Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
Our mission is to help you celebrate your love in a way that you love, without stress or overwhelm. After more than a decade in the business, and with 4,500+ weddings under our collective belt, we have become the go-to wedding planning team for couples looking for a stress-free planning experience + a joyful wedding day.
When we founded The Simply Elegant Group in 2010, the biggest hesitation that couples had in hiring a wedding planner was cost, but we believe that everyone deserves to have a wedding planner by their side regardless of their budget. So we created the solution. And that's our Preferred Vendor Program (PVP). Within our PVP, not only do we vet our vendors (for doing good work + being good humans) but we ask that, in return, our vendors give something special just to our SEG couples.
That special incentive could be in the form of a discount, a percentage off, an upgrade, or a free add on. So not only are we some of the most knowledgeable planners in the country, but we also save you money. And that means: we want to save you more money than you spend on our services. (Win-Win!)

Hiring The Simply Elegant Group was one of the best decisions that we made for planning our wedding and for our wedding day! We worked with Hanh and she was phenomenal! We started working with Hanh a little over 1 year before the wedding and she helped us with every step of the planning process. She was very easy to communicate with and was very timely in her responses. I really appreciated how much stress she took off of my shoulders throughout the process and I am so grateful for that. She helped me curate vendors while sticking to our budget, and coordinated all of their information and correspondence very efficiently. The wedding day went so smoothly having Hanh and her assistant there to manage everything so my husband and I could enjoy the day! We could not recommend The Simply Elegant Group enough!

Simply Elegant Group was by far my favorite vendor! Every single person we talked to from Lindsay Mackey, their amazing manger and our first contact to the hotel-block assistant was a joy to work with, communicative and helpful. The workbook, spreadsheets, and connections with other coordinators and vendors made the whole wedding planning process more enjoyable and streamlined. We chose the Day of Coordination and are very grateful to have had Hanh as our wedding coordinator! Hanh is worth her weight in gold! With Day of Coordination we received not only ten hours of custom coordination from the wonderfully efficient and empathic Hanh, we also had the help of her assistant. This was perfect because someone was by my and my husband’s throughout the day. I loved that with SEG we had a whole team of magnifically organized, thorough and compassionate individuals to support us in executing our dream wedding. Once we had submitted our information Lindsay contacted us to go over all of the things included in wedding planning. She created a rough draft of our day of timeline and gave us access to our Wedding Workbook. They have templates for everything you will need for organizing your wedding and making sure you do not miss out on important, but often overlooked details.
Two months before our wedding date we were connected with Hanh. From our first meeting throughout the whole time before the wedding and for the duration of our wedding itself Hanh was both our wedding angel and ninja rolled all into one. I had done a lot of the initial setting up vendors, but as soon as she could she took over as my contact person. This meant the vendors had to email/reach out to Hanh and left me feeling like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. From this point on I started to enjoy wedding planning.I love that she reached out to not only myself, but included my now husband and daughter in on a meeting. If there were any hiccups leading up to the wedding I did not know until they were already handled. On our wedding day, everything went smoothly for my husband and I and our family.Again if there were any mishaps my husband and I were oblivious of them and we had the best wedding ever! Hanh was ready for anything, made sure we were treated like royalty and also took some amazing pictures! Thank you to Hanh and Simply Elegant Group for making our dream wedding come true!
All of the things,
Mr. and Mrs. Haynie

The Simply Elegant Group is such a phenomenal vendor to work with on any and all wedding planning needs. From the start, I loved their service offerings and felt that they could provide exactly what I needed with their month-of wedding coordinator option. I had done a lot of the larger planning/vendor booking upfront by myself, but I desperately needed help with the timeline/logistics/detail planning. Bella, our planner, was INCREDIBLE. From our first meeting to the wedding day, she put my mind at ease. She was authentic and honest in every instance where I was looking for an opinion and that was SO incredibly valuable to me. On the day of, I didn't have to worry about the schedule/timeline/inventory because her and her assistant worked so seamlessly to ensure all went smoothly. I really am so grateful to Bella and SEG, because our wedding was the perfect day in large part due to their expertise, professionalism, and high quality service. HIGHLY recommend booking with the company, and if you can, pair with Bella as your planner!

