I worked with Jeanenne for a majority of the lead up to our wedding. Aside from being reasonably priced, the communication was amazing. I'm an organized person, but not the best with timelines and Jeanenne understood this and kept me on track. She provided advice when I had questions and gave me input based on her experience. Not to mention, she was pregnant throughout most of this and had her beautiful baby in the lead up and was still fully available and responsive, which was comforting for us and just impressive overall. I could go on and on, but I think this gives a pretty good idea at what I am getting at. On the day of, Jeanenne and her team were outstanding. From directing our crazy families around, to getting everything set up and flipped from the ceremony to the reception, I wasn't concerned one bit. They even organized having the caterer bring my husband and I cocktails and the food from our cocktail hour, so we didn't miss a thing. They also took it a step further and made sure to get me to eat something throughout the night, which I really did appreciate (especially given the drinking that was occurring). Needless to say, my wedding would not have gone as smoothly (or probably even happened) without La Bella Planners.

I've worked with La Bella Planners (LBP) twice. Both times I was so happy that I had hired them…read more They made sure I enjoyed my events as much as the guests did. My husband and I decided to get married in Chicago. I wanted a simple wedding with good food and beverages and originally decided to do all of the planning. I had a bare minimum list of what needed to be done and I had a fixed budget. With 2 and a half months to go and lots left to do I called LBP. They delivered a wedding that was everything I wanted, but better. I was able to focus on being a bride. I enjoyed the details that they put in, the regular updates via email and calls, and the day of service. I was blown away by the decor, LBP was absolutely right about the florals. The services provided included: - budgeting with what was left of the original budget to include things I had left out: - florals - place cards - menus - day of food options - recommending hair, makeup, photographer, florist, and transportation company - a trip to chicago to meet with all vendors - review of all contracts - day of coordination (included runs for red bull, wrangling groomsmen, dealing with all vendor questions) - coordination of transportation for bridal party and out of town guests - working with my officiant (friend) to ensure she felt prepared In 2011 my father and I planned a surprise party in NY for my mother. At the time I lived in Seattle and he was in NY. LBP went above and beyond to handle all our asks including: - food everyone would eat - a location with parking - Long Island venue (for ease of commute) - a well stocked bar (my family loves wine but I prefer bourbon) - a Jazz band to sing "Fever" during dinner - a Haitian DJ - 11/11/11 event date The party was amazing, they delivered everything and then some (flowers, theme, favors, tipping guidelines, ATM runs!, a children's room for some energetic cousins)

I really wish we had had an experience as good as the other reviewers here. Our initial meeting and…read moreconversations with Chris seemed promising, but the actual experience fell very short. The week before the event, Chris told me that the food would be delivered about 30 minutes before the start time of the event so that the delivery person could help us set up. Instead, the food was delivered a few minutes PAST the start time, so that guests were arriving at the same time as the order. It was a terribly inconvenient time to be receiving the delivery, and obviously too late for help setting up. We had ordered assorted appetizers -- crudités and chips/dip. The chips and dip were literally bags of Doritos and etc -- without even bowls to put them in -- and frito lay dips. Like the kind we could have bought at the grocery store for far less. Moreover, one of the items we ordered (pasta salad) was totally forgotten. All of this could have been OK if Chris had handled it better afterwards. I let him know the following day about the mix ups and inconveniences, and didn't receive a response for a few days. At the very least, if you have someone else handling a job, you should reach out to find out if it went OK before the client has to reach out to you. His eventual response was disinterested and perfunctory. All in all, we feel ripped off and cheated. Other than the dessert, there was nothing delivered that we couldn't have gotten at Stop and Shop for a lot cheaper and without much more hassle. I'm really glad we had our own chips and dips to supply because it would have been very embarrassing to put out the bags of chips that were delivered. There was no compensation for the dish that was not delivered, nor any offer.

I was pretty disappointed with my flowers. The first thing I saw was the four post birch arch that…read moreI wanted and I was immediately not happy. We were expecting more flowers on top and lights along the post. It was not what we had discussed but there was nothing they could be done about it so I moved on. It was only a small detail and no one would know what was missing. Then I saw the bouquets. My bouquet was nothing like I wanted. I had sent countless pics and we had discussed it numerous times but it seems like he used what he had on hand and they were already browning when I saw them.... again they're just flowers so I moved on. The centerpieces were another disappointment. They were supposed to be a lantern sitting on flowers. At my sample the flowers were so full and beautiful. I felt like at the wedding everything was so skimpy and you could still see the clear container through them. Even one of my family members mentioned that the flowers did not look fresh. That was pretty embarrassing.To top it off we were supposed to have flowers on my cake and he never put them. Those are just the biggest of a ton more issues we had. A lot of our contract with him was not followed through on. Needless to say he talked a big game and then didn't fully deliver.

Never tried to make us break our budget, instead gave input on how we can achieve the vision. He created a beautiful sample centerpiece and we were sold. The centerpieces were even more amazing at our September 3rd wedding. As well as the other floral arrangements and surprise touches at our sweetheart table. The colors and flower choices were perfect!
