Hey, I'm Jennifer
DMW began from the belief that weddings should feel personal, meaningful, and stress free, not rushed, overpriced, or performative. After seeing so many couples overwhelmed by traditional expectations, it became clear there had to be a better way to celebrate love.
As a dedicated wedding planner, my role is to make your experience seamless, from thoughtful planning and expert coordination to intentional details that reflect who you are as a couple.
Based in Durham Region, I bring over 15 years of professional event management experience, including multi-day events with over 1,000 guests as well as intimate celebrations with fewer than 10. Whether your wedding is small or slightly larger, I approach every event with the same level of care, organization, and attention to detail.
That depth of experience allows me to anticipate challenges, manage logistics calmly, and create a wedding day that feels effortless, so you can be fully present and enjoy every moment.
In my free time you can find me
spending quality time with my family and being outside as much as possible.
I’ve always been drawn to creating meaningful experiences, and I find my inspiration in real, everyday moments and the people around me.
That love for connection and intention is what naturally led me into this industry, and it’s something I carry into every project I take on.
DMW WAS CREATED WITH ONE SIMPLE IDEA IN MIND
What if getting married could feel just as meaningful… without all the stress? For so many couples, the options felt limited. We knew there had to be a better way,
so we created one.
Our approach is rooted in thoughtful design, seamless planning, and a fully supported experience from start to finish.
We bring together trusted vendors, beautifully curated spaces, and intentional details so your wedding feels complete.
Just your wedding, your people, your moment.
As Durham Region’s first dedicated micro wedding company, we’re redefining what small celebrations can look like: more personal, more relaxed, and genuinely meaningful.
OUR history
WHERE WEDDINGS FEEL EFFORTLESS
A thoughtful approach to modern weddings
We believe there isn't just one "right way" to get married. A wedding should feel like a celebration, not something you have to manage.
Some couples dream of a large, traditional celebration. Others are drawn to something smaller and more intimate. Most fall somewhere in between. That's where we come in.
We’ve taken everything couples love about traditional weddings and refined it into an experience that feels effortless, intimate, and genuinely enjoyable.
• Thoughtfully designed spaces that feel elevated and personal
• A seamless experience from start to finish
• Time to actually celebrate, not just show up for a ceremony
We handle every detail, so your day feels complete and considered.
No rushing. No stress. No piecing it together on your own.
Private — your day, your space
Flexible — designed around your vision
Complete — ceremony and time to celebrate
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
BRINGING THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS
Traditional weddings bring beautiful moments, structure, and meaningful celebration with loved ones, but they can also come with long timelines, overwhelming decisions, and added pressure. Micro weddings offer a more intentional, relaxed experience.
Our approach blends both. You get the significance of a traditional wedding with the ease and intimacy of a micro wedding. It’s a guided process that feels clear and manageable, giving you structure without the stress, so your wedding feels fully your own without starting from scratch.

CLIENT LOVE NOTES
We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Jennifer and the team at Durham Micro Weddings. From the very beginning, the entire process felt seamless and stress-free. In approximately three months, Jennifer brought our vision to life and created the most beautiful and intimate wedding we could have imagined.
Our ceremony was held in an art gallery, which made the setting feel so unique, different, and effortlessly classy. It was the perfect backdrop for an intimate celebration, and every detail was thoughtfully executed to complement the space.
Planning a wedding can feel overwhelming, but with Durham Micro Weddings, everything felt effortless. Jennifer was incredibly organized, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure every detail was handled with care. On our wedding day, everything flowed beautifully. I was running a little late, but Jennifer managed everything so smoothly and made sure I wasn’t seen by my husband before the ceremony. A small detail that meant so much to us and truly shows her level of dedication.
Because of her calm presence and professionalism, we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. We are so grateful for all the hard work, heart, and attention that went into making our celebration so special. We highly recommend Durham Micro Weddings to any couple looking for a smooth, intentional, and unforgettable wedding experience. Thank you for making our day truly magical!
