Chantel and her team at Elite Event Planning have the art of wedding planning mastered!
My now husband and I were living in different states leading up to our wedding in November 2023. It worked out that Chantel was the prospective wedding planner we both got to speak to in an introductory call. We were very impressed by Chantel’s professionalism, expertise, availability and calm demeanor/composure.
We are happy to share that Chantel and her team maintained this throughout our wedding planning process, especially with the added stress of my husband and I being apart. Chantel is candid and sincere in her consulting, diligent, and her years of working in the wedding industry shows through her excellent event planning, vendor recommendations, and ability to keep you on track as a bride.
Elite Event Planning truly shines the weeks leading up to the wedding and on wedding day. My husband and I got to enjoy our wedding rehearsal and day and not stress about anything! Chantel and her team handled ALL of it impeccably, to our timeline, details, vendors and set up and take down. She even made sure to bring us our signature cocktail drinks and appetizers while our guests enjoyed cocktail hour during our B&G pictures!
The only thing I would have changed would be to set a time to go around and greet our guests. My husband and I should have planned this in our timeline sooner and reiterated to Elite Event Planning during our finalization calls. I advise future brides/couples and Elite Event Planning to keep this in mind and possibly put this in wedding timelines so it leaves more time to enjoy the celebration and dance since it does go by fast!! :)
We enjoyed our day and couldn’t have done it without Elite Event Planning.
We highly recommend hiring Elite Event Planning for anyone’s wedding or event! They are the best of the best. Thank you so much for making our wedding day the best day ever and everything we dreamed of! We are so grateful!!

Also, I hired San Antonio Floral Designs for our wedding, and it is a floral company co-owned by Chantel Aboytes Jasso and her mother Josie Aboytes. She knocked my vision out of the park with my floral arrangements (I wanted deep jewel-tone colors and dark evergreen greenery) and even more so with her creativity / eye for color. They were GORGEOUS and everything I dreamed of. Also if you have Elite Event Planning as your wedding coordinator, it can be economical hiring SA Floral Designs since Chantel will already be on site which covers the costs of set up and take down of florals. I highly recommend them and their reasonable price point. Thank you SO much Chantel & Josie!

Chantel is the reason my wedding went off without a hitch!! She took care of our vendors, details, everything. It was the best feeling knowing that she had everything handled and she executed everything beautifully. I would 10000000% recommend her to everyone!! She's AMAZING at her job and made the month up to the wedding, the wedding rehearsal, and my wedding itself so seamless. Every dollar spent on Elite Event Planning was SO WORTH IT! She's attentive, caring, detailed, and so kind. She managed and contained my very large and crazy wedding party (which is not the easiest with our friends) and she does whatever it takes to get the job done! Book Chantel and you won't regret it!! I will forever be grateful for her!

We loved having Chantel as our wedding planner! She was organized and on top of things from the moment we started working with her. She responded to every email and text within a day, had great ideas, and prepared each of our vendors for our big day. We knew we were in great hands by the time our wedding arrived, and felt a huge sense of ease knowing Chantel could address any snafu that arose and she certainly delivered. Would hire her again in a heartbeat!
