Jess and Ravonne made the entire wedding process so much easier. It was great to know that I wasn't the only one who had all the large and small details of the event living in my head. It was challenging for me to step back from planning on the day and only be the bride, but I had 100% trust that the event was in good hands.

Jessica took on the role as coordinator and made things go incredibly smoothly. Her preparation and attention day of prevented mishaps and turned the various vendors (each doing their own thing) into a coordinated team that operated as one well oiled unit.

As DJ I attend a lot of weddings and few things can set you up for success like having Stark White as your planner!

After interviewing a few different vendors, I hired Jessica at Stark White Weddings to act as our "day of" wedding coordinator. Our wedding was to be outdoors at a private lakeside property and we realized early on that it would require extensive planning and more than we could handle ourselves. Everything had to be brought onto the site (food, table set up, chairs, alter and decor, etc.). It was fairly complex with a lot of moving parts. We needed help in coordinating day of activities and handling the flow of the day, the guests, the ceremony, string musicians, caterer delivery, etc. In addition, the weather was leaning toward rain so we needed a back up plan just in case. We felt that we needed a day of wedding coordinator to assist and to enable us to relax some and enjoy the day. There was a lot of work to be done and Jessica hit it out of the park!

She created multiple zoom meetings prior to the wedding day to discuss our needs (we live 5 hours from the venue) and was quick to respond to all of our pre-wedding questions and concerns. Within a short time, she had created a detailed timeline for the wedding day and shared all information via a google doc site that she set up. She also ensured, in advance, that our vendors were clear of their contractual obligations so that potential vendor issues would be avoided. We had already hired the vendors but she took it upon herself to understand their obligation to us. She and her assistant arrived very early the morning of the wedding (the ceremony wasn't until 3 pm) to set up the table settings, help with floral set up and and ensured the reception/bar area was ready to go, among many other things. Anything we needed, she was on it. Rain did come along (unfortunately) and she and her assistant ensured that the ceremony space was changed up and that the wedding party and guests stayed comfortable and dry. The entire day, she and her assistant were professional, pleasant and always three steps ahead to avert any problems or issues. Because of her hard work and expert organization skills, we were able to really relax and enjoy the day's festivities. Her pricing is reasonable and she delivered everything she promised and then some! I strongly recommend Jessica and Stark White Weddings--she was amazing! (Thank you so much, Jessica & Kevin!)
