A flawless wedding

stress-free and within reach

Planning your wedding is supposed to be joyful, yet so many couples quickly find themselves overwhelmed by the endless decisions, family opinions, and the pressure to make it all come together. Maybe you’ve already started planning and realized it’s far more time-consuming than you expected—or perhaps you knew from the beginning that your busy schedule wouldn’t allow you to manage it all. Either way, you deserve support. My couples often come to me feeling stuck: unsure how to spend their budget wisely, torn between too many ideas, or struggling to find a venue that truly fits their vision. On top of that, they want to prioritize inclusive and diverse vendors but don’t always know where to begin. That’s where I come in—to take the stress off your shoulders, guide you through every decision with clarity, and design a classic, timeless wedding that feels beautifully and authentically yours.

you want a wedding that

feels like you

Your wedding is more than just a day on the calendar or a checklist of traditions—it’s the story of who you are as a couple. Every choice, from the venue to the flowers to the flow of the evening, should reflect your style and speak volumes about your love. You deserve a celebration that feels like you—timeless, intentional, and beautifully personal. My role is to help you cut through the noise, honor what matters most, and design a wedding that you’ll not only remember in photos, but truly experience and cherish in the moment.

If you’re looking to have someone truly take all the weight off your shoulders during your wedding planning process, this is your sign to reach out to her!

It’s just impossible to do what she does on your own. I’m not one to write many reviews but Janna Simone Wedding Event planning deserves recognition and would recommend her to anyone over and over again!

When we added Janna to our planning team full time it was the biggest relief off of our shoulders. She was so In tuned with all of our needs at any given moment. 

Relax, laugh, and celebrate—while every detail and family curveball is taken care of.

hey, i'm janna.

I create a stress-free wedding experience, 100% dedicated to you.

I discovered my passion for weddings while planning my own in 2016. That experience showed me how emotional, transformative, and detail-driven this moment can be—and how overwhelming it can feel without the right support. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I understand what it’s like to navigate spaces that lack empathy or inclusivity. That’s why I founded Janna Simone Events: to bring organization, elegance, and thoughtful advocacy to every couple, ensuring each celebration reflects their love, values, and vision.

Growing up in a creative, family-centered environment, I was always involved in community events and entrepreneurial projects. I later became a two-time Certified Wedding Planner and gained hands-on experience assisting planners as both a lead and administrative assistant. Today, I draw on my background in customer care, my eye for detail, and my passion for making people feel seen to create elevated, meaningful celebrations. My goal is to help couples plan a wedding day that feels as authentic and beautiful as they are.
