Ann Marie is an exceptional event orchestrator. I've been with Kehoe Designs for 20 years designing luxury events and weddings with her, and in that time, I've not come across another person that is as professional, exquisitely organized, and talented as a manager of details as she is. If you are looking for someone to work with that will be an advocate for you but will also "handle it" when it comes to your event or wedding, I urge you not to look further. In my opinion, the goal of a wedding or event planner is to navigate you through all the tough decisions and make your life easier. Ann Marie will do that for you in spades.

Our wedding planner was stuck out of town the whole weekend of our wedding and we didn’t have anyone to coordinate the wedding day things we needed done. Brooke stepped in and made herself available to coordinate the bridesmaids and groomsmen, organized the photographers, and other people who were working to help us for our special day. She made it look so easy and we were relaxed knowing it was taken care of.

Lakemoor, IL
  • Offers 5 services

I am a certified wedding planner with a passion for learning. It all started over 10 years ago when I worked as a birthday party host at a park district, eventually expanding to fundraising events, showers, and weddings. My passion for weddings and events grew, and I began helping friends and family with their weddings. Now, I run my own business! There is nothing I love more than seeing an idea come to life! When I'm not planning weddings, you'll find me cuddling with my baby, enjoying the show Friends under a cozy blanket, or sharing a meal with a glass (or two) of wine with my husband. I'd love to chat and learn more about you!

Becca was an amazing support throughout our wedding planning journey. She was always available to answer our questions and guide us through the process of planning our wedding. Her experience and wedding planner binder helped us stay organized and on track. She gave us valuable advice on how to make our wedding day even more special with meaningful decorations, music, drinks, and vendors. We are so grateful for Yes To I Do and couldn't have done it without their help!

Like any Virgo, I am always ready to plan and organize myself, especially on a super special day. I will tell you, Blair fit into my life like a glove. She helped me through a COVID wedding and became the reassurance that I needed when we were cutting lists down and canceling things but also making sure I still had that magic I wanted when I was walking down the aisle. I often times feel like the wedding industry is quick to judge you on your choices of flowers or music, but I NEVER felt that from Blair. She is amazing and everyone should have one of her on your team.

Teyanna and Essence of Flair was truly an answer to prayer. I had a vision of what I wanted for my wedding day and she executed it perfectly. From our first meeting, she listened attentively and made sure she understood the assignment. Teyanna never tried to push her own agenda, what I wanted was always top priority. She was patient and also provided insight that helped me not only in the decor of my venue but in other areas of my wedding. Teyana was absolutely amazing. My wedding ceremony and reception were perfectly decorated and they exceeded my expectations. When I walked into the ceremony and reception area I said this is what I wanted. Teyanna held my hand through the process. If there were negative things happening, I did not know because Teyana was so in control and positive. I got so many compliments on the decor. All I can say is Essence of Flair understood my vision and followed through. Teyanna went above and beyond. I would recommend her and Essence of Flair to anyone that is planning a wedding or any special event.

I simply cannot imagine our wedding day without THEE Michelle Hamlin, an absolutely icon, speedwalking around the venue in her sparkly white shoes, making. It. All. Happen. If you are looking for a day/month-of coordinator or planner, or if you're on the fence wondering if you need one, I have three words for you: Go For Hamlin. She is upbeat, genuine, passionate, and fun -- but she also means business. She's both the most organized and together professional you'll ever meet AND will banter with you about Vanderpump Rules. Michelle truly truly cared about us as a couple and about helping us throw OUR own unique wedding. She's an incredibly responsive and talented communicator, which meant she became our go-to person for absolutely everything during the planning process, from big picture questions to little details we never even considered. She also connected us with some unbelievably talented and delightful other vendors. On our wedding day, she giggled with me as I took photos in the hotel, then buzzed over to the venue where she flawlessly executed the whole event EXACTLY on time with a sense of joy. When required to think on her feet (which is inevitable), she never missed a beat or broke a bead of sweat. What resulted was a wedding day that was even more perfect than we could ever dream up. I truly mean it when I say I have no idea how we'd have done it without her. We love Michelle Hamlin!!!

Rojin is the best, we were so lucky to have her help with planning our wedding in July 2022. She went above and beyond to help us have our dream wedding.

