Jennifer Ashford, Owner and Certified Wedding Planner

If you’re planning a wedding in Austin, Texas, you’ve come to the right place! Austin is a top destination wedding location in the United States and engaged couples from all over come here to get married!

I’m Jen Ashford and I feel strongly that you should actually get to experience and ENJOY your wedding day.  That doesn’t include worrying about which vendors have arrived, whether or not you're on time or who's supposed to be where.  I will do that for you while you focus on getting married!  Nothing makes me happier than worry-free couples having a blast on their wedding day!  I'm often asked what style of wedding I specialize in.  My only answer is, "all of them."  Weddings can be big or small, any and every color of the rainbow, modern, classic, rustic, whimsical or even off-the wall!  Every couple is unique and has their own ideas!  I'm here to make it happen! My focus is giving you stress-relief and peace to enjoy your wedding planning process.

I have an undergraduate degree and an MBA, so I enjoy both the design and planning and organization sides of the business.  I have earned the designation of CWP, Certified Wedding Planner, through AACWP.  In the organization, I have served as an instructor, facilitator for the AACWP training course, mentor and Board of Directors as Education Chair.  I am a founding member of the Associated Wedding Planners of Austin, served on the Board of Directors as Vice President, President, Immediate Past President and Membership Chair.
