    Made the Day Perfect!

    These girls saved my wedding day! They made everything possible even during Covid and made sure the day ran smoothly. I couldn’t have done any of it without them. Not to mention, they are just a blast in general! Jessie Jo and Melissa truly are saints and I am forever grateful to them for making my day so perfect!

    Wonderful!! Highly recommend!

    Jessie Jo and her team are amazing!! From our initial phone meeting to our final venue walkthrough, I felt confident and comfortable with Jessie Jo and Carolyn (our day-of coordinator). They were both super helpful, intuitive and organized, and were always available to answer any questions and concerns you might have. Our wedding planning took a stressful turn when, a few days before the date, the forecast predicted rain! Jessie and Carolyn immediately got to work with the venue, activating our rain plan, and re-arranging things to accommodate the changes. They reached out to me every day to talk about options and make sure I was OK with any changes, and just to reassure me that things would be fine! Day of, it didn't actually end up raining at all, and the wedding was perfect! Carolyn and her assistant Gaby did a wonderful job with the vendors, making sure everything was set up properly, and keeping the event running smoothly until the end. Their attention to detail was fantastic as well! We got a lot of compliments on Carolyn from guests and friends/family that were helping set up too, we seriously couldn't have pulled off such a perfect event without them! I would highly recommend Jessie Jo, Carolyn, and the rest of the Zilla Free team!

    Stress saving at its finest!

    Everyone I spoke to when planning my wedding said the smartest decision they made was hiring a wedding coordinator. I couldn’t agree more!!! Jessie Jo was not just any coordinator, she makes you feel like you’ve known each other your whole life. She was so proactive, organised and had thought of every little detail.
    We were planning our wedding from half way across the world and we hadn’t even been to our venue but she made herself available when it suited us and made everything so stress free.
    The ceremony, reception and events ran without a glitch and it’s all thanks to her!
    So I’m passing on the advice - don’t just book any coordinator - you need Jessie Jo and her incredible team at Zilla Free Zone!

    The BEST in the business!

    I cannot begin to express how amazing Jessie and the entire Zilla Free Zone crew is! I booked the month of coordination plan and the services we received at our wedding were completely above and beyond. I had zero worries on my wedding day because Jessie and her team handled everything with grace, calm, laughter, and complete professionalism. Not only did they coordinate everything beautifully and completely put me at ease, but they did a gorgeous job of setting things up and executing my vision. They styled the event even better than I could have imagined and were one step ahead of me with everything. As far as I knew everything that day went off without a hitch, if there were any issues - ZFZ handled them and I was none the wiser. If you are questioning whether you need a coordinator, YOU DO, and ZFZ is definitely the one you should go with. I've participated in a lot of weddings as bridesmaid, officiant, family member, etc., and ZFZ is by far the best coordinator I have ever seen. I definitely plan on only getting married once, but if I had to do it again I would go to ZFZ EVERY time!

    Jessie and er team are miracle workers

    If you are hesitant about hiring a coordinator (whether it be full throttle or day of) let me say this-DO IT. Jessie and her team made the day run so smoothly that I (the bride) was completely calm and collected. I was not aware of the behind the scenes chaos because Jessie and her team managed it all with such grace and professionalism. I am SO grateful to them and how they completely made our wedding vision come to life.

    Made our wedding better than we hoped for!

    Jessie Jo and her team made our wedding better than what we had imagined. First – if you are not sure if you need a planner – you do, it takes so much of the stress off of you. Second, once you accept that you need a planner, hire the team at Zilla Free Zone (formerly known as Jessie Jo events).

    We knew some of what we wanted but it was hard to put into words, a few phone calls and emails with Jessie Jo and she got exactly the vibe we were going for even if we couldn’t explain it. She was able to find the perfect florist, photographer, DJ and hair & make-up to complete the look.

    When we had our walk-through she made a few suggestions that really made the day perfect, things I never would have thought of. My only regret is that we didn’t hire ZFZ sooner, we would have made better decisions dealing with our venue if we had known. The ZFZ team is so knowledgeable and made our planning experience and the vibe of our wedding amazing!

    Jessie and her team are amazing. I booked Jessie for wedding day management and let me tell you, it was the best decision I made. My wedding day was stress free all thanks to her and her assistants. They made sure my day was smooth and on time. They worked so hard non-stop to ensure everything went perfectly. My wedding was so beautiful thanks to their help. They did the setup of my welcome table, cake table, wedding favors, etc. so many things you don't realize that you need help with but you do. They even handled all my vendors so I literally didn't have to worry about a thing! Jessie really cares about her brides, she would text me the weeks leading up to the wedding to check in on me and make sure everything was good and if I ever needed anything she was quick to respond. She is fun and easy to work with. Jessie Jo Events is simply AMAZING! I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a coordinator/planner for their wedding.

