" Words can't even begin to describe all that Jennifer did to make our wedding run as smoothly as humanly possible. She flawlessly handled thousands of texts and emails from me, dealt with difficult vendors, created the perfect timeline, kept me calm, and managed family members. "

OUR SPECIALTY

From being a trendy fashion and beauty editor to a meticulously detailed wedding and event planner, Jennifer's background is the perfect blend of an eye for design and structure needed to succeed in the events world.
