Thoughtfully Curated, Gracefully Executed

We believe planning is both an art and a responsibility. Whether designing an entire wedding weekend or styling a private dinner, we approach every event with warmth, intention, and thoughtful restraint.

We start by listening—so every detail reflects your story. From material selections to vendor collaborations, every decision is made with care and clarity.

No templates. No theatrics. Just timeless design, quiet confidence, and a planning experience that feels as considered as the celebration itself.

Because true beauty isn’t loud—it’s layered, lasting, and always personal.

  • “Jess helped us plan our wedding and we were SO thankful we had her. During the planning process, Jess respected our budget, was always responsive, and stepped in with a plan during snafus. In the end, her expertise helped us bring the vision to life—but better and more beautiful than we imagined. I had so much peace on my wedding day knowing Jess had our back. 10/10 recommend!”

    She’s the best wedding and event planner in Nashville for sure, she has become my go to planner for any event I have!”

    — DYLAN MURPHY

  • “I worked with Jess McKinney Events to plan a birthday dinner for 36 people last June in Nashville, and she was absolutely incredible. I came to Jess with so many ideas — the mood I wanted to create, how I wanted the space to feel, and all kinds of visual inspiration. She not only listened, she brought it all to life in the most beautiful, thoughtful way.

    When I walked into the space and saw the tablescape, the florals, and every single detail I had imagined actually there in front of me, I had tears in my eyes. It was stunning. Jess has an unbelievable eye for detail and pours so much care into everything she does.

    She’s also just so lovely to work with — incredibly kind, organized, and communicative. She made the planning process easy and enjoyable, and I truly felt supported every step of the way. I’d recommend her ten times over.”

    — GRADI ELLIS

  • “Jess threw the book launch party of my dreams! Every detail felt so personal and perfect—I wanted to relive it over and over again.”

    - MEGHAN ASBURY

  • “After two challenging experiences with wedding planners, my now-wife and I were feeling frustrated and discouraged.

    Thankfully, we found Jess—who was exactly the breath of fresh air we hoped for. Throughout the entire process, she was intentional, creative, and above all—kind and professional. On our wedding day, she and her team were steady and unfazed by any hiccup. They truly went above and beyond to ensure we had the best day.

    It’s safe to say our wedding wouldn’t have been such a smooth (and beautiful!) event if we didn’t have Jess behind it. Cannot recommend her enough!”

    - SAM MILLER
