JJL Weddings & Events

Jo was the best from the beginning! She was thoughtful and put a ton of time into bringing my vision to life. She adapted well to all the new things that were added to her plate and pulled it all off without a hitch! 10/10 recommend!

I’m not a big talker/ everything was excellent- was great not to have to worry about any of the details

Jo was amazing from the planning process all the way through the day of. She was knowledgeable, organized, and always kind. Our day was so special because of her and we couldn't have done it without her! Highly recommend!

Working with Jovanna Laurencin was nothing short of extraordinary. Planning a wedding from afar can be daunting, but she made the entire process seamless, enjoyable, and stress-free. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for us as a couple were evident from the start.

She went above and beyond to understand our vision and turned it into a reality that far exceeded our expectations. Every aspect of the wedding—from the breathtaking venue to the perfectly coordinated timeline—was handled with expertise and grace. She maintained open communication, providing updates and reassurance every step of the way, which was invaluable given the distance.

On the day of the wedding, everything was flawless. Guests raved about how beautiful and organized the event was, and we were able to truly enjoy every moment knowing she had everything under control. Her ability to anticipate our needs and make thoughtful adjustments in real-time was remarkable.

We couldn’t have asked for a better partner in planning the most important day of our lives. Jovanna is not just a wedding planner—she’s a dream maker, and we are forever grateful for her dedication and passion. If you’re looking for someone who will go the extra mile (literally and figuratively), she’s the one to trust with your special day. Thank you for giving us the perfect wedding!

Jovanna did such a wonderful job making our special day special. She was always very attentive to our needs throughout the entire process. From the initial outreach, she was always responsive to our needs and adaptive to address any concerns we had. She went the extra mile to ensure the marriage license was handled at the courts, adjusted the package to fit our needs, and had everything arranged, so we simple had to show up. Literally, she had a taxi waiting for us when our cruise docked, had the tickets for the ferry, and another taxi to bring us right up to the beach where the ceremony was conducted. She even worked with the beach to ensure we had a couple towels so we can jump in the ocean after the ceremony. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to marry on St. John.

Jovanna and her team at JJL Events are phenomenal, personable, and extremely professional. Jovanna made the months leading up to our wedding day very easy. She set us up on aisleplanner.com, recommended vendors, and talked through all the logistics over calls and emails. As a local to the island, she made planning our destination wedding on St. John a breeze. The day of the wedding went even smoother than we could have imagined. It was a dream and we'll relive that day forever. Thank you for everything Jovanna!

We entrusted Jovanna and her team with our wedding and she did a terrific job. Our larger destination wedding was a truly perfect and magical experience. Every challenge was met with a great solution and Jovanna’s deep roots and network on the island helped to create a reliable and excellent experience. If you’re planning a wedding or event we would highly recommend working with JJL.

Jovanna was the sweetest and most efficient person. She really understood exactly what it is that we wanted (simple beach vow renewal) and exceeded our expectations! When we arrived at the beach, everything was beautifully set up, the lighting was perfect, and the food was amazing. We had a vegan meal and she had no issues putting it all together for us. Honestly I cannot recommend her enough!! She worked with my budget and made it all come to life.. so grateful to have found her!

First off, Jovanna is a kind and helpful person at heart. As soon as I told her the vision for my wedding, she ran with it and the results was beyond what I could have dreamed of. She handled everything ; from the décor to my bouquets, the program for the reception and anything else that could have eased my mind at the time. She was a "God Send"!. Her work is absolutely flawless and she is very professional as well! She communicated with me throughout the planning stages to get my feedback and she was always receptive to my ideas. Book her now! She won't disappoint!

JJL Wedding and Events is amazing and has the ability to bring your vision to light. We are still talking about our wedding two years later and have memories that will stay with us for life. Thank you, JJL Weddings!
