You need Graceful Events!

If you are on the fence about hiring a day-of coordinator, DO IT. It's worth every penny, and Graceful Events was an absolute pleasure to work with. They are so familiar with all of the Lake Geneva venues, which was super helpful during the entire process. I cannot recommend them enough!

Hailey was my day-of wedding coordinator and she truly made our wedding day the best it could possibly have been. Hailey was so calm and organized during my planning process, making sure I was checking off the boxes that I needed to in the months leading up to my wedding. And on our wedding day she was so insanely helpful - directing our vendors, setting up our ceremony and reception space, and keeping us on schedule throughout the evening. Plus, as a person she is incredibly kind and thoughtful! She put in a huge amount of work making sure our wedding was exactly as we envisioned it, and I am so grateful that she was a part of it. Having her support kept me sane, and allowed me to fully be in the moment with my family, friends and husband the entire day!

Highly Recommend Graceful Events

We are biased because Sara Sekeres from Graceful Events is the bride’s cousin, but she was fantastic executing our two-day wedding in July.

We did a small Indian wedding the first day and a big western wedding the second day. From start to finish, Sara was on the go nonstop bringing our vision to life and coordinating beautifully with our venue and vendors so that we could relax and enjoy the wedding of our dreams.

Her experience coordinating weddings was evident throughout the process. She set up the western wedding reception ballroom of our dreams with very little help and also did all the little things like helping family members when there were some minor wardrobe issues during dancing for the Indian wedding.

She recommended a fantastic DJ and had great suggestions, but was never overbearing and let us have full ownership of all the decisions.

Even when we were thrown curveballs during our wedding weekend, Sara was calm and professional and able to adapt at a moment’s notice, helping comfort us and setting the tone for all of our vendors and guests.

We highly recommend Graceful Events!

Review for graceful

I sat for days struggling to come up with the appropriate words to share how important Kacie was to our wedding day. Kacie was attentive, detail oriented, flexible, responsive, and personable not just to me and my husband, but to every single person in our wedding party. Most of the guests and even several of my vendors and venue employees said it was the best wedding they had ever been to. If it was not for Kacie from Graceful Events, it would have been a completely different day. My husband and I were able to relax and enjoy the day that we had spent years talking about- this is the most valuable gift ever. Anything I needed, even without asking, was promptly provided to me. The only thing I regret is not immediately having another large event for Kacie to assist me with. My friends and family members that had the pleasure of interacting with Kacie fully intend to reach out for their own events/ weddings.
Furthermore, I also had the unique pleasure to work with Abbey Rosenquist as she happened to be our ceremony coordinator at the church. Abbey also coincidentally happens to work for Graceful Events and even though she was not paired with me through Graceful, she was still just as attentive to me. For example, someone stepped on my dress after the ceremony leaving a huge black stain. Without asking, Abbey ran and cleaned it off, leaving my dress pristine for pictures. I will forever be grateful for the peace and calm that both Kacie and Abbey provided to me and my husband on the biggest day of our lives.
Thank you again!!!
