Emerson, NJ

  • Offers 7 services
  • Starts at $75

Hi! I'm Jamie, the Owner of Keep It Sweet Studios. I've always had a passion for art in many different mediums. I graduated Rutgers with a degree in Visual Arts & Psychology. I love designing unique pieces of art to help people celebrate and commemorate the special moments in their lives (or even making an ordinary day special!). I pride myself on being detail oriented and organized so event planning was a natural fit. Making people's visions come to life is such a joy. I can't wait to hear your ideas!

Working with Jamie was truly better than I could have imagined! She was our day-of coordinator for our September 2025 wedding, but truly, she was there for us with support and planning from Day 1. Above all, I appreciated her organizational skills, positive and sweet personality, and undeniable talent. She is incredibly warm, personable, and easy to talk to, and was able to calm my nerves about so many different factors for the wedding. Jamie was always there through the process to answer my "silly" questions when I felt overwhelmed with the planning. She went on a venue visit with me to ensure she had a lay of the land before our wedding, and she created a timeline for the day, which she sent out to vendors and VIP guests. She was very communicative with the relevant parties and always knew the right thing to do when questions arose on the day. In addition to her planning skills, she is also a talented artist and made a mirror sign for our ceremony (photo attached). See the Keep It Sweet Instagram page to see other things she can create. Jamie is without a doubt a total professional and a game-changer for such a special day! I only heard glowing reviews from my vendors on working with her, which was no surprise to me. My parents were also so impressed by her. If you are considering working with Jamie on your special day, this is your sign to do so! You won't regret it. I couldn't have done it without her!

Working with Miranda, Raquel, and Kylie was a true pleasure. Kylie assisted us at our rehearsal the day before our wedding, practicing the ceremony to ensure we understood the process and best practices for each bridal party member. Miranda and Raquel were there for us on our wedding date, helping set up decor, running to get breakfast for the bridal party, and being the point of contact with all our vendors. At one point, as the bride, I was getting overstimulated with all the pictures being taken in a short amount of time, and Miranda/Raquel had my back by making sure I had water and 30 minutes to center before our ceremony. I'd recommend Start Rose Creations to family and friends for any event.

We're a husband/wife photography duo. We're college sweethearts and we're currently expecting our first child in June 2021! We are so happy to be in this business but we didn’t always know we’d become wedding photographers. Seth spent about 10 years in video production (aka the equipment expert) and Nicole is an advertising art director (aka the artsy perfectionist).

From the moment we booked Hyde Photography for our wedding, Nicole and Seth were a dream to work with. Their communication was prompt, clear, calming, and incredibly organized - they reached out the week of the wedding when the weather was looking questionable to walk us through a rain plan and reassure us that everything would be taken care of. On the day of, they were efficient, independent, and had an excellent creative vision, capturing all the special moments of our day without ever being intrusive. Nicole and Seth seemed to be exactly where they needed to be to get the perfect shots, yet blended seamlessly into the group so you hardly noticed they were there. We are thrilled with the quality of the photos and the incredible value they provided. We highly recommend Hyde Photography to any couple looking for a stress-free, professional, and talented photography team to document their special day.

We hired Sarah for her services roughly a year out from our wedding. From the start, Sarah was extremely responsive and helped answer all my questions. During this time, we had selected a majority of our vendors but we needed Sarah's expertise in organizing our long to-do list, logistics and design ideas. A majority of our guests were traveling to our wedding so the logistics of how the weekend looked was very important to us as a couple. Sarah seamlessly was able to put together a plan to ensure that we were thinking of every detail needed to get our guests from point A to point B and back. During the weekend of the wedding, Sarah and her team were on top of every detail and that allowed myself and my husband to focus on enjoying the celebration. Sarah's ability to remain calm and handle any challenge that comes her way from vendors is truly an asset that anyone will want for their wedding weekend. We can't thank you enough for making our wedding day so perfect! Having Sarah as our wedding planner was truly one of the best decisions we made during the wedding process.

My husband and I got married at the CKE this October 2024. There aren’t enough words to express our gratitude to their entire team for all of their hard work to make our visions and dreams come to life. Each and every staff member was kind, and helpful. If you had a question you’d get a response promptly and always with a “let’s see what we can do attitude”. Katherine (the owner) made you feel a part of the CKE family and always was looking to make the planning process seamless and easy for us and our family. The CKE floral and design team made our big ideas all come to life- we had a visions of big branching centerpieces with florals tucked in, that Jess and her team absolutely delivered on. On top of that, we asked for an installation over our sweetheart table. Jess and her team have many suggestions and shared they visited Home Depot at least 3 times to see how it would hang, and the final installation beyond exceeded our expectations. The talent and grace their team exudes is what ever bride and groom look for in a team. The planning process was also so seamless due to their amazing coordinator team. We worked with Katrina, the kindest, most professional coordinator we have ever met. Katrina was available at every step of the planning process, providing thoughtful recommendations due to her very obvious experience. Katrina also was there for our wedding day of helping to manage the schedule, set up, constantly checking in, and making sure it all went according to plan (which it did). In addition during the reception Katrina was checking with us throughout the night to see if we wanted to pivot anything or if we needed anything. We are extremely grateful for her support! In addition, Kyle was our maitre d’ for the evening and he did an absolutely wonderful job. He made sure to check in with my husband and I as well as our immediate family members. He was so kind and professional! Lastly but very importantly- the food and drinks! Most of all of our guests shared that this was the best wedding food they have ever had. It is no small feat cooking for large groups and every aspect of the food from the cocktail hour to the dinner course was absolutely fantastic. These are a few quotes from guests: - “The food was gourmet.” - “This is the real deal.” - “The sushi… Oh, the sushi! So fresh!” In addition, the bartenders crushed it! Everyone was impressed by the quality of the drinks and we never had a line at the bar- they were fast and catered to our guests. I would highly recommend the CKE to future couples getting married. The aspect of the family business really shows and ensures you have a tailored experience for your wedding. The entire staff is kind and down to earth- always willing to help. We wish them nothing but the best for their future wedding seasons!

