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. Thank you ladies for everything!

They handled every detail so seamlessly, kept everything running smoothly, and were always one step ahead of anything we needed. I never felt stressed or worried because I knew everything was in such capable hands. Beyond being organized and professional, they were genuinely so kind, calm, and wonderful to have around. You could tell how much they cared about making the day perfect for us, and that meant more than I can put into words. Our wedding would not have been the same without them. We are endlessly grateful for everything they did for us and would recommend them a million times over. Truly the BEST decision we made!

They went above and beyond, a bridesmaids strap broke and Veronica quickly sewed it back, i need chapstick and it magically appeared! They kept us on schedule the entire day and were so caring before I walked down the aisle. Our day could not have gone smoother and I thank Lety and Veronica for that!

From our first conversation with Lety and Veronica from The Event Chicago team, we knew we'd found the one. They were proactive about understanding our vision and asked thoughtful ...

questions that showed they really cared about getting every detail right. On the day of our wedding, they anticipated our needs before we even asked, at every turn. From making sure I looked my best with lipgloss checks to reading the room and shifting our timeline so events happened at just the right moments. What impressed us most was how attentive they were of our experience, making sure nothing fell through the cracks. Lety and Veronica took complete ownership of making our day special. We'd recommend them to any couple looking for planners who treat your celebration like it's their own!!

Katie H

I think my partner and I are actually in love with Lety and Veronica. We worked with Lety a couple months out from the wedding and she was so helpful in laying out a timeline, a li...

st of what we’d need during the day, and communicating with vendors. Booking them was, by far, the best decision of our wedding. During the walkthrough we met Veronica who would be at our wedding. She was so kind, fun, and detail oriented. She was able to wrangle all of the 8 kids in our extended family for pictures and was so attentive to the needs of our whole family. After the wedding I found out about a few instances of small hiccups that Veronica solved so quickly and quietly that I didn’t even know they happened! Even now, months after our wedding, anytime we’re planning or stressing about something we say “Let go and let Veronica” or “what would Veronica do?” We could not recommend The Event Chicago enough for making our special day so seamless.

Jackie S

Chicagoland brides, if you’re currently searching for a wedding planner or on the fence, this review is for you! From one bride to another, hear me out — The Event Chicago is the ...

one. Period. There’s no one better equipped to plan your wedding than Lety and her team. The level of experience and expertise, not to mention the warmth and kindness that they all bring, is next level. Seriously, watching them in action — they’re like the SEAL Team 6 of weddings! The best part? They make sure that the bride and groom’s needs are taken care of above all else. For the entire year leading up to the wedding, our biggest advocate and support system was Lety. She was always quick to respond, creating a constant and reliable channel of communication. Any confusion or ambiguity during the planning process was immediately addressed or resolved. She handled every question, issue, or idea right away, and without judgement! That is what drew me to this team in the first place. From the very first conversation that I had with Lety, I could tell that she cared about our day and us as a couple. She made it known immediately that she had our backs and she was going to do everything possible to make my ‘colorful’ and ‘vibrant’ vision a reality! On the actual day, we were able to make this happen and the space was exactly as I had imagined it! Our guests were gawking at the decor and raving about the small details that we had curated. Behind the scenes, this was weeks and weeks of constant back and forth conversations. Tweaking and updating and pivoting. Throughout it all, Lety’s dedication and commitment never wavered! At the end of the night, the people were lit and the vibes were so high that no one wanted to leave the dance floor! I had to physically usher people towards the exit. I think based on that, we can say that the night was a huge success! Big THANK YOU to Lety and team for helping us plan our dream wedding!!!!

lear, friendly, and incredibly helpful from the very beginning. On the wedding day she brought such a sense of calm, handled every detail effortlessly, and executed my DIY touches so beautifully. Veronica was just as amazing, keeping the timeline perfectly on track and managing the guests around me with so much professionalism and care. The moment I saw them both on our wedding day, I knew we were in the best hands. -The Maldonados

ng meeting a few months out from the day, and she immediately put us on the right track, ensuring everything we needed to accomplish before the wedding day was thought through. On the day of our wedding, we absolutely couldn’t have done it without her and Alexis. They kept everything moving and allowed us to relax and enjoy every moment. At one point during our reception, a relative handed me a thank-you card. I was trying to decide what to do with it, and before I could even reach to put it in my dress pocket, Alexis immediately stepped in, grabbed it, and said she could take care of it. When I returned to the hotel after the reception, it was right there waiting for us with all the other cards! That level of attentiveness and care is priceless. We highly, highly recommend The Event Chicago!

