    The Best Decision You Can Make

    Words cannot express how grateful we are to Jenni and Taylor for organizing the perfect wedding day for us. From the moment we met Jenni, we knew that she was the right planner for us, and going with her and her team was by far the most important decision we made. At first, we thought we could plan our wedding on our own, but as busy early-career professionals, we quickly realized we needed someone we could trust completely to carry out our vision without too much oversight. Jenni offered exactly that. From our first meeting, we felt listened to and could tell that she genuinely understood what we wanted out of the wedding and knew exactly how to handle the mountain of tasks necessary to make that vision a reality. Throughout the planning process, Jenni made it possible for us to plug into and out of planning as needed, and at every check-in, we were amazed by how much progress she made. It was not uncommon for us to raise questions or needs at these check-ins only for her to tell us that she had anticipated them and handled them exactly how we would’ve wanted.

    Without Jenni, we simply could not have had the wedding we had. Since Jenni is so experienced and beloved by vendors and venues she’s worked with, she was able to curate a team that perfectly matched our taste. There’s no way we would’ve found our venue—which was nothing short of magical—without Jenni, because the owners of the venue don’t host many weddings but have a personal relationship to Jenni, so the venue is not something generic you would find on Google or wedding venue sites. Also, all of our vendors had worked with Jenni before and, as a result, had either worked with each other or at the venue before. This made the wedding that much better because the vendors were comfortable and familiar with each other and with the venue, so they could better focus on their work and have fun while doing so. If you want a wedding that uniquely reflects your relationship, choose Jenni, who has the connections to make that possible. If it’s any indication, every vendor we worked with praised Jenni and told us how lucky we were to have the best wedding planner.

    Nothing phased Jenni. She is incredibly organized and a spreadsheet master. Having attended our share of weddings as guests, we have definitely come across planners that seemed stressed and overwhelmed. Jenni is the complete opposite of that. Jenni handled everything that came our way with grace, levity, and a smile. The day before our wedding, Jenni remarked that “Nothing scares me anymore,” and that is 100% true from everything we observed. At no point throughout the planning process or the wedding did Jenni make us feel stressed. She only ever made us feel calmer because we knew that the wedding was in good hands and that we did not need to worry.

    What makes Jenni special is that she is also the loveliest person on top of being a master wedding planner. You can tell that she loves her work and genuinely cares for her clients. During the rehearsal and wedding, she made the effort to speak with our family members and friends, and everyone loved her instantly and could tell that the wedding was going to be incredible in her capable hands. Having her as a wedding planner often felt like having an old friend taking care of things for you.

    We sincerely cannot imagine a better wedding planner than Jenni. The smartest wedding planning decision you can make is to hire Jenni and her team. Trust us, you won’t regret it!

    Wonderful wedding planner

    Jenni is a wedding magician. She designed and planned our wedding weekend events and truly exceeded all of our expectations. During the planning process, she guided us through venue shopping, vendor options, and was responsive to all of our requests and questions. She took our design inspiration and executed it in such a beautiful way. On the day-of, she took care of every single detail and we were able to enjoy the day without any stress. When our officiant had to unexpectedly cancel two hours before the reception, Jenni smoothly handled the crisis and made sure the ceremony was executed flawlessly despite the change in plans. Not only is she a planning professional, she is a lovely person! We would recommend Jenni and her team to anyone planning a wedding, they will make your dreams come true.

    Best decision we made!

    We found Jenni late into our planning process after having issues with our original planner. With less than a year until the wedding we were stressed about making a change but it was the best decision we could have possibly made for our wedding. Previously we felt like our planner was too busy for us and that we were just another thing on her list that she could hardly remember anything about us, but with Jenni it felt like every time we met, or even between meetings just through texts or emails, that we were the center of her attention. She had every detail handled even those that we had no idea to think about. She took our loosely scattered wedding plans and put them together flawlessly to create our perfect wedding. We had a destination wedding weekend with multiple events, and my husband and I spent the whole weekend asking each other if we could even imagine what the weekend would be like without Jenni and thanking God we decided to make the switch! Jenni was more than just a dedicated and hands on planner/coordinator, she’s also a talented artist/designer and, the best part, a great friend to spend time with. She made multiple trips to Cabo, where our wedding was, to be sure things were perfect despite us not being able to be there.

    I knew nothing about wedding planning when we started, and I have no eye for design or even planning whatsoever, but if I have any advice for those starting to plan it is that a wedding planner is by far the most important factor. Having worked with a subpar planner and then switching to Jenni I have first hand experience in planning under both circumstances and would say that the best decision we made for our wedding is making the switch.
    Jenni is truly dedicated to her clients and their events, and I could not recommend anyone more highly!

    There is No Planner in the World Quite Like Jenni Grubba

    Nearly 3 months out from our wedding and I finally have the head space to fully articulate the magic Jenni helped us create for our 3-day wedding weekend.

    It wasn’t just a wedding, it was a spiritual, emotional, boogie-filled festival! Jenni makes your vision happen. She is enormously helpful in the months and weeks leading up. Where Jenni really shines is making things happen on the ground. She is direct, creative, professional, intuitive, and a jack-of-all-trades!

    She was handing our officiant tissues to hand my husband and I at the exact moment we needed them mid-ceremony. She was behind-the-scenes making magic happen to making not 1 but 6 (!!!) events and locations come to life in a way that completely blew us away. This included a celestial space cowboy evening, solar eclipse viewing party, the most gorgeous ceremony site I’ve ever seen (word to the wise: use Jenni’s incredible parasols to make your ceremony the most magical), a string light dinner straight out of a woodland fairytale, disco reception, and epic desert rave after party. This woman is incredible. Also her assistant Taylor is just as on it as Jenni.

    Jenni + Tay are the most loving, warm, talented and exceptional humans. Hire them. They will so easily become family.

    Jenni is amazing

    Jenni truly is an amazing person and wedding planner! We are east coast based and worked with Jenni remotely while she planned our June 2023 California wedding which included 3 events, each with a different vibe and she nailed them all.

    Right from the beginning it was clear that Jenni is organized, creative, energetic and infectiously positive. She has great relationships with tons of venues and vendors and brought together an amazing team to support our wedding weekend. These relationships were tested and showed their strength when our original venue flooded 6 months before our wedding date. Jenni immediately calmed our nerves and was a badass replanning our ceremony and reception for a new venue, keeping all of our original vendors on board.

    We cannot imagine what our wedding would have been without Jenni and cannot stop singing her praises and recommending her. If you are planning a wedding, do yourself a favor and let Jenni plan a perfect wedding for you!

    Could not have asked for a better wedding planner!

    Jenni is an incredible wedding planner and we could not have been luckier to find her! She helped us find a gorgeous venue that fit our aesthetic preferences which we probably would have otherwise overlooked. She also works with a great team of vendors who know and trust her and importantly are familiar with and have worked with each other in the past which really helped bring positive good energy on the day of the wedding. Throughout the whole process she never dropped the ball, was very responsive to communications yet not overbearing and was always happy to chat if we had any questions. She also did a lot of administrative work behind the scenes which we really appreciated. The day of our wedding could not run have run smoother -- we actually ran ahead of schedule for most of the day which is unheard of! Thank you Jenni for helping us plan the wedding of our lifetime!

    Jenni is the best!

    We couldn't have been luckier than having Jenni as our wedding planner. From the moment we had our first conversation, her energy and enthusiasm convinced us we'd found a gem.

    Jenni took the time to understand our vision for the wedding and executed on all planning and creative design from there. She exceeded our wildest expectations by turning our vision into a breathtaking reality. Her creativity, detail-orientation, and seamless execution ensured our day was flawless.

    Communication with Jenni throughout the planning process was impeccable; her rapid response time made us feel like a top priority.

    Our guests have been raving about our amazing wedding, and we owe it all to Jenni's expertise. Her industry connections, creativity, and genuine care for her clients set her apart. She's a wedding magician who turns dreams into reality.

