"I have really realized what it takes to be a mom"

There was not a dry eye in sight. A beautiful moment of love and gratitude between a mother & daughter will always have a special place in my heart.

To my couples (past and present), family, friends, and followers 🤍 I’m beyond thankful for each one of you! Thank you to my current couples for allowing me the privilege of getting to be a part of your journey together. Thank you to my past couples and vendor friends for all the referrals (it has truly been a blessing! You all are the absolute best!) Thank you to those that are simply silently supporting and following along in my journey! Your support, trust, and belief in JME has been such a blessing this year and I can’t wait to see what 2024 has in store! 🫶

Wishing you full hearts (and bellies) this Thanksgiving 🥰

✨ Emily + Harman | 11.4.2022 ✨

One year ago today these two said “I Do” on a day where the weather threw a true Texas sized storm our way! ⛈️

Their outdoor ceremony made a shift inside and in the hours leading up to the ceremony their vendors, family, & guests dealt with flooded roads, insane winds, and power issues, but these two were 😎 calm, cool, and collected!

When I notified Emily that we were going to have to delay the ceremony, her bridal crew simply turned up the speaker in the suite and handed her a karaoke mic to make the best of it! 🎤

During the ceremony the skies parted and the most amazing sunset came out, just in time for them to exit the ceremony where they were greeted with the most hype wedding party to 🎉 celebrate with them!

They exchanged private vows during an intimate moment after the ceremony and .co captured some of my favorite couples portraits to date!

Their reception was truly a celebration of these two where the dance floor was full of energy and their favorite people. Oh…and there’s no way we could forget Emily dress change and her karaoke skills to “Don’t Stop Believing” at end the night! 🎶

Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes? 👉 Swipe to see 👀 what all goes down!

Hey Y’all! 💕 It’s me, Jenna, the face behind JME! Thought it was about time to introduce myself 👋

✨A few fun facts about me✨
💍 My husband and I eloped in 2020 (after cancelling and rescheduling our wedding thanks to you know what)
📍 Born and raised in a small town in Georgia (hence the “yall”) then moved to the big city of Dallas with my husband
🐶 We have two *spoiled* rescue dogs, Charlie & Bailey
☕️ I thrive on coffee (and wine)
🍹 In my downtime you can catch me sippin on a margarita, listening to live music somewhere or talking my hubby into watching the latest reality TV show
🌊 My dream home is right on the beach

JME was started out of a passion for celebrating and supporting others and a love for logistics, details, and design! I had the privilege of working in the wedding industry for a few years and grew to love serving couples on one of the most special days of their lives!

Let’s grab a drink and talk about how I can support you on one of the best days of your lives! Can’t wait to meet you! 🥰

———

Quick Thank you 💕 Throughout this new journey I’ve felt so incredibly uplifted and supported by family, friends, past clients, and some pretty amazing friendors! I wasn’t sure what this journey would look like, but your support boosted my confidence and I’m thrilled to be exactly where I am. Thank you to those that have sent words of encouragement, left me a review, shared my page and showed me support, it has meant the world to me! 🫶

“Oh! So you JUST need someone to show up on wedding day? Okay, so that means before wedding day you and your fiancé are going to….

◽️Re-read all of your vendor contracts & review your invoices to cross check all of your details (Like…does your DJ contract state that they are including an additional set up for your outdoor ceremony?)

◽️Know what equipment is needed for your vendors (Psst…does your Photo Booth need power and Wi-Fi? Are they set up in a location where they can access those things? Do your musicians require armless chairs?)

◽️Confirm arrival times and service end times with each of your vendors (…and make sure all of those times line up correctly, don’t need to be extended, or shifted)

◽️Communicate the correct counts to the appropriate vendors (FYI: these counts aren’t a one number deal…do you have kids? Did you include yourselves? What about the number of vendors you’ll have, were they included?)

◽️Know the best layout for your vendor set ups, head count, and venue (Also, you guessed it…your layout also needs to be passed along to specific vendors)

◽️Create your ceremony order and communicate those details to the necessary vendors

◽️Create your pre-ceremony and post-ceremony order of events timeline for the best flow based on your vendors service times

◽️Communicate locations and parking details to each of your vendors

◽️Confirm final quantities with all of your quantity based vendors

◽️Ensure all cake flavors, meal selections, place setting selections, photo lists, song lists, etc are communicated and invoiced for

◽️Know what needs to be on your “don’t forget” list

If this pre-wedding day list feels crazy overwhelming OR if you had NO idea that majority of these things even needed to be done, then I highly recommend at LEAST getting a month of coordinator (and if you’re more than 3 months out, I would personally recommend a partial planner!)

Have you ever packed for a trip, gotten on the plane and thought “I feel like I forgot something?” Your wedding day is noooo different! Below is a list of items that I remind my couples about because they’ve been forgotten or needed way too many times to count!

👉 Decorative hangers - photographers & videographers WILL capture your dress/suit and unless you’re lucky and have an insanely creative photo team, they’ll just snap photos of that ugly plastic hanger that the dress shop or alterations store gave you

👉 Pre-ceremony food & drinks - both your wedding party and YOU need something to hold you over on wedding morning. Think sandwiches, snacks, and WATER!

👉 Phone chargers & bluetooth speaker - everyone is usually texting, calling, and snapping photos on wedding day so be sure to have a way to charge them AND have a speaker to blast your favorite hype songs while you’re getting ready

👉 Cake cutting set - SOMETIMES your caterer or venue might have one, but 9 times out of 10 you’ll be stuck cutting your cake with a butter knife if you don’t bring one!

