For our Brooklyn wedding we worked with Natalie, and she was absolutely amazing! She took care of everything, and made sure that the whole event flowed nicely. Her weekly check ins were meaningful, and day of she took the reigns and I didn't have to give anything a second thought. It was truly so wonderful working with her! xoxo Michelle and Nick

We recently got married and I can honestly say that if it wasn't for Jennifer we would not have had the beautiful wedding we did. Our venue (Hairpin Arts Center) was an absolute nightmare to work with - they have no event coordinating experience and zero professionalism. Despite this, Jennifer took everything in stride, always the calming presence that we needed, and ultimately pulled off an amazing event despite all the hurdles. We only had the day-of coordinator package, but Jennifer definitely went above and beyond what was outlined. We are very grateful and 1000% recommend Jennifer for all of your wedding planning needs.

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!

As a wedding officiant, I have the opportunity to work with wedding planners and day-of coordinators, observing how they manage multiple last-minute details on the day of the wedding. I recently had the absolute pleasure of working alongside Becca from Yes to I Do! Not only was she incredibly organized, ensuring that every detail was executed flawlessly, but her personable and professional approach allowed me to focus solely on officiating. Her commitment to creating a beautiful experience for everyone involved truly stood out. I highly recommend Becca and Yes to I Do!

Awarded Best of Zola
Jojo is such an amazing person to work with. Wanted to have a wedding of about 150 people in the Chicago Metropolitan area and a budget of 22,000 USD (just wanna say that keeping to the budget was my main goal). This can be typically difficult given the cost of venues and things in the Chicago area. Jojo helped find a glamorous ball-style venue (my preference) that also had an outside lake as a great view for the ceremony. The venue also catered to most of the other needs at a reasonable price. Furthermore, we met regularly with Jojo to go over what our expectations of each vendor would be, and with a great understanding of what we wanted, she was resourceful in getting the appropriate vendors and negotiating a good price with them. She made sure that within the short period of planning (we contacted her about 4 months before the wedding), every step of the plan towards the wedding day was carried out in a timely manner with nothing left unattended to... I mean nothing (including what was needed for the traditional wedding given we are Nigerians). On the day of the wedding, she drew up a great timeline and went above and beyond to ensure all went according to plan timely and we were not stressed out. It was such a good and memorable event that we received numerous compliments on it. With her being very affordable for the service she gives and she being intentionally involved in everything, we definitely kept to budget and had better than the wedding we had hoped for. She was on top of her game from A to Z. She isn't only an event planner to us but is also a friend. I thank God for you Jojo and for all you did. These few words cannot fully explain how excellent you are in what you do.

Our wedding could not have been successful without the guidance, coordination, and quick thinking work from Kim and Honorary Bridesmaid. Kim worked diligently to understand our vision, built a robust and clear timeline, and was the best communicator when it came to answering our questions! Kim is warm, understanding, and willing to entertain tangents about seating charts, place settings, and decor - then she'll go out and execute them perfectly. Kim not only brought all of our visions to life - she welcomed and guided guests, helped vendors with designs and access, and handled concerns & mishaps with so much grace we didn't find out about them until the day after the wedding. Our day was flawless and Kim was our constant cheerleader, supporting and holding our wants and wishes above all else.

We loved working with the wedding planner Sara from Monarch. Planning the wedding was so stressful until we started working with Sara and would recommend her to anyone. She’s easy to talk to and helped guide us when making difficult planning decisions. Sara also had her work cut out for her when about a month before our wedding the contact at our wedding venue left. Sara was able to help carry over all of our wedding details to the new contact. She also coordinated all of the logistics I didn’t even think of (like walkthroughs with vendors for example). On wedding day, Sara and assistant, Kayla, made sure we stayed on track with our timeline so my husband and I could enjoy the day. Thank you Sara and Kayla for making our wedding so memorable!

I cannot say enough incredible things about Erin. Above and beyond does not begin to cover it! Look no further for any of your wedding planning needs. We hired Erin for our month of coordinator almost 2 years in advance. From the beginning, she was very responsive, informative, kind, and helpful. I am pretty organized, and she consistently thought of questions I didn't! I was very impressed with her demeanor with myself and the rest of our vendors. Our venue required a pre-approved coordinator, and Erin took the steps to contact them to make sure she would work out, and we are so glad she did! She did everything she said she would and then some. She reached out to all of our vendors, worked with us on our timeline (many times!), attended our rehearsal, and never got frustrated even when we had a lot going on. Erin felt more like a friend than a coordinator, and we are so happy we got to spend our special day with her. Our day went so smoothly from start to finish, and we know this is due to Erin's impeccable attention to detail. If you are looking to have an incredible day with a crisp timeline and no stress - Erin is your gal!

