I am a mother, wife, and business owner. I created Liza Loret Events in 2015, when I wanted to make a difference in the Wedding Industry. My first couple of years, I began to get momentum in how I wanted my business to be structured.

“From the moment we started planning our wedding, Liza Loret Events was by our side every step of the way. Her monthly check-ins helped keep us on track and her attention to detail ensured our day went off without a hitch. Liz is an absolute professional, keeping the day running smoothly and handling any issues that arose behind the scenes so we could fully enjoy our celebration. My whole family and bridal party felt so taken care of and loved by her as well. Her hard work and expertise was worth every penny - we honestly couldn't have done it without her. Best vendor decision we made for our wedding was booking with Liza Loret Events. Liz is truly the best in the business, and we are so grateful for the incredible wedding she helped us create. If she is available for your wedding date, BOOK HER NOW!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“Where to begin! Cylee was recommended to my husband and I through our amazing Dj at 3rd Shift Djs. She proved to be just as fantastic! We met with her regarding month-of planning services, and she definitely delivered. As a pretty spastic person that isn't the biggest fan of planning, I knew I needed someone that could keep me in line when it came to getting final details together and communicate with my vendors. Cylee came and proved why she is the best at her job! She kept us organized, was available via text, facetime, google meetings, etc whenever we needed something. Our wedding day went off without a hitch. I was completely unaware what time it was all day, able to stay in the moment because she was on top of everything and kept us on schedule. I cannot say enough wonderful things about her. She is one of the sweetest people you'll ever meet, she cares deeply about her job and the folks she works with, and she has a keen eye for the details. My husband and I had the best day ever, and Cylee is a huge reason why! If you're looking for someone to help make your day as magical as mine, she's exactly who you're looking for!!! We love her!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“Wherever you are on your checklist, the next thing you MUST do is book Sholeh as your coordinator/planner/life saver/therapist/best decision we made for our wedding. From the start, she had such a calm and positive energy that fit our vibe perfectly. She provided us with a boat load of tools and checklists from the day we signed our contract. Her network of contacts helped us form literally the Wedding Vendor Avengers. One example, our officiant fell ill ONE WEEK BEFORE THE WEDDING. Sholeh found our officiant within days who put together the most beautiful ceremony imaginable. Sholeh ran our rehearsal and stood in the doorway at the ceremony to ensure a seamless processional. She was a seamstress, an interior decorator, performed crowd control, you name it. Literally, I couldn't tell you what went wrong at my wedding. If anything happened, she took care of it and still hasn't told me. We are grateful beyond words and cannot recommend her enough. Ali and Rob 9.5.25”

I’m Amy Harloe, founder and lead event producer of HEA Events Chicago, formerly Happily Ever After by Amy. Before moving to the Chicago suburbs in 2016, I spent 17 years producing events in Los Angeles. For more than a decade, I’ve planned weddings throughout Chicago and the surrounding suburbs, helping couples navigate the process with clarity, confidence, and calm.

Awarded Best of Zola
“If you are looking for a wedding planner, you have found it. The single best thing I did for my wedding was hire Amy and HEA events to plan it. I just got married at the Adler Planetarium this weekend, and Amy & HEA events is the reason it happened. When I began my wedding planning process, I knew immediately I would need a planner. I was going to have a large 200 person wedding, and I knew I wanted it to be a grand event. I talked with over 10 different planners, and could not find anyone that felt "right", until I talked to Amy. From the minute we talked on the phone, I knew she was the best planner. She was sweet, yet honest, organized, and had a very impressive history of planned weddings. As a very "type A" bride, I was worried that no one would take my wedding as seriously as I did, and I was so wrong. I ALWAYS felt like Amy made my wedding a priority. In the two years leading up to my wedding, she reached out to all vendors, compared pricing, read through every contract, told me where to spend my money and what was a waste. She problem solved the smallest of things that only I noticed/ cared about, and never made me feel like something was silly or too over the top. She sat through every vendor meeting with me, took notes on everything that was said, and remembered every detail that I couldn't keep track of! She came to my tasting and gave her expert opinion on which foods to go with and why. She sent payment reminders, communicated with vendors constantly, helped me make decisions when I just couldn't make any more. However, the real testament of not only Amy's work, but also her character, came on the wedding weekend. During the rehearsal, Amy came with print outs for the entire party and family that clearly explained the timeline of the weekend. She ran the rehearsal so seamlessly. With the weather constantly changing, we had a day- of backup plan, but hoped we wouldn't need it. Then, on the wedding day, before an entirely outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour, we had a very difficult and stressful hour before the ceremony. As the rain continued to pour, Amy did everything in her power to reassure me and calm me down. I never felt any type of stress or concern from her. She was always calm and collected, and did everything in her power to make my wedding happen the way we had planned it. The weather cleared with just a few minutes to spare, and SOMEHOW, Amy and her team pulled off what was nothing short of a wedding day miracle, and we were able to still have the ceremony outside (and on time, might I add!!). Throughout the wedding night, Amy made sure to deal with any issue, handle difficult extended family members, and ensure that the night went off without a hitch. I can sincerely say that without Amy, my wedding would not have been everything I wanted it to be and more. I am going to miss getting to work with Amy every day. With Amy, you're not just getting an exceptional planner with years of experience and unmatched expertise that she brings to the table. You're also getting a friend, an older sister to tell you what to do, someone you can rely on when the stress of a wedding feels too great, and a metaphorical (and sometimes literal) bodyguard/ protector to shield you from vendors, crazy family members, and emotional distress LOL. Do yourself the biggest favor, and hire Amy & HEA events for your wedding or event.”