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Caroline, and I can confidently say she’s truly amazing. She's friendly, helpful, and incredibly efficient in everything she does. Her attention to detail is thorough, and her communication is always clear and effective. Above all, she remains professional in all situations. I highly recommend Caroline to anyone looking for someone who consistently delivers outstanding results.

We absolutely loved our experience working with The Simply Elegant Group! Our wedding planner Ilisha Singhal was fantastic and a real gem to work with. We really appreciated how well organized and professional Ilisha was while also adding a personal touch. The wedding workbook was an excellent tool to keep us on track and feeling prepared. We felt no stress and were able to live in the moment on our special day thanks to the coordination of The Simply Elegant team. Ilisha was truly the best and we had the utmost confidence in her through the whole planning process. We highly recommend working with The Simply Elegant group!

We could not have made it through wedding planning without Brenda & Ashley. They are the most organized team that I have ever worked with, and they thought of every detail! They kept us on track and put our minds at ease when we were feeling stressed. Day of Brenda was cool as a cucumber which helped us focus on having fun because we were confident she would handle it all. She was loved by all our family members! 1000/10 recommend Simply Elegant Group!

2025 brides beware. While initially impressed with their company upon interviewing, it was clear that they all use the same template given to them while completely not following through on the day of.
The planners could not be more unprepared, with one calling in sick the morning of my wedding (I was notified while almost getting into my dress) and the other deciding that following me around all day would be a better decision then setting up my venue as previously hired for.
Complete lack of professionalism, initiative, and overall pride in completing their duties. Unfortunately the list of complaints is endless for me. Concrete examples outside of the call- in include not following day of plan and questioning my family regarding timing, relying on our venue for room set up, my dress went unbustled, there was no emergency bag of potential items needed on day of as previously promised in meetings, and most importantly, she never grabbed us to privately see our venue all set up during cocktail hour. Matter of fact, we were the dead last to see it as it was upon our entrance that we got to. I had been dreaming of that moment for years.
After numerous times complaining to management, I only received 125 dollars back out of the 2500 spent ahead of time. I should have known better.
After speaking with a family member and two co-workers following my wedding, all shared similar experiences.
I think this company needs to be reminded that while this is just another day for the planners, this is THE day for the bride and groom.

Hello Elyse. After your wedding, we conducted thorough research into the issues raised, sp...
eaking with several vendors, all of whom praised the planner's professionalism. This included the Venue manager, who confirmed with you directly that no tasks were performed outside of scope by her team.
We were also surprised to see this review after we had already addressed your concerns, in addition to your bridesmaid Jenny who left a Google review before we even received a response from you, and the fact that you left this on numerous platforms. When we offered a $125 refund to cover the unexpected absence of an assistant (which was resolved by having a second Lead Planner step in the day-of, but still offered to you due to the inconvenience), you responded with, "Thank you so much for your understanding of the situation!"
We are disappointed that additional feedback was not communicated with us directly, especially after we took steps to address the situation and were not informed that you did not find them sufficient.
We do sincerely wish you all the best in your marriage!!

My now-wife, Chelsea, and I used Simply Elegant's services to plan our wedding that just took place November 3rd in Chicago. We were paired with Brenda Chavez and Brenda did an UNBELIEVABLE job collaborating with us to make our dream wedding come true. We hired her at the partial planning level and it was still such a massive help for us along the way. The tools, tips, reminders/deadlines, resources, planning templates and overall structure she provided us was a total gamechanger. And that's just the small things.
Brenda was very knowledgeable about both the industry as a whole and specifically all of the big players within the Chicago area. She had great pre-existing rapport with all of vendors, suggestions on who to go with for what we wanted and was professional and prompt in her communication with all of them. She was an absolute life-saver and is damn good at her job.
The final thing is that Brenda is just a great person. She's compassionate, cares about her clients and their love and was so easy to get along with. She was a perfect fit for Chelsea and I and I think Lindsay knew that when matching us up. It seems that Simply Elegant is full of great people and management staff savvy enough to know who to pair you and your partner with for the most seamless experience. Couldn't recommend them higher. Thanks again, Brenda!

