Welcome to Wedding Whisperer!

Now that you’re engaged, you’re embarking on a very exciting chapter of your life. So first off, congratu-freakin-lations! I hope that you’ve truly let yourself soak it in. Secondly, welcome! Wedding Whisperer is a boutique wedding planning company based in Halifax, Nova Scotia dedicated to bringing the fun back into wedding planning. It’s all based on the genuine belief of wedding planner Jess Murray that couples can, and should, enjoy this incredible time in life. And that with a little bit of love, laughter, and levity, together we can celebrate your marriage in the way it’s truly meant to be.

Introducing Wedding Whispering

When you choose Wedding Whisperer, you’re saying yes to all of the knowledgeable expertise and offerings that come with having a full-service wedding planner.

But you’re also saying ‘‘I do’’ to putting your precious time toward the most precious parts of your wedding planning. Because honestly, dedicating months and months of your life to to-do lists, checklists, spreadsheets, and timelines is not fun! Instead, Wedding Whisperer is about making the planning experience as memorable as the wedding day.

How, you ask? By taking things one phase at a time with your wedding planning partner in crime.

Wedding Whispering Phases

The Big Picture

We start off by becoming the best of friends! During this time, we discover what you truly want for your wedding. Not what you think you should want, or what others want, but what matters most to you as a couple. This lays a strong foundation for a smooth ride, filled with confidence in your planning decisions and trust that I get you—and I've got you.

The Dream Team

Having an incredible wedding experience takes not just a village, but the right village. During this phase, we review all of your venues and vendors, and pick the right people for you based on the picture of your perfect day, your priorities, your personality, and your price point. I want you to be Whitney-Houston-high-note excited about your wedding partners, so you get a chance to connect through vendor visits, menu and cake tastings, and stopping to smell the flowers (literally).

Design & Décor

Oooh, this is a super fun phase! Together we pour ourselves a cup of coffee or a glass of wine (pick your poison) and pull all of your inspiration into Pinterest perfection. Then, with a crystal-clear, cohesive design that has you full-on happy dancing, we dig into turning your digital dreams into reality. Think stationery selection, sample table settings, shopping trips for special pieces, and more.

The Experience

This is one of the most important pieces of the entire puzzle. This phase is all about ensuring delight at every moment of your day—for you and your guests. Whether it's a warm welcome for travellers, the perfect playlist for every point of the day, or must-have memory-making moments, together we will map out maximum fun.

Logistics

I freakin’ love logistics (nerdy, but true). They are what turn a good wedding into a seamless celebration where all you have to do is whoop it up. During this phase, we iron out the details that you’ve been thinking of, those that would eventually come to mind, and those that you would have never even thought about. This phase is all about breathing a sigh of relief knowing that you have every i dotted and every t crossed.

The Wedding Weekend

I’ll make sure that every detail is attended to including timing, logistics, vendor relations, and more. I'll be your point person for anything that comes your way. Your go-to gal for the unplanned, unexpected, or unwelcome. Your problem solver to handle any and all issues that arise. And most importantly, I'll be your protector of fun. At the end of this phase, you'll be married—and have enjoyed every second of it!

But wait, there’s more!

Wedding planning isn’t always easy and it’s not always fun. There I said it! The fact is, there are a lot of details and decisions, and those inevitably bring out a lot of emotions. But what makes it easier, and much more enjoyable, is having someone to support you and give you what you need—when and how you need it.

Personalized Packages & Pricing

In order to give my clients the love and attention that they deserve, Wedding Whisperer takes on a limited number of clients at a time.

Whether you are starting from scratch, or have gotten the ball rolling but want to feel supported as you continue, Wedding Whisperer breathes a sigh of relief into your wedding planning. All packages are personalized based on the size and scale of your wedding, where you are in the planning process, and additional costs of service.

Wedding Whispering starts at $5,000.

Best decision we made :)

Where do i even begin. Hiring Jess was the best decision i could’ve made in my wedding planning process. My husband and I currently live out west. Trying to navigate our wedding plans from across the country during a pandemic was certainly challenging. Jess provided us with so much guidance and positivity. Her calm, cheerful nature and ability to push through any and all obstacles in front of her is something i admire. She went over and beyond to make sure our day was all we could’ve dreamt and more. Professional, efficient and full of heart. 5/5 i would recommend Jess.

Jess is the best!

Jess was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! She was flexible and accommodating to our ever changing schedule. Jess truly cares about her clients and their special day - but also about the relationship she builds with them. We unfortunately had to cancel our planned wedding due to covid but Jess was totally great and understanding - I actually cried when we said we wouldn't be able to come and meet her in person! (We are from out of province). Even after canceling, Jess kept in touch to make sure our new plans were working out and offered assistance from afar along the way. We wish we could've brought her to be there Ontario with us!
If you're lucky enough to live in N.S. or close area I would highly recommend working with Jess!

Owner and Principal Planner

I’m Jess! An event planner with over 10 years of experience planning events big and small. An East Coast gal who not only enjoys a good party—especially if it ends on a dance floor—but loves throwing them. A ball of energy that thrives on turning the mundane into something memorable. A wedding whisperer who believes that anything is possible with a positive outlook, a keen eye for detail, and a smile.

The most important thing to know about me is that supporting the people around me brings me the most joy. Whether it’s helping them out, cheering them on, or giving them TLC, seeing stress turn into smiles lights me up. And it’s what Wedding Whispering is all about.

Together, we will not only plan one kick-ass wedding that your guests will love, and you will actually get to enjoy, but side by side we will ride the rollercoaster of wedding planning. Laughing with delight along the way!
