There are no words to truly express how amazing my wedding turned out because of Jana. It was absolutely AMAZING! Every dream I had came true plus some. It was picture perfect. It was also like having a best friend along for the ride. She was so attentive and kind through the entire process.

I didn’t think I needed a planner when I got married. I was so wrong. And anyone other than Jana I would have been selling myself short! She thought of the smallest details that ended up being my favorite parts of our wedding day. There wasn’t a person there that wasn’t in complete amazement when they walked in. She turned an outside pool and made it something out of dreams.

Honestly she’s just AMAZING and an actual hero in the wedding planning game!

I live in Boston and Jana made planning my SWFL wedding a smooth and lovely experience! She is creative, helpful, and organzied and my wedding turned out to be more stunning than I ever could imagine. We love Jana and the whole Wedding Hero team!!

Her name says it all! Jana the Wedding Hero was absolutely the hero of my November 2022 destination wedding.

I could tell on our very first phone call that Jana is as professional as it gets! She means business, takes her work seriously and gets shit DONE but also has fun along the way. Jana helped us secure a date at my dream venue - South Seas Island Resort on Captiva Island. I had dreamed of a wedding at South Seas ever since I vacationed there with my family many years ago. My wedding vision was centered around this venue and island, and we spent most of 2022 planning together.

Less than two months before my wedding date, Hurricane Ian came barreling toward Southwest Florida. Captiva was evacuated and the causeway, (the one road onto the island) was completely destroyed, so we had to wait patiently until staff could reach the grounds to assess. It caused historic damage. Jana was incredibly composed, realistic, and professional through this entire tragedy - even though her own neighborhood suffered greatly from the storm as well!

At first I could not even begin to fathom having my wedding anywhere else, Captiva was my dream! Changing our date seemed near impossible - everything was planned, travel was booked, and we had no idea when South Seas could reopen. I was very hesitant, but after a week or so, I gave Jana the go ahead to seek out other venues available on our date. Since much of SWFL was harmed by the hurricane, this was no easy task… especially with the standards that South Seas had set. I was devastated and needed a FABULOUS venue with a similar tropical vibe to get me excited about my wedding again.

Jana sprung into action and miraculously found a stunning resort down in Islamorada (Florida Keys) that was available. The Islander resort is as tropical and beautiful as it gets! Six weeks before my wedding date, I gave Jana the green light and she got to work. She had to do quite a bit of coordinating with our previously secured vendors, who were willing to travel down to Islamorada. We worked together to somewhat redesign the ceremony and reception. Figuring out the room block and accommodations for 130 guests was a challenge so last minute. There was an enormous amount of work to be done in just six weeks - but Jana did it!

By the time wedding week came around, I had pretty much gotten all the stress out of my system. I was just thrilled that it was all finally happening! I was able to enjoy my wedding week so much more because I knew Jana had everything under control. After all we went through, I could not have been more happy with the outcome. It was truly the best day of our entire lives, and we wouldn’t have changed a thing looking back. The entire time we were there, we kept saying “this feels like Plan A”

Jana and her AMAZING team brought my design vision to life and made it better than I could have ever dreamed. Her staff is incredible - so on the ball and professional. I was able to be so present and enjoy every minute of my big day because I knew everything was handled. My wedding was everything I could’ve wished for and MORE, and if you want the same for your day, I recommend working with Wedding Hero. Jana will not only save the day, but take your wedding beyond your wildest dreams.

A Hero can mean many different things to people. Someone who saves the day. Someone who is courageous. Someone who has great strength and ability. Someone who is known for their achievements and noble qualities. To me, Jana is all the above ... and then some!! We are from Cleveland, OH and found Jana through researching BEST wedding planners in Fort Myers/Naples, FL. There was something about Jana when we first spoke that really resonated with us. We felt a connection and we were confident that our wedding would be in good hands. Our daughter's wedding was going to be on Captiva Island, Thanksgiving weekend, 11/26/22. Little did we know that Mother Nature had other plans in mind for Captiva Island. On September 23, 2022, just 2 months before our wedding week, Hurricane Ian destroyed Sanibel & Captiva Island, specifically our daughter's dream wedding venue, South Seas Resort. After 2 weeks of many tears, much frustration, and the unknown of whether there would be a wedding, Jana sprung in to action and found a little resort in the Florida Keys that miraculously was available and had enough rooms for our 125 guests. With little more than 6 weeks to flip our wedding, Jana, The Wedding Hero, picked us up (mentally) and was able to mobilize our vendors who were all on board with the shift to the Florida Keys. With so many new challenges and so little time, Jana was able to help us pull off the wedding of our daughter's dreams. Nothing can replace beautiful Captiva Island, but we fell in love with The Islander Resort, Islamorda, FL, and Jana, together with her amazing staff and dream team of vendors, pulled off the BEST wedding we could have possibly imagined. If you are on the fence about hiring a wedding planner, just remember that you NEVER know when you will need a HERO to save the day!

