Weddings on Chicago’s North Shore, Planned and Staffed by One Team

Your wedding gets one shot at perfect. For 25 years, North Shore couples have trusted us to plan it, staff it, or carry the whole day, from the first idea to the last dance.

However Much Help You Want, One Team

Bride With Wedding Planner

Plan It

An experienced producer leads your wedding from vision to vendors to the day itself. Full-service for couples starting from scratch, partial planning for couples partway through.

Run the Day

You planned it beautifully. Our day-of coordinators execute it: the timeline, the vendors, the cues, the troubleshooting, so you can be entirely present at your own wedding.

Staff It

Trained servers, bartenders, captains, and kitchen staff for the wedding you and your caterer built. The polished all-black team that venues across the North Shore recognize.

From Ceremony to Send-Off

Depending on whether you hire TSE for planning, coordination, staffing, or a combination, the confirmed scope may include:

The Room

Setup, place settings, and the final walkthrough before doors open.

Cocktail Hour

Passed hors d’oeuvres, tended bars, and a room that never bottlenecks.

Dinner Service

Plated, buffet, family-style, or stations, paced so the toasts land on time.

The Bar

BASSET-certified bartenders, from beer-and-wine setups to signature cocktails.

The Moments

Cake cutting, champagne pours, and the quiet coordination behind every cue.

Grand Finale

Breakdown, gift and keepsake wrangling, and a clean hand-back of the space.

Bride and Groom

Your Traditions, Our Training

North Shore weddings carry every tradition, and we serve them all with the same care. For Jewish weddings, kosher-conscious trained personnel can work within the service plan established by the couple, kosher caterer, venue, or supervising authority. Interfaith, multicultural, or entirely your own invention: tell us what the day holds, and we’ll serve it the way it deserves.

“Jerry is a pro with a keen sense of style. You hand him something and he turns it into something beautiful. Our wedding looked gorgeous thanks to their help. I’ll hire them again for our 10th, 20th, and 30th anniversaries.”

“Maya and Jerry are pros. Maya was my point of contact, always available but never stepping on our toes, letting the wedding vendors do what we do best.”
