So many moving parts!

This wedding wouldn't have happened without Misse. There were so many moving parts and she handled it like a champ. My husband and I had families with big personalities and they were all corralled by the Honey Bee team.

Hire honey bee weddings!

Honestly the greatest thing we did for our wedding planning journey was hire a wedding planner. I'm a corporate planner, however I'm not great at planning things for myself and my husband was absolutely clueless regarding wedding planning. I knew the only way to get to the big day was to hire a planner- it's the best investment you'll make.

We planned our wedding in less than 8 months and Honey Bee Weddings jumped in feet first. From our initial consultation, to securing each and every vendor, Misse listened to our priorities and kindly educated us along the way. I was pretty particular when it came to my "wants" for my wedding and Misse honed in on those things and handled all the communication beautifully and in a timely manner.

Honey Bee Weddings is an experienced planner and well-known within the industry. Misse is involved in numerous industry organizations; having great connections, and staying on top of all the trends and happenings industry-wide in Chicago. She made incredible recommendations and really helped navigate various obstacles along the way, making our wedding day absolutely perfect. I'm so thankful I hired Misse and her team for our wedding. I can truly say that I enjoyed each and every moment throughout the day/weekend, not worrying about the timeline or where I needed to be when. Honey Bee Weddings was there guiding my husband and I along, keeping all our suppliers on track, making sure every detail was taken care of so that our guests and ourselves didn't have to worry about a thing. Do not hesitate in hiring Honey Bee Weddings!!

Prefect Bridal Experience

I absolutely adore these ladies! I decided to book at their shop because it was important to me to support a local business and independent designers. I also wanted a store that had inclusive values. I had such a wonderful experience finding my dress! They close down the whole store and give you their undivided attention. It is the type of experience every bride deserves.

Later on, I had a self-inflicted drama but Hallie and Dana came to the rescue judgement free and supportive. They worked to get my prefect dress in time for my wedding!
