    Could not recommend more!!

    We worked with Jenna and her team at Compass Rose to provide coordination for our wedding and I could not have been happier. From the intro call all the way through to the end of the event it was clear that they were really listening to us and our preferences, and attentive to the areas that we needed help (even if we did not know them ourselves!). She uses a lot of really helpful tech tools to help you keep track of your planning and to download your brain into a package that is easily transferrable to her and her team for implementation. I would also say that all the services were excellent value; we found her early on in the process and she was so helpful - and as the bills started piling in I kept being thankful for all we were recieving at Jenna's contracted rate. Could not recommend more!

    Compass Rose Coordination's reply:

    Karyn & Eric! Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad you felt heard and well-supported throughout your planning process. It was a joy to bring your vision to life, and we're thrilled our tools and team enhanced your experience. It was truly a pleasure to work with you and to help bring your vision to life!

    Detailed, Reliable and Stress-free Experience

    Jenna (owner and founder of CRC) is professional, reliable, and highly skilled. As a slightly older, very particular and at times demanding client, I can say that Jenna was able to navigate my desires, my personality, and my high expectations with confidence and grace. She always made me feel supported while also giving her knowledgeable feedback. If she disagreed with me, I knew she was right. I trusted her expertise in the industry and with the vendors and she never proved me wrong. She went above and beyond to make my day absolutely perfect and she is worth her weight in gold.

    Your event was so lovely–we're still dreaming about it! Thanks for letting us be a part of your day Roopa & John!

    Amazing Service! Highly Recommend!

    My husband and I used Compass Rose Coordination for our wedding and we couldn't be happier with their services. Madison and Jenna were so thorough in their assistance and we can't thank them enough. They made our wedding day run so smoothly and were there for us every step of the way to answer any questions we had and offer their expertise. Highly recommend!

    Compass Rose Coordination's reply:

    Katie & Mike!! Thank you so much for your kind review and for helping other amazing couples like y'all find some really cool vendors - at least, we think so! Looking forward to all the life updates!!

    Amazing coordinator

    This review is long overdue!

    Jenna and her team are amazing and they really made our wedding day perfect. Jenna was always happy to answer questions we had and even made sure both of our parents could come to the meetings so everyone was on the same page. She helped make our wedding day a chill and relaxed day!

    The most important thing Jenna did for us was on the wedding day. She not only made sure everything ran smoothly so my mother and I could just enjoy the day, she also literally saved the day. My husband almost passed out during the ceremony. From the moment he sat down, Jenna was already there with water and a capri sun for him. Her whole team helped make sure he was ok and helped get him back on his feet again so we could finish the ceremony. After the ceremony she helped rearrange our timeline so we could have a moment of peace to take in what just happened. Again like magic she was there with a plate of appetizers from our cocktail hour. She also made sure my husband had enough water/juice for the remainder of the evening. I think this truly shows how much she cares about her couples!

    I’ve been in many wedding and I think Jenna is by far the best coordinator I’ve ever worked with. She makes sure your wedding dreams come true and is even prepared for events you didn’t even think would happen. I’m so happy we had her there for us that day.

    Compass Rose Coordination's reply:

    We love seeing reviews like this and helping couples experience the joy of wedding planning! So glad we could help you on such a beautiful and important day!

    Jenna and Team and great

    Jenna made sure that everything ran as smoothly as possible! She was super kind and answered all of my questions leading up to the the big day and took the time to walk me through things! I felt like I could trust her with the day. Would definitely recommend this team!

    Compass Rose Coordination's reply:

    Thanks, Katie! I loved working with you, and your wedding party was amazing! You've surrounded yourselves with some great people!

    So supportive!

    My husband and I highly recommend the Compass Rose coordination team for your event! We felt so supported throughout the entire planning process and our team was AMAZING! From the first zoom call (our coordinator introduced me to her dog which I loved) - I knew I had made the right choice because it felt like chatting with a friend. We had never planned a wedding before and didn't know what we wanted for certain things and they were great at giving us different suggestions so that we could make an informed decision.
    We had a weather related incident that forced us to have to change the location of our rehearsal and the team handled it so efficiently and professionally. They called me to tell me they were handling it and within an hour it was completely handled - I can remember feeling so incredibly grateful that I had their support and guidance.

