Meet Kristin Crooks, owner and lead planner of Besher Events. ​ Besher was a nickname given to Kristin by her father who passed away on 9/11/16. After he passed away, Kristin decided to pursue her passion while honoring her dad, by launching her own event planning company on 9/11/17. ​ Kristin always knew event planning was her passion. Throughout her life, she was constantly organizing get-togethers and events for her friends and family. During college, she took her event planning a step further and interned at a major Chicago event planning business, where she was able to learn the tricks of the trade.

In three words: Creative, Efficient, Organized

    Besher Events was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, they were incredibly responsive, dependable, and proactive in their communication, always keeping us informed and on track. Their attention to detail, thoughtfulness, and organizational skills were truly impressive - they helped us tie our color palette together seamlessly and were a calming presence during stressful moments, offering creative solutions. Besher Events went above and beyond to ensure our special day was everything we dreamed of and more. We cannot recommend them highly enough.

    A friend of mine recommended Besher Events after she heard that I got engaged. At first, I wasn't sure if I wanted to hire a wedding planner but I ended up deciding to do it in order to help things run smoothly and I am SO glad I did! Kristin kept me on track throughout the entire process and helped with everything from finding vendors in my budget, to planning the aesthetics of the wedding, to having meetings with vendors, and even helped us plan/choreograph our surprise first dance! It was a total hit with our guests and set the tone for a full dance floor all night long. Kristin knows what she's doing when it comes to the wedding planning process and dealing with vendors. If you're considering hiring her for your wedding - DO IT!

  • Best experience & wedding day!!

    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! Kristin immediately started suggesting and contacting vendors, and helping come up with the theme/design for the whole wedding. We gave her general ideas and lots of pictures off Pinterest and she made it all come to life. 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. Not only is Kristin an amazing wedding planner, but she was also an amazing friend to lean on for the entire 1.5 years of planning. We’ve gotten SO many compliments about how our wedding turned out and also how well organized it was. We are truly blessed to have been able to work with Besher Events!!

    If you are in search of a wedding planner with amazing attention to detail, utmost professionalism, and amazing vendor references, look no further than Besher Events. We worked directly with the owner and her assistant to plan our entire wedding and I can’t thank them enough for making my wedding dreams a reality. We were pretty new to the wedding scene in general, but Besher Events made sure to provide a hassle-free, low-stress planning experience for me and my now-husband. From recommending all of our stellar vendors to laughing and working with us through this journey, I can say for certain that my wedding wouldn’t have been what it was without Besher Events. All of our guest couldn’t stop commenting on how amazing our wedding was, and we thank and owe our gratitude to all that Besher Events provided for us on our special day.
