CHICAGO WEDDING: EMMA & GIANCARLO WEDDING AT AN ICONIC HOTEL

Saturday, February 20, 2021

I can't even begin to say how AMAZING working with Barbara was.

"I am not exaggerating when I say we would have been completely lost without her.

I was definitely a difficult bride, in that we were planning at a distance and balancing very very busy work schedules as we planned, but despite my being a stressed, neurotic mess at times, Barbara went above & beyond to ensure that our big day went off without a hitch.

She was also amazing at handling some very 'strong' (read: stubborn) voices from the peanut gallery in both sides of the family, and took everything in stride (in situations where even I wanted to strangle people, and I'm related to them!).

She made me feel important & I felt the whole time that our wedding was a priority for her - never rushed, never stressed, and never like 'just another client'.

From the big stuff (chasing down vendors, figuring out all the logistics, reminding me of deadlines that slipped my mind) to the tiniest of details (I forgot all the batteries for my flameless candles at home on the day of, and she still managed to make sure the hall looked STUNNING), she handled everything with outstanding professionalism, friendliness, and a calm demeanor that made me feel completely at ease & confident that everything was going to be okay...

And it was more than okay - it was AMAZING"

THE CALM IN THE STORM

‍

Barbara was amazing.

She was patient, kind, helpful, friendly and professional.

She had a keen eye for the decor and as well as all other details. She has excellent taste.

She was able to quickly readjust things the day of when anything went wrong all with great success and a calm pleasant manner.

She was the calm in the storm of everyone’s little panics and anxieties. She saw to it that things ran smoothly from the background leaving us free to enjoy the day.

I would highly recommend her as your Chicago Wedding Planner for any event planning or day-of coordination services."

The Mother of the bride, Daniela
