I've DJed over 100 weddings, and these Modern Grace is definitely at the top when it comes to a coordination team. They made my job SO much easier because they were on top of every...
thing. Not only was the wedding perfectly organized, but the vendors were able to do our jobs with ease and the wedding party was able to enjoy the night and not have to worry about the frivolous things. The bride said it was the best night of her life. They made everything better for everyone. :) This is why I always encourage people to hire a coordinator. Trust me, it's worth it.
Wow I can't say enough great things about Jessica and Ashlee of Modern Grace Events! They are top tier planners, and amazing women! Ashlee coordinated with all the best vendors and...
Jessica brought our design vision to life, and were such a joy to work with throughout the process! We used their partial planning + design package and honestly, I wish we would have found them sooner and used their full service planning package so we would have had their expertise from the beginning of the process. Due to COVID, we had to postpone our 2020 wedding and THANK GOD we had Modern Grace, because I don't know how we would have managed the rescheduling process without them. They took all the stress of off us contacting vendors, so the only thing we had to focus on was finding a new date. We finally had our big day a year later (3/21/21), it was absolutely magical and it was 100% because we had Ashlee, Jessica and their assistant Kari - aka THE most amazing and kind Lady in Waiting of all time. They executed every detail on wedding day perfectly, and made it look easy! I'm smiling writing this review and thinking of my experience working with these amazing women, and I promise you will too, if you ever have the pleasure of working with them! CANNOT recommend them enough!
Modern Grace Events was so amazing to work with! I was part of their vendor team (videography) for a wedding last weekend at Andaz Scottsdale Resort and I want to work with them fo...
rever. The couple had to rescheduled their wedding due to COVID. Normally without a planner, that means reaching out to ALL the vendors, redoing contracts, renegotiating prices, and finding any new vendors if the previous vendors can't accommodate the new date. Jessica and Ashlee from Modern Grace Events handled all of that for the couple! As for the wedding, they really tailored everything to the couple's needs and wants but also made sure that we, as vendors, were able to do our best work. They were extremely organized, made sure all vendors knew where to go and when, and provided us with an extremely detailed timeline of the day. The wedding went super smoothly, the couple was extremely happy the whole time, and the guests were taken care of. What an amazing team. Can't wait to work with them in the near future. Jessica and Ashlee are the planners you need!
I cannot say enough about the MGE team! They were on top of everything! Even down to asking a groomsman to take gum out of his mouth before the ceremony (for pictures sake) and giv...
ing him a mint instead! 🙌🏼
My lady in waiting was phenomenal as well! She anticipated my needs before I even knew I needed anything! It was like having more best friends there on your wedding day!
I HIGHLY recommend MGE! You will not be disappointed!
Ashlee and Jessica are an amazing team! As a vendor that has worked with them behind the scenes I can say their attention to the bride and details is phenomenal.

sed you are going to be day of?! You need to hire someone you can give all the stress, anxiety and logistics to so you can enjoy your Big Day. (You only get to do this once, right?!)
Great! So you are hiring a wedding planner but why hire Modern Grace Events?
BECAUSE ASHLEE AND JESSICA ARE AWESOME! (Wow, I’m really screaming a lot...)
As a DJ/MC that’s worked with Modern Grace, I can attest that these girls have both the professionalism and the personality that you’ll fall in love with today, tomorrow and on your wedding day.
Don’t you want your planner to call you up and say “Hey, Girl, Hey!” (Or Boy, it’s the 21st century and it’s all love.) With Modern Grace, it’s like you got two new best friends and those friends really know what the f*** is going on. #WinWin
Modern Grace will exceed your expectations, you’ll have one of the coolest days of your life and then you’ll get two new best friends. How much does that cost? PRICELESS.
In summary:
1. You’re stressed.
2. It’s healthy to get help.
3. You need a Wedding Planner.
4. You found this page (Modern Grace Events).
5. You like their vibe.
6. They’re best friends and now you’ll be their throuple.

lient feels well taken care of, which is so important since planning a wedding can feel daunting! The two of them together are truly a power duo, and each play into each others' strengths.

I would highly recommend them time and time again!

beat personality and continually smiling faces. It’s such a welcoming and joyful experience to see the wedding planners on the wedding day eager to assist with anything you need. These two always have the answer and are ready to do anything that they need to, in order to ensure a smooth, happy, wedding day for their clients. As a vendor, it is such a relief to arrive to a wedding day and know exactly what to expect. At Monarch Events we feel honored to be on their preferred vendor list and look forward to working with them again soon!

