100/10 recommend hiring JJE for planning&coordinating services!

JJE planning helped save my wedding!!!! Danielle was my lead planner/coordinator. The package we chose included tons of incredible planning resources and multiple meetings to help me get started on my wedding. At the three months out mark, I finally felt like I could breathe because I knew Danielle would come in and help me handle all the background details and vendor meetings. Beyond that, when my venue cancelled a week and a half before my wedding, she was so wonderful and quick to handle the refund process with our original venue AND have multiple back up options with quotes and details as soon as she told me we had to change venues. If not for her and her team, I would’ve panicked and I’m not sure the wedding would’ve even happened on the original date. On the day of, she was professional and fun and such a great friend to have throughout the day! We also had a Catholic wedding Mass, which she coordinated beautifully! Danielle truly saved my wedding and handled everything perfectly. I was hesitant to hire a planner and didn’t think I really needed one, but I couldn’t be more grateful for Joyful Journey Engagements!!!

A joyful journey it truly was!

From our initial consultation, we were instantly drawn in by Danielle's kind and genuine demeanor.
Selecting JJE as our planning partner was then the easiest and most obvious decision. Danielle has high attention to detail, thorough organization, extensive resources, and, most importantly, a love for what she does. This gave us confidence and peace that the outcome would be beautifully successful.
On our wedding day, JJE executed our plans wonderfully, and we received countless compliments from our guests about Danielle and her team. Throughout this process, we didn't just have the most outstanding wedding planner but a friend. Thank you, Danielle and Joyful Journey Engagements, for making our wedding dreams come true!

If you’re on the fence, this is your sign!!

Danielle has been such a wonderful resource for my now-husband and I while planning our wedding in 4 months! Her communication is on point and things get done in a very timely fashion. She really cares about you and your future spouse, and goes above and beyond in every thing! She even gave us a sweet little care package the meeting before our wedding, which I thought was a super sweet touch. I really felt like her and I were longtime friends, she was just so down to earth and kind and EXCITED for us!! 11/10 recommend Joyful Journey Engagements, thank you Danielle and team!!

100% reccomend!

NCREDIBLE!! Danielle and her JJE team are phenomenal. Investing in Danielle was our best move. Danielle exceeded our expectations, going above and beyond. She thinks of every detail possible and makes a plan/finds a solution. She has amazing people skills- coordinating, communicating, and interacting with guests and vendors. Her communication is exemplary- she is friendly yet very professional and keeps you up to speed and on track. Her organization is exceptional- there are so many moving parts and she keeps track of them all and easily accessible. Danielle treats your wedding as she would her own by putting in the time, care, love, and effort. She made me feel as if I was her one and only bride. Danielle made the biggest day of our lives the most remarkable one. I 100% recommend her to every couple and hope every couple has the opportunity to work with her so their dream wedding can come true.

Loved Joyful Journey Engagement

I loved working with JJE! We started working together 6 months before the big day and it made it so much easy to stay on track with our planning. The wedding day went by so smooth, I did not worry about anything! I felt like Danielle really thought about all the little details I couldn't remember. She took care of the logistics of the big day so I would enjoy my time with family and guests. I definitely recommending hiring a coordinator for the big day and Danielle was very considerate of all our needs and she understood and embraced the celebration of our culture and love.

A Dream Wedding Brought to Life – Thanks to Daniele!!

Our wedding day was nothing short of magical, and it's all thanks to our phenomenal wedding planner Daniele. From start to finish, she orchestrated every detail with precision and passion, turning our vision into an extraordinary reality.

Danielle will literally become that friend who is always there to help just to make your wonderful day more enjoyable

Danielle is great! She took my wedding day so personally and helped me from planning my bachelorette party to say "I do". her bilingual skills helped me and my family a lot since my wedding was a mix of spanish speakers and english speakers. When Danielle is planning your wedding she doesnt become just your wedding planner but she becomes that friend who is always there to help you in those little stressful moments and make them way easier on you! Just an example on how my ceremony was supposed to be outside and everything was going great (including weather predictions) and out of nowhere it started raining, Danielle made everything run smoothly as possible and became an amazing indoor ceremony!
100% recommended, I say I will hire her again but I want to say "Yes, I do" just once haha!!

Above and beyond

I reached out to Daniellefor a last minute day of coordinator. She was not available at short notice. She was kind and professional during our email exchange. A few days pasted and she emailed me to let me know she found another coordinator that could possibly help.
I have a day of coordinator for my son's wedding because she went above and beyond to help!! Amazing! I only regret we could not book her!!

Creative and attentive to every detail. Went above and beyond what I needed and expected.

Amazing experience. We “eloped in the mountains” and every details was planned for us since we live two hours away. It was EXACTLY what we hoped and dreamed. Everything from venue selection and decorations, ordering and decorating the cake, champaign toast prep and the formal dinner meal selection. Truly was a Joyful Journey toward our special celebration of marriage. Best in Service!