We LOVED using the Simply Elegant Group for our wedding. Lindsay was an amazing resource and helped us with every single thing. We are so grateful for the Simply Elegant Group and Lindsay’s support the few months before our wedding. She answered every email and question we had, reached out to vendors, and took on all the stress that happens last minute before a wedding! If you are thinking about using a wedding coordinator, we can’t recommend the simply elegant group enough!!

Danielle and Jenny were amazing. We hired SEG for the "day of" coordination. My daughter and I had picked all the vendors and knew what we wanted for my daughter's big day, and Danielle made it come to light. We had a few meetings leading up to the month of the wedding, and Danielle was there for anything we needed help with. She coordinated with the hotel and vendors, making the day seamless! We can't thank her and Jenny enough for their amazing work! I would recommend SEG to anyone looking for a planner!

Having Caroline Causey from Simply Elegant Group (Dallas) was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she was not only incredibly supportive but also responsive to every little question or concern we had along the way - and I know I had a lot. Her attentiveness to detail and kindness in every interaction truly set her apart. She became our go-to person for every last-minute need or change, handling it all with such grace that she genuinely felt like a lifesaver.
Throughout the planning process, she was always just a message away, and it felt as though she was just as invested in our day as we were. Her calm presence on the big day helped everything run smoothly, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment. If something went wrong on my wedding day, I have no idea because Caroline managed everything behind the scenes with ease.
If you want someone who genuinely cares, is amazingly organized, and will go above and beyond to make your wedding vision a reality, I can’t recommend Caroline enough!

I couldn't recommend Jami and Melody from SEG enough!! Melody, who is the client support coordinator, was an absolute sweetheart during my wedding planning process and alleviated all my last minute worries leading up to the big day. She was diligent with following up with me and made communication so easy and stress-free. Whether you have her as your client support coordinator or your day-of coordinator, I know you would be in excellent hands. She makes the daunting task of planning a wedding a joy.
Jami was my day-of coordinator and I would recommend her to everyone! First of all, she is truly the kindest, most patient human I've ever met and feels like a lifelong friend when you talk to her. She made everything the day-of go smooth sailing while doing little things like making sure my husband and I had plenty of water since we were outside in the hot sun taking photos haha. On top of that, she always made sure we had foot on our plates and drinks in our hands while handling all matters with the vendors for us. As if this weren't enough, she became our day-of coordinator for us only two weeks before the big day due to unforeseen circumstances with our previous coordinator. To be able to handle everything as if she was apart of it from the very beginning of wedding planning is so impressive and admirable in my eyes. I'm so thankful she was apart of our special day and my husband and I still talk about how our wedding would not have been as smooth-sailing as it was without her.
Thank you Jami and Melody! We're so thankful for you guys! Much love!

I would absolutely recommend the SEG group for planning your wedding! They alleviated so much stress from the moment we started working with them. Ashley sent us a workbook to keep us organized and explained the next steps clearly. Jennifer was our day of coordinator and she was absolutely AMAZING! She was quick to respond to emails, texts and coordinate between vendors. She had a calm demeanor the day of and went above and beyond even helping me bustle my dress. The day was better than we could have imagined and we are so grateful to them!

We could not have had our dream wedding with the Simply Elegant Group. Melody was instrumental in easing all my stressors and had the BEST CALMING VIBE. She went completely out of her way to give us our dream lighting (after many disappointments from the venue and vendors, she got creative and never gave up!) I personally appreciated the way the planning process was organized and laid out so I could see all the tasks but take some of them on in my own time. I highly recommend this team because they have a lot of cumulative knowledge that they all share together, making no question unanswerable and no wedding task outside of their wheelhouse.

Melody and the entire team from The Simply Elegant Group was so wonderful to work with from start to finish! With SEG’s Event Management package, you are not assigned a specific planner until about 8 weeks from your wedding date. It can feel like a little bit of a risk to sign a contract without knowing who you’ll be working with but we were absolutely thrilled with Melody. Leading up to the event Melody was proactive with vendor communications, offered her expert advice when we asked for guidance, and helped us plan ahead for details we would never have thought of. She took the lead on the day-of so that my husband and I did not have to manage anything - we had an issue with one of our trolley’s ending up in the wrong place and by the time she let us know about the issue she had already put a solution in motion. Most of all Melody was kind and fun and just a joy to work with. And, Simply Elegant Group literally paid for itself because we were able to use one of their preferred vendors for our florist and that discount was basically the same value as their fee. Highly recommend Melody and The Simply Elegant Group!

