When I used to think of wedding planners, I pictured the movie version — someone with a headset, barking orders, and obsessing over every tiny detail (I've never been married, so I literally had no idea what to expect!!) But oh boy, was I wrong. I’m not the type of bride who grew up pinning wedding ideas or dreaming about dresses. When I got engaged, I just knew I wanted to celebrate that year, especially since my parents have health challenges and I wanted them to be part of something truly special. But once you start planning a wedding, you realize how overwhelming it all is — the costs, the choices, the emotions. I’m a TV producer, so I know what it takes to plan a big event, but wedding planning is its own beast. It takes people like Haylie and Becca to make it all come to life. Becca, in particular, was like an extension of me. She was funny, caring, and endlessly patient. She offered thoughtful advice when I had no clue what I was doing, and she made sure everything ran smoothly even when I was emotionally overloaded. She’s also incredibly creative — she even hand-made beautiful pieces for me that made the day feel so personal. Haylie and Heirloom Event Co made sure my wedding wasn’t just organized, but deeply special. They’re not the stereotypical “crazy planners with headsets” — they’re a compassionate, talented team who balance professionalism with heart. They understand what matters most: letting you actually be present with your partner, your family, and your friends. My day was better than I could have ever imagined, and I’ll forever be grateful for them.

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.

Hiring BreAnn to be our day of coordinator was hands down one of the best decisions I could have made. We got married this past June and our day went perfectly, so smooth, no hiccups and this is all because of Bre. Anytime I recommend Bre to a future bride, one thing I always say is that when you consider how much money is going into a wedding - you should also make an investment in making sure your day runs smoothly. Bre met with me a year prior to my wedding, helped create a spreadsheet to keep track of all vendors, gave amazing recommendations on vendors, did a walk through of the venue with me, created timelines, helped with o ur rehearsal & so much more. All of that was done BEFORE the wedding day was even here. Bre goes above and beyond to coordinate all your vendors and puts so much effort in making sure your vision comes to life. The day of my wedding I, nor anyone in the bridal party was bothered with vendor questions which really allowed everyone to just be able to relax. When arriving to our venue Bre had helped set up the decor and everything was stunning. Because I live close by her she even came and picked up my welcome sign prior to the wedding day along with the marriage certificate so I truly had nothing to worry about the day of the wedding. Bre helped everyone stay on track with timing, helped everyone throughout the ceremony know where to stand, when to start walking, etc - which is so helpful when you’re trying to get a bunch of people in a bridal party to listen. Once the wedding was over Bre packed up all of our decor making sure everything was extremely organized and she even took home my flower bouquet since I was having it preserved and helped coordinate that to ensure the bouquet would be safe at the end of the night. If you are on the fence about hiring a coordinator - just do it. You truly will not regret hiring Bre, she was the best vendor/decisions I could have made for our wedding!

I can’t even imagine what a chaotic mess the day would have been without Claire by my side. She was ten steps ahead at every moment—everything was laid out and ready for me, she sent thoughtful checklist reminders throughout the week, captured amazing B-roll footage my photographer couldn’t get, and handled both setup and teardown flawlessly. Claire is so much more than a “day-of” planner—she truly goes above and beyond.

I found Alexa on the Knot and booked her for Monarch’s full wedding planning package as my husband & I were planning a wedding outside of Chicago in an unconventional venue, 9 months away, and lived in another state. It was a big challenge but from the initial consultation, we loved Alexa’s energy, organization, commitment and just knew we could trust her with our once in a lifetime event. The planning process was extremely organized, thorough and well-paced. She matched my attention to detail, tackled unplanned challenges with ferocity (which included a limited selection of vendors given the location of our venue) and was as dedicated to bringing my very specific vision to life as I was. She brought great vendor recommendations and connections and did countless hours of research on new vendors. Details were well-documented and thoroughly discussed to ensure all parties were aligned. Even though our venue was farther outside Chicago (Indiana), she ran several venue walkthroughs in-person, attended vendor visits with me, and always accommodated my husband and I’s busy schedule. As Alexa started to step away for her maternity leave (which started right before our wedding date), she did an amazing job ensuring her team was fully prepared to handle last minute preparations and day-of responsibilities. The day-of team of 3 were awesome with completely handling all details A-Z so I didn’t have to worry about anything, even despite some last minute changes due to weather! Due to the complexity of our venue, its location, short timeline, and being from out-of-state, we are SO GLAD we booked Monarch for their full planning package and had the privilege of working with Alexa! It was sincerely our pleasure to have her bring our special day to life, she was a joy to work with and get to know. If I were getting married again, I’d book her services again no question! Thank you Alexa!!

They took away all the chaos from my husband and I and everything went off without a hitch and if it didn't we did not know! 10 /10! I would strongly reccomend them for every wedding!

