WHAT I AM ALL ABOUT HERE
Hey there! I’m Alexis – the heart and creative mind behind Jaded Events. I launched this business with one goal in mind: to create unforgettable bridal experiences that feel just as fun and meaningful as they are seamless and stress-free. As a 2022 bride myself, I totally get how overwhelming wedding planning can be – which is exactly why I’m so passionate about helping others navigate it with confidence, clarity, and a whole lot of joy.
When I’m not coordinating dream weddings, I work as an Operations Associate at a startup accounting firm, bringing a healthy dose of organization and structure to everything I do. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me snuggled up with my pups, hunting down the best local Mexican food, or spending time with my favorite people. And in 2025, I added a new title to the mix – mom! My husband and I welcomed Cairo, our son, In April.
I kicked off Jaded Events with one goal – to give brides the BEST experience ever. When you roll with Jaded, you're not just getting a team, you're getting a crew that gets it. Weddings are a wild ride – from name changes and decor decisions to trimming guest lists and planning rehearsal dinners. We’re here for all the chaos, the laughs, the stress, the tears, and of course, the epic celebrations!
I am so glad you're here & look forward to chatting with you soon!

Hi! I am a Midwest Girly who by day is a Sales Trainer for a Magazine company. My best friend since 1st grade just got married recently and I had the privilege to be her maid of honor. From this process I truly fell in love with everything wedding related and wanted to explore this passion more! In my free time you can catch me taking senior photos for people, reading cheesy romances, obsessing over dancing with the stars and spending time with friends and family!
