CHICAGO-BASED EVENT PLANnER & HOSPITALITY STRATEGIST

Weddings. Galas. Corporate. Social. 

kristina taheri special events

Kristina Taheri has spent two decades learning how a room works. Not just how it looks, but how it feels to be inside.

Her career spans Manhattan, San Francisco, and Chicago. The settings changed. But the standard never did: every guest should feel like the most important person in the room.

We take care of the details no one sees: The handoffs, the timing, the behind-the-scenes decisions that let the night breathe. So you never have to think about them. 

That's not just planning. That's hospitality.

WHO WE ARE

And while the planning took time, it was not overwhelming. I think that was largely thanks to Kristina's good taste and guidance.”

“It was among the best nights of our lives”

THE CELEBRATIONS

Design that stops you. 
Details that move you. 
Decisions that make it all feel effortless.

These gatherings—large, small, corporate, personal—carry that balance.

Claire

I knew Kristina's vision and reputation would deliver. I was grateful she had an opinion along the way — it matched my dreams and helped bring everything to life. 

“The room was an absolute dream.”

An assured presence that anticipates needs before they surface. And ensures you and your guests feel at ease.

WHAT WE OFFER

HOSPITALITY AT THE HELM 

Ongoing communication, clear expectations, and thoughtful planning that make the experience feel easy for everyone in the room.

PREPARATION THAT PAYS OFF 

Not every detail affects the whole. The right ones do. We know the difference.


AN EYE FOR DETAILS 

Design and planning stay linked from the start, so the event moves in one clear direction.

A COHESIVE POINT OF VIEW 

“Kristina is well organized and always keeping things moving and on point — allowing me the ability to stop worrying about the little things.”
