Frequently Asked Questions
Why hire a wedding planner? Why you?
This is a MUST! Hiring a planner will be the best investment when it comes to putting together your wedding. A planner will not only execute the event day, but educate you on wedding formalities and give you an expert opinion when it comes to the logistics, vendors, and wedding etiquette. I like to call myself “your hired best friend” because I am just that! The first person you want to call when you have some exciting news about your wedding. Your budget tracker to keep things realistic. Your therapist when you need to vent. Your personal assistant because you don’t need to do it all. Your hired best friend!
How many weddings /events do you plan a year?
Every year varies due to the clients, locations, and packages. However, I would say average 10-20 events.
Do you travel for weddings?
Yes!! I love to travel!! I limit myself to California, due to travel time and my knowledge of vendors & properties, but let’s chat! Please note that clients are responsible for all travel expenses.
Do you have a set vendor team that you work with?
I definitely have vendors that I would highly recommend, but I do not have a set list of vendors I solely work with or will not work with. Each client is different with style, location, and budget, so I assist with building you a team tailored to your event.
What is the best advice you can give to a new bride-to-be?
Have fun!! You are getting married!! When people ask you questions about their wedding, know they are doing it out of excitement for you, not trying to cause you stress. If you don’t have an answer for them – date picked, venue booked, wedding dress, etc. etc. say you are doing wedding research!! I promise it will all come together and be a beautiful event when all the pieces come together. Just take it one step at a time.
How much do your clients spend on their weddings?
Goodness, I work with all budgets. I would say my lowest budget would be about $20k and easily go up to $175k. Remember, anything is possible!! I truly mean that. You need to be open to possibilities, variations, and maybe compromise a bit, but that’s right along with everything else in life.
Happy Clients
Angela & Alex: I am so lucky to have had Jenna as my wedding planner and coordinator. Even though we’ve been friends since high school she was beyond professional and helped plan the perfect wedding for my husband and me. She is beyond organized, creative, professional, and a wonderful person to work with. She helped me keep my head on straight during the two months leading up to the wedding. When we did our wedding walkthrough my mom and I were in awe as Jenna asked all these questions to the venue that we would never have thought of. On the big day she was everywhere at once and also behind the scenes. I don’t even know how that’s possible. But she kept me calm and collected and handled all the behind the scene stuff without me ever noticing. Our day was beyond perfect! Thank you Jenna!!
Kimberly & Brian: Jenna Wesseln was a godsend! She helped with every detail from A-Z, was extremely organized, always timely, and just made us feel at ease throughout the entire planning process and day of too! I highly recommend Jenna to anyone and everyone looking for a wedding/event planner. The day and process will be exponentially smoother!
Micaela & Michael: Jenna goes above and beyond for her clients. She truly made my husband and I feel at ease knowing that our wedding was in the hands of someone so competent, experienced, and hard working. She knows the business very well, is extremely personable and organized, and will make sure all of your wedding dreams come true! We would recommend her services to anyone in the process of planning a wedding.
Amanda & Vince: Our wedding turned out to be more than we could have ever possibly imagined. Jenna is truly a dream team wrapped in one person and I don’t know what my wedding day (or my sanity) would’ve been without her! She helped put together our entire wedding day timeline, recommended amazing vendors and was there for us every step of the way. Jenna was always there to guide us through things and at times to simply ease my mind. Our big day went off without a single hitch and we were able to enjoy every single moment of our special day because of Jenna. She was very detail-oritended, not only the day of the wedding, but throughout the entire process, which made wedding planning much more enjoyable for us. Jenna made our wildest wedding dreams come true!
Valerie & Adrian: Jenna is extraordinary! I can’t imagine having planned my wedding with anyone else! From the first appointment, she made my husband and I feel comfortable and excited about the process and that never changed through the entire year that we planned our wedding. Many engaged couples find themselves stressed and overwhelmed by the process and it’s understandable considering how many elements and vendors it takes to coordinate a wedding. Thankfully we had Jenna to provide recommendations, keep us organized and within budget. Jenna understood our vision and executed it perfectly. She is extremely knowledgeable and we feel so fortunate to have worked with such a professional wedding planner. Jenna is so much more than a wedding planner, she is also a friend and our big day wouldn’t have been as amazing and perfect without her expertise along the way!
