My daughter and I had been planning her wedding on our own and about 6 weeks before the wedding my daughter suggested we hire an event day planner. We were so fortunate to find Niki Jorgensen Event Collective through a recommendation of the catering director at the reception venue. Hiring Niki was THE best decision ever as it allowed me, as the mother of the bride, to truly enjoy the day and not worry about details. The day of the wedding, Niki was such a gift. As I had hoped, I didn’t worry about anything knowing she was there to ensure all went as planned. My new son-in-law referred to Niki as the “MVP” of the day. By the time we were ready to leave the reception ballroom, Niki led the charge to get everything cleaned up, packed up, and taken to our room at the resort so we never missed precious time with our out-of- town family and friends as we continued our celebration after the reception.Niki was such a pleasure to work with, very professional and created a perfect day for us! If you are planning a wedding; Niki Jorgensen Event Collective is the absolute right choice for your special day!

7 years and counting!
I run a venue in downtown Phoenix (On Jackson). I have had the opportunity to work with Niki and her team for over 7 years. Niki and her team are always professional and organized and everything you would want in a planner but on top of that, she doesn't know the meaning of the word NO! In all of this time, I have never had a case where I or one of my clients had a vision or idea that she has ever said "we can't do that", and believe me we have done some pretty amazing and outrageous events! Niki is always responsive to calls, texts and emails, and never has left us hanging. I can't say enough good things about her and her team to sufficiently cover what an asset she has been to our venue and our clients. We definitely look forward to what the future holds as we plan and execute more events with her and her team!

A Pure Joy
Niki & crew are an amazing company to work with. Very knowledgeable, creative ideas that are executed with above & beyond your imagination, professional in every way & always have a smile on their face-meaning they love what they do. I will always recommend them for any party (from wedding, corporate, birthday, or just because you want a party) because they are a pure joy to work with. You'll be at ease knowing your event is in such good hands!
- Sandi,
Niki is Amazing!
I have been to several events that Niki has planned and every one is impeccable. She is a very sweet person and her attention to detail is amazing. I highly recommend her for your next event!
- Renea,
Hire her now!
I don’t have words to properly review this girl, because she rendered us speechless. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing, and she took care of all of our incredibly specific needs.

Best Day of my Life
I do not know where to begin on how helpful Niki was when it came to my wedding. It was an adventure in planning and she went on the long windy road with me! On the day of my wedding when my cake got knocked over Niki jumped into action saving the day! She made my cake look as though nothing happened. She’s amazing at planning. I highly recommend NJ Event Collective and Niki to any bride looking for the best in the industry!
- Sarah Woods,
ON POINT PLANNER
I have worked with Niki on corporate events, networking events, and private events, and her planning and details will make it absolutely easy to plug in as a vendor. She takes part in and oversees events from the date on the calendar to the conclusion. Clients' vision becomes her vision and ensures vendors are on point and takes care of them as well so that it is a cohesive event. Niki is a planner with a vision.
- JERRY TOPETE,
Niki is fabulous!!
Planning a wedding? You will never regret Niki's help! As "Mother of the Bride," it was important to me to be able to truly enjoy my daughter's wedding day stress-free. I wanted to be fully present without being distracted by tending to details and timeline issues and I certainly didn't want my daughter to be a point person for anything that came up that day. While I did want to be a large part of the planning process with my daughter and her future husband, my daughter and I decided early on that we wanted someone to help make sure everything went smoothly the day of the wedding. We were impressed with Niki right away during our phone interview. She was very professional and business-like. While we hired Niki for "month of" wedding planning, she was available for questions we had during the months leading up to the wedding and had great insight for us as we were putting together all the details. And having Niki's hands-on help the month of the wedding and on the wedding day was truly a blessing! She was reliable and dependable; we completely trusted her! It was a wonderful, stress free day, full of beautiful moments! I was able to truly relax and enjoy it all! And my daughter and her new husband said it was the "best day ever." You can't ask for more than that! I am forever grateful to Niki for all she did to help make sure their wedding day was as perfect as possible!

Best Wedding Planner!
I'm so happy we found Niki! We started planning about a year and a half in advance. Everything from vendor management to last-minute hiccups was taken care of by Niki. Our garden wall even fell off the truck on the way to the venue the day of the wedding, but Niki was able to scrounge something up and make it work with the vision I wanted. Even through all my last-minute anxieties, Niki and her team were responsive and there to calm me down. She took care of literally everything and I would HIGHGLY recommend!

