Jenny is more much than a coordinator. My mom had a small stroke about 6 weeks before our wedding…read more Jenny went from day-of-coordinator to a life raft. I will never forget, after sending her the email explaining my mom's situation, Jenny calling me almost immediately - literally just offering her ear. After letting me express all my fears, tears, and anxieties - she got to work. She encouraged me to take a beat to feel all the feelings, and then insisted we have another call a day or two later so I could "brain dump" everything wedding on her. Jenny was able to take that unorganized, jumbled mess of a phone call and spit out a highly detailed, actionable, and prioritised to-do list that broke down not only what I had to do, my husband had to do, but she took on things that MY MOM was supposed to do. I cannot tell you how much this was appreciated - it makes me teary eyed just thinking about her kindness and how she went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was a spot of brightness and hope amongst the dark weeks leading up to it. Sure enough, my mom recovered beautifully - was not only AT the wedding, but dancing a speech-giving with the best of them. Thank you, Jenny, for believing that would be so - getting us to the finish line and just overall being a wonderful human.

Jenny from Blue Moon Events was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding…read more Although we hired her for a day-of coordination package, the support she gave us in the months leading up to the big day was absolutely invaluable. Her regular check-ins kept us on track, she helped us stay organized, and she personally recommended nearly all of our amazing vendors. She also constantly made sure we were doing okay and offered help wherever she could. She truly went above and beyond. When the wedding day arrived, Jenny and her husband Jeff took over and everything went off without a hitch. We didn't have to stress about a single thing, which meant the world to my wife and me. We were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment thanks to them. I would recommend her to absolutely everyone. She is a total pro and an absolute joy to work with. 1000% worth it

This place is a must for a little girl party. My daughter had her party here and I received so…read moremany compliments of how unique and fun it was. It's located right in downtown Algonquin and it's "house" so it adds to the charm. There are many different parties to choose from, but each one includes dress-up and a tea party. You can add makeup and hair for additional cost and each party has varying add-ons so the cost will vary, but the cost is very reasonable. This is not a place where parents stay for the event as the place cannot accommodate that many people (I def did not mind that aspect), so be aware of that. I brought my camera and told the parents I would take lots of pics and for them to provide me their email addresses so that I could forward them once uploaded. Once the girls arrive, they go upstairs to where there are racks of clothes, shoes, and many accessories to choose from with all sizes. After the girls have made their final selections, they take a picture then head to their tea party room. There, they have princess tea (which is sprite dyed pink I believe), cookies, marshmallows, cracker/pretzel mix, and cupcakes. They sing Happy Birthday there as well. After that, they change back into their clothes and go downstairs to open presents. Rebecca is a saint and does an excellent job with the party and the girls. I would def recommend this place for your next party.

Lena is absolutely AMAZING! She was on top of my vendors, timeline and was always there for advice…read morewhen needed. We had a large wedding party (21 people) and an even larger wedding (260) and everything went so smooth. If there was a problem at the wedding I certainly was not aware unless it was a question Lena needed our opinion on. Lena was pleasant from the start as our wedding coordinator and ended up as a friend. I cannot say enough good things but I will say without Lena I would have been stressed the day of the wedding instead of enjoying every second of the day. Best decision ever using LMV Consulting.

I cannot say enough on how Lenamarie made my day more than just a fairy tale wedding. When planning…read moremy wedding it was so stressful I didn't even know how to even start but she held my hand the whole way through including months after the wedding to ensure I was completely satisfied. She not only listens she is sincere when you request anything to make sure you feel comfortable and secure that everything will go absolutely perfect. We had our wedding in the traditional Greek church and she even knew what was needed from everyone, for example.. She went to the church days before to check lighting, environment, set up and even spoke and coordinated with church what is expected. She noticed the lighting in the church is a lot dimmer than most churches and she made sure to speak with the videographer and photographer to ensure they understood what setting they would be dealing with. That is the definition of going out of the way for her bride. Another amazing thing she suggested after going to the church was for me and my husband to do a "look before" we walk down, she suggested this because in the Greek tradition we do not speak or do vows so she thought it was a good idea to take pictures of us before church so we can talk, take any pictures we want and get the anxiety out. This made the time of actual church such a stressful and easy going processes. For our reception I demanded to have it in my parents back yard and she was all for it educating us on what backyard wedding entails and I had no idea it is a lot more work but she did everything to make it perfect. I can't thank her enough for making. a day I remember for the rest of my life. I promise you hiring Lenamarie will be the best thing you ever do for yourself and your wedding. Thank you so much Lenamarie!!!

