If you are on the fence about hiring a day-of coordinator, this is your sign to do it, and this is the team you want by your side.
Lety started the conversation with us and was clear, 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

Hiring Lety and her team for our wedding was the best planning decision we made! Lety was so kind, responsive, and completely on top of every single detail. We had our first planning 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!

We cannot thank Lety and Veronica enough for making our wedding day run perfectly and smoothly. Their expertise and organization ensured everything ran seamlessly. They anticipated every need, handled challenges effortlessly, and made our day truly unforgettable. Throughout the entire day, Lety and Veronica continuously checked in on us and always asked if we needed anything. If you’re thinking about hiring a wedding day coordinator, The Event Chicago should be on top of your list.

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.

I am so thankful to have had Lety coordinate our wedding on the day of. She did a fantastic job throughout the entire planning process making sure she knew every detail to make our day seamless and special. From preparing the wedding timeline and coordinating with vendors, to wrangling our dogs during our first look photo shoot, she kept everything on track and organized. Xiomara was also very kind and made sure we had everything we needed during our special evening!
Thank you both! Would definitely recommend them to our friends and family for any type of event.

Words can’t even begin to describe how amazing The Event Chicago was. My wedding would not have been possible without them. From set up to tear down, they did it ALL. My bustle broke on my dress right after cocktail hour and the team had everything you could think of to fix it (sewing kit, fabric gun, safety pins etc). They were so attentive and truly made me feel so comfortable and allowed me to relax on my wedding day. I cannot recommend them enough!!

If you don’t think you need a day-of coordinator, YOU DO!! Hiring Lety was the best thing we did during our wedding planning process. We worked closely with her to help plan our timeline for the day. She communicated with all of vendors and answered our questions all throughout our wedding planning process. On the day of, Lety and Jacqueline made sure that everything was running on schedule and that we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Because of Lety and Jacqueline, we were able to truly relax and enjoy the day with our friends and family. Everything went flawlessly, and it was such a relief knowing we were in such capable hands. We can’t recommend them enough to any couple looking for a smooth, stress-free wedding day!

Lety and Veronica did a fantastic job being day-of-coordinators for our wedding. Lety met with me prior to the wedding to iron out any missing details. She helped me figure out all the things I hadn’t even thought of and it helped the day go so much smoother. On the day of, they were so on top of everything. Hiring them was truly one of the best planning decisions I could’ve made for our special day. I HIGHLY recommend them!

Lety and her team were fantastic! We hired them for day-of coordination, but they started helping a month early, finalizing vendor details and creating our timeline.
On the wedding 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.

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.

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!

5+ stars! Lety and Veronica were absolutely amazing as our wedding coordinators. From start to finish, they made me feel completely comfortable and alleviated my stress. On the day of our wedding, I literally didn’t have to worry about a single thing. They handled everything so efficiently that all I had to do was enjoy the moment. Their professionalism, organization, and genuine kindness truly made our day even more special. My parents, husband, and bridal party all loved them. 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 have nothing but great things to say about The Event Chicago team. I worked directly with Lety and from the very beginning she made me feel comfortable and that I could ask her anything about the process. They truly made our day special by leading and letting me know they would handle everything. I trusted them to make decisions and they delivered far beyond my expectations. 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!!

The team at The Event Chicago went above and beyond for us at our 60-person wedding this weekend! From our first meeting with Lety to the wedding day with Veronica and Jackie, we were 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!

Look no further for a coordinator- Lety and Veronica are absolute professionals! From the first meeting all the way to wedding day, Lety was organized, prompt, friendly, and simply 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.

Leading up to our special day Lety was so helpful in creating a timeline and getting organized. I had no idea where to start and she made it very easy. I had tons of questions and she was always responsive with each one. On the day of everything went smooth and perfect. I wanted a memorial chair and table for my sister and she made sure it was perfect and everything that I wanted. Choosing to work with them was one of the best choices we made. I would highly recommend working with Lety. She is amazing:)

Absolutely amazing experience! Our wedding coordinator Lety was everything we could have hoped for and more. From start to finish, Lety was incredibly communicative, always punctual, and impressively organized. Lety remained patient and calm even when we were stressed, and her professionalism truly set the tone for the whole planning process. What stood out most was how kind and resourceful Lety was—always ready with thoughtful solutions and going above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. Also a special shout out to Veronica who was incredibly helpful during the ceremony and reception. Thanks to The Event Chicago, our wedding day ran smoothly and beautifully. We can’t recommend them highly enough! Five stars all the way!

