    Beyond my wildest dreams

    Jessy and Laurence are the ideal wedding planners. The biggest testament to their meticulous approach is the fact that everything went according to plan on our wedding day, which was the day that Rogers was down across the country and no one was reachable by phone.

    I debated for a while whether to chose the month of coordination or their full wedding planning package and I'm so glad that I chose the latter. Having the ladies of STORI events with me from day one, with their level of taste and expertise, helped me translate my fragmented ideas into a fully developed and refined vision. It was such a genuine joy to work with them. They took all the stress out of the planning and were incredibly patient as I explored different ideas.

    On they day of the wedding, they were on top of absolutely everything and allowed my husband and I to fully enjoy ourselves and make everlasting memories on our special day.

    Thank you so much ladies for all that you did. You were both an integral part of that day and I'm super grateful to you both!

    Jessy and Laurence are INCREDIBLE.

    I wish I could give more stars!!

    Jessy and Laurence are INCREDIBLE. We worked with them to plan our wedding and this review wont come close to doing justice to how amazing they are.

    From the moment we started working together I knew we were in good hands. They worked with our vendors, gave amazing advice and made the day of the wedding so calm and smooth.

    They have this amazing ability to somehow make us feel like our event was unique and special, but also giving us confidence that they've seen it all before and nothing could phase them.

    If you're considering booking Jessy and Laurence for your event, I cannot recommend them enough, it will be the single best thing you can do to make your event amazing.

    STORI Events's reply:

    One of the most beautiful parts of our job is being invited to share a very special day in people's lives. Emma and Olsi's wedding had us flooded with emotions, the magnitude of love and magic on this day was truly incredible!
    We are so grateful to have met you both, and we hope our paths cross again very soon. Thank you for the extra love during this busy time! We appreciate you both very much and look forward to keeping in touch for years to come as your life progresses together! Sending virtual hugs!!!!

    Amazing experience!

    My now husband and I got married last month, and we have said multiple times that the best money we spent on the wedding was Laurence and Jessy at Stori Events. Although we hired them for ‘month of coordination,’ Laurence and Jessy were in touch and available during the whole planning process and were invaluable when it came to answering our many questions, anticipating possible pandemic stressors and putting our minds at ease. On the big day it poured rain, and we’ve never seen two people jump into action faster while remaining so attentive and composed. They made sure to include us in the big decisions while protecting us from the inconsequential stressors, which allowed us to relax and enjoy ourselves despite the chaos around us. We always knew we were in good hands with them and the wedding day really proved that they are able to respond to whatever is thrown at them. Laurence and Jessy are approachable, knowledgeable, super organized and above all, hustlers! If you pick them, which we highly recommend you do, you won’t regret it.

    STORI Events's reply:

    Thank you so much for your sweet words Stephanie! Getting to know you and Robert was one of the best highlights of the year. You are both so lovely and we adore you. We are so looking forward to keeping in touch for years to come as your life together progresses! XOXO

    Highly Recommend Stori Events!!

    My wife and I hired Stori for “month of coordination” for our wedding, and it was honestly the best decision. We had a general idea of what we wanted, but needed help putting it all together. From our very first meeting with Jessy and Laurence, we could tell they had a lot of experience planning all types of weddings. They brought up things we would have never even thought of, and we knew we could trust them with handling all the details to ensure our dream wedding came true.

    Then the coronavirus came and shut everything down. We decided to postpone our wedding by a year because we thought that should be enough time for things to return to normal. Boy, were we wrong… LOL. Anyways, Jessy and Laurence were amazing throughout the experience. They kept checking in on us every month. Making sure we were doing well, staying on top of our monthly to do check list and answering any questions/concerns we had around the ever-changing pandemic guidelines. I can’t imagine how difficult it must have been for them as well.

    It’s the month of the wedding, and it was amazing to see all our planning come together in the run of show they prepare. This is the most detailed document I have ever seen! The entire day planned out from start to finish, with everyone’s responsibilities clearly laid out. In the month of, Jessy and Laurence also take over full communication with all our vendors. Making sure any last-minute details are taken care of and that everyone is on the same page.

    We finally made it to the big day, and we couldn’t have felt more at ease knowing Jessy and Laurence have every detail taken care of. We were able to fully enjoy our special day, with all our closest friends and family, stress free. We just showed up and everything went as planned! We can’t image this day without the help of our friends Jessy and Laurence from Stori Events! We are forever grateful to them and would 100% recommend them to anyone planning a wedding or event!

