The Finer Things Event Planning 10/10!

Jennifer from “The Finer Things Event Planning” brought joy and efficiency to our wedding journey. With her upbeat personality, she made planning a delight. Her responsiveness, knowledge, and excellent esthetic taste ensured a stunning celebration. April, our wedding coordinator, was a calming force on the big day, contributing to the seamless flow of events. Together, they crafted a beautiful, stress-free experience. Grateful for their expertise in making our day truly special!

If it was possible to give Jennifer and her team 20 stars I would! She is absolutely amazing and went above and beyond to help make our day perfect! We planned our wedding from across the country, which was no easy endeavor. However, every time we would talk to or meet with Jennifer, my husband and I would thank our lucky stars that she was on our team! Working with her was the best decision we made throughout the entire process.

She is organized, efficient, and incredibly knowledgeable about the wedding industry. She made vendor recommendations, scheduled the entire weekend, and kept me sane throughout the whole process. We also partnered with her for decorations and she made our venue look absolutely stunning!

I found Jennifer by way of referral and would refer her to any and every one. If Jennifer is free for your wedding date, book her now....you will be so incredibly happy that you did!!

Jennifer Kontomerkos from The Finer Things Event Planning has helped us plan two large weddings for our two daughters in less than twelve months. Wow! To say that I couldn't have done it without her is an understatement.

I believe Jennifer's many years of experience have helped her perfect the event-planning process. Her attention to detail, her ability to gently keep everyone on task during the planning process, and her fool-proof timeline for the day of the event are all impressive. But the team of vendors chosen for the event can make of break a wedding day. This is where Jennifer excels. Over the years Jennifer has developed close working relationships with a wonderful team of vendors. Not only are the vendors delightful people, but they are professional to the core. The synergy created by this team results in a finely-choreographed wedding day. Everyone is committed to making sure that even the smallest of details is perfect. What a gift! All our family had to do was relax and enjoy.

I have referred Jennifer to friends in the past, and I will do so again. Thank you Jennifer -- you're the best!

I recommend Jennifer of the Finer Things Event Planning because she is a talented, caring professional who will take the time to find out exactly what you want and need. I have worked with many wedding planners since 2010 and Jennifer stands out by far. She is very "hands on" yet in a soft way that allows everything to flow very well, just as it should. She is a wedding "professional" in the truest sense of the word. Intelligent and attentive - Jennifer strives for excellence in all aspects of your wedding. She is also willing to do the smaller duties, and I have seen her do this often, whether is straightening an important decoration on a table, or sweeping up the venue after the ceremony. Some wedding planners would miss these things - and it shows just how much she cares and understands what is needed - as she accomplishes all that is necessary for an amazing wedding day for you and your loved ones! Give Jennifer a call - you will not be disappointed.
