Being from a small town, initially I did not think a wedding planner was a necessity. There are only a few venue options, one flower shop, and two caterers to choose from. How much help could a wedding planner be? Turns out -- more help than I ever could have imagined!
From the moment I hired Jen and Atmosphere, the stress just lifted. Not only because of Jen's enthusiastic and positive outlook on wedding planning, but because every detail was taken care of with the sincerity and personal touch you would have given yourself.
Being from small town Alberta and my husband from Chicago - we really wanted a wedding that would reflect both personalities as well as our different traditions. We wanted to have the "city-like" wedding in the comfort of my small town. With only two venue choice, I wanted something unique to set our wedding apart from the many held there prior. Jen too every idea and picture I had and worked her magic. From the classy table linens and beautiful centerpieces to the chandeliers hanging from the celing beams, Jen was able to transform my small town Rec Center into a beautiful and elegant ballroom.
We still get comments today from friends in town saying "it was the most beautiful wedding ever held in the Rec Center" and "we felt like we were in a fancy big city hotel ballroom" - it was exactly what we wanted to hear! Not only was the reception more beautiful than we ever could have asked for - but the day could not have happened without Jen and her team. From set up and tear down of decorations; water bottles, tissues and breath mints at the back of the church right before walking down the aisle; to dealing with vendor issues/payments the day of the wedding -- everything they did was so that you and your groom only have to worry about enjoying the best day of your life!
I cannot imagine how I ever would have made it through my wedding (or the year of planning) without Jen and I am so appreciative for everything she has done for us. And maybe the most important and amazing thing about having Atmosphere Wedding Planning be part of our day was that our parents were truly able to enjoy the little moments, the party, and the entire weekend as much as we were. It was what they deserved. Looking back -- the best money spent on the entire wedding -- WITHOUT a doubt!
2. Darci & Marc
Thank you sooo much for everything at the wedding, the whole day went perfectly and I never had to worry about anything! The decorations looked fantastic, I got a TON of compliments on how nice it all looked.
You were super helpful and it would not have gone as well as it did without your help and pre-wedding advice (i.e. vendor ideas and such).
I hope your day was not too stressful, Marc and I absolutely loved the day, you did a great job!

From the moment we met you (Jen), we knew we had found the right person for our day of coordination. With one of us being a designer and having such a high expectation for the way the details were handled, we had no problem handing over our wedding, "our baby," to you. We trusted you with everything so that we could relax and enjoy our day. It was the best decision we made during our wedding planning. You completely surpassed any expectations we had. If we were nervous or overjoyed you were there to share that moment with us. We are forever grateful to you for helping us make our day as beautiful as it was. Not only were you our wedding planner but you became our friend, making it so easy to come to you to ask for that hand. Thank you for knowing that the importance of our day was the marriage and not the other fluff that comes with it, and allowing us to enjoy every moment.

Jennifer Tavaroli and Atmosphere Wedding Planning are professional in every respect. Jennifer has taste, imagination and grace all of which is reflected in her work. I recommend her without reservation to any couple considering a wedding planner.
5. Taryn & Jason
Jen Tavaroli of Atmosphere is the one person I give full applaud to for helping make this our dream wedding. (aside from myself that is... heh) She did such a great job, and busted her arse to give us the day we worked so hard to plan.
I had had previous dealings with Jen (my MOH hired her as a full coordinator for her wedding) and the magic that she worked then definitely gave me the push to hire her for ours.
Despite the fact that we hired her for "Day-of", she went above and beyond the contract and was there every step of the way, eager to help wherever possible, and really showed us that she cared that our wedding turned out to be as perfect as we imagined it. In my opinion, everyone needs to hire Jen! During the last few weeks before the wedding, she was constantly trying to lighten my load, or to take things off my plate so that I had less to deal with, despite the fact that this was not part of our original contract.
I simply cannot rave enough about Jen, she was absolutely fantastic. She has become someone whom I consider a friend, she is THAT fabulous!

