    Experience, Flexibility, and Generosity

    We feel so grateful that we found Jeri and that she agreed to help us with our wedding. Jeri was extremely generous with her time and flexible as we picked and chose the wedding traditions that felt important to us as a couple. Jeri asked us helpful questions leading up to our wedding day, offering her experience and expertise to help us make critical decisions. With her support we were able to rest assured that we wouldn't be trying to solve problems day-of.

    Thank you for your kind words Daniela. I so enjoyed working with you both to achieve "your perfect wedding" and it was perfect! I so had so much fun being your emcee and participating in such a unique and beautiful day. Loved, loved your family and friends. Wishing you both a fantastic happily ever after!

    Absolutely amazing!

    We hired Jeri with Celebrations by Design for both our wedding coordination needs and florals. Jeri was absolutely amazing to work with! She was always available to ask questions and was very knowledgeable about our different vendors, food choices, and even asking her advice on general wedding etiquette. Jeri helped us through the entire process and made us feel at ease. She also coordinated with all of our different vendors and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. The florals were exactly what we asked for and they looked beautiful the day of. We got quotes from several florist, and Jerri’s price was extremely competitive, so we knew we had to go with her. I know she was working her butt off behind the scenes during the wedding, but each time I saw her she had on a smile, and was a very calming presence. You could tell she was truly excited for us to get married that day, and we ended up having such a blast at our wedding. Thank you, Jeri, for all of your help through the process. Highly recommend!

    Celebrations by Design's reply:

    Thank YOU Michelle & Patrick- it was truly a pleasure working with you. I am so glad the day was stress free (my motto 😊) and that you loved the flowers. It was great to see the both of you enjoying every minute! Many wishes for a wonderful life together.

    Dreams Do Come True!

    My husband and I changed our date and venue multiple times and we were overwhelmed with trying to plan our wedding by ourselves. We had no idea how many factors are involved with a wedding. There’s a reason why wedding planners are needed!

    Three months prior to our final date, we had no plans and we were tempted to do a courthouse wedding. Boring!

    Jeri heard our frustration and she quickly helped us settle on a venue at a price we can afford. She took care of every little detail and nothing was missed. She meticulously kept us on track and she was always available to help us. She was kind, caring, and quick with her work. I felt like I was her only client (I wasn’t, but she’s that good).

    She only had 90 days to create and organize our wedding, Most people have one year to work on their weddings for comparison.

    Jeri took the stress away from us and she created a dream wedding. I felt taken care of from start to finish. No detail or due date was missed.

    Flawless, meticulous, curated, and professional VIP service is what you can expect from Jeri. She takes the worry out of weddings!!! Highly recommend!!

    Thank you so very much Jennifer! I loved working with you guys and it was an absolutely beautiful day! Many hugs, Jeri

    Stop what you’re doing and hire Jeri now

    I can’t say enough good things about Jeri’s wedding coordination and planning services. She was kind, responsive, organized, and reliable. Throughout the planning process she helped us stay on track and was quick to help us through so many details that we wouldn’t have even thought about otherwise. Our wedding went so smoothly and Jeri’s services were a big reason why. 10/10 would recommend!

    Thanks so much Tommy & Ashlie - I had so much fun working with you guys! And I just love that last dance. All the best for a fabulous marriage. Jeri

    Our Wedding Day

    I would like to say that Jeri Fitzgerald is the most talented wedding planner, she made sure we were taken care of every step of the way, from meeting us for all the wedding venues selection, to going over every last detail, so much weight was lifted from our shoulders. Jeri, we are beyond grateful to have had your help and wisdom that day, you made our wedding day extra special, and I cannot thank you enough for all your hard work and effort you put into this event! We received multiple compliments from our wedding guest that our wedding was more beautiful than they ever expected! Look no further, and give her a call, you most definitely will Not be disappointed!

    Super helpful for wedding planning

    We met Jeri at a Stillwell House open house. She is friendly and has great energy. Jeri helped us plan several details we had not considered on our own. She has so much experience and unique ideas. Her effort in planning and wedding day execution was more than worth her asking price. She helped us offload much of our stress. On the day of our wedding we were able to enjoy the moments without having to deal with any details.

    Jeri is the whole package!

    Jeri, really is the best! It is easy to become overwhelmed planning your wedding but hiring Jeri, to help you run your wedding will help you relax and enjoy your day! Jeri coordinated all of our vendor's arrival times and set up, helped build our timeline, helped us plan our venue set up / seating chart, took care of setting up and breaking down our venue, ran our rehersal and so much more. There was not a single thing we worried about on our wedding day because Jeri, was there to make sure everything was cared for! She is great with communication, has a vast network of vendors to recommend to you, and is an experienced professional. I would highly recommend investing in a wedding planner/ coordinator and Jeri is really the best for the job.

    Celebrations by Design's reply:

    Thank you so much. What an ahhhhmazing wedding & reception. You and Abel glowed all day and your family and friends partied in that glow making it a spectacular and happy party for everyone full of heartfelt memories! I was so thrilled & honored to be a part of your wedding! Many congratulations again 😘

    Day of coordination

    To say our wedding wouldn't have happened without Jeri is an understatement. She managed us through a pandemic without missing a beat. But, beyond that Jeri's motto during the wedding planning process was "no stress" and she meant it. Truly one of the most stress free days of our lives. She really allowed us to be ourselves, as casual and untraditional as that may have been, and saw our vision and executed it with perfection. It's obvious Jeri loves her job and she's been doing it for so long she intimately knows how weddings go and is prepared for anything that may come up. She was able to help us for our rehearsal even though she had a party at the same time which really speaks to her professionalism and dedication. On the actual wedding day she made sure we were having a great time, helped manage the bridal party and other vendors, guests, any issues that came up and made sure that none of it got back to us, stress free! All of this and the fact the Jeri is a hoot to be around, our guests are still talking about how fun she was at the wedding.

