    Dream Wedding Day Come to Life!

    We purchased the VIP Wedding Day Management with Joelle Tripp and I cannot speak more highly of our experience with her. There are some things we knew we could take on ourselves, but there are other things (like an event floorplan) that it's best to have a professional weigh in on. She made sure our vision came to life in the thoughtful and beautiful way, and she took care of all of the details on the day-of that I promise you don't want to be thinking about on your wedding day. We thoroughly loved working with Joelle and we couldn't have done it without her.

    To the now ICONIC couple who will forever be known as the "ones who ate cake on the dance floor"....you're the absolute best 🥰 It was SOO much fun working with you and Paul and I can't thank you enough for trusting me to bring it all to life. Would also like to take a moment and give much deserved *snaps* to the man who forged through his wedding day without wearing the dreaded boot L O L!

    Mucho love to you both and thank you a BAJILLION times for the words of love N 💕

    10/10 Stars! Hire this miracle worker.

    Where do I even begin...if you're on the fence about hiring a wedding planner or day of coordinator, I would not hesitate and tell you to DO IT asap! There are so many moving parts and factors to a wedding that couples do not realize until they start planning their own wedding. We would 100% recommend Joelle and her team over and over again as they made our wedding day a dream come true. It was truly a fairytale day and we felt very relaxed and stress free from the moment Joelle took over. All of our friends and family even complimented on how smoothly and organized the day felt. We ended up picking the day of management which includes a meet and greet, 2 meetings with Joelle, and the team taking over your wedding 4 weeks out. They took care of every little detail from scheduling to layout (which who knows what our wedding would of looked like had Joelle not taken over; not great flow I can tell you that much!), to dealing with all the vendors which is a task in and of itself. Joelle's humor, gung-ho personality, and get it done attitude is the icing on the cake and puts you at complete ease. We had so many laughs with her and wished we could do our wedding day over and over again. She even sewed on one of the groomsmen jacket buttons when it fell off! (Talk about a jack of all trades lol). We cannot recommend Joelle enough and you will not regret hiring her and her team as they will stop at nothing to create your dream day! Joelle, thank you for calming us, putting our vision to life, and for guiding us along this crazy journey.

    Absolutely incredible!

    Joelle is PURE MAGIC!

    On the fence of hiring a wedding planner? Don’t think, just book Joelle! Seriously, our wedding day would not have been the same and Joelle LITERALLY saved the day.

    I’ve known Joelle from also being in the wedding industry and as soon as we started planning our wedding, I knew I had to have Joelle as our planner. Not only is her personality and energy so much fun and contagious, but her dedication also to making your day the absolute best is OFF THE CHARTS!

    We postponed our wedding from 2021 to 2022 and the transition was so easy with her. From the initial conversation, I knew we were in good hands.

    I had a long piece of peach (my fav colour) fabric that I’ve had for years and knew I wanted to use it somehow. I completely trusted Joelle with her creativity and she used it on our arch to create the most beautiful backdrop for our ceremony. We were blown away. Then, she magically transformed our archway flowers to be on our head table and it was so INCREDIBLE!

    Joelle really went above & beyond. When our bartenders really fell short, Joelle stepped in and saved the day. She was ready to bartend and take over to compensate for their lack of professionalism. This is what Joelle does. She really cares and will help with whatever she can.

    Joelle & her team have an unwavering passion for their work and I wish we could have another wedding, just so we could hire her all over again.

    Brandon & I thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We admire you and your talents so much. Words can’t express how grateful we are.

    We will recommend Joy by Joelle over and over again. She’s amazing, her team is amazing. BOOK THEM!

    She’s amazing

    Joelle is really excellent to work with. We got her day of package and setup/take down service; but we were still in contact with her the entire time. Joelle gives you access to this great wedding planning software, which is really helpful. She also gives you recommendations to other vendors and is always available for questions. She’s very fun to work with and you can also trust her to take care of your big day. It was really nice on the day to have someone to run our event so we could just have fun. Joelle has different packages that can work for everyone. She also make wedding planning fun and less stressful. Would highly recommend.

    Incredible Human, Brilliant Wedding/Event Planner

    When we started to plan our wedding I thought, “I am a project manager. I plan every single day. I’ve got this no problem!” And boy was I wrong! I started scrolling Pinterest and Instagram, talking with bridesmaids and parents and realized that this wedding was going to be unlike anything I had ever planned because there are so many emotions and expectations that we weren’t anticipating and stress from not having an actual clue how to pull it all together let alone within a reasonable budget. Thankfully, I was already a long-time follower of Joelle and have seen some of the beautiful weddings she’s put together so gave her a call for a Joy Date.

