Meet The Planner: Celebrate Your Love with JZ Events Founder Jennifer Zabinski

Jennifer Zabinski is one of the most respected event planners in the wedding and event space industry. Her peers, clients, and celebrities acknowledge her work. I was delighted to meet Jennifer at the Reem Acra show. Darcy Miller said, “You must meet my friend Jennifer Zabinski.” I was already a fan of her work, so meeting her in person was delightful.

Zabinski runs a boutique event planning company that makes herself available to the sort of clients that appreciate her skills, expertise, and esthetics. Zabinski founded and has been successfully operating JZ Events, a premier wedding and event planning, and production business, for nearly 20 years. 

We asked Jennifer a few questions that would help you understand why she is one of our recommended vendors:

Give some tips couples should consider when looking for vendors.

  • Ensure you are comfortable around the people you are booking, for example, photographers. This person will be with you during some of the most intimate moments, so it is essential to ensure compatibility.
  • Review the order and confirm event details to ensure that all runs smoothly within the days leading up to an event.
  • Contract vendors that match your ideas and aesthetics. They must work with you to create the vision you had in mind. 
  • Dare to be different. You can use different vendors than other couples, but do your research in advance. 

So there you have it, just a teaser of what makes her the expert she is and worth booking an appointment to help you plan your spectacular soiree.
