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

Happily Ever After by Amy was the perfect wedding planning partner for our special day. From the beginning, Amy was efficient, timely, and clear, leaving nothing to question so we had confidence through the entire process. Her work was truly top-notch - She was incredibly knowledgeable about the local vendors, connected us with the best options to fit our vision and budget, and left no detail overlooked. My partner and I live in Minnesota but we had our wedding in Chicago, so it was really important to have someone who knew the local industry very well. We visited Chicago just twice for planning and Amy handled everything else, including the tasting! She seamlessly managed all the vendors, coordination, and onsite management so that our wedding day went off without a hitch. We are so grateful for Amy's expertise and professionalism, making our dream wedding a reality.

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 incredible from start to finish. She made the whole planning process so much easier and took care of every little detail. The day itself was absolutely perfect – everything ran smoothly, looked beautiful, and felt totally stress-free for us. We couldn’t have asked for a better planner. Highly recommend her!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very first meeting, Valerie from The Simply Elegant Group completely won us over. She met with us in person and spent nearly two full hours diving into every detail of our (okay, mostly my) wedding vision. Right away, it was clear she wasn’t just a planner—she was a listener, a guide, and someone who genuinely cared about making our day unforgettable. What set Valerie apart throughout the planning process was her consistency and calm professionalism. She stayed in regular contact with us—monthly check-ins at first, then weekly as the big day approached, and even daily in that final stretch. She always kept me on track without making things feel overwhelming. She helped with everything from designing signs to crafting our timeline and managing vendor communication. But most of all, she brought this incredible sense of calm that I didn’t know I needed so badly. I’ve seen other planners who are high-energy or frantic, and while they mean well, that kind of energy would have stressed me out. Valerie, on the other hand, had this "I got it" energy that was both reassuring and grounding. No drama, no stress—just total confidence and grace. And then there’s Gabi, her day-of assistant—who was equally amazing. Together, they made sure the day flowed seamlessly. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing. From the ceremony to the reception, every detail was handled with care and professionalism. And I swear—when it looked like it might rain, Valerie must have worked some kind of magic, because we ended up with a stunning 72-degree October day with sunshine. I mean, who else can literally chase the rain away?! Thanks to Valerie (and Gabi!), our wedding day didn’t just meet expectations—it exceeded them. It was everything we dreamed of and more. We are so grateful for their support, calm presence, and true expertise. If you're looking for a planner who brings peace, organization, and genuine care to the biggest day of your life—look no further. Thank you, Valerie, for making our wedding absolutely perfect. We couldn’t be happier!

BW Studio+Events is a Chicago-based event coordination and planning group serving Chicagoland and surrounding suburbs. The Studio focuses on intimate weddings with unique flair and lots of personal touches. Blair founded BW Studio after hosting a number of non-profit events and finding herself completely immersed in the process. Once she realized her knack for event organization and planning, the studio was quickly born.

Awarded Best of Zola
Blair and her team, Elly and Neva, were lifesavers for our wedding! We met her team during an open house for The Brix, the venue where we had our reception. We found out that my cousin was also working with her for his wedding and he had the most amazing things to say so we knew we were in good hands! Blair is easy to talk to and work with, professional, kind, understanding, and extremely organized! She helped us stick to our budget, coordinate with other vendors, and gave us so many recommendations and options for high quality vendors. Blair is extremely responsive! We loved how quickly she was responding to any questions we had and I also really appreciated the nudges on deadlines! We have extremely busy schedules and we travel often, so the frequent reminders and check-ins were crucial. We were grateful that there were scheduled talks intermittently throughout the planning process. It really helped us manage the timeline and logistics. If you’re a Type-A Bride, you will love the website they put together to help keep things organized (seating chart, vendors etc). On the big day, Blair and her team ensured everything ran smoothly, allowing us to enjoy ourselves. My husband and I highly recommend BW Studio for anyone looking to make their wedding stress-free and memorable!

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.

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.

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. She is simply the best, and I can't imagine my wedding day without her.

All couples need Dana and her team with Thyme & Details for their big day. We hired Dana as a day of coordinator but she is so much more than that. She went to countless vendor meeting and kept track of all of my overly detailed instructions to make sure each piece of our day (timeline, vendor contracts, etc) worked with those details. When the venue dropped the ball, others got details wrong, or vendors fell through, Dana was always a step ahead and came up with even better solutions than our original plans. Dana really knows the ins and outs of organizing a wedding, is in tune with the Columbus wedding scene, and has incredibly valuable connections. Overall we were blown away by Dana and her team’s professionalism and dedication to our wedding.

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.

Shh Events comes from all of the experiences I have gained- all of the trade secrets- that set my experience as a wedding planner to an elevated level of expertise. Shh Events is a curator for love stories, and it's an honor to be a part of the stories we tell.

We used Shh Events as our day-of coordinators, and Stephanie and her team are absolute rockstars. Caitlin and Vanessa kept us on track, managed setup and tear down (including our DIY flowers!), and somehow throughout all of it captured video moments on a highlight reel that we've re-watched a million times while waiting for our photos to get back! We both agree it was the best money spent to have the team corralling our vendors, creating/sharing timelines, and keeping track of all of the details for us. We were both able to be fully present, enjoy, and even get some solid relaxation time in during our wedding day. Couldn't be happier with our experience.

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!!

As a SECOND time Bride, whom didn't use a planner the first time. HIRE MICHELLE. You won't regret it one bit. As a "seasoned" wedding professional, I didn't use a planner the first time and I regret it. WOW WOW WOW What a difference it makes to have someone advocating for you! There was no need to chat with any vendors and answer questions about anything because I had Michelle. I can't stress enough how much this made my day STRESS-FREE. She's a total professional boss babe, friendly, and fierce. Thank you again Michelle for making our day AMAAAAAAAZING.

Sarah is amazing to work with. We had a large backyard, outdoor wedding .. the day ended up being the rainiest day in June but Sarah executed the day perfectly. From the very beginning, She was so easy to communicate with, very helpful and always thought of things that I would never even thought about. If you are looking for someone to ease your mind, I recommend hiring Sarah for your big day, you won't regret it! Thank You Sarah!!!
