Jackie Fogartie Events

Experiencia fantástica: Words cannot express how awesome Jackie and her crew are to work with… from the initial planning process to the tiny details, Jackie knows the right people and makes sure everything is beautiful and runs smoothly. As the mother of the bride, my goal was to be able to enjoy this precious time with my daughter and to be present with my family and friends during the big event. Jackie delivered! Mary Beth and I had a blast the entire weekend and it was such a relief to know that Jackie and her team were in the background and we didn’t have to worry about anything! On a final note, I love that Jackie is not afraid to share her opinions and after years in the industry knows what works and what doesn’t. Her recommendations were spot on and I highly recommend Jackie Fogartie Events for any special occasion!

Experiencia fantástica: Our family cannot say enough wonderful things about Jackie, Amanda, and the entire JFE team. Jackie is exceptionally organized and professional, and she kept my parents and me completely at ease from start to finish. Jackie quickly became a friend—her warm personality and sense of humor make her impossible not to love. It’s clear she is doing exactly what she was meant to do and she does it all with a smile. Our wedding was truly the wedding of my dreams, and every vendor commented on how easy Jackie made their job. We loved working with her so much that she’ll also be coordinating my younger sister’s wedding in 2026.

Experiencia fantástica: Our wedding planning and event execution queen!!! We worked with Jackie as our full planner throughout our 8 month engagement to plan our wedding weekend at a private residence in Alabama and enjoyed every moment of working together. As an events professional myself, there is simply no other planner I trust more to develop event designs, production schedules, timelines, etc. than Jackie Fogartie Events. JFE carefully and critically problem solved with/for us throughout the process, coordinated vendors across state lines/time zones, and executed incredible events for us. Our wedding weekend included multiple room flips to transform the main living space into our rehearsal dinner location, ceremony space and reception dinner seating area. Jackie and her team met every challenge with a “can do” attitude that kept our families and us at ease. The venue is in a remote location on a steep hillside with very minimal parking. Jackie worked closely with all our vendors to develop a production schedule to layer in their individual needs and limitations in order to create a seamless load in/out. Jackie jumped right into wedding planning with us and offered us steady confidence, proven expertise, welcomed humor, and exceptional attention to detail. We are grateful for her guidance along the way and thankful to have forged a forever friendship in the process!

Experiencia fantástica: I got married back in June, so this long overdue, but I could not recommend Jackie Fogartie events enough. Absolutely one of the best decisions I made in my entire wedding planning process! I worked with Amanda (INCREDIBLE!) to coordinate, and she went above and beyond at every turn. She became a quick friend that I could come to with any question or random thought. When my husband had a fun, unconventional idea, she and Jackie jumped in to make it happen (and make it better than we could have thought!). When the weather threatened rain, she talked me through our options to come up with the best plan. When I had a challenge with the venue at the eleventh hour, she (alongside Jackie) stepped in to work with the venue, go to bat for me, make me feel comfortable, and re-assure me that the weekend was going to be perfect, which it was! The weekend of the wedding, I didn't have to think of a single thing except celebrating my marriage with my husband, family and friends, and to me, that is worth its weight in gold. Jackie Fogartie Events = 1000/10!

Experiencia fantástica: If you are thinking of hiring Jackie - do NOT hesitate! She planned our wedding and I don’t know if it could have happened without her. Where we were married, while beautiful, doesn’t do as many weddings are other venues and she had never planned one at the venue before but Jackie handled it masterfully. We put her through so much - tearful calls about forecasts, the Head chef quitting two weeks before, an intense cookie table, you name it and she was always cool, calm, and collected. We had to pivot last minute because of the forecast and she was incredibly supportive and helpful but not pushy - she wants it to be your day just the best version of it possible. She has an incredible eye, each design meeting we were in awe of her ideas and the set-up ended up gorgeous. My in-laws used her for the rehearsal dinner which was amazing because her designs for both complemented perfectly without being matchy. She’s very funny and keeps you at ease. All the bridesmaids and I were wishing she would just hang out with us while getting ready but she was busy making the day perfect. She organized the vendors incredibly well and has really good relationships with them - you can tell they like working with her. Jackie was the best decision for the wedding we made (other than deciding to marry my now husband)! Jealous of who she gets to work with next!!