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.

Lindsay not only plans weddings for our Simply Elegant couples but also trains our entire team of planners to ensure that every Simply Elegant wedding is flawless and our client's vision is fulfilled.

Neither my husband nor I had been in a wedding, so we had no idea what we were doing when we began planning. We hired SEG for full-service planning, and we were so impressed by the time and resources made available to us. Our planner, Hanh, was so organized and attentive throughout the process. She was able to provide us with so many ideas to make our vision come true, and she knew to ask the vendors questions we never would have even thought of. She even went above and beyond on the day of, in ways such as helping bustle my dress which my mom and I couldn't figure out. The wedding workbook, especially the checklist organized by time out from the wedding, was so helpful in giving us a visual representation of everything we needed to do. Overall, hiring SEG full-service was well worth the money, and we highly recommend them for anyone who doesn't have the time or experience to plan their wedding themselves!

Without Laury’s help, our wedding day would have been a lot more work. She was our teammate and cheerleader from the first day we chatted with her. I couldn’t have asked for a more supportive team to guide me through my wedding day. Laury and Kiley ensured that every single detail was to my liking. They set up, cleaned up and coordinated the entire day. Laury was patient and kind - always there when we needed her. Honestly, we never needed her because she had already thought ahead and prevented any possible issues. The wedding ran ahead of schedule because of her execution. I couldn’t be more pleased with the ladies at Little Sparrow Events. Laury is truly a one-of-a-kind.

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!!

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!

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.

After some careful contemplating, I decided to hire a Day-of Coordinator for my wedding day. I was nervous to give up the reins after all of the pre-planning work I did. I'm (admittedly) a control freak and really wanted our big day to go as well as possible and stay within budget. It's also not easy for me to ask for help. A friend recommended Bisoux Event Co. to help me and Lisa was my Coordinator. She was kind, professional and handled many moving parts with aplomb and poise. After speaking with her for the first time, I knew she was exactly what I needed so I could relax, give my phone to my MOH and enjoy the day. When things had to change on the fly, (they will, they always do) she made audible decisions that were thoughtful and practical. If you are a control freak like me, do yourself a favor and hire Bisoux for your big day- You'll be grateful for the help!

I 100% recommend Sarah! My biggest regret of my wedding was not finding and hiring her sooner! During our consultation (and every call or text afterwards) I felt like I was talking to a friend. You can tell she truly loves what she does. She took SO much stress off me and my family. She created our day of plan, set up the decor, took it down, brought gifts to our car, was the main contact for vendors and so much more. Even my dad who is a money pincher said he was really glad we had her the day of. She also helped direct our rehearsal. Having a huge party that really helped! Seriously hire her ASAP! I’ve told everyone I’ve talked to about the wedding how amazing she is and I will tell my friends again once it’s their turn to get married. My family and I could enjoy ourselves the whole day because we could trust all the logistics were handled by Sarah. Best decision I made while planning. Thank you so much!!

Ok, so we weren’t actual clients, but hear me out! My niece was getting married in the same venue as her wedding. Unfortunately, my niece’s wedding coordinator didn’t show up. Candice had a few quick moments while waiting for her wedding party to go inside and noticed a couple details that were off. She took a brief second to make a suggestion and fix my niece’s dress before she walked down the aisle. You can tell craft is her passion! She didn’t take any attention from her bride, in fact, I’m sure without this review the bride would have never known. However, when something is your passion you enjoy what you do and share your heart when you need to. I just wanted to say a quick THANK YOU for those few fleeting moments of assistance.

A friend of mine recommended Besher Events after she heard that I got engaged. At first, I wasn't sure if I wanted to hire a wedding planner but I ended up deciding to do it in order to help things run smoothly and I am SO glad I did! Kristin kept me on track throughout the entire process and helped with everything from finding vendors in my budget, to planning the aesthetics of the wedding, to having meetings with vendors, and even helped us plan/choreograph our surprise first dance! It was a total hit with our guests and set the tone for a full dance floor all night long. Kristin knows what she's doing when it comes to the wedding planning process and dealing with vendors. If you're considering hiring her for your wedding - DO IT!

