If you’re looking for a sign to help you decide on a planner or if it’s worth it, this review is for you! Rebecca made wedding planning a true joy. It didn’t matter what it was- she was flexible, easy to get ahold of, dependable, and so much fun to work with. By the time the day rolled around, I was stress free and excited to focus and be present throughout the day. Rebecca assembled the worlds most remarkable team of vendors and they were all a dream to work with. She knows her stuff and knows everyone you could ever need in the industry. She got my vision and I could trust her implicitly with every aspect of the day. The only complaint I have was that by the end of the process, I wanted Rebecca on the dance floor celebrating with us as a guest! I cannot recommend SPW highly enough. Do yourself a favor: book SPW now!

We are in the midst of wedding planning with Rebecca and I am not lying when I say this wedding would be nothing without her. She is excellent in every way possible. Rebecca keeps us organized, gives us a push when we need it, offers sound advice and recommendations, listens to our ideas and incorporates them perfectly, and makes us feel better about everything every step of the way. She is professional but kind and fun. She also knows all the best vendors in the city. I recommend her to everyone looking for a planner. Don’t think twice!

Rebecca was an amazing officiant. She was so easy to work with and responded quickly to all the ceremony suggestions and questions we had. We had guests comment on how heartfelt and meaningful the ceremony was, thanks to Rebecca! We highly recommend using Rebecca as your wedding day officiant.

Rebecca was an incredible Officiant! From the get-go, she was a great resource for us and was so helpful in walking us through the logistics of a legal ceremony (timeline, marriage license requirements, etc). She came with so many cool ideas and the script she crafted–absolutely perfect. Working with her was easy, she was receptive to feedback and so so respectful of what we were wanting our ceremony to reflect. We had so many of our guests tell us how beautiful and special to us the ceremony felt. Thank you so much Rebecca!!

Rebecca is an incredible planner and coordinator, I would wholeheartedly recommend her and her team to help you make your wedding day as stress-free as possible. We brought Rebecca on as a coordinator and she was invaluable for helping us tie up loose ends (there were many!) and get the whole vendor team ready for a smooth event. We did a few non-traditional things, had various family and friends helping, and the event was in a venue Rebecca was new to -- and she pulled everything off seamlessly! Or, at least that was my experience as the bride, which says a lot! You will not regret one penny spent on Rebecca's kind, attentive, and amazingly organized planning/coordinating. I was pulling my hair out trying to plan a wedding during an intense and stressful season at work, and really not enjoying the process. After bringing Rebecca on, things got so much better, and she was there to problem-solve, manage vendor questions and coordination, and generally kept me sane (i.e. No, I didn't need to be scouring Facebook for a card box if the idea filled me with dread. She'd check to see if the caterer had a basket we could use). I am completely and blissfully unaware of any problems that might have arisen the day of the wedding, and I truly believe that is because of Rebecca's planning and help.

My husband and I booked Rebecca as our Officiant for our wedding, we were recommended to her by our planner. We spoke to Rebecca before locking her in, and felt like she had a great understanding of how to express a couple's love for one another and help us write personalized vows for our big day. I am so thrilled and happy we did because she made the whole process so easy for us. We spoke with her two times over video call before the wedding, but the day of it was like we had known her forever. She made the wedding ceremony so special and true to us! Honestly, Rebecca took the time to get to know us ahead of time, which is why everything felt so us. She also provided us with details on how to apply & pick up our marriage license, she also mailed it in for us, and provided information for how to do the name change. We cannot recommend her enough!

My partner and I had a particular, personal vision for our wedding -- but were daunted by the amount of coordination and planning to make it a reality. Rebecca was able to understand that vision, coach and gently guide us through getting everything lined up and in order -- using a software task list and being gracious when I deviated. Rebecca re-assured us that we were on track, it was our first time doing this and it was nice to hear from a pro that we didn't need to worry leading up to the event. Rebecca and Noah truly shined the day of, a wedding is an overwhelming experience, filled with lots of intense emotions. They were able to keep the whole ceremony and reception running smoothly and seamlessly. We never, ever worried about a single thing and were able to be fully present, enjoying what may be the only time all our families are together. We are immensely grateful to Rebecca and her team, and would highly recommend her to any other couple out there considering a wedding coordinator. You pour so much energy and thought leading up to the day, it's truly important to have a competent coordinator that can make sure you're able to bring your whole self to the event the day of. Thank you once again, Rebecca

Had a phenomenal time working with Rebecca on making our wedding perfect and run without a hitch. Highly highly recommended. I wish there were 6 stars I could click!