    Let me tell you - this woman can work miracles! After listening to my ideas and getting an idea where we were at, she went to work figuring out our extralarge floorplan, gave me unique, Instagram-worthy décor ideas that will fit into our tight budget, problem solved some logistical issues, but more importantly, had us looking forward to our wedding day again. Her knowledge and experience in the industry was tremendously helpful. She rattled off answers to questions in minutes that I’d been stewing over for months. She gave us tips we never would have considered and solved problems before we even knew we had them. Her fun-loving personality and laid-back attitude had me feeling so much more relaxed and confident that it was all going to work out. I couldn’t recommend Joelle more if you’re planning a wedding or event!

    Best investment ever!

    Where do I start? We started planning our wedding back in September 2019 (2+ years prior to our actual wedding date) just before the pandemic hit. We hired our photographer, venue and catering company. I had been following Joelle (formerly Hitched by Joelle) for a while, thinking I could never afford a wedding planner (also how boujee of me to think I needed one when none of my friends did). We hit quite a few roadblocks with our venue which left me frustrated and lost. I convinced not only myself, but also my now husband to “just have a meeting” with Joelle. Well she quite literally swept us off our feet. It took one zoom meeting and one Starbucks coffee date and we were sold. We went with the VIP Wedding Day Management package and it was the best decision we ever made! Joelle helped us navigate the rollercoaster that is planning a wedding during a pandemic. Planning and creative vision was still in our control with the comfort of knowing we had our safety net of Joelle should we need her advice or expertise. Then as the month before our wedding crept closer and closer, we started to hand over the reigns and that is when the real magic of Joelle and her team takes over. Joelle and her team become your vendors’ point of contact, the keeper of your schedule and contracts and your overall best friend. Anything we needed answered or taken care of, it was a quick message to the team and consider it done. If there were any hiccups on the day of, we certainly did not know of it. Our venue reveal was nothing short of perfection, she took our vision and ran with it! Working with her makes you feel like you’re planning your wedding with your lifelong bestie. Her attention to detail, professionalism and enthusiasm for your ‘perfect’ day are just some of her amazing qualities; but maybe my favourite is her endless compassion for her stressed out pandemic brides.

    Okay so last night I was watching TV and a commercial came on that used the song "Kickstart my Heart by Motley Crue" and ALLLLL I COULD THINK ABOUT WAS YOU TWO!! 😂 Insert Liz + Perry bustin a move up and down the rows of their wedding reception as they make their grand entrance--the best!!

    Ohhhhh I'm so grateful you felt boujee enough to hire a wedding planner Liz!! I had such a blast working with the two of you and still can't get over how over the top obsesssssed Perry is with his bride. The memory of the way that dude looks at you is forever etched into my heart ❤️ I'm so glad I was able to run your wedding day and meet all of your friends and family but more importantly, I'm just so happy that you're married!! You both were so patient and it ended up being an incredible (yet chilly) day!

    Also, who knew I would fall in love with the Cover Girls song 😉 Cheers to you love birds 🥂 xo

    Hire This Girl. Have No Regrets.

    Joelle Tripp. What word can we use to describe our life once Joelle found her way into it? BOMB-FRIGGIN-TASTIC.
    We initially met with Joelle after joining up for her Bad Ass Brides membership, but it was far before that when I fell in love with this radiant lover of life and all things wedding.
    Every time we worked with Joelle, whether it was through the Bad Ass Brides group, our consult, our first “Hitched Hangout” as it was formerly called, or our actual full on wedding planning, we felt completely at ease with how our big day would all come together.
    Myself, I’m a planner. I organize bitchin’ parties and events socially and at my job, so I know what I like. That, coupled with the fact that my future husband is a chef, we had pretty high standards. But I also wanted to just sit back and enjoy the ride, so we handed complete creative control over to Joelle and her kick-ass team. Was I a little scared to just hand it all over? Uh, friggin’ yes. But let me tell you how absolutely AMAZING that all turned out to be for us.
    Stress? What stress? I was drinking White Claws and smokin’ Prime Times with my girls all week before the wedding, with absolutely not a care in the world because Joelle and Katelyn were absolute frigging rock stars. From the second they arrived, everyone was in love with these cool wedding planner cats!
    To be honest, when people asked me before the wedding what our décor was going to look like, all I could do really was shrug and brag about how I kept 80 cacti alive for 2 months. I had no idea what they were going to be for or what else was going to be going on top of or beside anything, but Joelle had this vision created, which I just let her run with, and she ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NAILED it.
    Did she create a cigar lounge? Yup. Did she help plant two 8 foot cacti in my mothers yard? Sure did. Did she touch base with every single vendor and build them a timeline? Yes she did my dudes. Did she pickup leaves and branches in 100km/h winds, and turn on the song that makes my husband cry like a baby for our first look, and bring me jello shots and build the absolute best wedding ever in history? Fuck yes she did.
    Joelle is a rockstar. She’s elbow grease and a paralyzer gettin’ shit done, and made for quite literally, the most memorable wedding our little town maybe has ever seen. “You’ve set a new standard for weddings in this town,” said one guest. “I don’t know what you paid her, but we would have paid her double,” said my dad. Have it be known, that I think if given the chance, my parents would trade me straight across for Joelle. They love her that much now.
    Hopefully the photos do all of this some justice, because this girl and her fabulous team, put every ounce of their souls into our day to make sure that every ounce of our souls were in complete bliss.
    Thank you, Joelle. Thank you for the time you put in and the thousands of texts and Voxxer messages you replied to at all hours, and the random video calls. And most importantly, thank you for letting our wedding day just be the best day we could have ever imagined, and complete perfection.

