About
After almost twenty years in the wedding business, I have decided that it is time to close up shop. I am so grateful to everyone who trusted me to handle your wedding day, bar or bat mitzvah, or family party. It has been an incredible privilege to have a part in so many important, memorable occasions. To all my former clients: You’re all fabulous people, and I’ve loved working with every one of you.
My last day of business will be December 31, 2025, but I am not currently taking any new clients. If you’re planning an event right now, I want to wish you all the best with the planning. And remember my evergreen motto: As long as the two of you end up married–to each other!–at the end of the day, it was a successful wedding.

Reviews of Lisa Gordon Events
Professional Network & Endorsements
Lisa Gordon has been the Wedding Planner at several weddings at which I have officiated. Whether we have worked together at the Shakespeare Garden in Evanston or at Rockefeller Chapel in Hyde Park, she is always organized, attentive and professional in every way. Her calming presence offers reassurance to anxious brides and grooms who are only too happy to leave all the details in her hands!
Lisa was the Planner for a recent Wedding that I photographed. Not only was she very organized, but she was also very personable. I could tell that she was above and beyond the call of duty; whatever the couple needed, she was there for them. What you want in a planner is someone who will balance keeping things on track with making sure everyone has a good time...and that's what she was able to do!
After working with Lisa Gordon of Lisa Gordon Events, we were extremely impressed by her friendly manner of managing wedding day details while exceeding even the most discerning clients expectations. Lisa truly has a servants heart and goes above and beyond to ensure that the bride and groom are able to spend time celebrating rather than worrying about the days itinerary. You can count on her to put out fires without anyone noticing and make everyone feel at ease. Her extensive planning experience, attentiveness, and can-do attitude are a sure match for any couple looking for a planner that will completely get their personalities, vision and style. We highly recommend Lisa Gordon Events for your wedding planning needs.
