A'hoy!

Hi, my name is Jen and I am the founder and proud owner of Ocean Weddings & Events. I swapped rainy London for sunny Queensland over 11 years ago and fell in love, not only with beautiful Port Douglas, but everything this amazing part of the world has to offer!

After working as a scuba diving instructor in some of the worlds best locations including Fiji, Thailand and the Great Barrier Reef, I climbed out of the water and into the office.

Working in sales & marketing and business events with key members of the boating, tourism and events industries for the last 8 years, I have built up an extensive knowledge on what this beautiful region has to offer.

My passion for the ocean and love of event planning lead me to start Ocean Weddings & Events, bringing along the most important members of the family, Luna & Frankie 

Awards

Since starting my business I have had the pleasure of planning multiple weddings, proposals and other events. I was a finalist in the 2017 Douglas Business & Tourism Awards and in 2018 took away the runner-up award for Best Wedding Coordinator. I was voted
#1 Winner in the Brides Choice Awards 2019/2020 for the Wedding Planning category. 
​At the 2019 Douglas Business & Tourism Awards I took away the top spot WINNING the category for Best Wedding Coordinator (individual) Unfortunately due to COVID19 award events were put on hold but just recently I was a Finalist in the Wedding Industry Awards 2022 (formally the Brides Choice Awards) ​I truly love what I do and without the support of everyone around me I wouldn't be where I am today
