Cherishable Moments Events & Design

Cherishable Moments did not disappoint for our Fall wedding!! From beginning to end Katisha was extremely helpful. Communication was the best I've ever had with any business. They were engaged in our wants and needs and made the vision come true. Flowers were fresh and beautiful, decor didn't miss. Absolutely Beautiful!!!! Looking forward to future events, they'll definitely be first choice!!

We rented a circular arch from Cherishable moments. Everything was so smooth - fantastic communication, on-time delivery and pick-up, reasonable pricing. Everything you want from a vendor. Would recommend!

Katisha and Theron are the absolute best! We booked this team for our 10/10/21 wedding (which also happens to be their anniversary) We booked for month of coordination and They helped with rehearsal, making sure we didn’t know of any of the dumpster fires that was happening and made sure my sister took my phone because people were upsetting me. Even assisted me with getting an added on boudoir shoot since my hairstylist and mua were late. My dress was even ruined! (Had a backup dress) but katisha didnt drop the ball not once during my many ordeals she just changed things on the fly and made sure we had the most beautiful night. If her and theron wasnt there the entire night would have went from bad to worse. Book them you will not regret it. Even after the wedding they are still available for me to talk to them. I appreciate them so much and so will you!

Katisha was very responsive and helpful throughout the planning process. She was on time the day of the event and helped ease tensions when things did not go according to plan with the venue (hall manager’s fault). We had a great event and it was due to her professionalism and kindness. Definitely recommend!

Planning a wedding during a pandemic can be sooo stressful and finding vendors that you can trust with your vision is another hassle within itself. I searched high and low to find Katisha and from the very moment we first had our consultation all the way until the day of the wedding her and her team were amazing. Whenever I had a question or just needed to vent about the stress of wedding planning, Katisha was right there. She was truly my wedding bestie. She gave me honest advice. I adore how she made sure that I was okay during the entire process. I only hired her for the event design of my wedding but she guided me through the entire process. I truly thank God for her because she goes above and beyond her role and that what makes you cherish a vendor is the support. I am forever grateful that God brought Katisha and her team into my life because we have build a forever friendship. Not to mention the design for my ceremony and reception was excellent exactly the way I pictured it and more. The pride that they put into their work goes without explanation. Now I can say that my wedding planning and my wedding is two of my cherishable moments because of this amazing team. See you guys at the baby shower TBD lol

Cherishable Moments did the dessert table for my daughter’s baby shower. The table looked marvelous. I will suggest them to anyone who needs their services. Very friendly.

Katisha became like my best friend during my wedding planning period, even through Covid when we had to postpone everything for a year she was right there, keeping me on task and perpetuating forward to pull off my special day. Katisha is very reasonable and will help you pull off your big day within your budget, I couldn't have asked for a better wedding planner. Thank You So Much Katisha and Cherishable Moment Team!

Cherishable Moments coordinated my baby shower and when I say I was absolutely beyond amazed with the outcome… OMG! They are very professional and detail oriented and I couldn’t have been happier. Any and all future events they definitely will be my coordinators

This is such a great company! Katisha and her husband were a godsend on our wedding day! Everything flowed nicely and nothing went wrong! My bridal party of 22 was always where they needed to be and she organized enduring from schedules, to coordinating with my venues which was extremely helpful. Katisha was my month of coordinator but she was very accessible through the entire planning process. Professional, punctual and family oriented as well as Black Owned! She has many different packages to choose from I would highly recommend for any event. My wedding was 3/27/21 ❤

This vendor is more than just a wedding planning company, it's like a full service event company servicing everything from design to floral arrangements, to coordination, to vendor referral, to positive thinking/inspiration, and so much more. I couldn't ask for a better group. Katisha and company are punctual, knowledgeable, creative, and professional. They managed to create a beautiful smaller wedding when our larger wedding was pushed back because of the pandemic, and did this with limited time and space. And also found ways for us to cut costs. Our day was stunning and I know it was because I had the perfect planners. I can't wait until the larger wedding because with their guidance, it will be another wedding to remember. I can wholeheartedly say I don't have one negative thing I can say about Cherishable Moments Events & Design. Book them asap if you want your dream day.

Awesome Awesome Service !! I cannot wait until my big day !!!

I had an amazing and intimate 25th birthday weekend thanks to CME! I wouldn't have been able to pull off the weekend without them, from helping with major details to the most minor details everything was beyond expected. Hoping to work together again for my 2022 wedding!

My husband and I never had an actual wedding celebration and this year made our 10th year of marriage. So we wanted to have a vow renewal. With COVID, we didn’t think that was possible. The restrictions were always changing and the stress of it all was unbearable (at the time). Katisha and her team were already providing the decor and flowers for my event but we also asked her to come on board as our DOC. I’m so glad we did. She was able to help us understand the guidelines and implement ways to keep our guests safe. She was a sounding board when I wanted to give up. All in all I am glad that we had this team on our side. Our intimate renewal was perfect.

