What a wonderful wedding, thank you Jelena!
We booked Jelena for both flowers and for her partial planning services and were so, so happy with both. While planning the event, she was happy to put us in touch with potential vendors, all while making sure we were ticking things off the to-do list at the right schedule. The rehearsal, ceremony, and reception all went off without a hitch, and Jelena was always on hand, always on the lookout for anything that might go wrong, and made sure that everyone knew where they were supposed to be and when. The week after the wedding, the event coordinator at our church asked us to send her Jelena’s contact info because she was floored by her eagle-eyed attention to detail and competence, and wanted to be able to recommend her for other couples. The “master timeline” she put together for the day of was my particular favorite service she provided. It broke the day down into five minute blocks explaining exactly where people needed to be and when, from us arriving at the church at 8am to get ready all the way to the grand exit and cleanup at midnight.
For flowers, she worked with us to make sure she knew exactly what flowers, colors, and styles we wanted and where. I think I learned more about flowers in our consults with her than in my previous 30 years of life combined.
All in all, I can’t recommend her enough! -

There's so many good things to say. I'm not sure where to start! Jelena was the sweetest, kindest, and most helpful with ALL the things! When I say ALL, I mean everything! Jelena was hired to provide our flowers and her day-of planning services for our wedding, but she was so much more. She listened to my frustrations and fears and provided guidance by letting me pick her brain from day 1, not just the month leading up to the wedding. Jelena kept great communication throughout the entire time! Her attention to detail is impeccable!! The decorations were absolutely beautiful, and the extra touches of rose petals and the candles in front of our table were absolutely gorgeous! We also had succulents included in our floral arrangements, and Jelena took the time after the wedding not only to gather several for me to plant at home, but even helped by taking all the floral tape off, packaged them with care, and provided tips on how to plant them. And, one of my most favorite parts was... during cocktail hour, my husband ended up with makeup from a guest on his tuxedo. Jelena noticed immediately and jumped into action cleaning it with a wet wipe. Something small, but it truly is these little things that made all the difference and made our day as perfect as could be! We are so blessed to have found Jelena 💜 (more pics to come when we get them!) -

If you want sanity and an amazing vision for florals for your wedding, look nowhere else! We found JBK Weddings at the Seattle Bridal Show in 2019 and were amazed by her fairy-tale aesthetic at her booth! We actually won a raffle to get a discount on her day-of-coordinating services and upon meeting, she gave us the reality check for our budget. She was thorough to explain the average costs, what we could get, and what we were asking, and provided vendor suggestions which was extremely needed and appreciated. This was how we knew we could trust Jelena with our biggest day of our lives - she was also genuinely excited to be a part of our wedding. Any meeting we had with her - we were always jazzed! Since we had to postpone twice (thanks pandemic!), we decided Jelena would also be our florist. As two brides, she carefully catered our bouquets to our aesthetics and personalities which we truly loved and she communicated with us our plan and floral plan every step of the way. Leading up to the wedding, she also saved the day when we had issues with our recommended make-up artist and managed to smooth our walks with our family and bridal party during rehearsal. On the day of the wedding, when it came to the venue decor, she made our vision for a fairy tale wedding come to life! (look at these photos!) She also made sure we were brought plates to eat during the reception and kept the showing going. People kept coming up to us to tell us how amazing Jelena was keeping everything coordinated and how beautiful the floral decor was. She's THE best! -

Excellent floral designer
Jelena did my bridal bouquet, our arch arrangements and boutonnières. She excelled at creating my vision, and got the bridal bouquet down to a tee! She was responsive and easy to work with. Would highly recommend for floral design. -

Jelena was a dream to work with. Super responsive, great communication and strong understanding of what I wanted. When our plans changed and I wanted to change up the color scheme, it was no issue. When I needed to change the order amount, again no issue. She handled it all with ease. Another aspect, I respected and appreciated so much was she worked with my budget. I have never placed a large floral order, and was not sure what I could afford, she was clear and adjusted things to make it work for us. I was OBSESSED with our flowers! It was the best money we spent, I could have looked at them all day long. I can't recommend her enough! Based on her portfolio she has a wide range of skills and she is able to create what you want. I can't thank her enough, or recommend her enough. Truly a great vendor to work with! #dreamteam -

Betsy D. Sent on 07/21/2019Truly Great Floral Designer and Day-of Coordinator
Jelena Krzeszowski of JBK Weddings and Events provided the perfect floral design for my daughter’s wedding, creating the desired look and feel while respecting our budget. Jelena was also the ideal day-of coordinator. She spoke and met with my daughter and the on-site event coordinator repeatedly, ensuring that all planners were on the same page and that the bride’s wishes were clearly understood. Jelena also produced an easy to understand timeline for the bridal party and the families.
During the rehearsal, Jelena lent her expertise to the flow of the ceremony. Then, on the day of the wedding, Jelena masterfully managed the floral arrangements in the ceremony and event spaces, including “curtains” of greenery that required a ladder and some level of gymnastics. Her expert timing ensured that she would be available to the bridal party, supplying encouragement and assurance, as well as Band-Aids and moleskin for blisters caused by new shoes.
Throughout the wedding day, Jelena impressed me with her ability to accommodate the schedule shifts that take place because folks will be folks with confidence and grace. At the same time, she kept everything moving along so that key moments, such as the cutting of the cake, toasts and first dance, occurred without hurry. The balance she achieved allowed the bride, groom and their families to simply enjoy the day.
Thank you, Jelena! You are truly great at what you do!

Tara W. Sent on 07/27/2019Best money we spent
You can have the best caterer, dj, photographer and wedding party but if you can’t get them all coordinated, something is bound to go wrong. Jelena will make sure that doesn’t happen. What she will do is make sure your day is as stress-free as possible and that you can focus on having a good time. What are you waiting for? The reviews speak for themselves. Her work and attention to detail was worth every penny and we could not recommend Jelena enough. Our wedding was everything we wanted and if something went wrong, we didn’t know about it. From the minute we met her, we knew she was the right planner for us. Once we handed over contact info for our vendors and wedding party, Jelena completely took the reins and made sure everything was handled. And, she’s super cool and prepared for everything- we needed some last minute dress fixes as well as had a guest that needed some outfit repairs after dancing too much. Jelena was there and took care of things fast and discreetly. She was so easy to work with that it almost made me nervous that we weren’t stressed. She’s a rock star and I will definitely use her for my next wedding! -
Oishee Sent on 08/20/2018Jelena and her team did a wonderful job with our wedding flowers. Initially when we met with her we didn’t really know how much and what kind of flowers we envisioned. Jelena worked with us to come up with a design that matched our taste, budget, and preference. Jelena was hardworking and professional and helped us out even though we had many last minute changes. The end product was absolutely gorgeous in its simplicity and I had multiple people saying how much they specifically loved the centerpieces and amazing garland she made for our gazebo. We thank Jelena very much for her patience and creative talent and we could not have been happier!

Elena Sent on 11/27/2016Jelena was simply amazing and definitely the best choice we made during our wedding planning. Originally, we hired her to do the flowers for our wedding and then after a few months we added on day-of-coordinating. Jelena immediately understood our vision and was so flexible and helpful throughout the process. Not to mention all the beautiful decor items she has to rent, I seriously felt like a kid in a candy store! And the flowers...they were simply amazing! Better than I could have imagined. She saved us so much stress on the day of and our wedding was prefect, flowed beautifully, and we didn't have a worry in the world. I would highly recommend Jelena as a florist and wedding day coordinator. -
