About
I have been in the waitstaff/planning industry for more than 30 years. A few of the places that I have work include: Halas Hall (Bears headquarters), Knollwood Country Club, Eaglewood Country Club, Friendship Village, UW, and numerous private clients and corporate events. One thing that makes my company stand out is our attention to details. I make sure that everything is done specifically as requested, because I want to ensure your satisfaction. We try to anticipate the next tasks so that the hosts can enjoy their guests and their event. Our reviews speak to our high level of service. Whether small or large, all events get our complete attention as we execute every detail. I enjoy meeting new people and being able to assist them with their special occasions. Weddings are our specialty from grass roots (DIY) to an extremely fancy coorodinated affair. I love seeing all the plans come together, where everyone gets to witness the "final successful production"! I also enjoy brain storming new ideas with my clients as we plan their events, because this enables us to continue to increase what we can offer clients as we continue to grow our company.

Ready and Able Events is a great company to partner with to do events. We worked together Amazon Event, and it was a very organized and enjoyable experience working with a team of companies to accomplish one goal Amazon personnel had a great time. Marshanell is a great leader, and everyone you selected for this event worked well together. Thank you for making us a part of it. We look forward to working with you in the future.

Working with Marshanell was an absolute pleasure. She is organized, responsive, and brings a calm, steady presence to every step of the planning process. Her communication was clear, timely, and made it easy for all vendors to work together smoothly. Because of her coordination, the event came together beautifully — every detail felt intentional, and the corporate team was genuinely thrilled with the results. Marshanell made sure everyone had what they needed and kept the entire day running effortlessly. I would happily work with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a professional, detail-oriented event planner who truly cares about creating a seamless experience.

This team is amazing. Extremely professional and more than up to the task! We worked with Marshanell for several months to plan our wedding. She was extremely accommodating and creative when it came to executing our vision exactly as we hoped and within budget. Our guests were beyond impressed and our event went off without a hitch. So grateful to have found Ready and Able and will always recommend them to anyone. Thanks to them for making our day truly unforgettable!

I was so impressed with Ready and Able Events. They were incredibly communicative and so very helpful and exploring what service we needed for our event. They showed up on time, well put together and contributed above their scope of work. Would hire them again!
