About grayterevents
grayterevents
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.
I like to pride myself on my positive attitude, calm, collected demeanor, and budget conscious spirit. I can work with any budget to create a vision you will love and I carry out that vision as a team player with the rest of your vendors because we are in fact a team together to bring your dream to life.
In three words: Calm, Collaborative, Efficient

Scala/borsellino wedding
Breann was so patient, kind, and caring with both of us. I’m sorry for the photographer, I have reported to her. You were able to make my vision come to life! Thank so much for professionalism, and I felt like this photographer wasn’t keeping our timeline we came up with!

The Ohman Wedding
There are truly not enough words to describe what Breann did for us and our wedding. From the very beginning, she took every worry and uncertainty we had into her hands and helped guide us through it all. She is incredibly kind, patient, thoughtful, and extremely organized. There was no request too big or small. Breann took everything we had envisioned for our wedding day and brought it to life even better than we could have imagined. I cannot emphasize how organized Breann is! She makes everything feel so easy and is constantly communicating, making sure you know exactly what is happening and that every little detail is taken care of. Having her by our side allowed us to actually enjoy our wedding instead worrying about all the things happening behind the scenes. One moment that particularly sticks out to me happened the day before the wedding. Breann and I received a message that the photographer had been injured and would no longer be able to appropriately photograph our wedding day. Of course, I immediately went into panic mode Breann, however, stayed completely calm and sprung into action. In less than 12 hours, she found us a replacement photographer who was willing to work with us, fit within our budget, and made sure we weren’t left scrambling before our wedding. Breann puts her entire heart into what she does. It is so obvious that she genuinely not only loves her job, but the couples and families she works with. She cares deeply about making her clients feel supported and that their day is everything they hoped it would. We truly cannot thank Breann enough our wedding day would not have been as beautiful without her.

Stellar Service
BreAnn was absolutely fantastic. From the moment we met, everything just clicked. She was communicative and organized. Even when things started to fall apart at the finish line, she kept her. She sourced a last minute vendor for us because someone canceled week of. Despite the chaos and complexities, it was just absolutely perfect in every way imaginable. We love Bre so much. Any bride who works with her will have nothing short of the best day. You're amazing Bre, I want you to know how much I treasure the opportunity to have gotten to work with you.

Hire Breann asap!!!
Breann is 1000% the day of coordinator you need for your wedding. She is so professional, organized, kind, thoughtful and so so easy to work with. She attended our planning meeting with our venue, checked in a handful of times throughout the wedding process and was there for 12 hours the day of our wedding. She truly thinks of everything and has it all. Our officiant was STUNG by a WASP during her speech and Breann gave her benadryl immediately after the ceremony. She was so prepared! She set up all of our centerpieces, decor and was such a helpful resource day of the wedding and beforehand. I can not recommend her enough! Truly the best of the best and I am recommending her to anyone I know that has a wedding in the future.
