Capstone Occasions

  • Serves Apple River, IL

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.

One year later, my husband and I still find ourselves smiling every time we talk about our wedding day. It truly was the night of our lives — a dream we had envisioned for so long — and every single detail turned out exactly how we imagined it. And that’s entirely thanks to Tia. From the very first conversation, she made me feel at ease. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but with Tia, it never felt that way. She listened to every vision I described, every tiny wish I had, and somehow managed to take it all and make it even better. She was more than just a planner; she was a steady hand, a problem-solver, and a calming presence through the entire journey. There are moments from that day I will never forget — moments that perfectly capture why Tia is so incredible at what she does. Like when my welcome sign stand completely failed, and without hesitation, she pulled out her own stand that she had brought “just in case.” Or when the men’s boutonnieres went missing and, instead of stressing, she quickly and beautifully made five new ones right there on the spot. She’s the type of person who always has a plan B… and C… and D. On the wedding day, I remember glancing around and seeing her quietly making sure the venue was perfect — the tables were flawless, the DJ was ready, the photographer and videographer were in position to catch our most precious moments. She orchestrated the day so seamlessly that my husband and I were able to simply be present, soaking in every laugh, every tear, and every dance without a single worry. By the end of the night, we looked at each other and realized it had been perfect. Not “perfect” in the way people say just to be polite, but truly, deeply perfect — the kind of perfect that will stay in your heart for the rest of your life. Tia didn’t just plan our wedding; she created the space for us to live in the moment and make memories that we’ll cherish forever. Her preparation, creativity, and genuine care for her couples set her apart from anyone else I’ve ever worked with. If you want a wedding planner who will go above and beyond in ways you can’t even imagine, who will anticipate your needs before you know them yourself, and who will put her heart into making your day as magical as it can be — you need Tia. She made our dream a reality, and we are forever grateful.

Hiring Bailee was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding at Pazzo’s in Chicago. From the moment she arrived that morning, she brought such calm, positive energy that instantly made me feel at ease. She stepped right in and took complete control of the day in the most effortless way, making sure every single detail came together perfectly. Bailee managed all of our vendors with such professionalism and grace. When a few unexpected hiccups happened throughout the day, she handled each one so quickly and quietly that I didn’t even know there were any issues until after the wedding was over. She communicated with everyone clearly, kept us on schedule, and problem-solved with such calm confidence that it felt like everything just flowed naturally. She made sure our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception transitions were seamless and not once did I feel rushed or stressed. She also went above and beyond in the little ways that made such a difference. She checked in on me constantly, helped bustle my dress, fluffed my veil before walking down the aisle, made sure our décor looked exactly how I envisioned it, and even gathered all of our personal items at the end of the night so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. She truly treated our wedding as if it were her own. Because of Bailee, we were able to be completely present and enjoy every single moment of our day. I didn’t have to worry about timelines, vendor arrivals, or any of the behind-the-scenes chaos that comes with a wedding. I just got to soak in every second, knowing she had everything under control. If you’re getting married in Chicago (or anywhere, honestly), do yourself the biggest favor and hire Bailee. She’s organized, kind, calm under pressure, and has such an incredible eye for detail. Our wedding day was a dream come true, and she played a huge part in making that happen. We’ll be forever grateful for her!

We truly had the most incredible experience with our planner, Kay. She stepped in two months out from our wedding and took over every piece of communication, coordinated everything behind the scenes, and ensured that everything was 100% ready before our wedding day. On our wedding weekend she was absolutely incredible. She was so thorough and efficient in coordinating each piece of our day. She was so patient and understanding and handled things head on as they happened. She made sure everything went perfectly to plan and our timelines were executed perfectly. She also is the sweetest human and is so easy to talk to, she makes everyone feel super comfortable. She not only coordinated our entire day but also took so many behind the scene photos for us on our wedding day which were so fun to look at the next day. She can truly do it all! We would absolutely recommend hiring Simply Elegant Group for your wedding planning!