We used Rebecca as a partial coordinator (90 days leading up to the wedding), and it was the best decision we made throughout the planning process. Rebecca went above and beyond from the first day we booked her. She had helpful and interactive tools that helped streamline the process and ensured we knew exactly what needed to be completed along the way and when. For vendor-related items we didn’t need to be involved in, Rebecca handled them like the pro she is; we never once needed to jump in and were told by our vendors that she was great to work with. We were very detail-oriented and had concerns about many smaller items. Rebecca ensured these were not overlooked and was very helpful in suggesting possible solutions, reaching out to our vendors as needed, and keeping us calm. Rebecca helped map out every minute of the big day and ensured everyone involved was on the same page, including all 13 separate vendors we were working with. A handful of these vendors told us that her tools and communication were unlike any other coordinators they’ve worked with before, which helped ensure that everything went off without a hitch. On the day of, she was amazing - helping us get off to pictures on time with everything we needed, ensuring everything was set-up perfectly, checking in with us throughout the day to make sure we had everything we needed, and was just on top of everything for us. It allowed us, and our families, to relax. On top of everything else, at the end of the night, there were a couple minor items that were left behind at the venue that many people would’ve probably ignored/disposed of that Rebecca went out of her way to bring to our hotel, showing how much she really cares about every little thing being perfect! We highly recommend working with Rebecca!

Hiring Rebecca was the best decision I made in the whole wedding process (besides, you know, deciding to marry my now husband). We hired Rebecca for several services: she was our wedding coordinator, officiant, and sourced a couple of our vendors. In everything we hired her to do, she absolutely crushed it. As an officiant, Rebecca guided us through a ceremony that celebrated our religious and cultural traditions. She never pushed anything on us, but offered options of what our ceremony could look like and crafted a custom ceremony based on what resonated with us as a couple. As a coordinator, Rebecca was the MVP of our wedding. We started working with her several months prior to source a few vendors, and her recommendations were fantastic. She was an excellent partner during the planning process, making herself available for regular check ins and providing detailed timelines and checklists to ensure we stayed on track. No matter what question I had, Rebecca was a great resource to making sure I had the right information to make a decision. She was professional with our other vendors and provided clear direction and timelines so our day ran smoothly. Another thing I loved about Rebecca was that she tailored her communication style to fit my preferences — I was a type A bride and craved lots of updates and she worked hard to make sure I felt I had what I needed. On the day of our wedding, Rebecca was a STAR. Seriously she was the reason I was able to relax and enjoy my wedding. She made sure the whole day ran smoothly and everyone knew where they were supposed to be. She was prepared for ANYTHING that came up and worked diligently to make sure our wedding day vision came to life. I am so thankful I hired Rebecca. If you are thinking of hiring a coordinator, HIRE REBECCA!!

This review is LONG overdue. My wife and I had Rebecca plan not 1, but 2 of our weddings. We did the legal quick elopement during 2020 due to covid with a close group, as well as the big celebration the year later. Throughout the process of both of these weddings Rebecca was incredibly helpful, so much so that the only real advice I give to anyone getting married is to GET A WEDDING PLANNER! I know I certainly appreciated all the effort Rebecca put into planning our weddings and I know my wife did even more. She does awesome work coordinating with all of the vendors, important people, and making sure everything goes smoothly. Aside from doing all of the usual stuff you might expect from a wedding planner, with her expertise she does things you would not think of or otherwise be able to do on your own. One instance of this was when she helped us negotiate our food and drink minimum down due to covid and saved us THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS. Rebecca 100% does amazing work throughout the planning process, day of coordinating, and goes way above and beyond making sure everything is perfect down to the smallest detail. I promise you will not regret hiring her to help you plan your wedding.

Rebecca is an absolute rockstar. We ended up working with her for nearly three years thanks to postponing our wedding once due to COVID, and I can honestly say I'll miss having an excuse to chat with her. I deeply appreciated that Rebecca didn't have a singular vision of what a wedding "should" look like. Whenever we asked for what we should do for xyz tradition, she usually started her answer with "Well, you can really do whatever you want." As a type-A bride with a vision who didn't really enjoy wedding planning, Rebecca was the perfect planning partner. She never pushed for a particular result, but she researched options, provided pro/con lists, and helped us remember our priorities. I was particularly impressed with the timelines she started making in the last couple weeks before our wedding day – it was so reassuring to know that I didn't have to keep track of what everyone was supposed to be doing or even where I needed to be. I learned after our wedding day that she even let my partner drop off a surprise gift for me at her house so it was waiting for me at my getting-ready location! All that to say – if you're thinking of hiring a planner or coordinator, you can't go wrong with Rebecca.

