OUR SERVICES
Wedding Coordination
This is our most popular service is for couples who need a team of experts to tie up loose ends and manage all the moving parts in the months before their Big Day. After coordinating weddings for over 14 years, we have tailored our coordination service to begin 2–4 months before your big day. This allows us the time to fully understand your plans and ensure every detail is ready to go. We start with reviewing your contracts, and an in-depth questionnaire to gather all the essential information we need to prepare for a productive walk-through meeting. After visiting your venue with you and your vendor team, we solidify a detailed timeline, ceremony line up, and ground plans for your event. We send a draft planning packet to your vendors for feedback and revisions to ensure alignment across the board. From there, we meet your guest count deadline together, refining the timeline and ground plans, and hold a final details call to confirm everything is in place. We week of the wedding, we lead your ceremony rehearsal in collaboration with your officiant, or solo if need be. On your wedding day, our team lead is there for up to 10 hours with two experienced assistants, executing the timeline, assisting with set-up and clean-up, and managing every moving part so you can be fully present and stress-free.

Bringing It to Life
"I worked with Illumination Events as a fellow wedding vendor and enjoyed every moment of it. Chelsea was organized, timely, came with suggestions and problem solving. It is evident that Chelsea works very hard for her couples and the fruit of all of her labor was STUNNING on the day of the event."

"Chelsea Moring and her team at IES were INVALUABLE on program delivery for my bridal clients. They went above and beyond not only to organize every detail beyond the provided scope of work, but truly went the extra mile to service the needs of our event. I was honored to utilize their services and would highly recommend you consider hosting a conversation with this dedicated and driven team. Moring is a consummate professional and one I would hire again in a heartbeat. As someone with over 15 years of industry event experience, IES is in the top tier studio. Price is perfect, and the service is exceptional!"