Thank you for all of your support and expertise! I’m so happy that my daughter decided to hire not only a florist but a planner. You made the entire process easy! Not to mention the flowers were just as we envisioned them to be. Thank you

Planning my intimate wedding was more exhausting than planning for 300 guests. Katisha and her team were there to help me along the way. She was more than the planner and designer for me. She was a friend, an accountant, a listening ear. I couldn't have done this without her. Thank you

This events team saved my wedding. In the midst of COVID, they seemed to manage all of the many changes without a hitch. Even though we weren’t able to have the guest count that we wanted, my intimate affair was everything that I dreamt. My flowers were AMAZING and I appreciate the details that CME gave to my wedding. From the start of planning until after my wedding the follow up was very professional. I couldn’t have done this without you. Thank you!

Katisha and her team were extremely professional during calls, walk-throughs, and the event. She was easily accessible. She even made sure we stayed on tasks with all the wedding decisions we had to make. Plus she was great with following up with us about pending items. It was a plus that she provided us with excellent vendor recommendations. During the wedding, Katisha came to the rescue when my dress strap broke; she whipped out her emergency sewing kit and VOILA! Cherishable Moments Events & Design is a nice affordable option if you're in the market for wedding planning.

Katisha and her team did an amazing to make our wedding dream into a reality. She made sure we got our luxury and elegance while still staying within our budget. Her tips and advice really helped us maximize our budget to bring a touch of Europe to Illinois. She made our planning so smooth and truly appreciated her honesty. Her floral arrangements brought our vision to life and absolutely gorgeous. She works with you from the smallest detail to large accents to have your decor flow throughout the room. We were blessed to find her and work her with to plan the most important day of our lives. You will not regret choosing her but you will regret not having her as a part of your wedding. Thank you so much to CME Team!

We hired CME for our engagement celebration and full service planning and design for our wedding. The engagement party was amazing. Katisha made sure that the luxury design that I wanted was achieved within my budget. The florals were amazing, the lighting was romantic, the menu cards were classic and the overall night was memorable. She has been outstanding in the planning process of the wedding as well. I can’t wait until the actual wedding day!

I could not have asked for a better wedding planner and event designer! CME is awesome!!! Katisha and her team were on top of everything. From production of the decor setup to the flow of the day, we didn’t see a detail untouched. I will always consider Cherishable Moments for my upcoming events!!

Thank you for the amazing flowers for my wedding. You took all of the crazy thoughts I had in my head and made them come to life! You guys rock!!!

Katisha and Theron were amazing!!! This was our second time using them and I would highly recommend them! We were having issues with the church wedding coordinator ….we looked at Katisha and told her she was now in charge at the wedding and she took control and handled things professionally. At the wedding both her and T got us drinks and made sure all our guests were happy. At the end of the night we didn't have enough room in our cars to take everything home so they followed us to our house and helped us which they didn't have to do! Amazing and loving couple!

Katisha and her husband Theron were an absolutely amazing team to work with. They were my day of wedding coordinators and went absolutely above and beyond. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My sister worked with them for her wedding so I just knew I had to have them too. Katisha worked with me leading up to the wedding. She was prompt, knowledgeable, professional, and detail-orientated. The two of them made my special day run very smoothly and took care of any issues. They set up and took down our decorations so we did not have to worry about that. She did a very nice job coordinating the events of the day and made sure we were on time. I’m so thankful for them and would highly recommend them to future brides.

Katisha and her team was amazing! From the moment we first connected, Katisha was extremely professional, innovative and the best part... she kept us within our budget. She wasn’t price driven like other florist where I felt like she was only after the dollar. She was really invested in making sure she understood my vision. It was the best decision to book her for my design. I’m so happy that we ended up adding their planning package. The day went without a hitch! Thanks Team CME

Katisha is a pure gem and true pleasure to work with. She did all of the floral arrangements for my Wedding and the day of coordinating. Her and Theron together are a setup for success! I trusted her from the very start. She was extremely personable, thorough, professional, and timely. Katisha ensured I stayed within budget, and where she sought to make tweaks that may impact it, she ran them by me first to gain my approval. My husband thoroughly loved working with her and her team as well! She even came to my final dress fitting! Way above and beyond what she was paid to do! I could not have asked for a better florist and coordinator. She brought my vision completely to life and I loved everything about my big day! She knows I love her! We are family now, haha!

There are not enough words to explain the professionalism and experience that Katisha and her team bring to an event. Katisha was on point from day one and made our night absolutely perfect. We highly recommend her and her team! They go the extra mile for every little thing and work hard to make sure our vision comes to life!

This “business” is an absolute joke. I was sold in on the fact that she wouldn’t go over our budget and would provide me a look book with flower options in my range. I could also pick out my flowers in person at the warehouse. She was so kind and said all the things I was looking for. The warehouse was cool, except she didn’t take any notes and I had to resend her the photos we took. The “look book” had inspiration images and a cost that was above our range. The descriptions next to the inspiration images didn’t even name specific flowers but I figured she was waiting to pick the flowers based on the final costs... also wasn’t too worried as long as I got the color and shape I wanted. she said she would send me some sneak peek photos the day before/ of the wedding. She NEVER did. The day of the wedding, she arrived 1.5 hours LATE. And then the boutonnières WERNT EVEN DONE. We aligned to white flowers with pops of purple and succulents for my bouquet. I got ivory and PINK flowers with slight pops a purple.. at least the succulents were cute. The girls bouquets were just as awful and literally falling apart, my photographer was ripping off the drooping flowers as she tried to get a decent photo. They also wernt even the flowers she described or looked ANYWHERE near the inspiration images. I thought she would be helpful and since she was pretty much running her own business and didn’t seem to have a ton I thought she would do so well and every time we spoke I trusted her. I was mistaken. I hope someone reads this and invests in a legitimate flower business rather then making the huge mistake I did. She should be ashamed of the service she provided.

