Incredible, stress free wedding planning and day of

If you want a stress free planning process and a beautiful wedding hire the Joyeux team. I am type A and was nervous to let go of the reins but I am so happy I did. Jess and Makenna took care of everything and went above and beyond in both the planning process and on the wedding day. They understood the vision my now husband and I had for our wedding, anticipated things I didn’t and made our dreams a reality. I would recommend Joyeux to everyone!

An AMAZING experience with Joyeux!

Joyeux Events was an absolute pleasure to work with! Jessica and Makenna were organized, knowledgeable, personable, caring and attentive! I was 2-3 months postpartum when we began working together and they made planning my wedding so easy! Everything went smoothly and they handled IT ALL! I am so appreciative of them for making my day stress free and so special! It was the wedding I always dreamt of having and it’s all because of them!

Joyeux Events is amazing!

If you have Joyeux Events as your wedding planners, consider yourself lucky. We received so many compliments from friends and family about how smooth our wedding day went and how well put together the day was overall. Honestly, our day wouldn’t have felt that way had it not been for Makenna. As a bride, I wasn’t nervous about how the flow of the day would go or any other aspect of the day because Makenna had everything under control. If anything did happen on our wedding day, I never knew about it. Leading up to the wedding, Makenna was so helpful in communicating with vendors, talking through design options, and asking questions of things we never would have even thought of. She took so much stress off of myself and my husband with all of the work she did behind the scenes. If you are thinking about doing the bridal concierge for the morning of, I highly recommend adding that service on. My girls and I felt so stress free and well taken care of that we were able to just enjoy the moment. Even our hair and makeup ladies were impressed with the service we were receiving. It was truly a wonderful experience getting to work with Makenna at Joyeux events. Not only did she do amazing work for us, but she also was just so sweet and caring. You’d be in great hands if you choose Joyeux Events as your planner!