Experiencia fantástica: I would give 10 stars if that was an option on Google. Amanda with Jackie Fogartie helped me plan a nearly 300 person wedding in 10 months and made every moment go smoothly while making sure that I (the bride) enjoyed it! She is a master at her craft and our day would not have been the same without her help. You will be lucky to have her as your wedding planner!

Experiencia fantástica: Where do I start with Jackie... I think it is safe to say there wouldn't have been a wedding without Jackie. From the moment we talked (over a year before the wedding, bless her for putting up with me that long) I knew I was in good hands. Jackie is calm, professional, knowledgeable and fun. However, I have no doubt that she couldn't get stuff done in an emergency or if anything got out of hand. I should note, that there was literally not one single emergency, issue, discrepancy in over the year working with her. The day was above and beyond. I was calm on my wedding day - I knew I didn't have anything to worry about. I think the best aspect of Jackie is that she was just as excited about the wedding as me. I had a lot of peace knowing that this felt like more than a job to her, she had my husband and I's best interest and genuinely wanted to best wedding for us. Don't think twice about hiring Jackie she is THE BEST!!!!!! **My dad thought it was the best wedding he had ever been to and he was the host - I think that says a lot!

Experiencia fantástica: Cannot say enough about Jackie. She is thoughtful, organized, responsive, calm and very knowledgeable. She was just so delightful to work with and truly made our daughter’s wedding one of the best days of our families life!

Experiencia fantástica: Jackie was FANTASTIC! She made our wedding weekend smooth and flawless - truly nothing went wrong or was stressful, thanks to her. She is extremely organized, responsive and connected with the Charlotte community. Most importantly, she shows deep care for each and every couple she works with and made our wedding weekend memorable beyond belief. We are so thankful for Jackie and she is the highest quality of wedding planner!

Experiencia fantástica: Had my daughter’s wedding this past weekend and it was FLAWLESS. Everything and everyone was where they were supposed to be and when they were supposed to be there. She took great pains to make sure my daughter’s day went off without a hitch and boy did it ever. Her assistants were also phenomenal in getting everything done. They did not leave until everything was taken care of. I HIGHLY recommend Jackie and her services. This was just an absolute dream day for my daughter and her now husband…and it would not have happened without Jackie and her crew. The second we hired her, her main goal was to make sure the wedding was the best it could be…mission accomplished!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: The best wedding planner of all time!! I could not love Jackie more! She planned the wedding of my dreams! So happy to have had her as a planner and now friend!!

Experiencia fantástica: DO NOT HESITATE!!! Book Jackie Fogartie Events, then relax and enjoy the experience of planning the once-in-a-lifetime wedding of your dreams!!! Jackie Fogartie is zealously devoted to her clients. She has cultivated connections with the most talented and respected special event vendors in our region and brings valuable experience to her clients in navigating contracts and managing the vendor team. Jackie is gifted with the ability to establish instant rapport and respect with key persons such as church officials, and she anticipates and addresses client anxieties and concerns and makes herself available for questions and discussions throughout the process. Jackie’s superior organizational skills and detail-oriented approach minimize the potential for problems. In our experience, for the inevitable glitches outside of her control, she was in solution mode before we had a moment of concern. Yard game vendor overbooks the day before the wedding? Jackie secures an alternate. Hotel refuses to distribute welcome bags? Jackie arranges an assistant to greet our guests. Special order charger plates must be received, inspected and unpacked, then re-packed and returned to vendor by freight carrier within a tight time-frame? Jackie has it covered! Jackie has an excellent sense of timing and strong time management skills. She knows when decisions must be made and when actions must be completed, and she makes sure her clients stay on track, which greatly reduces stress in the final month. And when the final week and Big Day arrive, she is the one working around the clock to execute all details to perfection, giving her clients the precious freedom to breathe and be present for each other and their guests and the priceless opportunity to soak in every beautiful detail for a lifetime of memories. Note: This review was completed by Julie Griggs (mother of the bride).

