Ann Marie is an exceptional event orchestrator. I've been with Kehoe Designs for 20 years designing luxury events and weddings with her, and in that time, I've not come across another person that is as professional, exquisitely organized, and talented as a manager of details as she is. If you are looking for someone to work with that will be an advocate for you but will also "handle it" when it comes to your event or wedding, I urge you not to look further. In my opinion, the goal of a wedding or event planner is to navigate you through all the tough decisions and make your life easier. Ann Marie will do that for you in spades.

I worked with Faith for day of coordination. Faith was incredible throughout the whole process. We has several meetings to discuss vendors, timelines, and every detail. She reached out to all of our vendors and asked questions I never thought to ask. Our families, bridal party and everyone said how easy faith was to work with and how smoothly she had the whole day running. I can’t recommend them highly enough. They were incredibly easy to work with and made everything run so smoothly!

Yes to I Do

Lakemoor, IL
  • Offers 5 services

I am a certified wedding planner with a passion for learning. It all started over 10 years ago when I worked as a birthday party host at a park district, eventually expanding to fundraising events, showers, and weddings. My passion for weddings and events grew, and I began helping friends and family with their weddings. Now, I run my own business! There is nothing I love more than seeing an idea come to life! When I'm not planning weddings, you'll find me cuddling with my baby, enjoying the show Friends under a cozy blanket, or sharing a meal with a glass (or two) of wine with my husband. I'd love to chat and learn more about you!

We hired Rebecca as our day-of coordinator, and she far exceeded our expectations. She was open to our vision and willing to work with us on our own terms. She stepped in where we wanted, but happily left things up to us when we communicated that it was something we wanted to do ourselves. She kept track of all of our items and tasks that needed to be done at the end of the evening, and supervised the teardown of the reception space without us having to think about anything. She alleviated so much stress for us, particularly on the wedding day and in the two weeks leading up to our wedding, and we are so happy that we hired her. She is a joy to work with!

gthr has easily been our best choice when picking our first vendor. We felt like we were in the best hands from day one. They took our vision to heart and added valuable insights that elevated our wedding day. Sarah has been working with us since day 1 of our wedding planning, has been with us to check out venues, and has taken time to help us manage all the moving parts when planning a wedding. She has been the kindest and most patient person we’ve ever worked with! On the wedding day, alongside of Sarah, we also had the help of Raleigh who had kept everything working smoothly on the day of our wedding. She was there the whole day from getting ready to cleaning up the venue. She was always present when needed, helped keep the dress together throughout the night, and made sure every detail of the wedding was perfectly fitting to the vision we worked on together. It was truly a stressless day for us because they both were working so well in the background of it all! Beyond both of their professional talents, they were both such warm people. They had our backs when our wedding day started off with flash flooding and torrential rains; they kept things moving forward, on time, and (most importantly) kept our spirits up! They made sure that our wedding was nothing short of a fairytale. If you’re looking for wedding coordinators who go above and beyond for you, choose gthr! They made our day truly remarkable and unforgettable. We can’t thank you both enough! With heartfelt thanks, Amanda & Ben

The title says it all... Emily is IN-CRED-I-BLE!!! We worked with Emily for well over a year on our wedding and she handled anything and everything that we needed help with. Whether it was finding vendors/venues and contacting them, handling paperwork, setting up calls, tours, etc., Emily put our mind at ease with it and took care of it. She's also incredibly personable and fun to talk to! By the time our wedding came, it was bittersweet because we had looked forward to our weekly calls with her! On the day of our wedding Emily was a superhero..... She helped set things up, make sure everything ran smoothly, helped tear down at the end of the night, and packed our car with decorations and things we had brought for us so we had nothing to worry about. We HIGHLY highly highly (I'll say again) HIGHLY recommend hiring Emily for ANY event, but definitely hire her if you're getting married!! We recommended her to all of our friends—she truly helped make our wedding an incredible experience!!

Alexa and her team are incredible! Through the entire process she was incredibly detail orientated, engaging, supportive, and personable! I like to think I was a relatively lowkey bride, but I still don't know what I would've done without her and her team the day of the wedding - having them there just made the day even more easy and seamless. I have a very supportive family where my mom and aunts would've been more than willing to step in and help out, but having Alexa and her team there allowed my family to enjoy the day without the hassle of setting up/keeping everyone organized. Seriously cannot say enough good things! Easily the easiest easiest and best decision to work with them! I would without a doubt recommend Monarch Creative Events to anyone!