This is your sign, BOOK THEM! Lety is a wedding day NEED. Lety and Veronica were the best team to have create my wedding vision a reality. After planning a majority of my wedding details on my own I knew I wanted to enjoy my wedding day. I looked to Lety for day of coordination, she did not disappoint. 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!

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, professional, 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!

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 were 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!

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!

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!

Lety and her team were amazing and a must-have addition to any wedding day or special occasion. Not only did her team assist in setting up our venue, but Lety was with us all day while 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!

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!

We hired Lety and her team for the "Day of" but really it was a month long experience. As soon as we had out timeline meeting, Lety was hands on with every detail. We could not have asked for a better coordinator. 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 demeanor 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!

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 identifying 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.

We can’t thank Lety enough for making our wedding planning so smooth!
Before Lety, we were overwhelmed, stressed out, and felt lost in the planning process. From the moment we met Lety, we knew we were in the best hands to make our big day special and booking her was the best decision we made!
She came in as a lifesaver when she helped take on the challenge of finding a venue for us when we had no clue what we were doing. She was so supportive throughout this process and was always available to answer ALL of our questions (and we had MANY questions). She connected us with incredible vendors, which truly created a dream team for our big day. Her ability to coordinate vendors, manage timelines, and handle unexpected challenges was nothing short of impressive.
On the wedding day, Lety and Alexis ensured everything ran flawlessly, allowing us to truly enjoy our special day without worrying about anything. Our guests couldn't stop raving about how seamlessly everything came together.
Thanks to her, our vision truly came to life, and we really couldn’t have done it without her! We are forever grateful for Lety and The Event Chicago for making our special day one to remember. Thank you, Lety and Alexis, for making our wedding day absolutely perfect!

Hiring The Event Chicago team for our wedding’s day of coordination was the best decision we could have made!! Lety helped create our day of timeline, and was onsite with her colleague Veronica for the day of our wedding. Their team went the extra mile for us, from picking up all of our decor, running down the block to get me Tums from the pharmacy during dinner, to getting more bottles of tequila for the bar after we unexpectedly ran out. Their team exceeded our expectations in executing our vision and swiftly dealing with any last-minute hiccups. We were able to fully enjoy being present during our wedding day thanks to Lety and Veronica. Lety even took behind-the-scenes videos to capture some special moments throughout the day. Even if you are a planner like me, you will not regret hiring the Event Chicago team. Thank you so much again for making the wedding of our dreams come to life!

Hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding was to hire The Event Chicago! Lety and Veronica were amazing. Lety made our wedding planning enjoyable and stress-free, from creating the timeline to reminding us to eat during our reception. Veronica ensured that my lipstick was always picture-ready and easily bustled my dress multiple times. My husband and I had numerous guests comment on how flawless and organized our wedding had been. That was all thanks to The Event Chicago. Forever grateful!

My mom still reminds me weekly that hiring The Event Chicago was the best choice I made for my wedding day! From our first meeting with Lety laying the groundwork & creating our Wedding Timeline, to the helpful emails in between that kept us organized, to how dreamy our big day turned out, I truly cannot recommend Lety (and Veronica & Alexis) enough! They were professional, friendly, and EXTREMELY helpful. Also, HUGE bonuses in my book are the fact that they are bilingual so there was one less thing to worry about with our Spanish speaking vendors & family members! We did not have the most “grand” wedding, but we felt like 1 million bucks having The Event Chicago coordinate our day & address all the tiny details from set up to break down! The team accommodated last minute changes, coordinated vendors effectively, catered to my husband and I all day long, and above all made the day absolutely BEAUTIFUL, relaxing, and enjoyable for us! And for me, the cherry on top was receiving BTS iPhone videos a couple days after our wedding! Book with them, you will not regret it <3

From meeting me at the hotel room early to make sure florals would be delivered and dealing with all of the vendors to helping fix my mother in law's dress (I didn't even know about this- apparently, she had a big freak out but they were so amazing and handled it that I had no idea until I was told days later), to setting up and packing up all of my DIY things for the ceremony and reception- they did it all! Lety made the most detailed timeline and was amazing in making it specific to what I wanted and offered me so much advice (which I highly needed because I had no idea what I was doing!). Everyone kept commenting that I was so calm all morning and all day, which I honestly contributed to Lety and Veronica- without them I know I would have had no chill and would have been so worried that things weren't going to go as planned. They were absolutely amazing and I can't recommend them enough!