Experiencia fantástica: Jackie was absolutely fabulous! She handled everything perfectly, and promptly. All her vendors were also great. We could not have been happier. She is the best!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Jackie was referred to us by a common connection and we're so glad she was. While we didn't utilize full wedding planning services, we leveraged her team, namely Sasha, for our month-of and day-of coordination. The team at Jackie Fogartie events are extremely helpful and insightful, especially for a couple with their heads already spinning from all of the other wedding planning duties. Our wedding went off without a hitch because of the hours and hours Jackie/Sasha spent connecting with our critical vendors, planning everything to the minute and ensuring we weren't bothered with anything on our wedding day. Can't recommend enough!!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: We absolutely loved working with Jackie to plan our October 2023 wedding! We had a large, outdoor tented wedding at a private residence and she handled all of the logistics flawlessly. She is so knowledgeable about every part of the industry, while also being extremely organized, creative and just delightful to spend time with. The planning process could have been such a stressful time, but she made everything flow so smoothly and kept things easy and simple on our end. She was such a great advocate for us, and a truly phenomenal person to work with. We can’t recommend her enough! She was the MVP of our day. We are so so glad she was recommended to us, and we will truly miss hanging out with her!!

Experiencia fantástica: I cannot recommend Jackie and her team enough - we got married in September 2023 and Jackie made our day as well as the entire wedding planning process so smooth and enjoyable. She is an absolutely wonderful person who is so professional, knows the wedding industry inside and out, and also has a great sense of humor and is so fun to work with. She helped us plan out the timeline and also connected us with a superstar team of vendors. She thought out every detail of our day from a design and logistical standpoint and went absolutely above and beyond to make sure our day was exactly what we’d dreamed of. I truly cannot imagine planning a wedding without Jackie and would absolutely recommend her to everyone I know getting married in the Charlotte area.

Experiencia fantástica: Jackie helped to plan our September 2023 wedding and my husband and I couldn’t be more grateful we found her! Jackie planned a friends weddings in 2022 and after attending her phenomenal wedding and hearing how wonderful she was we had to have her! From the very first conversation with Jackie I knew she was the perfect fit! Jackie makes planning a wedding fun and she knows her stuff! Our wedding day was absolutely PERFECT in every single way and I truly believe that would not have been possible without Jackie! She thought of every detail big and small and made it so that I could enjoy the day without worry! Our guests had an absolute blast and we had the best vendors, all thanks to Jackie’s recommendations and guidance! She’s also a wonderful person to spend time with during the planning process! Would hire her a thousand times over and my husband and family feel the same!

Experiencia fantástica: My wedding was 3 months ago and I wish I had Jackie back in my life!! She is the absolute best! Great energy. Tenacious. Fun to work with. Plus she has the best connections in the business. I didn’t have to lift a finger with Jackie in charge.

Experiencia fantástica: Wedding Planner Extraordinaire We hired Jackie last year for our wedding June 24th. I honestly could not have picked a better planner to help us with the entire process. She took our vision and helped to create a fairy tale wedding for us. I work many hours a week so i had to trust Jackie to bring me options that would couple with the vision i had shared. She did not disappoint. The vendors she helped choose for us were incredible to work with. Our main requirements were that everyone had to have fun, great food, music and great drinks. Greeks are very hard to impress, and all 250 attendees continue to talk about how fabulous of a time the wedding was. Her attention to detail did not go unnoticed. Honestly, I now consider Jackie a friend and am so grateful for everything she did to make our wedding something special.

Experiencia fantástica: I cannot rave enough about Jackie Fogartie Events. Jackie and her team are wonderful to work with. The day flows seamlessly, and everyone is able to just enjoy the flow of the day. She sets everyone around her up for success including her couples, her planning team and all of the vendors she works with. Jackie is the type of planner that fixes the issues before anyone knew they existed. I look forward to working with Jackie and her team again, and I highly recommend her work to anyone looking for an incredible wedding planner.

