Been meaning to write a post since our son's bar mitzvah the end of Feb. 2020. Not a wedding, but Jessica planned such a great event for us. She was so helpful every step of the way and really went above and beyond. She has such great relationships with other companies were were part of the day. She made vendor recommendations, was helpful in pulling all the pieces together and also helpful during the planning process, pointing out insightful things to think about and considerations I never would have thought of. And grateful she managed a lot of the conversations with getting agreements and details figured out. I knew that everything was under control. But the above and beyond and Jessica's help with the little things, that was delightfully unexpected and so appreciated. It was truly a special day for us and one that we will cherish and remember. Thank you.

As a former event services manager for Devil's Thumb Ranch, I tried to shy away from submitting reviews to not offend anyone. Well, I recently moved and I wanted to take a moment and share how incredible it has been working with Jessica. When her name came up as my client's planner, I knew I could breathe. She has incredible attention to detail and genuinely cares for each of her clients. I would 100000% percent recommend Jessica for any event. She was really one of the VERY few wedding planners that actually knew how important the technical and logistical aspects of the wedding is for vendors.

PS - Out of all of the wedding planners I've worked with in Colorado, she is the only one I feel confident recommendinh and writing a review for.

I cannot begin to express my extreme gratitude for the thorough professionalism and care provided by Jessica at JA Special Events although, I owe it to her to try. With all the busyness of our June 2020 wedding behind me I can now reflect back on the day and clearly see that hiring Jessica Adler as our wedding planner was the best decision we made in regards to our wedding. We greatly benefited from how long Jessica has been in the wedding business here in Colorado. In our search for vendors she quickly provided options in line with our preferences. The more vendors we spoke to the more we became aware of the deep respect that vendors held for our planner across this state. It made us thankful to be on her team as it put our spinning minds at ease and also blessed us with discounts. We also selected a few vendors outside of her network that she quickly got to know and partnered with effectively. Her extensive network saved the day when we ended up modifying our wedding due to Covid and some of our vendors had to back out of their contracts. She was able to call upon old friends 3 days before the wedding that stepped in a saved the day providing amazing service. Jessica's trusted experience and network alone are reasons to immediately partner with her but in addition to that she conducts business with a professional sense of timeliness, kindness, grace, empathy and care. She consistently made us feel like we were a priority even though I'm sure she was simultaneously serving many other happy couples at the time. Throughout each conversation, Jessica invested her care into our dreams as though she was family. We always felt like she was a safe confidant to be honest with and we always trusted that she cared about our day going smoothly just as much as we did…which she proved through and through in the face of pandemic changes. One small example of this was that she purchased a beautiful allergy friendly cutting cake for us when it looked like our wedding would be called off due to the pandemic. That is just her - going above and beyond business, straight into a caring relationship with the couples she serves. Thankfully we had the honor of cutting this cake at our modified wedding! Lastly I want to call out her thorough attention to detail. After all that she reworked with us due to the pandemic from vendor contracts to day of details, she deserves a certificate of proficiency in emergency rescheduling. She negotiated terms of contracts and got us money refunded that we didn't think we would ever see again after our own personal discussions with the same vendors. It sure helps us that she was aware of contract terms and how to effectively negotiate in unprecedented times. I honestly believe that if it weren't for her assistance we would have lost money from our contract, and not have had the grit to replan our wedding multiple times. Because of her partnership we were able to carry forth with a smaller guest list and have a day that was still a dream! It was her support contacting vendors, reading government news updates, notifying us of our next steps, and caring deeply for our hearts that kept us going all the way down the aisle in the midst of a pandemic.
