Emily Sent on 01/18/2023AMAZING life savers!
We hired UBD for wedding planning for our large 250+ person wedding! Julianne was fabulous to work with!! Wow. She managed everything so nicely. She was my go to for EVERYTHING. Julianne handled communicating with all our vendors making sure everyone knew what time and where they were needed. The morning of she came and checked on me & my bridesmaids as well as my husband and his groomsmen. Our transportation was late due to traffic. Julianne was on the ball making calls with the trolley then calling the church to update them about us being late. I never worried once, my bridesmaid later said to me "wow you handled that so well." It was because I didn't have to worry or stress over getting in contact with the trolley or the church. Julianne set everything up at the venue exactly like we talked about. She moved things from the cocktail hour to where the reception was held. She gathered all my bridesmaids bouquets that we repurposed as centerpieces. Julianne also refilled the plated the dessert bar for us so family wouldn't have to. The next day she helped me figure out who had my veil and purse haha! She knew where everything was. I tell all my engaged friends to get a planner!!! I already referred UBD to some local friends. Having them allowed myself, bridesmaids, and our families to relax and enjoy the day. -

Phenomenal Planner. Phenomenal Person.
Could we have gotten married without Jenna’s help? Yes. Could we have planned and executed a beautiful wedding that surpassed not only our expectations, but our wildest dreams? Absolutely NOT. We live in Pittsburgh, but got married in Lancaster County, so hiring a planner made the most sense to us due to the distance and our schedules. In addition to recommending almost our entire vendor team, she was able to take our (very) rough vision for the day and make it a reality. We deeply appreciated her responsiveness, professionalism, honest feedback and advice. Not only is she great at what she does, she’s a stellar person who we genuinely enjoyed working with and getting to know. By the time our wedding rolled around, the only thing we had to worry about was getting married - we knew Jenna would handle the rest. We cannot recommend her highly enough! -

We hired Jenna as a day of coordinator for our wedding and we could not be happier with her service. She went above & beyond, helping us begin planning as far as a month out! She was extremely organized & provided awesome recommendations and advice. We could not have done it without her!! -

My wife Lauren and I used Unique By Design for our wedding in June of 2022, and we could not have been any happier with Jenna's attention to detail, competence, promptness, and professionalism.
When we met with Jenna during the planning process she put our minds at ease by explaining exactly how things would unfold, and she impressed us as being very confident and calm.
When the day of the wedding arrived Jenna made sure that everything unfolded as exactly as she had forecasted, and she kept everyone and everything on schedule, which sounds much easier than it was.
Many aspects of our wedding were as successful as they were thanks to Jenna, and we would highly recommend her to anyone just beginning the process of planning their own big day. -

The best in the business!
Jenna was such an integral part to our Wedding Day. Our church ceremony was about an hour away, so we relied on her expertise to coordinate with our vendors for set up of the reception venue. We had our cocktail hour outside and reception inside, and the transition between the two events was seamless. Unique by Design made our reception venue look like an absolute dream, I highly recommend using this company for your wedding. -

Jenna is exactly the kind of person you want on your team as you are planning a wedding! She is absolutely brilliant at what she does and she is a true blessing to us. We hired her for the full wedding planning package and we are so grateful we did! My biggest recommendation is to not only hire Jenna but to hire her early in the process. Because we did this, we were able to utilize her expertise to help us to choose vendors that not only fit our vision but also our budget! She is absolutely worth every single penny, as I felt confident we made up for the cost in the conscious decisions she helped us make in the planning process and you are paying for the experience and piece of mind of having UBD on your side. On the day of our wedding, Jenna and Julianne were absolutely incredible. Since we had been working together for over a year, Jenna knew exactly what needed to be done and she and her team executed it beautifully leaving me and my now husband to enjoy the day, stress free. -

Jenna was so instrumental in helping me feel at ease during the final planning stages of our wedding and was also key in making everything run so smoothly on the day of. I am so happy I had her expertise to run through the list of everything that needed to be done leading up to the last 3 months - I would have surely forgot something. And it was amazing having her take over communication between the vendors - such a stress reliever!! Our day was absolutely beautiful and perfect in every way and we cannot thank Jenna enough!!! -