    We wholeheartedly recommend Jenni Grubba to anyone in need of a planner. Jenni, you made our special day more beautiful than we could have ever imagined, and we can't thank you enough!

    Years of work together

    Jenni worked with us for several years planning our wedding, originally disrupted by the pandemic, so we have unusually deep experience with her. She exceeded our expectations in every way. The team of vendors and relationships that she has curated highlight her ability to create a collaborative and joy-filled environment. This was especially important because our wedding was a full weekend of glamping on our mendocino property- she handled everything from coordinating arrivals of 140 people on a one-way driveway, three days of catering and several musical acts. Jenni always kept an upbeat attitude, behaved professionally and completely handled all details. Neither my husband nor I had to address anything during the weekend. I am hopeful I can work with Jenni again on a celebratory event with all of our friends.

    Team Jenni!

    It has taken me a while to write a review for Jenni because I am having the hard time to find the words to express how INCREDIBLE Jenni was not only as a planner, but as a friend, throughout the entire wedding planning process. I am truly SO grateful to have worked with Jenni for my wedding. She was organized, helpful and creative throughout the planning process. I can be indecisive and I really appreciated that Jenni was honest and open with me and helped me stay focused to make decisions.

    Jenni also designed my wedding, which I would do over and over again. Not only does she have an incredible taste level, but she knows exactly how to make a wedding unique and special, which is exactly what I told her I wanted when we started working together. Even months after my wedding, I still hear from friends & family how unique and beautiful my wedding was and I owe it all to Jenni.

    I was told by peers to be ready for something unexpected to happen on my wedding day, but not with Jenni! Everything on the wedding day was seamless and smooth! Even when my strap on my dress unexpectedly broke, Jenni was there to sew it right back on (she even secured the other strap to make sure it didn’t happen again!). She kept me calm and collected throughout the entire day!

    I also want to shout out Taylor, Jenni’s assistant, who is just as wonderful as Jenni. The two of them are a dynamic duo and I am so lucky to have worked with them!

    I would 1000x work with Jenni again and recommend her to anyone & everyone I know! Thank you to Jenni and her incredible team for making my dream wedding come true!!

    An exceptionally good human who happens to plan amazing weddings

    Jenni planned our wedding(s) over the 2020-2021 wedding season. We originally picked Jenni as our planner because hers was the only planner screening conversation where we hung up the phone feeling more relaxed. She stuck with us through a wild wedding season -- our original date was in October 2020, and around May 2020, we made the call to shift the date to October 2021. No problem - Jenni handled it all seamlessly. I think all told Jenni actually planned 3 weddings for us (only 1.5 of which ended happening). She also served as an emotional pillar over a period of pandemic time and a set of decisions (postponements, don't invite grandma) that kinda sucked. Her strengths: grace under pressure, good vibes, "look and feel" that aligned with our own aesthetics, and vendor curation that both aligned with our vision as well as gave us some creative new ideas. Her team is so incredible; we've since referred them to our friends. It was very important to us to have a wedding that shared what we loved about San Francisco and California with our guests, and she did that exceptionally well. We strongly recommend her to you. You won't regret the decision.

    Jenni is the best!

    What can we even say about Jenni? We got engaged while living in MA and before we even knew we'd be moving to the west coast, we decided we wanted to get married in Cal's neck of the woods, in the Bay Area. Jenni gave us such peace of mind planning our wedding from across the country. She also took the unique challenges of our venue and completely made it all work seamlessly. After giving Jenni our design board, we kinda just said, "go for it!" and boy, are we so glad we did. Jenni took our vision and made it come to life in a way we could never have imagined or done ourselves. We're so so happy we went with Jenni and her team. We had the best day of our lives!

    above and beyond

    Jenni is, in a word, incredible. We hired her for full planning for our wedding weekend and thank god we did! From the beginning, she gave us much needed structure, perspective and advice and we knew we were in good hands. We ended up postponing our wedding due to the pandemic and she made it simple and stress-free. Leading up to the wedding, she checked in with us to keep us on task and organized. She heard our design ideas and preferences and provided examples that were aesthetically spot on. And behind the scenes, she took care of ALL the rentals, insurance, coordination with vendors, etc. We also had a last minute pivot of our rehearsal dinner plans and she and her team stepped in and 100% saved the day - they found an amazing pizzeria nearby and slang our pizzas by themselves! But our wedding weekend is when Jenni's talents truly shone - she was our wedding fairy queen, quietly directing all of our vendors and making mayhem into magic. Everything went smoother than smooth and looked even more beautiful than we had dreamed of. She truly went above and beyond, in every sense of the phrase, and made us feel so taken care of and stress free so that we could fully and presently enjoy our wedding weekend. Beyond that, she and her team are as sweet as can be and were such a pleasure to have with us and our family over the weekend. Jenni is the real deal, an organizational rockstar with an excellent design eye and such a joy to work with. Thank you Jenni for making our wedding dreams a reality!

    Wedding Planner of Dreams

    Look know further than Jenni Grubba for your wedding planning needs. Why? Because she takes it to the next level. As a bride who had a Pinterest board, but hadn't been planning her wedding her whole life, Jenni took what I gave her and turned it into something beyond what I'd ever imagined. She's incredibly responsive, has an incredible team behind her and amazing connections in the industry. We had a few ups and downs during the planning process with other vendors, and her calmness really helped me relax. Our wedding turned out perfectly at the Fairmont, and I couldn't have asked for a better woman to execute an amazing day!

    Jenni is a wedding ninja

    On the day of, she was simultaneously everywhere and nowhere, making sure everything happened that was supposed to, on time, with no fuss. Her eye for decor is amazing; I had just the vaguest 'design inspiration' (avoid disposable flowers, go for greenery, potted plants, and succulents) which she turned into a beautiful and unconventional reality (primeval-looking green ferny bouquets, xeriscapey terracotta cacti and potted exotic flowers for the tables, a cake that looked like an olive tree was growing from inside it). Also, leading up to the wedding she communicated very clearly and was very accessible via text and email, and incorporated last-minute changes and requests without batting an eye. It's very clear that she's a seasoned professional, and if we had to do it again we would definitely hire Jenni. Highly recommended.

    Jenni is the BEST!

    Jenni and her team are AMAZING. Planning a wedding during COVID and fire evacuations was stressful, but Jenni was a calming force throughout the whole process. She has such an eye for the small details, knew when to create contingency plans, and masterfully worked with all of our vendors to create a semless weekend. Jenni is easy-going, incredibly fun to work with, and is a true breath of fresh air. Hiring Jenni was one of the best things we did for our wedding day - she made our weekend magical and we can't thank her enough!

    Greatest Wedding Planner Ever!

    Jenni Grubba Events helped my daughter and new son-in-law have the wedding of their dreams! Jenni was utterly fantastic in every way.

    Jenni is the best!

    We are Jenni's biggest fans. She planned us the most perfect wedding and every detail totally blew us away. After postponing our wedding due to Covid, Jenni was a calming and supportive presence despite the uncertainty. She kept our spirits high throughout the process and made us feel at ease. When our day finally arrived, it was more than we ever could have imagined. Jenni completely knocked it out of the park. We're convinced it was the best party that's ever been thrown. :) From her relationships with amazing vendors, to her ability to design and execute the most gorgeous wedding at our dream venue, to her positive attitude and sunshiney vibes, we were in such good hands with Jenni. We're so thankful we got to work with her. We couldn't have done it without her and her expert team.

    We love Jenni!

