I am so happy that I used Mostest to help me with my wedding. If you are on the fence about a day of coordinator, PLEASE make sure that you get one. Weeks leading up to my wedding I was becoming burnt out. My amazing coordinator, Arianna, did such an amazing job taking charge of getting my ducks in a row and also keeping everything running smoothly during my wedding day. I appreciate her so much! I also had an amazing content creator, Nicolette, who was so sweet and was able to pull together content through her own creative lense while still understanding my vision. I opted for a content creator instead of a videographer, and don’t regret this decision at all. I was elated to receive my reels the next evening, and have watched them every day since. They are so good, and highlighted all of the happiest and most beautiful moments. Lastly, thank you to Katherine for her help with my SBB floral set up and return. I’m so pleased with Mostest. My best friend will also trust Mostest with her upcoming wedding this year, after seeing such a positive outcome.

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.

Breann did such a great job helping us plan our wedding! My wife and I weren't sure if we wanted to have a month of coordinator, but we are so glad that we hired Breann. She helped my wife and I plan table placement, decoration set up and tear down, and she was prepared for a lot of the little things that we hadn't even thought of. She even brought us a plate of appetizers during our post ceremony photos so we weren't starving before the reception. All of the organization felt like it came so naturally to her and we never had to worry about communication with our vendors or who stands where and when. We had such a beautiful wedding and it ran smoothly thanks to Breann.

Denise and her team were such a pleasure to work with! As a photographer I’m able to almost go on autopilot when working with Marryment because I know they are on top of every small detail! From the flatlay, to the dress, the fine details of the timeline, etc. This might be an overstatement, but it also seems that Marryment has a huge following from word of mouth and not from a bunch of mindless advertising. That tells me one thing that is most important for any planner to have with couples…Trust! Every couple knows undoubtedly that their day is in great hands with Marryment! If I had money on the line I would put my money on them any day of the weekend!

One Fine Day was our best wedding decision/purchase of all vendors. Our initial conversation with Gina to discuss which package fit us best went amazing and she was very informative and transparent with what she offers. We were paired with Morgan as our Day of Coordinator and we cannot say enough wonderful things about Morgan and the incredible work she did. From our very first conversation to the final moments of our wedding day, she went above and beyond to ensure everything ran seamlessly, always with grace, professionalism, and genuine care. Morgan was exceptionally organized and detail-oriented, yet also calm, attentive, and consistently one step ahead. She managed vendors, kept our timeline flowing perfectly, and made sure we had time to breathe and truly enjoy each moment. Because of her, we were able to be completely present on our wedding day without a single worry, and that peace of mind is something we will cherish forever.

Katie works to take care of the details, allowing you to relax and focus on creating memories with your loved ones. Whether you are planning an intimate gathering or an extravagant affair, she can assist with weddings of all sizes.

We worked with Katie for our wedding and we could not recommend her enough. We were unsure about incorporating a coordinator in our budget and I’m so glad we did. My partner and I both said it was the best decision we made. Katie was always timely and reliable with communication. During our planning calls, she brought up things that I never would have thought of which helped our day run smoothly. She always had patience with my many questions. She helped us personalize our day to be representative of us as a couple, highlighting what was important to us. She helped with communication and follow up with vendors which alleviated some of the stress and “to do” items leading up to the wedding. Katie was incredibly helpful with running our rehearsal, ensuring that our family and friends knew what to do and had their questions answered as well. Our day ran so smoothly and I’m sure there was much Katie helped with behind the scenes that made that happen. She helped with set up and take down of decorations, always made sure we had a drink if we wanted one, and was the go-to person for everyone’s questions which took a lot of stress of off me and allowed us to enjoy our day. We highly recommend you adding Katie to your team and I know you’d be in great hands.

Graceful Weddings And Events Llc. was an absolute pleasure to work with. Their communication style was super responsive, and the quality of their work was truly professional, valuable, honest, and transparent. Traci and her team were amazing - they put everything together seamlessly and saved our wedding day. When my wife's maid of honor accidentally left the wedding veil at the hotel, Traci's assistant sprang into action, getting an Uber and rushing the veil to the church, delaying the ceremony by only 11 minutes. Traci knew my wife couldn't walk down the aisle without it, and she went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. She's not just a wedding planner, she's a true professional who gets things done. I can't recommend Graceful Weddings And Events highly enough.