I don’t even have the words to fully express how grateful I am for Lety and Alexis. As someone who struggles with anxiety, is a total perfectionist, and likes to have control over ...

every detail, I honestly didn’t think it was possible for my wedding day to feel this calm and effortless. But because of them, it truly was. The entire day went off without a single worry or moment of stress — I was able to be fully present, happy, and enjoy every second. Their organization, attention to detail, and genuine dedication to each couple are unmatched. They anticipated every need before I even realized it and handled everything with such grace and professionalism. I can confidently say that my day wouldn’t have been nearly as perfect without them. Lety and Alexis are absolutely amazing at what they do, and I’d recommend them to any bride who wants to actually enjoy her wedding day.

day, they kept everything on schedule and coordinated seamlessly with all our vendors. What impressed us most was their thoughtful personal care - they regularly checked if we needed food or drinks and brought us plates during cocktail hour and dessert so we could enjoy the celebration without missing anything. Their professionalism and attention to detail allowed us to stay present and enjoy our special day without worrying about logistics. Thanks to Lety's team, our wedding ran smoothly from start to finish.

Nan Z

Working with The Event Chicago, Lety, & Veronica was truly a pleasure! We did the partial planning package, and honestly looking back I would have just done the full service. Lety ...

was always professional, organized, detailed, and reassuring; everything you need during the rollercoaster of emotions one goes through during wedding planning. All of the vendors she found for us were incredible to work with also! There were times where we felt super anxious, frustrated, and unsure of everything, but whenever we'd talk to Lety or any of our vendors, we'd come out of the meetings feeling 10x better. I truly don't think without her and her experience, our wedding would have been what it been. The day itself was seamless and her and Veronica did not let me lift a finger! They were attentive and always one step ahead and they are always within your peripheral so if I ever needed her, she was right there. We got so many compliments from our friends and family about them too. The only sad part is with the wedding over, so are our communications! I can't recommend them enough to future couples.

Bria N

We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Lety, Veronica, and Patricia! These women are the most attentive, professional, and kind individuals — and they made our wedding the...

most stress-free day imaginable. My husband and I had to find a new day-of coordinator less than a month before our wedding because the original team we hired was extremely disorganized and unprofessional. From our very first phone call, Lety instantly made me feel safe, heard, and secure. They are such great listeners and so attentive to detail. They flawlessly executed our day on such short notice! Veronica is absolutely incredible! She was born to do this and brings such a loving, supportive, and calming presence to the biggest day of your life. My husband and I felt so relaxed all day because she was always one step ahead! We are unbelievably grateful that The Event Chi was our coordinating team. They prioritize your wedding day as if you are their family member. Just hire them! I promise it will be the best decision you and your partner make!

I can’t recommend them enough to anyone looking for coordinators who will go above and beyond to make your wedding day perfect. Thank you!

I had so many of my guests come and say how amazing Lety and Veronica were and who wanted their information for future events. They made our day so memorable for a variety of reasons but the main one being that they wanted us just to enjoy our day while they handled everything in the background. I would hire them again in an instant! You will not regret hiring them as your wedding coordinators, they are amazing!! Thank you so much for everything!!

ere taken care of! In the planning stages, Lety left no detail unaddressed and noted everything which was a breath of fresh air for a couple with little to no idea how to plan a wedding and lots to keep track of. Ahead of the wedding, Lety diligently worked with an assortment of vendors and kept in constant communication. Lety also provided us with a timeline of the day which was a lifesaver! When it came to the wedding day, this team handled extreme weather conditions, unexpected guests, vendor delivery/pickup, photography suggestions, and everything else with ease. Our guests spoke so highly of Veronica and Jackie all evening! They were professional, experienced, thoughtful, proactive, and resourceful. This team is truly amazing, and we would recommend them to anyone!