Experiencia fantástica: The best decision I made when I first started planning my daughters wedding was to hire Jackie. From our first conversation I could tell she was extremely knowledgeable about the whole wedding industry and how to navigate the many vendors we would hire and details we would work through to create the most special wedding. She is positive, fun, creative and a lifelong friend to my whole family! You will never regret hiring Jackie - so respected in the industry. Like every other review stated - she is the glue that holds everything together throughout the whole process. Not to mention the day of the wedding - she is so calm and handles so many details without even bringing them to my attention and treated my daughter with such love and care. You are in fabulous hands with Jackie!

Experiencia fantástica: I wish I could keep adding stars to this review, because Jackie made our daughter’s and son in laws wedding weekend the most amazing experience! It truly was a dream come true for all of us! Her attention to every detail, anticipation of our every need ( most of the time before we even knew we needed anything!) , and her calm but fun demeanor through it all was fabulous! We all want to keep her in the family!!! Thank you for being the BEST, Jackie!

Experiencia fantástica: We cannot say enough wonderful things about Jackie. She absolutely saved us when our wedding was facing some huge challenges and went above and beyond to swoop in and make everything exactly as we envisioned it. Our wedding day -- and the months leading up to it -- would not have been the same without her. Jackie is uniquely able to balance being your fiercest advocate, a straight shooter, and also completely hilarious and able to roll with the punches as they inevitably come up. We were so incredibly fortunate to have her by our side during this process, and wish everyone was so lucky to have a Jackie as part of their wedding.

Experiencia fantástica: Jackie is honestly the absolute best; there are no other words I can use to describe her except for absolutely amazing! Jackie is incredibly professional and truly amazing at what she does. It is apparent that she pours her heart and mind into everything that she does and loves her career. She is outstandingly knowledgeable about anything wedding and planning-related. We hired Jackie as a full wedding planner; helping us from the beginning to the end. She helped my fiance and me navigate through the very confusing world of wedding planning during a pandemic and provided us with honest and helpful insight. She was consistently transparent when it came to choosing vendors, the do’s and don’ts of wedding planning, and overall suggestions. She will go to bat for her clients and will advocate for their wants/needs. Jackie notices the little details that do not seem big at the time but are incredibly important to planning a wedding. Jackie did not steer us wrong! The wedding day approached and went through without any sort of hiccup, and it was breathtakingly beautiful. Everything was planned, organized, and communicated to absolute perfection! During and after our wedding, guests complimented us on what an incredibly beautiful and organized day it was. We attribute all of that to Jackie and her outstanding abilities. On top of Jackie being amazing at what she does, she is also an incredible human being. Jackie is kind, funny, honest, caring, and outgoing. She will absolutely have you crack up laughing in the process of planning your wedding together. I HIGHLY recommend Jackie as a wedding planner; she is one of the very BEST in the Charlotte area and worth every penny and more.

Experiencia fantástica: I cannot rave about Jackie enough. We got engaged in 2019 and were planning for an October 2020 wedding. Due to covid, we had to postpone to May 2021. Jackie was incredible every step of the way in helping us get things reschedule. In fact, she did everything. Our wedding was the most perfect, incredible day and it absolutely would not have been possible without her. She is exceptionally talented, knowledgeable on the industry and vendors, great at negotiating, has an awesome eye, over communicates (which you want) and most importantly she is ALWAYS ON. She did not skip a beat and not to mention she's such a fun time to hang out with! Thank you Jackie for helping make our wedding dreams possible.

Experiencia fantástica: My husband and I got the "We’re almost there! Event Management (aka “Month of Coordination”)" wedding service and it was perfect for us. We sent all of our vendor contracts and the planner handled all the final coordination. She coordinated with vendors, created a day-of timeline, sent the timeline to all of or vendors, and made sure we got what we paid for/what was in our contracts. We worked with Sasha and she was AMAZING; cannot say enough good things about her. She was a sounding board for issues (vendor and family related), advocated for us with our vendors, gave recommendations/suggestions when needed, and made both of us feel so comfortable. She interacted well with our families, and made an effort to get to know them and our wedding party. Sasha even came to our home a couple days before the ceremony to pick up items for the rehearsal, ceremony, and reception so we didn't have to stress about bringing things with us the day of. She made the final month so easy and as stress-free as possible. I would work with her again and highly recommend her!!

