About JO event co

JO event co

Lead Planner + Coordinator

Your wedding should be a reflection of who you are, not just a series of traditions. At JO Event Co., we specialize in the intentional details—the ones that make your guests stop and say, ‘This is so them.’ I handle the ‘how’ so that you can focus on the ‘why,’ ensuring every second of your celebration feels as effortless as it is unforgettable.

At JO Event Co., I don’t just manage a timeline—I guard your story. Here is what sets our partnership apart: A True Thought Partner: I move beyond checklists to inhabit your vision, focusing on the intentional, personal details that make your wedding feel unmistakably you. Your Untethered Advocate: Whether at a local venue or a remote private estate, I am your expert on the ground, managing the "invisible" logistics and vetting every vendor so you don't have to. Guest-First Planning: I curate the entire experience—from the first arrival drink to the final exit—ensuring a seamless flow that keeps the energy high and your guests cared for.

In three words: Collaborative, Creative, Supportive

Description

My Full Planning service is built to be "location-agnostic." Whether you are dreaming of a luxury estate in the Florida Keys, a historic manor in the Carolinas, or a mountainside celebration across the country, I serve as your unrestricted advocate and travel-ready project manager. For a destination bride, my role is to eliminate the geographic barrier between you and your dream wedding, no matter where it takes place.

At JO Event Co., my Full Coordination package is designed for the couple who wants a luxury planning experience and a true "thought partner" by their side from the moment they say "Yes" to the final dance of the night. Instead of just checking boxes, I step in as your advocate, designer, and logistics expert. This package is about taking the heavy lifting off your plate so you can enjoy the fun parts of being engaged.

The Partial Planning package is the "sweet spot" for couples who have a head start but want a professional partner to step in and handle the heavy lifting of the mid-to-late stage planning. Think of this as collaborative planning. You’ve likely booked your venue and maybe a photographer, but now you’re feeling the weight of the "middle mile"—designing the floor plan, sourcing the remaining vendors, and making sure the budget doesn't spiral.

The Month-of Coordination package at JO Event Co. is designed for the couple who has enjoyed the DIY planning process but is ready to hand over the "logistics baton" so they can experience their wedding as guests of honor. While often called "Day-of Coordination," my approach begins much earlier because I believe professional execution requires a deep understanding of your vision and a thorough review of your hard work.

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Janae. From the moment we connected months before the wedding, I instantly felt a sense of calm and trust. After our first meeting, Michael and I walked away feeling so much more at ease about everything. Wedding planning can be stressful, but with the right support it becomes so much easier—and that’s exactly what Janae provided. Throughout the entire process, she was organized, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in bringing my vision to life. She sent ideas she knew I would love, checked in often, and always made sure we felt prepared for each step. I appreciated how well she understood my style and how patient and reassuring she was through the whole journey. When the wedding day finally arrived, she truly exceeded every expectation. She handled every detail flawlessly and made sure everything ran smoothly—especially important since I wasn’t feeling my best that morning! When I saw the venue for the first time, I was completely in awe. It looked exactly how I dreamed it would, and that was because of her care, talent, and attention to detail. Janae is not only amazing at what she does, but she has such a warm, calming presence that makes the entire experience better. We are so grateful for her, and I would recommend her wholeheartedly to any couple. She truly is a gift to work with.

    Screaming from the rooftops: Janae with JO Event Co. is THE wedding coordinator you want. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond to make sure every detail of our day was perfect. She was there every step of the way, offering thoughtful suggestions, expert guidance, and calm reassurance whenever I needed it (which was OFTEN). When I planned to DIY my florals, Janae stepped in, contacted one of her trusted vendors, and helped recreate my exact floral vision around my budget. By deciding to go with her connection, she saved me SO much time from no longer needing to make my own floral centerpieces and bouquets. Because of her, the week leading up to the wedding was 1000% less stressful and I had more to time relax and focus on other tasks. On the day of our wedding, Janae was truly an angel. She handled everything behind the scenes seamlessly so I could fully enjoy my day without stress or worry. I was able to be present in every moment instead of thinking about timelines, logistics, or last-minute details. My vision was executed absolutely perfectly and truly felt so magical. My parents (not privy to the wedding industry and what weddings are like today) originally didn’t fully understand the value of a wedding coordinator, but after seeing Janae in action, they had a complete change of heart and told me that the wedding would not have been nearly as successful without her!! She kept everything running smoothly, anticipated needs before they even came up, and made the entire day feel effortless. We are beyond grateful for Janae and CANNOT recommend her enough. If you want someone who truly cares, goes above and beyond, knows the wedding industry, and will make your wedding day flawless, Janae is your person.

    Janae went above and beyond for our wedding. We weren’t sure where to start and she jumped right in. The process was so fun with Janae’s help; she fielded the logistics and left the fun decisions to us. She did an incredible job sticking with our vision and amplifying it. She’s full of creative and fun ideas and has such an eye for design. You really get an all-in-one when you have Janae. The day was more than we could have dreamed it would be and we know that’s such a testament to all of Janae’s care that she poured into every single little detail. She is exactly who we needed and now we get to look back on our planning experience and say that it truly was such a joyful time in our lives. Janae took all of the stress off of our plates!

    Hiring Janae was the single best decision we made for our wedding. She turned the typically stressful process of wedding planning into a seamless and enjoyable experience. From the beginning, she thoughtfully guided us, bringing our vision to life with intentional, personalized details. Janae was our biggest advocate, expertly navigating vendor challenges and protecting our interests every step of the way. She truly went above and beyond, and by the end of it all she felt like family. When a downpour on our wedding day threatened to derail everything, Janae truly saved the day. She completely reset the entire event without missing a beat. Our guests noticed nothing but an amazing celebration, and we were free to simply be present and soak in every moment. We can’t overstate the difference Janae made in making our day so special. We will cherish the beautiful memories she helped create forever. Thank you endlessly, Janae!
