Jesse Reing has over ten years of experience in the hospitality and event industry. Born, raised, and bat-mitzvahed in Westchester County. From a young age, Jesse knew her purpose in life was to help people realize their vision for their most important occasions. Her creativity, precision, and passion for bespoke service set her apart from her industry peers. After graduating from Binghamton University, Jesse actualized her purpose by earning an MBA in Hotel Management from University Center Cesar Ritz, an internationally renowned hotel school in Switzerland. Jesse returned to NYC and worked in catering and events for Manhattan luxury hotels; Jesse began planting the seeds for what would soon become ‘Events by Jesse.’ By attending the Institute of Culinary Education and obtaining a diploma in Pastry and Baking Arts and Culinary Management, Jesse gained a heightened level of expertise that would allow her to relate to all elements of event planning. Other highlights of Jesse’s career include managing Michelin Star restaurants, leading the catering team for the President of FIT, and acting as the catering director for NYC’s largest independently owned cafe brand, FIKA. Given her unique experience in client services and her previous work as a vendor, she seamlessly navigates her clients’ wants and needs through the event planning trifecta — catering, entertainment, and design/decor.

Part 3✨🪩🍾 Which one is your favorite? Personally loving 1,2, and 5!

Save these ideas for your own special day or share with a friend who’s on the hunt for fresh wedding inspiration!

A little bit about us and why we love sharing these ideas:

✨As wedding planners planning modern weddings that include both traditional and nontraditional elements, we love to support our couples’ wedding choices that reflect who they are, their culture, their families, and their interests. Part of why we love doing this series of ideas from the Internet is it’s just a good reminder that there’s no one way to do a wedding, and your personal choices that you decide could help inspire another couple to do the same thing.

Want your couple portraits in one borough and your wedding ceremony in another? As your wedding planning BFF, we can make that happen!

Part of our approach is getting to know your wedding day must-have expectations, which we build into the timeline to ensure you can do everything you want. Once we finalize the timeline together, you’ll feel confident that all your wishes can be accommodated.

On the big day, while you’re getting your portraits taken, we’re at the venue overseeing setup. And remember, we’re always available for you to call or text!

A New Yorker’s favorite photo accessory—a yellow taxi 🚕 🤍✨

When Rachel & Guy wanted DUMBO portraits, vintage taxi moments crossing the Brooklyn Bridge, family photos, AND venue shots before their 5:40 ceremony? Our decade of NYC planning experience made it reality. We create timelines that don’t make you choose between your must-have moments. The Brooklyn traffic, subway delays, venue restrictions? We’ve tackled it all. Your ceremony starts on time AND you get the shots you’re dying for. No compromises needed.

“We hired Jesse halfway through our wedding planning, and we could not be happier that we did. Jesse swooped right in and made our lives so much easier. We instantly trusted her and knew she had everything under control. She was always an email, call, or text away to help us deal with anything and everything. She never said no to us, and made all of our crazy requests happen!! Day-of, we knew everything was under control with Jesse there. She knew exactly what we wanted and did everything exactly as we discussed. Jesse made sure we didn’t need to make any decisions day of, she took care of everything and left us to completely enjoy our day. We truly could not have had our perfect wedding day without her and are so grateful for her commitment to making our dreams come true.“

Why have one wedding cake when you can have three? There’s a subtle art to creating a dessert experience that feels both abundant and curated where multiple options don’t overwhelm but instead invite guests into a choose-your-own-dessert adventure.

Crystal glassware holding individual parfaits, delicate tartlets on vintage silver trays, and assorted petit fours...these are the details that transform a reception into an experience.

What statement do you want your dessert table to make? ✨

Today feels like the perfect moment to reflect on something deeply important to me: uplifting women in the wedding industry.

This journey began years ago when I discovered event planning while organizing cast parties for theater groups in university. Even though it wasn’t considered a lucrative career back in 2005, I knew I had found my calling. My path took me to Switzerland for my MBA in hotel and tourism management, where I gained invaluable cultural perspective from students and teachers representing over 50 countries.

After returning to New York, I built a career in luxury hospitality before launching Events By Jesse. Through every experience the inspiring and the challenging , I gathered lessons that shaped my approach to business and service excellence.

What makes me most proud isn’t just creating magical days for our brides, but supporting the incredible community of female vendors we collaborate with daily. In this industry, I firmly believe we are NOT competitors – we are collaborators. There’s room for all of us to succeed and create something beautiful together. We shine brightest when we stay in our own lane while enthusiastically supporting other women’s shine! When one of us succeeds, we all succeed.

To all the amazing women in the wedding industry: planners, photographers, florists, bakers, designers, thank you for bringing your talents, vision, and support to this community. We rise by lifting others, today and every day!

If this is the aesthetic you are looking for, then you want an “Industrial Romantic Wedding“🤍🌿🕯️A combination of raw architectural elements (exposed brick, worn wooden floors, steel beams) with soft, romantic touches (lush greenery, delicate blooms, vintage furnishings).

Make it yours by playing with colors, textures, and personal touches!

The real value of a wedding planner? Being your advocate every step of the way. When you hire us, yes—we reduce your stress, but that’s just the beginning. We take the time to truly understand you as a couple (how you met, why you kept dating, what makes your relationship unique) so we can bring your vision to life, even when it seems far-fetched.

What makes a wedding truly memorable isn’t just how it looks (though this Greenpoint Loft setup was STUNNING) - it’s how it feels.

E&B trusted us to create a day that balanced all of their expectations for their beautiful summer rooftop ceremony with our attention to detail, calm guidance through potential challenges, and expertise in bringing their vision to life. This allowed them to be fully present with each other and their guests, exactly as they had imagined.

That’s the real luxury we provide: peace of mind that every detail is handled with care.
