I DO Planning 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
South River, NJ
  • Planner
  • Offers 5 services
  • Starts at $750

I DO Planning is a boutique Wedding & Event Planning firm based at the Jersey Shore. We offer a modern, high-touch approach to planning for couples who value thoughtful design, clear communication, and an impeccably run event. We specialize in tented weddings, private properties, and non-traditional venues, turning blank spaces into intentional, elevated celebrations. Our planning style is hands-on, organized, and honest.

From our very first meeting with Brielle, I knew we had made the right choice. After every call with my daughter and Brielle, I’d immediately turn to my daughter and say, “Wow… we absolutely could not do this without Brielle!” As the mother of an only child, I knew we had one shot to get everything right—and I hadn’t planned a wedding since the 1980s, so help was definitely needed! Brielle brought my daughter’s vision to life flawlessly and made sure the day was nothing short of magical. With my husband’s health challenges, the team kept the schedule flexible and stress-free while still keeping everything perfectly on track. Every vendor Brielle recommended was fantastic, and the entire team took such wonderful care of our family. I am forever grateful to Brielle for making the magic happen and giving us a day we will cherish forever!

WOW, SPECTACULAR, AMAZING, FANTASTIC…These are all words we would use to describe Chris and all of Limitless Entertainment. We had the pleasure of booking Chris for our wedding during his busy schedule and we could not have made a better choice. He made sure we had everything we wanted and more! From providing music for our ceremony, reception, and after party, to all the amazing details including dancing on the clouds, cold sparklers, CO2 gun (my favorite), handouts, all kinds of lighting that really set the scene, as well as Photo Booth for our guests to help us capture the evening! He was a one stop shop which made it incredibly easy to work with only one vendor for all of our entertainment needs. He ensured all of our music was exactly what we wanted and did a fantastic job MC’ing the evening. He is incredibly personable and has a fantastic “whatever you need” attitude which ensured our day was as perfect as could be! I cannot recommend him enough for all your DJ/Entertainment needs!

Dragonfly Flowers was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From our very first conversation, Laura was positive, collaborative, and energetic. Her attention to detail and imaginative approach resulted in floral arrangements that were not only visually stunning, but also deeply meaningful. Laura took the time to understand our spring garden wildflower vision, sharing pictures and examples to ensure she captured exactly what we were looking for. On the day of the wedding, she went above and beyond, using leftover greenery to elevate our ceremony backdrop in a way we never could have imagined. It is so clear how much Laura loves flowers and people - she even included a handwritten card explaining the significance of each flower in my bouquet.

We’re big believers that it’s the little details, thoughtful choices, and behind the scenes care that end up making the biggest difference on your wedding day, and that mindset guides everything we do!

Awarded Best of Zola
Jenna and Amalia were absolutely amazing leading up to and through our wedding weekend. In the weeks beforehand they did a great job keeping us organized, tying up loose ends, mocking up decor, communicating with many vendors, and finding us a last minute videographer within budget. We had many moving parts during our wedding weekend and they were behind the scenes ninjas making sure that everything looked stunning and people were where they needed to be. From the first meeting we could feel their authenticity and care for making our wedding everything we wanted it to be, and they delivered that and more. They always made themselves available to us throughout the process and never made us feel like we were behind or unprepared though sometimes we definitely were. Our wedding weekend had numerous events, cultural moments, vendors, and moving parts especially because it was a summer camp-Indian-Peruvian-fusion wedding, but nothing seemed to dim this team’s ambition. Jenna’s enthusiasm and excitement were always a source of light and encouragement for us in some of the tougher days leading up to the wedding and Amalia’s cool demeanor and get stuff done attitude moved everything along with ease. Despite the tight schedule and challenges we threw at them, Jenna and Amalia made both me and my husband feel grounded after every interaction. Seeing their smiling faces in the crowd during the weekend events was always a source of comfort. They make an incredibly balanced and capable team. PS they were so great with our pup too!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very beginning, Park Château made the entire wedding process feel like an absolute dream. The moment I stepped onto the grounds for the first time, I knew it was the perfect venue—I could already picture our wedding day there. As a Type A bride, I deeply appreciated how responsive and helpful Devin was throughout planning. Every question I had was answered quickly, and every concern met with care. The team was incredibly accommodating, honoring the vision we had for a meaningful, multicultural celebration. They worked with us to alter the stations so I could incorporate my Filipino heritage and allowed us to bring in soju to represent my husband’s Korean culture. Every request, no matter how detailed, was thoughtfully considered—it genuinely felt like their mission was to bring our dreams to life. On the day of the wedding, the service was impeccable. From the moment we arrived, we were treated like royalty. Danielle kept us relaxed by constantly checking on us, keeping the suite clean, steaming dresses last-minute, and making sure we were well-fed and comfortable. Once we were ready, Jeremiah and Justin took care of my husband and me with such attention, joy, and professionalism that we never once had to think or worry about a thing. They truly went above and beyond!! They made sure our hair was never out of place, carried my lipstick for touch-ups, managed my train, cape-veil with ease, shaded me from the sun, and brought cold water (with a straw for makeup!) every 30 minutes. When my dress got dirty during photos (which I was mentally prepared for!), they were on the ground scrubbing it clean and blow-drying it dry—both of them. Later on the dance floor, they cooled me down with a cold cloth and made sure I stayed hydrated, all while keeping the energy light and fun. I could go on and on because these were just a few things they took care of for us that day! They made us laugh, checked in on us emotionally, and truly felt like part of our celebration. Their presence made the day even more magical. Our guests were blown away—not just by the sheer amount of food, but by the quality and taste of everything, from cocktail hour to dinner to the drinks. Everyone thought the grounds and venue were so beautiful and it all ran so smoothly! We've had so many guests tell us it was one of the best weddings they've ever attended, and we couldn’t agree more. Park Château truly knows what they’re doing. I wish I could relive the day all over again—it was absolutely perfect. Thank you to the entire Park Château team for giving us a wedding day beyond our wildest dreams.

