📢 1•0 Y•E•A•R•S 📢
Ten years is how long that JBS Weddings & Events has now, as of today, been in business!
4•23•14 was the day that I finished my last course and got my official Email that I completed the certification in becoming a Certified Wedding & Event Planner.
Here we are 10 years later, 4•23•24, and still absolutely loving the business and ALL that I've been able to accomplish in 10 years.
Whether it was Wedding Planner, Day of Coordinator, and/or Ordained Minister, I have helped with over 150+ Weddings in FIVE different states (AL, GA, FL, SC, & TN). SIX if you count the Timeline that I made for a Bride/Groom from and got married in NV.
Some of those weddings consisted only the 2 people getting married in a private ceremony, and some of those weddings were over 250 guests with all their family and friends.
I have helped with weddings anywhere from parks, to back yards, bridges, Walmart parking lot, livingrooms, to soooo many different wedding venues. Barns, farms, industrial, in front of waterfalls, train depots, museums, theaters, art galleries, hotels, by the lake, or ocean front, community centers, and so so many more.
No matter the wedding size, guest count, or budget, I have always strived to give each couple my all and make sure they know that at the end of the day, they are just as married as the next.
I have a true passion for all things weddings, and I simply love love!
Growing up, I definitely didn't think I would be a Wedding Planner. In my head, I wanted to, but I never spoke about it. I didn't know if that was a thing. I am thankful that I finally took the steps to make a secret passion of mine a reality.
I have worked with some amazing couples, vendors, friends, and family members over the years, and I cannot wait to see who all I will work with in the years to come. I always love going to new venues and working with new people, but of course, I do love seeing some familiar faces!
Of course, there have been some troubling times, and the not so nice Bride, mother, jealous sister, or wedding guest, but the good 100% outweigh those few, and it is all apart of the job.
I have been given sooo many compliments, praises, and kind words over the years, and to me, that's better than anything. It always reminds me that I'm exactly where I need to be.
I want to thank EVERY couple and person that has supported me since day 1. I couldn't have done this without each of you, your love, your trust, and your support.
I have so many goals and aspirations on what I want to accomplish in the next 10 years, and I know that I can do it. The biggest goal that I have is to do a wedding in all 50 states!
These pictures posted are just a few of the MANY weddings that I have had the honor to help with.
Thank you again to everyone! Because of you, I am truly booked, busy, and blessed!!
With so much love,
