Brianne and her team went above and beyond to ensure that we had the wedding of our dreams at the Waldorf Astoria. From our very first meeting, Brianne was attentive, knowledgeable, and energetic. My fiance and I planned our wedding in Chicago while long-distance and Brianne made our planning process so much less stressful with her expertise and attention to detail. I am especially grateful for how Brianne jugggled multiple asks from our family members and helped walk them through everything over a zoom call leading up to the wedding to address any and all concerns and questions. Any time a potential issue came up, Brianne was ready with a plan of action and always asked for our input to make sure everyone was happy.

I can't speak highly enough of Brianne and the MAE team and feel we got an incredible value for the services they provided.

Working with MAE provided us with the wedding of a lifetime, and allowed us to truly enjoy and savor the day without having to worry about the logistics and coordination with all our vendors. The vendors MAE suggested were all reliable and incredible to work with, and saved us time in the vendor vetting process (which is a full time job in and of itself). They found ways to help us streamline costs and save throughout, and we ended up with a wedding that completely surpassed expectations for what we thought

We waited a while before saying I do, because we knew we wanted it to be an affair to remember. Something as grand as we felt with thoughtful details, where everyone felt welcome and would have fun as we celebrated such a wonderful milestone. As we got into planning, we realized there was no way we could handle delivering the event we envisioned while maintaining our work and volunteer commitments - enter a planner. We wanted to be involved in the planning - we’re both very passionate (read: opinionated), and we were looking for a planner that could help us figure out the logistics of creating our vision, stay organized, and keep us in the loop enough that we could feel like we got the “wedding planning experience”. We created a scorecard, started interviews, and when we met Brianne, she blew us
