The Simply Elegant Group

Chicago, IL
  • Offers 7 services
  • Starts at $1,975

Lindsay has been in the events industry for years and has overseen hundreds of successful events. Her attention to detail and ability to handle any situation that arises with grace and ease allows her couples to relax and enjoy their wedding day. Lindsay not only plans weddings for our Simply Elegant couples but also trains our entire team of planners to ensure that every Simply Elegant wedding is flawless and our client's vision is fulfilled.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rojin was our “Wedding Day Coordinator” on April 2022. We absolutely can’t imagine our wedding day without her! She managed a major issue which had the potential to turn into a crisis. For some reason, our sound system was acting up, and our DJ couldn’t figure out the problem. She reacted to the incident very calmly and managed to find the standby technician quickly while we were just looking at each other trying to understand what had happened. And our guests responded to this very positively and it was like they were really enjoying themselves by singing and dancing while the issue was getting fixed. Without her, this two-minute incident could’ve ruin our night, but instead, now we have a beautiful memory of an issue that was outside of our control. Throughout that night, she was always there for us, by her attention to details. She was noticing small imperfections in Bride’s wedding dress while the Bride was dancing. She was fixing all those imperfections that she noticed on the fly. We didn’t even notice everything that she did, not till six months later when we were watching our wedding movie. We recommend her Wedding Day services.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

We heard about Besher Events through a friend of a friend and it was the best decision we could’ve possibly made throughout wedding planning!

She truly put so much effort into making our day perfect (she even made the sun come out!!) and if anything went wrong we didn’t even notice.

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.

Fierce Productions is a wedding planning and event production company that specializes in creating unique, unforgettable experiences in Chicago, Miami and beyond. 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.

We are event executors: organized, detail-oriented, list-makers who love nothing more than transforming your idea into an unforgettable occasion. Our role is to act as advocates for our clients. We support our clients’ desired goals in ways that make the most sense for each creative vision. We focus on managing all the logistical details – timelines, contract reviews, set up – to ensure nothing falls through the cracks on your big day.

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 knew when I started wedding planning that I wanted a Month-of-Coordinator on our side! It was an extra expense for us, but one that I knew would take away some stress on the day of. Little did I know, that working with Justine and Lauren of TGT, would become the single best thing I did to set our wedding day up for success! Justine did more behind the scenes than I could have ever imagined, and was there every single step of the way, with helpful plans, lists, constant reassurance and supportive words. Not only did she take what felt like the weight of the world off my shoulders, she was a sounding board for worries and ideas, and my biggest hype-gal! She was by my side when I wasn't feeling well, and executed a last minute wardrobe alteration. She truly went above and beyond to give us the best day ever, and I could go on and on (and in tears!) talking about how amazing she is, and how relieved I felt the whole month leading up to our wedding, knowing we had her support. Don't even think twice, hiring TGT was the best decision we made, and you will be so glad that you did it too!

I hired Gthr for day of coordination a few months before my wedding. I’m a very hands on bride who planned every detail of my wedding, but am so thankful I hired Sarah & her team. I did have some last minute decor questions & requests and Gthr partnered with me on making them a reality! We worked together on floral design, beautiful vine walls, additional lighting, and everything in between. Sarah had a baby a week before my wedding and still showed up, helped with set up, and assisted in managing last minute hiccups and issues with my vendors. She went above & beyond. I highly recommend hiring her team for your next event!

I recently had the opportunity to collaborate Before You Say I Do, and I’m thrilled to say it was a fantastic experience! Their fresh approach to wedding planning, coupled with their enthusiasm and commitment, truly set them apart. Despite being new on the scene, their team’s professionalism and innovative ideas made a significant impact on the success of the event. I’m excited to see this business flourish and become a go-to choice for couples seeking exceptional wedding planning 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!

Becca helped us with our wedding timelines and as someone who hasn't planned a wedding before, she made things so easy to understand! Becca went over everything that we do and don't want included and made sure that it was all expressed in the timeline. She is super professional, kind and easy to work with! Highly recommend working with Yes To I Do!!