    Compass Rose Coordination's reply:

    Mary, it was a delight to help you coordinate your wedding. Rain and a little flooding didn't stop us! Thanks for trusting us with your wedding day!

    CRC is a wedding day MUST!!!

    If you are second-guessing a day of coordinator, don't talk yourself out of it! Jenna and Madison were the ULTIMATE team and we couldn't have gotten through our wedding weekend without their help! Jenna was always on top of communication, so lovely to work with such professionalism, and just made me feel at ease planning the big day even from a different state. I 100% recommend and am so happy for choosing CRC 💛

    Compass Rose Coordination's reply:

    This is the sweetest! We loved helping you and Will celebrate the start of your marriage!! Our team always loves hearing how we were able to impact your day.

    Compass Rose Coordination is AMAZING!!!!

    Can't recommend CRC enough... YOU NEED TO HIRE JENNA & HER TEAM!!!!! She's just amazing, and we couldn't have asked for better or more efficient help. Seriously anyone having a wedding in the Virginia Beach area – just do it. Their knowledge of vendors, best practices and experience with knowing that to anticipate for our event was unmatched. My wedding day was low-stress (and I'm a type A person) because I knew the small details were totally covered by Jenna & her team. CRC was 100% worth every penny spent!

    Compass Rose Coordination's reply:

    Morgan, you are so kind. Helping you and Wes was a highlight of our year. We are so stoaked you are so happy with everything. We love hearing the impact we had. Cheers to the years you get to celebrate!!

    Jenna will be your fairy godmother on your wedding day

    Jenna was THE best choice we made for our big day. If you're on the fence on whether having a wedding coordinator is a good idea or waste of money - GET JENNA, she is worth it! If you have a parent, or you yourself, who you know will not enjoy your big day because they're too busy making sure everything is going well - GET JENNA, she will make sure they actually be present and enjoy the wedding.

    We hired Compass Rose Coordination as our wedding coordinator for our July 23, 2022 wedding, but Jenna actually communicated with us officially since April 2022. And long before that she was very easy to reach and make an appointment with.

    She would often check in just to see how I was feeling. (I was anxious throughout much of the planning process simply because of money worries, being prone to anxiety, and making sure the wedding was an inclusive experience not just for the guests, but for the introverted groom too.) But without fail, every time I talked to Jenna she put my mind at ease and had answers for everything. She made me feel like it was going to be the perfect day because she was on our team. And it truly was!

    She wrangled the circus of vendors the month before the wedding making sure that everyone was on the same page, sending out information, and making sure all requirements were met for the wedding venue owner.

    Not only is Jenna incredibly organized and kind, but she is SO patient with my mom and has a can-do attitude. On our actual wedding day, she was my fairy godmother. There supposedly was an injury with my videographer and she was on the scene, as decision maker. (Videographer ended up being ok). I never once saw Jenna in slow motion - she was directing, organizing, and executing our wedding vision in a way that was even more perfect than we had imagined. And she was even flexible when my mom. when she asked for a first look with the father of the bride to be included in the pre-ceremony photos. The whole day was in one location, but the property was pretty huge and yet she made sure to check in and give small updates. And checked in on the very nauseous groom as well.

    My absolute favorite thing about the unspoken services Jenna provided. Like making my mom feel supported and her vision on the decor a reality. I’m my mom’s only kid and she cared a lot about how the decor was going to be and such. Flashback to my Quinceañera - I had no moments with my mom that day because she was busy making sure it went well. I did not want that to happen on my wedding day. Jenna earned my mom’s trust that weekend and made sure my mom was actually present on the wedding day instead of worrying about table layouts or if any family members were missing at the chapel. I got to make memories with my mom instead.

