About Cygnet Events & Design

Cygnet Events and Design offers chic, affordable wedding planning and design, and has a reputation for being the best in the industry. Our team boasts over 40 years of collective experience and has seamlessly planned hundreds of events. From intimate affairs to lavish blowouts, we take pride in discerning each couple’s unique vision with care and expertise. We are annual award winners from The Knot and Wedding Wire, recently earning The Knot’s Hall of Fame award. 

We know how important it is to have a wedding that fits your personality and style. With options for all budgets and all stages in the planning process, Cygnet is the right fit for any couple who wants to celebrate sustainably. Our years of experience and trusted vendor relationships allow clients to relax while we handle the details.

Staying Sustainable

As 10+ year Chicago Green Wedding Alliance members—along with our sister company Arcana Vintage Rentals—we are committed to promoting sustainable events and giving back to our community. At events and in our studio, we recycle and take care to walk our clients through all of their greener planning options.

Overall, our goal is to minimize waste and maximize savings. Owner Kate has an educational background in ecology and loves to apply it to her work as a small business owner! 

We are a socially and environmentally conscious company that loves to give back. Aside from sustainability, our causes of choice include animal rescue, economic justice and elder care; we consider it an essential part of our mission to volunteer and support local charities.