Best day ever
Unique by Design was so great and easy to work with! Immediately when I met Jenna she made my husband (then fiancé) and I feel like we were part of her Unique by Design family. Jenna is so kind hearted and it definitely translates into her exceptional services! As an indecisive bride, I gave her my colors and designs I have seen and liked; and she just ran with it! She made our day go smoothly with all her planning, scheduling and tips. She was also so responsive to questions I had about certain purchases or decisions along the way! She made my wedding to be more than I ever could have dreamed up myself! Besides just Jenna, Julianne assisted on our wedding day and she was also nothing sort of amazing! I seriously can't thank Jenna and her team for all their help in making my day; THE BEST DAY EVER! I highly recommend Unique by Design for your special day or event - they are truly worth every penny! :) -

Jenna and Julianne are an incredible team that made my wedding the perfect day that it was! We hired them for day of coordination which is really month of coordination. Jenna made sure to get down all of our details and truly understand our vision for the big day. She helped out with my last minute vendor changes and rolled with all of the changes we had to make because of COVID. We honestly wish we had hired Unique by Design for our entire wedding planning process. Julianne was more of our point of contact during the event itself. She was there to make sure I was bustled correctly and to escort my husband and I through the different events on the day of. She even carries a little fanny pack with all the necessities you will without a doubt forget on the big day. I wish I could give these two more than five stars because they truly earned them! -

Jenna and her team at UBD coordinated our wedding that took place on 9/26/2020. Although we had over two years to plan our wedding, the process can be overwhelming and stressful, especially when working a full-time job. Jenna made every step of the process comforting and stress free!
I met Jenna a little over a year ago at Heritage Restored's Open House (the venue where our wedding took place). Although I was checking out other businesses that offered similar services, something just clicked that I had to have Jenna be the one to assist us through the wedding planning process. Jenna has a very fun, caring, and personable touch that leaves you feeling confident that she will exceed your expectations!
When planning a wedding, it's typically the first time for some, in which there's many things we don't even think to account for. I felt extremely confident knowing I didn't have to think of every little detail being as though Jenna would walk us through the entire process. Looking back, there were several times when close friends and relatives would ask how something would be handled or how we should go about doing certain things... My response without hesitation was always that "Jenna will go over that with us". In addition, Jenna and her team would ask us questions that left me thinking "I never would've even thought of that" multiple times.
During the year of our wedding, Jenna had to step back and tend to a very important and personal matter. When she informed us that she has since expanded her team and that someone else would be taking over the coordination of our wedding, I was upset at first (that I would not have Jenna there on our wedding day) but extremely confident that the services provided would be just as good. Even through this difficult time that Jenna was experiencing, she never failed to periodically check in to ensure her team was providing exceptional work.
During the weekend of our wedding, we had the pleasure of receiving coordination services from Julianne and Maddy. While most rehearsals are coordinated by the pastor, we did not have that luxury being as though we asked a close relative to marry us. This was one huge area where UBD was able to step in and flawlessly walk us through the rehearsal of the ceremony, leaving us feel reassured for the big day. Not only my husband and I, but our close family and wedding party commented several times on the service that was provided. Julianne and Maddy not only guided us through the day of events, but also brought our vision to life by ensuring we had everything we needed and by decorating our venue more beautifully than ever imagined.
To this day, we are still in awe thinking back and reliving our wedding day over and over again. I can confidently say that we would've been lost without the services of Jenna and her team at UBD! It's been an honor to work with Jenna and I am so thrilled to continue to watch her business grow!
Thank you so much, Jenna and Team! -

Jenna's team of Julianne and Maddie were absolutely wonderful to work with at my son's wedding. They were very professional and took care of everything so that the bride and parents could enjoy the events of the day. I don't know what we would have done without them. They were wonderful and it was money very well spent. I would highly recommend UBD! They are outstanding! -