Hi! I'm Tia - Mom of 5 kids, 2 dogs and wife to the most supportive and amazing husband there is. In fact, you will often times find him carrying boxes, straightening linens, or even officiating from time to time. I started Capstone Occasions (aka-my crowning achievement) to help elevate your events to the top of your expectations. It could be a simple intimate affair to the grandest of parties, but whatever you are envisioning, it is my plan to execute it with every bit of intention and emotion that you have for it yourself.

Awarded Best of Zola
Tia is INCREDIBLE! Hiring Tia was hands down the best decision we made in our wedding planning, and we can’t imagine our wedding without her. Tia planned our friends’ wedding a few years ago, and I was so impressed with her eye for design and how attentive she was to every detail – not to mention that teardown at the end of the night was lightning fast! She orchestrated everything expertly, her team is very efficient, and as members of the wedding party, we didn’t have to worry about anything – we were able to just have fun! When we began planning our own wedding, our number one goal was ease – for ourselves and our family and friends. We didn’t want our loved ones (or us!) to have the stress of arranging and decorating the venue the day of the wedding. We trusted Tia completely to manage the day with care and she knocked it out of the park!! During the planning process, Tia was very easy to work with – she is incredibly organized, a great communicator, very responsive, and multiple vendors commented on how much they enjoyed working with her too. While we were balancing demands from work and home, she kept us on track with planning in a kind way and made it easy for us to know what to focus on next. On the day of our wedding, Tia made sure that everything went off as planned – or even better! It was such a gift to walk into the wedding venue and have every careful detail be executed better than I could have envisioned. Because of her, we were able to be fully present throughout our wedding day with our family and friends, knowing that she and the Capstone Occasions team had everything handled. Our wedding was an absolute dream, and Tia was such a big part of that – we are so grateful!

Franklin went above and beyond and I’d give him more than 5 stars if I could! He was there for us not just the “day of,” but a full month prior to our wedding. He delivered much more value than what we’d expected when we signed with him. He struck just the right balance between professionalism and being friendly. He came off has professional and gave us confidence from the start that he would get the job done well, but we also appreciated that we could laugh together and that he felt like a friend. I think he’s good at reading couples and likely calibrates his approach based on the couple’s comfort level; he did so perfectly with us! Franklin’s excellent communication skills made the whole process that much easier. He made sure he captured every detail that was important to the success of our wedding (or just important to us) in a definitive document that became the gold standard for the day’s plan. Collecting this information, compiling it, adding some most-welcome suggestions, and making sure all the vendors were on the same page were instrumental to everything running smoothly and exceeded our expectations. This is where he shined most brightly and we could clearly see him dedicating time and energy to our event a full month prior to the big day. The basic requirement of a day-of coordinator is that they keep the day running smoothly. Franklin did everything humanly possible to achieve that. But moreover, he was generous with his ideas and really enhanced what we were planning. We set out to plan an original, somewhat untraditional event and he served as a great counselor, leading us away from potential pitfalls and toward ideas that wouldn’t have occurred to us otherwise. Highly recommend!

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.

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.

Alliyah and her assistant went above and beyond for our wedding! I can't imagine not having Brick and Roses present for both our rehearsal dinner and wedding day. She was very professional and efficient. She was super knowledgeable and able to handle difficult family dynamics! She is great with change and will make sure that you get the wedding that YOU WANT!

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. They truly made my wedding the best day ever!!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Bristol was an incredible partner for us during the planning and execution of our wedding. She and her team worked hard to make sure the process was as painless as possible while keeping us on-track and realistic. We particularly appreciated her design plan, which wound up influencing a wide variety of thematic elements and giving our concept some much-needed clarity. She also helped us locate several of our amazing (and eco-conscious) vendors, some of whom we wouldn't have otherwise even known about. Maybe most meaningfully, we appreciated her willingness to jump in and help us catch up. As a queer couple, neither of us had been planning our wedding since childhood and there was a lot we didn't know. Her Chicago wedding expertise and experience were invaluable to us. A not insubstantial number of our guests said ours was one of the best weddings they'd ever attended, and we'd have to agree. Bristol gets the lion's share of the credit for that.
