Take the overwhelm out of wedding planning so you can get back to enjoying every minute of your engagement!

START PLANNING NOW

When you think about planning your wedding, what comes to mind?

Do you think of all of your guests having an amazing time at your wedding and enjoying every thoughtfully curated detail?
Or do you cringe at the thought of calling yet another vendor and getting yet another estimate that is way out of your budget?

Do you enjoy thinking about infusing your wedding day with meaningful experiences and details?
Or do you feel an overwhelming sense of dread at all of the endless to-do items on your list?

Do you light up with joy and anticipation when someone asks you how the wedding planning is going?
Or do you cringe at the thought of admitting that you’re in over your head?

Planning a wedding isn’t easy.

Do any of these sound familiar?

  • You scour the internet looking for answers to obvious questions, but there seems to be a conspiracy against transparency of information.
  • After hours of researching, you start to second guess some of your decisions.
  • You feel like you’ll ultimately have to sacrifice your dreams for your budget.
START PLANNING

Let’s face it. There’s more to planning a wedding than picking out pretty details…

I get it. You haven’t planned a wedding before and suddenly you’re thrown into this whole wedding world and it’s a lot.

Then add COVID to the mix and you don’t even know where to begin.

People are asking you all these questions and you don’t know how to answer them.


You know you need to start planning or perhaps you’ve already started planning, but there’s just so much!

Because you want a wedding that is special and feels like you.  You want your friends to be raving about your wedding.  You want the best wedding ever.

But you want to keep people safe.  You also want to hug people.  You want the wedding you’ve always dreamed of.  But you also don’t want to wait.


You feel like you’re on an emotional roller coaster.


After looking at all the blogs, magazines, Pinterest and apps, and seeing all the news articles about COVID weddings, you’re starting to get this heavy feeling in your chest that you can’t shake.

Because you just have no idea what you’re doing or what you should do.


So, you may have looked into hiring a wedding planner, which sounds great! But, it’s over your budget. And you just can’t spend that amount of money.


You probably found a free timeline online that you think looks okay, but you don’t really know.  And you read some articles like “5 tips to creating an amazing micro wedding”, which is sort of helpful, but not really.


You’re feeling your way in the dark, not sure who or what can help you.

That’s why I created Passport to Joy

Passport to Joy is a step-by-step online wedding planning course that guides you through the ENTIRE wedding planning process from your engagement to your wedding day.

So, instead of searching the internet for answers on whether your budget is realistic or what you need to know about hiring vendors, or looking at every color combo under the sun, you’ll know…

Exactly what you need to know:

1


what & why

What you need to be working on and why

2


how

How to actually plan and design your wedding so that it’s unique and unmistakably you

3


plan with a pro

With reliable information from an experienced professional

Which means…

No more fumbling in the dark. No more achy chest.

No more guessing or overwhelm and way more JOY.

Saving you 300+ hours of research and time spent worrying, stressing or feeling overwhelmed.

Saving you money from costly mistakes and helping you to find ways to work with your budget.

The Passport to Joy program gives you the opportunity to actually enjoy your engagement, the planning process and your wedding day… even during COVID.

So you can plan your wedding on your own without losing your mind or blowing your budget.

If things couldn’t get any better, you also have the ability to work with me one on one.

Now as I’m sure you’ve experienced in the past when you’re doing something new for the first time you’ll always run into some areas or tasks that are just more difficult or challenging for you.

Some things are no problem. And other areas you struggle with.

You find yourself having to do things multiple times wasting time and money.  Or you find yourself going around in circles trying to figure out a solution.

It happens to everyone. Myself included.  And it happens with any big project including planning your wedding.

With me as your advisor you have the ability to ask questions over email, but when you’re struggling with something it’s much easier to sit down and talk through it.

You can book these 1-hour planning sessions at any time to discuss anything about planning or designing your wedding.

This could be about your design and coming up with a creative solution. It could be about finding a vendor you’re struggling with. It could be about dealing with COVID restrictions. It could be about ironing out your schedule or getting everything set up for your wedding day. Or just simply a problem or situation you’re in.

I’m here to work through the problem with you and help you find a solution.

With the advisor and planning sessions, this is the closest you’ll get to having a full time wedding planner, but at a fraction of the cost.

You can add on 1-hour planning sessions at any time for $150 each or save 11% by purchasing 3 for $400.

“Being a bride was not an easy job for me, with all of the decisions I had to make constantly, while working and being stressed out. I’m so glad that Jamie was there to help me through the planning process. Jamie’s knowledge and guidance was invaluable to us and truly made our special day a dream come true.”

Kristina & Matt

“With a busy work and social life, Jamie made it easier to plan our wedding by helping us understand our options, organize our thoughts and ideas, and make sure we stayed within our budget. Jamie’s knowledge and expertise went beyond what we expected. We don’t know what we would have done without her.”

Alithia & Ramon

“Hiring Jamie was honestly the best money I spent for my wedding. She helped me through the whole process from start to finish and I could not have done it without her. I can get kind of stressed out and everyone told me that wedding planning would be crazy and stressful but, because I could rely on Jamie, I was able to relax and actually enjoy the process.”

Tami & Brian

CAN’T I JUST GET ALL OF THIS INFORMATION FROM A WEDDING PLANNING BOOK OR ONLINE RESOURCE?

There is a lot of information out there.  Some good, but a lot bad. There is a lot of incomplete, misleading or flat out wrong information being given by those who don’t really know what they are talking about or have no experience actually planning weddings.

The question you have to ask yourself is, who can you trust?  Who is the person behind the information you’re using?  And does it actually apply to YOUR wedding?  The only place you’ll get the right information, sound guidance and advice specific to you is through Passport to Joy.