Experiencia fantástica: I truly can't imagine planning a wedding without Jackie! We got engaged and married during COVID and Jackie made the process so easy despite the ever changing restrictions. She helped us lock down the best vendors which was a huge help to me and my out-of-town Mom. She was able to bring our vision to life! Wedding weekend was truly stress free because I knew Jackie had everything covered. A massive rainstorm blew through 30 minutes before our ceremony, and Jackie had it all under control. She is responsive, respectful and fun! I highly recommend Jackie- she's the best!

Experiencia fantástica: I can't say enough good things about Jackie. We hired her in March 2019 to help plan our March 2020 wedding. COVID-19 shut things down in North Carolina about a week before our wedding was scheduled to take place. She helped us pivot and postpone two more times, and we were finally able to celebrate a scaled-down celebration in March 2021 (at a new venue, no less). Each hurdle that was thrown our way was made easier and far less stressful because of Jackie. In the end, everything was absolutely perfect. Jackie was not only consistently responsive and extremely helpful, but she was also kind, funny, and made the wedding planning process fun. Not being originally from the Charlotte area, she was extremely helpful in connecting us with the best vendors and coordinating those relationships. We would not have changed a thing about our day, and the long wait was completely worth it. We felt stress-free, primarily because of Jackie and her great work. She is the absolute best!

Experiencia fantástica: As a mother helping plan a long distance wedding for our daughter, hiring Jackie Fogartie was the best investment we made. From our first meeting, Jackie instilled confidence, listening to our hopes and offering creative ideas and sound guidance throughout the entire planning period. She made it fun, personal, and garnered our trust quickly. When one wedding date turned into three, thanks to COVID-19, Jackie was unwavering in her support and determination to help us have the wedding we’d dreamed of. She helped us with important decisions and worked quickly and efficiently to ensure that we were able to retain our vendors despite the date changes. Jackie’s success is all about relationships - with her clients and with fellow outstanding vendors. She is a wonderful communicator and problem solver. She earned our trust early and consequently, our wedding celebration went beautifully. She handled the details and we were able to relax and enjoy our family and friends. There are many wedding planners out there, but few (in my experience with friends planning weddings) have the experience, professionalism, and relaxed charm that Jackie does. She is simply top notch.

Experiencia fantástica: Jackie is an absolutely amazing wedding planner! I have a hectic, full time job, so hiring Jackie was the best decision I made. She made the process so organized, easy, and fun. Due to COVID-19, my fiancé and I decided to downsize our September 2020 wedding to an intimate, backyard event. Jackie assisted us every step of the way and made our vision come to life. We were (and still are) blown away about how Jackie transformed our backyard. Jackie is personable, easy to talk to, understanding, and I am happy to say I now call her my friend. If planning a wedding seems daunting and stressful, you should 100% hire Jackie to plan your event. She was truly the best money we spent!

Experiencia fantástica: My husband and I were married on 11/2/2019 in Raleigh, NC. Jackie came very highly recommended, and she truly went above and beyond planning our wedding. I couldn't imagine having my wedding day go more perfect than it did- and I owe that ALL to Jackie! She's thoughtful, professional, fun, and extremely organized. I highly recommend her to any bride to be and wouldn't have wanted to have had anyone else as my planner. Hire Jackie- it will be the best decision you make while planning your wedding. Huge bonus that even after your wedding is over she still checks in. She ROCKS!

Experiencia fantástica: If you're looking for a stress-free, reliable, authentic, fun and expericienced wedding planner, Jackie is your girl! She was not only very experienced but was such fun to work with! She will make your wedding dreams come too. Our vendors all loved her as well! The wedding vendor community is close and that positive relationship definitely pays off.

