Event Services for the Social Butterfly

Weddings

In today’s economy, I understand that brides and grooms are working with smaller budgets and taking on more tasks themselves. My packaged services are tailored accordingly.

As a second-generation wedding planner, I offer what I call "task coaching" - providing Chicago and Southwest Michigan brides and grooms with documents and discussions that clearly guide you through wedding tasks, and empower you to make decisions quickly and efficiently. I work with you to create an aesthetic identity for your event, and then provide vendor recommendations. Finally, I offer day-of coordination to help you achieve a distinctive celebration. As I implement your day-of vision, you will have more time to focus on family, friends and the significance of the day.

Parties and Celebrations

Celebrating the special occasions in life is a precious undertaking. I provide hourly consulting services to help you "host a memorable event", including:

* Graduations

* Retirement parties

* Children’s birthdays

* Milestone birthdays

I also provide brainstorming sessions for truly special and intimate occasions such as proposals, anniversaries and special dates. For men embarking on a proposal, it never hurts to consult with a female to help plan the details for a truly special evening for two.

Small Business Event Consulting

I have an appreciation for the independent spirit of locally-owned small businesses, and understand your need for singular and sophisticated events. I consult with business clients for a variety of event needs, including:

* Launch parties

* Open houses for boutiques, galleries and studios

* Promotional events for restaurants