From the jump I wanted to take on planning myself. I had lots of ideas, however, I struggled to execute my vision. About four months before the wedding, I realized I was in over my head and fortunately, I found Alex. Shortly after our first meeting I knew she was exactly who and what I needed to pull off the wedding of my dreams. Alex instantly minimized my anxiety with her calm demeanor and high level of organization. We honed in on what was left to do, made a list, and Alex went to work. Every other week we met to discuss the remaining task list, updates and changes. She was patient even through moments of indecision. Each meeting I grew more excited for the big day. The day of the wedding, Alex was on top of everything and made the whole day flow seamlessly. I love her passion for organization and coordinating, executing tasks and vendor collaboration with excellence and professionalism. She consistently exceeded my expectations throughout the process of planning by being organized, accessible, attentive to detail and truly bringing my visions to life. Alex is a multi-tasking pro, wearing many hats during this process, including therapist (LOL). She was an AMAZING planner and I’m happy to now call her a friend. If you are a bride-to-be, I encourage you to consider Alex. She is versatile and offers everything from full planning, to month or day-of event coordination. Alex is your girl!!

We were born from lessons learned by tackling the most important wedding to date; my own. A planner to my core, I never considered the need for assistance when planning and executing my wedding. And while I threw a truly great party, it came at the expense of me enjoying my own wedding. I took away from the experience the hard truth that just because I could, didn’t mean I should, and have turned that into something that I truly love; watching other couples bask in their moment, stress-free. We offer a variety of wedding and honeymoon services with the simple mission of creating beautiful, unique events that feel as good as they look.

Lisa was a godsend for my wedding. A lot of planners I had consulted with were a little antiquated and wanted to force their vision upon me. I had already secured a handful of major items for my wedding: venue, food, music, photographer. Lisa was so helpful as she provides a new fresh prospective to planning and executing - conscious of both style and budget. She's highly adept at being both extremely down to earth and approachable yet highly professional when dealing with difficult vendors. In the end, Lisa helped me finalize all of the nitty gritty details for the wedding weekend and executed everything flawlessly. I'd highly recommend her services and support for your planning needs!

Let's face it, events are stressful. You plan for months and it all comes down to (what feels like) a few moments. There are vendors to meet, venues to research, staff or volunteers to coordinate, and favors to place on everyone's seat. Whether it's your wedding, anniversary, business retreat, or corporate meeting, we work with you to make your vision a reality for your events!

Chelsea helped me plan and throw a Morocco-themed graduation party with 75 attendees, and I honestly don’t think I could have done it without her. I am really good at having ideas, but less good at execution as I get overwhelmed. Chelsea helped me find a location and vendors, as well as designing the decorations. Chelsea was chill and friendly while still executing to perfection. 10/10 would hire again!

Additionally, I cannot understate the value of having a wedding planner, who is organized, proactive, pays attention to detail, and he shows up to work prepared and on time. When we had regular check-ins, he was prepared with a PowerPoint presentation that gave all of the options around design ideas. The day of the wedding was executed flawlessly!! I’ve had several people reach out to me for his contact information to organize events because my guests were thoroughly impressed. I consider myself a person who could be very hard to please, Franklin left me in awe and speechless at the incredible work, He and his ENTIRE team did for our wedding.

Kristin with Besher Events was our full service wedding planner for our wedding. We cannot recommend her enough. She was there from the start to go on a venue tour and helped us to envision our wedding day at our venue during that time. Kristin was prompt with responses and handled all of our vendors with professionalism. Kristin kept us on track throughout the year of planning for our wedding. Kristin is very thorough, detailed, and organized. On our wedding day, Kristin was there bright an early and began setting up the venue. She had a detailed schedule for all vendors. Our venue couldn’t have looked more beautiful due to Kristin’s eye for detail. The day ran so smooth and on time with no hiccups. We would recommend Besher Events for event. We cannot thank you enough for making our dream turn into a reality and making us so speechless with how it turned out!

Working out of Lombard, IL, I am a type A planner from the very center of my heart. I love lists, schedules, budgets, and all things organized. Weddings are my passion because they involve so much coordinated detail in every phase of the day from start to finish. I love to see my client's vision for their special day come together with every check off the to do list. I have been coordinating weddings since early 2018, but have been networking in the industry for several years now. I love working with all of the gorgeous venues we have here in the suburbs of Chicago and can't wait to get started planning your dream wedding.

Bre was our coordinator for our April 2024 wedding. The big reason we chose her was because during our initial call, we felt that she was very personable, knowledgeable, and just overall so passionate about wedding planning. We basically planned a wedding in four months and Bre was there if I ever had questions in the planning process, she coordinated the timeline and sent to vendors, and executed everything perfectly the day of. Not to mention, helped clean up our decor so we had nothing to worry about after enjoying our reception. I truly believe she was a huge reason as to why I wasn't stressed on my wedding day!! One of the best decisions we made was hiring Bre!!