    And whether she likes it or not, Joelle has to now stay friends with me forever because she's that awesome.

    Joy By Joelle's reply:

    Ok but for real...how in the actual hell am I supposed to respond to this ESSAY Tayla?!?! 😂😂😂

    Here's my favorite line "Stress? What stress? I was drinking White Claws and smokin’ Prime Times with my girls all week before the wedding". I would also like to add "shooting stuff in the back 40 before rehearsal dinner." 😌

    Here's what I will say:
    1. You simply won't ever understand just how much it meant to me to have you and Charles' trust from day 1. You handed over the keys to your wedding day and pretty much said, "see you in September!" 🙏🏼This type of relationship does NOT happen often and I relished all the moments of designing and executing your wedding day. So thank YOU so much.

    2. I love (and owe) Neil.

    I love you both to the bottom of a bottle of Painted Donkey and back. I love that we are now forever friends. And I love that I got to witness two BDI's profess their love under a haze of cell phone flashlights down yonder in Bassano. Cheers to you both 🥂😘

    VIP wedding day management

    Joelle and her team (Katelyn and Anna) were nothing short of incredible for our wedding reception.

    We booked Joelle’s VIP wedding day management and started consulting with her approximately 10 months before our big day. Joelle was very friendly, engaging and excited from the get go to be involved in helping us plan our dream wedding.

    We had multiple meetings over Zoom and she even met me at Special Event Rentals to help coordinate a colour scheme and fine tune some of the ideas I wasn’t sure about. She was amazing in all that she did for us leading up to our reception, but I was the most impressed and thankful for all her team did in the week leading up to our day.

    The ladies couldn’t have done more for us, whether it was doing the entire set-up of our tented wedding for 180 people, picking up and dropping off necessary things we needed (even when it wasn’t what we hired them to do) and coordinating everything on the day of to a “T”.

    She is so talented at what she does and she takes all of the stress out of planning your most important day. There are so many great things I could continue to write about Joelle but will leave with this: if you want someone to take your stress away and do a perfect job in planning/coordinating/setting-up a wedding, I would recommend Joelle in a heartbeat. She is truly one of a kind and a badass bitch!🥰👏

    Joy By Joelle's reply:

    The biggest tented wedding guest list we've ever had to date--BOOM!! Frig your wedding was so much fun Mik 🙌🏼 I'm not sure if it was the tearing open of Joe's shirt or trying to nurse your bridesdude back to health (😂) that were the highlights LOL! Thank you so much for trusting me with your day and for all of your kind words. It seriously means so much to me that you took the time to leave this golden nugget of a review. Cheers to you and Joe 🥂 xo

    What a rockstar Joelle and her team have been throughout this season of covid, she is just what any bride needs during this time. Thankyou Joelle for your help in making our soon to be wedding that much easier to plan, and for my sanity. Book in with her for a Hitched Hangout ladies you wont regret any of it, she may even have an inside to saving you $$ on rentals! It might just pay for itself!

    Joy By Joelle's reply:

    Meagan!! You are BEYOND welcome my dear :) I had an absolute riot working on your wedding with you and can't even wait for it to go off this summer! So glad we were able to get so much done together xo

    The easiest 5 stars I've ever given!

    If you are wanting someone to guide you through years of wedding planning, or just to manage things the day-of, look no further guys. Seriously. I can't speak highly enough of our girl Joelle. She is a ray of sunshine with the energy to match! Her creativity, passion and willingness to go the extra mile was everything we were looking for and more in a planner.
