If we went back in time and planned our wedding again, the first thing we’d do is book Jennifer from StR Events to plan our wedding. She helped us with our June 2024 wedding as the day-of coordinator but she was so amazing that we *wish* we had had her plan the whole thing. Jennifer is incredibly organized, friendly, and professional. She provided invaluable input on all the last-minute questions from vendors that helped our wedding day go smoothly. She handled all the surprises that came up during the wedding and allowed us to fully enjoy the day we had spent two years planning. I cannot emphasize this enough: she was incredible and directly responsible for us having the best day possible while surrounded by our guests and loved ones.

We love Darcy!! This was worth every cent. I didn’t have to worry about anything the month before the wedding. Darcy helped us think about all the things we didn’t consider in our planning and make sure our bases were covered for rain. She had a magical Mary poppins bag full of things I didn’t even know we might need that day (that we DID need): shout wipes, tissues, safety pins, fashion tape, umbrellas. I’m pretty sure if you needed some wedding vows, CBD gummies, an electrolyte pack, or an emergency cell phone charger, she probably had it in there too.

Aisle planner was another perk of using StR events. I was able to make my reception & ceremony plan A & plan B layouts for Darcy to see where everything from the vendors would go for setup. Definitely take advantage of this tool, it tracks your to-dos, budgets, vendors, layouts, & rsvps.

She gave us 110% and didn’t break a sweat when one of our vendors showed up 3 hours late to set up. She is so professional, she has insight from many past brides experiences & makes you feel like your wedding is the only one she is working this year. I’m recommending her to all my single friends. Best wedding budget money you will spend hands down.

Darcy at StR Events was an ABSOLUTE DREAM to work with! Our new wedding venue hosted a styled shoot, and after our first conversation, Darcy just hit the ground running. I literally didn't have to lift a finger- she did ALL the work and made our venue look amazing! Her attention to detail, friendly personality, and flawless style were exactly what we needed to bring everything together seamlessly. Thank you StR Events, Jennifer, and Darcy! As a retired wedding photographer and 10 years in the industry, I've worked with a LOT of planners. StR Events is hands down the best in the business!

Michelle with StR Events made all my wedding dreams come true. I don't even know where to start about how happy I was to work with Michelle for my wedding. Michelle was nothing but professional, friendly, and organized during my wedding planning process. I repeatedly tell EVERYONE I know who is getting married that SHE was the best money I ever spent. She took my pinterest board inspo photos and helped me verbalize my dream to vendors to make sure my vision was known. She communicated our timeline to make my wedding day run flawlessly. She helped me save money along the way negotiating with vendors on my behalf to make sure every detail I wanted fit in my budget. She took over all the tedious tasks the months before the wedding so that my only role was to make sure I enjoyed myself, and I did! Not only would I highly recommend Michelle, but my mom, my husband and everyone who got to attend my magical wedding made sure to let me know that they would recommend her, as well! She is just the best at what she does and you would be missing out not to hire her and StR Events for your big day!

My husband and I got married on 07/21/2019, and we did a fusion wedding with Reform Jewish and South Indian ceremonies. I grew up in a small town in Ohio that had almost no Jews, and my husband 's family is Veerashaiva (my husband is from CT, his parents are from Bangalore, India), so we had minimal knowledge of even our own traditions going into the planning process. Jennifer (STR Events) was one of two wedding planners in the state of Ohio who noted having experience with Jewish and South Indian weddings, and we were hooked on working with her from our first consultation call. She has the perfect demeanor for this work, with a fierce work ethic balanced by a soft touch, sense of humor, and genuine care for her clients needs/desires. She was honest with us when our ideas would be complicated or outside of our budget, and extremely helpful with providing affordable solutions ranging from vendor recommendations to purchasing cute items for our "Kids Korner" table that she spotted while out at a Dollar Store and texting us. The original package we purchased with her was primarily for taking over 3 months from the wedding and doing day of support, but about 4 months ahead of the wedding we were behind on our planning and when I reached out to Jennifer to see if she could offer further support, and she immediately responded and got to work right away. She found a Chuppah/Mandap ceremony structure (complete with setup, decoration, and all included in the price) for well under our budget, a florist that nailed exactly what we wanted (from table arrangements to garlands), and designed that layouts and stage covering for all of our events (among many other things she helped with). Jennifer also came to all of our Planning Meetings in Mt. Vernon (about an hour away from her offices in Columbus) and never made us feel rushed even when the meetings ran long or another vendor was late. All of our vendors loved working with her, and she was a hit with both of our families, too. She always asked what our vision was for every element of the wedding, and when we had no clue she offered helpful options and suggestions. The day of the wedding she was managing essentially a small army of staff (her two assistants, 6 staff at our venue [a public park], 5 lunchtime caterers, 4 dinner caterers, 5 bartenders, 3 hairstylists, 3 makeup artists, 3 photographers, 2 DJs, 2 Officiants, linen/ceremony structure/table/stage covering rental and setup, dessert delivery, 2 Dhol players, and more), which she handled with ease and grace. We had a swelteringly hot and humid day in July for an outdoor wedding, and Jennifer was prepared with ice cold gatorade and more ready to go for us and our wedding party. At the end of the night it was like magic how everything we brought into the venue wound up back in secure storage at the venue in order for us to pick up the next morning, and Jennifer checked with us about any/everything leftover we had or last minute decisions to make. She also handed all vendor coordination, payments, tip, and so on, which allowed us to truly be present and focus on our big day and the people we love. Lastly, I will forever be indebted to her for--when we were at our most exhausted in the heat and humidity, and people had already begun to disperse--she pushed us to still do a series of family and friends photos after our second ceremony, reasoning that we would regret not doing it later. THANK YOU to Jennifer and STR Events for an unforgettable day!

