Meet Your Planners
Jade
Owner, Lead Planner, & Designer
I am so excited you 're here and to plan with you! A little bit about me, and then I can't wait to learn more about you!
After an extensive time in radio promotions and assisting my own friends & family for years with their own personal weddings & events, I decided it was time to launch Joyful Events by Jade in 2018.
My planning style is laid-back, overly organized, and realistic. At the end of the day, I'm going to do what's best for you, and I'm going to help you achieve your dream vision. Wedding planning in particular is one of the most rewarding jobs I could have ever asked for , and I would be so thrilled to be apart of your big day , too.
When I'm not busy planning, you can catch me hopping around all of the incredible craft breweries this city has to offer with my husband, Jason, and waving my terrible towel at Steelers games.
I was born and raised in Pittsburgh and proudly bleed black and gold through & through.
Desiree
Adrieanna
My name is Adrieanna, Pittsburgh gal through and through. I am passionate about building relationships and connecting with others. I have always been THE planner in my professional and personal life. Seriously, ask any one of my friends. I found my niche in highschool and just never stopped being involved.
My planning style is strategic. I understand clients’ visions and bring meaningful events to life with ease. I am not afraid to step outside of the box or go beyond what might be considered “ normal. ”
When I am off duty you can find me at a country concert or at home playing with my pup, Mocha. A glass of Rośe knows how to bring a smile to my face along with all my very best friends.
I am so excited to get started on this journey with you.

WEDDING DAY MANAGEMENT
Taking the stigma out of "day-of" coordination, because in order to have a successful wedding day, we believe we should be there for you two months before your big day. Wedding Day Management begins three months out from your big date with building your timeline. A venue walkthrough is in order to finalize all your venue layout plans. Layout creation, managing your vendors, & rehearsal coordination are all included. We get those "I didn't think of that" moments out of the way with a finalization Zoom meeting. A nitty gritty final details questionnaire are all completed before we head into your rehearsal evening and big day. This package isn't just for weddings - let us tie together everything you've planned for your next big birthday bash or shower. We'll be there for you during the entirety of your event, too.
COORDINATION & DESIGN
Everything in our Wedding Day management package PLUS we dive into your event design together. Event Design begins with our intense questionnaire so we can get to know you and your style better. Within two weeks from completing your questionnaire, we send you a detailed proposal with everything you could've imaged to bring your wedding day or event to life. A quick chat to discuss any changes & lock in what you love, then we provide you with a digital mock-ups, a list of vendor recommendations and purchase links to fulfill your dream vision. We can begin designing right away, then Wedding Day Management will pick up about three months from your big day.
