About Yes to I Do
Yes to I Do
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!
With personal experience planning my own wedding and assisting friends and family with theirs, I realized the importance of a truly personalized and stress-free wedding planning experience. As a newly certified planner with experience planning fundraising events, parties, and weddings, I knew it was time to bring a fresh and unique perspective to wedding planning. I also offer customized planning packages to fit your specific needs and budget.
In three words: Collaborative, Organized, Supportive

TRULY THE BEST!
Working with Rebecca was truly a dream come true! From start to finish, she provided excellent service, making the entire wedding planning process not only stress-free but incredibly fun. We actually looked forward to our monthly meetings and now wish we could keep having them! Rebecca took care of every detail with such expertise and enthusiasm, always making us feel supported and excited for our big day. She’s organized, creative, and genuinely invested in making each moment perfect. If you’re looking for someone to make your wedding planning journey easy and enjoyable, we HIGHLY recommend Rebecca!
Response from vendor•Nov 1, 2024Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We are thrilled to hear that you had a great experience with Yes To I Do. We look forward to assisting you with future events!Best Day of Coordinator!
Hiring Rebecca as our day-of coordinator was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process! When my husband and I first began planning our wedding, we thought we could handle everything with help from our family. However, we quickly realized we were in over our heads and needed professional help. Enter Rebecca! From the start, it was clear Rebecca was just as excited to work with us as we were to work with her. She was always willing to jump on a call to ease my stress and keep me organized. Her thoughtful questions (many I would never have considered) helped ensure we were fully prepared. Rebecca also worked closely with our vendors to create a seamless timeline for the day. On the wedding day itself, Rebecca and her wonderful assistant, Donna, did everything possible to bring my vision to life. They alleviated so much stress for us not just on the big day but in the weeks leading up to it. From setup to tear down, they over-delivered on everything. Many of our friends and family even commented on how amazing they were! Reflecting on our wedding day, I am forever grateful we had the Yes to I Do team by our side. Rebecca is an absolute joy to work with, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and caring coordinator!
Response from vendor•Oct 31, 2024Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are thrilled to hear that you loved your experience with us. Your kind words mean a lot to our team!Amazing planner
100000% recommend YES TO I DO for your big day! Easy to communicate! Took it upon herself to communicate with the vendors when booked! Relived stress when needed! Such a beautiful job decorating as well!
Response from vendor•Oct 31, 2024Wow! We are blown away by your review. Thank you for choosing Yes To I Do. We can’t wait to help with future events and create more wonderful memories together.Great coordinator!
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!
Response from vendor•Oct 31, 2024Thank you so much! It was a pleasure working with you both!