    Celebrations by Design's reply:

    Wow what a day worth waiting for. The joy of watching you Bailey bounce around filled with so much happiness, still brings a tear to my eyes. Your wedding was so much fun and I love that you let loose and enjoyed the day - it was so much fun. Thanks for letting me be part of your memorable day.

    Wonderful!

    We are so happy that we hired Jeri to coordinate the day of our wedding. She was very considerate and invested in making our day special. She is organized, experienced and a pleasure to work with. She met with us several times beforehand to go over all details and had plenty of advice to offer. She handled the wedding day chaos like a champ and helped facilitate a successful ceremony and reception despite the rain! Jeri also provided BEAUTIFUL florals for the bouquets and centerpieces at a reasonable price.

    Celebrations by Design's reply:

    Thank you so much Tatum. Your wedding was gorgeous! That little bit of rain made the whole day. I am so happy you got to get married outside - it was a magical evening. Thanks for allowing me to assist.

    Absolutely amazing

    There’s not enough words to express how amazing Jeri service’s are, because she just doesn’t become your wedding planner she becomes your friend. I thought like most new brides to be that I can plan my own wedding.
    Was I wrong after trying to find the the perfect venue I was so overwhelmed about all the extra things I need to get done. That’s when I decided to hire a wedding planner. I have been honored to have Jeri as my wedding planner twice. Unfortunately life happens and after 15 years with 3 beautiful children my husband passed away. Never during my time with David did I think I would ever get married again. After 5 years of my husband passing I was blessed to meet my Mr. McKenna. So once he popped the question I know with no doubt in my mind that I would be calling Jeri again. The most Beautiful part of this change in my life is that I get to have my children with me this time. Not only was Jari my planner, but a friend to our new blended family who got to share memories with my children about my first wedding with their Dad. Jeri is professional, kind, understanding, and will make your day amazing. Jari make it work with what she has. She definitely makes everything come together without any worries on your part. On the day of your wedding by having Jeri in charge you can definitely enjoy your special day. I was able to enjoy both of my wedding because of Jeri.

    Celebrations by Design's reply:

    Lali & Scott it was such an honor to be a part of your big day. It was an absolutely beautiful wedding and reception and I was honored to assist as well as officiate! Thank you so very much for your kind words and I wish you all the very best that life can give - Much love!

    The most magical experience

    I would highly recommend Jeri from Celebrations by Design. From the very beginning she knew exactly how to keep my proposal planning stress free, always very responsive, friendly, and professional. She will always be my go to person and she will be the best person to have included in our wedding planning also. She has such a warm loving personality, she is truly special and I am very happy that I found her because she made my proposal more perfect than I had even pictured in my mind! She goes above and beyond! She gets a 10 star in my book!
    If anyone is thinking to hire Jeri, don't think twice because she'll get the job done and you won't be disappointed!
    You are the best!
    *Hugs and well wishes

    All the best,
    -Jessie

    Great Experience!

    We had only 8 weeks to plan our wedding. I don't live in Tucson so didn't know any vendors. Jeri had recommendations for every service we needed. She executed flawlessly on every "to-do". She had creative ideas to make our event personal and special. And she handled every detail from the wedding ceremony through the reception. My stress level was so low, I was able to relax and enjoy every minute!

    Jeri is Amazing

    We hired Jeri as our "day of" coordinator and I can't imagine a better experience. We had spent a lot of time planning and Jeri immediately noticed areas we'd missed and made very thoughtful suggestions about how to proceed. During the wedding, she had every detail well in hand, so my bride and I didn't even think once about how the it was going and we were able to just relax and enjoy it. Afterward, we noticed so many nice little touches Jeri made in our decorations, etc, while looking at our pictures/videos. Many of our guests commented on how attentive Jeri is and how she was always making sure everyone had what they needed. Her experience with planning made our night perfect and magical and we are eternally grateful.

    Perfect for Planning Out Of State

    Jeri was wonderful. We were planning our Tucson wedding from the Midwest and I don’t think we could have done it on our own. Jeri always got back to us quickly and made sure that our vision was her vision. Another thing I really valued was the comfort of knowing that if something went wrong, Jeri could fix it, because she honestly knows EVERYONE in Tucson. We made a lot of changes towards the end (literally added a dance floor the day before) and Jeri made all those changes really seamlessly. She has a great attitude, and for the week of our wedding, I didn’t have to double check a thing. She was on top of it.

    Jeri Fitzgerald

    It was an absolute pleasure to work with Jeri. She is personable, responsible, resourceful and patient. She is very capable of handling any problems that may arise and helps relieve the accompanied stress. I will definitely work with Jeri again and will recommend her services to anyone who may need party/event/wedding planner.

    The Best of the Best

    What can we say about Jeri? I don' think there are enough positive words in the English language to summarize our experience.
    Never more than a phone call or a text away Jeri was always there to answer any questions we had as well as relieve all the anxiety that was brewing. She helped us pull together an incredible night in less than 2 months. Her experience really came into play on all the little decisions that no one thinks about until its too late.
    Our favorite part about Jeri is the attitude she has during the entire process. She is an anxiety defusing machine. Everything is done with smile, she is incredible at putting things in perspective. If she was able to make us happy she will make anyone happy.
    THANK YOU AGAIN JERI!!!!
