We used CJDE for wedding planning and design, and we were blown away with the service they provided! The florals were stunning and perfectly reflected our vision. The team went above and beyond to make sure our venue looked beautiful. The detailed timeline, prep meetings, and day-of coordination that Katy and Breena provided allowed me and my husband to relax and have a blast the day of our wedding. Not to mention, numerous guests told us that our wedding was the most well-orchestrated event they’d ever been to!
Christine, Kendall, and their whole team not only helped us execute the wedding that we dreamed about, but also made it incredibly easy for us to navigate a forced venue change when the city shut down our original venue. In the same message that let us know our original venue was cancelling (six weeks before our wedding!) Christine had already lined up a new venue that turned out to be even better than the original. She was a total life-saver. Also, her execution of our vision was truly outstanding - she translated our vague ideas into a gorgeous and extremely fun night for us that we will remember forever, with basically no stress. Cannot recommend her and her team more highly!
We used CJDE for our fall wedding in Lake Geneva, WI and I can't recommend a better group! Christine and her team, Breena and Katy, are absolutely amazing - They helped us from Day 1 in making sure all of our planning was taken care of, and that we stayed on track with our to do list to ensure a smooth weekend. They are thoughtful, caring, organized, and provide the best floral and décor that you'll ever see. Would highly recommend them to anyone!
After having to postpone our wedding due to Covid, my husband and I finally got to get married in July of 2021. Christine, Kendall and the rest of the team really helped me get through a crazy year after having to postpone. They kept me cool, calm and collected - without them, I would have gone insane. After having them by my side for the last few years, they not only were my wedding planners, but they turned into my friends too. They really over-exceeded my expectations come the day of the wedding. Everything we had planned really came to life better than I could have imagined. The flowers, the chairs, the hidden mickeys, the colors, the place settings, literally everything was a dream. Everyone that attended the wedding still is talking about how amazing everything was. I wish I could get married all over again just so they could plan another wedding. I can't wait until the next event comes so I can hire them again. I love them so much.
Christine, Katy, and the CJDE Team helped make our wedding dreams come true! From our first call with Christine, we knew instantly that hiring CJDE would be [one of] the best decision[s] of our lives! Christine/Katy - the dynamic duo - helped us coordinate an interfaith Jewish/Filipino Catholic wedding atop this gorgeous loft space in Chicago's West Loop. Every detail of our wedding - the ceremony, the signature cocktails named after our dogs, THE FLOWERS!! - was so thoughtful and representative of our personalities, it was all so perfect, and we couldn't have done it without this incredible team. Thank you again, CJDE!
