“Booking Jordan for a full-service wedding was a non-negotiable for us and the best decision we made”

We booked with Jordan for a full service wedding, and we are so grateful for all her expertise. My husband and I had a destination wedding in Alaska and had never actually been to the state until we landed three days before the wedding! We heavily relied on Jordan and her recommendation of vendors + venue, and we could not have asked for a smoother wedding week.

Jordan did such a fantastic job executing the design and making the whole day feel like a dream. Since I was out of state, we had regular zoom planning calls and plenty of email communication in between. She really listened to what was important to us for our wedding day and tailored her suggestions around what would have the biggest impact for the day. My husband and I had such an stress-free day where we truly got to be present the whole time while Jordan handled the coordination of everything.

Booking Jordan for a full-service wedding was a non-negotiable for us and the best first decision we made with planning!
