A Jewel in the wedding planning world! Highly recommended!

I knew Julie was the perfect fit to help us plan our big day from the moment we began our first conversation. Julie is genuinely so kind, attentive and down to earth. My husband and I felt like we were prioritized and so very well taken care of right from the beginning of the planning process, to the rehearsal day and most importantly, our wedding day. Even the day after when she delivered some items to us that were left at the wedding venue, she really goes over and above! Julie was always one step ahead of us with any aspect of the planning, always looking ahead and communicating with us throughout the whole process. She handled any changes effortlessly, shifting schedules, seating maps, transportation arrangements (you name it!) efficiently and professionally. Julie was always available for a call to set my mind at ease, she responded to emails quickly using clear communication to answer all of the questions that I had. She easily liaised with all of the vendors involved and literally orchestrated a day that was well beyond our expectations, it was magical. We did not have one worry or concern on our day, leaving us to fully enjoy and embrace our family and friends. I highly recommend Julie for your wedding and planning!

Exceptional Wedding Coordinator!

Our wedding coordinator, Julie, was an absolute rockstar! From the moment we met her, we knew we were in good hands.

Julie effortlessly managed every detail, ensuring that our special day ran smoothly from start to finish. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and organizational skills were truly impressive. But what truly sets her apart is her genuine care and dedication to making our wedding day perfect.

Thank you so much Julie, we were able to relax and enjoy every moment of our wedding day without worrying about a thing. You went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, and we are incredibly grateful.

If you’re looking for a wedding coordinator who will exceed your expectations and turn your wedding dreams into reality, look no further than Julie. She is simply the best!

Month-of coordination with deep experience & skill, beautiful aesthetics & fun!

We hired Jewel Events for our month-of wedding coordination, and Julie and the team wildly exceeded all of our expectations. We initially picked Jewel Events based on their stellar references and lovely personalities. Julie brings a sense of happiness and joy to her work that was really special. You can tell she really loves weddings, and does this work for all the right reasons.

In the month before the big day -- just as our wedding planning was starting to feel stressful -- Julie took over and made everything better. She handled final vendor confirmations and helped finalize our timeline, among countless other helpful services.

The night before our wedding, she ran our rehearsal with consummate expertise. Julie managed to fit everything into a short time-window and made it feel fun and exciting for everyone. Then, she helped troubleshoot (and fixed!) a last-minute confusion between other vendors, while we were free to enjoy our Friday-night welcome drinks.

Finally, on the wedding day, Julie and her teammate, Isabel, made our space look absolutely beautiful, ran the day flawlessly, and helped all our guests have an amazing time. Their tear-down services let us have a phenomenal after-party without worrying about cleaning up.

My now-husband and I could rave about Jewel events endlessly. If you’re looking for an expert wedding coordinator & team with a wonderful attitude, Jewel Events is the group for you!