We cannot say enough good things about Shelby! She is one of the warmest and kindest people we have ever met. I HATE being photographed, and my husband and I cannot tolerate being the center of attention. Somehow, she made the wedding photo shoot so enjoyable that we were sad to leave. She provided plenty of ideas for where to shoot and how to pose. She took our feedback regarding the look and feel we wanted for our photos, and they look GORGEOUS! Shelby possesses a remarkable ability to make you feel at ease, and she loves what she does, which is evident in her pictures. Again, it is impossible to say enough good things!

Jing was the best florist I could've imagined. I had a very specific vision for my florals and Jing helped bring it to life. In the planning process, she helped me make what I wanted work within my budget, never pressuring me to add more or saying what I wanted was impossible (an insane claim I heard from other florists who wanted more money). She encouraged me to use florals from my ceremony during my reception and they came out beautifully. She decorated my sweet heart table with all of our bouquets. Everything held up wonderfully and many guests took flowers home. I can't recommend Jing and Hexacres florals enough!!!

I’m a drummer, a mother of two amazing kids, and a proud owner of an 80lb Samoyed. My passion for photography is deeply influenced by my family legacy—my grandmother was a dedicated full-time photographer who spent her life capturing and hand-coloring her own images. Growing up immersed in her art has profoundly shaped my own approach to photography. As a photographer, I'd love to capture the journey of two people in love, telling the genuine and touching story of their life together. I strive to create images that convey heartfelt narratives and reflect the true essence of your relationship and the moments you share.

Awarded Best of Zola
We LOVED doing our engagement photos with Momo! She was lovely and communicative throughout the whole process. When the forecast called for rain, she offered to reschedule, which I thought was really nice. Both my fiance and I are usually a little shy behind the camera but Momo made us so comfortable and it was easy to forget she was even there sometimes. Afterwards, my fiance couldn’t stop talking about how much fun he had (“I just got to kiss you for an hour!”). She was also great with our big, goofy dog. The pictures, which she sent in two days, exceeded all our expectations. They are so amazing and special for us to have, and everyone is gushing about them! We couldn’t be happier we went with Momo.

They managed to capture not only the big moments but also the little ones that made our wedding unique and unforgettable. We are so grateful for their hard work and dedication! They made sure to get each shot we asked for. If you’re looking for photographers who will go above and beyond to capture your day beautifully, we highly recommend Jenn & Ro. They made our wedding day memories timeless!

Ashley is so talented! We knew each other before hand from school so I knew I wanted her to do my make up. We did a trial a few months before to see how we wanted to practice for the day of at her studio which was super convenient. We were able to make a few adjustments if needed. On my wedding day, she came so prepared and was able to do 9 girls in a fair amount of time. She even left me with a little lipstick to reapply after she left. I absolutely loved my make up, it was natural but classy without being caked on and I still felt like myself. I truly enjoy her company and her services. Her prices were very fair especially due to her certifications and experience. I've recommended her to many and my sister is even going to use her for her wedding!
