THE SYMBOLS
Jennifer’s reasoning for the pyramid or triangle was two-fold. It not only represents her Father’s Egyptian heritage but it is also the logo of her sorority, Sigma Kappa.

We were referred to Jennifer and I can honestly say our wedding truly wouldn't be what it was without her. Our situation was unique due to COVID. During that time we feel like we were always more than just a client with Jennifer. She hung in there with us during multiple reschedules, and virtual ceremonies, and was there 18 months later on our big day. Jennifer is organized and extraordinarily dedicated to her passion and craft. She is truly amazing. She thought about things we never considered, and was so helpful. The highlight of our time together came during a meeting with all our vendors. The photographer showed up, and she began a conversation with them. I walked over to join in, thinking I'd have thoughts or ideas to add, and found myself standing there not contributing anything that Jennifer hadn't already included. I nodded my head felt so confident in her planning and walked away.
Our big day was flawless. She was so awesome, our guests were like, "Who is that? She's awesome!" Near the end of the night, Jennifer was literally bussing tables!
She is so easy to work with and has great attention to detail. What she did for our day went over and beyond any expectations that we had.

"I have had the privilege to work with Jennifer for several years now and it continues to be one of the best experiences of my whole year. How can this pint-sized superhero with great hair do it all? She makes planning any event happy and stress-free.
Jennifer is kind, patient, honest, and looks out for you every step of the way. What you see is what you get. No surprises. Which is such a bonus for anyone who will have the pleasure to work with her. Also, if you want to stay on budget or need help in any way she will truly sort out every idea to accommodate you which I think makes her special. She never gives up and always tries to find a way.
The day of the event she makes everything smooth and carefree so you can actually enjoy yourself! Jennifer has integrity and she will work hard for you. I could not want for more in a fabulous planner. Don’t think twice about hiring her for any event. She is the mostest! "

“Where do we start!? Hiring Jennifer was absolutely one of the BEST decisions we made when planning our wedding. We have had the pleasure of knowing her for four years prior to our wedding. So, the decision to hire her was never a question. It was more of a MUST! Throughout the whole planning process she was not only an incredible planner with her attention to detail, but also an excellent friend, counselor, and industry professional. Jennifer went above and beyond and made us feel so important, every step of the way.
She handled everything so gracefully and professionally, and as the Bride and Groom, we couldn’t have asked for anything more! Her commitment to helping us through one of the most important and wonderful times in our lives will never be forgotten. The warmth and love that Jennifer showed our family and all of our guests was unmatched. She created the atmosphere that we were really looking for - laughter and love!
Jennifer is not only trustworthy through her organization, but she maintained it through her gracefulness, positive attitudes, and persistent composure.
We recommend Jennifer to absolutely everyone and anyone. She will not only be your saving grace for your big day, but also, become your true friend. We are so thankful to her for supporting us through one of the most amazing experiences of our lives and helping us create our dream wedding surrounded by all of our family and friends. Everyone is in awe of what she did and does, as well as, how she made our day so seamless and truly amazing. "

"I got in touch with Jennifer through my sister's wedding planner, and I contacted her in a time of great event distress - I wanted a big birthday party, my birthday was only weeks away, I didn't have a venue, and everything was falling apart!! Jennifer got to work immediately - she was honest about her hours and her fees, and she researched and found a venue for me which ended up working out perfectly, worked with my catering situation to get that all figured out, and was amazing about me wanting an eco-friendly event and working with me on that, including doing research and everything, and also found me a great DJ.
I'm SO glad that I found her, because the event went beautifully, I had a great time, and I didn't have to worry about a thing. Having someone who has it all handled and knows what to do and how to go about things, what questions to ask and how to get things going, is so helpful and wonderful to have. Thanks, Jennifer - I couldn't have done it without you!!"
