Services and specialization

Jocelyn Bacon Events offers wedding and elopement planning and coordination. Its official service pages focus particularly on intimate weddings and romantic elopements, while also describing full-service planning for celebrations ranging from mountain elopements to multi-day weddings.

Full-service planning is described as support from the initial planning stage through the celebration itself. The published scope includes developing a personalized budget, creative direction, connecting couples with venues and vendors, reviewing quotes and contracts, and event-day coordination. The site also describes wedding management for couples who have already handled much of the planning and want help bringing final logistics together.

Wedding management includes a planning and organization system, rehearsal and wedding-day installation coordination, up to eight hours on-site with extra hours available, venue-design support, vendor-team coaching and vendor communication. One-hour wedding consultations are also available for couples seeking targeted guidance with areas such as timelines, vendor recommendations or planning decisions.

Elopement planning and packages

Elopements are a clear specialization. The published BC and nationwide package starts at $5,680 CDN plus GST and combines planning and coordination with several wedding-day elements. The stated inclusions cover scheduling, logistics, paperwork, emails, calls, vendor management, preparation, installation and timeline creation.

The package page also lists an officiant, professional photography, hair and makeup, and two floral pieces. Adventure options can include a West Coast location, with separate listed add-ons for helicopter and yacht experiences. Packages are presented as customizable, so the final scope should be confirmed directly rather than inferred from the starting package.

The official information notes that witnesses can be supplied by the planner and photographer or brought by the couple. Children and pets are welcome, while many locations involve some walking. The package normally operates rain or shine and is available Monday through Thursday year-round; weekend availability requires an enquiry.

Service area and who it may suit

Jocelyn Bacon Events lists Sunshine Coast and Vancouver, BC as its location and describes service across British Columbia and nationwide. The business does not publish a street address, so this profile does not assign a postal address or imply a walk-in office location.

The documented offering may suit couples planning a small, personal ceremony, an outdoor or adventure-oriented elopement, or a wedding where they want a planner to take on logistics and vendor coordination. Couples considering a larger or multi-day event can ask whether full-service planning is available for their date, guest count and chosen location.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

A documented strength is the breadth of the published planning scope: the company identifies full-service planning, wedding management, consultations and packaged elopement coordination rather than offering only a single planning format. Its elopement page also provides practical booking details, including package components, weather approach, accessibility considerations and weekday availability.

The practical limitation is that packages are tailored and some options depend on location, weather and availability. Couples should therefore confirm which suppliers, travel arrangements, hours, permits and add-ons apply to their specific event. A public street address is not published on the official pages reviewed.

Pricing

Current pricing is explicitly published. Full-service planning is listed at $10,000, or 15% of the overall budget when the budget exceeds $70,000, plus GST. Wedding management starts at $2,000 plus GST for 50 people or fewer and $5,000 plus GST for 50 to 100 people. Consultations are listed at $95 per hour plus GST.

The published BC and nationwide elopement package starts at $5,680 CDN plus GST. The official page separately lists helicopter and yacht adventure add-ons, and says packages can be customized. Couples should request a written proposal that confirms inclusions, taxes, travel, any location-specific costs and payment terms.

Contact and booking

The confirmed contact details are hello@jocelynbaconevents.ca and 604-833-0524. The official site directs couples to contact Jocelyn by email or through its enquiry form.

When reaching out, it is useful to include the date, preferred region, expected guest count, ceremony style and whether the event is an elopement, intimate wedding or a larger celebration. For elopements, ask whether the preferred date is a weekday or requires weekend availability.

What couples should confirm

Before booking, confirm the planner’s availability, the final package scope and the assigned planning team. If the celebration involves an outdoor location, ask who handles permits, travel logistics, weather contingencies and accessibility planning. Couples seeking a legal marriage should also note that the official page says they purchase and provide their own marriage licence.

Ask for the event schedule, vendor responsibilities, on-site coverage hours, additional-hour rate, deposit and payment schedule, and cancellation or postponement terms in writing. For customized elopements, confirm whether photography, florals, hair and makeup, officiating and adventure transport are included in the final quote.
