as a wedding vendor - Jenny is a life savor, ideal team player, incredible resource

Jenny was a full service planner for a wedding I recently photographed. She was incredibly from start to finish. Her email communication was friendly, quick responses, shared valuable details, and was incredibly thoughtful. Its very evident that she is a true professional and very experienced in her craft. I loved having her in the wedding planning process and wedding day. She allowed me to truly do my job and focus on photographing the day and she managed every detail of everything else. I absolutely adore Jenny and highly recommend her! You won't regret having her bring joy and organization to your day! Jenny is the best!!!

Thank you so much, Kim, for bringing our New Year's Eve Wedding to life!

Kim from JPB Designs was an absolute dream to work with and truly brought our New Year’s Eve wedding to life. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond—answering questions early and even helping with vendor recommendations months before we officially began working together.

When we first met with Kim, all of my stress immediately melted away. She was incredibly organized and thoughtful, paying attention to every last detail. The day-of timeline she created was better than I could have imagined, with built-in flexibility to account for things running behind while still ensuring we had time for all the photos we wanted and that our guests could fully enjoy cocktail hour, dinner, speeches, and dancing.

On the wedding day, cocktail hour ran a little longer than expected, but Kim expertly guided our 300 guests into dinner and kept the evening moving so we could spend the rest of the night on the dance floor—our one big request. I can’t recommend Kim enough and feel so grateful we had her by our side on our wedding day.

The BEST decision you will make for your wedding!

For starters, we absolutely loved working with Moriah (aka the GOAT). Her being there was seriously the best decision we made for our event!

We initially met with Jenny a few months beforehand and realized we didn’t need a full planner and coordinator. As someone with very little understanding of wedding planning, Jenny was incredibly helpful. Our first call lasted well over an hour, and I walked away feeling so much more informed about what actually goes into planning an event. She did an amazing job pairing us with Moriah, who was our day of event coordinator. From the very beginning, Moriah understood exactly what we needed and made us feel prioritized throughout the entire process.

Moriah kept us on track every step of the way. Our meetings weren’t just about logistics, they helped us stay organized and focused on what we needed to do next. Since we were responsible for finding our own vendors, she guided us on what questions to ask and what to look out for. Once vendors were selected, we handed everything over to her, and she took it from there. She made sure vendors stayed organized and most importantly, consistently advocated for us, which we could not appreciate more. She truly embodies what a great planner should be: organized, patient, proactive, and incredibly reassuring.

On the day of the event, she came through for us again and again. When plans shifted, she pivoted quickly and efficiently, making everything feel seamless. One small example, our original photography venue didn’t work out as expected, and she immediately helped us find an alternative so everything stayed on track. We genuinely cannot imagine a better person for this role and are so thankful for everything she did to make our day run smoothly.

I could honestly give a dozen more examples of how helpful and amazing she was, but tldr: if you’re considering JBP (especially Moriah) for your event, take the plunge. You won't regret it!!

We love Jenny and would highly recommend her for any wedding looking for a planner!

Jenny helped us plan our wedding from the start - she was so much help organizing the venue, church, florals, etc. There were so many small things that I never even knew went into planning a wedding that she took care of for us. My husband and I had some lofty ideas and dreams for our Halloween wedding (a thriller flash mob for one) and she made them all a reality! She was extremely thoughtful, responsive, fought on our behalf, organized and creative. Any couple planning to get married would be lucky to have her on their team!

Higly recommended coordinator!

I've worked with Jennifer and JPB designs twice, for each of my daughters' weddings, and couldn't have been happier! Jenny is professional, precise, and highly responsive. While she is a master of the details, she's at the same time just plain personable, and brought just the right amount of humor and calmness to what would have felt like an overwhelming process without her.

Thank you Jenny and team!

Jenny was great to work with and was very helpful with general wedding knowledge and what is common/trendy in the wedding industry today. She was great at connecting us with multiple options for vendors and ensuring that our vision was passed along appropriately. She also helped us navigate a change in contact for the decor company and was overall a huge help for the planning process. The day of coordinators that she works with as part of the JPB team were also amazing and made sure everything ran smoothly the day of. She is also very friendly and made sure that we never felt like we had a dumb question or were imposing despite some limitations in our availability and being from out of town!

JPB Design - Kim Loconsole 100% recommended, she made our special day joyful and really special!

We had the pleasure of having Kim Loconsole as our wedding coordinator, and she was absolutely marvelous. From start to finish, Kim was on top of every detail, ensuring nothing was missed. She kept all the vendors in line and handled all the coordination seamlessly, allowing us to enjoy the process without any stress. Kim was our main point of contact with the vendors, making communication smooth and efficient. She was incredibly kind, subtle, and professional—never causing any noise or tension, just pure grace and organization.

On the wedding day, everything went perfectly, with every little detail in place, all thanks to Kim’s meticulous planning. We didn’t have to worry about a thing and were able to fully enjoy every moment of our special day. Hiring JPB design service was one of the best decisions we made, as it truly made our day perfect. We couldn’t have been happier with Kim’s work and highly recommend her to anyone planning their big day.

Best Chicago Wedding Planner!

As a wedding photographer I get to work alongside a LOT of different wedding planners. They all have their own way of running the show, different timelines and definitely different personalities. Jenny is not only THE most organized person I know, but she makes it all look effortless. She is calm and gentle, and gives her couples a sense assuredness and comfortability. She genuinely loves the work she does and the people she works with, if I walk into a wedding with her as the planner I know I am guaranteed a stress-free (or as close to it as possible) and truly fun day! When things go smoothly and people are happy guess what? The photos are SO MUCH better!! As a wedding vendor reviewing another wedding vendor I can honestly say that I love working with Jenny, she is an incredible professional in our industry and a fabulous human being. Hire her!

An Amazing Experience!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jenny! From the moment we began planning our wedding, she was an invaluable resource as well as a friend. Jenny is not only extremely smart and personable, but her thoughtful guidance made the entire process so much smoother for both of us.

Connecting into her network of vendors was also a game-changer. It allowed us to tap into amazing services that perfectly matched our vision. No matter what aspect of the wedding we were tackling, Jenny always provided great insights and suggestions, which made our decision-making feel effortless.

And most importantly, on the big day, Jenny truly shined! She handled everything with grace and professionalism, allowing us to fully enjoy our celebration without a single worry.

Overall, working with Jenny felt like collaborating with a friend who genuinely cared about making our day perfect. She made our experience unforgettable!

Jenny is AMAZING, the best I've ever seen!

Jenny is a ROCKSTAR! She is very knowledgeable and approachable, knows how to connect with the client, and ensures that the couple feels heard. More importantly, she knows how to guide and navigate sensitive topics, adjust, adapt, and conduct the day of with a steady hand, while celebrating the love of a wedding.

She is extremely respected in the industry, and we could not have done this wedding without her. She became more than a wedding consultant, but a friend!

Thank you, Jenny, for being our north and guiding us to the most beautiful wedding we could hope for!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
