About Sholeh Events

Sholeh Events

Owner & Event Director

I have been a wedding planner for over 20 years. I am here to support your ideas and help you find ways to make your wedding day the experience you imagine. I also specialize in planning weddings in a very short amount of time. Its a wonderful challenge and you’ll receive no judgement from me about your timelines! There are no geographic limitations. I’m comfortable working remotely for the planning process and have traveled extensively domestically and abroad. I have supported people from all backgrounds in their journey towards a lifetime of love together. I network extensively with other vendors & have a passion for collaboration.

My background is as a corporate and non-profit event planner, including a year and a half doing international work. The variety of the type of work that I have done over the course of my career means that I’ve seen it all…and I can handle it! A great part of the work of a planner is being a problem-solver combined with the knowledge of how to connect with people. This is my passion and who I am to my core – a people-person with an eye for detail and a brain for logistics. I don't come from a traditional "wedding planning" background, so I love thinking creatively about all aspects of weddings and how to support my couples with their goals.

In three words: Calm, Organized, Resourceful

    Sholeh was a our wedding planner. She is negotiable, organized and knowledgable about the wedding market in Chicago. A wedding can be stressful and costly if you don't have someone who can help you this all the little decisions. Sholeh was a helpful guide to novice event planners.

    Sholeh was absolutely incredible to work with! From the very beginning, she made everything so easy and helped us work through every bump, hiccup, or stressful moment. She truly helped us put together the wedding of our dreams and we can honestly say it would not have been possible without her! Because of her, our wedding day went so smoothly. She made sure all of our vendors communicated with each other and everything was done perfectly and on time. We could not recommend her enough!

    Two years ago we worked with Sholeh for our wedding in the hot Alabama summer. She assisted with all the pre-wedding planning and the day of. There's so much more to a wedding than we even imagined and she helped with all of it! Everything went smoothly and she was such a great assistance! She has beautiful and creative ideas and is very professional! We love her!

    That was truly one of the most hot days that I have ever experienced as a planner - but the joy and love from your family and friends was exceptional and I enjoyed every aspect. That BBQ was delicious too.

  • Great experience working with Sholeh!

    Sholeh Events was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very first meeting, she demonstrated a highly organized and transparent communication style, ensuring we were informed every step of the way. Sholeh truly went above and beyond, anticipating our needs and handling any challenges seamlessly behind the scenes so we could fully enjoy our special day. She was on top of every detail, and if anything went wrong, we had no idea because Sholeh was so well-organized. We would highly recommend Sholeh Events to any couple planning their wedding - she made the process smooth and stress-free, and helped make our wedding day perfect.
