Glenview Mansion is a beautiful place to hold your wedding. I had only good experiences with our coordinator, Susan Klise. Even though it rained we still had a wonderful time inside the house. The house manager that night, Beverly, was apparently horrific to work with. She did not show up on time, she called the police when she thought he caterer stole her phone (it was on the piano), she read a book in her office all night, gave surly looks to the mother of the bride, and she attempted to make the caterer take the trash with them. Thankfully the caterer had a copy of the contract that clearly stated that they had access to the dumpsters. I would recommend this site to future brides, but I would go over the contract carefully and have it onsite with you at all times.

If it weren't for Beverly Glenview would have gotten five stars all the way through.

Our flowers were so beautiful, I only wish I had more time to savor them. Noel is an artist. When the flowers we picked were out of season (unusually warm Spring) Noel called me with his flower purveyor and picked the perfect replacement. The time frame that they worked with was so short, and yet, they were able to have everything set up in time. We received so many compliments. I would definitely recommend Fiore to anyone.

I had a very specific cake in mind, and Lucia seemed really excited to make it. And, the price was right. Although our cake arrived two hours late, and although our wedding planner was unable to receive a response to her several voice messages, the cake arrived and was, for the most part, what I asked for. We received numerous compliments on the style and many more compliments on the strawberry shortcake tier of the cake. I really appreciate the effort that Lucia must have put into this cake. In the end, they definitely came through.

I really loved planning my wedding. I loved picking the vendors and the flowers and the dress. But, I also really love that I had Shannon on my side at the end of the process. I didn't know what to expect from a day-of planner, but I found that Shannon was worth every penny. The ease of mind alone is worth it all. I was very busy with work right up until the wedding day, and Shannon was there to contact all of the vendors and to make sure that they were doing their jobs. But, the real value of Shannon's service is on the actual day of the wedding. All I did was have a good time. Every detail was handled by Shannon and her loving assistant Andy. I was sheltered from every hiccup and was really free to have the time of my life. And, oh my gosh did they work hard. Please, don't leave this job up to a loved one. You want them to have a good time, too.