Atmosphere wedding planning and design was everything we needed to make sure that our day went off without a hitch. When trying to plan a wedding things can become very overwhelming and stressful. worrying about whether or not your decor is going to work out, seating plans are organized etc is not the best way to spend your final days prior to the wedding. When we hired atmosphere Wedding planning and Design we felt very comfortable with leaving these very important details in their capable hands. On our wedding day my husband and I were very happy and relieved to find that everything we had discussed with the planners was there, and exceeded our expectations. I would reccomend them to any bride and groom who want to make their wedding day perfect.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

"Hi Jen,
I was just reflecting on the Wedding season that
just past us by.
Your clients always seem to have an excited yet
relaxed feel to them when they visit us. It really
does show on their faces that they have someone
behind them making sure that their wedding is
being planned to the point of perfection! This
industry is one of the most competitive in the
world and when you have the opportunity to work
with professionals like yourself it is reassuring
that there will always be a consistent level of
service provided to these very special clients.
Over the past few years that Revolution has worked
closely with Atmosphere it has become apparent
that amongst the many companies there are in this
industry, there are only a few that have what it
takes to stand above the crowd. I wish every Bride
and Groom knew about you and had the chance to
work with Atmosphere!
To another successful Wedding season Jen, and I'm
sure many more to come; Congrats on where you've
made it so far!

"I am continually impressed with each wedding that we have seen Jen produce. Her ability to creatively think outside the box and pay attention to every detail is impeccable. She takes great pride in each event and the results are evident. It is always exciting to see what new concepts she will come up with for the décor and we are consistently wowed by her ability to combine a modern, urban style with classic elegance. From the supplier side, she is refreshing to work with and communicates well. We are looking forward to seeing what outstanding ideas she will come up with for 2010!"

Hi Jennifer, It was so great working with you during Laina & Greg's wedding! You two really brought the day from beautiful to breathtaking.
Jana & Kylie
Every girl dreams of her wedding day to be perfect, run smoothly, and look spectacular. My day consisted of all these aspects and more
thanks largely in part to Jennifer Tavaroli of Atmosphere Wedding Planning and Design. It was the BEST money my husband and I spent on
our entire wedding! Jennifer's meticulous attention to detail helped bring things together resulting in our dream wedding. Whether it
was decorating our wedding reception, coordinating our deliveries, or lending a friendly word of advice, Jen was there to make our day
virtually flawless. The best way to describe Jen is that she cares! She personally took the time to understand completely how I
envisioned my day, and went through every detail of the process with me. She spent countless hours with me, taking time to get to know
my husband and myself. Jen also saved us money (which I know my husband liked!) by negotiating with vendors. Also, she came up with
many different ideas and special little twists that made our day unique and memorable. Jennifer is extremely professional, her
relationships with vendors was outstanding and every single person that I dealt with during the planning had only positive things to say
about her. I recommend Jennifer Tavaroli to every single bride I meet.

