SAYING

"Without a shadow of a doubt, engaging Jen as our wedding planner was the best decision we made throughout our entire wedding journey. We were drawn to Jen because of her beautifully styled weddings and glowing reviews, and we couldn’t have asked for anything more from her services. We were acutely aware that planning a 200-person, marquee wedding was not for the faint hearted but Jen absolutely rose to the occasion. The brief we initially gave Jen was to create an elegant, hydrangea filled, fairytale wedding, and quite simply, she turned out to be our fairy godmother in bringing it to life.

Every step of the way, Jen has been extremely organised, giving us gentle nudges when needed and endless guidance, hints and tips when making decisions. Jen has a unique ability in that she doesn’t have to shout, or be the loudest person in the room, to get things done. Her calm and quiet manner, coupled with her infinite patience and ability to say the right thing at the right time gave us confidence and reassurance throughout. This was particularly important when we had to postpone due to the pandemic, and she seamlessly navigated us through the chaos. As we approached the big day, Jen, Sam and their team were so professional, working tirelessly to ensure everything was just perfect. By the time of our wedding day, we joked that there should be a hashtag “#thankgodforjen” because those were the words we found ourselves repeating time and time again

We cannot thank Jen and Sam enough for their kindness, professionalism, hard-work, patience and friendship over the past 2 years and for giving us the fairytale wedding we had dreamed of. We will be forever grateful."

- Sophia & Jonathan

No words express how grateful we are to have found Jen. Jen is a fantastic wedding planner, confidant, and fairy godmother who makes dreams come true. Stephen and I live in California but knew we wanted to get married in the Cotswolds. When we first found Jen via her website, we were immediately impressed with her attention to detail, creativity demonstrated in her beautiful work and professionalism. We had previously met with other wedding planners but were not drawn to them like we were with Jen. We knew we had found our wedding planner within the first few minutes of meeting with Jen. She was kind, friendly, and highly knowledgeable. The entire planning process was so smooth and easy! We would tell Jen what we envisioned, and she would come back with these fantastic briefs that went above and beyond what we even thought but still closely reflected us and what we wanted. When I asked Jen for an Italian wedding cake, which is not typical in the English countryside, she told me not to worry. She found us a marvelous baker/cake designer who created a beautiful Italian wedding-style cake for our wedding. That is only one example of how Jen goes above and beyond! When we couldn't make the trip across the pond to the UK for our food tasting, Jen and Sam kindly went for us to help guide us with the decision-making process. Jen helped me find amazing vendors, review the wedding contracts, build my website, and even went to tour venues and sent us videos of the tours to help us pick a venue.

Words are not enough to describe how incredible our wedding was. Jen and Sam were there the day before the wedding to help set up the welcome dinner and the entire day (from early AM to late night) of the wedding. The decor, the florals, the music, and the smoothness of the transitions from ceremony to cocktail hour were perfection. We will forever feel so thankful to Jen and Sam for all their hard work in making our wedding day the best day of our lives. 

jessica & Stephen

Jen and Sam are truly deserving of the highest praise. They brought together our day in a way that felt incredibly authentic to us, but executed to a level far beyond our own capabilities. The professionalism, flexibility and attention to detail they have is truly unrivalled. We received so many compliments from guests about how impressed they were with all the little details, and moreover how relaxed we both were on the day. We had total trust and confidence in Jen and Sam that we really felt able to let go and savour every moment of our wedding. Jen’s ability to deal with our indecision and other last minute changes was incredibly professional and we felt so well catered for. Jen’s styling and vision was also absolutely amazing. We couldn’t believe how well our choices all pulled together. it was simply beautiful.
The list of suppliers Jen provided was phenomenal. We wouldn’t have changed anything - they all added to our day in their own way and were wonderful to work with. We, and all our guests, absolutely loved our wedding - so many commented it was the best they’d ever attended. We feel so very lucky to have had Jen and Sam make it everything it was. They have such a special partnership and we’ll never forget all they contributed to our perfect weekend. 

Becks & Matt

Our dream London destination wedding wouldn’t have been possible without Jen and Sam, and their amazing team. Jen was wonderful to work with from the start; she is incredibly hardworking, detail oriented, easy to communicate with and always quick to respond despite the time difference of us living in Hong Kong and messaging at strange hours. She really took on the stress of wedding planning for us when we couldn’t easily visit venues or coordinate with vendors. She had endless amounts of patience when it came to the planning, and the team were extremely organized on the days of our events. We were able to enjoy our wedding to the fullest as they had everything under control and we trusted them completely.

Huge thank you to Jen and Sam for planning our best day ever!

Jenn & Joe

We cannot thank you enough for helping us create the wedding of our dreams. You made the whole planning experience enjoyable and the wedding day was completely faultless. We have had so many messages from our guests saying it was the best wedding they have ever been to, and that is all down to you! Your attention to detail and calm, kind and friendly nature really does make you the perfect and BEST wedding planner ever. Thank you a million times over we couldn’t have done it without you.

