Storybook is the perfect description

Angie and David were engaged in July 2020, and because of the covid pandemic closures, they were having a difficult time getting a venue for their wedding reception. After much thought, they realized that the only way they could make it work in a reasonable time frame was to make it a backyard wedding.
Lisa and Storybook Weddings helped us to create and execute a truly elegant and joyous affair.
I never thought a backyard wedding could be so perfect.
Thank you Lisa and Storybook Weddings!

Nicole is the absolute best!

Nicole Hensley is the absolute best of the best! She was the sweetest and kindest from our first initial meeting and for the entire two and a half years of the planning process. She always made us feel at ease during the entire planning process and on our actual wedding day. We had a wedding scheduled during COVID, so she worked twice as hard when getting all of our vendors rescheduled for TWO dates. She never skipped a beat and was always honest when it came to making the toughest decisions. It was truly an honor to have worked alongside Nicole and the entire Storybook team. We will be forever grateful for all of the hard work that they did to pull off the best day/night of our lives! If you are looking for the best wedding planner, hire Storybook Wedding and Events! You will be forever grateful being in the best hands of the entire business.

Highly Recommend! Lisa is amazing

We booked our Wedding Coordination Services through Storybook Chicago and Lisa Jaroscak was our Coordinator. The package we purchased brings on the coordinator at the last 90 days to wrap up the checklist and final vendor details/timeline. We couldn't have been happier with Lisa! She is so organized, personable and easy to work with all around. She is detail oriented, patient and helpful with all the details you don't want to deal with as a bride on your wedding day! Our wedding day literally went perfectly- which is hard to imagine! She even lead the rehearsal the night before which was super helpful. The day of the wedding, we also had Lisa's assistant, Joni, who was wonderful at the bridal suite to help steam, keep us on time, and run any little wedding errand we needed. Even though I am a detail-oriented, planner myself... I couldn't have done it without them! High recommend

J and L Catering J and L Catering Wedding Caterers

At J&L Catering, we have worked with many wedding planners throughout Chicago. However, Lisa Jaroscak from Storybook Weddings and Events was definitely top notch! When she arrived for the wedding tasting with her bride and groom, I knew instantly Lisa had a deep connection and understanding of her clients and a vision of their special day. Lisa was extremely detail-oriented and left no stone unturned. From the gold border on the custom wedding invitations, to the gorgeous linens that lined the tables, the geometric logo that adorned the custom lighting feature, tiered wedding cake and menus...she paid attention to every detail. She was honest and sincere with her clients and with the entire J&L team. We were able to work so seamlessly with Lisa, Nicole and Lindsay to make this day so incredible for the bride and groom! We look forward to working with Lisa and Storybook Weddings and Events again in the future!
