About

Blue Moon Events is a wedding and event planning company located in Algonquin, Illinois. The business is operated by husband-and-wife team Jeff and Jenny MacBeard, who strive to design and implement couples' envisioned events. The planners at the company specialize in day-of coordination packages, which are designed to maintain each couple's relaxation and keep wedding-day chaos at bay.

Services Offered

The basic day-of coordination collection offered by Blue Moon Events includes a month of unlimited email and phone support, an event blueprint, an event emergency kit, and select savings on Minted Wedding goods. The event blueprint will offer a draft of timelines, vendor information, venue layout, and more. When the special day arrives, couples will be assisted by two event planners for up to 14 hours. The team will oversee setup and cleanup services to ensure that the entire event runs smoothly. Couples can also choose a blueprint-only package, which does not encompass day-of coordination. Instead, this service consists of support throughout the month leading up to the wedding. Jeff and Jenny can provide their valuable wedding-preparation amenities for rehearsal dinners, ceremonies, and receptions. In addition to their package offerings, they can supply the following quintessential planning tools:

  • Budget analysis
  • Event design
  • Timelines
  • To-do lists
  • Vendor referrals
  • Woman-owned

Made our Wedding Day Perfect

I cannot say enough good things about Jenny and Jeff. Every single piece of our wedding day was made easier by having them there. She came highly recommended by our venue and caterer, and after the initial consultation I knew that I needed to have her at our venue. Right away she made us so comfortable with being able to handle a semi-DIY wedding. Her team set up all of our centerpieces and tablescapes, our aisle decor, and all of the other odds and ends that go into a DIY wedding perfectly.

Jenny was also our biggest hype man leading up until and during our wedding. She made sure we weren’t too overwhelmed, answered any question I had that came up, and communicated so quickly. We had a few last minute changes and she did all the communicating on our behalf.

I cannot recommend Jenny enough to anyone looking for a day of coordinator

A Wedding Lifesaver!

I hired Jenny after a bad experience with another planner that left us scrambling. Jenny jumped right in and made me feel so at ease! She is incredibly talented and knowledgeable. We met as often as I needed and she walked me through all my questions. She understood my vision for the wedding and helped me plan and execute it to perfection!
Jenny goes way above and beyond and I couldn't imagine my wedding day without her. She and her husband are the DREAM team and kept our day running smoothly. They have the best personalities and it felt like hanging out with friends all day. We had the most incredible and stress-free wedding day because of them and we are so grateful! I highly recommend Jenny, it was one of the best wedding decisions we made and you will not be disappointed!! Thank you for everything!
