It's easy to get lost in the whirlwind of wedding planning, isn't it? The seating charts, the flower arrangements, the playlist... it can all feel a bit overwhelming. 🌸🎶​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

But here's a little reminder for you: Your wedding day will be perfect, not because everything will go exactly as planned, but because it is YOUR day. A day filled with love, joy, and beautiful beginnings. 💖🥂

Even if the flowers aren't the exact shade you wanted, or if the DJ plays the wrong song, remember - those aren't the things people will remember. They'll remember the look in your eyes when you said 'I do', the way you laughed during your first dance, and the happiness that filled the room.

So, take a deep breath, trust the process, and know that no matter what, your day will be just as it should be - a celebration of love, commitment, and the start of an amazing journey together.

You can now book power planning sessions with us. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Power planning hours are great for couples who know they can do all the planning themselves but feel a bit overwhelmed with the process and could use some expert guidance. If you are worried about budgeting, what questions to ask your vendors, how to choose a venue, or if you are confused about how to bring your vision to life while creating the best experience for your guests, then these sessions are for you.

The best part is they can be done at any point in your planning journey. If you are starting out and finding it all overwhelming, maybe you have been planning for a bit and have some questions and would like to have a solid plan in place. Or you are close to your wedding date and need some guidance with your timeline and the logistics.

These two-hour sessions are also great if you are unsure if a planner is right for you. You can chat with us, see how we work, and understand our process better.

If you would like to book a power planning hour, you can use the following link: https://calendly.com/elegantandsophisticatedaffairs/120min

We are excited to announce some new services over the next few days. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
We are offering a few different elopement planning packages.

Our standard elopement package is great for anyone eloping in Chicago or the surrounding area. This is great for anyone who is feeling overwhelmed planning their elopement. We can assist with a simple elopement of two people or a grand elopement with twenty of your loved ones.

Virtual elopement is great for anyone looking for help with their elopement but doesn't need anyone onsite. We will help you find your vendors, understand the marriage laws, create a timeline, and more.

Destination elopement is perfect for the couple that is looking to get married in another state or internationally. We will help reduce the feeling of being overwhelmed by understanding all the marriage laws. We will source all the vendors and assist you with bringing your vision to life. We will be with you on your wedding day to ensure everything goes smoothly. We will be with you every step of the way.

When life throws you curveballs and you're just like, 'Can I get some help over here?' 🤣 ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
We've all had those moments, right?

When the to-do list seems never-ending, and all you want is a little assistance (or maybe a tropical vacation 🏝️).

But remember, it's okay to ask for help, it's okay to take a break.

And most importantly, it's okay to have a good laugh about it all!

So, who else is planning their wedding and feeling this right now?

Planning a wedding is like weaving a beautiful tapestry - every thread needs to be carefully chosen and placed. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
One of the most frequently asked questions we encounter is, "How far in advance should we book our wedding vendors?" The answer: as soon as possible! Vendors are crucial to making your big day come alive, and they book up fast. We recommend securing your most important vendors at least 9-12 months in advance to ensure you have the dream team for your dream day. 🗓️

Remember, it's not just about booking vendors; it's about building a team to bring your vision to life. If you're searching for a planner who can provide advice and support during your planning process, click the link in our bio.
