Extremely prompt, professional, organized coordinators!

I would highly recommend choosing Burst as your coordinator! We primarily worked with Alexis, who really was more of a three-month coordinator than a day-of coordinator. She handled almost everything for us starting at three months out, which really took a lot off our shoulders. She sent weekly updates on what we need to do (and what she was doing), so we always felt in-the-know. She provided a lot of extremely helpful planning spreadsheets that we used liberally throughout the process. Alexis was also extremely responsive and patient with our many (MANY) questions we had in the weeks before our wedding.

On the actual wedding day, she handled everything so beautifully, and we really had nothing to worry about. Many of our guests commented on how smooth the entire day went! She executed everything perfectly and was even able to deliver our numerous boxes of decorations to our hotel room after the wedding so we could spend the rest of the night celebrating!

Best coordinating company ever!

If you're looking for day of coordination in Chicago, then look no further! I seriously don't even know where to begin with how amazing this staff is! We had to overcome a major obstacle no couple should have to face just weeks before our wedding with our venue closing, but the BURST team helped us with the shift to new venue and caterer without a hitch! Liz's weekly updates keeping us on track were SO helpful and she was always available to jump on a quick call when needed. I will forever be appreciative for the BURST team and helping making our wedding day absolutely perfect!

Most Important Vendor for your Wedding

I would highly recommend working with BURST for your event planning needs for many reasons, but here are my top 3:

1. They met our budget & planning needs:
When we first inquired with planners we quickly believed that a planner was out of the question. With our mid-range budget of $40,000.00 most planners we're going to take up 20% of our budget. When we finally found BURST I was elated to find a planning team that offered options to help guide us while we were organizing our wedding, keep us accountable to a timeline and help fill in the blanks and that wouldn't crush our budget.

2. The culture: Alexis and BURST's focus on inclusion within the team and for their clients and vendors was something that was very important for us. I appreciate her drive to be honest about the world of wedding planning when it comes to costs and to fight for fairness from vendors. These days knowing you are working with a company that has principles and believes you have value as a human even after you are a client is super important.

3. They did the work: Christina was our planner and she was so incredibly helpful. Her monthly calls to help review was extremely important. Not only did this help keep us accountable but also she was able to help us fill in the blanks when we had questions. Going into the month of planning she did a great job coordinating all of our vendors together. We also had a weather change that really forced us to change our entire day of timeline and they did an amazing job to help us coordinate vendors and rearrange the day. Christina was also a fantastic therapist while we worked out way through figuring out rearranging the entire days timeline. The day of the team was there for us and helped us with everything we needed. It was just amazing to be able to tell people to ask the team when they had questions and to not have to organize or problem solve on our wedding day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