    I can’t say enough amazing things about Jessie Jo and her talented, fabulous team! From the moment we met her we felt an instant connection with her. Not only did she hold my hand during the whole planning process, but she had great ideas, professional advice, and was a helping hand when it came to anything that popped up. On the day of our wedding she handled everything with ease and I knew our wedding was in good hands! Her two assisants Kim and Carolyn were fantastic as well! They were right there to answer any question or deal with any issues that came up. We absolutely loved working with the whole team and know that we will continue our friendship through the years!

    If you're looking to be 100% stress-free on the day of your wedding, you MUST book Jessie Jo Events! Jessie and her team did a phenomenal job at executing my wedding day vision. I also appreciated Jessie's personal texts and calls leading up to the day of the wedding...she even gave me a few wedding ideas that guests absolutely loved. She truly takes the "Zilla" out of "Bridezilla". Thank you so much!!

    Jessie Jo is amazing! From the planning stages to the day of, I had no worries with my wedding in her hands. Jessie Jo is so easy to talk to, and so knowledgable and helpful. I could not have asked for a better team to keep my wedding day perfect. I wouldn't change a thing about my wedding, and so much of this has to be credited to Jessie Jo and her amazing team of girls. I would recommend her to any bride looking to have a fun and enjoyable wedding! Love her!!

    BOOK NOW BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE DOES!
    I knew Jessie was the one the minute I got off of the phone with her... and then when I met her in person I really fell in love. She's got spunk, perspective, insane creativity and out of this world organization skills... including her ability to make you obsessed with sticky notes and the obsession will stick with you forever.

    Jessie took care of everything. She is someone that you can automatically trust with any situation so that you can kick it, relax and not stress about a single thing on your wedding day.
    Jessie took every single one of my requests and made it happen. She is precise and detail oriented with every aspect of the ceremony reception, and everything before, after, and in between.

    Most importantly, Jessie will make sure that you eat your dinner... and that right there, is true love.

    Seriously, book her now.

    Jessie Jo is absolutely amazing. Talk about a savior. From the perfect timeline and organizing the rehearsal to the most beautiful added fall decor to really pull the entire room together. She's so well organized and born to take charge. She relieved any stress from the day. I could never thank her enough!

    So where do I begin? I found Jessie Jo Events while browsing Instagram during the beginning process of wedding planning. My husband and I had a unique situation when it came to planning our wedding, I'm currently active duty in the military and was in the beginning stages of deploying overseas. My husband and I also have a 2 year old toddler.....did I mention we live on the east coast? Obviously we both had a million things to juggle so planning a wedding on the west coast was adding a lot to our plate. This is where Jessie and her team came in. She made planning 100x easier for me and found the rest of the vendors we couldn't find on our own (within our budget mind you AND they were GREAT). Jessie truly made me feel like every single detail of the wedding was just as important to her as it was to me and that is something I took great comfort in. She even called me to make sure I wasn't freaking out when I was feeling a little overwhelmed with planning. She kept track of every single detail (including making sure I was staying on top of things) for me and when I say this wedding wouldn't have happened without her, I mean it.

    The day-of coordinators for our wedding were AMAZING. Every. single. thing. went off without a hitch. Jessie's team had the decor and every little detail down to a T so all I had to do the day of was show up! I can not say thank you enough to Jessie and her team. I would definitely recommend Jessie Jo Events to any couple interested in getting a wedding planner. Thank you so much Jessie Jo Events for making our wedding day a dream come true.

    Jessie Jo was amazing! She did my timeline, contacted my vendors, set up my venue to be the most beautiful amazing place ever. She worked so well even with my OCD personality. She even got rid of wedding crashers. She was patient, professional, and efficient. I had so much confidence in her team that I had no worries the day of my wedding. Everything ran smoothly! Thanks Jessie Jo for your amazing work and coordination.

    Caroline, thank you so much for your kind words! Your wedding was beyond gorgeous and not to mention the love shared by your family was mind blowing. P.S. the "In-N-Out" truck was a hit!

    Jessie Jo, Saved me from a bridezilla! She is a very organized wedding planner with a lot of creativity and a lot of structure! From the beginning me and my wife felt comfortable with her we loved that she took the time to get to know us and to understand our vision for our wedding. She was budget friendly and helped us also get what we wanted. She helped my wife be calm and collective even on the most stressful situations. Jessie jo became more than just a wedding planner but also a friend I highly recommend hiring Jessie Jo me and my wife are extremely grateful for her and owe her so much thank you Jessie Jo!

    From the minute we met Jessie Jo we were so comfortable with her. She was so attentive to our vision for our wedding. Because of her experience I felt like very detailed was not over looked. My husband and I had a very creative vision and she helped guide us to make sure that vision came through. I think we were all surprise how perfect it came out. I mean I could be naive whether it was perfect or not. But whether mishaps did or did not happen Jessie Jo took care of it all. I never felt overwhelmed nor ignored. She made us feel like we were her only couple and I loved that. She kept her cool and always knew the solutions to our problems. If you want your wedding to be a fun planning process you should plan with Jessie Jo. You'll miss her when the wedding day passes.