We hired Rebecca as our officiant for our wedding and honestly wish we would have hired her to be our planner/coordinator as well instead of the other company we went with. She was so incredible to work with and did such an amazing job on our ceremony script. It was better than we ever could have imagined and had several guests compliment on it as well. Highly recommend RMP Chicago Events!

Rebecca really made me feel comfortable in helping me put together a speech for my sister's wedding. I was really worried and almost at my wits end to the point I wanted to hire someone to write it. However; Rebecca walked me thru some questions that helped me put how I felt into words and now I have an awesome speech and no anxiety over it. 100% go with Rebecca.

Rebecca Pope was the best decision we made for our small wedding ceremony, and we cannot recommend her enough. We were from out of town, and she gave us a great walk through and heads up on the paperwork we'd need and set us up for success from the very beginning. Leading up to the ceremony we were given the options and the input we wanted, and on the day was immensely supportive and professional. We had a great time with her, and hope you do as well!

Rebecca was an absolutely amazing officiant. She took the time to get to know us (via email and Zoom calls) and personalize our vows to match the vision we had for our elopement. We only had 8 weeks to plan our elopement, but she was on top of her duties as an officiant every step of the way! She also gave us extra advice from her experience as a wedding planner. I highly recommend using RMP as your officiant and/or wedding planner!

Rebecca needs to be a part of your big day! As our officiant, she made our micro wedding extremely personal - and completely stress free. She went above and beyond with our ceremony - which included personalized notes from our family members. Our ceremony exceeded expectations. Rebecca is personable yet professional, an excellent communicator and super organized. She made certain we had everything we needed for a flawless wedding.

I’m writing a second review for Rebecca as we hired her last year for our mini elopement and hired her again for our big wedding/reception this year. Bottom line: HIRE HER! Rebecca is awesome at what she does. She is super organized, helps you stay on track for planning, is resourceful in helping you find and work with vendors, and is just a super genuine and thoughtful person to work with! She helped us plan a wedding amid the craziness of COVID, helping address any and all bumps in the road that are inevitable up until the day of! She is there for you and advocating for you throughout the process, start to finish. On the day of the wedding she freaking NAILED it. There are so many moving pieces - each of the wedding parties, the venue, the reception, all of the vendors - and she coordinated and executed everything for us beautifully. She is so thoughtful and well prepared. Need something you forgot? She has it. Know where you’re supposed to be? She does. Vendors supposed to be somewhere at a specific time? She’s on it. Your vision come to life? Yep, she did it. Seriously, our day went exactly as planned because of her. If you are debating whether or not a planner is worth it, I’ll tell you this - YES, especially Rebecca - whether you are having an intimate wedding or a big one!

Rebecca has been absolutely AMAZING. We completely pivoted our wedding due to COVID, postponing the big event to next year and instead eloping this year. Rebecca did such a fantastic job and has such attention to detail, listens to what you want, and handles all vendors professionally and perfectly. We planned everything in only a few months, and the day went just as planned! She handled every bump in the road for us, working to get us the perfect day. We loved her so much we hope to keep her for next year! Rebecca is also a licensed officiant and did a fantastic job marrying us. I am so glad we found her! If you are looking for a planner, hire her!!!

My wife and I hired Rebecca as our officiant for our recent wedding on July 3rd. We would give her 6 stars if we could. She went WAY above and beyond what we expected in all aspects. She was always quick to respond, super organized, and is also a wonderful person. We would not have been able to get married without her advice and help. Very thankful we hired her.

The BEST decision we made when planning our wedding was hiring Rebecca of RMP. I don't want to get cheesy or dramatic here, but I tear up when I think about how amazing she made our day and the weeks leading up to it. If you read nothing else from this review, read this: HIRE REBECCA.

We had Rebecca as our officiant at our wedding on 10/31/20. Our wedding was last minute and she brought everything together so beautifully. I couldn't recommend her enough. She was professional, knowledgeable, and full of personality. We are so happy and lucky to have Rebecca help us tie the knot on our special day!

As a venue owner, I could not recommend Rebecca enough. I have worked with her on multiple occasions, and she is always on top of her game and ensures that everything runs smoothly. She is extremely thorough, incredibly responsive, and she truly goes above and beyond for her clients.

I had the pleasure of working alongside Rebecca as a vendor for a wedding recently, and let me just say, she is a ROCK STAR planner that clearly takes pride in making her clients' wedding day vision come to life. As the owner of a wedding DJ company I have worked with many planners but rarely am I impressed enough / moved to review them. I would highly recommend Rebecca to any client looking for help with planning and wedding day execution.
