While we took a few weeks of rest here at Shh Events we are ready to go back and fall in love with our sweet B&B’s celebration from November! We got to work at one of our absolutely favorite places with one of the most talented florist and our favorite thing of all- pizza!! The day was as sweet and amazing as the homemade cookies we had for dessert. Cheers to the newlyweds! We ❤️ you!

Obsessed with my BB’s! Not only was planning with them so much fun and so easy (love a fellow excel-gal), but who they are as individuals made working with them even more worthwhile. They are committed to making the world a better place and we are all better for it. Celebrating their love was easy, because to know them is to want nothing more than love and victories for them both!
Mazel and congrats and all the best to a wonderful next chapter!!!

Last weekend was so beautiful! Daisy and Brendan did a wonderful and intentional job of blending their cultures, lots of lush greens and Irish accents for B and gorgeous bright colors for Daisy’s Mexican roots. Stan Mansion looked absolutely incredible and the evening was a blast!! So grateful to be a part of it!

September you were way too good to us!!!
I remember starting this business and saying, I would love to do 12 events in the year. That will feel right. And then we grew, and grew, and it’s in large part thanks to my incredibly wonderful clients and their friends and families and my insanely magical vendor friends for the referrals, but it’s also because we took a risk this year and said that @shh.events (and I) were ready to do this thing full time. It has been beyond fulfilling.
I was honored to have such a banging September filled with the most incredible people. I can’t wait to repeat this in October (and sleep in November ha!)
Congratulations to you all, to the teams that pulled off this incredible month, to MY team, my family and in particular my husband who rocks the dad role to my Libra babes (as if September wasn’t packed I went ahead and had twins who happen to have a September birthday!)
Thank you, thank you! I love you all!
Steph 🤍🪩

What an absolutely perfect day for Diandra and Tim! I can’t remember the last time I worked with this big of a vendor team, and there were certainly things we couldn’t have predicted (like a major rental closure), but each and every one of these team members hit it way out of the park!!
I say all the time that my brides make my job easy, but Diandra was a new level with a gorgeously curated wedding binder and tons of TikTok videos! She was such a blast to plan with, and most importantly, she trusted me to take her ideas and run with them- my absolutely favorite trait in a bride! I am so thankful for her and Tim, they made planning so much fun.
To the talented crew that helped make this day happen, you’re amazing!

Last Sunday may have poured but it did not stop this lovely couple from having the BEST DAY!! It is always so fulfilling when a vision comes to life, and this bowed and pearled party was such a huge hit! Congratulations to D + N on an incredible first day as husband and wife! Cheers!
Incredible vendor team ✨

To my sweet Georgie and Hayden, who I fell absolutely in love with months ago and who we celebrated last Saturday- thank you for being all of the good in the world, the badass-ness of the service industry, and the perfect example that every corn has its dog.
It was so magical being a part of this journey with you both, and we can’t wait to see what this new chapter holds for you xoxo
Congratulations!!
Wonderful crew

Another amazing weekend in the books!!
Kayla and Phill celebrated their wedding day on a gorgeous, albeit hot Chicago afternoon with a beautiful ceremony at the historic @holynamecathedral and an incredible reception at Harold Washington Library! As a JCP alum it was so fun to be back down the block on Plymouth Court *making dreams come true!*
We pulled off quite a few surprises and shenanigans for this incredible couple, and I honestly can’t wait to see where life takes them next. What I know for sure is that wherever they are, joy is bound to be in abundance, and hopefully more Miller Lite than the experts say! 🤣❤️❤️
Thank you to the incredible partners from the weekend!

September had been so good to us! Last Saturday we celebrated Josh and Rachel’s beautiful and intimate wedding celebration @salvatoreschicago! To say their evening was heartfelt would be an understatement. They both penned the most beautiful vows I’ve heard in a long time, their families were beyond lovely, and Josh’s brother and sister gave hands down the funniest toast- props and costumes and all. It was so special being a part of their wonderful day, and I loved building my first chuppah!! Wishing them both a lifetime of continued love and happiness!!

What an absolute perfect day last Saturday was! Getting to know Andrea and Eva (and Joni!!) over the past year has been such a pleasure. It always make me happy when clients choose to pour so many elements of themselves into the details. Andrea is a librarian, so we used card catalogs for place cards and hand crafted personalized cards including guests names with their Hebrew meaning, a nod to Eva’s heritage. Eva is a chemist and our flowers were all displayed in beakers, and we celebrated our union under a hand woven chuppah made by Eva’s incredible aunt Amy.
So many other elements gave a nod to the couple, to the rainbow, and to the sweetness of who these two are. I will definitely cherish this wedding!!
Thank you to the wonderful team that made this day so great!