When my husband and I first got engaged, I did not think I needed a wedding planner. I am normally a very organized person and thought I had everything under control. Eventually I realized that I at least needed a day of coordinator to help keep things flowing perfectly on the day of. We met with Katisha and her husband one night after work and immediately felt like they were the right fit to help us coordinate our wedding. We actually ended up using their partial planning package and we are glad that we did. In addition to day of coordination, the partial package allowed for tons of assistance with design, vendor negotiations, floral, and other aspects. Katisha did a great job making sure that we stayed within our budget and got the most out of our design elements.

I hired Katisha as my florist a year ago and fell in love with her approach to planning. Katisha and her team are outstanding! She really took time to understand our vision. I had a whole Pinterest board dedicated to bouquets and table centerpieces. She helped me wade through all the different flowers types, styles and colors. We went to two different flower markets and she prepared 3 different proposals for us! I had such a specific vision and a very strict budget. She did a ridiculously amazing job of bringing our vision to life! Two months before the wedding, we had a unfortunate scheduling situation with another wedding planner and we had to let her go. Katisha and Theron stepped in as our wedding day coordinators. They did a phenomenal job helping us plan, handling situations on the day and keeping us on schedule. We were so blessed to have them help us on our wedding day! My husband and I both agree that if we had to do this all over again, we would hire Katisha and Theron from day ONE! They are an amazing team and It honestly felt like a close friend was planning our wedding. The most organized and professional friend ever! Lol 😊

Where do I even begin?? Katisha and Theron are absolutely amazing! From the smallest detail to the largest job, they had everything down to a tee in an organized manner. I never once had to worry about anything working with them. Everything came together better than I ever could have dreamed. I don't know honestly what I would have done without them. It was such a pleasure working with a group of people that were not only on top of everything, but also very personable, down-to-earth, and fun. The day of my wedding was phenomenal. My husband and I waited 14 years to get married, and they made every detail of that come together. On my wedding day they kept everything in line, kept me on schedule, make sure I had everything done that I wanted done, and made sure everyone else knew where we were at all times. It was so amazing that I didn't have to stress or worry on my special day. My husband and I are ever grateful to the both of them and their team for everything that they have done for us! If you want an amazing wedding I highly recommend Katisha and her team! We love you guys!

Katisha and her husband Theron were such an awesome team to work with! They helped my sister and I pull together our moms 50th Masquerade Birthday Party within a short period of time and well the results didn't reflect that at all!! Katisha made sure that I was calm and that we had exactly what we wanted and needed for her big day! Thank you guys again for doing such an amazing job! You two ROCK!

Katisha and her husband, Theron, were a wonderful asset to have at our wedding. We discovered them late on in our wedding planning so we opted for the day of package, which was more of a month of package, as Katisha became our contact with vendors, helped assemble favors, and provided checklists to make sure we were on track and not stressed about our wedding. She coordinated rehearsal, took care of setup and take down at the reception, and worked with us post wedding day to make sure any problems were tied up. Having her as our planner made the last couple weeks very relaxing and exciting, rather than stressed and nerve racking. I would highly recommend her services, no matter where in the wedding planning timeline you are! Its nice to have someone who can take care of any last minute details as well!

Katisha and her crew are amazing people! I don't know what I would've done without them! Katisha is very compassionate about her job, she is organized and makes sure everything is the way you want it to be. You can tell she loves and enjoys her job because she gives you her full attention and dedication. You not only have a planner but also a friend during those stressful times of planning! She has lots of good ideas and ways to save money! Thank you for everything CME!!

KATISHA did a awesome job during my wedding!!! She was professional and patient with me through the process. Me met on several occasions and each time she was so warm and so kind. My wedding was in Nashville TN and she actually travelled several times throughout the year to go over the details of my wedding. Once everything came into place, I had the wedding of my dreams! I would highly recommend her to any and everyone for any special occasion!! I will definitely hire her and her team again for the next event that I have!

I used Cherishable Moments for an anniversary event. It came with high recommendations from someone else who used the services as well. I purchased floral arrangements for the event that far exceeded my expectations. It was as though the vision explained was understood. Im not only pleased with the service provided, but also the intuitive of business/client relationship. Highly satisfied and will recommend. Thank you Cherishable Moments.

Amazing job done for both the flowers and planning for my wedding. Katisha and her team were a pleasure to work with And they went above and beyond in making my out-of-state wedding a success. I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for superb and quality service at a very reasonable price. They are also military friendly.