    Zilla Free Zone's reply:

    Oh Yelitza, Thank you sooo much! You were so amazing to work with, so much that I miss you still ughhh! Since we're family now, we will be waiting for that baby shower invite... when that time comes haha!

    Jessie saved my wedding! Lightening struck my venue, causing the sprinklers to go off and ruin all of the food for my wedding and a power outage. When my outdoor wedding was looking like a disaster Jessie knew exactly what to do to make sure my wedding went on and was amazing. She remained calm through everything and helped keep everyone else calm. She seriously preforms miracles! She is so organized and professional. I could not have done this wedding without her. She really does it all!

    Zilla Free Zone's reply:

    Thank you so much Madeleine! The rain added so much beauty to your wedding! You still looked like a goddess walking down the isle. Thank you for allowing me to be apart of your big day!

    She freaking kicked ass!! No joke this little lady took care of not only me but my bridezilla dad and mother. She made our day perfect. Both my husband and I loved her design, the way she handled a stressful day and how she made my vision come to life. She helped me hire the best photographers, DJ and rental companies. Trust her judgement, she gets things done!! Love you Jessie!!

    Brooke, Thank you so much for these kind words. I couldn't of had an easier client/friend to work with. Planning a wedding from different time zones was a breeze working together, we were a great team! Your wedding was so much fun to plan and coordinate it didn't feel like work. I can't wait to see pics when you have you new bundle of joy :)
    We MISS you,

    It was a great experience using Jessie as my day of coordinator! One thing I wanted was not to worry about anything on the day of my wedding, I was able to get this with Jessie. Jessie and her assistant put me at ease. I never had to worry about a thing.
    She offered advice when I needed it, answered any questions I had, and sent friendly email updates to keep me on track. Jessie was able to understand everything I had imagined for our wedding day and helped accomplish it perfectly. She pays attention to the details!

    If I could give any advice for future brides, it would be to book with Jessie!

    My wedding was one month ago today and as I think back on that day and the planning ahead of time I have so many great memories. Yes great memories of planning! When most brides-to-be are stressed and worried, I was not and that had a lot to do with Jessie Jo, because I knew that anything I needed before or the day of she would be able to help. Jessie Jo helped us find great vendors that were in our price range. She also made sure to contact any vendors for us when we needed to ask them a question or let them know any details about the day of the wedding.

    I am so thankful for all of the hard work from Jessie Jo Events. They were very helpful and thoughtful. They listened to all of my ideas on how I wanted everything to look and how I wanted it to go. The whole day turned out just how I had envisioned it thanks to Jessie Jo Events.

    Jessie Jo Events saved our entire wedding from the beginning to the end. To begin with, we planned a 180 person wedding in less than 2 months. Not once was she not responsive, and she was always there to listen to any questions or concerns that we might have. Walking into the wedding we felt very secure with all of the plans and timelines until a storm decided to take over Southern California in the middle of July. Jessica reacted in a complete professional manner under all of the stress. We had to change everything around at our outside venue to keep everything as least wet as possible in an hour's time. I cannot begin to explain how beautiful she made everything under these circumstances. It was completely more perfect than I ever thought it would be! Thank you to Jessica and Kim for all of the handwork. We could have not pulled this beautiful disaster off without them!

    Jessie Jo Events is hands down THE BEST! I was a worried Bride to Be, and a New Mom at home, so you can imagine my stress levels were pretty high. She came in with open arms and legs so quick Richard Simmons was jealous. She had Non-stop communication with not only myself, but all of my vendors too; making my days a breeze before the big day. I highly recommend Jessie Jo Events for your Special Day. She'll make it look so good...NBC will want to air it.

    Jessie was amazing!! She went above and beyond. Not only did she help me find a great DJ and make up artist, she helped me make some of my DIY projects. Jessie always knew what we had pictured for our special day and it truly was a beautifully picture perfect occasion., in fact I wish I could do it all over again!, mainly because I am really going to miss her.

    Jessie Jo Adolph was such a pleasure to work with during the stressful process known as wedding planning!!! She was so knowledgeable and caring, and really helped me with everything I needed from the tiniest details to the biggest moments of my special day. Jessie was referred to me by a coworker and I'm so glad I chose her to coordinate my wedding. She was beyond helpful with recommendations and always offered her honest opinion, which I greatly appreciate. She was so organized and very reliable, She even made me my own Pinterest board where she would send me pins of neat ideas that fit my wedding style!! Now that its all said and done I honestly don't know what I would have done if she wasn't there for me! On the day of our wedding she picked up the slack in any area she needed to and kept things running smoothly so I was able to relax, enjoy my day and make some memories I will have forever. My experience with Jessie was fantastic and I would highly recommend her to anyone planning a wedding! Xo, Michelle Galvan
