I’m Jenny — owner, lead planner, and the beating heart behind Stargazed Weddings and Events. At my core, I’m someone who believes that beauty and meaning deserve equal space — in weddings, in relationships, and in the way we move through the world.
I discovered a love for event planning through my love of music. My mother instilled in me a deep appreciation for the arts, surrounding me with classical music throughout my childhood. After studying music at Penn State, I followed my passion for music into the nonprofit world and spent ten years producing fundraising events. It was during my time with the Aspen Music Festival and School that I discovered a new passion for Wedding Planning, inspired by connections with other creative talents in the area.
As a star-gazer, a Cancer, and an Enneagram 2, my empathetic nature ensures that your wedding or event reflects you in a way that feels both creative and authentic.
In the same way we build an experience unique to you, we strive to create a one-of-a-kind visual experience too. We're not interested in replicating what we see on Pinterest. We collaborate with you and your vendors to create something completely new and exciting, for a totally WOW-worthy experience.
We know you have high standards, and after a decade of living and working in Aspen, we can't help but have the highest standards too!
We select the most experienced, creative, and talented vendors to execute your vision. Our attention to detail and our extensive experience working in Aspen and Vail venues make us experts in our field. Furthermore, we produce a limited number of weddings each year to guarantee plenty of one-on-one time with our clients. .
Our magic lies in bringing together the right combination of vendors and creating the ideal conditions for them to do their absolute best work. You won't hear many planners asking vendors "How can I make your job easier?" but it's important to us that our vendor partners have all the resources they need to succeed.
When we design and plan your wedding or event, we're not thinking about getting it published in Vogue (unless that's something you want!) or how it will look on Instagram. We our 100% focused on executing YOUR vision, within your stated budget. Our unwavering commitment sincere human connection ensures that you feel truly seen and understood.
We live and work in the mountains year round, making us experts at all things Aspen. We’ve also had the pleasure of producing weddings at your venue before, so we're familiar with the tricks and pitfalls!
There are very few “shoulds” at Stargazed Weddings! We say honor tradition when it feels right, and throw out the rest of the expectations! You and your partner can invent your own traditions! We'll support you in creating a day that feels authentic to you.
We nerd out on the logistics. When it comes to complex weddings, and especially tented weddings, logistics and load-ins are puzzles we can’t wait to solve!
Whether I'm sketching with charcoals, admiring the local view of Mt. Sopris, or styling flatlays to capture a couple's gorgeous details, I appreciate beauty wherever I find it.
Silly comedies like Anchorman, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, The Detroiters, What We Do in the Shadows. ...and singing musical theater at the top of my lungs.
Easy. My niece and nephew who live in D.C.
IPA all dayyy! Or a mezcal cocktail. Recently, I've started exploring NA spirits and beers. (We love mocktails and NA options at weddings!) As for food, just about anything my mom cooks.
Do I have to pick just one? First, design: creating an environment that reflects a couple's style with sophistication, texture, color, and great details — something I couldn't do without Number Two... Getting to know my couples and what makes them unique.

The first dance. I rarely cry during vows, but I've been known to sob my way through a first dance. What can I say? Music and lyrics move me.

a stargazed groom once said during his toast...
"It's not about the journey, nor is it about the destination; it's about who you Journey with."
