    Whitely is the best!!

    I booked this service in the beginning stages of the wedding planning process because our venue required a day of coordinator. Their prices were fair which was the main reason for hiring them. I got assigned Whitley, and I could not ask for anyone better. Other than being one of the sweetest people ever, she was on top of everything! She has a way with people, we had a few guests drink too much at our wedding and got out of hand and she controlled the situation and made the night go smoothly. Prior to the wedding, we had a walkthrough of the venue and she had a vision! She made sure that vision was met the day of and was just amazing. JR Events, Whitley needs a raise or a promotion or something! I will never forget how much she helped us in our day.
    The only complaint I did have was not Whitley’s fault, it was our venue. At the end of the night we had to pay extra money because we had so many hours and our venue needed them to stay the whole night but we were unaware of this till we were eating dinner on our wedding day. It was originally 800 but we had to pay another 500 on the spot. Good thing we had cash!

    Best wedding coordinators in Jax!

    If I could give them 10 stars I would. Mella makes you feel so comfortable from the moment you meet her. She makes promises and then delivers them 1000%. You can see that she genuinely loves doing what she does and she cares about EVERYONE who is involved. She is a literal blessing to have on your wedding day. We are beyond grateful and so thankful for J.R. Events for making this day so special and one that we will never forget ❤

    A necessity!

    Our day of coordinator was super friendly and professional, I don’t know how I could have done everything without her, she kept us up to date and informed and helped maintain our schedule.

    Made our dream wedding possible!

    Jade and the staff of J.R. Events are exceptional! Jade really went above and beyond for my wedding! Two days before my wedding we had an issue with our baker not being able to deliver our cake and cupcakes to our venue. I was really stressed out about it. I talked to Jade about the situation and she took all of the stress away. On our wedding day, Jade went to the bakery and picked up our wedding cake and cupcakes and brought it to the venue. I will forever be grateful to her for saving the day! I had so many guests come to me after wedding and say how well organized everything was and how much they loved Jade and her staff. I highly recommend J.R. Events and will use them for future events!

    Amazing and absolutely wonderful!

    J.R. Events (specifically Amber and Nyasia) made my wedding day as stress free as possible. Everything that we wanted they made happen. My family praised how easy it was on their end. J.R. Events can plan/coordinate any of my future events.

    Everything I needed

    Jade was amazing. She was everything I could have asked for as my wedding coordinator. She covered every aspect of the wedding and kept me in the loop to make sure she was doing what I wanted for my wedding. My sister was a wedding planner and she was very impressed with Jade and her team. Thank you again Jade!!

    Stress free

    I spent the night enjoying my wedding because Nicole and Donna took over EVERYTHING. I did not have to worry about anything. Even the small details like having our presents moved to our hotel room, getting us both to-go plates of food into our hotel room mini fridge, and keeping our beers refilled made our day!! We were so impressed and couldn’t thank them enough. We had to make last minute changes due to weather, but they took the stress completely off of us and handled it all. Would absolutely recommend and use again!!

    Professional and detail oriented!

    J.R. Events is always so professional and on top on things! AJ was the best wedding coordinator I could’ve asked for. The patience and attention to detail that these ladies have is phenomenal. Our whole wedding went smooth and on schedule from start to finish with my minor meltdowns and requests in the mix! Everyone was comfortable and amazed that they were running the show behind the scenes and checking on tables the whole time! Thank you ladies for your hard work and dedication to what you do!

    The absolute best

    Coming from probably one of the most anxious brides Jade has had, she was incredible at taking away my stress. My husband and I have nothing but great things to say about her and her team. Even our family and friends were complimenting her throughout the wedding process. I had Jade as a day of coordinator, and my only regret was not utilizing her sooner to help plan as well. We had a couple setbacks during wedding day, such as our cake delivery van breaking down on the side of the road, and a thunderstorm that came out of nowhere right at ceremony start time. She knew how much we wanted an outdoor ceremony and she made it happen. She adjusted the timeline for the rest of the night just to give us what we wanted, all the while constantly asking what she could do for us to help relieve stress or just to check in. I am so impressed with Jade and her team, and would recommend them to anyone.

    The BEST staff to pull off a Perfect Wedding!!

    My son and (now) daughter-in-law had their wedding here, and it was perfect.
    The staff of J.R. Events (Jade & Mella) Rob were awesome. They helped really put all issues that came up, including some high-stress moments that had the bride worried, to rest and made everyone feel as though it was no big deal! "We have you covered" seemed to be the mantra they worked under. Literally no issue was too large or panic-inducing.....they covered it with calmness and ease. Awesome Work! When a smudge was noticed on brides dress....Panic ensued. But these staff members were quick in resolving it and getting the dress dirt spots cleaned up before the ceremony.