    STORI Events's reply:

    Ann Rose and Tim, we appreciate you and miss you both! Your wedding was so very special and we were honoured that we got to help bring your vision to life. Thank you for your kind words and continuing support. Can't wait for the next big event! Sending virtual hugs.

    The best decision we made related to our wedding was hiring Stori

    We can't say enough great things about Jessy and Laurence. They helped us make it through a very stressful period after many changes that had to take place due to the pandemic. We are super happy with the final result.

    During the planning stage, Jessy and Laurence provided great suggestions around vendors. When one of the vendors we hired on our own, fell through, the next day Jessy already had 10 recommendations lined up and ready to take a call. I was so impressed with the quickness in their responses and ability to just turn it around. I don't know how they have time to manage all that they do.

    Leading up to the event, they created a super thorough ROS and were flexible in making adjustments as things changed. Everyone commented on how detailed it was. They also did proper check ins with our vendors and that helped everything go smoothly on the actual day.

    On the actual event day is really when they shined, stick handling everything related to our venue and vendors. All in all, if you need wedding planners, Stori is amazing at what they do. We had another planner prior and it was a clear difference how much better Jessy and Laurence are...even though the other one was highly rated as well. I have very high expectations and Stori was able to meet it.

    STORI Events's reply:

    Thank you, Teresa and Tim, for such a thoughtful review! It was an absolute delight working with you both and seeing your vision come to life on one of the most beautiful days, was incredible. Thank you for choosing to work with us! Being part of your wedding was truly an honour. We can't wait to hear of all of the amazing things you do together! Much love, Stori Team. xo

    They are TRULY wonderful!

    We miss these incredible ladies dearly!! Jessy and Laurence were our month of/day of coordinators but they went above and beyond to ensure our planning was going smoothly. They were a huge support during this season in our life especially nearing the big day. From beginning to end they did their job thoroughly helping us with any little queries we might have had and always being there for us. Even in the chaos of our wedding time, they were so very professional and understanding, and extremely organized which was perfect for keeping us in check.
    If you want to go into your wedding season without having to worry about how you’re going to get all the little details come together we highly HIGHLY recommend you work with this dream team. They make everything run seamlessly, and even calculate room for error in case anything does go wrong ;) Their attention to detail is beyond anything we’ve ever seen - they really want to make your big day and what you are envisioning COME TO LIFE. ♡♡♡ - L+M

    They are fantastic!

    The STORI girls are fantastic. They are equipped to give you all the tools needed to plan your big day. They are kind, thoughtful, and patient; all the qualities we were hoping to find in wedding planners! In the end there were some weather complications, but STORI handled every challenging moment with confidence, which helped everyone stay cool, calm and collected throughout the day. We would highly suggest this team, they made everything easier and a pleasure to plan.

    Stori Events

    I was living in Asia at the time that I was planning to have our wedding destination in Canada. I have never been to Canada (I know it’s crazy) that’s why I think of our wedding as “wedding impossible”. Thankfully, I found Stori events at the wedding wire.

    It’s crazy how the team managed to make everything work with the little span of time for planning (less than a month!), how they managed to communicate through e-mail without any delay nor miscommunications despite the 12-hour time difference, and how they were very flexible with our cancellation/change of wedding date.

    They provided me with every option, made sure every little detail is what I wanted. They are indeed the dream team of every bride could wish for!

    I can’t put into words how thankful I am that they made my dream wedding come true.

    If I had to re-do our wedding all over again, I will still choose Jessy and Laurence as my wedding planners! :)

    Don't look any further! Seriously...

If you are looking for a organized, flexible, knowledgeable and just overall lovely planner that will take the stress out of wedding planning the STORI team is absolutely for you!

    The wedding planners you NEED

    Without Stori Events (Jessy and Laruence) our wedding would not be the perfect wedding that it was. From start to finish they were there to help guide us through our planning. They were super organized, extremely thorough with the wedding details (things that we never would have thought of), and able to handle any situation we had for them. They were able to sort out a last minute stressful emergency with our venue, and without them we would have been lost. They were there for us every step of the way, and they truly cared about what we wanted/needed.

    We were always 100% confident in them the entire way, and this made us feel so easy and stress free going into our wedding. Jessy and Laurence always responded to our emails/calls within minutes, and were so attentive. We will continue to recommend them to everyone we know who is getting married. We highly recommend them to anyone reading this review; they will make your wedding perfect!

    STORI Events's reply:

    Olivia and Leonard, thank you so much for taking the time to leave this lovely review, it means a great deal to us! Thank you for allowing us to be part of this very special day! :) We miss y'all and wish you all the love and happiness on your new journey as newlyweds. Sending virtual hugs. xo
