We’re from New Jersey, and this was our first time booking a hair and makeup team in Illinois — and wow, what an amazing experience! We initially booked Hairs2theBride for one event just for hair, but they were so good that we ended up booking them for our second event as well. We had to change the time for the second event at the last minute, and Mike was so accommodating — he even offered to bring in a third stylist to make sure we were ready on time. That level of flexibility and professionalism was such a relief, especially being from out of state. Hayley was amazing to work with. She completely exceeded our expectations — the hairstyles came out even better than the inspiration photos! She was kind, personable, and funny, and made us feel so comfortable throughout the process. Eva did a fantastic job with makeup. Her airbrush foundation was flawless and lasted all night. For our second event, Chrissy did our makeup and absolutely killed it — the eyeshadow especially was beautifully blended and truly to die for. Honestly, the hair and makeup were even better than some of the artists I’ve worked with in NYC for other weddings! Overall, we were so impressed with the entire team. The prices were affordable, everyone was professional, and they went above and beyond to make everything perfect. It genuinely felt like getting ready with family — warm, fun, and effortless. For our first Illinois experience, Hairs2theBride set the bar incredibly high. We truly hope we get to work with them again in the future!

We booked Well Told Weddings for our photographer and I would book them again! Sal was our photographer, he did a wonderful job, was so much fun and the photos turned out fantastic.

Rolling Green Country Club is an excellent choice for a wedding venue weather it be for just for a ceremony or reception. The onsite coordinator, Anna, and her team were incredibly amicable, helpful, and calm throughout the entire ceremony setup. Anna's coordination with my team during the ceremony setup made the process a breeze. Additionally, Anna and her team did an outstanding job cueing the wedding party, bride and groom, and guests for their timely entrances, which tremendously helped ensure a smooth ceremony flow.

We had our wedding in the Cellar room at Cooper’s Hawk Winery & Restaurant in Arlington Heights, and it was everything we dreamed. The room is truly fantastic because it sits downstairs away from the rest of the restaurant for a truly private event. Additionally, the room includes a large bar and even a small dance floor. We worked well with the event planning team who made us feel supported, valued, and at ease during what can be an overwhelming planning process. The food was absolutely phenomenal. It was beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and served with perfect timing. The delivery of restaurant-quality dining for a wedding is truly impressive. Our guests are still raving about how delicious everything was from start to finish. The service was outstanding as well. The staff was attentive without ever feeling intrusive, extremely professional, and incredibly organized. Everything flowed seamlessly, allowing us to enjoy every moment without a single worry. One of the things that meant the most to us was how flexible and accommodating they were with the décor. They allowed us to transform the space into a very elegant setting that perfectly matched our vision. Every detail, from the color palette to the floral and candle arrangements, was able to shine because they gave us the space and freedom to design the atmosphere we wanted. They also worked beautifully with all of our vendors, making coordination easy and stress-free. A very special thank-you goes to our event manager, who was truly exceptional. She was responsive, patient, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. Her calm leadership and clear communication ensured that everything came together effortlessly. Our wedding day felt elegant, seamless, and unforgettable—and so much of that is because of the incredible team at Cooper’s Hawk - Arlington Heights.

Hi! We are Mark and Ligia Chiu- a Chicago based photography/videography husband/wife team. I started Ligia Chiu Photography about 10 years ago when I was searching for a creative outlet during my very science courses of pharmacy school. What started as a simple hobby capturing moments for my close friends, soon blossomed into something more profound and my passion for photography has grown steadily over the years.

We knew the moment we got engaged that we wanted Ligia Chiu to be our wedding photographer! She took the time to understand our vision for the wedding, scouted out potential locations beforehand, and guided us every step of the way. Right away, Ligia surprised us by asking for a list of "must-have" photos. She was all about capturing our moments. On the day itself, she had this incredible ability to make everyone feel comfortable and relaxed. When we received the photos, it was like reliving the entire day, but with the added bonus of Ligia's artistic eye. She has a true talent for capturing the essence of the day and the personalities of everyone involved. We HIGHLY recommend Ligia Chiu to anyone looking for an exceptional wedding photographer!