Absolutely no restrictions on phone calls, meetings messages, whether in person or not. She actually truly cares about her clients and does not make commission off of any venues or vendors in fact, quite the opposite, she is a master at negotiation and that’s how you can tell that she’s in this Because it’s her passion. She goes way above and beyond for all of her clients and I could tell by working with her throughout the process for the entire year along that we worked with Traci. To be honest we actually miss her because she was solving not only wedding problems, but other issues as well Put it this way Traci will make sure that you have exactly what you want but she will go and take it 10 steps further! I would recommend her to anyone I know having any type of event!

Brenda was amazing to work with from start to finish! She cared about understanding us as a couple and our desires for the wedding. Recommending other vendors that met our budget, our personality and vision. Wedding planning is full of stressful decision making and Brenda coached us through those moments, held us to account, but remained flexible. She’s so sweet, fun, and professional—always on time, always prepared, and somehow made the whole planning process actually enjoyable. She went above and beyond by even unwrapping over 150 wigs that we had forgot about. She was super quick to answer texts and emails, always happy to hop on a call, and kept us on track with a super detailed timeline so nothing ever felt last-minute or rushed. I especially loved her monthly check-ins on the 1st—it kept everything organized and stress-free. Brenda came recommended from a friend’s wedding, and now I get why. Couldn’t have asked for a better planner and I’ll be recommending her to everyone I know.

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 are beyond grateful to our incredible wedding planner for helping bring our Garden Summer Wedding to life on June 14, 2025. From start to finish, the planning process was smooth, collaborative, and truly enjoyable. Every detail reflected our personalities and vision—from the romantic florals of eucalyptus, hydrangeas, and roses with soft touches of purple, to the perfectly arranged tent and décor that made our backyard feel magical. Our planner worked seamlessly with us and our vendors to make the day unforgettable. From accommodating fun and unexpected elements like a white bounce house castle and a vintage plum crazy 1970 Dodge Challenger, to helping coordinate Andrew and his son’s surprise dirt bike entrance—nothing was ever too big or too small. Their professionalism and calm presence allowed us to relax and fully enjoy every moment. Thank you for turning our ideas into something even more beautiful than we imagined. You gave us a day full of joy, laughter, and cherished memories—we couldn’t have done it without you! With heartfelt thanks, Yulia & Andrew

Thyme & Details, under the exceptional leadership of Dana Watts, played an instrumental role in orchestrating our special day. From the moment we embarked on the planning journey, Dana's warm and delightful personality instantly put us at ease. Her unwavering commitment to excellence and meticulous attention to detail transformed what could have been a daunting process into a manageable and relatively stress-free affair. What truly sets Dana apart is her unparalleled expertise and extensive network of vendor connections. With her guidance, we navigated through countless decisions with confidence, knowing that Dana's recommendations would always lead us to the best possible outcomes. From selecting the perfect venue to curating a dream team of vendors, Dana's wealth of experience and industry knowledge proved invaluable at every turn. One of the most remarkable aspects of working with Thyme & Details was Dana's ability to keep us organized and on track throughout the planning process. With her meticulous planning and proactive approach, she ensured that by the week of the wedding, we had zero decisions or tasks left to complete. This allowed us to approach our special day with a sense of calm and relaxation, knowing that every detail had been meticulously taken care of. This was truly priceless. On the day of the wedding, Dana and her team executed flawlessly, leaving no detail overlooked. From managing unexpected challenges with grace and efficiency to ensuring that both sets of parents could fully immerse themselves in the celebration free from tasks or responsibilities. Both our Mom’s had planned our siblings weddings and what a gift for them to be able to relax, be present, and truly enjoy the wedding. I have countless fond memories of Dana and her team going above and beyond to make our wedding day truly unforgettable. From tackling last-minute emergencies with poise and professionalism to seamlessly coordinating every aspect of the event, Dana's commitment to excellence was apparent in every interaction. I cannot recommend Thyme & Details, and Dana, highly enough. With her unmatched expertise, unwavering professionalism, and genuine care for her clients, she truly exceeded our expectations in every way. If you're searching for a wedding planning partner who will turn your vision into reality or create one for you, look no further than Dana and Thyme & Details. You won't be disappointed.
