our plans, and had every detail I needed. Moreover I was completely confident in Jaclyn and her team. On the day of the wedding everything was seemingly effortless as the wedding we had envisioned came to fruition. From photos around town to transportation to setting up the venue with our DIY projects, TLB made sure things went to plan. Everything was just perfect and I know we could not have done it without TLB. Most importantly they were all so lovely and we had so much fun and felt so comfortable with them. I would highly recommend hiring Two Little Birds for your wedding!

ess crisis on the way to the church and Lanie stepped in and fixed the problem in no time, a true professional! Both Jaclyn and Lanie were absolutely amazing! My Sister got married this past summer and she too used Two Little Birds as well. Search no further if you want the best wedding planners around. I would highly recommend their team to anyone!

the wedding what we wanted - which she did. Jaclyn was a very calming influence - especially for my wife - and was really helpful with coordinating with our many different vendors. On the day of the wedding, she and her team were all over the place but remained calm and everything turned our great. I would recommend Jaclyn and Two Little Birds to anyone.

nning details from the reception timeline to the coordination of guest transportation. The day of the wedding she and her team made everything perfect - and averted a few minor disasters, including running out of alcohol at the reception (we supplied it, and her team ran out and bought more) and me misplacing tip envelopes (they found them in a bag at another hotel). Jaclyn is so nice and helpful and worked hard to make my wedding amazing!! I cannot recommend two little birds enough!

ng and I honestly cannot imagine how I would’ve gotten through the planning process without them! From the minute we met them, their professionalism was obvious and they were incredibly warm, calming, organized and friendly! They were able to take our very specific ideas and bring them to life. We selected one vendor that was particularly challenging to deal with and they navigated it for me and endured all the stress that I would’ve had to deal with if we weren’t working with them. Their knowledge of vendors was so helpful and they are expert at reviewing and negotiating contracts. They will ensure that you get the most for your money! I knew that they would have everything under control the day of the wedding as they prepared an extensive schedule to be followed by vendors, family, etc. I didn’t have to worry about a thing and that was priceless! One thing I will never forget is that Jaclyn and Caroline made sure my new husband and I had a few moments to ourselves during the day to just savor the moment of being newly married! They are the best! Our wedding was special and perfect because of all of their hard work!

ecommend Two Little Birds Wedding Planners to anyone! Thank You Again Jaclyn Lori and Joe Colacci

ndors, I look back and realize how frantic/crazy/stressed I would have been doing all of that myself. But I wasn't- I was happy, calm, and excited the days leading up to our wedding, and that was all due to Two Little Birds! You truly made our wedding day the best it could be. THANK YOU!