    Jenni Grubba was a truly phenomenal wedding planner (including logistical support, efficient coordination of vendors, design and implementation of pretty things, and emotional support)! We chose the full wedding and design package and the only regret of our whole wedding was not adding on Jenni’s full weekend wedding planning services. From our first conversation I knew that she would be fun and easy going yet also thorough and able to successfully create the wedding we envisioned. She made herself immediately and continuously available from small text questions, lengthier email discussions, to comprehensive phone conversations depending on our needs. Our most important choice was the venue, as we wanted to create a weekend of wedding events for our family and friends to gather and celebrate together onsite. She listened to our ideas, clarified with questions when needed, and set off to find the perfect spot. She completely understood and found us the most magical venue that was above and beyond our expectations! Then, based on our descriptions of our ideal wedding, she made personalized vendor recommendations. After we had explored their websites and such and picked our favorites, she reached out individually to connect us to vendors. Overall, Jenni made the vendor coordination process smooth so we could focus on the fun aspects of wedding planning. She then designed truly EXACTLY what we were hoping for to create our literal dream wedding that was beautiful beyond belief, completely stress-free and comfortable for guests, without a single mishap or catastrophe, amazingly well coordinated, and just a complete blast! The decorations were stunning, the food was delicious, and the DJ + musician combo was insanely awesome. Our guests raved throughout the entire weekend that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. Because Jenni had taken care of everything wedding related with ample time to spare, during the whole weekend we were able to focus on being with our friends, family, and each other. Being emotionally present was hugely impactful for us and enabled us to truly treasure all the details and moments. Now three months after the wedding family and friends continue to randomly text about how fun and beautiful it was. Jenni’s vendor recommendations could not have been better, her logistical planning and designing were superb, and her dedication and hard work ensured that we had a truly incredible experience. We will be forever infinitely grateful for Jenni!

    Don't get hitched without Jenni Grubba Events!

    Jenni put together the most magical wedding we could have imagined. We went into our 2019 engagement feeling completely unsure about what we wanted beyond a "low key fancy" event in Wine Country and operating with a slimmer budget than most Northern California couples (aka not six figures). Through countless Zoom calls, Jenni helped us build out our vision for a one-of-a-kind wedding ceremony and reception. She connected us with some of the best vendors in the business (Annamae Photo, Beauty on Set, Sounds Elevated and the So Good Photobooth, and Park Ave catering) and the dreamiest venue (thank you John and Laura!) to create a seamless event - even in the tumultuous backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic. Every detail - from the breathtaking arbor, bouquets, and florals, to the typesetting on the menus, and cheeky cocktail names - captured our vision for a stunning, fun, and grown-up wedding that didn't take itself too seriously. Thanks to Jenni and her team, we were able to fully enjoy our party without ever once worrying about the details. Everything was truly perfect, and countless wedding guests told us it was the best wedding they've ever attended. We will be recommending Jenni Grubba Events to anyone who is planning a wedding in the future. Thank you, Jenni, you are a marvel!

    Loved Jenni!

    Jenni was an absolute dream to work with on planning our wedding - especially through the ups and downs of the pandemic. What I most love about Jenni is her creative vision and the ability to deliver our inspiration / ideas in a really beautiful way within our budget. Jenni recommended and managed all our vendors, helped us plan for months and stay organized and executed the day of without a single hitch. She let us work on parts that we were passionate about and did a lot of heavy lifting without us in the weeds. She is warm and easy to work with and a great person to have as part of the team on a stressful and important day. Highly recommend working with Jenni!

    Dream Wedding Planner

    Over the course of 3 years (thank you COVID) Jenni went from wedding planner to friend and I couldn’t be more grateful! I must have looked at dozens of wedding planner websites and read what felt like a million reviews before setting up that initial phone call with Jen - I never looked back after that. She was beyond easy to work with and made destination wedding planning a virtually stress free process - not an easy feat. Then when COVID hit and we we were forced to come up with a whole new wedding game plan last minute she took the reigns and made that nightmare so much easier to handle. Fast forward to wedding day 2.0 and oh my gosh what a dream! I couldn’t have been happier - the day went so smoothly, I loved all the vendors she recommended and we ended up with a truly magical, intimate wedding. Jen - you really are the BEST, anyone planning their future wedding would be lucky to have you!

    Micro-Wedding Master!

    Highly recommend Jenni, she pulled together my micro-wedding at our home and it could not have been more perfect. The prep and day was seamless, she is all over every little detail and she is super creative/talented with design and floral.. Thank you Jenni!

    Jenni is amazing!

    Jenni will have your back! Imagine trying to plan and execute a wedding in 2020…impossible, right? Not if Jenni is on your side. When we originally started thinking about planning our wedding it was before the pandemic hit. We did our best to find a location and get the ball rolling but quickly realized we needed some help. When we found Jenni’s website online, read about her, and saw the images of the amazing weddings she’d done before we were hooked. There was something so personal and lovely about each of those events that we knew she was the right planner for us. When the pandemic took hold, she was right there keeping us calm and assuring us that she would be our planner no matter when our wedding took place. Jenni helped us come up with a Plan B…and that Plan B was amazing! Our wedding was very personal to us. It was beautiful and elegant in a non-fussy but still stunning kind of way. I can’t tell you how many compliments we received from the small group of family and friends that attended. We heard over and over that the wedding was beautiful and intimate. We wanted everyone at the wedding to see and feel how much we loved one another, and Jenni created the perfect setting to let that shine through. She had every detail covered. It was magic!

    Thank you!!!

    Where do I even start with Jenni? She is absolutely the BEST wedding planner and does anything and everything she can for her clients. We initially hired her for our wedding in August of 2020 but when the pandemic hit, pivoted to a last minute microwedding instead. Jenni walked us through every step and went through multiple plan reiterations due to the pandemic and fires. In the end, she ended up flying to us to create the most magical, intimate, dreamy ceremony we could ever imagine - helping us with everything from hand making my bouquet to designing our table for our small dinner that evening. Jenni is truly amazing and such a talented, kind soul. She was incredibly professional and compassionate with everything we threw at her and I would 10000% recommend her for any wedding - big or small. Thank you, Jenni!!

    Love working together!

    I work at Dart Collective and we've worked with Jenni Grubba on multiple events and always enjoy ourselves. It’s not everyday that you work with someone like Jenni -- she has a refreshing and uniquely detailed eye for design which invariably creates a magnificent and beautiful place for us to work. She's consistently equal parts professional and fun, which aligns with what we aim to provide in our musical performances for every event. Needless to say, we always look forward to working events with her and her team. Jenni has the chops to execute any vision and work with all stylistic concepts.

    Amazing elopement!

    Wow! Jenni was amazing on relatively short notice. When our Italian wedding was cancelled, she IMMEDIATELY pivoted to plan us the elopement of our dreams in Northern California on a cliff overlooking the ocean. Every detail was perfect- right down to the beautiful ceremony, the flowers, the location and all the people that helped make it wonderful. Hire Jenni today -whether an intimate elopement or a larger group - she’s got you covered!
    Everything was pure magic.

    Jenni Grubba Events is AMAZING!

    Jenni Grubba Events, what can I say. From beginning to end, Jenni has that special way to warm your soul. The gifts of talent and vision in which she possesses are like no other. Jenni invests in herself by traveling the globe, learning from the best of the best in this industry to level up with each and every event she takes on. That alone is showcases just how determined she is to provide her clients with the most stunning visuals which make each and every event fresh, special, timeless, and with a hint of magic. She wholeheartedly LOVES her clients and will do everything in her power to make their experience unforgettable. From the first time I got to work with her years ago, until this day, I always feel like I am taken care of, and that just as a vendor. The feedback that I receive time and time again from my clients is that they also felt taken care of. So I know first hand the care and qualities are in unison from vendor to client which is such a rarity. Jenni is just that special person that will make your event dreams come true, and people will talk about it for the ages that come. It's always such a pleasure to always work with Jenni, and I cannot recommend her enough. Just hire her already!

    Pythian House Cottage/private venue

    I was a bride, and now a grandmother...and venue owner. ..committed to supporting dreams!

    It is rare when you have an opportunity to work with people you would choose to bring into your own family! Jenni is one of life’s little gems…who “gets it”...and gets it done!! She is a sweet, gentle whirling dervish of a surprise that comes so unexpected in these days of “cookie cutter“ weddings! She is a true breath of fresh air, a creative and magical force, professional, sensitive, committed, and personal. Her attention to detail is equally matched by her whimsical creativity…always a joy to work with!