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. She even sewed one of the groom's cousins back into her dress at the reception. Sholeh is a dream come true. We could truly write pages about how wonderful she truly is. Believe us when we say that you must must must hire Sholeh!

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!!!

Isabel and the rest of her team were SO kind, supportive, and on top of things. Additionally, they do rentals which ended up working so well with the vision I had for the day.

She was THE MOST PERFECT planner/friend/rock to lean on/shoulder to cry on/sound board - the list goes on and on! From the very first call we had with her we knew she was the perfect person for us. She understood our vibe from the very beginning and not once did she let us stray and get all jumbled - because Pinterest and Instagram will do that to you! Stephany was there to help us pick the best vendors, she helped us read through all of the many contracts, she was there through several venue walkthroughs and was available literally all times of the day for email and text! She became my best friend throughout this stressful yet joyous time! Leading up to the day, we had our fair share of drama within our wedding parties and such but Stephany was there to keep us calm and collected. She helped us pivot as much as possible to make sure it’d all be seamless! The day of the wedding started really smooth and then went a little bumpy, yet not once did Stephany stress me out or hit me with a ton of questions. She handled everything like the girl boss she is! If you are looking for the smartest, sweetest, most honest person to help facilitate your wedding, look no further! Stephany is your person! She is THE LITERAL BEST. Please do yourself a favor and book her! We LOVED working with her and are sad that it’s all over! Maybe we’ll bug Stephany for help with a dreamy baby shower! (When it’s time for that haha.)

Aviva was always prompt in responding to emails and calls, making us feel reassured and valued. Her organizational skills are commendable, and she kept everything on track, ensuring that all the moving parts came together seamlessly on the big day. One of the standout qualities of Aviva is her ability to handle unexpected challenges with grace. From minor hiccups to last-minute adjustments, she navigated everything with a calm and composed demeanor, allowing us to fully enjoy our special day without any worries. What truly set Aviva apart was her unique ability to save us money without compromising on the quality of our wedding. Aviva, suggested skipping the traditional florist and took charge of the floral arrangements herself. Her past experience as a florist added a special touch, as she seamlessly blended her creative ideas with our vision, resulting in stunning floral arrangements that exceeded our expectations. Aviva's creativity went beyond the floral arrangements. Recognizing the importance of incorporating my Filipino culture into the ceremony, she suggested the use of "Abaniko," a traditional Filipino hand fan. This thoughtful addition added a personal and cultural touch to the ceremony, making it even more meaningful for us and our guests. Aviva's ability to infuse cultural elements into the celebration demonstrated a deep understanding of my background and a commitment to making my wedding day a reflection of who we are. As residents of Las Vegas, the idea of a destination wedding seemed like a distant dream. However, with Aviva's assistance, we were able to turn this dream into a reality by getting married in Florida. Aviva's expert budgeting skills and resourcefulness allowed us to afford a destination wedding while staying within our financial means. While we acknowledge that weddings or events are not always perfect, we are grateful that ours came pretty close, thanks to Aviva and the team. Life will continue to throw hardships our way, but what's most important is how we react to them. Aviva exemplified the essence of embracing imperfections with a positive attitude. Her ability to navigate challenges seamlessly not only made our wedding day perfect but also served as a valuable life lesson. In summary, Aviva is not just a wedding planner, she is a dream-weaver, turning your vision into a reality. Her professionalism, creativity, and genuine passion for what she does, set her apart in the industry. If you're looking for a wedding planner who will go above and beyond to make your special day truly magical and impart valuable life lessons along the way, Aviva is the one to choose. Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to Aviva and her entire team for making our destination wedding an unforgettable and joyous occasion.

We utilized Kirsten and the Opal Affair for day of wedding coordination and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. At times I was worried I had piled a bit too much on her plate, but she executed my vision PERFECTLY. In addition to her eye for design, she was always two steps ahead, anticipating our needs and taking initiative to get it done. It was the best investment I made for our wedding day, and we truly could not have done it without her.