Jennifer was the absolute best – I cannot sing her praises enough! She came into the planning for our wedding in the 11th hour and seriously made magic happen. She consistently made us feel so comfortable during the planning process. Through many emails, calls and texts she was always there for any question. She took control and I was so comfortable handing over the reins. Even better though, was her and the assistant planner day of. There is no way our wedding would have ever gone as smooth and seamlessly as it did with her. She was so sweet and professional, and there to take care of everything. Truly one of the best decisions we made in the planning process was hiring her, and our wedding day was PERFEFCT because of it. 100000000/10 would recommend her in a heartbeat. – Naomi and Michael Kraut

We truly had the most incredible experience with our planner, Kay. She stepped in two months out from our wedding and took over every piece of communication, coordinated everything behind the scenes, and ensured that everything was 100% ready before our wedding day. On our wedding weekend she was absolutely incredible. She was so thorough and efficient in coordinating each piece of our day. She was so patient and understanding and handled things head on as they happened. She made sure everything went perfectly to plan and our timelines were executed perfectly. She also is the sweetest human and is so easy to talk to, she makes everyone feel super comfortable. She not only coordinated our entire day but also took so many behind the scene photos for us on our wedding day which were so fun to look at the next day. She can truly do it all! We would absolutely recommend hiring Simply Elegant Group for your wedding planning!

Plenty of people during and after our wedding made comments on how great our planner was! Her and my husband even helped to plan a surprise for me the day of that literally left me speechless (we had a Kristen Bell moment and we got to hang out with a sloth for a bit right after our ceremony).

If there were more than 5 stars they would get them from me. Jennifer David was our planner and she was simply amazing! From the very first Google call she was knowledgable, effecient, easy to work with, organized and did everything with a smile. She was calm on wedding day and handled all the vendors with true professionalism. If there were any problems or issues, I did not know about them. Wedding day was flawless. I did purchase the full package which gave us 2 additional "day of" assitants, and I would highly recommend that if you have a lot of vendors/details. They were amazing as well. Always checking on the bride and me and offering help or giving us water and picking up Starbucks. Just amazing. I wish I had another daughter to marry. I would use SEG again in a heartbeat. They were worth every penny. Thank you SEG and Jennifer David especially

Choosing the simply elegant group was the best decision we made for our wedding day. We decided to get a day of event coordination package as we were already deep into planning and Melody, our assigned planner, was awesome at executing exactly what we planned out. The entire wedding day went so smoothly and we are beyond grateful for her and her assistant. It truly was a magical day and there is no way we could have executed all of the plans of the day - rehearsal, ceremony, photos, reception, dances, etc. without them. Would highly recommend working with them!

If you are on the fence about hiring a day of coordinator, or feel like it may not be worth the investment - let me assure you it is worth it and more! Working with the SEG team was an instant relief from the moment we started working with them. Lindsay, Lisa and Ashley from the operations side were SO helpful getting us set up and understand the process and when we met our coordinator, Melody, I knew I made the right choice!!
Melody helped us not only stay organized, but assisted us in tough conversations with vendors and brought our wedding day vision to life. She helped us understand industry standards and answered all of our many questions. Having her experience and industry knowledge made us feel so much more comfortable. Every minute detail was captured and accounted for, every minute of the day planned and everything perfectly executed the day of!
As a more organized person I thought I could do it all myself but having Melody there to handle things leading up and day of was such a huge help to ensure we had a stress free and amazing experience getting to enjoy our wedding. I am so glad we made the decision to use SEG for our day of coordination!!
I can't recommend them enough!

I answered like 0 questions on the day of the wedding she handled everything. My fiance and I were really able to enjoy the day and didn't have to worry about anything.
Before Idalis started working with us, Lisa and Lindsay were also incredibly helpful in choosing the package and answering any random questions I had before Idalis started. Can't recommend them enough!!!

