Planning a wedding and creating a meaningful experience for you and your guests is no easy task. Choosing the perfect venue, selecting the right vendors, allocating your budget, and balancing family expectations can feel unmanageable, especially when you already have so much on the go.
Planning aside, you also want a wedding that feels effortless and true to who you are, but you’re buried under a sea of Pinterest boards, TikTok trends, and cookie-cutter checklists, unsure of how to bring it all together.
That’s where we step in! Our planning and design approach ensures your wedding day is seamlessly planned, resonates with who you are as a couple, and allows you and your guests to be fully present in your celebration.

Jess has been one of the best investments of our wedding day. With her coordinating most of the planning and completely handling the set-up and organization of the day, we were able to be present and enjoy our wedding with as little stress as possible. She brought so much experience into the planning process and was there to guide us through everything."
"Everything looked out of a magazine and we have gotten tons of positive feedback from our guests about how it all turned out!

She was there for every step in the planning process, and made sure we stayed on track with timelines and budget decisions. She made the whole wedding planning process so enjoyable. The most common advice I received after I got engaged was to “enjoy the day” - having Jess and her team there the day of the wedding really allowed me to sit back and enjoy while she made sure everything ran smoothly."
"Jess understood what we for our vision and made that vision a reality!

She took away the stress of planning our wedding and made the day such an enjoyable experience for both of us, since we didn't have to worry about the behind-the-scenes setup or coordination. We would 100% recommend Jess and Bonafide Events Studio as our wedding would not have gone off so wonderfully without her and her team!"
"Jess was the best investment we made for our wedding day. From start to finish, she helped us organize everything we needed!