Her blue table linens and glitz were perfect for our event. The center pieces were so elegant and she designed a beautiful flower arrangement for our sweetheart table! At the wedding, I walked into the banquet and I had chills and my heart stopped! My room was Breathtaking. We had a lilac, charcoal, and glitzy theme and it was beautifully spread out throughout the entire banquet hall. They decorated all 30 tables, my cake table, head table, escort card table and the high boys in the cocktail hour room. I rented out her diamond cake stand which was gorgeous and the sequins head table/cake tables were drop dead gorgeous. The napkins were made into bows and glitz which was perfect for my style since I love bows. I have had so many compliments on the room and my guests all told me that it was the most beautiful wedding they've been to... I have to agree... It was really a dream wedding and it was all because of the help from The Chair Couture, Inc. Whenever I needed help for something in my wedding, Czarina was there with helpful solutions and ideas. I would recommend this company to anyone! They have the perfect team and I wouldn't have had my dream wedding without them. I love the chair couture, inc.

So many colors to choose from; we were able to find the perfect match! We also rented lighted pedestals (8 of them) for our ceremony from Czarina, and they looked even better than we had hoped! We rented them for HALF the cost of what we'd been quoted elsewhere. Overall, they were very easy to work with and very responsive to e-mails and calls. They showed up to our venue to set up earlier than scheduled (a huge bonus for our event coordinator), and did a great job! Everything was pressed and looked clean and crisp! We were so happy with how everything turned out--the pedestals, the chair covers, and the table runners! We couldn't be more pleased with the results! Their linens and pedestals really helped shape our event, and their pricing is unbeatable! Thank you!

From friends, I'd heard about this venue in Elgin before but never had a chance to visit until I…read moreattended a wedding here recently. Now after attending, I can say that this spot really exceeded expectations. One of the best things about this spot was having a large variety of different areas for guests to spread out and socialize. This led to a much more relaxed atmosphere for talking than most weddings that I've attended (I'm not huge into dancing). Even throughout the afternoon and evening, it was very nice to be able to enjoy appetizers on the beautiful rooftop deck, enjoy music and dancing on the dance floor, while still being able to carry on a conversation in the large main dining room -- or head downstairs to lounge around to avoid the crowds and noise. As I attended for a family wedding, I was also able to utilize the generously sized suites that had more than enough room for everyone to bring items they needed and have space to get ready for the event. The Haight has done the look of a rustic venue better than most places that I've seen. One thing that I really appreciated is that the look is rustic, but the facilities themselves are in great shape and modern. There were also plenty of great photo spots all around the venue that were lit nicely and contributed to guests having plenty of photo opportunities that they could create on their own. For those who were looking to rest, I did enjoy having sofas and softer cushioned chairs available to relax in. Overall, excellent venue that I would love to attend another wedding in the future. A beautiful facility with friendly service and lots of space to move around make this a great gathering spot.

Ladies!! Thank you…read moreso much for all you did to help my wedding day turn out as beautifully as it did. From all of the planning we did over a year ago until the day of the wedding. I still can't get over how much fun the day was! But you helped the entire process go smoothly and I never felt overwhelmed which I normally do as a certified control freak! The florals turned out better than I could have imagined, and I will never forget the added touches you took care of! You and your team went well above and beyond, and I can't tell you how appreciative Mark and I are of everything you did. It did not go unnoticed! Your attention to detail and communication with our vendors made things flow on the day like a perfectly choreographed production! We just had to show up and enjoy ourselves and we did! Thank you so much, we can't wait to come up with a party to work with you all again!
