About Ohana Events

Ohana Events

AN ENTIRE EXPERIENCE OF CAREFUL PLANNING, CLIENT CARE, AND REAL LIFE DREAMS COMING TRUE

Ohana Events is an elevated event planning and design company based in both Chicago & South Florida, but often travel for their events, with distances as far as Mexico and Italy. The Ohana team strives to make the entire planning process, from first meeting to the big day a stress-free experience. Let’s face it, weddings and events are more than just one long day. Months, and sometimes years, of hard work are put into building a celebration – hopefully with lots of champagne toasts and happy tears along the way!

We have a range of planners with different personalities and different skill sets, located across the US, so we try to perfectly pair the correct planner with each client. Also, because so much time, money and effort are put into every single event, the team at Ohana Events feels it’s important to make the entire experience one that you will cherish and remember forever. There is no need to stress, no need to worry, and no need to look any further. Meet your new designer. Your new mentor. Your new friend.

In three words: Creative, Resourceful, Thoughtful

  • Ohana is a NEED!

    Hiring Ohana and working with Sonya was easily the best decision we made while wedding planning. I was hesitant to hire an outside coordinator because we had a venue coordinator, but the venue coordinator does not do nearly the amount that Ohana does. Hiring Ohana is a NEED. I was first introduced to Danielle and we instantly connected. I felt she understood my vision and wanted to help create our dream wedding. We were lucky enough to be assigned to Sonya for the 90-day coordination package and she was the kindest, most patient, and organized planner. She responded quickly to emails and answered all of my questions, she took over communication with vendors and relieved much of the planning stress, she provided detailed checklists and kept me on track. She also created a detailed by the minute itinerary for the entire weekend for us, our vendors, and a shorthand version for our bridal party which was extremely helpful. Our wedding day was seamless with no hiccups and I can honestly thank Sonya for that. She made sure to keep the day moving on schedule, communicated with all of the vendors, and made sure to check in with me often. Even wedding guests and our parents gave raving reviews for Sonya. My husband and I agree that hiring Ohana and being able to work with Sonya was the best investment we would do all over again, and we recommend them to everyone. I wish I had hired Sonya sooner! Best wedding coordinator of all time. It is true, Ohana means family, and that is exactly how the team treats you.

    Jenna was AMAZING! The day was seamless and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. She took care of the timeline and made sure that literally every detail was taken care of. We couldn’t have enjoyed our day without her! She is so incredibly nice, professional, and wonderful to work with!

    I had the pleasure of working with Ohana Events Sr. Planner, Rachel. She was beyond fantastic. Rachel was prompt with communication, answering questions, and put together the most organized and detailed wedding timeline. She made me feel so at ease on my wedding day because I knew she had everything under control. I can't thank her enough for making my wedding day perfect! Any bride will be lucky to work with her!