tantly adjusting knocked decorations and assisting myself and other vendors by thinking ahead to make sure no hiccups were had throughout the entire night. It honestly seemed like J & A were having a freaking blast all evening dancing around to music with nothing but smiles on an evening that was absolutely perfect. I will recommend them to every couple I come across to take the stress of planning their wedding of their shoulders, as well as to make sure the evening goes flawlessly. Plus, there are two of them! How can you beat that?!
We chose to hire MGE for their full planning package (which included day of coordination) at the very beginning of our wedding planning. Until we began working with them, I had no ...
idea how helpful it would be! Every step of the way, they provided checklists, advice, venue options, budget tracking, decor help, and so much more. On top of the planning, Jessica and Ashlee are so sweet, and really treated us like friends! It felt like a truly VIP experience. When we were misunderstanding some budget items, they worked through it with us and made sure we were happy and understood :) On top of it all, our wedding day timeline was complicated and they were patient in working with us right up until the week before! Then comes the wedding day...and it was literally PERFECT! Everything about our vision for that day was made into reality by these ladies! I enjoyed my getting ready time and never even knew about the little fires they were putting out :) It was stress-free, they were flexible and always had a smile on their face, and best of all, our family and guests couldn't stop raving about how wonderful they were. Highly recommend MGE for any of their planning services...amazingly sweet, talented and hard working ladies!
We chose Modern Grace Events as our day-of coordinators as when I first spoke with them, they made me feel completely comfortable in trusting them to make our day perfect. A few we...
dding planners we had spoken with before choosing Modern Grace made me feel like my opinion or ideas didn't matter and that since they were wedding planners they knew best, but that wasn't the case with Modern Grace - they guided me and provided lots of tips and ideas to me, while still allowing the wedding to be exactly how we wanted it to be.
When the day of the wedding came Jessica handled everything without bothering or worrying me all day. I absolutely felt like a princess and was able to focus on spending time with my new husband and family and friends without having to worry about any wedding timelines or details.
Our perfect wedding wouldn't have been possible without Modern Grace and we highly recommend them to help make your day perfect as well!
Ashlee and Jessica are the best! My husband and I decided to do a destination wedding/elopement in AZ (we live in MD) in under 3 months and we are so glad TRPP was available. They'...
re thoughtful, creative, and attentive. They took the time to listen to what we wanted, explained things, answered all our questions and when they say "don't worry, we'll take care of it," they really and truly mean it - all with a 3 hour time zone difference. They were so incredibly helpful all throughout the planning process and providing weekly updates. It was unbelievable at how stress free they made planning an out of state wedding. They coordinated with all our vendors and the venue all the way through. Our families loved them on the day of and we have gotten so many comments about how proactive and friendly they were. My husband and I have both agreed that our wedding day was so stress free and far exceeded our expectations, we cannot imagine our day being as amazing as it was without Jessica and Ashlee!!
Ashlee and Jess are the absolute BEST!! I couldn't have imagined a more perfect day. Their attention to detail and creativity are unmatched. On a day where you are stressed to the ...
max they always made me feel special and helped me relax!

oved the planning process for me. It was fantastic to have them for brainstorming help and to bounce ideas off of. They made sure my planning schedule was reasonable, which kept my stress level so much lower so that I didn’t always feel like maybe I should be farther along than I am. Several times when I was worried about something, they said “Don’t worry; we’ll take care of it.” They had back up plans in case things fell through. They were willing to have the hard conversations with vendors for us. They went above and beyond. I can’t tell you how valuable they are! My husband was initially totally convinced we didn’t need any planners or coordinators and after our wedding he said he is really glad we hired them. He especially appreciated that they took care of issues that came up during the event so that we didn’t have to deal with them. We also got excellent feedback from our venue about them. The venue staff loved them and said they were proactive, prompt, easy to work with, and the venue would rather work with them than most other wedding planners. You can tell that Jess and Ashlee love what they do, which really comes through in their work and interactions. I would hire TRPP again in a heartbeat and would highly recommend them to all my friends!
We loved working with Ashlee and Jessica! They were attentive, fun, and professional! We hired them less than a month before our wedding (when we realized we were in over our heads...
) to help with final details and timeline. Thank God they were available! They were in constant contact with us and our vendors to ensure our day was exactly as we had envisioned! They made certain no detail was overlooked. My husband and I were able to enjoy our day without worrying about a thing! Thank you!
I loved working with Jessica and Ashlee of TRPP! My husband and I were very overwhelmed in our planning process, but they helped us get organized, find vendors, and start making pr...
ogress. They also designed and created all of our decor miraculously within our budget. Not only was this a huge relief, but it all looked beautiful on our wedding day. Throughout the whole process, these ladies were incredibly hardworking, highly organized, and fun to work with!
I am newly engaged, and Jessica and Ashlee have been so amazing me in guiding me through the beginning of the process! They are so passionate about what they do, and the first piec...
e of advice they gave me was, "There is no right or wrong way to get married. Feel free to get creative and have fun with it!" This made me feel so much better, because I was worried about falling into the "me too" wedding category -- I love the idea of putting my unique spin on all the wedding details, and I know these gals will support me through it all!!
