Jessica Kuipers, Santa Barbara Wedding Planner

Wife. Mother of two rugrats. Laugh like a PEZ dispenser, with my mouth wide open and my head way back. Proudly use the word Hella, as I am a Bay Area Native. Love a good 'Farm To Bar' Chopin Greyhound. The louder the music, the better, preferably Electronic Dance Music, but I'll pretty much blare anything with a good hook. I love antique shopping and am obsessed with HGTV shows, and with no shame, Reality TV. If I could live anywhere, it would be in a Pottery Barn or Restoration Hardware catalog. I own cowboy boots {nickname is "Boots"} and leopard print pumps. I'll eat my weight in cheese, sushi, and Indian Food. I carry a bottle of Tabasco in my car and I love to drive fast. I'm high energy and hard working. I talk too fast and I truly believe that I was meant to be the third Gilmore Girl. I inhale what life has to offer, good or bad, and I am not afraid to voice my opinion!

The team I pull together for my events is unique every time. My clients vision, budget, and personality is what drives the creative collaboration, and is what makes my job so much fun! I want each and every wedding that I do, be a true reflection of who my clients are, and always find touching ways to incorporate special details that are distinctive to them. I am a huge advocate for my clients, and I work very hard to ensure they receive the best service, quality products and memorable experience throughout the planning process as well as on the wedding day. My experience and years in the industry, along with the relationships I have cultivated, can provide this. I also take very good care of my vendors, as I am a firm believer in staying local, if possible, and supporting your events community. As a village, we thrive!
