About BW Studio + Events

BW Studio+Events

Owner + Lead Planner

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.

BW Studio wants your wedding to be as unique as you two are! We always strive to tell a complete story of the couple with every event we plan. We also aim to be as digital of a company as possibly allowed by the creative nature of this industry. Tools will be made available to you 24/7 through our online platform, and we will try to keep paper use to a minimum. We consider it part of our mission to reduce waste whenever possible. Let’s chat about ways to ‘green up’ your wedding… with or without eucalyptus.

In three words: Calm, Confident, Resourceful

    Wonderful experience planning with Blair!

    We worked with Blair and her team to plan our wedding and had a fantastic experience. Blair is friendly, responsive and extremely on top of every detail—she is the strategist and turbo-charged project manager we desperately needed! Her network of vendors were all friendly and great to work with, and she always provided a range of options and trade-offs to consider. The weekend of the wedding, Blair, Neva and Angelena all played different roles and were each a pleasure to work with. They ensured everything went perfectly and we could focus on enjoying the event. It would not have been possible to plan our wedding without Blair, and we are so grateful!

    The BEST planners ever!

    Working with BW Studio Events was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! From day one, their organization and communication were top-tier. They kept us completely on track with detailed planning meetings, an amazingly helpful online planning hub, and direct personal texts and calls whenever we had a quick question or needed advice. On the day of the wedding, they made everything run so effortlessly. Because of their hard work behind the scenes, Wes and I were able to fully relax, stay present, and enjoy every single moment of a truly perfect day. If you want a team that is attentive, ridiculously organized, and genuinely invested in making your day seamless, hire BW Studio!

    Run, don't walk, to the phone to call BW Studio

    Working with BW Studio Events made planning our wedding feel less stressful and so much more enjoyable. From our first conversation, the team was responsive and genuinely listened to what we wanted for our day, never pushing us in a direction that didn't feel right. They came to the table with creative ideas that actually solved problems we didn't even know we had, and their knowledge of vendors and logistics was incredibly helpful. Everything I said I wanted they made happen. What stood out most was how they stayed ahead of things—always checking in, catching details before they became issues, and making sure we felt supported every step of the way. The whole process felt manageable because they handled so much behind the scenes, and on our wedding day everything came together beautifully. We'd recommend BW Studio Events to any couple looking for planners who truly care about making your vision happen.

    Highly Recommend!!

    If I could give Neva, Blair, and their team more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. Calling them a "day-of coordinator" doesn't even begin to describe everything they do. From the moment we booked with them, Neva was there every step of the way. She constantly checked in, sent helpful countdown reminders and planning tips, and always asked what she could do to help. It was so much more than I ever expected and truly made the planning process so much less overwhelming. Our check-in meetings were always incredibly helpful. Neva made sure we covered every detail, reminded me of things I may have forgotten, and helped me navigate anything I wasn't sure about. As someone who is very Type A, I especially loved the detailed timeline she created, it was absolutely perfect and gave me so much peace of mind! On our wedding day, everything felt seamless. I'm sure there were little hiccups behind the scenes (because there always are), but thanks to Neva and her team, I never had to worry about a single one of them. I was able to be fully present, enjoy every moment, and never once felt stressed about vendors, logistics, or what was happening next. They handled everything with such professionalism and care. Neva was so attentive to every little detail that was important to me, and it truly showed throughout the entire day. I can't thank her, Blair, and the rest of the team enough for everything they did to make our wedding day so special. They went above and beyond in every possible way, and I would recommend them to any couple without hesitation. They are worth every penny and were truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Thank you all!

    Blair is the best!

    Blair at BW Studio Events made our wedding dreams come true. From start to finish, she was responsive to our questions, open to our ideas, and patient as we worked through all the details. She connected us with high-quality vendors that we trusted completely, which gave us peace of mind during the planning process. On our wedding day, everything ran smoothly exactly as we had planned it, and we were able to actually relax and enjoy ourselves instead of worrying. We honestly could not have pulled off our dream wedding without Blair. We're so grateful for her hard work and professionalism.

Yes! I am the lead planner and owner, but we have two associate planners and various assistants. Full and Partial Planning clients will always have Blair as their lead planner. Management Couples will have an associate planner with Blair's oversight and guidance. We always team plan to provide you the best possible service!
Absolutely! We are happy to help you plan all sorts of celebrations - Rehearsals, showers, dinners, welcome parties, etc. Typically, we charge hourly, but let's talk details first.
Sometimes we split the team between two weddings, but we try to only have one event per team per weekend so we can all be hyper focused on our couple's needs for the entire weekend!