Experiencia fantástica: Our wedding was better than we could have ever imagined and we have Jackie to thank for that. When we started planning we really didn't know what we wanted our wedding to look like but Jackie was not concerned. She continually steered us towards vendors that she knew would be a great fit for us, guided us through tough decisions, and before we knew it we had created the perfect wedding. Throughout the entire process she did a great job keeping us on schedule, provided us with so many amazing ideas, and kept us relaxed so that we could enjoy our engagement. On our wedding day, Jackie was definitely in her element! Every detail was so meticulously planned that everything ran perfectly smooth. We were completely stress free, which made it the best day of our lives. From start to finish, Jackie was beyond wonderful; we couldn't have asked for a better planner! We would HIGHLY recommend her! Thanks Jackie!

Experiencia fantástica: My husband and I were talking about our daughter’s wedding last night. He was reminiscing about the wedding day and the euphoric moment when he realized it was all going to be perfect and he could just relax and enjoy. I’ll be honest, I knew all along. And it was because of our incredible wedding planner, Jackie. Don’t get me wrong, we had obstacles. And challenges. But Jackie kept us moving through the planning. When we got a little lax with our responsibilities, she gently prodded us along. She was fun and enthusiastic and I miss our coffee meetings! My advice to you is get Jackie on your team. You’ll be as relaxed and happy I was on the big day.

Experiencia fantástica: Jackie was honestly THE BEST EVER! I had no idea what I was doing and did not grow up "planning a wedding" either. I work A LOT and did not really want to deal with a lot of this. She was a referral from a co worker and we hit it off right when we met. She made my dreams a reality and stayed within our budget and even saved some money! The day was flawless and my family and in laws adored her. She took care of everything and is very detailed! I would highly recomend her to anyone. LOVE, LOVE LOVE HER! :)

Experiencia fantástica: I researched tons of planners in the NC/SC area. We had a very unique request from the beginning. My venue had a wedding coordinator that really didn't want to work with planners, but they didn't exactly offer the services and support I would need through the entire planning process. I came to Jackie with a crazy proposal, and she created something very unique for my needs. She was there with me through the entire planning process, and she would give me advice and direction on things that were even outside of our agreed services. She has a beautiful vision and eye for design to fit your venue perfectly!!! My guests raved about how everything looked and we can thank Jackie for that!! She would speak on my behalf in meetings with the venue, when I didn't always feel comfortable enough to speak up. Honestly, she is the total package. Jackie goes over and beyond to gain your trust and make you worry free on one of the biggest days of your life!! I went into my wedding day very calm and carefree because I knew Jackie was there covering everything I needed/wanted and more!!! Everyone says you want a planner by your side, trust me, you want JACKIE by your side. We loved her so much, I have already referred another friend who is working with her too!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I am so incredibly happy and fortunate to have had Jackie as our wedding planner – we HIGHLY recommend her to any bride/couple. We recently got married on 5/25/19 over Memorial Day weekend. Jackie was initially recommended to us among a list of other recommended wedding planners from our venue – and after speaking with several of the potential wedding planners, we ultimately chose Jackie for a number of reasons 1) she was a great listener and answered our questions/concerns directly 2) ALWAYS had a solution for any problem or issue based on her past experiences 3) she was incredibly personable and funny. Throughout the wedding planning process, she consistently proved out all the reasons why we hired her and more, including being organized, sharp and thoughtful. One thing that I was always impressed with was how she has an ability to take into account everyone’s countless opinions (bride, groom, family, vendors, etc.), provided multiple options to an issue and then finally recommend a real solution where everyone was happy. There was never a problem she couldn’t solve. We had one specific last minute emergency that came up a couple months before the wedding – she immediately jumped in, took control of the situation and alleviated almost all concerns we had. We couldn’t be happier about having Jackie as our wedding planner - you will truly be in safe hands with Jackie!

Experiencia fantástica: Our experience with Jackie was incredible! As a bride, it is a bit scary to begin the wedding planning process, but Jackie brought an energy and level of expertise that made me feel so confident that we wouldn't miss a detail. It was easy to trust her judgement and know that she would ensure our wedding day was flawless. (And it was!!) Jackie went above the call of duty from day one, it honestly felt as though she treated our wedding as if it was her own. She was more than a wedding planner to us- she became a friend. Truly could not have had the wedding of our dreams without her! If you want to best possible wedding experience: run, do not walk, to Jackie!!

