A Dream Team!

First, there is a true and very present reason why Jenna Culley Events has a 98% 5-star rating: they genuinely care about you and your event. JCE puts you first—always—and if something isn’t right, they will make it exactly the way you want it. They are with you every step of the way, through thick and thin.

My team of planners started with me when I had almost no concrete ideas and stayed with me all the way to the last song…and even getting wine out of my wedding dress. They are a full-service team who quickly begin to feel like family. Communication is quick, kind, and incredibly helpful. You can tell that the entire JCE team wants everything to be exactly as it should be.

During wedding week, my planner, Sara, and I were completely ready to rock and roll, and on the day-of she had every single detail handled. My only job was to be the bride, and Sara and her team took care of everything in sight—right down to having a drink ready for me the moment I walked in. They checked in not only on me, but also on my husband, my bridal party, my family, and even our other vendors. They truly are a super-team, and they made the day absolutely wonderful. I honestly wanted to take them all home with me!

There are not enough words to describe how phenomenal the JCE team is. If you are looking for a wedding planner who will make your day stress-free, fun, seamless, and filled with support—as well as someone who becomes your personal cheerleader—this is the team you’re looking for. You will not regret it.

JCE is the best!!

Jenna Culley Events were a joy to work with, they made the planning process SO easy and fun for us (special thank you to Heidi and Paige!). There are things that we would never have thought could be within our budget that they helped us make happen (like a harpist for our ceremony, such a dream!).

The vendors they found for us - hair, makeup, photography, florals, cake - were incredible, professional and kind. JCE taking care of the logistics and timing with the vendors was HUGE for us and allowed us and our families to not worry about a single thing on the big day. Paige, Sandra and Erin made sure everything flowed smoothly. There is absolutely nothing about our day that we would change or have done differently, it was perfect and so ‘us’, and that is definitely thanks to Jenna Culley Events.

Best decision to hire JCE!!!

Jenna and her team went above and beyond our expectations, not only on our wedding day but throughout the entire planning process. We were fortunate to work with many of the staff, including Heidi, Erin, Breeyen, and of course, Jenna. I truly cannot recommend Jenna Culley Events enough!

Jenna surrounds herself with the most talented people and the best vendors in Minneapolis, and every single one of her suggestions exceeded our expectations. The team’s dedication, creativity, and attention to detail brought our dream to life in a way we could never have imagined.

As out-of-towners, my husband and I never felt stressed during the planning process because Jenna and her team had everything under control. With a guest count of over 350, it was so important to stay organized and on top of all the moving pieces and the JCE team ensured we stayed on track every step of the way. They were always available to talk through the process and find solutions that worked best for us.

I still look at our photos daily, in awe of how they took my Pinterest boards and transformed them into something even better than I imagined. Thank you, Jenna and team, for creating the wedding day of our dreams, an experience we will cherish forever!

The BEST wedding I could have ever dreamed of

We hired Heidi at Jenna Culley Events for our October 2024 wedding. This review is a little delayed because I am still in disbelief and awe at the event they helped to create for us. I was never someone who had a "vision" of what I wanted and even had a hard time articulating my desires for the event. Somehow, Heidi was able to understand what I was trying to depict to create the most beautiful event possible. It was genuinely more beautiful than I could have imagined. During the day of the event and for months after, our guests have given very high reviews of our event and were so amazed by the work of JCE on that day. If I had known my wedding could be as stunning as what it was, I would've been dreaming about it from day one. The process was so fun and EASY! Heidi absolutely saved our life in the process and helped manage even last-minute issues, so that my wedding week was relaxing! I couldn't have been more calm during the planning process and I owe that all to Heidi and the JCE team. My husband and I are out-of-state and never had to worry about a single thing. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend JCE to everyone I know and I wish I had another event in the works just to get the opportunity to work with them again. Thank you guys so much!

Our July Wedding

We had the pleasure of working with Jenna Culley Events, and specifically Liz, for our wedding day, and we couldn't be happier with our experience! Liz went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was perfect, making our day truly special. From the initial planning stages to the final moments of our celebration, her dedication and expertise shone through.

She was incredibly organized, attentive, and proactive, handling everything with ease and grace. Liz’s creative ideas and calming presence helped us feel relaxed and confident throughout the day. We received countless compliments from our guests about how seamlessly everything came together.

If you're looking for a wedding planner who genuinely cares and delivers exceptional service, we highly recommend Jenna Culley Events and Liz. Thank you for making our wedding day unforgettable!

Flawless Start to Finish

I work with a lot of vendors and suppliers in my day job, so I know exceptional customer service when I see it. Jenna and her team were FLAWLESS start to finish and made the process of planning a wedding fun! Our wedding was very complicated and unique - Jenna's team really listened and got to know us as people. We felt like their only client. Their stellar reputation also assures you get the best of the best treatment from everyone they work with. Just go with Jenna Culley, you'll thank me.

The best of the best!

Heidi and the JCE team are the absolute best, would choose them again and again! They were extremely professional, on top of everything, Heidi picked up and took on tasks before we could even think to do them, and the full staff the day of made sure every detail was perfect down to making sure we got to try the appetizers and dessert. If you are thinking about going with a wedding planner it's JCE or bust!

The best decision we made!

Hiring Jenna Culley Events was the best decision we made. Working with Heidi allowed for us to plan a successful and memorable wedding weekend in St. Paul from Atlanta in just under 9 months. Heidi’s “only handle it once” approach to organization and planning is very much in alignment with how we operate. We never felt like an agenda was being pushed; instead, she was completely receptive to digging in and executing OUR vision. From assisting us in handling vendor communications (I think we had 20+ overall), to making sure our day-of went smoothly, we were fully covered. Because of her decades of industry knowledge, not only did we have a gorgeous wedding, we also enjoyed the planning process. We cannot thank you enough, Heidi!

Best Experience, Favorite People!

Heidi, Jenna, and the whole team are an absolute dream! Working with JCE was the best choice my now-husband and I ever made. Heidi was such a joy to work with. Every detail was thought of and taken care of before we even had a chance to stress. Wedding planning was, dare I say, easy. And that is 110% thanks to Heidi and JCE. Our wedding day went so smoothly, and we were so confident that everything would go well even if a problem did come up, because the day-of-coordination was so well thought out. Looking back on our past year, there is nothing more we could have asked to be done by JCE. It really feels like Heidi and JCE really did everything for us. We would make the decision to work with them again a million times if given the chance!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