My husband and I made the best decision in hiring The Event Chicago for day of coordinator. I am forever grateful that we found Lety and her team! Lety made us feel at ease when discussing the timeline. The team had great communication with us and our vendors. Lety made sure to take all of our necessary items with her to church. Veronica took all of our reception items and made sure to set them up perfectly. Lety and Veronica made our wedding day go by smoothly and stress free! They made sure we were on schedule, helped carry the tail of my dress when taking pictures, helped me change into sandals, made sure all of our items (card cage, cake, frames, guestbook, etc.) were taken back to our suite. They ensured we were taken care of through the day. They took care of payments and tips for all of our vendors. They were amazing! We would highly recommend hiring them for your event!
Thank you again!

After we booked our venue, booking a coordinator was our first big decision and one of the most important ones for me as the bride.
I cannot say enough great things about Lety and her team. I really don't know how I would have been able to have our wedding without them.
The care and thought that goes into everything is incredible. From the start Lety had great communication. I became very overwhelmed towards the end of planning and Lety showed grace and patience as I struggled with last minute decisions and poor communication on my part. I also have to say that the professionalism, thoughtfulness, and the overall personality of Lety and Veronica really allowed me to trust them and made me feel like I had known them for years! They thought of every little detail and held that throughout the night. There was a few things that came up that I didn't even know about, which is exactly the experience I wanted.
I can go on and on, and have recommended them to everyone I know planning any event lol. We have some family weddings and a sweet 16 in the next year so I will be rebooking!
Thank you again, we could not have done it without you!

I can go on and on about how amazing Lety & her team were! From the first phone call until the very end of our wedding night! Communication was clear, concise & helpful! I always felt supported in my decisions and oftentimes when asking for advice Lety would help guide without making me feel overwhelmed! During my wedding day, Veronica was at our venue making the place look straight out of a dream, I seriously couldn’t have asked for anything better. Xiomara was with me at our hotel and during photos, she kept us on time and often made me feel like I had another friend along for the ride! It is very important for me to connect and support women/Latina owned companies, and these women were such a strong confident team I felt so supported! I seriously could not recommend them enough, I will be talking about them and their team for years to come & recommending them to everyone that I possibly can, I feel so lucky to have had them helping make our day possible! ❤️ forever thankful,
The Pastiriks!

Lety and Veronica went above and beyond to make sure that our whole day ran smoothly. Without their help, I cannot imagine the headaches we would have had on our day. Lety offered suggestions throughout the entire process and was there for us during freak out moments / moments we were not clear on direction. When a fire alarm went off during the reception, Veronica worked to keep us calm and ensured us that everything would work out fine. Her reassurance helped us get through the unexpected event. Both Lety and Veronica were assertive yet respectful when things needed to get done, and we cannot thank them enough for everything they did for us on our special day. THANK YOU SO MUCH! We would hire again for any event in the future.

The Event Chicago was so amazing. My husband and I had our wedding at the Morton Arboretum in September and booked Event Chicago as day of coordinators. We are so happy we went with them! Lety was available even before the wedding day for phone calls and created a great timeline that met all our needs. She also made herself available to pick up larger decor items and my dresses the night before the wedding. It was so helpful to be able to speak with her before the wedding and made me feel so comfortable with their competence.
Our wedding day went off without one hitch and it is in large part because of the incredible work Lety and Veronica did! They were so warm, friendly, and helpful. They really thought of everything from an emergency sewing kit for a bridesmaids dress to a portable fan or face power for unexpected eye makeup smearing. They also handled directing guests and all vendors upon arrival and during the day which really took the stress off of me and my husband. With Event Chicago we were able to focus on being in the moment and enjoying time with our families.
We can't recommend them enough! So happy we went with The Event Chicago!

Lety probably walked 10 miles coordinating a beautiful wedding at Morton Arboretum. She was unflappable, warm, and professional. Having her weaving together all the details gave me freedom to concentrate on the family, the sound system, special musicians, and guests prior to and after the ceremony. The Event Chicago made it possible for me to officiate the couple's wedding without background worry. Thank you, Lety!
