Jessica was absolutely amazing! From helping us through out the planning process, and even making the last few months leading up to the wedding so stress free! She was able to confirm with all of my vendors for me and take on all that stress from my husband and I! The weekend of she was such a rock star! She was able to organize, set up, tear down, fill in and advise where needed (which was everywhere lol). Our wedding was exactly how we envisioned it to the T because of Jessica and her team! Not to mention she’s so nice and chill and so easy to get a long with! I recommend her to all of the brides I know!

If you’re on the fence at all about hiring Jessica Elyse Events, do it now and thank yourself later! Jessica is wonderful to work with and so on top of it. We selected her partial planning package, and her vendor recommendations were phenomenal and saved us probably hundreds of research hours. And anytime we had questions or weren’t sure if something was typical, she responded immediately and provided thoughtful advice. Thanks to her, we put together a phenomenal vendor team that delivered our dream wedding.

Beyond the planning phase, Jessica was instrumental to our wedding day, and we literally could not have done it without her. She thought of everything, so we got to relax and let her direct everyone. Everything ran on track, no detail was missed, and everyone had a great time. The thought and care that Jessica puts into your wedding is obvious at every step—and extends beyond the wedding itself. As an example, my wedding dress had an overskirt that was removable. At the reception, my parents said that they would take the overskirt home but forgot about it. When we realized that it was missing the day after, I called Jessica in a panic since we were leaving the next morning for our honeymoon. She immediately took control, reassured us, and tracked down the overskirt. That was literally so above and beyond, and we were able to stop stressing as soon as we knew she was on it. It’s the perfect example of Jessica’s dedication that she willingly went out of her way to deal with a post-wedding problem caused by someone else. We know our day would not have been so perfect without her and could not recommend her enough!

I was definitely a type A bride that thought I did not need a coordinator. We weren’t too far down the path of wedding planning when I kept thinking about how nice it would be to have someone I trusted on our side with the sole purpose of executing our day. There honestly are not many people I would trust with this task, but Jessica is definitely one of them. While we originally planned to use Jess for day of coordination only, we quickly realized we needed her for partial planning. Jessicia was always recommending ideas and asking us questions that we were not even thinking about. She attended all of our site walks and helped us make decisions which was crucial for me since none of my family members or bridal party live in Pittsburgh. Throughout planning our wedding Jess truly did become a friend to us. I felt comfortable asking her whatever I needed to and knew that she would be there to help in any way she could. As a bride I was obsessed with the details. There were a lot of questions sent to Jess and ideas bounced back and forth. The week of and day of our wedding Jess helped us tremendously. She organized all of our vendors, created the most detailed timeline, and communicated all these details to our vendors directly. When we had a nightmare transportation issue two days before our wedding she was immediately on the phone with the vendor. Jess also has great relationships with other vendors which is key if you want to do things off the beaten path - like adding custom bars in a space of a venue typically reserved for catering. If anything went wrong on our day, we definitely were not aware of it because of Jess. She did a great job at keeping the entire day on schedule. Jess’s help to us did not end after the wedding day. She continued to help return personal items to us the days and weeks after. You don’t realize how many things have to physically move - cookie trays, bouquets you want to preserve, return of the cake stand, leftover food or cookies, etc. Jess was on top of all of these tasks and I’m not sure how we would have handled these items without her. We are so happy we chose Jess to help plan our wedding! Take it from this Type A engineer bride that Jess is your hype woman and the perfect coordinator to execute your vision.
