Jenna Laine deserves way more than 5 stars!!! I cannot recommend her highly enough and there are…read moreonly positive things to say about her and event planning skills. She is responsive, professional, understanding, resourceful, knowledgeable, organized, and somehow extremely calming despite how hectic wedding planning can be! I don't know how she does it all and doesn't show any stress! My wedding was in Fairhope but I was in Tuscaloosa finishing up grad school, recently diagnosed with a chronic illness, which meant planning was much more hands off than I had originally hoped. However, Jenna learned enough about what my husband and I cared about and envisioned for our wedding weekend and she went above and beyond anything we could have come up with. She was an incredible listener and always efficient. Jenna is a true PRO / event planning GENIUS and she will make your wedding dreams come to life within your budget and timeframe!!!! She has an amazing eye to the point that the entire weekend felt cohesive, almost like a romantic story. Jenna knows so many vendors in the area and set us up with incredible photographers, videographers, make up/hair teams, florists, cake designers, and band that made our weekend the most memorable experience of our lives. The Welcome Party, Bridesmaid Brunch, Rehearsal Dinner, Wedding, and Reception all felt like such special chapters we will never forget! My bridesmaid brunch was even held in her event space, overlooking downtown Fairhope with a beautiful balcony. We got so many compliments about her, the other professionals she recommended, and the set up/organization of the beautiful wedding. While our wedding was in Fairhope, I would hire her for a wedding anywhere because I know how resourceful, experienced, and adaptive she is and it is so worth having someone dependable like her during this process! The weekend was relaxed and seamless. If there were issues, I would not have even known, because she stays on top of things, handles issues, and ensures everyone is having the best time they can have. Again, I can't emphasize enough how calming her presence is and how amazing her problem solving skills are. Did I even mention this was during COVID and she was pregnant?? We are so incredibly grateful for her and wish her all the success she so deserves- it will be fun to continue watching her events via social media @jennalaineweddings on insta and we can't wait to see what her future holds!! Thank you SO much, Jenna!!!

I have heard from all of my family members who worked with her on the day-of and they all gave her rave reviews! She is a hard worker, incredibly knowledgeable and very professional in the way she handles things. I was so lucky to have her as my day-of coordinator and am so thankful for everything she did to make my day perfect!

We were close enough to make it here to have a cruise. I was excited that the cruise provided us…read morethe closest view of the SS United States. Being able to get this close before it became the world's largest artificial reef was the highlight of the cruise. Friendly staff and a full bar with snacks only enhanced our trip. Kinda difficult to navigate getting back to the highway, but don't let that deter you from enjoying an hour on the river

I gave two stars because the crew working the boat were absolutely awesome, friendly and very…read moreattentive. I didn't expect much from the food as it comes from off site, while being dry and overcooked, it was presented very well. I paid extra for us to be upstairs. It was very disappointing. The boat is completely enclosed making it feel very confined. There was a band that played so loudly conversation, even across the table became labored. The cruise in Mobile Bay was fascinating seeing all the container ships. I would have much preferred commentary on what we were seeing during dinner and music later, maybe after dinner. When the band took a break and the prerecorded music was playing, it was much more enjoyable. We went outside a few times just to get away from the blaring drummer and finally ended up sitting downstairs until the cruise was over as it was more quiet. Sadly we ended up playing with our phones a good part of the time as conversation was difficult and it was just very boring. But again, the crew did a yeoman's job of making everyone feel welcome.