    I cannot say enough to great support, hard work, and dedication that this group of people had for the entire outcome of such a beautiful wedding. They truly went above and beyond, every step of the way.

    Thank you to Jade & Mella for making a highly stressful day, PERFECT beyond expectations.

    Uh-mazing 10/10

    If you’re looking for a wonderful stress free wedding or event look no further! Jade and her team are absolutely amazing they do such a wonderful job taking care of all your wants and needs through out your entire event. My Husband and I got married on 11/12/21 and it couldn’t have been better! AJ and Jade blew my mind with how attentive they were I never wanted for anything longer than a few mins! I’ve only been married once (hope to keep it that way 😂) but I couldn’t have asked for a better team! Thank you so much!

    Planner, coordinator, bartender

    We could not have pulled off such an amazing wedding without Jade and her team. From the initial stage of planning to the flexibility needed to deal with Covid she was on top of it all. If you want a planner who can handle ANYTHING you need to work with her.

    Organized and Stress-Free

    We had the pleasure of working with Jade and she was phenomenal! I am very “Type A,” and she was understanding and quick to answer all of my wedding questions before the date. My family and precious brides in my bridal party were all impressed with her work. If you want a reliable wedding coordinator, hire her company. I had high expectations and she exceeded them. I cannot say enough good things about her!

    Amazing Coordinator and Team

    I could not have asked for a better coordinator for our wedding day! Something I didn’t think I even needed but will 100% recommend going forward to any new brides I know! Jade and her team is amazing and fun to work with. She took everything into her own hands and made sure the day went smoothly. She maintains a personal feel while being extremely professional in her business. Our guests were even impressed by how smoothly the day went. I can’t express enough how thankful I was and still am to have had her as our coordinator! Thank you Jade!

    Flawless, Stress-Free Day

    Jade and her team helped to create the most wonderful day for my now husband and I. She was there to calm my stress through some of the toughest moment and worked so hard to be sure I was happy and content. I was so thankful to have Jade there to help everything run smoothly and talk me down when I was on the verge of being overwhelmed. She has such a calm demeanor that allowed me to put my full trust in her! Every time someone asked me a question my response was, “I don’t know, ask Jade” because that’s how much I trusted her and her decision making! I knew she had my best interest in mind and would make all of my dreams come true. She even joined us on the dance floor to sing along to Lizzo and dance to the Wobble. She was the perfect mix of fun and down to business! I couldn’t have dreamed of a better coordinator for my day. Having Jade and her team there made me feel completely at ease and I am so so grateful for her!

    My favorite person

    I cannot say enough good things about Jade! She was my favorite person the day of our wedding. She kept me from stressing out and was well organized and professional. Jade managed everyone and everything the day of, including some of my family haha! Anything that was about to go wrong, she quickly managed, and I’m sure there were more things she managed that I had no idea about. She helped our wedding day be as perfect as it was! I will be recommending Jade and her team to everyone I know that’s getting married because of how amazing she is.

    The. Best. Period.

    If I could start this off by saying 500X in a row that Jade is absolutely AMAZING – it probably would still not be enough! She is so passionate about her business and that’s what truly makes her the best. Truthfully, we couldn't have asked for a better coordinator. She helped to make sure that our wedding was just perfect, and as far as my husband and I know, it was! Throughout the planning process, we met multiple times and each time she made sure that we were not stressed at all and that all of the details were taken care of – no detail was left untouched. There was nothing too big (or too small) for her to handle! She is just incredible and we couldn't recommend her enough to anyone who is planning any type of event! She is the BEST!

    You need Jade!

    Honestly, we thought we could get through our wedding without a coordinator. and, phew, I had no idea how wrong I was.
    We hired Jade a couple of months before our wedding as I began to realize we would want/need help the day of our wedding. Jade was personable and helpful from the start. However, she made herself invaluable for our big day. Jade and her assistant, Lisa, the "Professional People Wranglers," allowed our wedding to go smoothly. They helped both myself and the groom along with all of our guests to relax and enjoy the day. Jade and her staff go above and beyond for her clients and have both the big picture and the details down pat. Simply put: you need Jade and J.R. Events!

    Simply amazing!

    Jade and her team were awesome and so friendly! As a photographer, working with other vendors and coordinators can be chaotic. Jade was a breeze and so very efficient. My bride raved about her and so do I. You won't regret hiring J.R. Events (and your vendors will thank you!)

    The Greatest Vendor I Hired!

