I cannot say enough about Jen Render and team!!!! WOW! from beginning to end she put our minds at ease and took care of EVERYTHING! She was professional, kind and extremely knowledgeable . Her communication and response time was perfect! She has an amazing eye for detail and created a mind blowing setting for a perfect wedding and reception. If I had more children she would be my absolute choice!

Jen is absolutely incredible! Our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more, and we truly have her to thank for that. From start to finish, she provided the perfect balance of support, guidance, and honesty. We always felt like we were in the best hands. Her expertise and knowledge of the Paso Robles area was so appreciative as we navigated securing vendors. Without Jen, we would have been completely lost in securing our dream team. (Shoutout to the dream team: our bartenders, our caterer, our photographer, our DJ, our florists, and our rental company) Jen was our “momma bear” throughout the whole process, and her team was just as amazing. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day, and it’s all thanks to Jen. We are forever grateful!

Everything was perfect ❤️ and went like clockwork!’ Jen was always willing to give us her best and we will always be grateful

When we look back on our wedding day, my husband and I always say, “I’m so happy we found Jen!” From the very beginning, she was an absolute dream to work with. When I first started planning, I was completely overwhelmed, I had a vision in my head but no idea how to bring it to life. On top of that, I felt pressure from other planners to include certain “traditional” elements that just didn’t feel like us.
From our very first FaceTime call, Jen immediately put me at ease. She listened to what I wanted, reassured me that it was okay to do things our own way, and gave thoughtful, practical advice every step of the way. She had such a calm and confident presence that made me feel like everything was under control even when I started to spiral about small details, she always had a way of reminding me what truly mattered.
Jen not only helped us plan a day that felt completely true to who we are, but she also made the entire process enjoyable and stress-free. On the day of the wedding, everything ran so smoothly that I honestly have no idea if there were any hiccups because if there were, Jen handled them seamlessly!
She truly allowed us to be present and soak in every moment without worry. We can’t thank her enough for her expertise, warmth, and support. Hiring Jen was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we would recommend her to absolutely anyone.

I cannot recommend Jen highly enough! From start to finish, she made our wedding planning experience absolutely seamless. Her eye for design is exceptional—I had so many ideas and details in mind, but I struggled to pull them together into a cohesive vision. Jen took everything I loved and transformed it into something beautifully unified that exceeded my expectations.
Her attention to detail is unmatched. Nothing was too small or overlooked, and she made sure every element was perfectly executed. She also has wonderful relationships with vendors and coordinated everything flawlessly, which gave us such peace of mind.
Even though I consider myself organized, Jen went above and beyond by providing systems that kept us on track throughout the entire process.
But what truly sets Jen apart is how much she cares—not just about creating a beautiful event, but about YOUR experience. She genuinely invested in making sure we felt supported, heard, and excited every step of the way.
If you want a wedding planner who combines incredible talent with genuine heart, Jen is the one. We're so grateful we had her by our side!
Thank you, Jen!!

Hiring Jen and her team was hands-down the best decision we made for our wedding. She was absolutely incredible from start to finish. Every tiny detail — from the big picture vision to the smallest finishing touches — was thoughtfully planned and flawlessly executed. Even when I thought something would be impossible, she somehow always found a way to make it happen. Her creativity, resourcefulness, and calm, reassuring presence turned my dream wedding into a reality beyond what I ever imagined. But more than just being an extraordinary planner and designer, she is a truly wonderful person. Through this process, she didn’t just help us plan a wedding — she became family. Her warmth, professionalism, and genuine care made the experience joyful and stress-free. I will forever be grateful for everything she did to make our day so magical. If you're looking for someone who will pour their heart into your wedding and make every moment unforgettable, look no further.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you just doesn't seem like enough to express our profound gratitude for Jen and her team at Elle Render Events. Planning a wedding felt overwhelming and I knew that I needed help. I didn't even know where to start. Enter: Jen.

From our very first consultation, we immediately were made comfortable by her warmth and fun energy. She took us around to venues (in her car...AND brought delicious local snacks) and really helped us think through the pros/cons of various locations. She has so many connections with folks in the area and knows which vendors will be a good fit for any/all budgets.

