It's officially been 2 weeks since our wedding and it was the highlight of my life thanks to Brianne and Team MAE. Brianne is smart, charming, and confident, and exactly what we needed to feel comfortable planning our 3-day Indian/Pakistani wedding in Chicago all the way from Texas. While I have ZERO complaints about their services, I could speak for days on end about why they are the best in the business. From the day we hired them, Team MAE went above and BEYOND in every single aspect of our planning. Her team was always 3 steps ahead of us, and helped alleviate our wedding stress by taking care of most vendor communication, details, and concerns without us ever having to ask. She and her team were also extremely well versed in our traditions, cuisine, and dress which made us feel understood.
Although we knew Brianne was constantly managing other clients, traveling, and attending events, we never once felt like it was difficult to get a hold of her, and most meetings were scheduled when it was convenient for US. In fact, if I didn't know any better, it felt like we were her only clients, which just speaks to the unwavering care and attention she has given us (and is STILL helping us take care of post-event details) since we hired her over a year ago. If you are looking for a planner who knows this industry forwards and backwards, who can give you tasteful recommendations, advocate for you in every situation, and make wedding planning ENJOYABLE, then look no further than Team MAE.

Brianne and her team at MAE were unbelievable. They made the whole day so stress-free that I didn't have to worry about a thing besides having the best day of my life. They think of everything during the planning process and help track down emails and answers when you need them. They think of little details that I never would have thought of. I don't know what I would have done without them and I would trust them in planning my life!! Thank you, Brianne and Team MAE for making my wedding day more magical and amazing than I ever could have imagined.
Brianne and team MAE went absolutely above and beyond in getting us to and through our wedding weekend!! Brianne was the first vendor we selected, and we would make the same decision 1000x over. She is so experienced in Indian weddings, even with their multiple complicated ceremonies, and everything went off without a hitch. We and our parents and guests were able to absolutely enjoy every moment of our wedding weekend! She was extremely respectful with all our guests, and managed sooo many different moving pieces. During the planning process, Brianne held our hands every step of the way, and was so responsive and helpful in bringing our vision to life. We love team MAE!!!!
Hiring Brianne and her team was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! We had the pleasure of working with Brianne and Mariella, and Arika joined on the day-of. Brianne and Mariella provided us with thorough and thoughtful guidance throughout the year-long planning process, and connected us with wonderful vendors. On the day-of, we were kept at ease as the MAE team worked as a professional, well-oiled machine behind the scenes, leaving us and our families with peace of mind and a truly magical wedding day. In the days after our wedding, my husband and I agreed that MAE was key to making our wedding dreams come true!
We witnessed MAE's amazing work at our friend's wedding in 2021. After getting engaged and started planning, we decided to reach out and use them for our wedding! From the beginning, it was clear that MAE was the right choice for us. Brianne was so easy to work with and immediately understood our vision. She helped guide us through multiple conversations with vendors and helped ease any stress. After all the planning, we were finally ready for our big day. The security and peace of mind that Brianne and her team provided on wedding day was worth every penny. From helping us with final details, to even having all our reception supplies back in our hotel suite at the end of the night, their work was like magic. Even our family and guests couldn't help but compliment their professionalism and kindness. For anyone looking for a completely stress free wedding day, we highly recommend MAE!
Brianne and her team are worth their weight in gold in the wedding industry. From inception to the Big Day, she helped us seamlessly plan, design, and execute our vision at the Adler Planetarium. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome and all the support and guidance she provided throughout the entire process. On our wedding day, we were hit with unexpected torrential rain (even though we were monitoring the weather for 2 weeks prior to our wedding day). Brianne and her team sprung to action and immediately realigned everything to our indoor Plan B. Plan B was executed so well and beautifully our guests had no idea the original ceremony was meant to be outdoors. There are about 100 more examples that I can recall that made our day so special and perfect because of Brianne and her team. If you’re looking for real wedding professionals with style and a knack for detail and precision, you will not go wrong with Brianne and her team at MAE!
Wow, we have nothing but amazing things to say about Michigan Avenue Events. Brianne and her team were nothing but AMAZING to work with. We 100% would recommend any future bride and groom to choose Brianne as their wedding planner. Her attention to detail, professionalism, vibrant personality, and expertise is UNMATCHED. We can go on and on about how incredible she is. We just got married in September 2023, Brianne and her team made the entire day go extremely smooth. Every detail was spot on, and I seriously never had to worry about anything on my actual wedding day, because I knew it would be handled. Not only that, for the year leading up to the big day, she ensured we were up to date on contracts, meeting deadlines, recommending preferred vendors, and staying on track. She is very organized, which is an imperative quality we were looking for in a planner. She also was very responsive in a timely matter, which is very hard to find in the wedding industry. She truly made us feel special and went above and beyond for us. We are forever grateful for Brianne!
Brianne and MAE were absolutely PERFECT to work with. Brianne was always extremely responsive and always made us feel that our wedding was very important to her. We really felt like we were the only wedding that she was focusing on. The day-of execution was flawless as well. We had multiple guests tell us how perfect the day was and how everything seemed to flow together without any effort. I quote the mother of the groom directly: "I always found myself exactly where I needed to be without ever feeling like I was being led anywhere, it was like magic." If that doesn't sum up how perfect MAE executes an event, I don't know what does. Thank you so much for everything you did for us, it was the perfect day and more!
I had an excellent experience working with Brianne and team MAE. When I was planning my wedding, I had so many people tell me "Don't worry, no wedding is perfect, there's always something that goes wrong" Well, not my wedding! Thanks to the team at MAE, my day was absolutely perfect. They worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make sure that every detail was in the right place. They also helped me the month before my wedding with planning and logistics, and helped me make sure I had thought of everything before the big day. I can't say enough great things about Marquette Avenue Events!!
It's tough to truly communicate how amazing Bri and her team at MAE were. My wife and I immediately knew Bri was the planner we wanted to go with after our first meeting. She was able to show us and prove how much she cared, her empathy towards the process was second to none. MAE were so attentive and wouldn't let any detail be too small to review. Of course, our wedding was postponed cause of Covid...but Bri wouldn't let that affect us! She kept in touch throughout the entire time and was a huge help in our efforts to re-plan and finalize everything. We had known Bri came highly reviewed as two mutual friends of ours used her for their weddings but nothing could have prepared us for how impressed and how thankful we would be for her. Our wedding would not have been what it was without her Bri, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!! Mike and Lexi.