Jennifer with Str Events was the best thing we ever decided to get for our wedding. She was extremely professional, readily available for questions and recommendations, and worked closely with us to plan our wedding with respect for our budget and desires. The most wonderful thing was Jennifer’s day of participation in the wedding ceremony and reception. She had everything lined up and structured so well that we didn’t have to worry or stress about a single thing and were able to enjoy every moment of the day. Without question we would hire Jennifer again and would most definitely recommend her to anyone seeking help with their event planning.

Where do I even start? Our wedding could not have been more perfect thanks to Jennifer & StR events. Jennifer managed to incorporate every detail I envisioned into a beautiful and cohesive night. She took the stress and worry out of every step of the process from coordinating vendors to logistics and timing of the day-of events. She is extremely organized and no detail was overlooked. Thanks to Jennifer I was able to completely relax the day of the wedding and be present in the moment. I couldn't imagine the day without Jennifer and couldn't be happier. So Amazing - 100,000 stars thank you so much!!

We worked with Michelle planning a "destination" wedding in Hocking Hills, OH. Both of our families live in Ohio, but we live out of state so Michelle's help was so desperately needed! She was able to recommend excellent vendors, and even though she is based in Columbus, she was able to meet us down in Hocking Hills twice before the actual wedding for planning and then the rehearsal. When the actual day came, while my husband and I were getting ready, she and her assistant organized everything from incoming vendors to decorations to the wedding parties themselves. Can't recommend her enough.

Hiring StR Events was the BEST decision we made throughout the entire wedding planning process. From my first phone call with Jennifer I could tell she is very detail-oriented and organized, and I trusted her completely. Jennifer helped us come up with a wedding vision, which was incredibly helpful and made the ceremony and reception so beautiful. Whenever we had questions, we received very quick responses. The weekend of our wedding, I did not worry at all about the logistics of the day. Jennifer and her team were a pleasure to be with on the wedding day and were so helpful. Jennifer even helped ensure we were well fed and had water/drinks when we wanted them, since we were frequently talking with our guests. I 1000% recommend StR Events!! Thank you for everything <3

Working with STR and Jennifer has been a really great experience! When my fiancé and I started wedding planning, we thought we could do it all ourselves, but we quickly learned that if we wanted our wedding vision to come to life, we needed some extra help.

Jennifer started working with us about 8 months before our wedding. She took our crazy ideas and our many planning documents and turned them into easy to follow spreadsheets and realistic timelines. We were sold at our first meeting, and we knew that she understood our vision and respected our decisions. Jennifer acted as a true professional along the way- giving expert opinions, offering support and guidance throughout the whole process.

Every detail was thought out, and she didn't waste our time with unnecessary emails. Jennifer was very efficient, and she always followed up in a timely manner. We knew we were in good hands with Jennifer and that she would deliver excellent results!

In the weeks leading up to our wedding, Jennifer followed up with all of our vendors, and she kept us updated on any changes or notes that we needed to be aware of. She made herself available to us, and we appreciated the fact that her assistance made it possible for us to enjoy this special time with our family and friends.

One of the reasons we wanted to work with Something to Remember is that we wanted our wedding to reflect 'us' but we also wanted everything to run smoothly, and for us not to have to worry about every single detail on our wedding day. Jennifer made this possible for us!

I highly recommend Something to Remember and Jennifer Drew for your wedding or other large scale event!
