An Answered Prayer

Chantel really prioritizes what we needed in a wedding coordinator. For the price, quality of service, and level of professionalism—you would be crazy not to have her as your planner/coordinator.

Amazing experience in every way!

We worked with Chantel and her team for a 3-month planning period and day-of coordination services. Events in a Box went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of our wedding went smoothly and that it was the day of our dreams! From the beginning of our partnership, we could tell that Chantel really "got" our creative vision for our wedding day and cared a lot about making it come to life.
The day went off without a hitch and was far beyond what we expected in terms of success because of Chantel's team's amazing work. A few vendors and aspects of our wedding required creativity and extra effort to work with, and Chantel and her team were really helpful in figuring all of that out and taking the extra work or level of detail in stride.
Chantel was great to communicate with at every stage, extremely responsive and reassuring, on top of every detail, and has creative solutions to every problem. We had total peace of mind with her at the helm of our wedding and she made the day-of seamless for us as the couple.
The services were worth every penny and then some. Working with Events in a Box is tremendous value for the cost especially comparing to pricing of many other wedding planning and day-of services. I actually wished we had worked with the team earlier in the process. It's clear it would have been worth the investment in reducing work and stress for us.

Invest in others

I have always been drawn to all the moving pieces and magical touches that make events so special. I reached out to Chantel, six months ago, and she encouraged me to take a leap of faith and start my own Event Planning Business. She listened to what I wanted, took lots of notes and pretty much held my hand from registering my business, to creating a website. I have learned so from Chantel not only about Event Planning, but also Travel Planning. She has everything covered and her knowledge and experience is priceless. I would encourage anyone who has a passion for all types of events, to give her a call. She is such a great mentor in this entrepreneurial field. You will not regret it! Thank me later!

Chantel was amazing!

We had a wonderful experience working with Chantel. She was so easy to work with, kept us on track in planning for our big day and was a huge help in keeping us within our budget. She connected us with a few great vendors in her network, managed all of our vendors for us, and went above and beyond in putting together the decorations for our reception (and breaking them down afterwards).

Highly Recommend!

We booked Chantel for DOC services, and she went above and beyond! We reached out to many coordinators before hiring anyone, and Chantel stood out because she was invested in understanding our vision and needs for our special day. In addition to being incredibly helpful and responsive, she did a fantastic job of listening to our wants and needs while also providing clear direction for the aspects of wedding planning that we might have overlooked otherwise. She truly was a pleasure to work with and our day would not have run as smoothly without her. We would highly recommend her services to other couples!

Innovative

Chantel did an amazing job with our virtual wedding & even suggested this amazing app for the livestream. She came up with a lot of great ideas for keeping our guests informed and included even though their presence was not physical. She truly made our wedding feel intimate and special just like we wanted.

Chantel is the BEST!!

I cannot express enough how amazing Chantel was! From day 1 I felt so comfortable and grateful to have her as our coordinator. She was so understanding and helpful when we had to reschedule our wedding due to Covid. She helped me handle everything and did an amazing job. Our venue reached out to me the next day and made it a point to tell me how amazing Chantel was and the amazing job she did! She’s absolutely amazing and any bride/groom would be lucky to work with her!

The Best Wedding Coordinator We Could Have Asked For

Chantel is amazing! She is professional, detailed, and made my wedding day perfect. She took the worry of managing my wedding day, and thanks to her, I was able to enjoy every minute with my husband and loved ones. We couldn't be more grateful to have found Events in a Box and highly recommend her services to any couple or anyone looking for an event coordinator!

Events in a Box is FANTASTIC!

Chantel from Events in a box is simply fantastic to work with. She is not only very focused on making sure that an event will run as smoothly as possible, she is also very communicative through the planning process, detail oriented and is willing to work thoroughly alongside her customers to make sure all aspects of an event go as planned. She did a great job with getting all vendors including DJ, Caterers, Security, etc on the same page prior to the event so that everyone felt comfortable with their tasks, roles and responsibilities as well! I would highly recommend Chantel to anyone planning a wedding or event.