Rebecca & Henry

I have so much I want to say but let me just start with a massive thank you! When I decided I needed help with bringing this wedding to life, never in my wildest dreams did we expect to find someone as amazing as you. From the first phone call and proposal later that day, I knew we had stumbled across magic and that really is what you created. Thank you for going above and beyond for us. From late night emails, to helping with my veil on the day, you live and breathe weddings and planning and we count ourselves lucky that we had you for ours! Thank you for all you’ve done, 

Ashleigh & Dan

Jen, we just wanted to say a MASSIVE thank you! The wedding was more than I could have ever dreamed of, it was perfection and that’s all down to you! Your hard work, kindness and calm energy I am in awe of. Everyone kept saying “They need a Jen in their life” and I couldn’t agree more. What you have done for George and I, we will be forever grateful. You are both incredible and once again THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! If you couldn’t tell already I had the best day of my life and so much of that is down to you. 

 

Rachel & George

“Words cannot describe the magic that took place on our wedding day. Although we spent nearly 2 years creating this vision, seeing it come to life exceeded all expectations. It was everything we wanted and more! The flowers, décor, styling and fireworks were perfection but more importantly, Jen’s organisational skills and eye to detail is second to none.

Jen is positive, caring and full of passion! She always answered our questions promptly and honestly, and whenever we weren’t sure how to proceed or resolve some delicate or tricky issues that popped up along the way, her advice always put us at ease. She always had our back, through covid and all!

Daniel and I are still on cloud 9, and have been reliving our day through pictures, conversations with friends, and wonderful memories. Working with Jen was a pleasure, she made the process easy, fun, and stress-free. Jen, you are the best and we can’t thank you enough!

- Wided & Daniel

"In choosing a wedding planner, we knew that we wanted someone professional, determined, kind, trustworthy, creative, and supportive. These are the exact words that we’d use to describe Jen.

Planning a wedding during Covid certainly had its challenges-we had 4 different venues, and 3 dates, but from start to finish Jen was there, helping us navigate it all. Her calmness is unmatched and despite all the uncertainty we never felt the need to worry! We had a really clear vision of what we wanted for our day, and Jen was determined to make sure we had the best micro wedding possible.

Jen is such a great listener which was really important to my husband and I. We knew from the very first call that she would take all our ideas onboard and make our dreams come true. And they did! We had the most beautiful spring wedding, with Jen and her team handling every single detail. We’re so glad that we chose Jen as our wedding planner, and working with her will always hold a special place in our hearts."

- Frederika & Ben

"The evening after our wedding we sat and started reminiscing on the weekend and came to the realisation that for us, it was perfect. We then quickly realised that this was all due to Jen! We feel beyond privileged to have found someone so creative, detail orientated and kind to bring our ideas to life. We knew Jen would create a beautiful aesthetic for the weekend, but what meant the most for us is she really understood the experience we wanted to capitulate for our guests and that exceed our expectations. She really listened to everything we said and somehow pulled it together in the most beautiful way.

For any couples considering working with Jen we have two pieces of advice.

1- Stop thinking and book her! She will make planning a dream and over the celebration you will get to enjoy yourselves knowing everything is taken care of.

2- Take her word for it! If Jen can see it working, trusts a supplier or thinks there’s a better way to do things- trust her! She’ll be right!

Our wedding would not have been the same without JLW. We’ll forever be grateful to what she created for us."

- Lucy & Ross

"At the start, we debated whether we even needed a wedding planner. Our wedding in northern Italy would have to be postponed until safer times, so we decided on something small for the UK given the circumstances in 2020. I thought wedding planners were reserved for the wealthy or destination wedding. They're not. They are the people you need to make sure your day meets all of your dreams (even if you have no idea where to start!) and that it runs so smoothly you don't even know when there's chaos going on behind the scenes.

Like most brides, I underestimated the amount of work that goes into a wedding. Every single detail. And the magic comes from these details, they make the wedding one to remember. When I first spoke to Jen about our small simple wedding I was so nervous because my wedding had to be so small (during peak covid times) I was desperate for it not to feel like an empty wedding. I needed little surprises everywhere to make us, and our guests feel special and to put aside the pandemic going on around us just for one day. This is exactly what Jen worked so tirelessly to create with me. She knew exactly what we needed. I started off with 'maybe some flowers' in my brief and within days I was asking for fireworks, full 7 course menu, exquisite cocktails, the most incredible flower display (Princess Eugenie, I see you!) and everything in between. Our venue was a blank canvas and she made it all possible

