One of the BEST Wedding Decisions
•Verified review

As a bride planning a destination wedding, I can say without a doubt that Janelle was one of the best decisions we made. We hired her for month-of coordination, but she went so far beyond that. From our very first meeting, I could tell she had her stuff together. She clearly explained her services, asked thoughtful questions, offered specific examples of how she could support me, and was just overall very personable and got me excited about wedding planning. She really worked with us and tailored her package to meet our needs instead of offering a one-size-fits-all plan and she adjusted things along the way as new needs came up. When I couldn’t find a flower wall that worked for our vision or budget, Janelle didn’t just send over vendor links; she bought the flower wall we had been eyeing, so we could rent it directly from her. She also let us rent other decor, received and stored packages for us, and saved us the hassle of shipping or packing bulky items. That alone saved us so much time, money, and stress. About a week before the wedding, we hit a panic moment realizing we didn’t have a solid plan for getting alcohol to the venue (since the venue didn’t provide any). Without hesitation, Janelle stepped in. She helped us finalize our bar menu, handled the inventory, shopped for everything, and personally brought it to the venue. It wasn’t even a thought I had to think on the wedding day. She also coordinated guest transportation via a charter bus, since everyone flew into Florida. She managed vendor questions, even when they called or messaged me on the wedding day - I kindly sent them her way, and the problem was solved. She even helped with our pre- and post-wedding events. On the wedding day, Janelle and her team were everywhere: setting up decor, checking on vendors, handing out programs and petals, finding family, and even reminding me I almost walked down the aisle without my veil, then running to get it before my song started. (Shout out to Bianca @atouchofmerce for sprinting and saving the moment and being so helpful on that day!) Janelle even handled breakfast and lunch pick-up for me and the bridal party, and brought us coffee that morning, She took care of my late-night snack food deliveries and set up during the reception while still managing the timeline. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare. At the end of the night, she and her team packed everything up neatly and made sure all our belongings were accounted for, which was a godsend, mainly because no one in my family lived in Florida - everything needed to be accounted for Janelle let me and my husband actually enjoy our wedding. She’s organized, kind, fun, resourceful, and truly cares. WeI are both planners at heart, with backgrounds in events and operations. We went into this thinking we could handle it all, and we initially hired a coordinator just to ensure things flowed on the day-of. But Janelle turned out to be so much more than that. She helped us stay on track on the way, find solutions, and think through logistics in a way that felt collaborative, not overwhelming. And on the wedding day she and her team handled it all. We were so grateful to have had her by our side.

Janelle and her team were absolutely phenomenal! From the very beginning, they went above and beyond to make sure every detail of my wedding was perfect. They had an incredible range of resources for everything I needed, and their expertise truly brought my vision to life. What stood out most was how communicative and helpful Janelle was throughout the entire process. She was always available to answer questions, even if I needed to cold-call her at any time. Her responsiveness and dedication took so much stress off my plate, allowing me to fully enjoy my special day. Whether you’re planning a destination wedding or a local celebration in Central or South Florida, Janelle and her team are simply the best. I couldn’t have asked for a more supportive and talented wedding planner!

We had the most incredible experience working with Janelle and her team! From the very beginning, Janelle was with me every step of the way, offering her expertise and support. She spent hours helping us choose our venue, she carefully listened to our ideas and guided us to the ideal location that perfectly fit our vision. Her expertise didn’t stop there, Janelle helped us select the perfect color scheme and brought our dream wedding to life with a stunning, cohesive design. What really set her apart was her ability to seamlessly integrate event planning with gorgeous decor. Her company not only plans weddings but also designs, and the results were absolutely beautiful. She was an incredible help in choosing vendors. Janelle’s recommendations were spot-on, and we ended up with an amazing team of professionals who truly made our day even more magical. We can’t thank Janelle and her team enough for everything they did. I’m so grateful to have had them by our side throughout the planning process. Janelle went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was everything we dreamed of AND MORE! I highly recommend Heartz Unfold Events for any wedding or event planning.