Planning Weddings That Are Perfectly You You finally found the one you can’t live without. And your love? It’s one of a kind. Your wedding should be, too. That’s why you can’t waste your precious engagement planning a Pinterest wedding or following a cookie-cutter wedding template. Your love story deserves to be told in a unique, tailored-to-you, one-in-a-million way. It should be a day that illustrates your individual personalities and shows your guests what kind of life you’ll build together. It should be elegant and sophisticated — just like you.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was that person that did not think I needed a wedding planner! I decided last minute I needed one and I had interviewed 4 people and Christena was the only one that made me feel comfortable! Christena helped keep me organized, in control, and confident that I would be able to get through this! She brought things to my attention that I had no clue I needed to do. During the rehearsal dinner she got everyone in line and made sure everyone knew exactly what they were doing. The day of the wedding Christena and her assistant Jill knew literally handled everything from making sure my vision was brought to life, to making sure everything ran accordingly to plan, and making sure all items that were mine were organized and set aside for my family to gather at the end of the night. I cannot sing Christena’s praises enough! You are getting more than a wedding planner with her! If you are on the fence about this do not be, it is the best money well spent!!!

Fierce Productions is a wedding planning and event production company that specializes in creating unique, unforgettable experiences in Chicago, Miami and beyond. We are a team made up of creative people who are skilled in the art of event planning and design. We are always looking for ways to think outside the box and do the unexpected. Fierce Productions was founded in 2015 by Laura Reitsma, proud Cuban-American Owner. Laura dreamt of creating an event production company that was fueled by her love of the theater. She wanted to make an impact and start a business that could give back to LGBTQIAP and theater communities.

It's hard to put to words how much we appreciate Laura and the Fierce team, so we'll just share the text we sent Laura the day after our wedding: "Laura, it feels like the most common piece of advice people give about weddings is that, 'something will go wrong, just expect that'. However, you delivered a perfect wedding. We wouldn’t have changed a single thing. What you accomplished was absolutely extraordinary. Complete magic. We thought we knew exactly what to expect, but it was so much more than we dreamed of. We are so proud of what we created with you. It left guests feeling so grateful to have experienced something so unique and loving. They’re saying it was the coolest experience and best party they’ve ever been to." A few other highlights of working with Laura and the Fierce Team: - She doesn't just see it as her job to plan the wedding; she sees it as her job to allow you to be present during the big day. Many say "it all went so fast," when remembering their wedding, but it didn't feel like that for us because Laura made sure we could be present. - She respected our vision like it was her own and protected every piece of it. - By the time the wedding arrived, she was our friend--not a vendor. And that made the experience that day even cooler. Imagine having your friend send you down the aisle...rather than someone your hired. We would hire Fierce a million times over.

We support our clients’ desired goals in ways that make the most sense for each creative vision. We focus on managing all the logistical details – timelines, contract reviews, set up – to ensure nothing falls through the cracks on your big day.

Colleen Fahy was our coordinator, and she was absolutely incredible. Her guidance, her input, her sweet personality, her organizational skills, her foresight, her patience, her flexibility, her thoughtfulness, her ability to put us at ease… all made her so wonderful to work with. I didn’t worry about a single thing on wedding day, because I truly trusted that Colleen had helped us prepare so well, and that anything that would come up she would handle. And she sure did!! Colleen handled a lot of issues that arose on wedding day without us knowing!! She handled all communication with our vendors leading up to the wedding which was a HUGE burden off of our shoulders. Colleen spared us a lot of stress, and we’re so grateful that she allowed us to be in the moment and enjoy every minute of the day. So many people in my bridal party / other guests at the wedding mentioned how amazing Colleen was!! The bridal party / other VIP's LOVED the detailed timeline/itinerary that Colleen prepared and distributed prior to the wedding. People knew where to be and when, and didn't have to reach out to me with small questions as a result. People around us noticed and appreciated all that she and her team did, and we certainly did, too. AND, Colleen did it all with a calming presence and a smile on her face. We were so impressed. Colleen and Joan humored my many overly detailed questions, requests, anxieties, etc.! I honestly felt like nothing slipped through the cracks on our wedding weekend because Colleen and her team were there to catch it all. She remembered and honored everything we mentioned to her over the past few months (which was A LOT!)! We could go on and on... 100% recommend Five Grain Events and Colleen Fahy was an absolute GEM.

