Hi! I’m Amber, Owner and Lead Planner of Peony Event Planning. I built this company from the ground up, gaining hands-on experience through real weddings and collaborations with talented industry professionals. Each event has shaped me as both a planner and a business owner dedicated to creating seamless, meaningful experiences. While weddings are our specialty, we love being part of your story from beginning to end—engagements, showers, celebrations, and everything in between.

“Book Peony for your wedding!! My wife hired Amber to be our day of coordinator for our wedding in Chicago. Amber was nothing but a joy and pleasure to work with. She was thorough, professional, and an all around gem to have in our lives during what could be a fast paced, stressful period. Amber and her team showed so much care and thoughtfulness to my wife (and me) and supported every idea she wanted to do on the wedding day. Our wedding day was incredible (understatement) and was so well put together and flowed flawlessly. I truly cannot say enough good things about Amber, Peony Events, and the entire Peony team. Thank you for all the coordination, collaboration, and memories.”

“We highly recommend Jennifer Fox for wedding planning services. As a bride, I was able to enjoy a stress-free experience thanks to Jennifer's excellent communication and coordination skills. She was responsive, organized, and ensured that every detail was handled professionally. Jennifer took care of running the entire wedding show so that my husband and I could relax and soak in every special moment. From vendor contracts to decor set-up to keeping the event on schedule, Jennifer handled it all seamlessly. Her services were well worth the value. The only thing I had to worry about as the bride was getting all the necessary information to Jennifer, and she took it from there. Jennifer is a consummate professional and we're so appreciative that she helped our wedding vision come to life perfectly.”

I am a certified wedding planner with a passion for learning. It all started over 10 years ago when I worked as a birthday party host at a park district, eventually expanding to fundraising events, showers, and weddings. My passion for weddings and events grew, and I began helping friends and family with their weddings. Now, I run my own business! There is nothing I love more than seeing an idea come to life! When I'm not planning weddings, you'll find me cuddling with my baby, enjoying the show Friends under a cozy blanket, or sharing a meal with a glass (or two) of wine with my husband. I'd love to chat and learn more about you!

“Our wedding planner was stuck out of town the whole weekend of our wedding and we didn’t have anyone to coordinate the wedding day things we needed done. Brooke stepped in and made herself available to coordinate the bridesmaids and groomsmen, organized the photographers, and other people who were working to help us for our special day.

“Lindsay with Mostest was AMAZING! She helped us tremendously when the event planner for the Charleston Princess quit just a few weeks before my daughter’s wedding. There were many obstacles to navigate including not being able to board the vessel to set up and decorate until 2 hours before guests would begin boarding. Lindsay single handedly transported a car load of personalized details, decorations, party favors, bar items, extra linens, numerous picture frames and a huge Charleston Harbor nautical chart that served as the guest book. She had to take several trips from her car down a very long pier to get to the boat and set it all up in such a short time span. She managed it all beautifully! The timeline she created was amazing and we were actually a bit ahead of schedule prior to the ceremony. This gave us all some time to relax while sweet Lindsay was preparing for all of our guests to arrive. After the reception, Lindsay stayed on board and began packing up all of our special items carefully. We returned to the vessel after sending the bride and groom off, to find that she had managed to pack most of our items without our help. I can’t say enough about all that she did for us, especially with all of the hiccups and stresses we faced the last few weeks. She handled everything with such grace and poise! This MOB was quite stressed with the adversity we were facing that was out of our control and Lindsay smoothed everything out!! I can’t say enough about her!! If you are in the Charleston area and you’re looking for a wedding planner reach out to Mostest and don’t forget to request Lindsay! She feels like family to us!!

From the flatlay, to the dress, the fine details of the timeline, etc. This might be an overstatement, but it also seems that Marryment has a huge following from word of mouth and not from a bunch of mindless advertising.