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!

if you’re anything like i was and you’re on the fence about hiring a wedding planner, take this as your sign. i was very adamant that a wedding planner did not fit into our budget. i had been stalking cylee’s social medias and was so jealous that i couldn’t have her. since im stubborn, i began to attempt to plan the wedding by myself. i remember thinking to myself “how hard could this be?” my question was quickly answered when i had 37 vendors emailing me the next morning. we ended up hiring cylee, thinking she would “just be a wedding planner.” we were quickly proved wrong. cylee has turned into a friend. she has seen me at my best, my worst, and everything inbetween that. the amount of mental breakdowns she talked me through while we attempted to fix my flowers, make my seating chart, guest drama, etc. cylee sat with me for 8 hours…yes you read that right!!! she sat with me for EIGHT HOURS building my arch florals, welcome sign florals, and fixing my bouquets. cylee hand made everything from my save the dates, invites, seating chart, bar signs, everything!!! she even helped my maid of honor with my wedding shower. i have told everyone in my life, and now i’ll tell all of you who are stalking her page and reading her reviews, cylee is the best decision i made throughout the process of getting married (besides my husband, of course). she knew what i wanted before i did, she knew what vendors to say no to, what vendors to show me, and even had special insights and relationships with each vendor. fitting her into our budget actually ended up saving us money due to her expertise in being able to make every dream i had come true. she is a true gift to the wedding industry and to this world. our wedding night was more perfect than we ever imagined, and none of it would have been possible without cylee.

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!

We hired Michelle Knutson for our November 2025 Palm Springs wedding and truly could not be happier with our experience. We had a fairly small event, so we went with the day-of-coordinator package. Michelle truly went above and beyond just the day-of coordinating. She coordinated a couple intros zooms, got in touch with our venue and all of our vendors beforehand and brought us solutions when we realized we were going to be rained on. The day of she was a straight shooter - direct and ran a tight ship. But she was also warm, friendly and upbeat. Her assistant even took care of my dog for me and made sure he was fed and walked!

This allows us to fully focus on creating seamless, elevated experiences while securing exclusive perks, upgrades, and a dedicated onsite coordinator for you. In addition to our destination focus, we also offer other levels of wedding planning within the US for an additional fee and honeymoon planning and room blocks are included. As certified wedding planners and travel agents, we handle every detail so you can celebrate confidently and enjoy every moment of your wedding journey.

Planning our wedding in Jamaica felt surprisingly easy thanks to Destination 2 I Do. From the beginning, everything was handled with professionalism and care. Our all inclusive resort wedding came together beautifully, and we never felt overwhelmed during the process. One thing that truly stood out was how they tracked flights for us, our wedding party, and our parents to make sure everyone arrived without issues. Not paying any wedding planning fees while still receiving this level of service was incredible. Our wedding day was stunning, seamless, and exactly what we envisioned. We would highly recommend Destination 2 I Do to any couple considering a Jamaica destination wedding.

Weddings by Danica was such an absolute JOY to work with!! I am a wedding photographer and one of my couples booked her and her team as a wedding coordinator. Everything was so effortless when working with the WBD team! Communication leading up to the day was made easy and everything that I needed as a fellow vendor was taken care of before I even needed to ask. Not only was the team so professional, it made working with them fun as well.

Hello! I’m Kelly, the founder of Kelly’s Elegant Events, a wedding and event planning service dedicated to creating beautifully curated celebrations worldwide. Originally from the UK, I’ve lived in six countries, each inspiring my love for cultural traditions and the joy of bringing people together. My journey into event planning began with Girl Gone International, a global women’s community, where I organized events connecting women worldwide. These experiences fuelled my passion for crafting unforgettable memories and bringing visions to life for couples and celebrations of all kinds.

Kelly organized my 50th Birthday party and it was beyond amazing! From start to finish, she was a pleasure to work with and she took care of nearly everything. I appreciated how Kelly paid very specific attention to all my requests and ideas. I did absolutely nothing and she took care of EVERYTHING! Kelly and her team listened closely to our vision and provided helpful guidance to ensure every detail was executed flawlessly. The day-of coordination was outstanding, and they kept the timeline running smoothly so we could fully soak in the celebration.

At Honey Hollow Events, we believe your wedding day should feel calm, joyful, and totally you. We specialize in Day-Of Coordination for couples who’ve planned their own day and just want to relax and celebrate. About 4–6 weeks before, we jump in to tie up loose ends, confirm vendors, and bring your vision to life. We’re here to make sure all your hard work turns into a smooth, stress-free, and unforgettable day! 💕

Hiring Honey Hollow was the single best decision we made for our wedding. From day one, they made us feel completely supported, heard, and never alone in the process. The unlimited consultations were truly unlimited even when I would text late at night after a long shift, overwhelmed and second-guessing everything, they responded right away with reassurance, clarity, and a calm presence that I desperately needed. When last-minute family changes came up, Honey stepped in without missing a beat. She talked me off the ledge, reworked our timeline on the fly, and somehow made everything feel seamless and stress-free. What could have been incredibly overwhelming turned into a moment where I felt taken care of. On our wedding day, I was able to fully be present, emotional, and joyful because I knew everything was in the best hands. Honey Hollow didn’t just coordinate our day they carried the weight so we didn’t have to. We are endlessly grateful and would recommend them to every couple without hesitation.