    Best Wedding Planner Ever!

    Jenni is such an incredible joy to work with! As a florist in this industry, I work with many Planners and I just can't say enough good things about her and all she does, not just for her clients, but also for all the vendors she works with. She has an eye for design and the happiest, and stress-free attitude which is a dream come true on wedding day! Her attention to detail and the care and attention she gives to each client is amazing! I highly recommend Jenni Grubba for all your planning needs!

    Best Planner Evz

    Jenni is simply the best. My now wife and I are in the wedding business. I am a DJ, and she runs a photo booth company. We met Jenni at a Weddingwire event and then worked an actual wedding together in Yosemite. When we decided to tie the knot, we wanted Someone professional but not stuffy, Someone who was on top of it but not stressed. We hired Jenni because we love her style, attention to detail, and laid back attitude. Not only did she officiate our elopement in The Bay, but we also flew her down to Mexico to plan our destination wedding. She crushed it at both! She is now our bestie, and we love her like family. Hire her now and don’t think twice.

    Best wedding planner ever!

    When I started to plan my wedding I was initially a bit reluctant to get a wedding planner but I am so incredibly glad that I got to work with Jenni for my big day! Our wedding was in San Francisco this past August and had approximately 65 people in attendance. There were a lot of moving parts to the day: a ceremony at SF City Hall, a second line brass band parade, a multi-stop city tour followed by dinner and a reception at an antique store. Amazingly everything went off without a hitch and I have Jenni to thank for coordinating everything behind the scenes. From the very start of planning Jenni made sure that everything was taken care of: timelines were set, insurance was sorted out and potential vendors and rentals were identified. She provided useful spreadsheets and guided me trough the process of budget tracking, venue research and even seating charts. She has a wonderful vendor list and I was extremely impressed with every vendor she recommended. On the big day, Jenni was kind enough to print our wedding signage and even made a beautiful frame out of reclaimed wood for our welcome sign (it's currently hanging up in our house!) Overall, Jenni blew me away with her abilities and was an overall pleasure to work with! Thank you, Jenni!

    Jenni made my daugther's wedding perfect!

    When we decided to hire Jenni of Jenni Grubba Events, I was not sure whether it was a good idea. Why do we need a wedding planner? Can’t we do these little things between ourselves and our army of friends? But after the event I can tell anyone planning for a child’s wedding, don’t even think of executing a streamlined wonderful event without a good wedding planner. And Jenni is not just good, she is extremely good wedding planner. Everything went through without a single hitch and everyone including the about 300 guests loved every minute of it. Till today almost 6 months after the event we hear from our family and friends who attended the wedding that day, what a well-organized event it was. They don’t know how much Jenni’s competency and patience make that possible. Thank you, Jenni.

    Perfect wedding weekend (mostly) because of Jenni Grubba!

    We had the perfect wedding (for us) and we have Jenni Grubba to thank! We approached the weekend totally stress free. In the lead up, Jenni had an easy approach to the decisions that needed to be made and a great feel for what we wanted. She became a trusted friend in the whole process and, because of her attention to detail and firm handle on all the particulars, we got to be amazed and even a little surprised about how it all came together. The design, the florals, and all the vendors were perfect because of her.

    Our wedding was a full destination weekend for 100 guests in Northern California and we worked with Jenni for about a year in advance. We live in Chicago and didn't have much time to plan details. But, we also have a pretty particular design aesthetic. So, it was important that we find someone who understood our vibe and had taste that we trusted. We knew we couldn't be too hands on and finding and hiring Jenni was the first, most important decision we made. Her taste is amazing, her manner is easy-going and her confidence is totally calming.

    Every decision after hiring her had an easy pace. She gave us options to explore when we wanted them (the venue and the photographer) and, as we got to know each other better, made strong recommendations where we wanted something particular (the DJ and sound design and hair/make-up.) She focused us on the stuff that we needed to do and took care of lots of details that we didn't need to focus on. The result was the weekend we had dreamed of with (almost) no stress along along the way.

    It was a once-in-a-lifetime event and we are incredibly grateful that Jenni made it happen so gracefully and easily.

    Simply Fantastic!

    This past August we held the most epic wedding and Wedding Festival Weekend for 150 guests. The venue was remote and that required the services of a top notch wedding planner. We hired Jenni Grubba and all of our wedding weekend dreams came true. I have never met a more hard working creative ‘can-do’ woman, than Jenni. She kept us on track with planning throughout the year that we worked together, culling, interviewing and contracting all of our vendors through her relationships. She kept positive when inevitable challenges arose which was so helpful. When the wedding was upon us, she was all calm exterior and high energy interior. She’s capable of handling a remarkable amount of details, individuals and situations, with an easy-going confidence that puts bride and bride’s parents at ease and allows them to enjoy the important weekend along with their family and guests. And besides all of her strong capabilities of working with budgets, families, venues and vendors- she’s a fun person! We looked forward to our planned calls and missed her when the wedding was over and we were reminiscing over the beautiful images!

    Excellent planning of a flawless wedding

    Jenni was an outstanding wedding planner. She handled everything we asked her to handle, which was probably more than she bargained for, with poise and complete competence. Maybe more importantly, when we got stressed out and overwhelmed by all the wedding stuff (you will too, unfortunately), Jenni was always there to talk us down and keep us grounded, reassuring us that we were on schedule and everything was going to be fine.

    Our wedding was particularly difficult for a few reasons. For one, we had to plan two different ceremonies (one Indian and one western) on the same day, one in the morning and one in the evening. This involved different sets of decorations in different locations, dealing with different lunch and dinner caterers, and wrangling guests and the wedding party twice. For another, our wedding was in a fairly difficult location (OVY Camp, can’t recommend it enough). Jenni had to help us get all the food, drinks, and guests to our camp out in the woods.

    Despite all the complications, our wedding went off without a hitch. It was beautifully decorated by Jenni and her assistant and choreographed to perfection. We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding and Jenni made that possible. We can’t recommend her enough.

    Best Planner EVER!!!

    Jenni is the truly the most amazing wedding planner, I could not imagine putting my very complex wedding in the hands of anyone else and having it go has smoothly as it went. I very highly recommend you book her ASAP because she will make your wildest wedding dreams come true. My husband and I wanted a festival wedding in the woods for three full days so its safe to say there were a lot of moving parts and complexities involved in planning. Jenni got our vision from the very beginning and worked hard to make it happen exactly the way we wanted it to. All of her vendors are amazing and easy to work with which is important in the process. When it came to the wedding weekend, she worked incredibly hard to make sure everything was in it's place and all the pieces flowed smoothly. She even ran after my flower girl to help her take her shoes off before she walked down the aisle which avoided a possible flower girl melt down. She addressed issues quickly as they came up and even reminded me multiple times to eat and drink water, which trust me, you'll need the reminder. She also designed the place settings which were stunning, and even more beautiful than I could have imagined. Throughout the weekend she had a positive attitude which helped me feel at ease and most importantly, I felt that I could completely trust my special weekend in her hands. I very rarely like to use this word but honestly my wedding was perfect, and so much of that is thanks to Jenni. Beyond being incredibly good at what she does, she's an all around awesome and fun person to be around and both my husband and I now consider her a friend. You'll be incredibly lucky if you get her as your planner!

    Amazing Service!

    I can not begin to tell you how great Jenni is! She was very professional and friendly throughout our time together. I was dealing with an event planner at our reception location who was not great at communicating and was putting a great deal of stress on me and my husband and Jenni, hired on as a day of coordinator for the set up of our reception venue, came in and made us feel completely at ease that all would be taken care of. She had to rejig some decor, as our floral arrangements were not working where we had originally wanted to place them, and the results were breathtaking! I can not speak highly enough of her! As I said before we hired her for solely day of support, but if we could go back and do it again we would have hired her on to plan everything.

