Naturally Yours Events

I cannot say enough great things about Naturally Yours Events. Our planner Kristen was our guardian angel when is came to all things wedding planning. She made everything so step-by-step easy and understandable the entire planning timeline, she was always available and prompt in her communication and thanks to her we felt literally no stress about anything leading up to our big day. If you are thinking about using a planner, look no further. They have you covered and will make your special event so easy and care free allowing you to soak up all the moments instead of worrying about everything else. Thanks again Naturally Yours Events team! Love you Kristen!!!

Working with Carlene from Naturally Yours Events at both The Rookery and Garfield Park Conservatory was an absolute delight. Carlenes ability to blend the unique vibes of these two iconic Chicago venues with each couples personality made each wedding feel incredibly special and personal. Her attention to detail, creativity, and genuine enthusiasm for her work shine through in every aspect of the planning and execution. As a wedding photographer, capturing the beautiful, heartfelt moments that Carlene and her team create is always a joy. The care they put into making every wedding a reflection of the couples love story makes my job not only easier but so much more fulfilling. I cant recommend Naturally Yours Events enough for any couple looking for a wedding thats both beautifully planned and deeply personal. Lauren Ashley Studios

Hiring Naturally Yours Events was the best decision I've made in my life! (Okay, second best decision after the "I Do's"...) The Day Of Coordination package allowed us to actually enjoy our wedding, which I'm so thankful for in hindsight. We worked with Katie who was a delight, insightful, and kind. Don't do it all yourself - hiring these fantastic professionals will truly make your wedding day even more magical!

Katie was such a pleasure to work with through the entire planning process and on our wedding day. She was not only receptive to our feedback and wishes but was able to add important details based on her previous experience. She was thorough in her communication with our vendors and made sure everything went off without missing a beat. It made the day that much more special knowing we didn't have to worry about so many details and we could trust her to ensure a smooth ceremony/reception. I would recommend Katie and Naturally Yours Events 10/10 times, thank you again Katie!!

If I could give more than five stars, I would. We hired Naturally Yours Events for our day-of coordination for our ~130 person wedding, and it was the best decision we ever made. If you're reading these reviews and wondering if you should reach out to them for your wedding: Yes, you should. When an event is executed flawlessly, it's most likely because someone was doing a lot of hard work behind the scenes to make sure everything goes smoothly. In our case, we were so lucky that that person was Mel. My husband and I were able to let go and revel in the celebration, and we couldn't have done that without Mel's careful coordination. She was so well organized, communicative, calm, and patient throughout the whole process. She does so much more than just show up on the day of the event. She started working with us weeks before to make sure we had everything in order for the big day (vendors, contracts, timelines, seating charts, logistics, rings, gifts, wardrobe, wedding license, photography shot lists, and on, and on, and on). As we got closer to the event, she oversaw the logistics, corresponding with all the vendors, making sure there weren't any communication gaps, and ensuring everyone knew where to go and when to be there. She and her assistant even set out all of my DIY decorations. No matter what your budget is, hiring a day-of coordinator will help to ensure that you get the most value out of the cost of your wedding. My husband and I, our guests, and our friends were able to be fully present on our wedding day, and it was such a gift. We had time to taste the food, drink our wine, dance, and spend time with our guests, and we couldn't have done that if Mel hadn't been there to oversee all of the details throughout the day.
