Who We Are

You’re planning a wedding that feels like you. Not a Pinterest template or a ballroom cookie-cutter event — but a day that celebrates your story, your quirks, your people (and yes, your pets).

At Less Stress Wedding, we support couples throughout Albuquerque, New Mexico, and parts of Texas by simplifying the planning process and taking the pressure off your shoulders.

Whether you need full-service planning, day-of coordination, or just help pulling together the final pieces, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

Our Planning Style

We believe weddings should be:

  • Fun — not something to "get through," but to enjoy along the way

  • Collaborative — your voice matters every step of the way

  • Creative — we’re all about embracing your fandoms, colors, and weird little traditions

  • Intentional — we focus on what matters most to you, not just what tradition says

Our Reviews

  • Jasmine K

    We had a great experience with Joan and Less Stress Wedding! Joan was on top of everything and super communicative throughout the planning process. She made sure that our wedding day went smoothly and was great at coordinating with all the vendors and making sure everything went off without a hitch! It was a joy to work with Joan and we highly recommend her!

  • Kathryn L

    Jenna and Joan were so easy to work with and helped me tremendously throughout the planning process. They know what they are doing and our big day would not have been a success without them. They relieved so many stresses associated with coordinating on the day of the wedding and I couldn't be happier with their services. I absolutely recommend you hire them.

  • Grace K

    Jenna at Less Stress Wedding was an incredible help to me and my husband for our June 12 wedding! She helped in various ways throughout the wedding planning process and was particularly helpful in the days leading up to the wedding as we tied up all of the loose ends. I would absolutely recommend her as a right hand woman for your special day!

  • Melody J

    Jenna went above and beyond what I expected, for the price we paid. She is SO affordable! I did not have to worry about a single thing on my wedding day, and she is super knowledgeable. We could not have pulled it off without her. She was even ironing guests'’ clothes!! YOU NEED TO HIRE HER.

  • Akiva B

    Jenna at Less Stress Wedding provided excellent professional service and leveraged her experience with a personal touch to make our day so special. Easily gets my recommendation!

  • Kate S

    For our wedding on June 12, we hired Joan to be our coordinator. She helped in almost every way possible and if it wasn't for her - I assure you, I would have been very, very stressed. She made everything make sense for me and as the bride, I was able to enjoy my day instead of worrying about vendors, etc. It was the best wedding planning decision I made and I highly recommend if you have a wedding coming up - hire Less Stress now!! Five stars.

    Jenna was a source of comfort and confidence during a time anxiety can creep in. If you think you don't need a wedding planner, think again. I organize corporate events for a living and thought I could handle wedding planning. I was way over my head. I only wish I had found Jenna sooner and enlisted more of her services. She’s extremely knowledgeable, friendly and I was incredibly lucky to have had her help. She went above and beyond to help us in any way she could. She truly cares about your day being less stressful for you.

  • Dana H

    Jenna is the BEST! She went above and beyond on our special day and made sure everything went smoothly. With rain, wind, and all, she figured it out without me having to brainstorm a thing. At one point, I even had glass stuck in my foot (barefoot dancing - oops!), and she pulled it out with tweezers and Neosporin and I was right back on the dance floor. She is so organized and an absolute gem to work with. 10/10 recommend!