    Best wedding planner ever

    Jenni is PHENOMENAL. Not only did she make our wedding absolutely stunning and smoothe, she got up before the sun to make it happen. My husband and I had a quick engagement, so I was in a mild panic when I called Jenni asking her for partial wedding planning four months out from the day. She was immediately warm and confident and made me feel like everything was going to be okay. No, not okay, fabulous. Her ideas and insights made the event truly special. And her flowers were honestly the most beautiful and interesting I've seen. All day people were coming up to me telling me that this was the most beautiful wedding that had ever been to, and I had to tell them that all the credit belonged to Jenni. Do yourself a favor and stop shopping for wedding planners. You've found the best one!

    Wonderful planner - wish we found her sooner!

    Jenni was fantastic to work with! She helped us plan our wedding, provided us with day-of coordination, and more! My husband and I really thought we'd be able to plan and coordinate our 70-person wedding ourselves, but realized we needed help only a couple months before the wedding. We were super lucky to find Jenni as our wedding date was approaching quickly and we still needed to nail down several details. Jenni was a dream to work with, exuding calm and confidence (despite being so close to the wedding!), providing excellent service and advice on what we asked of her, and also going above and beyond to make up for the shortcomings of other vendors. Jenni smoothed over issues with our venue that we weren’t able to resolve after months of back-and-forth with our venue’s on-site coordinators; she made insightful suggestions that helped us perfect our day-of plans. Jenni is also a very talented calligrapher – we weren't sure we had time to add in a welcome sign, but Jenni personally created the beautiful calligraphy signage for us! Not only did Jenni do a fantastic job, but we also loved every interaction we had with her. She’s a great person and loves what she does. Highly recommend for any of your wedding planning needs!

    Jenni is the best

    We were referred to Jenni by our wedding venue, and we're so glad we went with her. Jenni's knowledge of the venue was so impressive and her relationships with the other vendors made everything so much easier. We found her tools during the planning process to be invaluable and looked forward to our phone dates. She had great ideas and at the same time always listened to our vision and worked with us to make it happen. And when the weekend came - we felt 300% supported. Honestly we didn't lift a finger. The execution was flawless and the weekend so seamless - it was magical. I won't pretend for a second that Jenni and her team weren't a HUGE reason for that. It was one of the best decisions we made to have them there. We felt so taken care of. We're still buzzing about the weekend and so grateful for Jenni. Wish we were going to move back to Oakland already so we could hang out - an added bonus is that she's a great person and a ton of fun.

    Jenni is the best!

    Jenni was absolutely amazing! We had a 175-person wedding at Gallery 308 in Fort Mason. There were things we knew we could handle on our own, but things like venue insurance, hiring and coordinating rentals for two locations, creating a timeline for the weekend, and coordinating all the vendors the weekend of seemed over our heads. Jenni dealt with all of it and we couldn't have done it without her. Plus she is a joy of a person to work with!

    Jenni can do it all!

    I’m so glad that I found Jenni! My husband and I are from Utah. We wanted to have a very small, casual ceremony on Baker Beach, San Francisco and thought we’d just hire Jenni to be the officiant. However, as I started to figure our chairs, finding the right spot on the beach, corralling my family, meeting the photographer, etc I started to worry about how all these pieces would fall into place. I reached out to Jenni about being our wedding planner and thank goodness she took over. It made all the difference having her manage the details, that way I could just focus on the exciting part of getting married.

    Jenni really can do it all because she did the flowers for the beach and my bouquet and they were absolutely perfect but what really set her apart was the ceremony that she wrote for us. My husband and I weren’t interested in writing our own vows but in just a few conversations back and forth Jenni managed to write and perform an unforgettable ceremony that truly captured who we were, our relationship and our love. Again, I’m so glad that I found Jenni and I would recommend her to anyone.

    Professional

    I run a wedding venue where Jenni has coordinated several weddings over the last year or so. She is the real deal! Jenni can handle anything and everything to do with weddings. Jenni has got to be one of the most hands on wedding coordinators out there. It is obvious that Jenni deeply cares about her clients. She is consistent, reliable, and flexible. Jenni operates with professionalism and urgency while maintaining a relaxed and down-to-earth approach. She will make your wedding planning experience fun and your wedding day smooth and beautiful.

    Jenni was absolutely fantastic! We could not have pulled off our wedding weekend without her. She helped us with all aspects of the planning, and took care of all of our flowers and decorations for a very reasonable price! She was available whenever we needed to talk to her about planning, and has an incredible taste for decorations. She took care of all of the minor details, and truly gave us the ability to not stress and to enjoy our wedding. She went above and beyond with the floral and decorations. I even caught her foraging around the venue (in Yosemite) to find native wildflowers as decorations, which I absolutely loved! She was so wonderful and we miss working with her already. We couldn't ask for a better planner/florist who is so organized, caring and down to earth. She was the best!

    Jenni was the wedding planner for our son’s wedding on September 15, 2018 at a sprawling outdoor venue near Half Moon Bay, California. She was phenomenal! The wedding was an entire weekend of celebration and the wedding day included 4 events in 4 separate locations at the large venue. Each portion of the wedding celebration was absolutely lovely and came off without a single glitch. Jenni was on site from early morning until late at night doing anything and everything to help, in addition to coordinating every detail. Her calm demeanor and superb management skills were so very reassuring for all of us involved in the wedding. I cannot say enough for Jenni’s skills as a wedding planner and as an all-around charming person. She was an absolute delight and I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone!!

    The couple getting married at our venue, Evergreen Lodge, hired Jenni as their wedding planner. As the Groups and Events Manager to Evergreen I had the pleasure working alongside with Jenni to coordinate details between the lodge and the couple. She was absolutely wonderful to work with. I appreciated that she responded to my questions in a timely manner, kept up with the timeline, and treated our venue and staff with respect. It's a huge plus that she also provided and executed the floral arrangements. Jenni's personality is quite charming and we all felt like she has been apart of our team since day one. I highly recommend couples to hire her for their big day. She will go above and beyond to make it special.

    We hired Jenni as a month-of coordinator for our weekend wedding. We live out of the country so our regular consultations with Jenni via Skype were tremendously helpful to the planning process. She was attentive to our requests and provided expertise in identifying what could make our wedding weekend even better. In addition to handling the typical coordinator tasks, she made our beautiful floral decorations for the chapel and served as our officiant. We were very comfortable with Jenni’s counsel and because she knew us so well we asked her to be the officiant, to which she gladly agreed. Jenni’s diligence carried through the end of the wedding. She remained calm and collected despite being engaged in so many aspects of our wedding and working non-stop behind the scenes. We would recommend Jenni Grubba to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and caring wedding coordinator who is capable of making your special day stress-free.

    Many thanks to Jenni Grubba

    My daughter found Jenni. First big decision she made (after saying yes!) for her wedding planning, so glad she did. The wedding was a weekend event in Redding, CA - yep, in the range of the Carr fire. The logistics were difficult before the fire, but Jenni didn’t let a fire get in the way of seeing that my daughter and her fiancé had the wedding of their dreams. Everything was wonderful. Jenni brought my daughter’s vision for her wedding to life. I can’t say enough about how beautiful the ceremony and reception were, and by the way, on a very average budget. Jenni coordinated everything, there were no unhappy surprises, everything all weekend from food to flowers to photo booth to bouncy tent (yup, a bouncy tent) was terrific. And despite the heat, Jenni was hands on all weekend, setting up, cleaning up, keeping everything/one moving on schedule. I highly recommend Jenni. The MOB

    If you’re reading endless reviews searching for a wedding planner that is intelligent, hard-working, tasteful, organized, funny, and an all-around great human being that will make your wedding unforgettably seamless and stress free - well, meet Jenni.

    My wife and I hired Jenni for full-service wedding planning one month after our engagement. We found her on a wedding website along with a few other planners with strong reputations. We reached out to all planners at the same time. Who was the first to respond? Of course, Jenni. This initial experience is a micro-chasm of who Jenni is. She has her **** together and pro-actively makes things happen. That what you need in a wedding planner. We knew immediately she was exactly what we were looking for.