ON POINT. Lety attended every meeting on time and way beyond prepared. She had an answer for every question and worry that I had. Lety and her team handled the wedding day from start to finish seamlessly. Veronica was so sweet to our 2 year old son and made sure he was comfortable. I would recommend The Event Chicago team to every single bride. You won’t regret working with them! Thank you all so much for making our day perfect.

From communicating with vendors, family members and even dealing with day of hiccups. They were the best investment I could have made for my wedding day. It’s because of them that I can truly say my husband, my wedding party and I was able to take a step back and truly enjoy our wedding day! Forever grateful to them! We look forward to planning another event together in the future! Xoxo The Amodios

Monika M

I found Lety (and Veronica) through a friend who used their services for her wedding and I can definitely see why she came recommended. Lety and her team were very organized, profe...

ssional, and I never felt like she was too busy for my event. This wasn’t just a day of coordination - we had timeline meetings and constant communication about our expectations. From the rehearsal to the wedding day, Lety was present and on top of everything. It felt like she was there to help me in whatever I needed. Her templates made it easy for me to gather the information that was going to be needed for the day of and the timeline was clear to all my vendors. I was scared to hire a day of coordinator because I had heard of some horrible experiences but with Lety I was confident that my day would go on without a hitch. And it did! My family and friends complimented me on her services as well. Veronica was a Godsend as well! She helped execute my decor setup perfectly and I couldn’t have been more grateful. I cried because it’s not easy for me to give control to someone else on such an important day but she made it easy to do so with little instruction. Great coordination team and I would gladly recommend them to anyone. Best vendor decision we made!

Vanessa L

From the moment we connected with Lety a couple months before our wedding, we knew we had made the right choice for our day of coordinator. She gave us great feedback on where we w...

ere in the process and even helped us secure a couple of missing vendors. The timeline she created included details I didn’t even think of, and she took charge of sharing it with anyone and everyone that needed to know the plan. The day of Xiomara and Veronica were a dream come true! They worked directly with all our vendors, set up a ton of my DIY, kept us all on schedule and even dealt with a wardrobe malfunction without hesitating. They truly made us feel like we were the priority and when a couple fires went off, they were prepared and quickly took care of it. People kept asking me how I stayed calm through much of the day, and I owe it all to them! I truly cannot thank them enough for making sure that my now-husband and I enjoyed every single minute of our wedding day. I highly recommend them to any bride/groom planning their wedding!

The Event Chicago made our dream wedding goals come to life. Having an outdoor venue with ceremony, cocktail hour and reception all in the same area there were so many moving parts...

. Letty and Veronica made sure we stayed on time, made recommendations throughout the day that made better sense. They directed the crowed to the places they were suppose to be. They were accommodating to not only me and husband but to the whole wedding party. Letty and Veronica made me feel like a queen that day. They accommodated to my needs, they reapplied my lipstick, kept a drink in my hand all night, they kept me fed. They worked amazingly under stress, and never let me worry about a thing. I recommend this team for every event!

Barbara C

I absolutely LOVED working with The Event Chicago! Lety was amazing during our planning call. She asked questions about details I would have never thought about and probably forgot...

to work on before the wedding if I did this by myself! Then on the wedding day, I had Xiomara and Alexis taking care of everything and I felt so at peace knowing everything would be taken care of. Xiomara picked up our breakfast and flowers for a special tradition during our ceremony. None of us had to worry and run around. She kept us on track for our timeline and we were always on time for everything. Her and Alexis took care of putting out all our DIY decor and followed my directions to a T! They made sure we had appetizers and drinks at the reception before dinner started and they brought us dessert after dinner when a lot was going on. I am so glad I chose to have a day-of coordinator and this team was worth every penny. I'm extremely happy with my decision and how perfect our day was. 100% recommend The Event Chicago, Lety and her team!