Our coordinator, Hanh, was absolutely marvelous! She was attentive, fun, and made us feel so taken care of. We used SEG for their day-of coordinator services, but Hanh made it feel like so much more. I would highly recommend her! The deducted star was due to some communication difficulties we had with SEG (not Hanh!). We had a coordinator originally assigned to us, but when one of our vendors couldn't get a hold of our original coordinator, we reached out to SEG and found out that coordinator was no longer with SEG. I wish SEG had been proactive in letting us know when our coordinator left; even though we only had day-of services, our vendors still needed our contact from SEG in the months before the wedding.

I simply cannot imagine our wedding day without THEE Michelle Hamlin, an absolutely icon, speedwalking around the venue in her sparkly white shoes, making. It. All. Happen. If you are looking for a day/month-of coordinator or planner, or if you're on the fence wondering if you need one, I have three words for you: Go For Hamlin. She is upbeat, genuine, passionate, and fun -- but she also means business. She's both the most organized and together professional you'll ever meet AND will banter with you about Vanderpump Rules. Michelle truly truly cared about us as a couple and about helping us throw OUR own unique wedding. She's an incredibly responsive and talented communicator, which meant she became our go-to person for absolutely everything during the planning process, from big picture questions to little details we never even considered. She also connected us with some unbelievably talented and delightful other vendors. On our wedding day, she giggled with me as I took photos in the hotel, then buzzed over to the venue where she flawlessly executed the whole event EXACTLY on time with a sense of joy. When required to think on her feet (which is inevitable), she never missed a beat or broke a bead of sweat. What resulted was a wedding day that was even more perfect than we could ever dream up. I truly mean it when I say I have no idea how we'd have done it without her. We love Michelle Hamlin!!!

We were born from lessons learned by tackling the most important wedding to date; my own. A planner to my core, I never considered the need for assistance when planning and executing my wedding. And while I threw a truly great party, it came at the expense of me enjoying my own wedding. I took away from the experience the hard truth that just because I could, didn’t mean I should, and have turned that into something that I truly love; watching other couples bask in their moment, stress-free. We offer a variety of wedding and honeymoon services with the simple mission of creating beautiful, unique events that feel as good as they look.

Lisa was a godsend for my wedding. A lot of planners I had consulted with were a little antiquated and wanted to force their vision upon me. I had already secured a handful of major items for my wedding: venue, food, music, photographer. Lisa was so helpful as she provides a new fresh prospective to planning and executing - conscious of both style and budget. She's highly adept at being both extremely down to earth and approachable yet highly professional when dealing with difficult vendors. In the end, Lisa helped me finalize all of the nitty gritty details for the wedding weekend and executed everything flawlessly. I'd highly recommend her services and support for your planning needs!

I 100% recommend Sarah! My biggest regret of my wedding was not finding and hiring her sooner! During our consultation (and every call or text afterwards) I felt like I was talking to a friend. You can tell she truly loves what she does. She took SO much stress off me and my family. She created our day of plan, set up the decor, took it down, brought gifts to our car, was the main contact for vendors and so much more. Even my dad who is a money pincher said he was really glad we had her the day of. She also helped direct our rehearsal. Having a huge party that really helped! Seriously hire her ASAP! I’ve told everyone I’ve talked to about the wedding how amazing she is and I will tell my friends again once it’s their turn to get married. My family and I could enjoy ourselves the whole day because we could trust all the logistics were handled by Sarah. Best decision I made while planning. Thank you so much!!

Our Services include: Glam Your Space- Event Design and Event Decor that compliments the event experience Wow Your Guests- Event Planning and Management that covers you from A to Z.