    I won’t go into the hairy details, but like many weddings we experienced some unexpected problems the week of. Whereas if we had hired another planner or done things on our own we’d be drowning in anxiety and stress…Jenni simply took care of things. Quietly, professionally, and always with our best interests first. Her ability to navigate stressful or unexpected situations with a collected and calm mind brought peace to us. Jenni allowed us to focus on what actually matters - marrying the one you love and celebrating the moment with people who love you.

    We give Jenni a whole-hearted, 100% recommendation. Getting married is a deeply personal, intimate, exciting, and scary life event. When you make the leap, you will never regret having someone like Jenni at your side.

    Plan your wedding with Jenni! We are so thankful we chose to work with her to plan our wedding. We had a vision that wasn't easy to pull off--a three-day festival in the woods of northern California that our community of friends and family wouldn't forget, with a hundred guests staying with us, multiple meals and activities to take care of, and three different main site areas to plan, coordinate, and pull off. We set Jenni off on a complicated task, but she helped us think through every detail in advance and was willing to get creative to make any budget work -- she even offered to do things like designing and creating invitations, signs, and decorations herself to limit the cost burden on us -- and she did a great job with all of it.

    All that aside, Jenni truly shined during the wedding weekend itself. She coordinated with the many vendors, the venue so expertly that many of our guests marveled at how seamless every event went. Jenni also knew exactly how to take care of us during the weekend (for example, by bringing us dinner during the Friday night bbq when she noticed that neither of us had been able to break away), and when to make things happen behind the scenes. We only found out the next morning that she had arranged for more wine to be purchased and delivered DURING the event when she noticed that our guests were consuming our stores at a rapid pace. (We gave her the okay to take care of any such emergencies beforehand.) We now have memories forever and a new friend in Jenni!

    Jenni is absolutely amazing! She did such a wonderful job for us on our wedding! We hired Jenni for both partial planning and florals and both turned out perfectly. For the florals we had a beautiful wild flower theme with so much color that really made the wedding come alive. She also brought everything for the wedding together so perfectly. We were able to enjoy the day without having to worry about anything. It was truly perfect.

    If you want to win at weddings, Jenni will help you make it happen. We gave her some general ideas of what we wanted for our destination wedding in Portugal and she planned all of the amazing details, basically all we had to do was show up! She really made everything unbelievably successful and easy for us. Despite the location being halfway around the world with guests arriving from numerous states and countries, Jenni orchestrated all of the festivities smoothly and beautifully. You can really see industry experience and attention to detail show through how easy she makes it all look. I don't know how she does it, but that's why we hired her!

    Jenni is AMAZING! She planned the wedding of my best friend in Portugal and it was the most beautiful wedding I've ever (and probably will ever) attend. I have no idea how she coordinated everything from across the world, but the rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception, brunch--everything--was seamless. She thought of every possible detail and made sure the bride and bridal party were enjoying themselves at every moment. I've been to a few other weddings she's planned and this is not the exception. All of them are gorgeous, so well planned no one has to think, and always with special touches that make them stand out and feel personal to the couple. She will definitely be planning my wedding and everyone else should hire her too!

    Jenni took care of everything for our wedding. It was amazing to put everything in her hands, and know that it would be a beautiful, perfect celebration. We could really just take the time on our wedding day to spend time with our friends and family, without worrying about any one of the little things that need attention. Jenni coordinated with everyone to make sure they arrived, knew where to go, and had rides to and from the venue. Our guests had an amazing time (and also didn't have to worry or think about a thing!) This was particularly wonderful because it was everyone's first time in Portugal, and there are always things that go awry with a big group traveling to a new place. We loved our fairytale wedding, and we loved being able to truly enjoy our day with Jenni!

    We hired Jenni to do month-of coordination and floral for our wedding and we couldn't be happier! She was incredible - if there were any problems on our wedding day, I was/am completely unaware of it because she was on top of everything.

    For florals, I requested a massive, overflowing, colorful bouquet and what she made was even prettier than I could have imagined! She also made a stunning hanging floral arrangement that we used as a backdrop for the ceremony and reception. (Yes, she's so fabulous that she managed to move it from one site to another!)

    For a stress-free wedding, hire Jenni!

    After working in the wedding industry with Jenni for several years (my husband and I are wedding photographers), she was one of the first decisions we made when planning our own destination wedding in Sayulita, Mexico. Leading up to the wedding day she was excited, efficient, and extremely thoughtful in all planning. We even hired her to officiate our very intimate "stateside" legal marriage in my parent's kitchen - that's how much we trusted her and wanted her to be a part of our day. When it was time to head South for the wedding, Jenni traveled with us for the entire week, making sure all final details and any needs we had were taken care of - including for all of our family and friends. She adds a level of positive energy, level-headedness, and warmth to any situation. She expertly coordinated all of the moving parts and vendors, made sure we stayed on track with our timeline, and executed all of the beautiful little details that made the setting "ours" for the day. She even golf-carted around town playing the role of "nurse" when a few of our guests got sick - making sure everyone was well hydrated and medicated. All-in-all it just felt right to have her by our sides, and our family and friends couldn't agree more. She'll forever be a part of our community.

    It is truly difficult to summarize in just this short paragraph how dedicated, gracious, thoughtful, motivated, and passionate Jenni is about her work. She goes above and beyond what anyone could expect from even the best of planners. All we can say is take the time to meet her - you'll see what we mean within 30 seconds. Jenni is one-of-a-kind, and we're so proud to know her!

    Jenni was a huge asset in the success of our wedding day. She traveled all the way to Wisconsin to help us with multiple aspects such as writing our wedding ceremony, officiating, day-of coordination, print work design, etc. She was very thoughtful, meticulous, and made everything about the day super easy and enjoyable for us. We couldn't have done it without her and we would highly recommend her services to anyone for their event needs!

    Jenni did an awesome job as the month-of coordinator for my daughter’s wedding. She had everything in place, all the details handled. She also made beautiful flower arrangements, including bouquets, corsages, buttoniers, and table vases. The whole wedding and reception went so smoothly. It was wonderful! Thank you so much, Jenni!!!

    Jenni was incredibly awesome and helped us plan our wedding in March! Several months before, we had already chosen a venue that was perfect for what we wanted but involved a long contract with a lot of rules and regulations on how we could use the space, and we also needed to get a permit with the city to be able to hold our event outdoors on city property. This (and the rest of wedding planning) was more than a little overwhelming, so my fiance and I decided we definitely wanted someone to help us plan and double check all our planning work, handle a lot of the communication with all of the vendors, help us stay sane and not too stressed, etc. We set up a Skype consultation with her, and her experience with event planning in a lot of different spaces and experience with getting permits from various cities made us feel we'd be in good hands. We agreed it made the most sense for her to help as at the Partial Planning and Consultation level, and so while it meant we still planned the wedding and made it our own, she helped us out whenever we had questions or wanted advice.

    Aside from the expected wedding planning things, Jenni was an extra help because she:
    - helped us figure out all the insurance and permit paperwork
    - was responsive to email and all my random queries about what we should be doing
    - handled our dog during our portrait session when he wasn't going to be in the photograph (and even picked up after him!)
    - when I realized I really needed to give her all the escort cards and party favors to set up, she anticipated this and spontaneously appeared and asked if she could help out with those
    - generally made it much less stressful, and handled things gracefully whenever I got panicked about something

    In the end, the wedding went beautifully, and a big part of that was because of Jenni's hard work and timely anticipation of our needs.

    Many thanks to Jenni Grubba for providing week long support for my daughter and son in law’s destination wedding in Sayulita, Mexico! From arranging transportation with the Villa resort, interfacing with the staff and most all of the guests for the entire week, to the seamless background oversight on the big day, Jenni’s touch was experienced, personal and caring. Kudos for coming prepared for so many eventualities, Jenni! As Mother of the Bride, I was able to sit back and relax as this extraordinary day unfolded.

    I can't say enough wonderful things about Jenni. She's AMAZING!! She was the key reason that my wife and I felt relaxed on our wedding day. Thanks to Jenni, we were able to truly enjoy the day without worrying about details and problems that would inevitably arise.