    Jade is amazing, so easy to talk to, super personable, will run to the store at the last second to get you what you need, just the absolute greatest coordinator you could find. It was scattered thunderstorms the day of our wedding and I really wanted to be able to have our ceremony outside. We made a plan B just in case by Jade new my dream and didn’t let me down. She made sure everything went perfectly and any hiccups she came up with a solution that made us all happy! She dealt with absolutely everything and her staff was so incredible! If you want a stress-free wedding with a coordinator that will know and love your vision... there’s no other choice. ALSO an awesome price to top it off! Couldn’t have asked for anyone better! We love you Jade!!!

    Jade was incredible!

    We hired Jade for our "Month of Coordinator". She was super easy to work with, on top of everything, and she really just helped my husband and I to be able to have a stress free wedding day. Overall a wonderful Coordinator, if you're on the fence about hiring a Coordinator or whether or not to choose Jade, all I can say is go for it. You will not regret it!

    Couldn't have asked for a better coordinator!

    Jade and her team were absolutely amazing!
    From the very first time I had a conversation with Jade and Nicole, I could tell that I would be in good hands. They were organized, asked good questions, and helped me feel totally at peace about my day-of coordination. They went above and beyond whenever they could, and basically made it so that I had a worry-free wedding. We had a few schedule adjustments during our reception and they handled it with ease. Our guests had an amazing time and I know it was partially because Jade and company pulled everything together so seamlessly. Not only are they professional and great at what they do, they are all so pleasant to work with. They are amazing people and professionals. I highly recommend Jade and her team to take care of your coordination needs!

    Jade Stanley was an absolute dream to work with. Jade was able to assist with a timeline to ensure everything was taken care of on time; she was able to utilize her event experience when my wife and I had no idea what direction we wanted to go for certain decisions. Jade was very prompt with email, always early to appointments, and was very fun but all business about being efficient and working with us to get things perfect. Jade performed the walkthrough for our rehearsal and took care of all items on the day of our wedding. Even with no-call no-shows for our big day Jade was able to rearrange tables, give us light status updates for photos, and our event was ON TIME. Upon starting the process on planning a wedding my wife and I were nervous of all of the time needed to plan everything. Even with both of us working full time jobs while planning Jade essentially broke our timeline down to efficiently deciding all major details and working them out one by one. This made our wedding experience all the more enjoyable and memorable.

    Jade and her team our truly amazing to work with! I had my dream wedding planned and then it rained. Jade was on top of everything and had a wonderful backup plan. She got all my vendors working together to pull off what I thought was impossible, a perfect wedding. She made everything flawless and I got to enjoy the day without a worry. Jade listened to every idea and made it happen and took all my fears about the day away. I couldn't have done it with out her!

    I attended an awesome wedding with JR Events Planning at the Helm, and it was ( Magnificent ) to see the excellent standard they set to honor the bride and groom and their guest. I will hire them when I'm ready to make that plunge.

    Hiring Jade and her team (J.R. Events) was absolutely one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. Jade and her team were awesome; awesome being an understatement! The number one thing I wanted for my wedding was for it to be stress free (haha) for myself as well as my family and future hubby, and they delivered! It was so special to be able to spend time with our families before the ceremony and not have to worry about any of the set up or even things running smoothly. From my very first meeting with Jade (before we had even decided to go with her!) she was extremely helpful and outgoing! Even though we only hired J.R. Events for “Day of” coordination, they were there every step of the way. We had 3 meetings leading up to the wedding with Jade and Nicole, every meeting I left feeling organized and that all my wants for the wedding would be met! Jade was never more than a text or call away the whole year that I was wedding planning; whether I was asking a simple question on etiquette, to a very detailed question on the timeline! On the day of our wedding, Nicole and Britnie were there early and stayed late. They worked with all of our different vendor’s in setting up and ensured that everything went smoothly. I cannot thank Nicole and Britnie enough for how hard they worked and the commitment that they showed in making sure everything was EXACTLY how I wanted it. I would recommend J.R. Events to anyone in a heartbeat!

    Where do I start? With the immaculate execution? The attention to detail? The professionalism and punctuality? No, I’ll start with the friendship.

    Working with Jade while planning my wedding was like working with a friend, if the friend were organized, punctual, creative, and goal oriented. I have zero tolerance for arts and crafts or party planning. However, Jade and J.R. Events made everything great. We had fun from start to finish and Jade always made me feel like my opinion mattered the most. I consulted other wedding planners who required that they have final creative say so. Jade valued my input and gave suggestions where needed.