She translated my incredibly vague vision ("rustic", "natural") into a cohesive and breathtaking reality. Every detail, from the floral arrangements to the table settings (who knew a striped napkin could make such a difference!), had an understated elegance that perfectly captured our personalities. She always brought it back to us. She found the cutest ways to incorporate our pride and joy (our two boston terriers). There was never anything that we "should" do or rules we had to follow -- she always encouraged us to make this about us and what we wanted.

Beyond the stunning visuals, what truly set Jen apart was her warm and nurturing presence. It felt like having a wonderfully organized and incredibly capable second mom guiding us through the entire process. Any anxieties or stresses that bubbled up were immediately squashed by her calm demeanor and reassuring words. On the day itself, we were able to be completely present, soaking in every moment, knowing that she and her team were handling everything flawlessly behind the scenes.

And "everything" truly meant everything. Jen's attention to detail was simply astounding. There were countless little touches that we didn't even know we needed, yet they all came together to create a seamless and magical experience for us and our guests. But the most incredible testament to her dedication was the surprise of a lifetime she helped me orchestrate for my fiancé – flying out his college mascot, Syracuse's Otto the Orange! The look on his face was absolutely priceless, and it's a memory we will cherish forever.

Our wedding was more than we could have ever imagined, a truly incredible event made possible by the extraordinary talents and heartfelt care of Jen and her team. If you're looking for a wedding planner who is not only incredibly skilled but also genuinely invested in making your day perfect and stress-free, look no further.

Thank you, Jen. Anthony and I will forever be indebted to you for making this the most perfect day.

When I first got engaged my friends all told me the number one thing I need is a wedding planner. We got married in Paso Robles and knew that we wanted someone connected to the community. I did a ton of research and was lucky enough to have found Jen! We connected right away and she just 'got' me (and my husband). She handled all of what would have been stressful things that came up and made the planning experience such an enjoyable one. Honestly... I enjoyed all of it! We not only worked together on my wedding but we became friends :) She truly made our vision come to life and it was the wedding of our dreams! The most magical day of our lives!

Our experience with Elle Render Events was exceptional from start to finish. Jen provided clear and proactive communication which was honestly so reassuring throughout the whole planning process. Her work is not only professional, but also innovative and creative as she brought our vision to life in the most beautiful way we could have ever imagined. Jen has such a warm and approachable energy, it honestly felt like working with a friend; my husband and I couldn't have done it without her. While we described the general feeling we wanted our wedding to have, Jen was able to take our words and create a tangible design that represented exactly the "backyard wedding" up a few notches into an elegant english countryside garden party meets forest dreamscape. My now husband, and I own our wedding venue and have some experience with hosting weddings at our venue, and to be totally honest, it was the best wedding we've ever had. No other planner has the attention to detail that Jen and her team has. She and her team kept us organized and on schedule, acting as our advocate with our vendors, ensuring we were able to fully enjoy our wedding day. Our wedding was truly perfect thanks to Jen and her amazing team. Our guests raved that it was one of the best weddings they ever attended. We truly couldn't have imagined it going better, and Elle Render Events was the driving force behind our dream day.

Jennifer was an absolute joy to work with! When we were searching for a wedding planner, the process felt overwhelming with so many great options to choose from. However, Jennifer immediately stood out as the perfect fit. From our first conversation, her confidence, direct approach, and ability to guide us through decision fatigue put us at ease. She has a great eye and a chic, modern style that we appreciated so much.
We came to Jennifer with lots of ideas for our wedding, and she turned them into reality. She paid meticulous attention to details and thought of things we never would have considered, ensuring the day went smoothly. Her organization, exceptional communication, and wealth of experience truly shone through every step of the way. Beyond her professional expertise, Jennifer is a wonderful person. She made what could have been a stressful process enjoyable and even fun! Her reassurance and positivity were exactly what we needed.
While we won’t be planning another wedding, we can’t wait to work with her again for future events. We can’t recommend Jennifer enough!
