Best NJ Shore Planner around!

My husband and I have nothing but incredible things to say about Jen, mostly because our day probably wouldn't have happened without her! From the start Jen was the most organized and communicative "vendor" we worked with (more like a friend then a wedding vendor). Joe and I worked with Jen for ~2 years before our wedding since we had such a long engagement and Jen stayed close via email/call/text the entire time while planning. She was extremely helpful in terms of getting in touch with vendors, figuring our scheduling and beyond helpful in terms of suggesting things I hadn't even thought of. I would obviously recommend Jen 10/10 times. Our actual wedding day went SO smooth all because of her. We truly don't know what we would have done without her.

The Best!!!!

Jen and Shore to Please Wedding Planning is the best. Jen went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was perfect. We had to bring all the vendors in ourselves and the months leading up to the wedding Jen was contacting/organizing vendor contracts and drop off times with the venue. She was our point of communication and she was always so available. She made the wedding planning process fun and worry-free! She also made sure the wedding day ran seamless and perfectly. Jen was even at the venue the night before AND day of helping to setup and organize. I seriously CANNOT recommend Jen enough. Thank you so much Jen for everything and for making our wedding absolutely perfect!!!!!

Shore To Please - The Best Wedding Planner Services and Team!

Jen is amazing to work with! She is so professional, kind, supportive, honest and has so much experience in working with various vendors, venues, guests, and clients. She assisted me on the day of my wedding (as well as leading up to the special day)! I trusted Jen completely with streamlining communication, decor set up (as I brought a lot of decor in myself) as well as working with all the vendors on site to make sure the entire day / night went smoothly. Jen is truly so special to work with and her professionalism is top notch. She also had an assistant, Kelly who helped the day of and can't thank them enough for making my vision come to life. From ideation to execution to post wedding; the STP team is the best and Jen is one of the best planner's I have had the pleasure to work with! We had a blast and the day wouldn't have been as special without her!

Jen made our lives so much easier

Jen was an absolute pleasure to work with, and we can't thank her enough for going above and beyond to make our special day as smooth and worry-free as could be. Leading up to the wedding, Jen was super helpful in recommending vendors that we ended up working with, and were very happy with. She kept us really organized, on track with all of our payments, and had all our vendors set with her run of show that was so flawlessly executed. We even had a horrible rain storm start at the time of our wedding, and Jen was able to wrangle everyone up to move our ceremony inside, and it was perfect.

She was a perfect liaison between us and our vendors, and even even our parents and our vendors. You know you had a great planner when we received compliments from every one of our vendors that Jen was so great to work with.

I have to mention Jen's day-of help Lisa as well - Lisa took total charge of everything on-site the day of before Jen arrived, and the groom and party were comfortably setup for a relaxing afternoon, even though the venue had some hiccups for where we'd be getting ready.

We can not recommend Jen enough - she took so much off of our plate and made our lives so much easier leading up to the wedding and on the day of. Thanks so much, Jen (and Lisa!)

Best decision ever!

Jen was amazing!!!!! I didn't think I would really need the extra help, but decided to hire Jen anyway to have a point of contact the day of. Well I'm so glad I did!! I felt so much better during all of my phone calls with vendors because she knew all the questions to ask that I never would have.
On the day of, she was everywhere - helping set up the reception space, helping with getting ready, helping the groomsmen, contacting the vendors, you name it. Every little thing was covered by her the entire night, but guests didn't even notice she was there.
It was one of the best decisions we made for our big day and so happy she was a part of it!

The best. The best. The best

I wish I could leave 100000 stars. Jen is absolutely incredible and we could not have pulled off our wedding without her!! When we first booked our very DIY venue at Bayonet Farm in Holmdel NJ, the first thing we did was look for a month of coordinator and we are SOOO happy we chose Jen and Shore to Please Wedding Planning. She is so knowledgeable, organized, supportive and knew exactly what needed to be done and when! We had Jen come on even earlier than originally anticipated and she jumped right in, taking over contact with all of our vendors to make sure everything was in a good place. The venue coordinator was increasingly difficult to deal with but Jen never let that get to her and handled it all with such grace. She guided us through so many obstacles and really truly helped our vision come to life on the day of the wedding. Being there the day before to help set up and coordinate, to keeping everything moving and organized the day of. Kelly was there the day of as well and was such a huge help with making sure the bridal party was ready/on time and keeping things moving for the ceremony and beyond. We cannot recommend Shore To Please enough! Jen is the sweetest, kindest and most professional of planners. Our caterer even made a point to let us know that Jen was one of the best planners they've ever worked with and that they hope to work with her again soon. Our wedding was really huge undertaking and we cannot thank Jen & Kelly enough for everything.

Best day ever! Thank you!

Where to begin! Jen made our day an absolute dream! I could not have imagined a more perfect day! Jen and Kelly went above and beyond to have the day moving along and making sure that we were happy! They guided us through many Covid obstacles and made our wedding everything that we could have ever wanted. They took so much stress off of us and allowed us to enjoy every aspect of wedding planning and the wedding day! I can’t thank you girls enough! Can’t wait to see you again for my sisters wedding in October!

Shore To Please Weddings helped make this a dream wedding

Shore To Please Wedding Planning, led by Jen and Kelly, made my daughter's wedding a dream come true for her and her husband, despite delays and challenges caused by the pandemic. I cannot imagine what we would have done without their knowledge and support throughout the planning process as well as on the wedding day. They were, without a doubt, the best and most crucial vendor and the reason why my daughter and son-in-law's wedding reflected their personalities and was flawless.

Their strengths are numerous - deep knowledge of the industry, connection with multiple vendors in every field, strong ability to quickly change direction when needed, empathetic and patient, unruffled by anything, including having to plan the wedding 3 times before it was safe to gather in numbers.

They held numerous meetings and calls with the bride and family throughout the planning process. There were important check-ins at key stages, as well as more frequent meetings and discussions as we got closer to the big day. They provided advance planning and in-person support for visiting venues, shopping, for every little detail that you could imagine, including a number that we didn't even know we should be planning for!

In particular, they oversaw all the contracts with other vendors, became the point of contact with those vendors, and provided significant daily support in the week prior to the wedding.

On the wedding day, they took care of absolutely everything. As the bride's parents, we were able to thoroughly enjoy the wedding ceremony and reception while Jen and Kelly took charge of all details. We all had the best time, will have beautiful memories for life because of the superlative support provided to the bride, groom, families, and guests by Short To Please.

I highly recommend Shore To Please Wedding Planning; their services saved us and guided us throughout the planning stages as well as on the wedding day. Knowing that Jen and Kelly were there for us, we all approached the wedding day with confidence, calm, and a sense of joy. They exceeded all of our expectations and I wish I could give them 10 stars instead of 5!

Best decision I made to hire a wedding planning team!

At first I was skeptical to hire a wedding planning team as I thought I could set up the day of myself being it was a small wedding. Well, I am so glad that I decided to hire Jen & Kelly to help set up on my wedding day because without them it wouldn't be possible! As the Bride, you should be worried about getting ready and making sure you are all set... leave the planning to the professionals :) Jen & Kelly are the sweetest and are there with you every step of the way to make sure your vision comes true! I can't say enough good about them and you won't regret spending the little extra to make sure everything comes together! Thanks again!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
