So helpful!

We had a great experience with Jenelle as our planner! Our venue did not provide much of anything and therefore we had to find vendors and bring decor/rentals in ourselves. Jenelle worked with us throughout the year leading up to our big day and kept us on track. She helped recommend local vendors and kept us calm throughout the process. An affordable planner that is worth it! We highly recommend Jenelle :)

We had an excellent experience with Merry Up Events. Jenelle was invaluable.

My daughter and her fiancé brought Jenelle into the planning process just a few weeks before the ceremony. She made a huge and positive difference in how the wedding day went. We could not have been happier with her.

I couldn't have better things to say about working with Jenelle

.Throughout the planning process, Jenelle was attentive, organized and resourceful. Jenelle helped to alleviate any additional stress leading up to the wedding by providing helpful tips and resources that kept me and my husband on track for our big day. She took the reins on our rehearsal day and made sure all of our attendants knew exactly what they were doing. On our wedding day, I knew I had absolutely nothing to stress about because Jenelle was on it. Every little detail, every step of the way. I couldn't have asked for a better planner, and am so grateful that we picked Jenelle to help us throughout our wedding planning. I would recommend Jenelle and her team to absolutely anyone!
