Welcome to the blog

Hi! I'm Jessica Zimmerman, top wedding planner, floral designer, and founder of Zimmerman Events and Education.

I teach fellow wedding professionals the exact systems, sales processes, tools, scripts, and templates I used to make a (six figure) living designing flowers and planning weddings, all while raising my three kids. Because what's the point of owning your own business if you can't live your dream life?

I've been named a top wedding planner by Southern Living magazine, and have my wedding and floral work featured in PEOPLE magazine, Martha Stewart Weddings, Brides, Once Wed, and more.

And my signature straight-shooting business insights have been featured in Forbes, Entrepreneur, and Business Insider.

Join me on this journey and get my best tips and tricks by tuning into the blog each week, and follow me on social media with the links below.
