Hire for dream wedding!

Jody and her team are phenomenal!! She had to deal with me as a covid bride as my wedding was rescheduled 3 times! She was so gracious and was an asset during the planning. It was a destination wedding for us and all the referrals she gave me for vendors were outstanding!! The wedding itself was beyond my wildest dreams. Thanks to Jody and her family that helped I had zero stress on my wedding day! I could not have pulled off a wedding like that without Jody!

What a pleasure to work with!

Jody was so dialed in, from start to finish, for our daughter's wedding. She brought organization and calmness - both big pluses for weddings! She kept us on track in our planning, offering suggestions along the way, and made sure that when the big day arrived all was in place. Even when the baker dropped the cake upon delivery (yes, it happened!) Jody kept this father of the bride calm and guided a replacement in time. She's a pro through and through and we are so thankful she was a part of this special occasion.

Destination Wedding

I don’t know where to begin! I could not have done this without Jody! She went above and beyond! I live 3 hours from the place we wanted our wedding on the beach and we had no idea how we were going to get it done. Jody took care of everything!!! She was a pro with everything and the ceremony looked better than I ever imagined!!! Everyone told me that something always goes wrong on your wedding day, but I am blessed to say that NOTHING went wrong on our wedding day. It was absolutely perfect and I will gladly recommend Weddings By The Sea to anyone and everyone. They are very reasonably priced, very nice people, and they make your dreams come true. I am so grateful that I choose Weddings By The Sea to take care of my wedding! I was/am extremely happy!!! They are, hands down, the best!!!
