Wedding planning is probably unfamiliar territory to you, but I live and breathe all of it, from timetables and vendor contracts, to napkin folds and charger plates. I know what you don't know, and I can't wait to dive in.
Fun-loving lady boss, wife, and mama of two littles. Big Prosecco lover, part-time gym junkie. Environmentally conscious and devoted to my community.

We are really, really good at taking care of our clients, and we're thinking of the details that you don't know to ask about, like whether the venue's electrical system can handle the entertainment and how the rental company can access your tent.
We're also making sure to carve out private moments throughout the day for you to recharge and soak it all in. You deserve a pro on your side to guide you and care for you during the grandest party you will ever throw.
Here at JSE, planning a visually spectacular event is a top priority.
Our weddings are design-forward, and our clients appreciate exceptional florals, exquisite linens, unique lighting designs, and fine stationery.
And while we love and appreciate all weddings, building classically beautiful events is a non-negotiable for us. It's our passion and point of pride. We aren't just designing a party, we're creating a core memory for you and your families.

I'm not going to lie. My now husband initially scoffed at the idea of a day of coordinator, calling it a "waste of money", thinking we could handle everything ourselves. Well...fast forward to the day of our wedding, and one of the first things he said to me was "the second I walked in the venue and saw Jen pulling everything together, I knew we didn't have to worry about anything, and could just relax and enjoy our wedding day. It was probably the best thing we spent money on." I don't think I need to say more about how amazing Jen's day of services are then my completely stubborn and frugal husband eating his words :D. Not only did she make our wedding day absolutely seamless (I mean we literally didn't have to deal with any logistics...), she was also a huuuuuge help during the planning process. I was a long distance bride, who didn't know the area well, and she was there every step of the way to answer all of my questions, from vendor recommendations, to measurements, to floorplans and beyond. Thank you again Jen!

We are so happy we hired Jen! The venue we chose required you to hire a caterer and rent all the necessities such as linens, glassware etc. Jen knows exactly how to do it and tries her best to stay in your budget. Jen is so kind and calm no matter what hiccup may occur. I can not say more nice things about Jen. If you are on the fence about hiring a wedding coordinator, just do it! You will not regret it and you most certainly need Jen in your corner.
There is no better planner out there. You can stop looking now and just book Jen. Our wedding went off without a hitch, and neither my wife or I had to deal with any vendors day of because Jen was always in the background taking care of everything. If I ever get married again (which I don't intend to), I will definitely give Jen another call!

I was a very type A bride and for many months I didn’t think I would even need a planner. I finally decided that no matter how organized I was, having someone there to take all my anxiety and worry away about vendors showing up and things being set up properly is exactly what I needed. Right from the start Jen attended a site visit with us, was always a message away and was also my hype girl throughout the planning process. Jen was also so quick to answer any of my random questions like how exactly do these meal cards work? And so much more. On my wedding day, Jen was amazing. The morning of I texted her an SOS message of my father and brother attempting to get our ceremony arch in place. We laughed about it knowing they did their best but I knew Jen was on it and would be there to fix the flowers and the drapes. During the ceremony Jen made everything run so smoothly. I honestly had the most perfect wedding day and I can’t say enough positive things. Thank you so much Jen!
