Events With Jules

We had an intimate wedding of only 34 people and figured a coordinator wasn't necessary. That is until our venue-provided coordinator left the company and we realized just how much stuff we'd be juggling the day of the wedding if we didn't have someone on our side helping us out. That's exactly what Jules was for us. We hired her as our month-of/day-of coordinator. Leading up the wedding, she gave us a thorough questionnaire that helped us figure out a lot of details we hadn't even thought of. She was quick to respond to all email and questions. Then the day of the wedding came around and I can say I felt fully at ease knowing Jules was there to work her magic in the background. At the end of the night, she packed up all of our decor and personal items from the venue and loaded it up in our car which was a logical detail we were stressing about until we hired Jules. She was even kind enough to drop the keys off at our hotel. I can't recommend her enough to future brides in the Monterey, Santa Cruz, or surrounding area!

There really aren’t enough complimentary words to express how grateful we are for Jules’ help on our wedding weekend. We had two large events in Santa Cruz - a welcome dinner for 120, and a wedding for 200, including almost 50 kids! While we started off already a little overwhelmed by planning, we had a major family health incident just weeks before the wedding that made everything more chaotic. Jules was the calm in the midst of our storm. She is thoughtful, insightful, friendly, professional, and really knows the industry. She has a wonderful staff team who worked on setup and bartending. She was in contact with all of the outside vendors, worked out details even with folks who were hard to track down, and was patient with last-minute pivots. We finished our wedding weekend feeling like we had attended the best party ever - without any of the stress that comes along with being the host of such a party, since Jules handled it all for us! Thank you thank you, Jules!

Julienne English from Events with Jules was my same-day coordinator for my rehearsal dinner and wedding day at Waterfall Lodge on March 27th and 28th, 2026. I also hired her additional staff members to help set up and decorate both nights. They were all professional, well-dressed, wonderful people who made everything look beautiful! Her and her team are amazing!!

Upon speaking to her, I immediately loved her vibe. She is warm and welcoming with a calming energy. I wanted to find a same-day coordinator who would contribute peace to the wedding day, and she absolutely does.

While planning the wedding, she was helpful in answering any questions I had and in organizing everything into a coordination worksheet, which made the wedding run smoothly.

We had multiple phone calls before the wedding day, and they were always chill and low-stress, and she was always easy to talk to!

I know I am not the only one, but going into the wedding, I had no idea how much goes on behind the scenes and all the little details that go into it, but Jules does, and she makes sure you’re not missing anything you need!

For the rehearsal dinner, Jules came, and we did a practice ceremony, and OMG the number of people talking and not paying attention was wild, lol. But Jules managed it so well, and she approached interacting with everyone in a fun way. My whole wedding party loved her! My sister/maid of honor asked if Jules was a Waterfall Lodge team member or if I found her myself, because she loved her so much and said Jules is an absolute gem!! It was important to me to find a cool same-day coordinator that I enjoyed being around, and I did!!!!

After the practice ceremony, we found out that the caterer for the rehearsal dinner didn’t include my food order lol. But, between Jules, Deb from Tap Trucks, and the Waterfall staff, they were able to get me new food in under an hour!! So, when an issue does arise, Jules makes sure to solve it super fast.

I needed to take an a/c break in the bridal cottage because I felt so tired lol, and she was so encouraging and understanding!!!

Her and her team set everything up so well, it all looked amazing, she even tied bows to my cake cutter and server, and she helped create the most ICONIC plate for our wedding cake photos. She has such good taste and is a visionary!!!!! All the layouts and placements of everything were so perfect.

She also unpacked and repacked everything perfectly, too. She is so good at her job, and I am so lucky I found her.

When Jules says she is here for you, she absolutely means it! On the wedding day, after the ceremony, dinner, and first dance, I asked if she could go grab my dog's food and heat it up so I could feed her in the bridal cabin, and she even helped me with that!!! If we forgot something, she’d help us grab it from wherever it was. She always made sure we were doing well and having fun. She is so supportive and encouraging, and I couldn’t be happier I hired her!!

From our very first meeting to the wedding day itself, Jules was so responsive, patient, and steady; she was a true calming force amid the chaos of wedding planning. ❤️

We hired Jules as our day-of coordinator, though she was so much more than that. As soon as we handed off our vendor info, she took charge and coordinated everything flawlessly, keeping us in the loop and making sure everyone was organized and on schedule the entire day. Having Jules on our team was especially reassuring because she knows our venue (Waterfall Lodge & Retreat in Ben Lomond, CA) inside and out. And since we actually booked the venue sight unseen because we live far away and instantly fell in love with it online, knowing we had someone as experienced and trusted as Jules made the whole process feel a lot less intimidating. It’s easy to see why she’s one of the venue’s preferred planners!