👉 Cake box for your top tier - not everyone saves their top tier, but if you do, you’ll need something to take it home in, otherwise it is riding shotgun in the floorboard! Ask your baker if they can provide a box for you!

👉 Touch up kit - after your hair & makeup team has worked their magic, you still have a full day ahead of you plus there might be tears, sweat, or even Mother Nature, so pack a small bag of powder, lipstick, eyelash glue, etc.

👉 Here are a few quick extras to remember: invitation suite for detail photos, change of shoes (and socks) and pens for your guestbook

✨What other items should I add to this list??✨

10/09/2023

✨MAIN CHARACTER ENERGY✨Just imagine the planning being over, the I Dos are done, and it’s time to grab that cocktail and get on the dance floor! You’ll officially be in celebration mode and it will be your moment to have the T I M E O F Y O U R L I F E with your spouse!

10/09/2023

The wedding celebration is over and you + your spouse just drove off…now what happens?? Well….the answer to that questions fully depends on how well you prepared!

Did you confirm your vendors break down details? Are your vendors handling everything or do mom and dad need to roll up their sleeves? How is your bouquet and personal items getting home? Who’s taking home the top tier of your cake? Do you have to load up all the florals and take out all the trash? Who is packing up your signage, decor, and anything else your bought? What is your venues end of night clean up policies? And the biggest question of them all…how long do you have to do it all??

Pssst…a planner not only confirms all of those details, BUT is there to ensure the logistics are taking care of AND everything goes where it needs to so that you can head off on your honeymoon without a care in the world!

05/09/2023

Finding your vendor dream team is such a massive undertaking! Do they match your vibe & personality? Are they in your budget? There’s so many ways to find the perfect match:

📱 Look at tagged vendors on your venues social media feed — these should be vendors that are aware of the ins and outs on policies, photo locations, etc.

📖 Check out local wedding magazines — look at both online & print magazines (like or ) to get a wide array of great vendors an inside scoop on some of their published work

🗣️ Ask your booked vendors for recommendations — the best way to build a dream team is to book vendors that have experience working with each other! Ask your photographer for a videographer recommendation or ask your florist for a floral preservation recommendation.

#️⃣ Look at local hashtags — use social media to your advantage by searching different vendor hashtags like or

🗣️ Ask trusted family & friends for recommendations — if your best friend got married last year ask what vendors they loved, if your aunt works in the event industry ask for her favorite recommendations! Asking family and friends for recommendations gives you a peace of mind since they would only refer you to the best of the best!

‼️ There are two things I DO NOT recommend doing…
➡️ Facebook Groups - you get bombarded by people selling themselves and end up sifting through 200 comments (Tip: if you do choose to post in Facebook groups, be specific about what you want. For example: Don’t make one post requesting 5 different types of vendors, don’t say “affordable”…give a specific number and any other details like inspo, location, etc.)

➡️ The Knot/Wedding Wire - these avenues only show a small selection of vendors, since a lot of vendors choose not to advertise there

After all the planning is done and your wedding day has arrived, put your stress aside and soak in the feelings of the people around you! The excitement, the joy, and the happiness that your friends and family feel for the two of you is contagious 🤍

There are SO many details & to dos in wedding planning, it’s ok to pass things off to those that want to help you have the best day! ⬇️

👉 Researching - Ask for help in finding the perfect vendor, shoes you’ve been envisioning, or a sign you need to purchase! They could have vendor recommendations for you or can help search the ends of the internet for the perfect pair item to match your vision.

👉 Crafting & Assembling - If you are planning on DIYing some of your wedding details, this is the perfect time to invite others to join in & help! Have your artistic sister create your invitations, bridesmaids stuff & stamp the envelopes, or have mom & dad assemble favors or welcome bags. The more hands, the better!

👉 Getting Ready Food & Drink - Everyone has that person that loves hosting or cooking! Ask if they would help in providing the set up snacks, food, & drinks in the getting ready spaces!

👉Personal Attendant - Your wedding party & parents are involved in photos, ceremony, hair/makeup, etc. so they can’t always help with everything, so if you’ve got a close coworker or cousin that wants to be involved, have them be a bridal/groom attendant on wedding day! They can help steam, grab extra lipstick, switch out your shoes, grab water, & any other personal details that you might need throughout the day

👉Hotel Check In - Have someone pre-check you into your wedding night hotel and drop off your overnight bags then bring you the key so you don’t have to deal with the front desk after your wedding

👉 Tidy Up the Suites - Having someone dedicated to packing up your personal items & making sure your getting ready space are tidy before ceremony. This relieve the stress of having to do so during reception & at the end of the night

👉 Pick Ups & Errands - Delegate someone you trust to help pick up wedding day items that aren’t being delivered by a vendor such as desserts & linens or have them help deliver welcome bags to free up some of your time

👉 Family Wrangling - Have someone that knows your family & isn’t afraid to be in charge to handle wrangling everyone that should be on deck for the next set of family photos (Uncle John is never where he needs to be!)

To any engaged couples in the midst of wedding planning and feeling a little overwhelmed 🫶

Remember the purpose. Marriage first, wedding second. The people that love you the most are coming together to witness the two of you start your journeys together. They are there to celebrate your love. They’ll remember the laughs, the tears, and the time spent with others. Everything else will become a blur. Know that whatever is causing you stress now will be resolved or won’t matter and your wedding will be exactly what it’s meant to be, a day where you marry your favorite person on earth 🤍