BW Studio+Events is a Chicago-based event coordination and planning group serving Chicagoland and surrounding suburbs. The Studio focuses on intimate weddings with unique flair and lots of personal touches. Blair founded BW Studio after hosting a number of non-profit events and finding herself completely immersed in the process. Once she realized her knack for event organization and planning, the studio was quickly born.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Working with Blair was probably the best decision we made during the process of planning our wedding. My husband and I both work 9-5 corporate jobs, and we knew that we needed to bring someone onto our “wedding team” that would help keep us on track with all of the milestones during the wedding planning process. From the get-go, over our 15-month planning period, Blair was always transparent about timing and was a master of following up regarding timelines, without ever badgering us or coming across as controlling. She spent over an hour discussing budgets with us and our families early on, to make sure that everything we planned stayed in the budget range that we’d all agreed upon. This was especially helpful during our venue and vendor selection process. She helped us find that blew our socks off, and also found us the most wonderful florist (@thelocalpetaler) who was able to provide us way more bang for our buck than any florist we’d be able to find on our own - a huge advantage. While we had our venue already picked out, Blair was able to recommend a food and beverage package with an available catering company that fell delivered us fantastic food and a premium beverage package that fit our budget. 

Leading up to the wedding, Blair was also a master in helping us coordinate our wedding day planning including family photos, transportation e.g. coordinating our bus between multiple hotels and the venue while making it easy for us to just focus on ourselves. The peace of mind that Blair brought us throughout the planning process, week of, and day of our wedding made having our wedding a cakewalk rather than a headache. Spending the money to hire Blair was the best decision we could’ve made for our wedding!”

“Hands down, the best investment we could have made for our wedding was hiring SEG. Especially since we were trying to plan a wedding in Chicago from Florida, we were lost in starting this journey. Alex instantly made everything easier and had us on the correct path the whole time. She went above and beyond any expectations that we had and always made sure that we were aware of any action items on a monthly basis so that we wouldn't miss out on anything. You could instantly tell that she has a passion for wedding planning. From providing her expert insights into design or cultivating the perfect vibe that we were aiming for, we couldn't have asked for more. The attention to detail that was given on the actual day and the curated timeline made it all seamless and gave us the opportunity to actually take in and enjoy the whole day with family and friends! We could write a book about how magical and perfect every aspect of the wedding turned out, how valued we felt over the planning process, or even how Alex went out of her way to make sure that the little details happened that you look back on now and deeply appreciate but it still wouldn't be enough to repay her for curating the wedding that we dreamed of.”

“We truly cannot say enough amazing things about our wedding coordinators, Lety, Alexis, and Veronica! They were such an important part of making our wedding day everything we hoped it would be. Their help started months before the wedding. They worked with us to make sure everything was organized, communicated and connected with our vendors, and made sure all of the details were coming together as the big day approached. Having them there throughout the process gave us so much peace of mind knowing that everything was being taken care of. On the day of our wedding, they were absolutely incredible. They made sure everything ran smoothly and stayed on schedule from beginning to end. They handled communication with our vendors, answered questions, addressed any concerns that came up, and took care of all the little things behind the scenes so that we didn't have to worry about anything. Most importantly, they made sure that my groom and I were able to actually enjoy our wedding. They constantly checked in on us, made sure we had everything we needed, and allowed us to be fully present and enjoy such a special day with our family and friends. We are so incredibly grateful for Lety, Alexis, and Veronica and all of the time, effort, and care they put into making our wedding day so special. Knowing they were there handling everything allowed us to relax and truly enjoy every moment. We couldn't have asked for a better team and would recommend them to any couple looking for coordinators who genuinely care about making your wedding day as stress-free and beautiful as possible.

“From the first call with Camille, I knew we were in the right hands! Despite the super tight timeframe we were working with (1 month), she took the time to really get to know us and our vision, support us along the way, and provide excellent guidance when we were unsure. Other planners we met with were nowhere near as personable, detail oriented, and engaged as Camille. She was so prepared, focused, and never lost sight of both the big picture of the day and how we were doing in the moment. We didn't have a bridal party, but having Camille there felt like having a best friend nearby to help with whatever I needed.

