What Inspired Us to Start Our Business
I loved planning parties for my children, so I combined my Corporate Event Planning background with my passion for parties and launched Parties A La Carte! I started by planning lavish social events before branching into the wedding planning industry.
What Makes Our Business Stand Out
Our clients come first. From the first meeting, throughout planning to the execution of their event, our team is there every step of the way. We realize this is one of the most important days of their lives and we strive to treat it as such! We are the first to arrive on the wedding day and the last to leave at the end of the night. Wedding and event planning is our passion and full-time commitment. A unique aspect of Parties A La Carte is our lovely studio that clients have the opportunity to host meetings at. We take a team approach to planning. Our process and is a collaboration built from years of experience, background, and creativity.
Services & Pricing
We offer three packages with Month-of Coordination starting at $2,500 to Full-Service Planning starting at $10,000.
Jessica’s career started in corporate event planning. After several years, she realized she possessed a passion for planning extravagant parties for her children. Her love of the more personal and detailed side of the business inspired her to branch into the wedding industry and launch Tampa Bay wedding and event planning business, Parties A’ La Carte.
Jessica has over fifteen years of industry experience and utilizes her knowledge and expertise to plan the perfect event for you. She takes great pleasure in providing her experience, attention to detail, and creativity to aid in crafting events. As Jessica would say, “We don’t just throw parties; we create memories.”
Creating a lifetime of memories to cherish is Parties A’ La Carte’s forte. What makes Jessica one of the most sought–after Tampa Bay wedding and event planners is her style, vision, and expertise. Her unique touch can be seen at any and every event, as she loves to think out of the box! Whether it’s for a destination wedding on a tropical island, a cozy dinner celebration for ten, or a three-day wedding weekend celebration, no event is ever considered too big or small. Jessica’s goal with Parties A’ La Carte is to create indelible memories for you to treasure for years to come.

We watched in awe as Parties A La Carte planned and executed Michael’s sister’s wedding flawlessly. Jessica Ralph and her team go above and beyond to ensure the day itself will function perfectly, and that is because of the work and dedication they put in for months leading up to the big day. At first, we were determined to do it all on our own (which is possible), but with us both working full-time, it became more stressful than we wanted.
Parties A La Carte took all of our ideas and ran with them, creating a day we never could have believed was possible. It was truly a dream come true having them as a part of our wedding!

We wanted a wedding planner who was organized, detail-oriented, and who could direct to help me make decisions. We met with Jessica Ralph, the owner of Parties A’La Carte, one time, and I knew she was the one for us! I loved the initial meeting and what she was willing to do for me so I could focus on work and my life back in CO. Jessica is fabulous! The team was simply amazing! I felt taken care of at all times leading up to the wedding, and the day would not have happened without them!

We wanted someone who was calm and knew how to take control. Wedding planning should not be a stressful process for the couple.
Jessica and the Parties A’ La Carte team made the wedding planning process easy by sticking within our budget and creating the best time for us. They made the process very simple. They ended up being our heroes during the actual event and ushered us to and from formalities so that we got all the photos we needed or did not even know we needed.
We chose Parties A La Carte because my mother-in-law had worked with this company before on previous events. We are so grateful we trusted her judgment on this because Parties A’ La Carte made the process very simple.

I wanted a wedding planner who was relatable, easy to work with, detail-oriented, and who would listen to what my inspiration was and be able to give input and enhance it.
Parties A’La Carte was a dream to work with, and they did an amazing job. From start to finish, it was perfect, thanks to them. They made the whole planning process through execution easy and stress-free.

“I wanted someone with experience and who understood my vision. As soon as I met with Jessica of Parties A’La Carte I knew she would be perfect because she had experience, and I could tell she could handle an extravagant wedding.”

“Honestly, I could kick myself in the butt for not hiring a wedding planner. So many people told me not to waste my money, that I could just do it by myself. So, I did. Big mistake! I needed someone to take my vision and execute it, and Parties a la Carte nailed it. They were worth every dollar spent. I had a few items remaining, some that I didn’t even know I needed, and the owner, Jessica, was literally able to solve all of it in one day with her contacts! My wedding threw Jessica and team many curve balls, and she caught them all.”
