Serene Occasions: The Best Wedding Planners!

Serene Occasions is fantastic all around! My wedding was in November and we had our initial meeting a little less than a year before. It seemed early but from the start, Jessica and Sean knew exactly what I wanted. They executed my wedding not only perfectly but effortlessly. I remember 6 months before my wedding I started to ask questions and get their opinions on certain things and they knew the answer every time. I wanted something simple, casual and fun and the planning process was SO easy for me— at the time, it felt a bit too easy. Would they remember what flowers I wanted? Do they have the food figured out? Is my wedding day ready? All questions I asked myself because I really did not have to do much! Jessica and Sean truly did it all from planning, picking vendors, showing up for meetings, ceremony details, reception details, etc. I was shocked the day of my wedding. It was BEYOND perfect. Thank you Jessica, Sean and Serene Occasions!!!! The best day ever!!!!!

An Experience of Friendship and Professionalism

Jessica and the team at Serene Occasions exceeded our expectations from our initial call all the way to the final minute of our perfect wedding day. Jessica's expertise for not only the wedding planning industry but also the 30A area was what set her apart initially. Without a doubt in my mind, we booked our wedding date with Serene Occasions and began the planning process!
Throughout every phone call, Jessica and I were able to accomplish our to do list and found ourselves mostly chatting about life or upcoming pre-wedding festivities. I always felt a thousand percent more confident in our progress as the call came to an end.
Jessica is a great advice giver, a confidant during the stressful parts of planning a wedding, and an amazing friend. When we met 6 months prior to the wedding day, Jessica was reassuring that we were on the right path and instilled a “slow down and enjoy it” mindset within Kyle and I.
The details were set and the wedding weekend quickly approached! At our rehearsal, Jessica was extremely well-versed in getting everyone on the same page! Wedding morning, I received updates from Jessica of the venue as vendors set up and she continued to let us enjoy our day. If something did not go perfectly on our special day, I have no idea about it - even to this day! Professionalism and friendship are the foundation of Serene Occasions. Jessica has an impeccable day-of timeline, preferred vendor list, and amazing online capabilities to help bring your vision to life. She also works extremely well with all vendors, we even brought some vendors in from out of town! Our experience with Serene Occasions was the most exceptional. I cannot say enough good things about Jessica. Sending a huge thank you to Jessica and her team for making our day nothing short of perfection.

Jessica and Serene Occaisions should be your first hire!

Jessica works our heart out. Before I even hired her, she spent two long phone calls with me explaining procedure and options and everything that she does.
She is always lovely to talk with an is the consummate professional. Her vendor list is spot on and proved to be vendors with an elevated level of performance. Honestly, her vendor list alone is a reason to hire her. The relationships that she maintains with these other professionals speaks volumes of what a hard worker and sharp individual she is. She handles every single aspect of the wedding day. And her husband is present as well as an assistant. So you are getting people in every corner to make sure that your day is flawless. Her day-of timeline is impeccable. Simply cannot say enough good things about Jessica and her team. If you are doing a wedding in Carillon or anywhere in 30A, do yourself a favor and book Jessica before anything else!