Where to begin with how much Dusti made our wedding day and made our vision come to life. When I told her that I was envisioning a lot of greenery like when we hiked in Olympic National Park in Washington and a Lord of the Rings essence she knew exactly what I was talking about! She made communication easy and personable with videos chats online if we could not meet in person. She made a mood board that was very detailed to make sure we were on the same page which was extremely helpful. She had items we could rent and also helped guide us on what to purchase. My bouquet and my bridesmaids bouquets she made me instantly brought me to tears they were so beautiful. Honestly everything she made was so unique and special which was exactly what we were looking for. We wish we found her sooner in our wedding planning because she is incredible! The amount of stress she took off our shoulders was immense. She reached out to all the vendors to relay the timeline, she set up all the decorations for the ceremony site and took those down to bring to the reception site. Also decorated the reception site, set up the memorial table, guest book and gift table....then took down the decorations at the end of the reception and made sure they got to a safe place with our family or us. She set up our rented photobooth which is above and beyond what she had to do (packed that up as well) . Also, shout out to her assistant that day Samantha who is pregnant. Thank you!! Overall, I highly recommend Dusti. She was constantly in communication and made sure we could always reach her every step of the way. She is so incredibly talented, completely professional and her creativity and diligence did not go unnoticed. I can't thank her enough for making our wedding day so special.

Kim calls herself an honorary bridesmaid but she is so much more. She is a florist, a seamstress, a miracle worker and a friend to everyone she meets. I had a vision for my wedding day and Kim executed it flawlessly. She not only made the day run smoothly, but set up all of my favors, stationery and even the bud vases she made exactly how I pictured it! We had some fashion emergencies and Kim literally saved the day by sowing on straps to make a dress that wouldn’t zip finally close. I cannot rave about Kim enough!! We got endless compliments about our day and it would have been impossible without her. Kim is worth every single penny and then some.

There are NO WORDS to describe how amazing Redwood Weddings was to work with leading up to our wedding. Alex was incredibly helpful during the planning process in answering my random questions and giving advice. Our lead coordinator, Katie, who I called my "emotional support animal" lead us through the final 3 months of planning with ease, to ensure that our day was executed flawlessly with our experience as well as the guest logistics/experience in mind. On the wedding day, she was worth her weight in gold- she made my vision come to life, ensured that I was stress-free all day, and was such a kind and calming presence that even my family members took note on how amazing she was! I would recommend Redwood Weddings to everyone and my dream wedding would have never been possible without them throughout the whole process. I cannot say enough good things about these amazing ladies. Book them, you won't regret it!!!

Leading up to the wedding, she was super easy to communicate with and always quick to respond. She was so patient and helpful every single time, and I always felt like she genuinely cared and wanted to help however she could. She also worked with our budget and was very reasonable and flexible, which we really appreciated. On the wedding day, Kara was calm, organized, and made sure everything ran smoothly. We didn’t have to stress about anything, which made such a huge difference—we were actually able to relax and truly enjoy the day. Multiple people commented afterward on how calm I was and how beautiful the wedding was (and that I was not a bridezilla at all ). I truly believe that peace came from God—He gave both me and my husband such a sense of calm that day. And honestly, Kara felt like such a Godsend in that process. Knowing she had everything handled behind the scenes made it so easy to just be present and soak it all in. Hiring Kara was easily one of the best decisions we made.

Lauren was friendly, meticulous, detail-oriented, and ultimately a pleasure to work with. I am a photographer and spend the entire day with the wedding couple and it was so great to see the bride not have to worry about a thing the day of because she knew Lauren had it handled already. I have also attended a styled wedding photoshoot that Lauren and Mercedes hosted this year and that was also amazing! I was blown away by the details and overall theme to it and it made for some fantastic photos to add to my portfolio. Whenever I see a wedding couple looking for a planner or day or coordinator, I always recommend Elizabeth Bliss Events!

Your wedding coordinator is one of the most important vendor decisions you’ll make, and I am so grateful we chose Rob. Throughout the entire planning process, he was accessible, knowledgeable, and incredibly kind. On the wedding day, Rob and his team were efficient, reliable, and handled everything from setup to tear-down. They were so seamless that we truly didn’t have to worry about a thing. I was especially nervous about the décor, and I was blown away by how beautifully Rob brought everything together. He created a dreamy, romantic space that felt even better than what I had imagined. We are so grateful to Rob for helping make our wedding day absolutely perfect.
