Top 20 WHY I LOVE WEDDINGS
I plan and design events for the bold, rebellious, creative, and soulful! I love pairing creative bold and unexpected choices with beautiful design. I will encourage you to make thoughtful decisions that are true to your priorities, personalities, and relationship. This is your party, there are no rules!
I still cry at almost every wedding and feel so lucky to play an instrumental role in such meaningful life events. Developing relationships with my couples is a critical part of my process. I want to build a solid foundation, so you feel my support and genuine investment in you.

After being engaged for almost a year, while 6 months pregnant, my husband and I suddenly decided we were ready to tie the knot... fast. I wanted a full-blown estate wedding, 3 day weekend extravaganza. Everyone I reached out to (planners, vendors, etc.) basically told me I was nuts and it wasn't possible in such short notice, especially in the post Covid wedding boom. Insert: Jessica. She had space in her calendar and was not only up for the challenge, I think she enjoyed it. ;) Within 2 weeks we landed my DREAM venue. Like... beyond. Leaving us 6 weeks to plan everything. Jessica went above and beyond in the delivery. Almost every vendor was a personal referral from her. And they were all incredible! Everything was perfect. Cliché, but I mean it when I say that. Not a single thing was missed. Not a single thing was less than what I dreamt it could be. Even on a tight schedule. (I'm talking... the day of the wedding she had a delayed delivery arrive at her house and her husband drove it to the venue in literally just the knick of time.) There were a couple hiccups during the planning process and Jessica handled them like a pro; I didn't even know about them until she had it handled. My wedding planning experience was a delight! A joy! Soooo magical and fun. And the wedding itself... life changing. For my husband and I. For our family and friends who attended. Even the vendors there were commenting on how beautiful and magical the event was. I don't even know how to really sum it up into words here. Jessica set a new standard for my life. My standards for who I work with in... anything... have risen exponentially. I didn't even know it was possible to feel so supported. To have my vision not only understood, but up-leveled. To have it executed with such competence and clear communication. Suffice to say... I highly recommend choosing Jessica for your special day. Jessica -- you are an integral piece of our family story, forever engraved in my heart.
Art & Soul Events planned the best post-elopement party for us! Well, it was more than a party... more like an entire celebratory weekend. Since my husband and I live in San Francisco, we relied heavily on Jessica's knowledge and connections in the Los Angeles area. We had no issues in planning remotely, which was a huge relief. She guided us every step of the way and knew the perfect locations for our welcome party and Sunday farewell event. As a planner, Jessica is meticulous, responsive, thoughtful and an absolute pleasure to work with. Her ideas truly made the entire weekend feel whole. We are SO thankful. Highly recommend!!
We got connected to Jessica through a good friend so we knew we would be in good hands but despite those high expectations, Jessica exceeded in all respects.
Every phase of the planning and execution was flawless. From ideation and design, to planning the guest experience, to sweating the details (hello napkin colors), to running the show expertly on the day(s) of the event. Flawless!
The wedding was everything we wanted it to be and more and it wouldn't have been possible without Jessica. Cannot recommend highly enough.

I could write a dissertation about why Jessica Carrillo was the perfect planner for us, but no one wants to read that. To start, it is important for us to work people who share our values, and Jessica embodies those values. Please check out her instagram because she does a great job explaining how we asked her to plan us a surprise ceremony based on a framework we gave her. She took our vision, and she brought it to life. I appreciated the way she communicates, her passion, and her style. I loved that she asks questions and gives her advised so that our day was prioritized. All of the other vendors have expressed how great it was to work with Jessica, and I completely agree. If I need to have another event, I will definitely be calling her.
I can't imagine having done my wedding without Jessica of Art & Soul events. She made our wedding dreams come true! We got married in November 2021 and so many of our wedding guests said it was the best wedding they've ever been to and a huge part of that was due to how Jessica seamlessly executed everything behind the scenes. Jessica is a great communicator, extremely detail oriented, creative, and thoughtful. She has great ideas and also tons of contacts in the wedding industry. It was a joy to work with her and I highly recommend anyone looking for a planner hire Art & Soul events!
Jessica planned our November 2021 Los Angeles wedding and was truly a life-saver in every way. From her deep rolodex of awesome vendors, to her incredible eye for design, to her intuition and organization, there was truly nothing she didn't make a hundred times better! We even had to make a big last-minute readjustment with our guest list because of covid numbers, and Jessica helped us figure that out, too. I would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding, especially those who, like me, tend to over-plan on their own and would like to relax and enjoy the event. I couldn't recommend Art & Souls more!
Jessica was absolutely incredible. She helped my husband and I create the wedding of our dreams and I cannot be more grateful to her. She works so hard and really and truly cares for the people she works with. I feel like I gained a friend over the wedding planning process. With covid and events being so up in the air, she helped me every step of the way and was always one step ahead of me with her knowledge of openings and restrictions. We ended up with more than I could have dreamt of. The atmosphere at our event was kind, loving, and effortless. Every detail was perfect. I highly recommend Jessica!
I am writing this review as the MOB, who lived 2,000 miles away from our bride & groom during the planning process. Jessica was a dream come true, and creatively sourced everything we wanted (and dreamed of). I never could have managed any of it without her. Her relationships with all the professionals run deep, and she was able to find the exact people who could carry out my daughter's vision. It was remarkable how Jessica helped my daughter create the story of her wedding, without imposing. And Jessica was always respectful and transparent about expenses and our budget.
The wedding was PERFECT and totally reflected the creative spirit of our beautiful couple.
We also called upon Jessica to work a Double Header by having her organize a farewell "Pool Party" the next day at the same venue. She flipped everything, orchestrated an entirely new vibe, menu, and setting. Everybody was happy, relaxed and delighted.
I know how much Jessica had to do behind the scenes to make our two events so joyful and carefree for all of us, and I am so grateful. We have the best forever memories of a wonderful day.