Veronica is truly the best wedding coordinator out there. She and her team went above and beyond and my wedding day was absolutely perfect!! Veronica was involved with the wedding planning months beforehand (unlike most wedding coordinators I spoke to!) and she was so detailed and organized that she truly put my type-A personality at ease!!! I knew I was in the best of hands after our first conversation and on the wedding day I was completely relaxed because I knew I could trust her to handle any hiccups. She also did my floral arrangements and was present at all the meetings with the venue and caterer to make sure that everyone was aligned on my vision. When she showed me the reception hall before my guests arrived it took my breath away-- it was even better than I envisioned!!! Her eye for detail is incredible and my reception decorations were breathtaking. I also have to acknowledge Veronica's assistant Sharae because she too was the best ever-- I definitely walked away from my wedding weekend with a new best friend. Sharae kept me calm and laughing on my wedding day and made the entire pre-ceremony experience SO MUCH FUN!!! Honestly, my wedding day would have felt much different if Sharae wasn't there. I actually got emotional saying goodbye because she was such an important part of my day too. I never thought I would grow so close to a wedding vendor, but I now consider Veronica, Sharae, and the entire Exquisitely Designed Events team like family.

Whether it was a formal planning call or a quick text question, we always felt heard and understood. Jaime did a beautiful job turning our vision into a reality, and helped us keep in budget while focusing on the most important parts of our day. Not only did we use her as our planning coach, but we also asked her to photograph our Ketubah signing the night before, and the photos are beautiful. Her ability to manage vendors, keep others accountable, and maintain her smile is a skill I continually admire. Many folks were asking us after our weekend who our planner was (and if she was available) and we cannot sing her praises enough.

Trust us to handle all the coordination and planning services, ensuring a seamless and unforgettable wedding experience for you.

April was FANTASTIC!! I was unsure whether or not I wanted a coordinator- I had a hard time “giving up” control of my big day. When I first spoke with April- I knew that she was THE ONE! Kind, patient, understanding, and also a little bit of a perfectionist. ;) I hired April as “Day of Coordinator” only. April took everything I gave her on my wedding day and ran with it. She took my planning binder and I said “Good Luck!” She made it all happen! She quickly and effortlessly made my dream wedding perfect. She helped with decor, setting up, getting my dress on, helping me use the bathroom, putting my shoes on… anything you could think of!! And the professionalism and kindness was next level! A few days/weeks later, my bridesmaids told me about little fires that April put out that I had no idea about- problems with the DJ, the groomsmen trying to get drunk before walking down the aisle (April stopped them), and our Happily Ever After sign that kept falling. She handled all of this without me even knowing! The best decision I made (besides who to marry) on the day of my wedding was hiring April!! You won’t regret it!!

From large-scale events to intimate celebrations, weddings rich in cultural traditions, or laid-back gatherings, we know how to adapt our skills to meet every client's needs.

Awarded Best of Zola
One of the first questions Bristol asked us was what we didn't like about the wedding planning process and the day of activities/schedule. That question revealed so much about Bristol's professionalism, thoughtfulness, genuine curiosity, attentiveness and detailed approach to event planning. We knew we wanted to hire her as our day-of coordinator. Beyond that, when we explained our needs and vision to Bristol, she was up for the challenge. It required communication and coordination across multiple locations and multi-faceted logistics, which were all executed beautifully. Secondly, the team knew several of our sustainability-minded vendors, which was a huge plus for us, as it made coordination and communication easier. Even without those connections, the detailed documents provided helped us stay organized while giving the team the info they needed to ensure everything ran smoothly. We appreciated Bristol's professionalism, creativity, flexibility and support throughout our wedding planning process. Her company's values aligned with ours, which we wanted to display through the various elements of our wedding. She brought it all to fruition and understood exactly where we were coming from. Bristol helped us solidify the vision and execution of our "playful elegance" theme, gave her honest and expert opinion when solicited, ran on schedule, and picked up, set up, and packed up all of the decor items we had. The team even sent us some of the photos they took of our venue and wedding day details, which was a sweet and memorable touch. We felt completely free to enjoy our wedding reception and are so glad we selected Sustainable Soirees. We would absolutely hire Bristol for future events and couldn't recommend Sustainable Soirees enough -- especially for those who care about the sustainability of their event.