We worked with Valerie Horstmann and her input in our wedding days and entire planning process were significant. She found a wonderful venue, advised flower vendor and a great officiant. Valerie saved us tons of time and took the majority of our stress. She initiated calls with us to keep everything updated. At the wedding day she did the best job, when I and my husband were enjoing our day with our quests. I think asking wedding planners help is a great idea for couples who doesn't want to be freacked out with all these little details in the wedding process. We are very thankfull to The Simply Elegant Group and Valerie Horstmann for be with us all this period! Thank you so much!

Jennifer David was our planner and we couldn't have asked for anyone better. The entire experience both before and during the wedding was perfect, seamless, and stress-free. Our experience certainly wouldn't have been the same if it wasn't for Jennifer and Simply Elegant. Highly recommend using them for your wedding!

If you are getting married I HIGHLY recommend hiring the Simply Elegant Group!! First and foremost, I did go with the full service package and if you can, I'd say go with that level. They not only helped so much with the planning, they were also incredible day-of. I was fortunate enough to work with Lisa Hahn and her day-of assistant, Kayli McGee! When I say these two women were amazing, it is an understatement. Not only did they think of EVERYTHING, but they were one step ahead of me/predicting my needs like only pros can. I felt like I did nothing but enjoy my wedding day and that is all thanks to these ladies.
Simply Elegant Group, in general, is essential for your wedding. I could not have planned such a beautiful wedding myself. Or if I did, I would have stressed myself out massively! Trust me when I say, you need a professional to make your day peaceful and fun.

From the initial consultation to the last dance, every detail was meticulously planned and executed with professionalism and care.

Her calm demeanor and problem-solving skills reassured us at every step, allowing us to fully enjoy our celebration. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated, creative, and exceptionally talented wedding planner. Thank you for making our wedding day the best day of our lives!

Most of the vendors we used for our wedding were recommendations from friends and family, but our wedding planner was based off of reviews on The Knot and we were very pleasantly surprised. We hired a day of planner through SEG almost a year prior to our wedding and they were communicative the whole time. Our planner started working with us about 2 months prior to our wedding and she was great! She was incredibly responsive and knowledgeable when it came to all of my wedding questions. Our actual wedding day flowed very smoothly due to our planners direction and coordination. The only reason that I am giving 4 stars is because I do just wish our planner would have been a little more assertive/provided more direction during our rehearsal.

The Simply Elegant Group was FANTASTIC! Lindsay was wonderful and provided excellent upfront service in the beginning, and my planner Caroline went above and beyond for the month leading up to and day of the wedding. I had wedding guests come up to me saying how wonderful Caroline was. She and her assistant were on top of everything, making sure everything was taken care of and everyone was having a good time. 10/10, would highly recommend!

One of the best choices we made throughout the wedding planning process was to book SEG as our full-service wedding planners. Our lead planner was Ashley Lytel-Carpenter and she guided us through the process and made everything so easy. Her expertise showed through the entire process, with her deep knowledge of the vendor booking process, prompt communication, timeline planning skills, knowledge of wedding planning nuances and details, and her organization skills through the whole process. We both have extremely demanding jobs, and Ashley took a lot of work off of our plates that would have made this process extremely stressful without her. We also had a lot of family health stuff during this process that made everything that much more stressful and without Ashley we truly could not have had this wedding. Additionally, we had another planner take over in the months right before the wedding due to our lovely planner welcoming her first child! Jennifer David took over and it was absolutely seamless due to the professionalism and communication of both ladies! The day went so perfectly, we couldn’t have dreamed of it going any better. Jennifer was an absolute professional and the whole day was completely stress free for me and my husband, like not a single thing we had to handle or address. We honestly knew that we had a great team, but my husband and I are not the easiest to please and we can confidently say the day went PERFECTLY. We cannot thank Jennifer and Ashley enough; we truly had the wedding of our dreams, and we know that it could not have been possible without these two ladies. Thank you so much!

Jennifer David is one of the best planners I’ve worked with! She is the perfect balance of organized and top of everything mixed with the capability to make pivotal decisions in the moment. As an added bonus, she is extremely kind. I have worked with her at weddings on a few occasions, and I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you for always being so great!

My wife and I were very happy with our choice to go with Simply Elegant Group. Jennifer was extremely helpful. While we signed up for a day-of coordinator, we had frequent meetings beforehand, and she provided guidance throughout the wedding process that not only ensured we were on track for the wedding, but also that the day went smoothly. On that day, she was able to help out with anything that came up, giving us the peace of mind to not need to worry about the little things. Our wedding day went off perfectly as a result!

