Justyn Sent on 04/01/2026Jessica Hennessey was AMAZING
I cannot recommend Jessica Hennessey and her team highly enough. I wasn’t initially sold on the idea of a wedding planner. However, planning a wedding at my family’s waterfront home presented unique logistical hurdles that required an expert hand.
Within three minutes of my first call with Jessica, I knew she was the one. Her deep experience with outdoor weddings was evident immediately. She acted as an incredible sounding board—honest and insightful, yet 100% supportive of my final decisions.
What truly set Jessica apart was her advocacy. When our floral proposal came back significantly over budget, she didn't suggest cutting the installation I’d dreamed of since day one. Instead, she spent hours going line-by-line through the quote, finding creative ways to repurpose arrangements and adjust details to save the installation. In that moment, I knew she wasn’t just checking boxes; she was fighting for my vision. On the wedding day, Jessica and her team were flawless. They managed every behind-the-scenes "fire" with such grace that I didn’t even know they occurred until the next day. For the first time, my mother and I—two people who do not trust easily—were able to step back and actually be present. We truly could not have pulled off the wedding of my dreams without her and her team! -

Hiring Jessica was easily one of the best wedding planning decision we made. My husband and I were in our wedding planning phase for a little over 2 years and Jessica was with us every step of the way. From day one she was fully hands on, professional and responsive. She helped us create the dream team of vendors who made our planning experience that much better. As you can imagine the wedding industry can be overwhelming, but Jessica helped us stay true to our vision with her expert opinion and calm nature. She was so helpful to bounce ideas off of, no matter how crazy they may have been. She listened to us and took what was in our heads and brought it to life. On the day of, her and her team handled everything seamlessly. We were big about the day having a good flow and her team did just that. They created the perfect day of timeline coordinating with all the vendors to prevent any hiccups. The work she did behind the scenes was so invaluable. She gave us the opportunity to truly enjoy our wedding day and we did just that. It was far beyond what we could have imagined and wouldn't have been anything like it was without Jessica's help. We continue to get comments from our guests about how perfect the day was. We are so grateful to have been able to work with Jessica and her team. We would 100% recommend her to any other couple anytime -

Jessica planned our August 2025 wedding and the entire process from start to finish was amazing. Jessica went out of her way to ensure that our vision for the entire weekend came to life, while bringing her expert opinions and suggestions to elevate our welcome party and wedding. On the day of, everything was handled seamlessly and her and the team were at the ready to handle anything that came up. The design for the day was even better than I could have imagined from the linens, to the florals and the little details in between and it would not have been possible without Jessica. For any brides considering a planner, it was without a doubt the best decision we made and I would 10/10 recommend Jessica! -

Where to begin telling you about Jessica Hennessey Weddings? I had the joy of planning two of my daughters' weddings with Jessica - June 2024 and June 2025. Our biggest challenge was making them each unique, magical and exactly what my very different daughters had always dreamed of. Not easy! One was on a summer family estate on Cape Cod and the other was at an upscale golf club in Connecticut. Both were stunning! Jessica outdid herself and took away all of the stress and drama that there could have been. Jessica has the patience, poise, ability and experience to manage all that comes her way. There are inevitable situations that come up - our perfect reception and dance flooring was ruined in a storm at an event 3 days before wedding #2😳! Jessica didn't even tell me about it until she and the flooring vendor had spent the day calling companies and developing a perfect plan to replace the flooring with an even better design! That is one example of how things pop up and they are all managed with grace and confidence by Jessica and her team. Weddings can be emotional. Jessica allowed me to focus on my family and not worry about the many details involved in both wedding weekends. I now consider Jessica a wonderful friend and feel truly grateful to have met her and had her be a part of such important family events. -

Jessica is simply the best at what she does. We couldn't have asked for a more magical wedding day, and it all starts with an A+ team! She went above and beyond to help bring our vision to life and transform our yard into a dreamy tented oasis. Every detail was meticulously curated, from the handpicked vendors who were all top-notch, to the seamless coordination of the entire event. Even in stressful situations, she remained calm and composed, working closely with us to ease any worries and quickly find solutions. Her attention to detail and organizational skills were truly remarkable, allowing us to fully enjoy our day without a single worry. She was on the front lines on wedding day, helping with vendor parking, bustling my dress, fixing my veil, and helping me navigate cocktail hour to family portraits.
It was stress-free, beautiful, and everything ran so smoothly. We’re forever grateful for the unforgettable experience she created! -

