Yes, you can have a Star Wars-inspired wedding that’s chic, elevated & absolutely unforgettable.

Whether you're a low-key fan or a full-on Jedi couple, there are so many ways to sprinkle your love for the galaxy far, far away into your wedding day without turning your reception into Comic-Con. (Unless that’s your vibe, in which case, we’ll help you run with it beautifully.)

Here’s a sneak peek at a wedding galaxy built with style + personality:
🍸 Signature Cocktails
💫 The Dark Side: Think a smoky mezcal & blackberry situation
💫 The Jedi Juice: Bright, citrusy & sparkling served with a saber stir stick, obviously

🍴The Menu Gets a Makeover
💫 Passed bites become “Yoda Soda + Vader Taters”
💫 A station of “Wookiee Cookies” + “Obi-Wan Cannoli” for dessert
💫 Champagne? More like Champbacca.

🎶 The Imperial March
💫 But make it string quartet chic for a seriously iconic grand entrance ( it works)

💥 Lightsaber Sendoff
💫 Trade sparklers for glowing lightsabers for a safe, stunning, unforgettable finale moment
(Bonus: it looks amazing in photos.)

💍 Vows & Details
💫 His and hers vow books: “I love you.” “I know.”
💫 Mini Millennium Falcon cake topper or favors for guests to take home the magic
💫 Yes… you can have a droid ring bearer. We will absolutely coordinate that.

From a subtle nod to full-on cosplay...
We are so here for the couples who lead with personality & know that wedding experiences aren't about being serious... it’s about being true to you.

We help our couples design weddings that feel like themselves whether that includes designer shoes & lightsabers or one very fashionable Darth Vader moment on the dance floor.

Because when your planner gets it? You can do anything.

Even turn your galaxy-sized love story into the wedding of your dreams. ✨

May the 4th be with you always.
Planning your own Jedi-level celebration? We’re ready when you are. 🚀

Let this be your gentle reminder…

No matter what happens in the days or hours leading up to your wedding, don’t lose sight of what truly matters.

You’re marrying your best friend. The love of your life. The one your heart chose. You’re surrounded by your favorite people, the ones who showed up to celebrate you. There's laughter in the air, good food, flowing drinks & music that moves your soul.

So if the linens arrive in the wrong shade...
If your shuttle is running fashionably late…
If the ceremony starts a few minutes behind schedule…
If the candles on your tables won’t stay lit or the skies decide to bless you with a little rain…
Let it be.

Because none of that holds a candle to the love in the room.
Your guests won’t remember how the napkins were folded they’ll remember how you felt that day. The way you looked at each other. The laughter. The tears. The joy.

At Jenn’s Joyous Events, we believe your wedding day should be experienced, not just managed. We handle the logistics, the questions, the behind-the-scenes details, so you can stay present in the moment & fully soak in the magic.

Because when you let go of perfection & lean into presence, that’s when the real memories are made.

Thank you for following along this 28 tip series. Look forward to a series of posts soon.

Let’s talk about something that should be obvious but so often gets overlooked: food & drinks in your getting ready spaces. 🍓🥂

You’d be surprised how many wedding mornings kick off at 6am (or earlier!) for hair & makeup… & the next real meal? Usually dinner around 5-6pm. That’s nearly 12 hours of excitement, champagne toasts, & nonstop activity without a proper bite to eat. 😅

We don’t want hangry couples. We don’t want dizzy bridesmaids. We definitely don’t want VIPs feeling faint before the ceremony.

Here’s what we recommend:
✔️ Assign someone trustworthy (or let your planner/coordinator handle it!) to bring or arrange delivery of food + drinks.
✔️ Make it fun! Think brunch boards, bagel bars, smoothie stations, or themed snacks based on your love story.
✔️ Don’t forget hydration. Champagne is cute. Water is crucial.
✔️ Make sure someone helps tidy up the space afterward.

Whether it’s your maid of honor, a trusted sibling, or part of the pro team, someone needs to be in charge. At Jenn’s Joyous Events, we help our couples anticipate the little things that make a big difference in their wedding experience & this is a great example. 💛

You deserve to feel nourished, calm & ready for one of the most unforgettable days of your life.

The Wedding. The Honeymoon. The 47 tiny-but-important details you swore you'd remember... 😅 Suddenly, it’s the week before the wedding & you’re asking yourself,
“Where did we put the vow books?”
(Spoiler alert: They’re in a tote bag... under your fiancé’s groomsmen gifts... next to the welcome sign... probably.)

As your wedding approaches, your life becomes a beautiful blur of Amazon boxes, altered outfits, RSVP counts & champagne toasts. It’s exciting. It’s emotional. It’s easy for things to get lost in the shuffle, especially if you're heading off on your honeymoon right after.

So here’s our expert tip (born from years of solving this exact headache):

Create a calm-out-of-chaos system.
🎯 Start organizing everything you’ve gathered during planning signage, accessories, outfits, honeymoon items, and little things like vow books and day-of cards into clearly labeled boxes or totes.
💡 Think categories like:
Ceremony Decor
Flat Lay Details
Reception
Getting Ready
Honeymoon Essentials

👉🏼 Bonus: Store it all in one easy-to-access spot. Not the back of the closet. Not five different people’s cars. Somewhere simple & central. That way, when it’s time to pack or hand things off to your planner, everything is right where you need it.
Let’s make sure you’re fully prepared, so you can focus on celebrating your love story!

👗 Wedding Day Packing Essentials
The Wedding Attire
Wedding Dress: The star of the show. Ensure it’s steamed, fluffed, and ready to wow.
Shoes: Bonus points if they’re broken in and blister-free.
Undergarments: From shapewear to that perfect strapless bra.
Accessories: Jewelry, hairpieces, veil & your something borrowed/blue.
Garter (if you're including one).

Beauty + Getting Ready
Makeup & touch-up kit
Perfume
Robe or outfit for getting ready photos
Emergency kit (hello, safety pins & stain sticks!)
Hair tools or accessories

Ceremony & Reception
Vow books
Marriage license
Rings
Welcome sign & decor
Flat lay details (invites, rings, shoes, etc. for your photographer!)
Cards or gifts for each other

Honeymoon Prep
Passports
Luggage packed & ready
Chargers & travel docs
Outfits & essentials for your first days away

Wedding Planning Tip #26: Include Your Fur Babies! 🐾💍

We’ve said it before & we’ll say it again your wedding should feel like YOU. If your four-legged bestie is part of your love story, they deserve a little moment in the spotlight, too.

Some planners might shy away from pets at weddings…
But not us. We’re all about the fur babies. 🐶💕

If your venue allows it & your pet is well-behaved, consider including them as:
🐾 Ring Bearer
🐾 “Dog of Honor”
🐾 “Best Doggie”
🐾 Flower Pup
…or any title your heart desires (bonus points for cute outfits, bowties, or flower crowns 👑).

🎀 Pro Tip: Make sure you have a dedicated handler you trust or hire a professional like to help during the ceremony & reception so you can enjoy your day stress-free.

Can’t have your pet onsite? Get creative:
🐕 Include them in your engagement photos
🐕 Create a signature cocktail in their honor
🐕 Add custom stir sticks, napkins, or signage featuring their sweet face
🐕 Feature them on your seating chart, welcome sign, or bar menu

At the end of the day, your wedding experience is about love your love for each other, your people & yes, your pets. So let them be part of the joy. 🐾

✨ Come back soon for Tips #27 & #28. You won’t want to miss them!