Jen’s understanding of what we wanted, her attention to detail, connections with suppliers, amazing response times and ability to make it actually happen on the day were all outstanding. And she is truly wonderful to work with. She never pushed me or hounded me to make decisions . I am inherently not very organised and probably a bit lazy when it comes to any kind of admin, Jen is the opposite. She's the most organised and efficient person I've ever met and dealt with everything in her stride. We were met with many difficult situations in trying to organise a socially distanced Covid compliant wedding with ever changing government rules. Jen handled it all like a pro. Two weeks before our wedding day our whole wedding was cancelled due to Covid. She helped us work through our options and never once pushed us during a very difficult time. With 7 days’ notice our wedding was back on and she still made it happen! Incredible. Amazing. Jen is an excellent wedding planner and someone I now count as a friend, through her support she made all of our wedding dreams possible. If you are in any doubt as to whether you need a wedding planner, think again, she was 100% the best money we spent in our entire wedding and could not have done it without her."

- Eloise & Michael

"We cannot recommend and sing Jen’s praises enough! When we first got in touch with her for help, we could never have imagined just how much we would come to rely on her. Planning a wedding during a pandemic was challenging enough but with the added complication of planning one in the Cotswolds when we live nearly 200 miles away from our wedding venue, made things even more difficult. So having Jen there to pull everything together was completely invaluable.

From the first conversation we knew that Jen completely understood the look and feel we wanted for the day. Her impeccable taste and eye for detail shone through right from the start and we knew that she would create something really special for us. The beautiful mood boards she designed for us ensured that we had a clear idea throughout of how all of the different décor and styling elements we had chosen would work together. This was one of our biggest worries as Covid prevented us from doing many meetings or visits to our suppliers or the venue itself. So having this to refer back to as we went along was totally invaluable.

The day itself was more than we could’ve ever imagined, every detail was perfect. And although the wedding was small in guest numbers, it didn’t feel like a single thing had been compromised. The whole day was full of unique and beautiful touches, which made it really personal to us as a couple and an incredibly special experience for every one of our guests. Even when we encountered a problem with the photographers we had booked, on the day, Jen had found a replacement photographer within an hour and ensured we didn’t miss out on those precious photographs. She is nothing short of a miracle worker!

Jen is an incredible person, and hiring her was the best decision we made throughout the whole wedding planning process and we could not have done it without her.

Thank you so much Jen! x"

- Sophie & Oliver

We felt so privileged to work with Jen throughout our wedding planning journey. Especially during a time where there was a lot of uncertainty. Jen’s professional, calm and intuitive nature allowed us to feel at ease throughout the entire process. All the calls, texts, emails and seeing Jen and her team work their absolute socks off on the day made us feel so incredibly lucky. I definitely got my princess moment and that’s all down to Jen! I cannot recommend her enough to anyone. If you are looking for someone with meticulous attention to detail & someone who goes above and beyond with great pride, Jen is your woman!

Jen, we cannot thank you enough for what you did for us (especially your patience….). You will always be a big part of that moment and for that we are so incredibly grateful to have found you.

- Liz & Hector

Organising our wedding was a true test of organisation, determination and resilience. We could not have done it without Jen! With covid throwing a spanner in the works, as it did for so many couples, we had 8 months to organise a UK wedding, during a pandemic, with the bride, groom and many guests in a red-listed country.

Jen was patient and positive and kept us focussed and motivated through all of the curveballs that the constant restriction changes kept throwing at us. She managed to assemble the most talented team of suppliers to give us an almost perfect day (even she couldn't change the entry restrictions to allow all of our guests to attend!).

One of the best measures of any person, and most certainly a wedding planner, is how they deal with a crisis. Jen is unflappable and proved to us over and over again that we could not have made a better choice, and that we were lucky to have her with us every step of the way.

 

Naomi & David

There isn’t enough words to describe how wonderful Jen is, both as a person and as a wedding planner. We are very lucky to have found her.

We became engaged in 2019 and found Jen later that year. I found Jen after seeing a wedding she’d created with a couple at our wedding venue. We knew we needed a planner to assist as we both have full on jobs and full on families! Jen was the perfect match for handling all of the wedding and more. She is incredibly kind, patient, calm, trustworthy, hardworking and extremely talented. The advice and guidance she gave us was invaluable and she kept us on track and on budget. I could go on and on about how wonderful she is!

Jen kept up with us through all the changes the covid-19 pandemic brought our way. She remained calm and reassuring throughout many difficult times. Jen always listened and took on board everything we envisioned for our day. Jen took all our worries and stress away. Her organisation skills were incredible and we didn’t have to worry about anything. She regularly met with us at the venue and would keep in regularly contact via phone or email. We never felt that we could not ask her for help or advice. She was always there for us, we will forever be grateful for that.

