We had the pleasure of getting interviewed by Modern Luxury Chicago. They asked us several poignant questions about wedding planning and design. Let us know any other questions about why hire a wedding planner.

Why is it crucial to hire a wedding planner and producer?

An experienced planner expertly manages crises with responsibility, calmness, and efficiency. We navigate unexpected challenges daily, swiftly adapting to any situation so you never have to worry. With backup plans A through E always ready, we seamlessly execute solutions in real time. Years of experience have sharpened our ability to identify the most skilled, reliable, and high-quality vendors. After vetting thousands of professionals, we match each client with the perfect team to bring their unique vision to life. By ensuring a stress-free, flawlessly executed event, we make hiring a wedding planner an invaluable decision for your special day.

What is the most important role a high level wedding planner plays, or the biggest value they bring to the event?

There are so many roles Planners play. Everyone is different. Some are great at logistics and organization. Some have a lot of experience in the event industry. They are great at thinking on their feet if something happens last minute. Some are great at being a “best friend” during the planning process, or provide different packages of services or provide only month-of or partial planning services.

Remember why hire a wedding planner if you want all the above qualities combined. We think all the above are important. Ultimately, we are here to create your legacy moment. You will cherish this moment forever. You will share it with your families, friends, kids and grandkids for years to come.

Our team only provides FULL SERVICE services so we have time to dig in to fully understand our client’s story as a couple and vision. We believe in spending money only on thoughtful choices and value the years we have spent on vendor relationships. We value personal connection, design, creativity, art and inspiration and strive for a collaborative working relationships with our clients. It is just as important the fit is right on our end as our clients’ end. We hope our clients find value in the same.

What sets Bliss Events Chicago apart? What is your specialty?

We specialize in elevating the guest experience. Our goal is to be warm, genuine, sophisticated and down-to-earth. We do this by reflecting a residential approach to our styling and design. Our team carefully selects a limited number of full-service clients each year, allowing us to push creative boundaries and craft one-of-a-kind celebrations. We collaborate closely with each couple to bring their unique love story to life, ensuring every detail reflects their personality and vision.

You will never see two events of ours look the same. We aren’t just coordinators who organize the details on paper. We design, plan and produce every last detail from beginning to end. This ensures everything is cohesive with unmatched quality control. It ensures our clients’ vision to stay cohesive and executed flawlessly.

We tend to shy away from trends, LOVE innovation, and keep to classic, timeless refined designs that are timeless and elegant. Therefore, why hire a wedding planner like us ensures a memorable event.

What is one of the most unique, unexpected, or favorite personalized elements you’ve incorporated or seen incorporated into a wedding recently?

There is nothing we love more than incorporating unique and unexpected entertainment activations. It could be a custom written song about the client, a surprise 24-piece gospel choir during the ceremony, or dessert “floated” into the room by choreographed dancers.

What is your top tip to brides and grooms during the wedding-planning process?

Trust your planner on all decisions and let them guide you. Be Patient. Trust their process. Please do not think you have to book vendors before you meet with your full-service planner. One of the biggest mistakes we see is clients who book all/any of their wedding vendors the second they get engaged. This often happens before they know really what they want or need.

A great experienced planner will get to know you, understand your priorities, and be able to visualize the big picture for you. They will guide you in all choices which should be mindful, thoughtful and reflect you and your story as a couple. That is why hire a wedding planner to make your special day perfect.

Be present on your day. Let your hair down and soak in every personal connection and exceptional detail. Whatever you do, enjoy your day and be in the moment.
