Bonafide Events Studio is a London Ontario wedding planner serving couples across Southwestern Ontario. Its confirmed official website identifies Jessica Stacey as founder and lead wedding planner, and says the studio was established in 2013.

The studio focuses on weddings requiring planning beyond a conventional venue package, including tented events, private properties and other non-traditional or blank-slate spaces. Its published services range from comprehensive planning and design to partial support and wedding-day management.

Business overview

Last reviewed: August 11, 2026. Bonafide Events Studio is an active wedding-planning business with a confirmed official website at bonafideeventsstudio.com. The site describes work in London and Stratford, Ontario, as well as Bayfield, Toronto and surrounding areas, with weddings planned across Southwestern Ontario and beyond.

The business’s official materials name Jessica Stacey as founder and lead wedding planner. The site states that the studio was established in 2013 and that Jessica has guided more than 100 couples; this is a company-published statement rather than an independently verified count.

Services and specialization

The official services page lists Full Service Planning & Design, Design + Planning Support, Partial Planning Support, Wedding Management, and Elopements & Micro Weddings. The studio says final scope is tailored to a couple’s needs, guest count and venue.

Full Service Planning & Design includes custom design, vendor management, budget oversight, timeline creation, set-up, tear-down and complete wedding-day management. Design + Planning Support includes design direction and sourcing, eight planning sessions, set-up, tear-down and wedding-day management.

Partial Planning Support includes six planning sessions, three vendor connections and complete wedding-day management. Wedding Management is intended for couples who have planned their own event; the studio says it steps in two months before the wedding to review plans, finalise the timeline and connect with vendors. Elopements and micro weddings are available with custom pricing.

Service area and who it may suit

Bonafide Events Studio says it is based in Perth County and works throughout Southwestern Ontario, including Stratford, Bayfield, Goderich, Kitchener-Waterloo and London. The homepage also names Toronto and surrounding areas. Its published portfolio includes weddings in Sparta, Goderich, Stratford, Bayfield, Woodstock, Cambridge, Plympton-Wyoming and Toronto.

The documented specialization may suit couples holding a wedding at a private property, under a tent or in a space without an on-site venue-coordination team. The business specifically discusses the additional planning required for vendor arrivals, permits, budgets, infrastructure and event flow.

No clean postal address is published in the official pages reviewed, so the address field is intentionally blank. Couples seeking an in-person meeting should confirm the preferred meeting format, travel coverage and any related charges.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

A documented feature is the studio’s focus on the logistics of tented, private-property and non-traditional weddings. The official site also describes planning resources such as budgets, timelines and floor plans, along with coordination of vendors and wedding-day execution.

The service menu offers planning support at several stages, from full planning through final-stage Wedding Management. Published portfolio pages identify Bonafide Events Studio’s role on recent events as either Full Service Planning & Design or Design + Planning Support.

A practical limitation is that the official wedding pages do not publish a postal address. Although a telephone number appears on the official corporate-events page, couples should confirm their preferred contact method and the appropriate route for wedding enquiries.

Pricing

Current starting investments are published on the official wedding-services page. Full Service Planning & Design starts at $8,450 + HST; Design + Planning Support starts at $6,450 + HST; Partial Planning Support starts at $4,450 + HST; and Wedding Management starts at $2,950 + HST.

The studio states that final pricing depends on specific needs, guest count and venue. Elopements and micro weddings have custom pricing rather than a posted starting rate. Request a written proposal that identifies the selected scope, payment schedule, travel or venue-related costs and applicable taxes.

What couples should confirm

Before booking, ask which package best matches the current planning stage and which planning sessions, vendor sourcing, design work and day-of responsibilities are included in writing. For private-property or tented weddings, clarify the approach to permits, rentals, site infrastructure, vendor load-in, contingency planning and teardown.

Also confirm date availability, the assigned planning team, communication cadence, travel coverage, travel-related charges, the payment schedule and what changes would affect the final price. Where a venue or guest count has not been finalised, ask how those decisions influence the quote.