On the day of the wedding Jen quite simply designed the wedding of our dreams. She ensured the day ran so smoothly and everything we wanted and had planned occurred. Her attention to detail is insane and all the little touches she brought in made the day even more special to us. Jen and Sam work so well as a team and it is clear how much their love of weddings is portrayed into their work. I could not fault a thing and everything Jen put together was dreamy.

We couldn’t have planned or had the wedding without you Jen. We are incredibly grateful to you and Sam. We will never ever forget how much Jen has done for us. You are incredible and we wish you all the luck in the future with all your new couples. Everyone who comes into contact with Jen and hires her and her team are incredibly lucky. Thank you again Jen, you are incredible and we love you very much for providing us with the most magical and dream worthy wedding. 

- Laura & Keir

We honestly don’t know where to start on how thankful we are that Jen was a part of our wedding and helped plan from start to finish. Not only were we planning our wedding in a relatively short period of time we were also planning it from Australia and without Jen we don’t think the day would have been possible. Jen took the time to listen to us and went out of her way to create the perfect wedding for us. Her attention to detail is phenomenal and our day was absolutely beautiful from start to finish.

She literally thought of everything and wasn't afraid to tell us if something wouldn't work. We truly mean it when we say that you are the BEST at what you do! On the day Jen and Sam were amazing, they are so friendly and down to earth and took care of everything so that we could enjoy the day with our friends and family. We cannot recommend Jen’s services enough. She truly created a wedding well beyond our expectations. Thank you for not only being our "wedding planner but also a friend. You are amazing!"

- Selina & Chris

"Where to start! We hired Jen to plan our wedding weekend but, all I can say is, she did SO much more than that! I first found Jen via her website and was instantly drawn to her impeccable and professional aesthetic, which it turns out was matched in person. I knew the minute we met, that her lovely and calm nature would compliment me (quite the opposite) and that her attention to detail would match my very particular ways perfectly! From then on, Jen was the support network I never knew I needed - schedules, suggestions, ideas and advice were all things Jen gave me in abundance, whenever I needed it. She really was the last piece of the puzzle that brought everything together in those final months, and not to mention the fun we had at the venue, making sure the vision would come to life down to the very last detail. Then there was the weekend itself - five days actually, including set-up - of non-stop grind and team work. From table linen sagas to late-night final meetings (severely lacking in sleep) to the management of many, many different suppliers and logistics on the day itself, all of which was handled seamlessly without us noticing any of it. That’s testament to Jen and her team for their dedication to the cause and hard work, which knows no bounds. We can honestly say that we couldn’t have done any of it without you. We had the best time working with you all and I’ll look back on the “behind the scenes” stuff as fondly as the wedding itself, because we were lucky enough to do it in the great company of you guys. What a blast! Thank you for being the A team of dreams and for a magical experience! All our love, always."

- Mr & Mrs Davies

What can we say that already hasn’t been said by other lucky couples - every wedding needs a Jen! Simply the best decision we made was to get Jen on board and we were beyond happy with everything and how our special day went. After an attempt to plan our own wedding, the novelty soon wore off when we had to postpone for a year due to Covid and wedding planning fatigue set in. With Jen helping, we were able to take a step back and leave it all in her very capable hands and start to actually enjoy all the decision making again. She breathed fresh life into the planning, picked up and improved on decisions we had made. She knew which suppliers would complement our plans and completed our ‘dream team’. She never got bored of going over colour schemes, listening to minor dramas and going over all the small details! It didn’t feel like hard work planning a wedding with Jen in charge. She saw our vision even when we weren’t sure ourselves.

And the proof was on the day itself - we will forever have fond memories of Jen coordinating everyone on the morning of the wedding and checking in to make sure we were ok - exactly what was needed so we could just concentrate on getting ready and absorbing every second of our special day. Everything just gets done with Jen in charge! She handled a minor disaster with complete calm in her usual style and everyone was reassured and it was no longer a drama! Everything for the ceremony was organised and set up to perfection and it was the details she had proposed that stood out - we always knew we could trust her impeccable design and style but seeing it first hand was an absolute joy. Our dreams further came true for our fabulous drinks reception and all the details we had worked on with Jen looked amazing and had guests suitably impressed. Then the discrete nod from Jen to go and see the dining room set up before our guests were seated - we walked in and the emotion was incredible! There were tears of joy at the beauty and elegance of everything - we had a vague vision that we shared as best we could with Jen and she got it and went beyond that too! We have no idea how Jen pulled off coordinating such a set up - transforming the ceremony room into a beautiful, elegant, romantic, dream wedding reception room in such a short space of time with such attention to detail and we will forever be grateful and remember how gorgeous everything was and the amazement of our guests upon walking in. Everyone who attended our perfect wedding said it was the best wedding they had ever been to! The secret ingredient was Jen! Take one madly in love couple. Pick a beautiful venue for the nuptials… and add Jen for a sprinkling of pure romance and magic. Thank you for everything Jen!
