Meet Britta

I’m Britta, the owner and creative force behind Jackson Manor and Britta’s Brides. I grew up in Edmonds, Washington, and my love for beautiful spaces and meaningful celebrations began early—first sparked during a childhood visit to the Palace of Versailles. That sense of wonder has stayed with me, evolving into a career where I now design weddings that feel intentional, elevated, and deeply personal.

After years of building my business from the ground up, I left my 9-to-5 to pursue this full-time—turning a long-held dream into reality. I’m soon to be celebrating my 10-year wedding anniversary with my husband, Joel, who leads our catering company, and together we’re raising our two daughters. We’re also a Disney-loving family at heart, which means I truly believe in the magic of a well-told love story—something I bring into every wedding I help create. The result is an experience that feels seamless, thoughtful, and unforgettable from beginning to end.

What Clients are Saying

The perfect venue, and the best owners!! Working with Britta was truly one of the highlights of vow celebration planning – she was so quick with communication, friendly, professional, and extremely knowledgeable and skilled in the wedding industry. And the sweetest person!!

From answering my many questions throughout the months leading up, and to all the small details she took care of on the day itself, she was amazing. I’m genuinely sad to not be working with her anymore! She makes you feel like a friend, and you can fully trust in her to make the day run smoothly.

The upgrades they have done to the venue are also incredible. It was beautiful when we first toured, and every time we visited after it was even more stunning! Every little details of the layout is thoughtful and gorgeous – from the different flowers in bloom to the pathway from the bridal suite to the aisle, and the stunning fountain feature. You feel transported into a European garden that is the definition of elegance and timeless classic.

Julia

I could not sing higher praises for this venue and Britta, the venue owner. She was beyond helpful every day leading up to the wedding so we never had to worry about what the venue would look like, accommodations that would need to be made, etc. All of our guests had the best time and were constantly commenting on the beauty of the venue. Thank you, Britta, and the whole Jackson family for allowing us to have the BEST day! An extra special thanks to Joel Twist Catering. The food was 10/10 and our guests are still talking about the cocktail hour mashed potato bar.
Nina

Choosing the all inclusive package at Jackson Manor was by far the best decision we made for our wedding. The venue is beautiful to start, but Britta and her team did a wonderful job of including decor and details I didn’t even know I would love so much. The flower arrangements were perfect, exactly what I wanted. The food by Twist Catering was delicious (shout out Joel and team); we had people telling us for weeks how much they enjoyed the food. Every single vendor included from hair and makeup to DJ and photography were just absolutely incredible. We really couldn’t have pieced together a better day.

Britta herself also saved the day multiple times when my dress bustle wouldn’t stay up then finally ripped out entirely – she sewed it up for me so I could keep dancing.

Thank you so much for making our wedding day happen! It was as near perfect as you can get.
