Which Type of Event Shoppe Chicago Couple Are You?
At Event Shoppe Chicago, no two weddings we plan are alike. And that’s because no two couples are exactly alike! Every couple we work with has a distinct style and different priorities for their big day. Some embrace the wedding traditions that feel right for them, while others boldly blaze their own path. Some pay careful attention to every design detail, while others just want to throw an unforgettable party.
We firmly believe every couple deserves a wedding that truly feels like them, but getting there isn’t always straightforward. Whether you’re dealing with family pressure or trying to figure out what you *actually* like (and what’s just social media noise), we’re here to help you identify your wedding planning personality.
We like to say there are four types of Event Shoppe Chicago couples: The Storyteller, The Voguer, Good Vibes, and Anti-Wedding. Today we’re sharing a bit about each type, plus a fun tool we’ve created to help you find yours. Don’t worry, this isn’t about fitting you and your partner into a box. It’s simply a lighthearted starting point for planning your wedding your way.
The Four Types of Event Shoppe Chicago Couples
The Storyteller
This couple doesn’t want to abandon tradition, but they don’t want to plan a cookie-cutter wedding either. Their family heritage matters, and they want to honor it. Whether that’s through a four-course fusion menu or a cultural performance during cocktail hour, our team has extensive experience planning thoughtful multicultural weddings.
The Storyteller also enjoys details that help tell their love story. Think gallery walls of engagement photos and custom monogramming.
The Voguer
If you and your partner appreciate beauty for beauty’s sake, The Voguer could be your wedding planning personality. This couple loves magazine-worthy details like lush floral installations, wrapped dance floors, and picture-perfect lighting. They want their wedding to feel curated, like stepping inside their personal fairytale. This type is also drawn to editorial portraits and Instagrammable photo ops.
Good Vibes
The Good Vibes couple never met a party they didn’t like. Known for their fun-loving personalities, they focus their planning efforts on creating a memorable guest experience. Their ultimate goal is a packed dance floor. They also love sprinkling unexpected touches into their day, whether that’s a cigar lounge, an edible escort card display, or a show-stopping exit complete with fireworks.
Anti-Wedding
This couple isn’t actually “anti”-wedding. They just don’t want to be told what to do. Traditions aren’t their thing, and they hate the idea of their wedding being mistaken for anyone else’s. Nontraditional attire, off-the-wall themes, and unconventional venues are all on the table. And as their planner-advocates, we’re happy to be along for the ride. The bolder, the better in our book!
What If We Have Different Planning Personalities?
This is expected and understandable, since you and your partner are two different people. Often, our couples are a combination of two planning personalities. You could be a Good Vibes Storyteller, an Anti-Wedding Voguer, or any other possible combination. We aren’t here to limit you—we’re here to help you balance priorities when necessary and stay focused on what matters to you.
Find Your Wedding Planning Personality
Now that you’re familiar with the four types of Event Shoppe Chicago couples, it’s time to identify which one you are. Take the quiz with your partner, or take it separately to find your combo type (or find out you’re even more similar than you thought!).
Then, reach out to us. The quiz is a great starting point, but the real fun comes when you get to watch your wedding vision come to life. Our team wants that for you, and your best interests drive us. Whether you’re brimming with ideas for telling your story or planning a ceremony that no one’s ever heard before, we can’t wait to hear about it!