We are so grateful to have had Jenna and her team’s assistance with designing and day of management for our November 2021 wedding. Jenna eased our stress and anxieties about the wedding throughout the process. Jenna was able to take a blank slate and come up with a stunning design for the space in one planning meeting and made design suggestions that we now can't imagine our wedding day without. On the day of, Julianne and Lydia and went above and beyond to make sure the day ran smoothly and that everything/everyone was taken care of. Julianne and Lydia executed Jenna’s design plans wonderfully. Our ceremony and reception space were more beautiful than we could have ever imagined! We truly had a perfect day and would recommend hiring Unique by Design for your wedding – they are SO worth the investment! -

I cannot say enough good things about Jenna and her team. Our wedding weekend was everything we had hoped for even though a few things did not go our way. Jenna took care of every tiny detail and gave me suggestions on changing things I had not even thought of and then loved even more than my original plan. She was very responsive leading up to the wedding and we were so relieved to have her run the show. We loved every second of our wedding and a lot of that was thanks to Jenna and her amazing team! -

We hired Jenna for our wedding in September of 2021. Even though we hired her as a 'day-of' coordinator, Jenna provided us with a great deal of support, recommendations, insight, and answers throughout the entire wedding process. Jenna was always there to answer any questions we had about logistics and planning and she was able to provide recommendations of other vendors and ways to structure our day. As the big day approached, Jenna played an even larger role in the planning process including creating our day-of timeline and seating arrangement, reaching out to all the vendors in the week leading up, and attending the walkthrough and rehearsal. During the walkthrough, we described to Jenna how we wanted our decorations and extras to be placed around the venue, and we had full confidence that Jenna and her team understood our vision and that we were in good hands - just one less thing to worry about during the wedding day! On our big day, Jenna assisted at the ceremony by greeting guests and making sure everything was set up properly while her team (Julianne and Alex) were setting all of our decorations and extras up at the reception. Everything at the ceremony and reception was placed exactly how we described and done beautifully. Julianne and Alex were there for us the entire night during the reception and were extremely attentive and supportive of whatever needs we had. At the end of the night, they helped load everything up in the cars which was another thing we did not have to worry about. Overall, Jenna and her team were extremely helpful in both planning our wedding and achieving our vision! -

Joey and I want to thank Jenna for all the time and effort into putting together our magical wedding. It was everything I ever dreamed it would be. When I first met Jenna I felt a huge connection and knew this would be a continuing friendship for us and know I wanted her help in coordinating our wedding. She had the best ideas and made me super comfortable in ever meeting we had together. I was less stressed during the build up to Joey and I’s wedding knowing she had everything under control. Joey and I found out we were expecting a sweet baby boy during this process and I had to move our wedding up to a sooner date. Well Jenna was going to enjoy her anniversary in Jamaica but she had Juliann “her right” manage our wedding and it turned out absolutely breathtaking and everything I ever imagined it would be and better. I highly recommend Unique by Design Wedding and Events. You will not be disappointed and the girls are both gems♥️ Thank you for everything Jenna and Juliann!! We love you xoxo -

There isn’t enough praise I could give to Jenna and her team. She is professional and kind and she will do her best to make sure your wedding is perfect! I was a summer 2020 bride that had to postpone due to the pandemic to summer of 2021. In a very stressful and uncertain time she remained calm and optimistic and I knew I was in good hands. She was always available to me from the day I hired her as my coordinator to even days after my wedding. She was there to run the rehearsal the day before the wedding and made everything seem so effortless! She took care of contacting and coordinating with all my vendors so I didn’t have to worry about a thing the day of. Her and her assistant were rockstars on my wedding day. They took all my decorations and Pinterest like visions and turned them into a reality and it was perfect! Her assistant even helped my sister in law bustle my complicated dress before introductions! If you are getting married at Bluestone Estate like me or any where else you need Jenna and her team there. I couldn’t have imagined our wedding going half as smooth without them! Love you Jenna and your team at UBD, you helped make our day one to remember! -