Experiencia fantástica: Hiring Jackie as your wedding planner is the best investment you’ll make. We got married at the William Aiken House in Charleston, SC. and Jackie was there every step of the way, even when Hurricane Florence forced us to postpone our first date. She seamlessly re-planned a second wedding 2.5 months later that my family & friends still rave about. Not many wedding planners could’ve done what she did. There are so many options out there, but few have the talent that Jackie has. She’s an experienced planner that knows what it takes to create a special event. She was recommended to us by the Ocean Course in Kiawah and we feel so lucky to have met her. She knows how to execute a couple’s vision beautifully. Whether you’re doing a local wedding or a destination wedding, Jackie will keep you on task and on time. We never felt stressed about the details or needed to check on a vendor because Jackie handled all the logistics so we could focus on the fun stuff. During such an important time in your life, do yourself a favor and hire an experienced planner like Jackie. She's the best at what she does!

Experiencia fantástica: If you are looking to have the best night of your life, actually enjoy every minute of the planning process... and welcome a new member to your family then Jackie is the planner for you. We worked with Jackie for over 18months to plan our perfect day. Her many years in the wedding industry has allowed her to build incredible relationships with vendors and venues. We had an all star vendor team, because of Jackie. She knew who we would work best with, but also allowed us the freedom of decision making. Jackie is always prompt in response, and even though she has many brides. You will feel like number one! Jackie Fo is the best! I promise you will not regret booking her to be your “ team captain”

Experiencia fantástica: My husband and I have worked with a lot of vendors and Jackie is definitely one of our favorites. Her personality is the best, she makes you laugh and feel comfortable through out the day. She has everything under control and I super helpful. Would definitely love to work with her again! Don’t think twice about hiring her, she will make your dream wedding come true :D

Experiencia fantástica: Jackie was an exceptional month of planner for Ryan and I's wedding. My goal in hiring someone was to take any stress off of us and our families during our wedding weekend and hiring Jackie was the best money we spent! She was SO easy to work with, had excellent recommendations on vendors and I knew I could trust her with anything. She shoots you straight during the process and kept our minds at ease throughout our wedding weekend. She even put together our rehearsal dinner floral arrangements and set everything up! Jackie went above and beyond to make us comfortable and enjoy the biggest weekend of our lives. Thank you Jackie for being so amazing!

Experiencia fantástica: We would do it again tomorrow! It was a joy to plan the wedding with Jackie Fogartie. As the mother of the bride I can say that the best money we spent was hiring Jackie. From our first meeting her enthusiasm and love of her job was clear. Her attention to detail allowed us to relax knowing we were in great hands. We never felt rushed or stressed making decisions because she timed out all the big decisions throughout the year based on our schedules. She has great relationships with so many vendors in the industry which is critical in creating a group of vendors that works as a team to make your event a success. She not only helped us bring our vision to reality but made it even better than we imagined, all along listening to our priorities and managing all the moving parts. We were able to enjoy every minute of the wedding day knowing she was managing all the details and our guests loved it too. Last minute changes were handled beautifully with no fuss. This is not an easy job but she is a natural at this and she makes it look easy. She became a friend over this last year, she is very fun and funny and I will miss our phone conversations, emails and texts. Thanks Jackie!

Experiencia fantástica: Could not have done it without Jackie Fogartie and Sasha Thumann! They were a complete joy to work with and made our wedding day entirely stress-free. All we did was show up and have the best day of our lives! Anything we asked they had an answer, and even answers to things we didn't even consider! From our first conversation, I knew Jackie was the one - her personality makes the whole process that much more fun. And Sasha was a dream to work with as well! I highly recommend Jackie Fogartie and her team if you need any assistance with wedding planning and coordinating everything for your big day. And I promise you, you do.

Experiencia fantástica: Jackie Fogartie did an amazing job as the planner for my wedding! I am so grateful for the hard work, dedication, and enthusiasm she poured into my big day. I was able to FULLY enjoy every part of my wedding day because I knew she was on top of everything and there was nothing to worry about! She made sure to take note of all of the details that were important to us, as well as our families, and executed them perfectly! I wouldn't change a thing about my wedding day, or the whole process, and a big part of this is because Jackie truly knows what she is doing as a wedding planner! She was born to do this, and her personality makes the process extra fun! Every bride should hire Jackie!!