My husband and I are SO SO thankful to have found Jessica as our wedding planner! From the moment we hired her she was very hands on, responsive, and professional. Jessica was my soundboard throughout the entire wedding planning process which I am BEYOND thankful for! She became a friend throughout the process and has such a reassuring calming nature about her when planning felt overwhelming. I would always seek her advice and she always had such great insight, would listen, and at the end of the process was able to capture our wedding weekend vision COMPLETELY! My husband and I could go on and on about how thankful we were to have Jessica throughout the process! Not only did she absolutely crush bringing our vision to life, she also was so incredible with managing vendors and timeline! My husband and I loved the creative and had a particular vision on how we wanted the wedding weekend to look/feel… But there was a lot of logistical/timeline/vendor managment aspects that weren’t things we looked forward to in the planning process and Jessica was able to take head on! She provided each vendor a detailed timeline and made sure everyone was on the same page. On our wedding day everything went off without any issue or disruption and that all goes into the incredible backend planning which Jessica was entirely prepared for! You can tell she genuinely puts her all into her clients and works so hard to have the most incredible outcome. It was so incredible to be able to know we were amazing hands when our wedding weekend started and truly enjoyed ourselves to the FULLEST. We are SO thankful for Jessica and if anyone is looking for a wedding planner we HIGHLY encourage booking Jessica!!! She is quite literally THE BEST. Thank you Jessica!!! -

10/10 Jessica Hennessey is THE only choice!
We hired Jessica as our wedding coordinator this September after she came highly recommended by our videographer. She absolutely did not disappoint. From day 1 meeting her while vetting a few coordinators, she immediately felt like the perfect fit well above the rest. She was honest, transparent, empathetic, highly organized, and really guided us through the entire process. Especially in the month leading up to and the day of our wedding, we 100% could not have had the incredibly perfect wedding day that we had without her. Everything went off without a hitch, she ensured every vendor knew exactly where to be, at what time, and what their role was, which allowed us to fully enjoy all of the amazing moments of our wedding day together. She even helped me with my dress, my veil and carried my train for me in many points of the day. I found myself looking to her in the moments before our first look as I was nervous and excited, not as a coordinator, but as a friend, and I was so grateful she was there with me. If we could do it all over again, we would 100% hire Jessica and cannot recommend her enough to all future brides and grooms. -

The very best!!
Hiring Jessica was the best decision we made for our backyard wedding. She was professional, kind, and extremely helpful. She made sure nothing fell through the cracks in the planning process and was very knowledgeable about how to make sure the whole day ran smoothly. On the day of the wedding her and her team created a very stress-free environment and instantly had solutions for any little problems that arose. Our wedding ran so smoothly and she kept everything on time so we could just focus on the fun. We loved Jessica and her team and were so glad they were part of our special day. I couldn’t recommend them more! -

Jessica and her team are THE BEST!
Jessica and her team are THE BEST! We enlisted the help of Jessica Hennessey Weddings as a part-time planner leading up to our wedding in February 2022. Based on our initial conversations and input, she created an amazing design and decor plan, and helped suggest vendors whose aesthetics would match our vision. Leading up to our big day, she provided input on any changes or concerns we expressed, organized all our vendors, and put together a clear and concise plan that everyone could follow. Day-of, she brought our vision to life and made sure our special day went off without a hitch! I truly did not have to worry about one thing on my wedding day, which was amazing!
Originally, we were actually suppose to get married in 2021, but COVID-19 derailed our plans slightly. When we decided to postpone, Jessica could not have been more helpful. Despite us not being a full time client, Jessica dedicated additional time and effort into helping us with our postponement. We are so appreciative of her help and expertise during that time!
Overall, Jessica and her team did such an amazing job. They truly went above and beyond, and we could not be more grateful. -

THE best!!
I can truly say with the utmost confidence, that hiring Jess was the best decision I made throughout the wedding process, only second to marrying my husband.
Planning a wedding during COVID, while simultaneously working as a Nurse in NYC, was overwhelming to say the least. Even though Jess was also navigating the COVID wedding madness (while also being an incredible mom and wife nonetheless) Jess was always my calming force, voice of reason, organizer extraordinaire, sounding board and everything in between. She is superwoman! Not to mention, she literally handed us the most incredible vendors on a silver platter. It was so special seeing all of their work come to life day of and we were BLOWN away.
Thanks to Jess and her team, my husband and I were able to be fully present throughout our entire wedding weekend. We were solely focused on each other, our friends and family, and able to enjoy every single second of our wedding because we knew that Jess and her team had everything under control. I honestly don't even know if there were any mishaps because Jess made sure the entire day ran seamlessly and it was the best day of our lives.
Jess is so much more than "a wedding planner”. She embodies everything you want and need while planning a wedding. Oh right, she’s also a two-time Emmy award-winning producer…I mean, seriously!! RUN, don’t walk and hire Jess for the most important day of your life. You will not regret it.
We love you Jess and are eternally grateful to you and your team!!! -

Carolyn Sent on 08/11/2021Highly recommend
Jessica had a vision for our venue that I never would have thought of—and she brought our entire day to life. I can honestly say that having a coordinator I could trust made my wedding planning process stress-free (even during the pandemic). -

Michaela Sent on 01/22/2021Simply the best!
WOW - I can very confidently say I would not be married right now if it wasn't for Jess. We were 2 months away from our dream day when COVID hit and if we didn't have her to help us navigate through a postponement and everything in-between I don't know where we'd be. From day one, until our wedding day, she was nothing but professional, informative, patient and most importantly - so incredibly organized! She always listened to us and gave such thoughtful advice. Always respected our input while providing such beautiful and creative ideas. Her attention to detail is impeccable - she never missed a beat on anything. Jess connected us with the most talented team of vendors and we could not imagine our day without them. Just magical! During our year of planning, I always felt that we were in such good hands. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't feeling stressed out when we had to postpone - but Jess always, always, always made it very clear that being married is the goal here and it would be the BEST. DAY. EVER. No matter what. She was not lying - it was the best day ever and we owe it all to her and her team! Simply put, Jess is a ROCKSTAR. -

