Ken transformed our wedding into an unforgettable celebration. His ability to keep the energy high for every guest was truly impressive. The dance floor stayed packed even after the wedding had ended and the venue was wrapping up. He handled all the music and microphones from the pre-ceremony through the reception, which was awesome. We didn’t have to worry about renting any equipment because he came fully prepared with everything we needed for the entire day. From the moment the dance floor opened, Ken had the dance floor packed. He played a fantastic set of songs that everyone knew and loved, ensuring that no one was left sitting out, but also had no lulls in the energy of the night. His knack for reading the crowd and playing the right songs at the right time kept people dancing all night long. One standout feature was the music videos he played on the screen of his dj booth. This was a nice touch, especially for those who might have felt a bit shy about hitting the dance floor. It allowed everyone to enjoy the ambiance, whether they were dancing or simply watching and singing along. Ken also excelled as an emcee. He smoothly directed the flow of activities, ensuring that transitions between different parts of the evening were seamless. One of the highlights of the night was the group photo he organized. Ken took the initiative to gather everyone for a memorable photo op, which turned out to be a fantastic keepsake for everyone at the wedding. The moving photo booth was another hit. Ken's assistant, Chris, walked around with a camera attached to a ring light in order to capture both candid and posed shots. Guests who were dancing or lounging at their dinner tables could easily join in the fun of a photo booth, as it came right to them. Ken allowed my sister (the maid of honor) to use his dj booth for a slideshow during her speech, which was an exciting surprise for me (the bride) and all our guests. He was overall very patient with all our requests and even shared edits of the songs for the first dances, making sure everything was just right before the big day. Ken did a fantastic job making our wedding a night to remember. His skills as a DJ and his flexible approach really made a difference in making our day perfect. If you want someone who will help your entire event go smoothly and keep the party going, Ken is definitely a fantastic choice. Highly recommended!

We are beyond grateful to our incredible wedding planner for helping bring our Garden Summer Wedding to life on June 14, 2025. From start to finish, the planning process was smooth, collaborative, and truly enjoyable. Every detail reflected our personalities and vision—from the romantic florals of eucalyptus, hydrangeas, and roses with soft touches of purple, to the perfectly arranged tent and décor that made our backyard feel magical. Our planner worked seamlessly with us and our vendors to make the day unforgettable. From accommodating fun and unexpected elements like a white bounce house castle and a vintage plum crazy 1970 Dodge Challenger, to helping coordinate Andrew and his son’s surprise dirt bike entrance—nothing was ever too big or too small. Their professionalism and calm presence allowed us to relax and fully enjoy every moment. Thank you for turning our ideas into something even more beautiful than we imagined. You gave us a day full of joy, laughter, and cherished memories—we couldn’t have done it without you! With heartfelt thanks, Yulia & Andrew

A decade in professional theater. Nine years as a fine art street photographer. Now I shoot weddings. The theater taught me comfort—how to help nervous couples relax and forget the camera. The street work trained my eye—finding extraordinary frames in ordinary moments, chasing light like it owes me money. The result: signature portraits that feel like paintings and a shoot that feels like hanging out with a friend. 300+ weddings. 151+ five-star reviews. A 10-photographer team. Zero cookie-cutter work. Camera-shy? Creative? Both? Let's talk.

We are absolutely thrilled with our experience working with Jeremy! He is so considerate, professional, and easy to talk to. He is incredibly creative and motivated to make our dreams come to life. He was even willing to hike in a forest with us on a hot, buggy evening to capture the most beautiful photos we've ever seen that will forever remind us of our special day. 10/10, no complaints - he is simply the best!

Not only was the quality amazing, but their services were also very affordable, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Jaide and her team were also so communicative and flexible throughout the whole process of booking to the wedding date. I absolutely loved my bridal look! When I had my makeup trial with Emily back in March, I wasn’t entirely sure what style I wanted. The trial look was beautiful, but I realized it didn’t quite feel like “me.” On my wedding day, I showed Emily a new inspiration photo, and I completely trusted her to bring it to life, even though we hadn’t tried it before. She absolutely nailed it and I can truly say that I have never felt more beautiful!

Since 1930, our family has been baking quality products for dessert lovers like you. Our story begins with my father-in-law, John Slove, being hired to work as an apprentice in a Chicago bakery. While there he learned everything there is to know about baking. Then, in 1946, he and my mother-in-law, Grace, opened their own bakery on Diversey Avenue in Chicago – Slove Bakery. Their goal was to produce great quality desserts and provide excellent customer service: he did the baking; she the handshaking. Through hard work and determination, they grew the business and the bakery’s reputation as one of the finest in the Chicagoland area.

Lovin Oven Cakery was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. From the beginning, they were incredibly responsive and organized in their communication, making selecting and customizing our cake a breeze.

Ann Marie is an exceptional event orchestrator. I've been with Kehoe Designs for 20 years designing luxury events and weddings with her, and in that time, I've not come across another person that is as professional, exquisitely organized, and talented as a manager of details as she is. If you are looking for someone to work with that will be an advocate for you but will also "handle it" when it comes to your event or wedding, I urge you not to look further. In my opinion, the goal of a wedding or event planner is to navigate you through all the tough decisions and make your life easier. Ann Marie will do that for you in spades.

I cannot recommend Wendy and Renee enough! They did hair and makeup for myself, 4 bridesmaids, and my two moms for my wedding day. Everyone looked absolutely incredible and I appreciated how Wendy and Renee really captured everyone's unique style and aesthetic so everyone looked and felt their best. I'm a professional actor so I'm used to getting my hair and MU done. Hands down, this was the best hair/MU experience I've ever had.

Annette was an absolute delight to work with from the very beginning. She had fantastic communication and was there on my wedding day for several hours making sure everything was perfect. The flowers were absolutely gorgeous, I was obsessed with the bouquets, boutonnières, and arch flowers. I am so happy with my choice to go with Annette and would do it over again 100% if I had to. 10/10!!

Jenny was a wonderful pianist at the ceremony. She was able to play all the songs we requested even some Spanish ones. The guests really enjoyed how she played she is very talented. The process to hire her was very easy and she responded the same day that I inquired for pricing. We were able to set up an initial meeting and she answered all of my questions. She uses an online template to allow you to set up the songs for each section it was very organized. If there was not a song on the list, I was able to ask her about them and she added them.
