Eight years ago, I was a bride with a vision—a celebration filled with personal touches, unforgettable details, and cherished moments. But like many, I found myself overwhelmed by a demanding career and the weight of planning it all alone. That’s when my own wedding planner, Ginger, stepped in and made the impossible feel effortless.
Now, I’m here to do the same for you.
At Pearl & Pine, I help couples bring their dream weddings to life—without the stress. Whether you're full of ideas or just getting started, I’ll be your partner in turning vision into reality, so you can soak in every joyful, heart-fluttering moment of your big day.
ABOUT ME
Hi, I'm Hillary — Your Calm in the Chaos and Your Creative Co-Pilot
My journey into wedding planning began alongside my sister-in-law, the founder of The Final Touch Chicago. From day one, I was all in—shaping marketing strategies, streamlining systems for scalable growth, and serving as a wedding coordinator on her team. Over the past four years, I’ve been immersed in every detail, every emotion, and every joyful celebration—and I fell in love with the process.
For the Dreamers Who Just Need a Partner
You know the wedding you want—full of joy, personality, and unforgettable details—but life is moving fast. Maybe you're starting a new job, buying a home, or simply juggling too many to-dos to focus on planning the biggest celebration of your life.
That’s where I come in.
I specialize in helping couples who have big dreams and busy lives. Whether you're unsure how to begin, overwhelmed by decisions, or trying to stick to a budget, I’ll guide you every step of the way. Together, we’ll bring your vision to life—on time, on budget, and with a whole lot of heart.
No matter the size of your celebration, we’ll craft a wedding that’s meaningful, beautifully executed, and talked about for years to come.