We used LSC Event Planning for month-of coordination, and as much as we loved our vendors, working with LSC was the best money we spent to give us peace of mind throughout the process. Eli and her team went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day went off without a hitch. Eli is incredibly organized, professional, detail-oriented, and kind. She made the entire process seamless from start to finish. Our weekly meetings were a pleasure to look forward to as she always came prepared with an agenda and a smile. She’s a true wealth of knowledge when it comes to weddings and vendor management, and she answered every single one of our questions (big or small) with so much patience. From gratuities to floor plans to timelines to day-of checklists, Eli handled it all with grace. She guided us through countless decisions with confidence and care, and always made us feel supported. What stood out most was how Eli and her team treated us like old friends. They were present and reassuring for every question, comment, or curiosity we had. On the wedding day, we didn’t have to worry about a thing—they had everything handled so we could truly enjoy the celebration. The team knew exactly when we were needed and when we could be left alone to soak in the day. We heard nothing but positive things from other vendors about how LSC executed the day. They took tons of behind-the-scenes photos and videos as well to help us relive the big moments, which we truly appreciated. From the initial consultation, it was clear that Eli and her team have a passion for creating heartfelt memories and making every couple feel special. We are strongly recommending LSC Event Planning to all of our friends & family who are planning to get married. If you’re looking for a coordinator that will exceed expectations in every possible way, Eli and her team are on it!

It was a pleasure working with Sonya and her team for our big day! From the initial phone conversation, she made sure to listen to what we wanted and came back with recommendations that really brought it to life. She ensured that we stayed within the budget parameters we set by providing various options of things we could do but, making sure everything was still of the highest quality. She even worked with our schedule to come meet us at the venue with samples to finalize all the details. A few days before the wedding we ran into a small issue around the Chuppah structure we chose and she made sure to call us right away to explain the situation, and came up with alternative solutions that did not require any additional charge. The finished product was beautiful. I’m still getting compliments on my flower arrangements a month later!! If you work with Sonya and her team, you won’t be sorry!

Our wedding could not have been any better, thanks to Liberty House and their wonderful staff. Aurora was our contact at Liberty House, and she had everything down to a science. I never had to stress about anything. She answered all of our questions quickly and never made me feel dumb for asking the simplest of questions. I truly appreciated her guidance. The food at Liberty House was divine. Truly, their chefs are a league above others. The options we had for food selections were incredible, and we're so happy with everything we picked. Our guests still talk about the mozzarella station! On the day of the wedding, the staff was, in short, flawless. Once we arrived, they were attentive and got us and our wedding party anything we needed. When sending over our decor, I had given them a rough idea of how we wanted things to look. But I never imagined that they'd set up everything so beautifully! They took my one-sentence description and turned it into a masterpiece. Throughout the night, the staff was always there to help. From walking in my dress to getting me hot water when I was freezing, they were always ready to help. When my drink was low, they got me a new one. When I started to leave without my shoes on, they grabbed me some flip flops. When we decided last-minute that we wanted to have a rehearsal dinner at the Madison Rose, they made the process seamless. My wedding wasn't stressful. I felt like a guest at my wedding thanks to their staff. The grounds are gorgeous, the food is to die for, and the staff is exceptional!

I am still riding the high from my wedding hosted at Skyview Golf Club and I can't say enough great thing. If you're planning a wedding this is your venue. Not only is it one of the more affordable wedding venues in North Jersey, the staff and specifically coordinator Hildegard Power, are incredible at what they do. Hildegard walked me through the entire planning process, maintained the excitement and quickly answered all of questions (no matter how repetitive or the hour). The venue itself, without any additional decor, is stunning. Modern, open layout that accentuate the natural scenery. The bartenders were incredible, my guests are still asking me for recipes from our signature drinks (house cocktails suggested an made by Skyview) and the food was delicious. Hildegard ensured we actually got to eat on our wedding day, enjoy our choices and savor each moment and bite. The options for food, both cocktail hour and dinner are extraordinary--it became my husband and I's favorite date night activity to try to narrow down our favorite menu items. Eating them all on the big day was icing on the cake. I had a very specific vision for my wedding and Hildegard worked with me and my family to bring it to life, from decor drop-off and organization to final touches and last minute changes on the big day. More than anything, the most worthwhile and best thing I got from Skyview was reassurance and peace of mind. As a bride, there are a million decisions you have to make and even more things that will creep into your mind to worry you. I was never once worried that something may go wrong or fall through at Skyview. Hildegard built a strong foundation of trust and communication with us that truly made the big day everything I hoped. I was able to be in the moment and enjoy every second of my wedding to the fullest thanks to Skyview.