I'm an artist by nature. I love photography, but I also love to paint. Growing up I could color for hours. I come from one of those families where everyone is passionate. Things are really loud and your mom asks you when you've eaten last when you walk in the door. If you come from one of these families, you know exactly what I mean. When my son was born I picked up a camera and embarked on a challenge to learn as much as I could about digital photography. I love to be with people and I love to make people feel good about themselves. We should all have a hype girl and I'd love to be yours.

Sarah not only takes amazing photos, she has an easygoing personality that puts you at ease on your wedding day. Her organizational skills make the day run smoothly and keeps the stress away!

So, I proposed. That was the easy part. She’s all that and then some. I got blessed on this one. When she said yes, it wasn’t just yes, it was ABSOLUTELY. Say less. Now here’s where it gets real. I’m not exactly the “go with the flow” type, but somehow, some way, I ended up winning twice. She agreed to a destination wedding. Yeah, let’s go ahead and call that what it is, a major victory. Enter Destify. Options on options. Locations everywhere. And people who actually get it. They understand weddings, they understand brides, and they even made space for a groom who wanted to be more than just “show up in the right color and smile.” You know what I mean. From picking the date, to locking in the resort, to all the details in between, they made what could have been overwhelming feel smooth. Let me give credit where it’s due: Jasmine — the truth. Always had us. Never left us hanging. Tikva — a special kind of patience (and we needed that). Michelle and Kiki — thank you for getting us started the right way. And even the guy behind the website support, next level. Bottom line, most fellas set it, forget it, and show up. I wanted to be involved. And throughout this whole process, my fiancée and I have felt supported, excited, and taken care of. We’re officially riding the Destify wave. And when we land on the shore of this marriage, best believe I’ll be back with another shout out.

I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.

From the very beginning, she was incredibly organized and consistently thought of details we never would have considered on our own. Leading up to our November 2025 wedding, we met weekly, and Haylie made sure we had everything in place to create the wedding of our dreams. I had a clear vision of what I wanted our wedding day to look like, and Haylie went above and beyond to make sure every single detail was executed perfectly. There is truly no way we could have done this ourselves, especially during the week of and the day of the wedding. Haylie coordinated all of our vendors, set up the decor, and made sure I was taken care of throughout the entire day.

The Bluewater Kings Band was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From our first interaction, their communication was timely and incredibly helpful as we planned the music for our big day. On the wedding day, they brought an incredible energy and talent that got all our guests out on the dance floor and created a fun, lively atmosphere that we're still raving about. The Bluewater Kings Band truly went above and beyond to ensure our wedding was a night to remember. We couldn't recommend them more highly for any couple looking for a talented, professional band that will keep the party going all night long.

From the very beginning, Daniel exceeded every expectation. Daniel was extremely organized and followed up immediately after every meeting, which gave us so much confidence throughout the planning process. As an interracial couple blending of our cultures was important to us and having a bilingual DJ and MC was a non negotiable. Daniel was the perfect fit. He was very fairly priced and offered everything we were looking for, including CO2 guns, a Photobooth with an attendant, and the ability to personalize the Photobooth experience for our guests — all of which ran incredibly smoothly. It was helpful to have all of these things through one single vendor rather than multiple people to coordinate. What truly set him apart was how intentional and thoughtful he was with our music. He helped us create a detailed plan that included songs we loved, songs we didn’t want played, and the exact timing for everything. Most importantly, he seamlessly blended both of our cultures throughout the night in a way that felt natural and effortless. Our dance floor was full the entire night. He also communicated directly with our wedding planners to ensure the timeline was perfect, which allowed the day to flow without a single hiccup. If you are looking for a DJ who is organized, professional, culturally aware, and knows how to keep the party going all night long, we could not recommend him more!!
