LUXURY CHICAGO
EVENT EXPERIENCES
Chicago's premier luxury wedding planner and event designer. Weddings, ceremonies, and milestone celebrations, designed with restraint and produced without compromise.
Frank Andonoplas is Chicago's premier luxury wedding planner and event designer — working with a limited number of clients each year so every event receives his complete attention.
Frank designs and produces a carefully limited number of weddings and private events each year — so every couple, family, and host receives his complete attention from first conversation to last dance. Services span full-service wedding planning and design, event styling, officiating, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, luxury birthday events, and corporate productions across Chicago, the North Shore, and select destinations.

ABOUT FRANK
An atelier of one, by design.

"Frank built our wedding the way an architect builds a house — patient, structural, beautiful. We didn't lift a finger on the day."