We had an excellent experience with SEG. Due to factors outside of our control, our wedding date changed 8 months out from the day. We had to switch planners and lost a few vendors but Idalis and SEG made the stressful time SO much better. I couldn't imagine how difficult the day of the wedding would have been without Idalis! She was so communicative and helpful throughout the whole process. Her organization was top notch.

I met with Lindsay twice for consultations regarding our wedding plans. Initially impressed, she promised to send a proposal promptly but failed to follow through. Despite my attempts to follow up, I received no response. This lack of communication and unfulfilled promise was disappointing and unprofessional, hopefully this saves folks time in their process

We had a wonderful experience with the Simply Elegant Group! From the moment we met our planner, Kay, we knew we were in good hands. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine passion for what they do made the entire planning process a breeze.
Kay took the time to truly understand our vision and brought it to life in ways we couldn't have imagined. They were always willing to answer our questions and provide their expertise. On the day of our wedding, everything ran seamlessly and we couldn’t be happier with our experience with SEG.

We didn't originally budget for a planner, but decided to hire the Simply Elegant team 4 months out and are SO happy we did!
Kay stepped in at the 3 month mark and helped us with all our final details! There are so many things that we had missed that we didn't even think about. Kay was on top of it and made our day absolutely perfect. We truly could not have done it without her! Highly recommend the Simply Elegant team and especially Kay!!!

Could not recommend the Simply Elegant Group enough!! We hired this team with confidence that we would be in good hands. They customized our package and we truly felt heard in the process. After a few months working with our initial planner, Alyssa, we were informed that she was going to leave the company prior to our wedding. Rather than just receiving this news via email, we had an entire action plan shared out and coverage already assigned. It was so great to know that we were covered even though this would otherwise seem like a setback. We were assigned a new planner, Melody, and she was an absolute DREAM to work with. Melody jumped in so ready to help just weeks before our wedding and we couldn't get enough good feedback on her from our other vendors too! She helped with our last minute vision, hiring a decor team WEEK OF to really bring everything together. She was always on top of communication and ensuring nothing was missed with our vendors. To top it off, when Melody arrived to our getting ready location the day of, I felt a sense of calmness. Usually when someone shows up when it's time to be ready to leave and you feel behind, it usually only adds stress...but Melody did the opposite!

We used The Simply Elegant Group for our wedding on 5/4/24. Rabia was our day of coordinator and she helped to make everything about our day run so smoothly! We could not have asked for a more perfect day! Both Rabia and Lindsay were so responsive in their emails and always put us at ease with any questions we had regarding the wedding process! We would highly recommend SEG to anyone looking for a wedding planner or day of coordinator!!

Tay from SEG planned our wedding-- she was lovely to work with, and made sure that our day went off without a hitch. She made sure that we scheduled in some breaks/breathers during the day, which was much appreciated. We got multiple compliments about how smoothly everything went. During the planning process she kept us on track and highlighted details that we needed to make decisions about, that would not have occurred to me or my fiance. She was very organized, and always very positive throughout the ups and downs of planning a wedding-- I always felt better after our check-ins. The week of my wedding, I wasn't as stressed as I expected to be, because I was confident that everything was planned and communicated clearly. In hindsight, I don't know that we personally should have gone with the "full service" planning, and might have gone with the "partial" planning instead. That is only because we are detail-oriented folks who are bad at delegating, so we probably didn't take as much advantage of the planning services as we might have-- but that's on us, not Tay/SEG. Overall, I would recommend.

We used The Simply Elegant Group for their day-of coordination services. I cannot recommend them enough! Lindsay was our savior - we could not have done the event without her. She came in at the 60-days-till mark and brought order to the chaos. The day was more than I could have imagined. Well worth it!

The Simply Elegant group was amazing and Nina, our wedding coordinator, and was absolutely INCREDIBLE! Nina and the entire team made sure all of our questions were answered, provided a ton of resources, and took off so much stress as my fiance and I planned our big day. On the day of the wedding, we were able to sit back and relax while Nina took care of everything. Thank you Nina and the Simply Elegant team!
