Once Upon A Time Events

As a colleague of Once Upon a Time events, I can honestly say that it is always a pleasure working with Jessica and Cassie. They are creative, kind, and super organized. They have this amazing ability to transform a space that I’ve worked at hundreds of times into a new and fresh locale. I am ALWAYS impressed with the relationships that are forged with their clients. Taking the time time to understand their needs, wants and desires truly makes for a remarkable event AND over satisfied client.
Every detail is addressed thoroughly and properly. From chic lounge rentals to collaborating with the best in the business, these gals bring a feeling of big city luxury to our northern Nevada surrounding. Its more than flowers or place settings or finding the right DJ– they thoughtfully plan and orchestrate some of the best weddings and events that I have ever had the honor of being part of!
Keep up the fantastic work ladies!

I have a business here in town and I do work with Jessica at once upon a time events often. The weddings I have attended are always well received. People are blown away and it all flows flawlessly. I would recommend this company to anyone getting married so that they will have a beautiful and unforgettable event tailored to their needs. I wish I knew of once upon a time events when I got married. Hey maybe at my next vow renewal. :) these ladies rock!!!

Right when I met Jessica for the free consultation, I immediately liked her. She was professional, kind, personable and made you feel comfortable about the whole wedding plannning process. Jessica is very organized, detailed oriented and knowledgeable about everything wedding that she made the whole wedding planning thing seem easy! My fiancé and I were so impressed after the initial consultation and knew we had to have her as our planner.
Right after we booked OUATE, my fiancé and I had a meeting with Jessica and basically told her everything we wanted, what we didn’t want and what we dreamed of having but didn’t think we could afford. She also had us fill out a questionnaire to get a sense of our style, get to know us and get an idea of what we envision for our dream wedding. After reviewing everything we gave her, she created a design board with everthing we had talked about. I loved how we got to go thourgh and point out what we liked and what we didn’t like. This gave us a great sense of what our wedding was going to look like. Since I had a very hard time picking a theme and staying with that direction, this really helped me get on track and focus on one thing at a time. This also really helped me stop stressing and feeling overwhelmed and let me enjoy the wedding planning process.
As a bride, I knew I wanted to be involved in the fun stuff but not the boring, budget related stuff. Jessica was amazing at handling all the stuff I didn’t want to do or did not know how to do. We gave her our total budget and she planned around that very well and helped us stay on track. She also did all of the orders (which were a ton since we had our wedding at private estate and had to bring everything in) and delt with the most of our vendors. She has a great working relationship with a ton of wedding vendors in Reno that she was able to get things done and get them done fast! And she had wonderful recommendations for our wedding vendors. We loved them all!
During the whole wedding planning process Jessica and her sister, Cassie kept us on track and made sure we were getting things done when they needed to be done. I loved how they took all of my ideas and wishes and made them happen without any questions. The whole time, they were professional but so nice and fun to work with! It made wedding planning a lot of fun!
The day of the wedding, I had absolutley nothing to worry about. I sat in the house and got ready while Jessica, Cassie and her team set everything up and dealt with all the vendors. The wedding was not too big but the whole production of it was a lot! We had a ton of flowers, a fire pit, a dessert bar, photo booth, a lounge and a ton of details such a signage and personalized items. Jesssica and her team were so organized and executed everything PERFECTLY! It was above and beyond anything I had even imagined. They took my vision to the next level and made it better than I could had ever wished for. Jessica and Cassie kept the wedding on track the whole night and everything went off witthout a hitch. My husband and I nor our wedding party or family had to lift a finger, it was amazing! We got to spend our time enjoying ourselves while OUATE delt with everything else.
Jessica, Cassie and the entire OUATE team are amazing! They made planning our wedding an absolute joy and I would HIGHLY recommend them for wedding and party planning. If I plan another event you can be sure I will be booking Jessica and her team to help
