Hi, I’m jacqueline.

A woman in a floral dress standing among purple and yellow wildflowers on a hillside with black, burnt tree branches in the background.

this is me.

like, the real unfiltered
“this is actually
my life” me.

I’ve been in the event world for over a decade, and if there’s one thing I know for sure—it’s that weddings should be FUN. Like, did-that-really-just-happen, can’t-stop-talking-about-it kind of fun.

I plan destination weddings all across the U.S. (but the West has my heart), and I’m all in on the big, bold, “are-we-actually-doing-this?” kind of ideas. My planning style is personal, detail-obsessed, and fueled by snacks, Swig, and a lot of real talk.

If you want a wedding that feels like you, looks insane in the best way, and flows like magic behind the scenes—good news: I freaking got this.

XO,

Jacqueline

I’M MORE THAN JUST YOUR planner.

    From the very first moment I met Jacqueline I knew that she was the wedding coordinator for us and oh man, she went above and beyond our expectations. Her infectious positivity, attention to detail, and overall professionalism made the entire experience such a breeze.

    The day of, I really wanted to be present and soak up every moment. I was so grateful Jacqueline was there because I was able to do exactly that. She handled all the details. All the vendors. Made all the last minute decisions while I got ready and spent my last few moments really taking it in.

    "Truly she was a lifesaver during our wedding and I honestly don't know what I would have done without her."

    I felt like I could truly count on Jacqueline the months, weeks, and days before my wedding. She was always accommodating with phone call times, and meetings even though we both had busy schedules. She prioritizes her clients and honestly knows how to execute anything and everything that has to do with weddings.

THE SUNRAE PLANNING PROCESS

HOW WE WORK TOGETHER

1. Connect

Consultation. Contract. Retainer.
Once you’re official we start with our onboarding call where we walk you through the planning timeline, resources, and the tools we use through the process.

2. Align

We start by getting to know you & your partner, your priorities, and your vision. This is where we build a strong foundation and get to know what truly matters to you.

We want you to feel heard, understood, and aligned from the start.

This is where the magic happens….Back and forth emails, fittings, tastings, late night planning sessions, and all the thoughtful decisions.

We help keep you on track so that nothing falls through the cracks.

4. Celebrate

This is where the work comes to life… it’s TIME TO PARTY and enjoy the beautiful celebration that you’ve spent the last months (or years) planning for.

You’re getting married to your best friend and we can’t wait for you to enjoy every minute.

5. Begin

You’re officially MARRIED and saying goodbye at the end of your wedding night is my least favorite part of the process but we’re just so damn happy for you to start the next chapter of your life.

Your forever starts now and we’ll be forever cheering you on.
