Hi, I’m Jailyn, and To Have & To Hold Events is my little corner of the world where love stories are not just told, but lived in vivid color. I started this business as a way to step away from the corporate grind, but what I really found was a calling, a way to be surrounded by the very thing that makes life feel like a song you never want to end.
I’m a proud dog mom to three gorgeous Weimaraners who have taught me more about joy and loyalty than I could ever put into words. When I’m not planning weddings, you’ll find me singing my heart out, twirling around the kitchen to whatever song is on repeat, or running through the mountains where the air feels like freedom.
I’ve always been in love with the idea of love. The way two people can look at each other across a crowded room and somehow know. The way a wedding day hums with anticipation in the quiet moments before the music starts. The way vows, spoken through teary smiles, can make even the strongest hearts crack open. Weddings make me feel like I’m standing inside a love song, somewhere between the bridge and the final chorus, where the air feels sweeter and time slows just enough for you to memorize the way it all felt.
For me, love true, lasting love, is the most beautiful thing we get to witness in this lifetime. It’s both fragile and unshakable, quiet and roaring. Your wedding day isn’t just another date on the calendar, it’s a promise wrapped in laughter and tears, surrounded by the people who know your hearts best. And I consider it a privilege, an honor, and a little bit of magic to be trusted with bringing that promise to life.
This is more than a business to me. It’s a love letter to every couple I’ve had the joy of walking alongside. A reminder that your story matters, your love is rare, and the start of your forever deserves to be nothing less than unforgettable.
