Let us
plan your next event

Isla Spring Events is an event management team devoted to connecting people, passion, and purposeful vibes. We create, you celebrate!

We believe life is too short not to celebrate the milestones in our lives (big and small) and definitely too important not to hire someone that can allow you to be present in the moment.

Hi There!

I’m Isla (pronounced “eye-la”), owner and lead planner of Isla Spring Events. “Spring” happens to be my middle name after being born on the first day of spring. Names tie you back to your roots and can say a lot about who you are…and for that, I have named my passion after what has helped shape me into who I am today.

A Little Bit About Where I Came From…

A true Floridian, I grew up on a farm in the small town of Alachua, Florida. I studied International Business at the University of North Florida where a love for travel quickly began when I had an amazing opportunity to study and work abroad in Europe and the UK for a few years. Soon after, I settled into Jacksonville, where I now call home.

After taking a role as an event planner at a non-profit called Wounded Warrior Project, it was there that my love for planning events and helping others grew into something I am now extremely passionate about. I was also fortunate enough to find the love of my life, Casey, while working there.

Did I mention I love the details?

"

Getting back to what I do and what I can do for you.

I have 7+ years of event planning experience, am CMP certified (Certified Meeting Professional), and now very excited to have followed my dream of starting my own event business in 2016. This passion drives me because I love bringing people together to celebrate and create memories that they will never forget. Each event will always be unique because it’s the different people, vision, and experience that makes the event what it is.

I have grown up loving design and being creative in whatever way possible and I’m thrilled to be able to let that blossom through my business. In addition to weddings, I have extensive experience planning social, corporate, non-profit, and other special events. Have a destination in mind or maybe you’re not local to Jacksonville but want some Florida flair? I have planned events all over the world including Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Germany, China and even Alaska (Bear Spay is a real thing).

So now I want to hear all about you and how I can make that milestone celebration become a lifelong memory!

LET US PLAN YOUR NEXT EVENT

WEDDINGS ARE OUR JAM…

Don’t know where to start or just don’t have the time? Perhaps you have done most of the planning but need a little help putting all the pieces together…

Or maybe you’re an avid planner and love the details as much as we do…You’ve already planned your dream day and only need someone there to help manage the event so your family, friends, and most importantly you and your soon-to-be can be stress-free.

Whether you need a wedding planner from start to finish, or you’ve done majority of the planning and just need some help leading up to your big day, we can help you plan your dream wedding starting with event design to selecting the best venue and vendors for your special day to negotiating contracts, managing your custom checklist, and much, much more!

Relax and let us handle exactly what you need leading up to your special day!

LUCKY FOR YOU…
WE PLAN ALL SORTS OF CELEBRATIONS!

In addition to weddings at Isla Spring Events, we have years of experience planning other social and corporate events. From a birthday party to rehearsal dinner to a corporate retreat…we can customize a proposal based on your event needs!

Here are a few other events we plan:

Baby Showers
Anniversary Parties
Birthday Parties
Retreats
Corporate Events & Meetings
Product Launches
Open Houses
Engagement Parties
Surprise Proposals
Religious Ceremonies

BUILD YOUR OWN CUSTOM PACKAGE

Packages are great…BUT they’re EVEN better when you get to customize your own!

From our experience, we’ve found that most clients would prefer to book a service that is fully customized to their event needs. People want to pay for exactly what they need…weird, huh?!

SO, instead of offering pre-packaged options and wishing you could customize them, why not allow you to build your own based on your unique event’s needs and have a custom proposal right from the start?

After selecting your must haves and would like to haves, we’ll respond with a proposal based on your custom needs. Any of our services also come with an initial consultation where we can sit down over a cup of coffee and get to know each other a little better. We can’t wait to meet you and hear about your event!

“Isla offered everything that we could have imagined and more! Planning a wedding is very stressful and Isla always had an upbeat demeanor. She had a great way of keeping our stress levels down and making us smile. She is extremely organized and pays attention to every detail. There would have been many things that we would have forgotten about for our wedding if we didn’t have Isla helping us! I honestly can’t imagine how everything would have come together if we didn’t have Isla’s help! She had everything organized the day of the wedding and we didn’t have to think about one thing – it was truly incredible!”

“I am so glad we had Isla to help us with the stress of wedding planning. Isla is professional and organized, and always made me feel comfortable knowing she had everything under control. Isla was technically our “Day-Of” Coordinator, but she went above and beyond and did so much more for us. Isla provided us and helped us with a detailed spreadsheet in order to organize our vendors, create appropriate timelines, and keep everything in order for our big day.

Isla was wonderful and I couldn’t imagine doing it without her help!”
