Wedding Wednesday | Meet Jackie!

By August 14, 2019No Comments

Designing + coordinating the perfect wedding is nothing short of an art. Once we’re positive we’ve locked in our client’s vision, it’s game time. Sometimes coordinating a wedding is the most challenging part – we need to be attentive to detail, energetic, friendly, flexible and very quick on our feet. Let’s be real… things don’t always go according to plan. That’s where our team of wedding coordinators SHINE. We truly have the best of the best and these women are talented and amazing!

Last weekend’s beautiful wedding at Morris Inn at Notre Dame was Merry Me Coordinator Jackie’s first one solo since she joined Team Orange several months ago. And she knocked it out of the park! Scroll on for pretty pics from Lexi + Jordon’s shades of blush reception AND to learn a little more about our Jackie!

More About Jackie…
How long have you been with Merry Me: Not very long! However, I have admired the magic of Merry Me for four years prior to joining the team. Their events leave an indelible mark; one that’s not easy to forget!
What is your favorite thing about the job:  It’s absolutely love getting to really know our couples and their stories. It’s a privilege to be chosen as an events team and entrusted with making a vision come to life. As a coordinator, you have the opportunity to walk alongside a bride and groom and bear witness as they prepare for their lives together. This day is as important to us as it is to them and details matter.  Listening to and remembering important stories helps to spark creative ideas for thoughtful touches and details that will both surprise and make a lasting impression.
Married/Kids/Furbabies?: Not yet, but one day! My significant other, Tyler, and I have been together for almost four years. He’s in Arizona working right now and one day we hope to get a dog and name him “Miles.”
Favorite thing to do on day off:  Going on a spontaneous mini-adventure. There are so many neat nooks and crannies to explore in the small towns around greater Michiana.
What was the best concert you’ve ever been to?  Oh! The Decemberists at Milwaukee SummerFest in 2016. It was serendipity that they happened to be playing when Tyler and I were in town. They brought a massive paper cut out of a whale on stage to illustrate one of their songs. Very whimsical. I loved it. There also had giant pretzels for sale! What a great day.
If you could be an animal, what would you be?  Golden Retriever. Hands down. Fluffy. Loyal. Dependable. Sunny Disposition. Likes Naps and Treats.
What’s a pet peeve of yours?  I really dislike it when my socks get wet on the floor.
