    One of the first questions Bristol asked us was what we didn't like about the wedding planning process and the day of activities/schedule. That question revealed so much about Bristol's professionalism, thoughtfulness, genuine curiosity, attentiveness and detailed approach to event planning. We knew we wanted to hire her as our day-of coordinator. Beyond that, when we explained our needs and vision to Bristol, she was up for the challenge. It required communication and coordination across multiple locations and multi-faceted logistics, which were all executed beautifully. Secondly, the team knew several of our sustainability-minded vendors, which was a huge plus for us, as it made coordination and communication easier. Even without those connections, the detailed documents provided helped us stay organized while giving the team the info they needed to ensure everything ran smoothly. We appreciated Bristol's professionalism, creativity, flexibility and support throughout our wedding planning process. Her company's values aligned with ours, which we wanted to display through the various elements of our wedding. She brought it all to fruition and understood exactly where we were coming from. Bristol helped us solidify the vision and execution of our "playful elegance" theme, gave her honest and expert opinion when solicited, ran on schedule, and picked up, set up, and packed up all of the decor items we had. The team even sent us some of the photos they took of our venue and wedding day details, which was a sweet and memorable touch. We felt completely free to enjoy our wedding reception and are so glad we selected Sustainable Soirees. We would absolutely hire Bristol for future events and couldn't recommend Sustainable Soirees enough -- especially for those who care about the sustainability of their event.

    Bristol was an incredible partner for us during the planning and execution of our wedding. She and her team worked hard to make sure the process was as painless as possible while keeping us on-track and realistic. We particularly appreciated her design plan, which wound up influencing a wide variety of thematic elements and giving our concept some much-needed clarity. She also helped us locate several of our amazing (and eco-conscious) vendors, some of whom we wouldn't have otherwise even known about. Maybe most meaningfully, we appreciated her willingness to jump in and help us catch up. As a queer couple, neither of us had been planning our wedding since childhood and there was a lot we didn't know. Her Chicago wedding expertise and experience were invaluable to us. A not insubstantial number of our guests said ours was one of the best weddings they'd ever attended, and we'd have to agree. Bristol gets the lion's share of the credit for that.

  • Amazing!

    We are so grateful for Bristol’s amazing talent and the immense dedication she put into our wedding. She and her team went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right while taking our stress away in the process. She was extremely professional, accessible, hard-working, and so pleasant to work with!

    Bristol and her team were a dream to work with! We hired Bristol about a year before our wedding and honestly are so glad we did. She was so helpful in finding us the perfect venue even though I was dead set against a hotel she found us the perfect one for our wedding and it was a dream! I never once felt super overwhelmed or beyond stressed through out the entire process and even when I did Bristol was always willing to text or schedule a phone call with me asap to help ease my worries. 10/10 would recommended for any of your events!
