“If I could give Lori from VRInspirations more than 5 stars for this review, I would! I came to Lori in April 2021 with a set date of 8/15/21, a venue, and a list of potential vendors. I knew that this would be a tough wedding to plan given the crazily short timeline (in the wedding planning world) in addition to the fact that I am a very picky person who has been planning my wedding in my head for years. Furthermore, I was planning this wedding in my hometown of Chicago while living in Seattle. I will be forever grateful that Lori took my wedding on without hesitation. If you are looking for a planner who will always make you feel like you are her only client, then Lori is the one for you. She never made me feel like I was bothering her and she answered any emails/frantic phone calls promptly and with a smile. She has so many contacts in the the Chicago wedding vendor community, and anytime Lori said, "No worries, I will take care of it", I knew that she would. She is so kind, friendly, and easy going, and even when I was going crazy toward the end of the process, she always remained calm and cool under pressure. She is such a thoughtful planner, and it was such a sweet surprise for me when she joined me at my dress fittings. She is incredibly organized and you can tell that her years of experience have taught her how to plan events seamlessly and efficiently. Lori truly cares about her brides and only wants the best for you, and you can feel it! Her husband/business partner John is also awesome, and they are an amazing team to have by your side. I sent her so many inspiration photos and ideas and she truly brought my dream wedding to life. I recommend Lori and the VRInspirations team without any reservations for your wedding or any special event; she will put all of her heart and soul into making it the best day of your life. I am so lucky to have found Lori and feel like I have made a friend for life.”