We cannot thank Lety and Alexis enough for absolutely everything they did ALL DAY for us! We are so grateful and lucky you were available and we were able to hire you for our big ...

day! You both made a big beautiful impact on our day, it felt so good to not worry about anything and just enjoy every second of it. Lety was that best friend I needed through the day to calm my nerves down during the morning. And Alexis made me feel like spoiled girl with how attentive she was with us in the evening at our reception! Thank you ladies! You both are beautiful souls!

hile handling all details with our vendors, and even wiping my sweaty back during my dress change, and handing us a mint before we walked down the aisle. We truly could not have pulled the day off without her, Veronica, and the rest of the team. Lety is professional, responsive, organized, and a steadfast decision-maker. She'll deal with a million things so you can hand over the reins and fully enjoy your special day. Hire The Event Chicago!

Estephanie V

Hiring The Event Chicago as our ‘day of’ coordinator was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Lety & Xiomara went ABOVE & BEYOND! Not only did they help with creating...

the timeline, they executed! The day went so smoothly and perfect. My family and friends kept telling me how much I was glowing and how present stress-free I looked because I truly was! Also, they were prepared for any situation! After my first look/before my ceremony, I had tear streaks running down my cheeks and I was freaking out that I ruined my makeup. They were quick and just so happend to have makeup on deck to make me look and feel my best! That's just one example of what they were equipped with to assist the bridal party. I HIGHLY recommend hiring this DREAM TEAM if you want your day to be stress free, fun, and memorable! I truly believe our day wouldn't have went so smoothly if it wasn't for Lety and Xiomara!

You don't realize how many little things there are to do on your wedding day which is why you need to hire The Event Chicago, because Lety and her team DO KNOW and are more than prepared. Lety and veronica were the dream team! Lety oversaw the whole operation and Veronica practically shadowed the bride for any little thing she might need (holding an umbrella or touching up her lipstick).Veronica even sewed on my jacket button after it popped off midday! They are very responsive with their communication, very professional in their presentation and behavior, and extremely reassuring that they will make the whole day go perfectly. I am beyond thankful for this team and everything they've done and I will be recommending this group to everyone I know that may be coordinating an event. Lety, thank you again for making our day special, memorable, and truly magical!

I can't recommend The Event Chicago, led by Lety Rangel, enough! Lety and Patricia were phenomenal as our day-of coordinators—calm, collected, and always one step ahead. Lety's dem...

eanor was incredible—she kept me, as the bride, calm, excited, and feeling beautiful, always anticipating my next move and ensuring I stayed in the moment. Even when unexpected issues arose, they handled everything seamlessly, so the party and timeline never skipped a beat. Lety also led our floral planning, taking charge when we were behind and delivering proposals that perfectly matched our vision. Her communication was clear, professional, and proactive throughout the entire process. They exceeded all expectations and were worth every penny!

ust them to make the day go perfect! There were a couple mix ups with the venue set up and Lety made sure that the staff changed everything according to our plan. Any issue that came up they handled it with ease. They are both so sweet and I would 100% recommend them!

The event chi team was incredible. I feel so lucky to have had them on my special day. Xiomara didn’t leave my side the entire morning/day while Veronica held it down at the venue ...

so each piece of the day was taken care of. Any hiccups that happened was communicated and effectively resolved by the team and I never had to lift a finger. They went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly and my partner and I were happy. They provide quality service and professionalism.

From the moment we hired The Event as day of coordinators for our wedding, they were prompt, responsive, helpful, and most importantly- kind to us. They were very helpful in identi...

fying all of the details we needed when Lety created our wedding timeline (amazing!). Lety helped us sort out a lot of minutiae at our rehearsal. On the day of the wedding, they were absolutely integral to our success- they set up the church (candles, programs, fans), brought the wedding party breakfast and kept us on time and in our correct locations (and more!). They did the perfect job of keeping the bride in the loop about setup/etc but not with so much information that it was overwhelming- a perfect balance and a calming presence. At the reception they were subtle yet absolutely critical to the success of the party- I unequivocally recommend The Event and Lety (and Alexis!) for your wedding.