    Jade and her staff went above and beyond the details outlined in their contract. They provided full service from beginning to end. Jade worked with our church to coordinate the ceremony. She volunteered to decorate the church. She helped us find a venue for the reception and assisted with all the decisions and negotiations that were involved with decor, catering, music, etc. Other contractors (photographer, cake designer) were recommended by Jade and each one has done a phenomenal job.


    At the end of the night Jade and her staff even packed up our goodies and cleaned the venue so well that we got our deposit back immediately. There was a little hiccup with the caterer not delivering the appetizers and dinner as agreed upon. Jade and her team corrected the issue without anyone knowing there was a problem. I didn’t find out until we returned from our honeymoon. She also helped us get a refund for services not rendered.

    Jade did all this at a price that was well below reasonable and with a positive, friendly attitude. We got along so well I even invited her to my bachelorette party. She came and brought even more goodies with her.

    I can’t say enough good things about J.R. Events. I can’t wait to throw another party just so I can work with them again.

    With love,
    Mrs. Cynthia Ivy

    J.R. Events, with Jade at the helm, cannot be beat. They were like ninja, invisible day of wedding coordinators that were hardly seen but quietly and effectively got everything done. Suddenly everything was set up, people were where they needed to be, and the wedding event was merely unfolding in front of our eyes with pristine perfection. As Mother of the bride, that left me with only one thing to do--enjoy my baby girl's big day!! Jade and team, we cannot thank you enough!

    Jade and Donna were AWESOME! I don't know what I would have done without them! Jade worked with us prior to the wedding to make sure everything was running smoothly. She would even think of us while planning other weddings. The ceremony and reception were set up beautifully, thanks to them. I would recommend them to anybody who is getting married. They are very reasonably priced and well worth it!

    Jade and her staff was just awesome! I struggled with deciding to hire a coordinator because I wasn't sure if I would need one. I've seen the many events that Jade and her team managed and would always hear positive reviews so I hired JR Events for our wedding. It was the best decision, besides marrying the man of my dreams. The exceptional attention to detail and their experience made my day stress free! The amazing customer service and their professionalism far exceeded the value, it was worth every penny and then some! Thank me later!

    The J.R. Events team was a god-send! Our wedding coordinator canceled 3 weeks before our wedding. At that point there was sooo much left to do, with a dwindling budget. A good friend referred Jade and her team, and it was the best decision we made. They were beyond professional from the first call to before we walked down the isle. Provided detailed recaps, timelines and worked around our busy schedule. I also have to mention the fresh, creative direction that made our day unforgettable. J.R. Events smoothed out an extremely stressful situation with ease. The only regret I have is not hiring them the day after we got engaged. I only could imagine the results if they had more time to flex their creative muscles.

    JR Events helped me plan and day of coordinated my wedding in August of 2016. I was in constant communication with my coordinator and she took my feedback well. Having the help took so much stress away from a potentially stressful day. Not only did they help me with my wedding, they have coordinated several charitable events throughout the community that I was able to attend. I am appreciative of their help and the support they continue to give to those in need.

    Jade was such a pleasure to work with. She went above and beyond before and after our wedding to ensure everything ran smoothly. I was an hour ish late to the ceremony and she remained calm at all times. Also hosted part of the reception on the last minute. I would recommend Jade to any bride wh wants to hire a professional

    Working with J.R. Events to plan and coordinate my wedding was a great decision and money well spent. Jade and her team went above and beyond to execute my vision for my wedding. I tend to be a control freak and bossy at times (bridezilla) but Jade and her team were always gracious and professional. With J.R. Events I got great advice, wonderful ideas, and plenty of vendor options which ensured every little detail of my day was taken care of. I can't say enough about my experience working with J.R. Events! I highly recommend and will use them in the future if ever I have an event to plan.

    JR Events is one of the best. The service provided was phenomenal! I also appreciated their ability to customize and make events special. From the personalized map where guest can draw their name where they are from to the picture booth! The event was not only elegant but also a fun atmosphere to celebrate with family and friends. Highly recommend!

    Great value and excellent service

    Jade was a pleasure to work with. She was very flexible and easy to work with. She handled my family members with their own ideas very professionally. The entire wedding party commented on how good the team was and considered everything. She ran out and made last minute purchases for items I forgot. I only wish I had chosen her for 30 days out instead of day of. We highly recommend Jade.

    Beautiful day for a beautiful bride.

    I used JR Events to help with my daughter's wedding on October 20, 2018. She was quick to respond and was very organized. The day of the event had a few hiccups but the day was beautiful and the bride was happy with how things went. Thankful for Jade and her group who took all the headaches of me trying to do it by myself away. Thanks again for making it a special day.