She was also incredibly helpful leading up to the big day, offering checklists, planning documents, and last-minute vendor suggestions we hadn’t even realized we needed. She helped us craft a timeline that actually made sense for us, which we didn’t know how much we’d appreciate until the day ran so seamlessly! And even though we DIY’d a lot of details (signage, printed materials, guest activities, etc.), we only had to give Jules a general idea of our vision and tell her where things would be stored on the wedding day. She took care of the rest and somehow brought everything to life exactly as we envisioned it - probably even better actually!

On the wedding day itself, Jules was everywhere she needed to be without ever feeling intrusive. She seemed totally chill but was clearly dialed in to every detail. She checked in with us at just the right moments, bringing us food, a drink, or a quick reminder to breathe and take it all in. It genuinely felt like having a trusted friend looking out for us all day. ❤️

We can’t recommend Jules enough. If you want someone who’s calm under pressure, deeply organized, and genuinely invested in making your day perfect, hire her! She’s the best decision you can make if you want a stress-free wedding. 🥰

Jules and her team were incredible support for our wedding. Once Jules took over in the month leading up to the event, we knew we were in good hands and got to take a big step back as she started coordinating the final details. The wedding itself was beyond smooth thanks to her, Michelle, and the staff we hired through Jules as well. We are so grateful for their help and efforts!

We couldn’t be more grateful for her and everything she did to make our wedding day absolutely perfect. From the moment she stepped in, she was the calming and encouraging presence we knew we wanted. Her upbeat, can-do attitude kept everything running smoothly, and get things done without ever adding stress or frenetic energy to the day. She took care of the big things, has a great mind for details, and also does everything she can to make sure your wedding is the magical day it should be. 

We had a destination wedding in Big Sur, and she helped greatly to keep us organized leading up to the wedding as well as on the day. She was very responsive and happily answered the millions of questions I had. When she could sense stress was in the air, she was so helpful at grounding us and making sure we got to enjoy the beautiful surroundings we chose for our venue. We were told by friends how the day flies by, that you get pulled in many directions, and that it's hard to get a chance to eat -- but Jules made sure we had some special moments for just us on the wedding day, that we got time to eat (and also had an extra plate sent up to our room for after the wedding -- so smart!), and that everything we planned happened on time. She truly went above and beyond to make sure my husband and I had the best day. She was so attentive to every detail, made sure our tables / decor were brought to life how we wanted, helped fix an issue with music, and focused on making sure we could fully enjoy the day without a single worry.

We actually found her through online reviews on wedding websites like this, and I’ll admit I was nervous not having a 1:1 recommendation from a friend. But we feel so lucky we found and chose her to coordinate our wedding. She exceeded every expectation, and we can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for a stellar day-of wedding coordinator.

Thank you, Jules, for being such a positive force on such an important day!

My wife and I recently were married at Roaring Camp, a complicated venue with multiple steam train rides, an outdoor ceremony, and indoor reception -- generally, a lot of moving parts! I can not overstate how incredible Jules was at every step of our day.

Throughout planning, Jules was extremely communicative, informative, and seemingly effortlessly balanced the million tasks necessary to make our day so special. She was easy to schedule meetings with when we needed and deftly removed tasks from our plate when they weren't -- all while keeping us informed enough to give peace of mind without adding unnecessary stress.

Day of, she marshalled the effort to beautifully arrange our venue, wrangle guests, and handle problems; all while ensuring that my Wife and I were having the time of our lives. Small touches were particularly appreciated, including the snack plate already set aside for us and a particularly well-timed refill of wine. The small and big moments made our wedding so incredible; Jules masterfully pulled them together to perfectly realize our vision.

I could not imagine a better choice than Jules. Give her a call. You will not be disappointed.

Jules was amazing to say the least. We are SO glad that we worked with a wedding coordinator. Jules went above and beyond in every moment leading up and during our wedding. She maintained an incredibly calming presence that totally calmed our nerves so we could enjoy the day. Truly excellent service - she even packed up our car at the end of the night with all our wedding stuff and made sure everything was in the right place (no clean-up stress!!). Jules made sure we stayed on time while also being flexible and made sure everyone was comfortable and cared for. Our wedding went smoother than I could have imagined. I would recommend Jules to my closest friends if they needed a coordinator in Santa Cruz. Book with Jules!

Jules was AMAZING. Something about her presence was so stable and calming on my wedding day, and she managed everything perfectly so that my family and I had no stress on the day. She had the perfect balance of calm and professional yet cool and fun, and she also totally delivered my decor vision with little to no direction and even executed my ideas better than I could have imagined- so a huge perk is that you can trust her taste, style and decor! BOOK HER-you will not be disappointed :)

Cannot speak highly enough about our experience with Jules as our wedding coordinator! Each interaction leading up to and on the big day was easy and left us with a sense of confidence and relief in having chosen Jules. She was truly our rock, she handled all the big and small details with ease, was extremely efficient and charismatic, and has a beautiful creative eye for creating exactly what you want when it comes to your venue/decor. We are forever grateful for having Jules play such an important role in our special day. Thank you Jules, you’re a gem!