    A couple months before our wedding, a close friend suggested that we hire a planner. We hadn't decided to do so, but our friend was insistent that we would enjoy ourselves more if we handed over the scheduling, vendor relationships, and details to someone other than a friend or family member. This turned out to be SO true and we are forever grateful to Jenni for making our day perfect. She even did some gorgeous last-minute caligraphy for our bar signs.

    Jenni is kind and sweet, incredibly organized, but also easy-going. We met a few event planners who honestly stressed us out. Jenni did just the opposite. She calmly took over the details that had been overwhelming us, and executed things perfectly.

    During our wedding and dinner reception, there were a few things that arose that Jenni dealt with quickly and quietly-- so much so that we didn't even know there were hiccups!

    My husband and I had the delight of working with Jenni to plan our wedding at Majestic Theater in Madison, Wisconsin in December 2015. Jenni was our wedding coordinator (aka the glue that held it all together). Charlie and I were living in NYC at the time and had to plan/coordinate our wedding from afar. Jenni was incredibly organized, responsive, and accommodating in the year leading up to our wedding day. She helped us communicate with all of the vendors and was invaluable to us for day of set-up and last minute changes. Jenni went above and beyond the role of a wedding coordinator - I remember flying into Madison on whim to wedding dress shop and we wanted to show the beautiful Majestic Theater to my future mother-in-law who had never been. I called Jenni that morning to ask if we could meet her in an hour to walk through the venue. She was more than happy to do so! I could go on and on with other examples of her mindfulness, integrity, and professionalism. Simply put – Jenni gets it done - and on the day of your wedding you want someone who gets it done all the while staying completely calm and poised. We could not recommend her enough!!

    Jenni was the wedding coordinator for our beautiful December wedding at the Majestic Theatre in Madison, Wisconsin. Jenni was absolutely fabulous! She maintained professionalism throughout the process, but also established a personal relationship with us. Knowing she was in charge helped us feel calm and reassured throughout the day. Jenni is also highly artistic and creative and assisted with design and provided recommendations. We truly loved working with Jenni and she helped to make our day that much more special. We highly recommend her! She's hard not to love :)

    Jenni is truly an extraordinary event planner. She planned our engagement party as well as our wedding on March of 2015 in Madison, WI. She has an incredible attention to detail, and took so much pride in every aspect of our big day, and every piece of the planning process.

    When you get married, you hear so many opinions, from so many people; it was nice to hear Jenni just tell us to listen to ourselves, and focus on OUR vision for what our big day should be. She took our vision and ran with it, and we couldn’t be happier with how our wedding turned out.

    Everything about our engagement party and wedding was so well organized and mapped out, it really eased so much tension for us. We felt like we were in such great hands the entire time which allowed us to really enjoy every moment, and be fully present during the most important day of our lives. She is great at dealing with all of the things that you either don't want to deal with, don't have the time for, or simply don't think about! All weddings/events have unexpected incidents that occur that you simply can’t plan for, where quick thinking to form a solution is necessary. I’m sure a few incidents arose on our big day, however we never heard about them – Jenni handles it like a ninja behind the scenes making sure to not let anything wreck your special day vibes ☺ She truly is a master event planner.

    We would highly recommend Jenni for any event you are planning! She's a gem!

    Jenni is absolutely amazing!!! We worked with Jenni for our wedding at the Majestic Theatre in Madison, WI. She handled everything with such ease and had an answer/idea for every question that came her way. I had NO stress the day of the wedding because I knew she was handling all the details before we arrived at the venue. I am so appreciative of her work and the result. She's also SUPER fun, friendly and professional all at the same time. I highly recommend Jenni for any event!

    I love working with Jenni. We're midway in the planning process of my wedding, and she's there (always before me!) every step of the way. She makes great judgment calls and has thought of everything, which I greatly appreciate because I'm more of a hands-off bride! She's handling all the paperwork, legal things and details. I can't wait to show up for my beautiful destination wedding in Portugal. I would absolutely book Jenni for any destination event! It's so easy and comfortable to work with her; she's truly making my wedding effortless and stress-free.

    After working with her on numerous weddings and events over her time at the Majestic, there is no person I would choose or trust more with my event planning needs than Jenni. Her organizational skills, warm personality, and attention to detail are second to none. Jenni is passionate and committed to the happiness and satisfaction of the bride and groom -- both clearly exemplified by her work product. Her creativity and drive, paired with a sheer love for her career, truly make Jenni stand out among those in her profession.

    My husband and I LOVED having our wedding reception at the Majestic and loved, loved, loved Jenni. She was the best person to work with out of all the people we encountered during the wedding planning process, better than I could have asked for, and one of the best decisions we made. We hired her for her extra services-we got her special package of picking up the decorations, decorating the place, as well as "running" our ceremony. She not only followed through on everything that needed to be taken care of, her decorating was beautiful, she anticipated our needs, made helpful suggestions, and really led us through the process in the ways we needed. On the other hand, we were self-sufficient and knew what we wanted in a lot of ways, so for those things she totally let us lead the way and followed our lead or stayed out of it. She was so attentive and intuitive in this way. I loved working with her every step of the way and loved having her there the day and night of. She knew what she was doing in not just the management of the event, but also in her interactions and people-skills (for example working with two sets of parents and lots of different people we put in charge of different things, rowdy guests, taking care of myself and my husband, etc.). EVERYONE that I talked to that worked with her loved her and was glad we hired her. She really made the day go smoothly and so I didn't have to even think about anything but enjoying myself. On the day of, I totally felt like I could trust her, didn't feel like I needed to do a thing, and she came through completely.

    Working with Jenni the last few years has been a great experience and she is truly missed here in the Madison area! She is professional, organized, detail-oriented, energetic, a go getter, and the list goes on! She will do whatever it takes to see an event go perfectly from start to finish. I would highly recommend Jenni to coordinate any event. Great works Jenni!

    We worked with Jenni for our wedding on August 16th, 2014 at the Majestic Theatre, and she was absolutely AMAZING‼! She’s a rock star! Jenni coordinated all of the day of arrangements for our venue and made sure that everything ran smoothly so that we could focus on our special day. During the entire process, we felt so relaxed and calm. Jenni was wonderful to talk with about wedding planning and just getting married in general. The event went so smoothly, we were just in awe. The caterer, beverage service, and other vendors moved around seamlessly at the event. Jenni handled guests and sought our input when needed, which was very minimal ;-) She was extremely professional, and our entire family loved having Jenni be a part of our event. We highly recommend hiring Jenni to plan and coordinate your special day! It is a decision you will not regret. We cannot think of the countless times over the past two-ish years we have recounted how wonderful she was with our family and guests. Jenni is truly talented and will help make your wedding day magical and relaxing.

    Wow, I honestly don't know where to begin! Jenni made planning my wedding from almost 500 miles away so easy. I felt comfortable and confident that Jenni would make sure everything got taken care of so I wouldn't have to worry. She was a master at taking my half formed ideas of what I wanted my wedding to be like and transform them into a beautiful, personal, and overall best night of my life! Even months later, I still have guests tell me how much fun they had at my wedding and I have Jenni to thank for that. I never doubted her for a second and she is worth her weight in gold (and then some)! Thanks, Jenni!