As an Entertainment Director/Event Manager myself, I’m blown away by Franklin. It was important for me to hire someone I could trust to handle the organization for my wedding day. After our first meeting with Franklin, I knew he understood what we wanted. I was thrilled to know he was available for our wedding, and I feel like we couldn’t have made a better choice. Before the wedding day, I was so relieved when Franklin came over to pick up all the decor. He even stopped by on the morning of the wedding to check on us and pick up any last-minute items. This alone really touched me because many people don’t go that extra mile, but Franklin does! I was seriously stressing about how to get those items delivered, and Franklin came right along and eased all that stress! He took our ideas and exceeded our expectations. We are Funko Pop collectors, so we wanted a fun way to incorporate them into our wedding decor, and he did it with ease. He surprised us several times throughout the event, and those memories are some of my favorite moments. When he revealed the reception dining room, which he had decorated for us, I was filled with chills. I couldn’t believe he took my simple idea and made it look so GRAND; it was next level. Then we walked over to the cookie and cake table, where I was seriously at a loss for words. I was blown away by the details he displayed in his decorating. It seemed like a scene from a movie. Before walking down the aisle, we learned that one of our food caterers was extremely late delivering the food and potentially wasn’t going to deliver it at all. Franklin was calm but still urgent in his demeanor, and I totally appreciated his proactive professionalism. Moments like these can really test any event coordinator's patience and could cause a domino effect. I don’t know exactly what happened or what he did, but all the food was there and ready to be served when it was time to eat. Our guests LOVED our wedding. They all mentioned how different and elevated our wedding was, and I’m 100% sure that had a lot to do with Franklin’s hard work. We wanted something unique, and he delivered. Overall, I’m truly grateful to have met Franklin and want to also shine some light on his assistant, Will. Both of their A, fun, efficacious attitudes just make everything better. I was able to kick back and watch my wedding day unfold beautifully. For those who work in events/entertainment, you know how hard it is to go to any event and not feel like you’re working, especially your own event (lol). Franklin is a star, and I’m sure he’s going to go far in the event business. He understands the importance of an event and how each event is personally unique. Most importantly, he takes the time to know and understand his clients.

America is such an amazing person to work with. Wanted to have a wedding of about 150 people in the Chicago Metropolitan area and a budget of 22,000 USD (just wanna say that keeping to the budget was my main goal). This can be typically difficult given the cost of venues and things in the Chicago area. America helped find a glamorous ball-style venue (my preference) that also had an outside lake as a great view for the ceremony. The venue also catered to most of the other needs at a reasonable price. Furthermore, we met regularly with America to go over what our expectations of each vendor would be, and with a great understanding of what we wanted, she was resourceful in getting the appropriate vendors and negotiating a good price with them. She made sure that within the short period of planning (we contacted her about 4 months before the wedding), every step of the plan towards the wedding day was carried out in a timely manner with nothing left unattended to... I mean nothing. On the day of the wedding, she drew up a great timeline and went above and beyond to ensure all went according to plan timely and we were not stressed out. It was such a good and memorable event that we received numerous compliments on it. With her being very affordable for the service she gives and she being intentionally involved in everything, we definitely kept to budget and had better than the wedding we had hoped for. She was on top of her game from start to finish . She isn't only an event planner to us but is also a friend. I thank God for you america and for all you did. These few words cannot fully explain how excellent you are in what you do.

We are a team made up of creative people who are skilled in the art of event planning and design. We are always looking for ways to think outside the box and do the unexpected. Fierce Productions was founded in 2015 by Laura Reitsma, proud Cuban-American Owner. Laura dreamt of creating an event production company that was fueled by her love of the theater. She wanted to make an impact and start a business that could give back to LGBTQIAP and theater communities.

It's hard to put to words how much we appreciate Laura and the Fierce team, so we'll just share the text we sent Laura the day after our wedding: "Laura, it feels like the most common piece of advice people give about weddings is that, 'something will go wrong, just expect that'. However, you delivered a perfect wedding. We wouldn’t have changed a single thing. What you accomplished was absolutely extraordinary. Complete magic. We thought we knew exactly what to expect, but it was so much more than we dreamed of. We are so proud of what we created with you. It left guests feeling so grateful to have experienced something so unique and loving. They’re saying it was the coolest experience and best party they’ve ever been to." A few other highlights of working with Laura and the Fierce Team: - She doesn't just see it as her job to plan the wedding; she sees it as her job to allow you to be present during the big day. Many say "it all went so fast," when remembering their wedding, but it didn't feel like that for us because Laura made sure we could be present. - She respected our vision like it was her own and protected every piece of it. - By the time the wedding arrived, she was our friend--not a vendor. And that made the experience that day even cooler. Imagine having your friend send you down the aisle...rather than someone your hired. We would hire Fierce a million times over.