Jana and her team are top notch! Extremely professional
easy to work with and go out of their way to give you the wedding of your dreams. Jana and her assistant Sapphire both have a eye for detail and creative design ideas.

As the MOB I highly recommend Wedding Hero. I was allowed to enjoy my daughters wedding as much if not even more than the bride herself. It was pure delight to watch may daughter enjoy her special day knowing that all was being tended to by Wedding Hero.

Our 3 day weekend event from rehearsal dinner, day of wedding, to the breakfast the day after was perfect. Wedding Hero is the top notch wedding consultant you want for your special day!

Wedding Hero provides a fantastic service, Jana and her team are incredible! Jana went above and beyond to make my wedding weekend perfect and unique. Jana brought so many ideas to the table, her creativity is limitless. Throughout the planning process, Jana checked in with us, answering any questions or concerns we had regularly. Wedding Hero kept the wedding day running smoothly and stress-free, everything was organized and Jana was prepared for anything. I am so thankful that we found Wedding Hero. Anyone looking for a wedding coordinator, look no further!

Call them, you won’t regret it

I'm not sure where to even begin with Jana and the Wedding Hero team but they (hands down) made our wedding experience the most amazing, seamless, beautiful day of our lives! From the first phone call my mom and I had with Jana, we could tell she was incredibly professional, detail-oriented and educated on all things wedding. Meeting her in person was even more wonderful because she's so insightful and SO fun. She made making decisions easy due to her great relationships with all vendors in Florida. As someone who lives in Chicago, without much insight into the right photographer, music, hair, flowers, she put me in touch with the right people to make my vision come to life. She was always super thorough and understood what my vision was and brought it to life beautifully. I truly did not have to worry about anything because I knew she would have my back if needed. Her energy was so soothing yet energized leading up to the day and that eased my mind as the day approached.
The day of, NO WORDS. Jana had everything handled. South Seas Resort is not an easy place to get around, given the size and the different spaces we were using but she executed everything flawlessly and it's amazing to see how much the vendors TRULY enjoyed working with the Wedding Hero team as well. Our guests were left speechless yet raving about every detail of our wedding and I almost felt like a fraud saying thank you because there was a real hero behind it all! A fariy god mother if you will :) I'm not sure how I'll ever be able to thank Jana enough for creating the most special, beautiful day of our lives, one that felt like us. THANK YOU JANA!! Can't wait to team up for other big-life events!! xoxo Courtney + TC

If you’re in search of a wedding planner for your special day you’re in luck – you needn’t search any further because you have just found her! Jana is simply the best.

When we were looking for a wedding planner for our daughter’s wedding (the 2nd daughter’s wedding that we were putting on in 14 weeks) we knew exactly what we wanted for this 2nd wedding – a beautiful, fun and stress-free day. Admittedly, we were on wedding overload and needed a “wedding hero” to take over and execute our vision. And there is no question that Jana made that happen.

There aren’t adequate words to describe the feeling of relief knowing that Jana was in charge. In one sense she becomes part of the family as you work closely together on every detail. And I mean every detail - including the little things you’d never think of which make the day extra-special. Jana has the experience, the personality and the professionalism it takes to implement your wedding vision.

One significant observation noted almost immediately is that Jana is highly respected by those in the wedding industry. When we informed our vendors that we had hired Jana as our wedding planner, a resounding positive response was received from each of them stating “you are in great hands.” This in turn has your vendors bringing their “A” game which in our opinion is priceless.

We could go on and on as to all the reasons to hire Jana as your wedding planner. But, if you want to enjoy every second of your wedding spending it with each other, family and friends, rather than stressing over details, than you have found that planner!

Jana nailed it when she named her business “Wedding Hero” because that is exactly what she is – a true wedding hero! Jana is a top-notch planner and I am incredibly lucky to have had her help. Throughout the entire planning process, Jana was attentive, organized, and resourceful. Jana helped to alleviate any additional stress leading up to the wedding by providing helpful tips and resources that kept my husband and me on track for our big day. On our wedding day, I knew I had absolutely nothing to stress about because Jana and her team were on it. Every little detail, every step of the way! Words cannot express my gratitude for Jana and her team! If you’re thinking of hiring a wedding planner, hire Wedding Hero. I can assure you that you will not be disappointed!