In 2019, I had no idea what I wanted to do or where I wanted to go after high school. Then, I planned my sister's bridal shower and made DIY crafts for her wedding. That is how my path of becoming a wedding and event planner started . I was in love with creating, organizing, and giving ideas.

“Ashley (owner) was absolutely AMAZING to work with! She was so responsive, was available at many times throughout the day/night, and was always willing to answer all my questions! She helped me bring my vision to life and gave me so many tips along the way. She thought of every little detail and helped me create the most perfect centerpieces, decor and so much more! She was on top of everything throughout the day, even when I forgot stuff. She made sure everything went smooth & as planned! I HIGHLY recommend hiring Ashley to help you with your wedding. She was a lifesaver and I could not have had the amazing day I did without her help!”

At HARTZ, we believe every love story deserves a beautifully curated celebration. My passion for planning began in childhood, when I organized events in school, as well as large charity events. The true spark came when I planned my own destination wedding in California while living in Chicago—managing every detail from afar. That experience showed me this is what I’m meant to do. With strong organization, creativity, and an eye for detail, I bring heart and harmony to every event, so you can truly enjoy the journey to “I do.”

“Hanna was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she was incredibly organized, attentive, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure our day was everything we hoped it would be. On the wedding day itself, Hanna was absolutely phenomenal. She handled so much behind the scenes that we were able to completely relax, be present, and enjoy every moment with our family and friends. She was constantly one step ahead, making sure every detail was taken care of and that everything flowed seamlessly. One of the biggest compliments we can give Hanna is how many of our guests commented on how amazing she was. Our family and friends noticed how organized, helpful, friendly, and on top of everything she was. It was not just us who saw how much she was doing. Everyone noticed. What stood out most was how genuinely she cared. She made us feel like our wedding truly mattered to her, and she went above and beyond to make sure we had the day we dreamed of. Her professionalism, warmth, organization, and calm presence made an enormous difference. We honestly cannot imagine our wedding day without Hanna. If you are planning a wedding and want someone you can completely trust to take care of the details while allowing you to actually enjoy your day, we cannot recommend Hanna and Hartz Wedding & Event Planner enough. Thank you, Hanna, for everything you did to make our wedding so beautiful, seamless, and unforgettable. We will always be grateful for you!”

“Wow... just wow. I am SO beyond grateful that I chose Grayter Events for my day-of wedding coordination. It was truly one of the best decisions I made for my wedding. Everything went so perfectly and seamlessly, and I didn't have to stress about a single thing the entire day because BreAnn had it all covered. She thought of absolutely everything. I think she opened at least 10 water bottles for me just to make sure I was actually drinking water! She was always one step ahead, making sure I had everything I needed before I even realized I needed it. Even at the rehearsal, I didn't have to do anything. BreAnn jumped right in, knew exactly what to do, and confidently took charge. She was organized, calm, and assertive in the best way possible. Watching her handle so many moving pieces without ever looking stressed was honestly incredible. Her calmness helped keep me calm too. Because of BreAnn, I was actually able to be fully present and enjoy every second of my wedding day instead of worrying about timelines, vendors, or what was happening next. She made my wedding day exactly what I had dreamed of, and I will forever be thankful for everything she did. If you're on the fence about hiring a wedding coordinator, DO IT—and hire Grayter Events. I truly cannot recommend BreAnn and her team enough. She is beyond organized, so kind, incredibly hardworking, and genuinely cares about making your day perfect.

Their help started months before the wedding. They worked with us to make sure everything was organized, communicated and connected with our vendors, and made sure all of the details were coming together as the big day approached. Having them there throughout the process gave us so much peace of mind knowing that everything was being taken care of. On the day of our wedding, they were absolutely incredible. They made sure everything ran smoothly and stayed on schedule from beginning to end. They handled communication with our vendors, answered questions, addressed any concerns that came up, and took care of all the little things behind the scenes so that we didn't have to worry about anything. Most importantly, they made sure that my groom and I were able to actually enjoy our wedding. They constantly checked in on us, made sure we had everything we needed, and allowed us to be fully present and enjoy such a special day with our family and friends.