    When I say that we could not have had the wedding without her, it's not an exaggeration. Truly, she made it all possible, and got along with my vendors fabulously. We are so thankful for Jenna and her team and will always recommend Compass Rose Coordination - without hesitation. Also, one of the many reasons I hired Jenna was because I liked that we were around the same age, so I felt like she “got me” as I made small decisions over the bouquet toss being inclusive, how we would like our names to be introduced, considering environmental impact, etc.

    Thank you for making our day one to remember and for fixing my makeup by removing the tear stains and for fluffing up my dress right as I walked down the aisle.

    Compass Rose Coordination's reply:

    Gaby, words cannot express how much your kind review means to me. It meant so much for my team and me to be trusted to be part of your special day! I can't wait to hear all about your amazing surprise honeymoon and your marriage journey! 💕

    Absolutely in love!

    Jenna was able to help plan and organize our wedding all within about two months of our big day! She definitely outdid herself and exceeded our expectations!!

    Compass Rose Coordination's reply:

    Thanks for your review, Kendra! We were so happy to be a piece of your wedding! Blowing your expectations out of the water is one of our top goals!!

    Awesome!!!

    Jenna is amazing. She made my wedding planning easy. She is professional and extremely organized! She literally made sure every little detail was met! Everything ran very smoothly and it was all because of Jenna! She made sure I could enjoy my day. I was a princess for the day. She is awesome!

    Wedding coordination that goes above and beyond

    I could write a novel with all the great things I have to say about Compass Rose Coordination. We hired Jenna as our month-of-coordinator, but she actually communicated with us throughout the entire five months we were planning our wedding. She would often check in just to see how I was feeling. (I was anxious throughout much of the planning process simply because it's not something I looked forward to doing.) But without fail, every time I talked to Jenna she put my mind at ease and had answers for everything. She made me feel like it was going to be the perfect day because she was on our team. And it truly was!

    Due to the pandemic, we had a wedding where 99% of our guests attended via Zoom. Our parents were the only in-person guests. Because of that, we had a LOT of tech equipment: multiple camera set ups, tripods, Bluetooth microphones and speakers, a 40" TV that had to be set up and connected to our laptop to run the Zoom. When we told Jenna about our plans for the virtual component, she consulted with her fiancé who has a lot of tech experience, and they were actually able to give us a lot of important advice on how to best orchestrate the virtual set up and logistics for the day of the wedding. And if that wasn't already above and beyond, he actually came with her to the wedding and was instrumental in making sure all of our equipment was set-up, audio was working, and cameras were positioned and streaming properly.

    Not only is Jenna incredibly talented and resourceful, but she is SO kind and has a can-do attitude. On our actual wedding day, she was a warrior. Despite having a microwedding (just a ceremony, cake cutting & toast) we were still on site for about 7 hours. I never once saw Jenna in slow motion - she was directing, organizing, and executing our wedding vision in a way that was even more perfect than we had imagined. We just showed up and got to enjoy the day. It was like buying an airline ticket, and then showing up to board the flight and being upgraded to first class. When I say that we could not have had the wedding without her, it's not an exaggeration. Truly, she made it all possible, and the live stream via Zoom was executed flawlessly. We are so thankful for Jenna and Evan and will always recommend Compass Rose Coordination - without hesitation.

    Vibrant Professionalism

    Compass Rose Coordination is the definition of perfection when it comes to planning and executing a wedding event. No detail was left un-discussed when planning our wedding and my wife and I were immediately sold on the level of experience and expertise available to us. We felt comforted that each and every single one of our needs were going to be met and well managed throughout the entire process. Even during the COVID-19 pandemic, a great mix of phone calls and video calls left us at peace with the decision we made to hire Compass Rose Coordination. Leading up to our day, we were able to finalize timelines and leave our vendors in capable hands that ensured they were clear on expectations and ready to turn our day into a day we would remember forever. The day of, we had not a care in the world outside of ourselves because everything was so well handled by Compass Rose Coordination; there was legitimately no room to panic. No matter the situation, we are more than sure Compass Rose Coordination can handle it; everything about our experience was flawless and catered to our personal preferences.

    Compass Rose Coordination's reply:

    We are so happy you enjoyed your experience! Working with you both was the best and I'm loving seeing how you're thriving as a married couple!
