You can completely relax with Shaun.

Weddings are incredibly stressful and truly anything taking that stress off helps. Shaun and his team do exactly that. The day of I did not have one worry, everything was taken care of. The last 8 weeks leading up to our wedding, he truly helped me through the most stressful and thick of planning.
I can’t recommend ( and thank) him and his team enough!!

Simply the Best!

To put it simply, Shaun is the best when it comes to coordinating a wedding. I can confidently say that my wedding day was as spectacular as it was solely because of the incredible attention to detail, responsiveness, professionalism, ability to coordinate with vendors, and the tireless effort Shaun put into making my wife and I feel completely at ease throughout our whole planning process. Planning/coordinating a wedding is NOT an easy thing to do, but Shaun makes it seem like a walk in the park. He was always there for my wife and I to answer any and all of our questions, and he will always go to bat for you to ensure everything is to your liking. I cannot recommend this person enough and the value he brings to making your dream wedding become a reality. My wife and I chose the venue we did because of how much we liked Shaun, and he not only delivered for us... he far exceeded our expectations! There always seems to be some major hitch in every wedding, but we were able to get by unscathed simply because Shaun knows how to get the job done. My wife and I were able to enjoy our wedding day in all of its magic because we knew we were in the best hands. If you want the best wedding planner in Chicago, go with Shaun Rajah! I promise you will not regret it, and it will be one of the best decisions/investments you can make for your special day!