Experiencia fantástica: Great event planner. Best money spent to make the ceremony & reception the wedding of our daughter's dream. Jackie is organized, detailed, pleasant & professional. A wonderful experience!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Stop your searching and just book Jackie. Jackie (and her assistant Caroline) were immensely helpful every step of the way, and she will be the calm, knowledgeable friend you need to talk to when figuring out your wedding plans. Not sure where to start, or what half of these wedding terms mean? No problem - she helped me translate my style into a gorgeous wedding palette and walked me through all the wedding options so I could decide what did and didn’t work for us. She even helped me determine was DIY decor was doable and what wasn’t and everyone was so happy with the results. Nervous about planning long distance? Jackie not only coordinated everything to work around my limited in person schedule (San Francisco and Charlotte are pretty far apart) but also kept track of all the little decor and registries complexities planning across the country. Worried if something goes wrong? Two months out from the ceremony my caterer closed up shop and my cat had a heart attack - but Jackie kept the ship running smoothly. She not only adjusted my schedule for the unexpected (my kitty turned out okay), but found me a new caterer that replicated my tasting menu down to the recipe! Wondering how you’re going to get this all done? With Jackie you don’t have to worry about it - she’s a pro through and through and will put you and your family and at ease right away. As my mom said through the whole planning process - Jackie’s worth every last cent and then some.

Experiencia fantástica: Where to even begin?! Jackie was and is beyond amazing! I honestly can't picture our wedding without her. She was a monumental part from start to finish. Jackie came highly recommended and from my first conversation with her I knew she would be great planner to partner with. I had no doubts beforehand and looking back now she handled every logistical detail leading up to the big day as well as the wedding day. I live in Texas and initially was apprehensive about planning from afar. Jackie communicated with both my mom and I so well and eased all my "long distance" nerves. She was always responsive and checked in routinely. Anytime I came back to Charlotte, she made sure to meet up and go over everything that was done and discuss what needed to be done. I had the pleasure to work with Jackie for nearly a year in a half and in that time I realized she was more than a planner to a bride and her mom. She was an individual that cared for her clients beyond the event. Both my mom and I developed a personal relationship with Jackie and for that we are so grateful. For anyone planning a wedding, there is no price tag to big for making your wedding day enjoyable and stress free. Having a planner was without a doubt our best investment during this entire process. Jackie was an integral piece throughout this entire experience and she made our wedding day an event my family and I will forever remember! Jackie, thank you so much for all your help! Any bride would be lucky to work with you and with no doubt in great hands!

Experiencia fantástica: There are truly no words for how wonderful Jackie was during our wedding planning. Even from day one, her confidence and drive to get things done was apparent and I knew she was the one for us. It is difficult dealing with me and my now husband some days and keeping us on track but she did it seamlessly and with always so much positivity and encouragement. In months leading up to the wedding, if I ever had a question or concern she had an immediate answer and always was on top of her game. We would have been LOST without her. 5 stars is not enough to express her quality of service, especially with our venue and the coordination it took to get it all worked out (it was at the Ritz and it was a flip.. ). She was there for me through every step of the way and even came with me to my final dress fitting to help me with 11.. yes 11 bustles and she did it perfectly the day of ( I know my mom thanks her). Let's just say she's the one you want by your side on your wedding day besides your husband or wife :)

Experiencia fantástica: My wife and I were encouraged to hire a wedding planner, and we're so glad that we did. Jackie came highly recommended from our wedding venue Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden and our DJ at Split Second Sound. After one conversation with Jackie on the phone we knew that her confidence and experience would help calm our nerves and work out all of the wedding details. Jackie helped focus us on the details we were uncertain of and put together an easy to follow day of timeline that helped bring us calm right before the wedding. The weekend of the wedding Jackie worked with the pastor to make sure that everything would go smoothly. Thanks to Jackie and her assistant my wife and I were able to relax and enjoy the entire evening. If you're looking for a wedding planner hire Jackie Fogartie!