Colleen Fahy was our coordinator, and she was absolutely incredible. Her guidance, her input, her sweet personality, her organizational skills, her foresight, her patience, her flexibility, her thoughtfulness, her ability to put us at ease… all made her so wonderful to work with. I didn’t worry about a single thing on wedding day, because I truly trusted that Colleen had helped us prepare so well, and that anything that would come up she would handle. And she sure did!! Colleen handled a lot of issues that arose on wedding day without us knowing!! She handled all communication with our vendors leading up to the wedding which was a HUGE burden off of our shoulders. Colleen spared us a lot of stress, and we’re so grateful that she allowed us to be in the moment and enjoy every minute of the day. So many people in my bridal party / other guests at the wedding mentioned how amazing Colleen was!! The bridal party / other VIP's LOVED the detailed timeline/itinerary that Colleen prepared and distributed prior to the wedding. People knew where to be and when, and didn't have to reach out to me with small questions as a result. People around us noticed and appreciated all that she and her team did, and we certainly did, too. AND, Colleen did it all with a calming presence and a smile on her face. We were so impressed. Colleen and Joan humored my many overly detailed questions, requests, anxieties, etc.! I honestly felt like nothing slipped through the cracks on our wedding weekend because Colleen and her team were there to catch it all. She remembered and honored everything we mentioned to her over the past few months (which was A LOT!)! We could go on and on... 100% recommend Five Grain Events and Colleen Fahy was an absolute GEM.

I have been a wedding planner for over 20 years. I am here to support your ideas and help you find ways to make your wedding day the experience you imagine. I also specialize in planning weddings in a very short amount of time. Its a wonderful challenge and you’ll receive no judgement from me about your timelines! There are no geographic limitations. I’m comfortable working remotely for the planning process and have traveled extensively domestically and abroad. I have supported people from all backgrounds in their journey towards a lifetime of love together. I network extensively with other vendors & have a passion for collaboration.

If there is one decision you must make for your wedding, you must hire Sholeh as your wedding planner or coordinator. Sholeh is everything that every good planner should be. She is organized, thoughtful, flexible, down-to-earth, detail oriented, solution oriented, and extremely kind. She was recommended to us by our wedding venue and to say we were not disappointed would be the understatement of the century. Initially, we hired Sholeh for half-day coordination services, and planned to have the in-house reception planner handle the remainder of the day. But when the venue coordinator fell through, we immediately called Sholeh in a panic and she said, "Don't worry, consider me your full-day coordinator now." She hardly even charged us a substantial upcharge for planning the entire day. On the day of the wedding, she truly felt like family. She arrived on-time, with her wagon full of supplies, ready and eager to help. She made sure everyone was fed, went out of her way to spend quality time with the mother of the bride and bride's sister, and executed every detail to perfection.

Veronica is truly the best wedding coordinator out there. She and her team went above and beyond and my wedding day was absolutely perfect!! Veronica was involved with the wedding planning months beforehand (unlike most wedding coordinators I spoke to!) and she was so detailed and organized that she truly put my type-A personality at ease!!! I knew I was in the best of hands after our first conversation and on the wedding day I was completely relaxed because I knew I could trust her to handle any hiccups. She also did my floral arrangements and was present at all the meetings with the venue and caterer to make sure that everyone was aligned on my vision. When she showed me the reception hall before my guests arrived it took my breath away-- it was even better than I envisioned!!! Her eye for detail is incredible and my reception decorations were breathtaking. I also have to acknowledge Veronica's assistant Sharae because she too was the best ever-- I definitely walked away from my wedding weekend with a new best friend. Sharae kept me calm and laughing on my wedding day and made the entire pre-ceremony experience SO MUCH FUN!!! Honestly, my wedding day would have felt much different if Sharae wasn't there. I actually got emotional saying goodbye because she was such an important part of my day too. I never thought I would grow so close to a wedding vendor, but I now consider Veronica, Sharae, and the entire Exquisitely Designed Events team like family. They truly made my wedding the best day ever!!!

I am a type-A, particular, and organized person, which was only amplified when it came to wedding planning. We started working with Amanda one year out from our wedding day and she hit the ground running with checklists, timeline planning, and vendor recommendations. We talked through several timeline options and her quarterly check-ins kept us on track with the endless wedding to-do's. On the actual day of, Amanda and her team made us feel so calm and collected throughout the Taste of Chicago traffic, Lake Shore Drive accidents, and wrangling 20 men together for a choreographed dance at the reception. She even bustled my dress with safety pins at cocktail hour after realizing that it was a bit too long. I think the best testament to APE's work is that I never knew - and still don't know - of a single thing that went wrong on our wedding day. Everything was handled with utmost professionalism and without involving myself or my bridal party/family, allowing everyone to sit back and enjoy the celebration. I could not recommend APE, especially Amanda, Mimi, and Annie, any more.

Hiring Sonya was the best thing we did while planning our wedding! I can’t begin to describe how amazing she is- she listens to every single detail asked for and delivers beyond what she promised. The night before our wedding we realized the lawn was undergoing some treatment and the grass got burnt, she actually spray painted the aisle so that we get a green lawn for our pictures. That’s just one example of her exceptional work. I could not have done my wedding without Sonya!
