About J's Elevated Dreams
J's Elevated Dreams
Born and raised in the vibrant city of Chicago, I come from a big, lively, and wonderfully loud Middle Eastern family, my heart has always been set on bringing people together and celebrating love in all its forms. What better way to do that than planning fabulous + unforgettable weddings, birthdays, showers, + more! My friends often turn to me for organizing their events, our travel adventures, & booking our excursions, which sparked the idea: why not make this my career? With over 5 years of professional event planning experience under my belt, I’ve absolutely fallen in love with crafting every little detail to ensure your day is perfect!
When you have me by your side during the planning process, you can relax and enjoy the journey. No need to stress about how everything will come together on the big day or who will be coordinating all your fabulous vendors—I’ve got it all covered! I’m here to make your elevated dreams come true and sprinkle a little magic into every celebration! Featured in Chicago Style Weddings

Jen is the best
10/10 wedding day thanks to Jen and her team!!! Jen went ABOVE and beyond to help me on our wedding day when weather didn’t go as planned, running to her car to get me a curler, working with vendors to change plans, and helped to completely turn it around into the best day ever! Throughout the planning process she consistently impressed us with all the details she remembered from our meetings and was able to take care of everything so that I didn’t have to contact a single vendor all weekend bc Jen had it all handled and I could spend time with my friends and family. Highly highly recommend her!

10/10!!!!!!
Working with Jen and her assistant from J's Elevated Dreams was truly a game-changer for our wedding day. From our first conversation, Jen listened carefully to what we wanted and stayed on top of every detail leading up to the big day. She and her assistant were constantly by our side throughout the event, making sure the timing flowed perfectly and handling all the vendor coordination so we didn't have to worry about anything. What really stood out was how much she genuinely cared about making our day special! It showed in everything she did. Our wedding was beautiful in every way, and we honestly can't imagine how we would have pulled it off without her. If you're looking for a wedding planner, hire Jen!!!

Seamless from Start to Finish
Hiring Jen as our day-of coordinator was the best decision we made for our wedding. She was so thorough and responsive throughout the entire process and thought of details we never would have considered. On the wedding day, she handled vendors, helped with setup and breakdown, kept everything on schedule, and made sure the day ran smoothly. We were able to fully relax and enjoy every moment because we knew she had it covered. If anything went wrong, we had no idea. She was incredible, and we truly cannot recommend her enough.
Jen David•Feb 23, 2026Laura, I appreciate your kind words! You and Kareem were such a dream to work with and you looked stunning on your day! <3 Wish you two the best!

Photographer
Jen was fantastic to work with! From our first call together she was organized and helpful from the jump, making sure I as the photographer didn’t need anything specifically. Not only did she prioritize the couple, she was able to communicate their needs to best help us as vendors do our jobs to the best of our abilities. She was professional and kind and I would love to work with Jen again!
Jen David•Jan 13, 2026Thank you so much Rachel! It was an absolute pleasure working with you and your team! You are truly a gem and amazing at what you do! Can't wait to work with you again soon <3

2025 Bride
We can’t say enough wonderful things about Jen at J’s Elevated Dreams! From our very first conversation, she instantly “got” us and what we wanted for our day. There were so many parts of the wedding (like the flowers, card tables, and other little details) where we truly didn’t have a plan, so we gave Jen total creative freedom. She delivered beyond anything I could have imagined! Her attention to detail, incredible vendor recommendations, and genuine kindness made every step fun, stress-free, and totally personalized. Jen and her fantastic team (a special shout-out to Kay!) handled every detail so we could fully enjoy the celebration. We had multiple guests tell us how seamless the flow of the day was and how beautiful everything looked. If you want someone who cares deeply, listens, and turns your ideas into a reality, reach out to Jen! We are forever grateful!
Jen David•Nov 10, 2025L&C<3 such a perfect couple - your love is truly inspiring! Thank you so much! I'm truly blessed with amazing couples like you!
