I honestly have no idea how I would have managed the wedding day without Natalie’s help. I absolutely loved working with her prior to the big day itself—her positive energy paired with incredible organizational skills made the process of organizing all the vendors and scheduling everything a breeze! She truly went above and beyond to ensure that everything went smoothly prior and on the wedding day itself. From contacting all the vendors to helping me decorate the dining table at the venue the eve before the wedding—Natalie was truly there for me every step of the way! And I can’t say enough great things about her managing the day itself and ensuring that everyone was in time despite us getting married during an actual hurricane in NYC with flooded subways and insane traffic! I mean, even with everything going on we weren’t a second late for anything, and the day was super smooth all thanks to her! Whenever I forgot something (including rings for the ceremony lol) Natalie would magically produce everything right that instant—I really don’t know what I would do without her! Huge thanks to Natalie and GTHR for the perfectly organized, stress-free and overall best wedding ever!

  • Offers 6 services
  • Starts at $250

My absolute joy is to make all your wedding dreams come true. I'm a social worker and have over a decade of experience planning weddings and parties, working in nonprofit operations, and creating inclusive spaces.

Awarded Best of Zola
Married in October of '23, we decided that planning our wedding could be done in about 8 months. After about 3 days alone, we realized that may be a tall task without some guidance. Cue us reaching out to Trinity. She greeted the challenge we'd set ourselves up for with vigor, ensuring and encouraging that if we stayed on the goal-oriented timeline she helped us create, we'd be at ease with our plans come the big day! Trinity aided us on a bi-weekly basis to meet our milestones efficiently, always providing expert insight and advice on difficult or big decisions along the way. She provided more focused assistance the few weeks leading up to the wedding with final details, vendor coordination, and day-of scheduling. On our wedding day, she ensured many moving pieces remained aligned so the day seemed to take care of itself. Above all, Trinity provided us a special friendship to take us to husband and wife status! Caring, considerate, elite planning and coordination. If we had to plan another (please no), Trinity would be our first call!

Carolyn was a dream to work with for our wedding! We utilized her talents as a day of coordinator and it was honestly worth it times a million. We added on the rehearsal option which with a wedding party of 20 adults and 15(!!) kids was so so helpful. Day of, I had ZERO worries. I was able to fully enjoy our wedding and not be fielding questions or any issues! She was extremely professional, energetic and an amazing person to celebrate in our day with us. A simple google brought me to Carolyn, but it was fate! For being a type A bride, she offered endless support and reassurance and her timeline for day of was key in making sure everything was executed to perfection! Could not recommend CM Planning enough!

I met Haylie through a friends wedding that she planned. I was very impressed, and she mentioned she planned other events. My girlfriend and I attended a circus themed party at "Get A Grip Trapeze in Chicago", and it was amazing! It was 3-hours of flying trapeze, and there were Circus themed art, props, and food! There were several other couples at the event, and it was great. 10/10!

Emily Nuzzo Events

Palatine, IL
  • Offers 5 services
  • Starts at $3,500

Hi there! I am Emily and I am so excited you found your way here. I have a passion for curating one-of-a-kind weddings that showcase a couple’s individuality. It is important for me to get to know couple’s personally, what makes them excited about their wedding day and how I can alleviate any planning stress (ew, we don’t want stress). Consider me your right-hand gal, your “planner in your pocket”, your sounding board and the gal that will make sure your wedding day is flawless!

Awarded Best of Zola
Emily was easily the BEST wedding investment we have ever made. She went above and BEYOND as our day of coordinator. She took all the pieces we had started working on the wedding process and created a perfectly planned puzzle that was our wedding day. She calmed every nerve I had as a bride, she supported us as a couple and ultimately made our wedding the most magical day of my life. The only regret I have is not booking her sooner to alleviate all the wedding stress I had prior to booking her, believe me her consistent calls every 2 weeks to every week to almost every day leading up to my wedding day were like going to spa. I will never stop recommending her to every one I know who is getting married!!! Thank you Emily for everything!!!

The Rebel Wedding Planner

5.0

St. Louis, MO
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $3,200

I have a dirty little secret… I never wanted to be a wedding planner. It was never something that was on my radar. The series of events that led me to this industry is, to be honest, not very exciting, inspiring, or important, really, so I’ll skip that part. (Feel free to ask me later.) What is important is that my heart is in help and service. Born and raised in St. Louis, I’ve gained a lot of knowledge about local wedding vendors, traditions, and styles. But after working 12+ years in the industry, I’m down for anything and love working with a couple that has a unique style and vision for their day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Victoria is absolutely amazing. Every time I work on her team things run effortlessly and I never have to worry about anything. She's on top of her timeline and where every piece of the puzzle should be fitting. Highly recommend.

Rebecca is incredible, hands down an exceptional person, and fantastic to work with. If you have any opportunity to work with Rebecca I highly recommend to do so! Rebecca has made the whole wedding planning process such an enjoyable & memorable experience and without Rebecca’s help, we would not have had such an amazing wedding day. Rebecca is the utmost professional, able to handle anything we could throw at her with her wealth of experience, her access/network to some of the best wedding vendors and simply her huge amount of knowledge about anything in the wedding industry. She was paramount in assisting us with navigating the selection of certain vendors, helping us with the event planning and logistics side, and outlining the steps needed to be properly married. We worked with Rebecca in preparation for our marriage in May 2023 where she served both as our wedding planner, day of coordinator, and officiant. In all three capacities she has gone above and beyond our level of expectations and has delivered to us one unforgettable wedding weekend that our closest friends, and family cannot stop raving about. As an officiant, over the course of a couple months Rebecca got to know us quite well as a couple and was able to craft a highly personalized and tailored wedding ceremony that intertwined many of the details she came to learn about our relationship including how we met, some of our anecdotes, having our personalities come across the ceremony, and the values and hopes we want to achieve in this marriage. It means the world that she was able to effectively craft a narrative but also deliver an eloquently, emotionally charged ceremony, in which guests could not stop saying how well structured and crafted it was but also how beautiful and thoughtful it was. As a day of coordinator and as our planner, all the logistics in the lead up and for the marriage day including our preparation for the wedding day, transportation & lodging, photography and videography covering us throughout our offsite and on-site photo locations, coordination of all the vendors for catering and décor and taking us to the finish line insuring cocktail hour, and dinner service all operated so smoothly without a hitch. Throughout the planning process, Rebecca always listened to any of our ideas or concerns, and was able to provided us sound reasoning and recommendations, while addressing our thoughts. She was always on top of everything, exceptionally organized and always keeping track of us making sure we were completing all the various wedding planning tasks needed. Working with her was so easy as she was so respectful, thoughtful, and kind to us. It is bittersweet as I will miss working with her and she simply did such an amazing job I wanted her to come celebrate with us on the dance floor, but she delivered a home-run wedding and one I know we will never forget. Rebecca if you read this you are the best!! Please book SPW & Rebecca because I cannot sing her praises and recommend her highly enough!

I hired Jokay for my husband's surprise 40th birthday and I was greatly impressed by her service. Since it was a surprise party, I could not plan the party myself.

She is very professional, she listens and she was extremely helpful by suggesting ideas and also linking with with amazing vendors and made the day special.