“From the first call with Camille, I knew we were in the right hands! Despite the super tight timeframe we were working with (1 month), she took the time to really get to know us and our vision, support us along the way, and provide excellent guidance when we were unsure. Other planners we met with were nowhere near as personable, detail oriented, and engaged as Camille. She was so prepared, focused, and never lost sight of both the big picture of the day and how we were doing in the moment. We didn't have a bridal party, but having Camille there felt like having a best friend nearby to help with whatever I needed. She genuinely loves what she does and believes your wedding day should be the best day of your lives and she does everything in her power to make that come true.”

“We could NOT have done our wedding without Janella at Vinella Events. We were looking for a day-of coordinator because we thought it would help us enjoy our day and focus on celebrating with each other and our guests. We had that and more in working with Janella, and I am so thankful she made our wedding day as successful as it was. Janella came recommended to us by our venue, and we first met with her about 4 months before our wedding and went with her 6-week coordination package. We originally just wanted someone to help only for the day of the wedding, but this absolutely was a better deal because she came with us to our venue meetings, helped coordinate our timeline, asked insightful questions for things we never would have even thought of, went through our ceremony with me, and helped me feel SO much more prepared before the wedding through meetings and just being a resource. She helped us run an efficient rehearsal prior to the wedding and coordinated with me so that we would have all of the set-up and items how I wanted them for our wedding day. On the day of the wedding, she went above and beyond in her role. She set up all of our decor, helped facilitate transportation of items, executed the timeline and adapted when things went off time (and importantly, did all of this seamlessly so that myself and the guests didn’t notice), created back-up plans when there were issues with other vendors, coordinated set-up with other vendors, ran to get my lipstick from another room for photos, and too many other things behind the scenes that I didn’t even have to know about because I was able to trust her to tackle them. I had multiple compliments from family members and friends about how organized she was and how kind she was, and she made a 270-person wedding flow seamlessly. She ultimately gave us the ability to just ENJOY the day without having to answer questions or worry about things going on that day. I am so thankful for Janella and would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you for everything, Janella!”

We are a Chicago-based wedding planning and coordination company serving couples throughout Chicago and the Chicagoland area. Our services include wedding coordination (day-of management) and partial planning, designed to support you at every stage of your wedding planning journey. We bridge the gap between full-service wedding planning and day-of coordination by offering custom packages that align with your vision and budget.

“First off, let’s start with the fact that Hagir is the kind of person that makes you feel seen. Within the first few mins of our consultation with her (and we had several before her), we knew she was the right person to help get us across the finish line with our planning. She asked the best questions, she was excited about us and for us, and was so warm! Honestly, we didn’t expect more than what the other coordinators said they do, but Hagir was genuinely invested in us, in our wedding day and in making sure our families and friends felt comfortable. We had several virtual calls with her over a 9-month period, she checked in on us by email and by text and overall wanted to make sure we were on track and feeling good. Her demeanor is calm and confident, always smiling, and if there was a fire burning in our venue, I never would have known. We are so grateful for all that Hagir and her team did before, during and even after the wedding day. She created this incredibly sweet photo album of photos and videos that happened throughout the day, capturing moments that I don’t even think the photographers got, and sent it to us the very next day! She also gave us great vendor recommendations and we could not be more happy to have had her help execute our beautiful wedding. Thank you SO much! Sara and Michael”

“I cannot recommend Sarah enough! While I initially thought I just needed someone for the “day of,” I quickly realized how much goes into wedding coordination in the weeks and months leading up to the big day—and Sarah was there every step of the way. She went so far above and beyond what I ever expected, and I truly don’t know how I would have gotten through the wedding planning process, or the actual day, without her. From the moment we started working together, Sarah brought a sense of calm, professionalism, and thoughtfulness to everything. She is kind, incredibly organized, detail-oriented, and somehow manages to be both relaxed and hard-working at the same time. Every detail was thought through, every vendor was communicated with, and every little hiccup was handled before I even had time to worry about it. On my wedding day, I was able to be fully present and soak it all in, because I knew Sarah had everything under control. If you’re on the fence about whether you need a day-of coordinator, don’t overthink it—hire Sarah. She is a true gem, and you’ll be so glad to have her in your corner.”

“Working with Rojin from Baroj Events was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she brought a level of professionalism and calm that immediately put us at ease. Rojin has an incredible eye for detail—every element of our day felt intentional, cohesive, and beautifully executed. The timeline and overall flow of the event were seamless. What really sets her apart is how effortlessly she manages everything behind the scenes. On the day of the wedding, we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment because we knew we were in expert hands. She handled any challenge quietly and efficiently, and everything ran flawlessly. Beyond her expertise, Rojin is simply wonderful to work with—kind, responsive, and genuinely invested in making your day special. If you’re looking for a planner who will go above and beyond and deliver an unforgettable experience, I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