    Jenni knows what she's doing, even if you feel like you don't. She's assertive and takes care what needs to be taking care of efficiently and effectively, without making you feel like an idiot. Our wedding was the best day of our lives so far. :)

    We worked with Jenni for our wedding reception at the Majestic Theatre in Madison, WI. She ensured that our reception at the Majestic was perfect. She really pulled it all together for us, and we're incredibly grateful for her support and hard work! When we first met with Jenni at the venue, we were completely reassured and felt confident that she would be able to make our day go smoothly. She communicated with us consistently for over a year (between the time we booked the venue and our wedding day), and was reliable, responsive, and incredibly reassuring. She also did ALL of the set-up on the day of our wedding. A couple days before the wedding, she came to our home to pick up all of the decorations and items that needed to be at the venue. While we were busy enjoying our special day, she set everything up at the venue - candles, centerpieces, entry signs, gift table, string lights, etc. She also tore everything down, packing up all of our decorations, items, and gifts, and delivered them to us the next day. She made the venue look magical for our event, and used both her creative expertise AND our directions/vision to make everything perfect! Throughout it all, she was confident, calm, and reassuring. Jenni is professional, knows the wedding business, knows how to ease a bride's anxiety, and is truly trustworthy! I was an anxious bride and worried about all of the details - I really believe that her confidence and skills allowed me to be fully present to enjoy my special day! Also, she's just a really fun, sweet person, so she was lovely to work with! :)

    I am a fellow wedding planner from Madison, WI and have nothing but wonderful things to say about Jenni. I had reached out to her in Fall 2015 to introduce myself to her venue and have bonded ever since. She is detail-oriented, confident, and will go above and beyond to make your wedding or event as perfect as it can possibly be. She takes care of her clients, her clients VIPS and her vendors all while maintaining a cool and collected presence.

    I would highly recommend Jenni for any event. Not only does she get things done, but also has a beautiful eye for design to make your vision come to life.

    I’ve had the pleasure of working with and knowing Jenni for just over 2 and a half years. I’ve worked a few events with her, and we have worked dozens of weddings together. She is with couples every step of the way and always goes above and beyond the call of duty. She is organized, caring, and VERY good at what she does. Jenni takes charge and assures each event she works runs smoothly and that everyone is happy. She truly cares about not only her clients, but also those who are working with her; everyone is a friend to her, and when you hire her, you WILL get the care and attention that anyone would give to their friend. I have seen her transform a venue from a cluttered concert aftermath into a beautiful, majestic wedding wonderland. She can adapt to each couple’s unique personality, she can anticipate what her client’s needs are, and she creates a very stress-free and fun environment. She is a woman of many talents, and often becomes Wonder Woman on wedding days. Honestly, there are not enough words in the world to describe how extraordinary Jenni, her dedication, and her events are- it is something you definitely need to experience first-hand. You absolutely could not possibly be in better hands when it comes to Jenni Grubba.

    If credit was due to one person on our wedding day, it was Jenni by far. From the very first introduction, she handled the smallest, but most important thing - making our FAMILIES and US enjoy the entire day without a care in the world. She worked hard to make sure each detail was PERFECTION, and perfection it was. If it were possible to hire Jenni to coordinate every one of life's big celebrations, we would without a doubt! She is absolutely darling (both parents ADORED her as well!), absolutely organized, absolutely sensitive, and absolutely AMAZING!
    SHE IS A ROCKSTAR!

    Jenni was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is professional, creative and fun. Without a doubt I would work with her again. Her knowledge of the industry made for a flawless day. There were details I didn't even know to think about that Jenni just took care of. Our friends and family still make comments on how fun the day was, and the best part was I didn't worry about a thing! As a bride, that's a huge plus.

    We worked with Jenni for our wedding and she was phenomenal. Jenni had the venue decorated beautifully, coordinated the various vendor we had during the day as well as the staff at the venue, and was continually attentive to our needs. During the entire process, we felt confident and assured everything would go smoothly. Jenni was so fun to work with and I would highly recommend her!

    From the minute we met with Jenni we knew we were in good hands. Working with Jenni was the best thing we did for our wedding. My fiancé and I were feeling a bit overwhelmed with the whole planning process and Jenni made it all totally stress-free. Whether dealing patiently with overbearing family members, organizing with the caterer, or coordinating with the band, she always had us, and our guests, in mind. In fact, she herself seemed to be enjoying every moment of it along with us. Thanks, Jenni!

    As owners of a photography business (Joe & Jen Photography), we have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Jenni Grubba during many weddings over the past 4 years. As I sit down to reflect and write a testimonial for Jenni, I've become a bit awestruck and emotional thinking back on all of the times this amazing person has contributed her talents to support not only us, but the growth of countless skilled industry vendors and of course, her lucky Clients.

    This is what you can expect when hiring Jenni: the very best, and then some. I strongly encourage that you meet with her if you have the chance. Youll see - from the very first moment, there's no doubt about who she is and what she is able to accomplish. Her openness and sincere passion for her Clients' happiness and for what she does, combined with her seemingly endless supply of energy, make her irreplaceable. The number of times I've seen her anxious wedding Clients become 100% relaxed, confident, and joyful knowing that the details and logistics are being handled by Jenni is countless, and applies to every single Client we've had in common. I've had the honor of experiencing this myself in abundance over the past several years of working with her. We look forward to hiring her for our own destination wedding in February (there were no other options remotely considered), and we cannot wait to see what the future holds for this full-hearted, ambitious, unstoppable powerhouse. If the opportunity presents itself, HIRE HER! There are lots of great planners out there, but there is only one Jenni Grubba.

    I worked with Jenni for an event called “Funk Out Cancer,” a concert and silent auction in memory of my wife Kate who lost her battle with Cancer. The event raised money for cancer research at the University of Wisconsin Carbone Cancer Center. It was a delicate balance of being organized and professional enough to collect corporate sponsorship dollars, but still maintain a fun party atmosphere with dancing and live music that my wife was such a fan of. Jenni understood that delicate balance and offered great suggestions that we had not tried in the past. The event was a huge success and we ended up donated over $50,000 to help fight cancer. She was knowledgeable, very organized and a pleasure to work with. We only had to ask her a question once and she either made it happen, or contacted the correct people to get us an answer in a timely fashion. We had complete trust in her. The event came off flawlessly in large part to her efforts. I absolutely recommend her for your event.

    Jenni planned our company holiday party and let me tell you, I booked her immediately for the following year! She's not only extremely personable and a joy to be around, she really listens to your wants and needs and makes it happen without involving you in every detail. I was extremely impressed how she transformed my vision into a reality. I can't wait to see what she does for this year's party!

    A true wedding expert

    Jenni did a wonderful job planning our wedding. She is a real expert - she has tons of contacts in the industry and got us connected with a photographer and band, she works with a floral expert, and she has been through everything so nothing got her flustered or stressed out. We also had Jenni help with the rest of the weekend and gift bag stuffing, which took things off our plate. Jenni has a strong sense of design (which we don’t) and was very helpful at creating the right color palette and design aesthetic, which translated perfectly at the venue. We LOVE the way she brought in the absolute perfect decor, furniture, floral and other accents to exactly match our style and expectations. Everything went perfectly and I didn’t have to think about a thing during my wedding. I am a type A personality and was a very organized and hyper-attentive-to-details bride, and Jenni handled me with great when I got anxious. As mentioned, she’s truly an expert and stays cool, calm and collected no matter what.

    Calm, Cool and Collected

    Jenni made sure our wedding was as easy, breezy, beautiful as it could possibly be. I'm a bit of a stressy, detail oriented person, and it was a pleasure to give her the reins - especially in the final hour. She made everything run smoothly and even was able to make a mistake in one of our vendor bookings work out day-of! Couldn't have asked for a better weekend and it was largely due to Jenni taking such lovely control of every detail. All love to Jenni!

    Jenni was a pleasure to work with! She went above and beyond (helping us get our centerpieces and decorating our cake) for our wedding. She is organized and detail oriented which enabled me to let go and actually enjoy my wedding on the day. I would highly recommend Jenni!!!

    I worked with Jenni for my wedding in Madison, WI in 2014. She was fantastic to work with. She responded quickly to all my frantic bride emails and gave my Type A self all of the details I needed to feel like I was in control of things and nothing was going to get missed. Jenni was a pleasure to work with and I'd definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great wedding planner/coordinator.

    Great experience

    Everything worked out great for us even if we planned and discussed all details via email and skype due to living in different continents. It was absolutely great to see that Jenni took care of all our wishes and the outcome looked exactly how we imagined. The day itself was perfect. Every detail was taken into account. Thank you very much Jenni for being part of our special day!
