Where do I even begin?!

Jess has this incredible ability to listen to your ideas, no matter how big or small, and transform them into something exactly like you were wanting and more. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing Jess in action planning and putting together birthday parties, weddings, showers, and more! She is extremely organized and truly makes you feel at ease during your special day, no matter the occasion. Her taste is also *chefs kiss* so if you’re having trouble figuring out a theme, she’s your girl. I would recommend her to anyone in a heart beat!

Best decision we could've made!

Hiring Jess to work her magic for my husband and I's wedding celebration earlier this month was hands down the BEST decision we could've made. Having known Jess for nearly a decade, when I saw she started 'Say Yes to the Jess' right around the time I got engaged, I knew having her be part of it was the natural choice. She's SO good at what she does, the most organized, calming presence, which is all one could hope for planning something so high stakes. Her attention to detail is unmatched, she helped me prioritize and navigate the whole process from the early planning to the weekend of WITHOUT stress. Being able to focus on enjoying the party knowing Jess had it all under control (while looking fab might I add) was the best feeling, I would do it all again if I could! 10/10 experience.

Best day ever🥂💕

Jess was amazing! She helped us find the best vendors, brought our vision to life with every little detail, and kept the day running smoothly so we could just soak it all in. She even went the extra mile to make sure our dog, Lucie, got to be part of our special day, which meant so much to us! Thanks to her, everything flowed perfectly, and we never had to stress about a single thing on our special day. She truly made the entire day so enjoyable, and we’re so grateful for her help in creating the VIBIEST wedding of our dreams! 🥂💕

Say Yes to the Jess - Seriously do it!!!!

I cannot say enough good things about Say Yes to the Jess! I tell anyone who will listen (especially anyone I know getting engaged) that the absolute most important vendor I hired for my wedding was Jess! I hired her as our full service planner & She was absolutely amazing to work with - she always kept me on track, had the best vendor suggestions, worked SO hard to help stay within our budget by using all of her resources to find us the best vendors and was so much fun to work with! She also did the floral arrangements for our wedding & bouquets which turned out incredible. We got so many compliments on our florals! She was there on our wedding day setting up, doing all of the decor & making sure everything ran smoothly and it was PERFECT. We had an issue early on with a vendor cancelling a few months out from the wedding, Jess was able to find us a new vendor same day who turned out to be even better than the original! She was able to fix something that would have been so stressful without her within a single afternoon! Seriously, I highly, highly recommend using Say Yes to the Jess as your wedding planner, she is the best!

More than just a planner...

I have used Jess for a number of events and she has gone above and beyond every time. She's made the vision I didn't even know I had, come to life before my eyes.
She's professional, thorough, and reassuring.
Trusting your planner is such an important thing so that you can fully let go of control and enjoy your day and I am so grateful that I can trust Jess.
I can't wait to hire her for more events.

Jess was the perfect pick for our bridal shower event!

She laid out ideas and pricing from the beginning, had Zoom calls to work out details, and was always in communication through the whole process. She understood the vision expressed and ran with it, succeeding in going beyond every expectation I had. My life has been very busy lately. It was an amazing relief knowing that every aspect was taken care of, and I could just advise with yes or no. I was able to show up to the event as if I were a guest! They handled set up and take down, food, alcohol, decor, unique party favors, party games, game prizes, invites, signs, and more I probably can't think of. The bride had a dream bridal shower she'll remember forever!

The only call you need to make is to Jess!

I cannot recommend Jess enough. We recently hired her for a bridal shower and she surpassed every expectation. The bridal party expressed to her the vision we had and she took it from there. Her passion for her work, coupled with her meticulous attention to detail, resulted in a bridal shower that was nothing short of perfection. If you're looking for someone to bring your vision to life and create memories that will last a lifetime, look no further.

From the setup to the final breakdown, she handled every detail and ensured that everything ran seamlessly. It is evident that she loves what she does and pours her heart and soul into even the smallest details. What truly set this bridal shower apart was the coordinator's attention to the little things. From the charming floral arrangements to the delicious spread and even the thoughtfully planned games, every detail was considered and flawlessly executed. It was evident that she had gone above and beyond to ensure that the bride-to-be and her guests had an unforgettable experience.

Thank you for making this special day truly magical!

It’s a YES for Jess!

1000/10 would recommend for any and everything! I knew she was the real deal after our first phone consultation, but then she followed up immediately with a bullet-point email about everything we spoke about on the phone, I was sold! In our time working together Jess helped me book a DJ & Photobooth, facilitated a floral appointment, brought together my theme and color choice, and basically eliminated my stress in 4 business days. From what I have gathered ‘Say Yes to the Jess’ is completely customizable and she will curate her services to meet your needs. So worth it! Jess is extremely detail-oriented and doesn’t mess around when it comes to getting stuff done and that proved to be true over the last couple of months and even more so on my actual wedding day. Jess assembled all of our table decor, had a vision and a place for our audio guestbook & cupcake displays, all while checking in on me and my *anxiety* and making sure my husband and the guys were all keeping up with the timeline. Not only did my wedding day go off without a hitch (even though those hitches were there & could have easily thrown a wrench in my day) Jess was so incredibly proactive to make sure my husband and I were as unaware as possible of any and all drama on the most special day of our lives! We are so incredibly thankful for a new friend but even more that we put our trust in the BEST IN THE BIZ on our wedding day! If yall don’t Say Yes To The Jess, you are truly missing out!!!

AMAZING experience!

It's easy to say yes to the Jess, because she is incredible! I don't know many people who combine her vision and style with the ability to organize and execute, but she nails it. We were so happy not only with the finished product, but also the process. Jess takes such complete ownership of every detail of the planning stage that we were confident she was handling everything, and we were able to relax and have bandwidth for other things.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
