Weddings From The Heart

Jean did a fabulous job making our wedding go smoothly and her manner was calming and caring, while working with us. She was flexible, helpful, and a great listener, so that ideas came together. Jean coordinated all the important details and worked well with the other vendors, too. My daughter, the bride wanted Jean's help, so that the family would be free from the set-up and take down activities on the busy wedding day to have more time to enjoy the event. It worked! Thanks, Jean.

Awesome coordinator on day of wedding!

My daughter's wedding went off without a hitch and I have to say that Jean had a HUGE hand in that. Our arrangements had a big bump along the way (our venue got canceled just 3 months before the day) and Jean got right to work arranging appointments and gathering information on new venues. We booked a new place in just 3 days. Jean may be quiet but don't let that fool you. She was very much in charge which allowed me the pleasure of just enjoying our family's big day. We worked side by side in the wedding details by my choice but I am sure she would plan a beautiful event even if you left it completely in her hands. Jean is very detail oriented and organized. I would recommend Jean to anyone!

I live in Maryland, but got married in my home town in Xenia, Ohio. I found Jean on the internet. After our initial phone conversation, I knew immediately I had found the person who I could trust to be my eyes and ears, since most of the planning and preparation activities would be executed in a different state. Since Jean lived in Ohio, she stood in for me by driving to Xenia to meet with my pastor to plan out the decor for our church ceremony. She also met with the staff at our reception site to plan the details of our reception (decor, seating, menu selections, placement of the DJ and photographers, etc.). She recommended and secured our DJ and photographer. All this was going on while I was in Maryland, but I never felt like I was left to wonder how things were going. Jean and I talked all the time. She always made herself available to me, even when she traveled on her vacation she took my calls assuring me all was in order. Instead of sending my wedding and reception gowns to my family, I sent them to Jean’s house. I had the upmost trust for her and literally felt like I could place my wedding in her very capable and competent hands. After months of preparation, a wind storm occurred the day my husband and I flew to Ohio for our wedding. The electricity went out at the church and the reception site was no different. In the very throws of this unbelievable act of nature, Jean sprang into action and immediately helped to establish Plan B; an outdoor wedding and reception. Literally, I was numb and crazed at the thought of not getting married in my grandmother’s church; the one I grew up in. Under fire, Jean stayed poised and focused. Performing the required due diligence, to take an indoor wedding outside in less than 48 hours. Somehow, Plan B was developed and ready to go if the electricity did not come back on. The day of our rehearsal, the electricity came on and the rest is history. My husband and I are forever grateful to Jean for her many hours of laboring in love to make sure our day was perfect. I truly believe Jean was sent as a gift from God. She will forever be in our hearts. We are most grateful to have had her as our wedding planner.

My wedding was not only out of state but also in a city I had never been to. It would have been impossible for me to have pulled together what I wanted without Jean. I actually did not have a care in the world on my wedding day because I knew that Jean had taken care of everything. She found my venue, planned and executed everything.
I had some odd requests, one being I wanted an intimate wedding set in a barn. Jean found the most incredible horse barn with an amazing view. She sent pictures of everything since I was in another state during the planning. She communicated with me so well and made sure that we had everything I wanted.
Even better, Jean made my small budget go a long way.

Jean was wonderful. I was trying to plan my wedding from out of town, and she really helped make it all come together.

Jean was great! I pushed my wedding back a year....and she was able to work with all then vendors on my behalf. She listened, and guided me through my big day....recommended the florist (fantastic above my expectations for the price) and make up artist (also fantastic...I did not want to wash my face)....I was on a tight budget yet it turned out wonderful....

Has trouble following simple as well as complex directions. Is not time conscious. Unable to take charge and run a rehearsal. CAN NOT RECOMMEND!

Weddings from the Heart was the best value for the dollar of all our vendors. Jean came in especially handy on our wedding day when the hotel we had chosen decided to be less than friendly for us. She helped us put together the type of wedding we wanted, never telling us we had to do things a certain way, while providing advice about etiquette and tradition. She even helped us find a last minute officiant (when ours cancelled a month before the wedding) that was a perfect fit to our chosen ceremony. We had a really fun time with her and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding coordinator!!

Our wedding planner, Jean, from Weddings from the Heart was terrific! She is a very kind and warm person. She listen to what I wanted for my wedding and gave a 110 percent in helping me have my dream wedding. She was very creative and made great recommendations in regards to vendors. We had just about everything, but someone to marry us and as we all know the most important part of the wedding is having someone to marry you otherwise well kind of defeats the point. Jean recommended Terry and he was terrific. She made sure all the vendors were paid so I did not have to worry about that. I am so happy that I met Jean and she was not just my planner, but it felt like more of a friend. I would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding and want someone creative, responsible, and very personable.

She did a good job,their was mistakes made but at the end of the day we all had a good time. she has to take a little more control the day of.

Jean from Weddings From the Heart was fantastic! She took so much stress off of my shoulders with the planning and she had a ton of helpful information regarding vendors to use for catering, flowers, and photography. Thanks to her our wedding day went off without a hitch. I would highly recommend her to anyone! She's great!

Jean did everything she said she would and more. She made a very stress free day for the whole family. We were very relaxed and enjoyed ourselves.
