LOLA’s collaborative style is perfect for the client seeking to create a unique, beautiful and FUN wedding and for the couple that are seeking a streamlined and enjoyable planning experience.

LOLA has been named one of the best wedding planning companies in the world by Vogue Magazine, Best Wedding Planners in the Country by Brides Magazine and Best Wedding Planners in Chicago by Chicago Magazine. Their online reviews speak for themselves, and the best hotels and event venues in Chicagoland and beyond recommend them.

Lori's career in the wedding business started her freshman year of college when she began designing and making custom bridal gowns and accessories while interning for some of the biggest designers in New York City and attending Parsons School of Design. She was awarded a senior thesis scholarship that focused on the history and customs surrounding weddings in multiple cultures and has spent the last 25+ years building her experience within every facet of the wedding industry. Her team of talented Pros have a combined 100+ years of planning experience under their collective belt. Put "LOLA Hive” (as we call our collective brain-power) to work for your event!
