I just looked at the calendar and realized September is almost over. In true Jon’ette fashion, because I’m always giving to my clients and forgetting about myself, I almost let the 14 year anniversary of J Squared Events pass without acknowledgement. Lord knows it’s not easy being an entrepreneur, but in September 2001, I happily […]
Thursday, September 17, 2015 marked my first time working in Sunol at Elliston Vineyards. Elliston is a quaint venue with a lot of personality. What really convinced my clients to choose Elliston over other Bay Area wedding venues was how private and secluded it was. Lots of area for gorgeous photos whether your event is […]
If you follow me on Facebook or Twitter, then you know back in December 2013, I named watercolor designs as the hottest cake trend of 2014!

In May 2013, I announced that J2 Events will be planning and designing its 1st Annual Sickle Cell Charity Gala [Save the Date], where proceeds will go to the Sickle Cell Disease Foundation of California to further their research efforts to find a cure and provide aid to those living with this terrible illness. At that time, I […]
My best friend actually called me with today’s question. “Have you ever heard of a parent hosting a skating birthday party for their child where those invited had to pay their own entry?” Styles and trends might change over time, but one thing will always remain the same; when hosting an event of any type, you never […]
Today’s question comes via Facebook: “Is it customary to be invited to a bridal shower, but not the wedding? I was invited to a shower fairly recently, but not the wedding. Now that I’ve been invited to another couple’s pre-wedding event, I’m a bit gun shy.” In a word, yes, you should absolutely expect to […]
