Awarded Best of Zola
We had a great experience working with Jade Events and Co. Kayla was our day of coordinator (which really was like month-of assistance plus day-of coordination). From our first conversation, she gave great guidance, was very organized and thoughtful. Even though I was pretty organized myself, I was constantly worried about missing something obvious because wedding planning was so foreign to me. She helped talk through our random questions and find solutions (including on the day). She seemed a little quiet/nervous handling some of our more bold family members but ultimately did well! Kayla also worked seamlessly with our other vendors. She was kind and overall a delight to work with!

We’ve been using Justina as our photographer since we got engaged. I knew she was featured at the best family photographer in Wilmington, and even before kids, I loved her style so much that I knew I just had to have her! She has been capturing moments for our family for the past 4 years, and I always recommend her to everyone I talk to (although hesitantly - sometimes I selfishly want to keep her all to myself). I couldn’t imagine a better photographer for our wedding. She accommodated every single request, knew what I needed before I even knew what I wanted, and sometimes has few a secret spots up her sleeve. She had a vision that exceeded my expectations, all while capturing all of my requests - every single time. I cherish all of the sweet moments she was able to capture, including the precious time with my mother getting dressed, the first look with my husband, the tears in my eyes as we read our vows, my bridesmaids bowing their heads during prayer, my uncle choking up as he expressed how words cannot describe how much we miss my father, the pure bliss displayed by my mother-in-law as she danced with my husband, not to mention all the surprises I didn’t notice until viewing the photos - our friends on the dance floor, the kids who made funny faces during dinner, the friends who passed out on chairs because they didn’t want to miss out on the fun. I could go on and on. These things don’t happen by accident, and I wouldn’t want anyone else to capture these memories for us.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about our wedding planner, Chris, and the incredible job she did for our daughter’s wedding in Charleston. Our daughter's wedding ceremony and reception were in 2 locations (a church and a venue) and Chris managed both beautifully! From start to finish, her professionalism was unmatched—she was organized, detail-oriented, and handled every aspect of the planning process with confidence and grace. Her communication was excellent throughout. She was always responsive, clear, and proactive, which gave us such peace of mind during what could have been a stressful time. We always felt informed and supported every step of the way. She truly went above and beyond what I expected! Most importantly, the quality of her work was truly exceptional. She brought our daughter’s vision to life beautifully, managing every detail seamlessly so that the entire weekend felt effortless and special. Everything ran smoothly, and we were able to fully enjoy the celebration without worry. We are beyond grateful for her dedication and talent, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an outstanding wedding planner. When the time comes for my sons to marry, I will be recommending Chris to their fiances. It was so hard to let go of what I called a "fast and fun friendship"! - Mother of the Bride
