Jess was an amazing day of wedding coordinator! She went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of on the wedding day so that my now husband and I could focus on simply enjoying the day! She even assisted us with ordering flowers for our centerpieces and setting them up! She is also very affordable and easy to work with. I would highly recommend her to any up coming bride and groom!
Thanks again Jess!

Perfectly Executed
In the beginning, I only wanted Jess to be my day of coordinator but my mom talked me into the partial planning. Let me tell you... I was so relieved I was convinced to do so. You never realize how much actually goes into wedding planning. Jess alleviated all of my stress and she kept me on track over the 10 months of planning. We'd hop on planning calls and she would ask how I was and I would just have this deer in the headlights look on my face that screamed "NO!" lol By the end of the call, she'd follow up and ask the same question and I would feel so much better. This ain't her first rodeo... clearly... so I was so blessed to have her help. She was so on top of it. Even the day of, I wasn't asked a bunch of questions of where things go, etc.. It was just handled and executed beautifully! Thanks Jess!!!

Absolutely Amazing!
We loved working with Jess for our very small October wedding this past year. She is very responsive, super flexible and is on top of everything. Our whole planning experience and wedding day went beautifully because of Jess.
We loved our wedding day and were so happy with the service Jess was able to provide. She made sure we were on top of payments, detials and booking. She helped out exactly where we needed her and helped our vision of our day come to life. She is very laid back and never seems stressed even during very busy wedding season.
I am very happy with the quality of work we got and to be able to have someone take over for us. She really did make the wedding process and day a breeze!

A Must Hire!
My now wife and I hired Jess as our event day coordinator for our wedding this past weekend. With her help everything went perfectly. We had so many moving parts and last minute changes, Jess was on top of all of it. Even just the planning part, there are so many little things that you would never think of that Jess helps you organize for. Everything, everything went perfectly for our wedding and we know that, that would not have happened without all of her help. She’s a must hire!

We loved working with Jess
When I asked Jessica to be my wedding planner I had no idea what to expect. I thought that she would perhaps give me some professional advice and help relieve stress. But little did I know she would make wedding planning a fun and enjoyable experience. She did everything from looking at venue spaces, taste testing, color patterns, organizing tables, and more! She knew what questions to ask vendors to guarantee no hidden fees. Jessica helped Corey and I find the best prices and the best quality, while still allowing us to have complete access to everything. Corey and I were still in school and she made planning a wedding look effortless. Her sense of professionalism and connections in the event planning community is irreplaceable. We are so thankful for her and could not have planned our wedding without her! Planning the wedding of your dreams can be stressful, but it doesn't have to be. We highly recommend Jessica Levens!

Have your event planned by Jess!
If you are looking for a full-service planner or day-of coordinator, look no further! I loved working with Jess throughout the planning process and she made sure our wedding day ran smoothly despite all the challenges of having a wedding on a chilly day in the midst of a global pandemic. It was such a relief to know that Jess was keeping track of making sure that everything was happening on schedule throughout the planning and on the wedding day so that I could just relax and enjoy the process. It was so helpful to have someone else coordinating communication with vendors and understanding what the vision was for the wedding day so that I could just show up, get ready, and enjoy. I keep thinking back through the day and realizing all the effort and running around that Jess must have done to pull it all off - it would be my nightmare, but she says she loves it. My husband and I agree that she was worth every penny!

We would highly recommend Events by Jess
Jessica was simply awesome! She provided great insight, wedding tips & tricks, and helped with our design strategy. Jessica gave us and our families peace of mind, knowing that she was coordinating with our vendors, creating their timelines, directing the ceremony, setting up wedding decor and tables, and cleaning up for us at the end of the night. We didn’t have to worry about anything! We were able to enjoy our day to the fullest knowing that Jessica had everything under control for us. We would highly recommend her if you are looking for a wedding planner and coordinator!

Jess did a terrific job getting us organized
Jess did a terrific job getting us organized. Her references were excellent and made us very comfortable with her services. After the wedding we would definitely reference for her work. I would recommend adding the time for the rehearsal as that was important to getting our wedding organized. During the rehearsal she provided lots of good suggestions and asked lots of good questions we overlooked initially.

If you book Events by Jess for your wedding, you are guaranteed to be in excellent hands.
Jess made our wedding so easy and so worry-free. Jess stepped in to help us plan our modified wedding only a couple of weeks before our wedding day (we were extremely unprepared, to say the least!) and her level of organization and attention to detail turned our hot mess of a wedding into a beautifully seamless experience. I am a very organized person, but Jess takes organization and planning to the next level. Not only is Jess organized, she and her team are extremely helpful and accommodating. They know how to support the clients and they show up and meet the clients where they are. She asks questions you never would have thought to ask - and thank goodness she asks those questions. Not only does she take direction well, but she and her team constantly looked around for ways to help on the day of - plus, they made it fun!!! Jess will take the little details so that you don’t have to worry about them and so that you can enjoy your wedding day. Both of our families absolutely adored her and we can’t say enough great things about her. If you book Events by Jess for your wedding, you are guaranteed to be in excellent hands.