Atmosphere Wedding Planning and Design is an absolute joy to work with. Jennifer's attention to detail, service minded focus, and friendly and easy-going nature make it seem easy for her to coordinate the most beautiful weddings. We photographed a wedding coordinated by Jennifer and it was a masterpiece in creativity. Her organizational and communication skills are simply impeccable, making it easy to work with her as a vendor. She was highly professional, at every turn keeping the vendors informed. We would be pleased to work with Jennifer again in the future!
Abigail & Joal
We had a vision of what our wedding day would look like and Atmosphere Wedding Planning and Design brought it to life. Imagine 116 people just in the entourage and so many details! But we felt so relaxed and had so much fun on our wedding day. Jen expertly orchestrated the whole event with so much professionalism, creativity, and grace. She was always focused and tirelessly attended to all of our needs. Perfect! Spectacular! Beautiful! Unique! Stunning! Wow! Entertaining! Elegant! Well-planned! Fun! Magical! These were just a few of the superlatives our guests have used to describe our wedding. And thanks to Jen for it! If we could do our wedding all over again, the one thing about which we are absolutely certain, with no compromises, is that we would still want Jen to be our Wedding Planner and Director. We feel very blessed to have had the privilege of working with her. She has certainly exceeded all of our expectations. Jen, you are a gem! Thank you! Thank you many, many times!
Christine & Michael
Michael and I were beyond pleased with our experience with Atmosphere Weddings. They were by far an integral part of making our wedding as great as it was. We had such an amazing day and it was made even better knowing that Atmosphere ‘had our backs’. We knew from the moment we met Jen that we loved her and that we could trust her with anything and everything wedding we threw out there. She really wanted to know everything about our wedding so that she could do her job to the best of her ability. I really feel she went above and beyond and was able to offer to us more than any other wedding planner/coordinator in Edmonton. She spent countless hours meeting with us, going to venues, hauling chairs (thanks Jen!) yes, even physical labor, this girls got it all!
The day went off without a hitch (that we knew of anyway ; ) and we truly couldn’t have done it with out her. It meant so much to know we could trust Atmosphere with all the logistics and really sit back and enjoy our wedding. It was definitely a long hard day for her and we appreciated her smiling face and everything Jen and her team did for us. Not only was she extremely organized and professional but she truly is a lovely person. I’ll miss closing down the Starbucks chatting about everything wedding and non-wedding related. We’re glad you could share in our love and help to make our wedding truly the happiest, most fun-filled day of our lives.
Thank you so much to Jen and Atmosphere Weddings for your hard work, your professionalism and your friendship. We’d recommend you to anyone in a heartbeat.
Jen & Chad
I would absolutely recommend Atmosphere Wedding Planning and Design. Jennifer and her team were able to understand my vision and take it to the next level resulting in our reception being even more amazing than I could have imagined. No detail was overlooked and Jennifer kept me on track every step of the way; I never once worried about our event because I felt confident in my 'wedding coach'.
Cindy & Tony
Thank-you so much for helping to make our day a success! The event went off without a hitch (well at least for us!). After the wedding I found out from one of the vendors that the hotel mixed up our cake with someone else's and we didn't even know it! We were able to relax and enjoy our guests instead of worrying about any details. You really made the day effortless for us! Both rooms were fabulous, but especially the Drawing Room! We received many compliments and everyone had a wonderful time! Thanks again Jen it was a pleasure having you be a part of our wedding!
Carmen & Darcy
Once I realized we had given ourselves approximately five months to plan our entire wedding, I convinced my fiance of our need for a wedding planner and started looking for one online. Atmosphere's website stood out from the rest, and everything about Atmosphere from that point on impressed me. In my first phone call with Jen I felt like a huge weight had been lifted. She was more than I'd expected. She was warm, friendly, knowledgable, and enthusiastic. She "got me" right away.
For our first meeting Jen was not only willing to meet me at my home after my kids were in bed, but she was willing to stay as long as it took to get to know me and my vision for my wedding. It was the beginning of a relationship that surpassed my highest expectations.
Jen worked with my schedule, which couldn't have been easy since I worked full time, had two young children, and a fiance who worked out of town. Jen really took into account my personality and individual situation in her approach to planning my wedding. Jen was my motivation when I needed it, my shoulder to cry on, my sounding board, and so many other things.
Jen assisted with everything from the major decisions like choosing a venue to the tinyest thing like coming to the bridal shop with me because I wanted her opinion on fitting the bridesmaids dresses. I am still amazed at how much Jen put into my wedding. In all honesty I feel blessed to have found her. It was more than worth it to have hired Jen as our wedding planner - and it wasn't long before my initially skeptical fiance was singing her praises too.
Jen was there for me like a best friend would have been, through times of being thrilled, excited, and stressed, through tears of frustration and of joy. I can't even begin to list all the things that Jen did that went above and beyond the call of duty. It didn't matter how much we dropped the ball (she probably thought we started to do it on purpose in the last few days before the wedding!), Jen was always there to pick it up, and she did so with amazing results.
The end result was a happy bride and groom and a wedding that came off beautifully and garnered compliments from many guests. Jen's involvement in our wedding was priceless, and her involvement in our lives will be forever cherished.
Raeanne & Lee
I want to thank you and your team for all of the help you provided me on my
wedding day. Your attention to detail and creative thinking really made a
difference and I couldn't have pulled it off with out you. I am very
appreciative of all of the extra little things you and your team did for me
and my bridal party, the emergency stash of flip flops went a very long way
and my groomsmen were even more appreciative of the beverages you went out
of your way to obtain for them in the middle of the reception. You went
above and beyond for me on a very important day and I will forever be indebt
to you.
Any bride would be lucky to have you as a part of there wedding whether it
be a small part of it or planning the whole thing. Thank you very much.
