The best planner!

There would never be enough words to describe all that Cori and her team did for us for our wedding. I initially contacted her 3 months prior to our wedding as I thought I could do it all on my own - big mistake! She jumped right in and handled absolutely everything in such a timely and calm manner. Wedding day was upon us and she made sure everything was done, we had time to chill/rest/relax knowing that she would handle all the details. I hope if you are reading this and looking for a wedding planner you book with Cori. It was the best money I ever spent on my wedding. Love Cori and her team!

Great service for May 2024 wedding

Genevieve and the Composure team were wonderful help bringing our dream wedding to life! We utilized their “Day Of” package where meetings began about 2 months out from our wedding day and Genevieve helped keep us on track for final planning and make sure the day was executed correctly. She was detailed, organized, and knew our hired vendors well so it was easy coordinate everything. A big bonus from working with Composure was getting their preferred vendor list from the very start which made our planning process so much easier! We were very happy with all the vendors we worked with off of their list.

We would highly recommend Composure for your wedding, they provided good service for a reasonable price.

Composure Events is 11/10!!!!

WOW. I do not even know how explain how wonderful it was to work with Composure Events for our wedding. We specifically worked with Cori and booked the Fully Composed package to have full-service planning from start to finish, and we have zero regrets. Cori and her team are professional, organized, enthusiastic, and creative. I felt at ease and stress-free throughout the entire planning process. I never had questions about what we needed to do next or what vendors we should book for the best experience, because Cori always had it handled with the best ideas, and organized timeline, and trusted vendor recommendations. Every vendor she recommended delivered exactly how she said they would. We were so pleased!! Not only did Cori help our special day come together so seamlessly, she doubled as our moral support, friend, and sounding board. Especially the day of the wedding, she was always there with a shout wipe, lip gloss, Advil, a hug, or a drink of course :) An honorable mention was the night of our rehearsal dinner, it rained and we were having an outdoor garden party. Rain was not in the forecast, so we did not have a tent. Cori ran to the Dollar Tree and rushed back with as many umbrellas as she could find. She was always there to save the day! Our design came together so beautifully. Cori and her team brought our Pinterest board to life, and even better than we could have imagined. Composure Events has an eye for high quality material and cares about every detail. Overall, we could not have chosen a better team for our wedding planning process and we would recommend Composure Events to anyone and everyone.

Team

Cori  Gibaud
Cori Gibaud
Head Coordinator

In addition to Wedding Planner and Entrepreneur, Cori lovingly holds the roles of wife to a British comedian & mother to the cutest BOSS baby.

Before Composure, she spent her life as a part of the ‘behind the scenes’ for hundreds of global events. Some of her favorite countries she has spent extensive time in have been Italy, Thailand, and India, and she incorporates design and lessons from all over the world into her Composures systems and protocol. This sets Composure’s planning experience apart from the Midwest norm. Each member of the Composure team is trained in the same tested and proven planning & design strategies.

Even with hundreds of events behind her, she still approaches each client with a fresh passion and enthusiasm. Being apart of your story in this small way makes her own so much better.

Rebecca has been in the corporate events sphere for years. She joined Composure after getting married herself and realizing she wanted to mix her event planning skills with the joy of planning a wedding (and party) for others!

Rebecca was trained under Cori's systems and expertise in order to take on "theGrandFinale" clients for day of planning. She also joins as assistant coordinator on other wedding days.