“We could NOT have done our wedding without Janella at Vinella Events. We were looking for a day-of coordinator because we thought it would help us enjoy our day and focus on celebrating with each other and our guests. We had that and more in working with Janella, and I am so thankful she made our wedding day as successful as it was. Janella came recommended to us by our venue, and we first met with her about 4 months before our wedding and went with her 6-week coordination package. We originally just wanted someone to help only for the day of the wedding, but this absolutely was a better deal because she came with us to our venue meetings, helped coordinate our timeline, asked insightful questions for things we never would have even thought of, went through our ceremony with me, and helped me feel SO much more prepared before the wedding through meetings and just being a resource. She helped us run an efficient rehearsal prior to the wedding and coordinated with me so that we would have all of the set-up and items how I wanted them for our wedding day. On the day of the wedding, she went above and beyond in her role. She set up all of our decor, helped facilitate transportation of items, executed the timeline and adapted when things went off time (and importantly, did all of this seamlessly so that myself and the guests didn’t notice), created back-up plans when there were issues with other vendors, coordinated set-up with other vendors, ran to get my lipstick from another room for photos, and too many other things behind the scenes that I didn’t even have to know about because I was able to trust her to tackle them. I had multiple compliments from family members and friends about how organized she was and how kind she was, and she made a 270-person wedding flow seamlessly. She ultimately gave us the ability to just ENJOY the day without having to answer questions or worry about things going on that day. I am so thankful for Janella and would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you for everything, Janella!”

Sholeh found our officiant within days who put together the most beautiful ceremony imaginable. Sholeh ran our rehearsal and stood in the doorway at the ceremony to ensure a seamless processional. She was a seamstress, an interior decorator, performed crowd control, you name it. Literally, I couldn't tell you what went wrong at my wedding. If anything happened, she took care of it and still hasn't told me. We are grateful beyond words and cannot recommend her enough. Ali and Rob 9.5.25”

“Working with Rojin from Baroj Events was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she brought a level of professionalism and calm that immediately put us at ease. Rojin has an incredible eye for detail—every element of our day felt intentional, cohesive, and beautifully executed. The timeline and overall flow of the event were seamless. What really sets her apart is how effortlessly she manages everything behind the scenes. On the day of the wedding, we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment because we knew we were in expert hands. She handled any challenge quietly and efficiently, and everything ran flawlessly. Beyond her expertise, Rojin is simply wonderful to work with—kind, responsive, and genuinely invested in making your day special.

“As a SECOND time Bride, whom didn't use a planner the first time. HIRE MICHELLE. You won't regret it one bit. As a "seasoned" wedding professional, I didn't use a planner the first time and I regret it. WOW WOW WOW What a difference it makes to have someone advocating for you! There was no need to chat with any vendors and answer questions about anything because I had Michelle. I can't stress enough how much this made my day STRESS-FREE. She's a total professional boss babe, friendly, and fierce. Thank you again Michelle for making our day AMAAAAAAAZING.”

“There truly aren’t enough words to describe how incredible Alina was. Hiring her was hands down one of the best decisions we made throughout our entire wedding planning process. She didn’t just coordinate our wedding she became the calm, creative, and reassuring presence behind every beautiful moment of our day. She has an eye for detail that is honestly unmatched. She noticed things no one else would have thought of, like adding the sweetest little lace bows to the metal accents around our yard, transforming the space into something even more magical. Every corner of our wedding felt intentional because of her. And when disaster struck and our wedding cake was accidentally smashed on one side, she didn’t panic. She immediately got to work, artfully decorating it with fresh flowers until you would have never known anything had happened. It was absolutely beautiful. That’s who she is someone who doesn’t see problems, she sees solutions. She anticipated our needs before we even realized them ourselves. She kept everything running smoothly, handled every behind-the-scenes detail with grace, and allowed us to be completely present on the best day of our lives. I never once felt stressed because I knew she had everything under control. What makes her even more special is that her care for her couples doesn’t end when the wedding does. She’s even helping us plan our honeymoon because that’s just the kind of person she is she genuinely cares and pours her heart into everything she does. I can say with complete confidence that there is absolutely no way our wedding would have been what it was without her. She didn’t just execute our vision she elevated it in every possible way. If you’re looking for someone who treats your wedding as if it were her own, who goes above and beyond in every sense of the phrase, and who will make you feel completely cared for from start to finish, look no further. She is worth every single penny and then some. We are forever grateful for everything she did to make our wedding the most beautiful, seamless, and unforgettable day of our lives.”