Dream Team
Bringing Niki and Cheyenne on to help with my wedding was one of the best things I ever did. They were professional, enthusiastic, and beyond helpful from start to finish! It was so nice to be able to fall back on their ideas, opinions, and support, especially on the day of our wedding. They were truly the dream team and I'm so thankful for their services!
- Chiara Minneci-Garred,
The best!
Niki and her team are hands down the best! They pay attention to every single detail, nothing is missed! From start to finish they are incredibly helpful and such hard workers! Niki was always available to answer any questions we had at any time! She made is so that none of us had to stress at all on our wedding day or even leading up to the big day! Would highly recommend to anyone who needs an event planner for literally anything! We love her and her team❤️
- Kylie,
Highly Recommend
We highly recommend Niki and her team to anyone in need of a dedicated, professional, and passionate wedding planner. Their dedication to creating a memorable and stress-free wedding experience is second to none. Our wedding day was a dream come true, and it wouldn’t have been possible without them. Thank you Niki and Team!

Terrifc Team
As a wedding cake designer, I rely on wedding planners to help coordinate details so that everything is easy and perfect for our client's special celebration. Jaime, from NJ Event Collective, was wonderful. She was responsive, thoughtful, and helpful. Her assistance made delivery and set-up of our client's wedding cake flawless. I'm looking forward to continued opportunities to work with the NJ Event Collective team.

Worth every penny!
Niki/ NJ event collective was incredible! I was initially skeptical of having a coordinator to assist in coordinating our wedding for budget reasons, but in hindsight it was an absolute must to ensure our day ran smoothly and keep us stress free as the bride and groom. Niki was able to coordinate directly with our vendors and gave us numerous ideas and tips on decor and flow of ceremony and the day in general. She was very organized and had the perfect amount of help in the weeks leading up to the wedding. Niki also was instrumental in making our DIY decor look flawless! She also validated the typical overwhelming feelings before a wedding and it was clear she is in the right business. She made our day feel extremely important to her and she was just a true joy to work with. I can’t say enough good things!!

Above and Beyond
Look no further then Niki and her team for your wedding/event! Every detail was executed perfectly. A big thing for me was not wanting to have to set up or worry about a task. All tasks and set up were done by her team and vendors! Our joke is to have our 5 year reunion out in AZ and if that happens, Niki will be my first call! We hired her for day of coordinator, but you will get SO much more. We absolutely love her and we can’t wait to see her business continue to be successful!
- Peri,
BEST IN THE BUSINESS!
I would like to start off by thanking Niki and her team for everything! From the time we first met, to planning throughout the year, it was seriously so much fun. Niki felt like family and truly cared about our vision. She was so helpful and kind throughout the entire process. She recommended what was best for us and is just phenomenal at what she does. I didn't feel stressed during the planning process because I knew we were in great hands. Lets just say, our wedding was absolutely breathtaking. Several of our guest commented on how beautiful our wedding was. To see what Niki & her team did, along with Joan, was more than we could of ever imagined. My husband and I are still on cloud 9 and would 10/10 HIGHLY recommend Niki and her team as your event planner!

Niki and her team are absolutely AMAZING! Niki organized and coordinated my wedding in 3 months! She eased all of my stress, helped me communicate with vendors, and planned out my entire wedding day with such high quality and expertise.

Flawless Execution & Worth Partnering with!
We recently partnered with NJ event collective for a couples event at desert botanical garden we were catering. Jamie from their team worked closely with us to ensure a flawless execution and amazing wedding for Chris & Mariel! From the tasting process through the day of we felt her constant support and attentiveness. With a busy event season underway and being a busy catering company and knowing the challenges this time of year always brings with so many clients to attend to, I never felt like our team or our mutual couple wasn't a top priority. We look forward to working with NJ, Jamie and her NJEC team again soon!

My love note to the NJEC team
Hiring this team was some of the best money we spent on our wedding! Niki, Jaime, and the whole NJEC crew honored my vision and executed my wedding day exactly as I had been dreaming, organizing, and planning for over a year. We recently got married at the Desert Botanical Gardens, and the amount of street cred that follows Niki's name is amazing. All my other vendors knew her and loved working with her which made the process that much easier.
Both in the planning process (I went with their "month-of" services) and the execution process, NJEC went above and beyond so we were able to enjoy and experience our wedding day and be totally present in each moment. They did everything in their power to make us both feel prioritized, pampered, and shielded from any chaos or challenges. If you want a team that will put you first, advocate for you when vendors are being tricky, think of every little detail that you never would've considered, AND make your wedding day run smoothly, then I highly recommend NJEC.
Especially if you're getting married at the Desert Botanical Gardens!
