Our daughter was recently married amidst the COVID restrictions and Kate was a life saver! Her professional and calm, measured approach to any challenge we encountered with the Church or the dinner venue kept us all focused on the happy couple and their special celebration. She made sure that everyone involved felt safe while, at the same time, helping us create a fun and memorable experience for our small group of family and friends. Kate’s coordination of the contractors in advance and onsite, and her amazing attention to detail, allowed us to step back and enjoy every aspect of the wedding celebration. It was a beautiful day for our family!
Having gone through the wedding planning process now for the first time, with the added burden of a global pandemic, we can’t imagine what we would have done without Kate. Thank you! Thank you!

They'll sweep you off your feet
I chose Chicago Vintage Weddings as a vendor back in November. It was an easy decision; I was immediately enchanted by their big, rustic farm tables and delicate vintage stemware. Chantel was so warm and responsive and, honestly, just fun — which goes a long way when you're planning a wedding. One lovely in-person meeting, a slew of emails back and forth, and a handful of well-received changes (met with smart suggestions) later, we were all set for an intimate backyard wedding, complete with farm tables, stemware, and a flourish of other beautiful touches. And then an international pandemic. A quarantine. General upheaval of 'normal' life and the dissipation of wedding season 2020. It seemed a trivial thing in some ways, but we, along with the rest of the betrothed, had some soul searching to do: to wed or not to wed? While we were excited and grateful to be one of the few couples who did indeed get to celebrate this summer, we had to make some changes to prioritize safety. Chantel and the owner Kate made those changes easy. I simply could not have pulled off a quarantine wedding without them. They were helpful, flexible, savvy, thoughtful and just real people about the whole thing, a breath of fresh air in a sometimes stuffy industry. To end, I'll just say that if Kate and Chantel can cheerfully manifest my dream wedding amid a worldwide pandemic, they can probably do anything.

Wouldn't have been the same without CVW!!
My husband and I were recently married this October! Hiring Chicago Vintage Weddings to aid in month-of planning and day-of coordination as the best decision ever. Kate was kind, communicative and completely professional throughout the entire process. I reached out to Kate almost exactly one month before the wedding. I was feeling pretty great about the planning I had already done but, I needed help making sure everything came together seamlessly on the day-of. Kate. Was. AWESOME. She made me feel like she’d been next to me in the planning process from the beginning. I honestly don’t know how she remains so calm and collected! Weddings can be stressful enough without the added complications of a global pandemic and Kate did an incredible job ensuring every detail was perfect while keeping guests and vendors safe on our day. She gracefully handled my control freak nature, day-of jitters, late arrival to the venue and more! I cannot say thank you enough. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Kate and would highly recommend Chicago Vintage Weddings! THANK YOU Chicago Vintage Weddings for being the BEST!
