Bonafide Events Studio

Where do I even begin. Jessica was amazing and probably the most essential thing I needed throughout the process of planning our wedding.Her spreadsheet was extremely detailed and helped me plan my wedding without forgetting a single thing.When it came time to our big day, Jess was such a big help. Not only did she help us through the rehearsal, but she also told me to go home and get some rest and that she would finish up my little jobs I had leftover.The day of the wedding was so incredibly perfect and I have to give major credit to her. She helped set up tables, chairs, place settings, communicated with the florists, photographers/videographers as well as the caterer and venue owners to ensure everything went as smoothly as possible. If anything went wrong on my wedding day, I still don’t know about it (I don’t think anything did, Jess had everything under control).Thank you so much for making my big day as less stressful as possible, and for making all of my dreams come together. I couldn’t have done it without you!

Jess was simply wonderful! We are so grateful for the support and expertise she provided to us along every step of the way. Her organization and preparation were exceptional - nothing was missed. And her design for our service and reception were spectacular. We are so happy and would recommend Jess and Bonafide Events to everyone!

We contacted Jess to help plan our wedding and have absolutely zero regrets. She made our vision come to life and was extremely easy to work with. She found us the perfect venue which checked every single box, and ensured that all of our wish-list items were taken care of. She provided an easy to understand workbook tracker to keep dates, budget, vendor payments, and general information all together so things did not get lost. She was there every step of the way, taking the nerves off our shoulders and helped make the wedding planning process more enjoyable rather than stressful.We can’t thank Jess enough for all the hard work she did to help make this day the best it could be and highly recommend her! I do not believe we could have done this without her.Thank you Jess!!!

Jessica!!! You did not have an easy task on your hands with our diy tent wedding, but the day went on without a hitch (at least from my perspective) and so much of that is thanks to you and Amber. You set up our tables and the bar and transitioned everything so seamlessly. You were such a big help leading up to the wedding, too! Every time I spoke to my vendors they would mention “how amazing my wedding planner is” thank you thank you for making it the best wedding ever. We couldn’t have done it without you!!

I honestly don’t even know how to express in words how amazing Jess is - our day would not have been possible without her.With the style of venue for our wedding, we had to outsource all of our vendors. I also had many DIY dreams for our decor… requiring a lot of organization. Jess made sure we were set up for success with her fantastic planning tools, check ins and calm approach (I can be quite the tornado, so this was essential). She also has a great sense of humour and we managed to maintain smiles (and have many laughs) throughout the whole planning process.Now for the day of the wedding! With all the DIY decor, Jess really did work magic behind the scenes to make sure everything was set up how I envisioned. We had rain up until an hour before our outdoor wedding… yes…insert minor panic attack. But I had no real reason to stress as when I saw the ceremony space for the first time, it was absolutely perfect because Jess and her team ensured nothing less. Including our ‘circle’ format for the ceremony which she promised would make happen!!It was really amazing to have someone be your right hand for the day so all we had to do was enjoy our time with our family and friends. Hiring Jess will always be one of the best decisions we made. A true miracle worker and an artist at what she does…I could literally go on and on. I cannot say enough good things about everything Jess did to make our day truly magical.

We hired Jess for our month of planner and cannot recommend her enough. From the moment we met, she exuded friendliness and warmth, instantly putting us at ease. Throughout the planning process, she proved to be an invaluable asset, always ready to lend a helping hand and offer guidance. On the day of, Jess set up all the design exactly to our vision, she ensured that everything ran smoothly and kept the schedule moving throughout the night. If you're searching for a wedding planner who is not only professional but also genuinely friendly, helpful, and attentive, look no further. Jess exceeded all expectations!