Gabrielle Sent on 11/02/2020Customized and comprehensive wedding coordination
Like many other 2020 couples, my husband and I had to drastically change our wedding plans due to COVID-19. We changed venues and had to downsize our guest list dramatically. Our original venue came with a coordinator, but our new venue was a private residence, and it quickly became evident I'd need some extra help. At this point, it was already mid-July and our wedding was in October, so I began contacting planners/coordinators in the Cape Cod area. Jessica got back to me promptly and we set up some time to chat to see if her services were a good fit for us. They were!
In those three months leading up to the wedding, Jessica provided helpful tools to make the wedding planning process easier, made key suggestions that we never would have thought of on our own, and most importantly, helped us navigate the ever-changing COVID-19 regulations landscape. She's a great communicator and was always willing to hop on the phone to talk something through. Jessica really shined in the couple of weeks leading up to our wedding and the day of. She coordinated with all of our vendors and created a wedding-day packet including a comprehensive timeline of the day and important contact information. That packet was like my bible :) On the day of the wedding, Jessica made sure everything went smoothly. If anything went wrong, I didn't know about it! She took all of our decor and worked with our florist to make our vision come to life. I was absolutely blown away when I saw everything set up. The day went exactly according to plan, and my husband and I keep saying we never, ever could have pulled it off without Jessica.
Not only was Jessica extremely organized and communicative, but she was also there for us emotionally. Planning a wedding during COVID-19 was extremely stressful, and Jessica provided some much-needed positivity and relieved us of so much stress. I know we'll stay in touch with Jessica as she played just as much of a role in our wedding as some of our closest family and friends. If you are looking for a planner/coordinator/designer and hype girl all in one, hire Jessica! -

I can not recommend Jessica enough. I originally reached out for help with the design and decor of the wedding, but after chatting with her on our first call, I knew she needed to be more involved. Jessica immediately understood the feel we wanted for our November wedding. She put together incredible mood boards to help us get different visual ideas, and suggested the most AMAZING vendor team to pull our day together. Jessica also took over for month of coordination, and this was the best decision we made. She is organized, responsive, and assertive. Leading up to the wedding, she was in contact with our vendors, created an incredibly detailed timeline and packet that every single vendor received, and I had absolutely nothing to worry about leading up to and on wedding day. We could not have been in better hands. The things I loved the most about working with Jessica was she listened, was honest, and I trusted, without a doubt, if something went wrong on our day, she would be able to handle it. Having Jessica as part of our wedding day team gave us total peace of mind, and we loved working with her! -

Max Sent on 09/23/2019Amazing Wedding Planner
We hired Jessica as our day of and rehearsal wedding planner for our beach wedding in Cape Cod and it was the best decision we made during the planning process. Given the fact we had an outdoor wedding and a hurricane potentially impacting our plans, Jessica was able to calmly guide our decision making and make sure that before, during, and after the event, everything went flawlessly. -

Kara Sent on 09/12/2019Couldn't have done it without her!
Where do I begin??? I probably would have lost my mind during wedding planning if it weren't for Jessica. My fiance and I had a 2+ year engagement that started cross country which resulted in LOTS of questions. Jessica is a wealth of knowledge and expertise in her industry. She brings up things that would never even have crossed my mind, which is especially important when having a tented "non venue" wedding. She is extremely thorough and checks all the boxes and then some. We chose the day-of coordination package that includes unlimited communication. This was probably the biggest perk of hiring Jessica. I think I emailed her at least once a week for the first year of our engagement and then maybe 5-10x a week during the last 6 months haha. She ALWAYS replied to me almost instantly, always offering solutions and pointing me in the direction I needed. I am pretty sure this is not something that is included in most day-of coordinator's services!
The Monday before our wedding we found out that we were expecting a hurricane on Saturday (wedding day). Jessica was in constant communication with me all week replying to text messages from early am until late in the evening. She offered to call around to find me a generator when we thought we might have to rent one! She had me order clear umbrellas for the bridal party and some table weights in case the wind blew over (something I would never have known!).
Jessica communicated clearly with all of my vendors and provided them a very thorough packet with timelines and details, phone numbers etc!
When the day came Jessica and her team (Krysti and Martha) were on site from the early morning. Jessica stopped by our bridal suite multiple times to style a flat lay for our photographer and pick up any odds and ends I needed to give her last minute.
I cannot speak highly enough about her team members that day. Both were so calming and sweet!!! Martha and Krysti made me feel so good on our wedding day - they checked in asking if we needed anything so many times during the night, they packed my mother's car with all our items and help on to keys and important items. They ran around and put tent sides up when the hurricane cleared and the sun came out!
I could go on and on about Jessica and her team but I would suggest scheduling a call with Jessica to discuss your needs! If you are looking for someone with attention to detail and a calming personality- Jess is your girl!!
