HELLO. I'M DESTINY JADE. SHE/HER.
To me, inclusivity and affirmation aren’t just buzzwords - they’re the foundation of everything I do. The wedding industry hasn’t always made space for everyone, especially LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC couples, specifically in the midwest. I’m here to change that. You are seen, celebrated, and fully supported here with no questions asked.
As your #1 hype woman and Nearlywed advocate, I’m committed to helping you build a like-minded vendor team and creating a space where you and your partner feel safe, respected, and loved on your wedding day. Services based in Eastern Iowa - Iowa City, Coralville, North Liberty, Cedar Rapids and beyond.
i'm so glad you're here.
SERVICES
and in the middle of my chaos, there was you.
anywhere with you is where i want to be forever.

UNCONVENTIONAL. UNAPOLOGETIC. UNFORGETTABLE.
For Nearlyweds that break rules and push boundaries. This isn’t your mother or grandmother's wedding - it's totally, completely and uniquely yours. Jade Amor Events is rooted in authenticity and motivated by genuine connections.
A LOVER OF ALL THINGS VINTAGE AND OLD ROMANCE.
Whether it be vintage bridal accessories or antique decor - I'm a sucker for any and all of it. Some might say I have an old soul. I can't help but love all things nostalgic.
A PROFESSIONAL COUPLES ADVOCATE AND #1 HYPE GIRL.
Being my couple's advocate is my top priority - allowing you to make decisions with confidence and stand firm in what you truly want during your wedding planning process - and protecting you from an Aunt Janette who may want to micromanage it all. I'm here to guide you and hype you up every step of the way.

FROM CLIENTS
DJ was a crucial aspect of our special day coming together. We had no idea where to start or what goes into planning a wedding, but DJ was able to guide us through each step. Her attention to detail was extremely helpful and her knowledge about wedding etiquette helped us fill any gaps in our process. We couldn't have done it without her!
with love,
THE RILEYS
