“As an Entertainment Director/Event Manager myself, I’m blown away by Franklin. It was important for me to hire someone I could trust to handle the organization for my wedding day. After our first meeting with Franklin, I knew he understood what we wanted. I was thrilled to know he was available for our wedding, and I feel like we couldn’t have made a better choice. Before the wedding day, I was so relieved when Franklin came over to pick up all the decor. He even stopped by on the morning of the wedding to check on us and pick up any last-minute items. This alone really touched me because many people don’t go that extra mile, but Franklin does! I was seriously stressing about how to get those items delivered, and Franklin came right along and eased all that stress! He took our ideas and exceeded our expectations. We are Funko Pop collectors, so we wanted a fun way to incorporate them into our wedding decor, and he did it with ease. He surprised us several times throughout the event, and those memories are some of my favorite moments. When he revealed the reception dining room, which he had decorated for us, I was filled with chills. I couldn’t believe he took my simple idea and made it look so GRAND; it was next level. Then we walked over to the cookie and cake table, where I was seriously at a loss for words. I was blown away by the details he displayed in his decorating. It seemed like a scene from a movie. Before walking down the aisle, we learned that one of our food caterers was extremely late delivering the food and potentially wasn’t going to deliver it at all. Franklin was calm but still urgent in his demeanor, and I totally appreciated his proactive professionalism. Moments like these can really test any event coordinator's patience and could cause a domino effect. I don’t know exactly what happened or what he did, but all the food was there and ready to be served when it was time to eat. Our guests LOVED our wedding. They all mentioned how different and elevated our wedding was, and I’m 100% sure that had a lot to do with Franklin’s hard work. We wanted something unique, and he delivered. Overall, I’m truly grateful to have met Franklin and want to also shine some light on his assistant, Will. Both of their A, fun, efficacious attitudes just make everything better. I was able to kick back and watch my wedding day unfold beautifully. For those who work in events/entertainment, you know how hard it is to go to any event and not feel like you’re working, especially your own event (lol). Franklin is a star, and I’m sure he’s going to go far in the event business. He understands the importance of an event and how each event is personally unique. Most importantly, he takes the time to know and understand his clients.”

“I have worked alongside Sydney multiple times at weddings around Michigan and have seen a lot of her process. I can tell you she is big on quick communication and making sure every expectation is clearly defined and communicated prior to the wedding. This is key when you're trying to plan your wedding day and make sure that everything is laid out to be not only efficient but also get you the kinds of photos she's displaying on her website. On the day of the wedding she is always calm, yet at the same time, directive, in a chill and friendly kind of way. She helps everyone relax and enjoy the day, which is a big thing considering the photographer is the person that the wedding couple is going to be around for the vast majority of the day. I know that even though she is a busy photographer, she delivers galleries pretty quickly, because she's showing me some of the galleries that I've shot with her as soon as she's finished with them. So if you're looking for someone who is going to solidly communicate with you through the whole process and then deliver your (quality) photos in a reasonable amount of time, she would be a good choice!”

Many of the the party planning companies I'd talked to seemed confused or uncomfortable with this slightly unconventional request - but not Fierce! They had great ideas, great advice and went out of their way to find vendors, decor and ideas that exactly matched our vision.

She really knows what she is doing and helped me figure out what I wanted. Day of the wedding, she made everyone feel so comfortable and got beautiful pictures of the day. Nothing felt forced, as her candid style of photography is exactly what I pictured for my day. She captured every part of the day, from the big events down to the tiniest details. My husband, who is very camera shy and often takes awkward pictures because of it (lol) got GREAT pictures and actually comments often about how much he loves the pictures (which NEVER happens).

After talking to Jessica about my hopes and vision for our wedding flowers, and seeing her proposal, I knew she was the florist for us!! The flowers for our wedding were GORGEOUS! We got so many compliments on how beautiful every bouquet, bout, and centerpiece was. On top of ordering and creating everything for our wedding day, my mother in law called Jessica the week of our wedding to see if she could make centerpieces for our rehearsal dinner (there was last minute drama with the original florist my MIL chose). Jessica amazingly said no problem, and created beautiful Tuscan themed center pieces for our wine cellar rehearsal dinner. I HIGHLY recommend Anemone Creative for your floral and centerpiece needs.

“The Nicodem team is everything you want and need in a photography team for your big day. Not only are they incredibly personable, they are extremely organized, professional, efficient, and talented. When we began inquiring with photographers for our wedding, we were having a hard time finding the right fit because everything seemed so impersonal. The Nicodems reached out with a beautiful email and wanted to schedule a phone call for our consultation. Our 30 minute conversation turned into an hour because they were so lovely and I felt like they truly cared about getting to know us, learning our story our story, and hearing about our vision for our day! We knew that they would be the perfect fit. Our engagement photos were so fun with them and they turned out incredible. Leading up to the wedding weekend the Nicodems frequently checked in with us to see how we were doing, if we needed anything, and even sent us flowers (how cute is that?!?!). During our wedding day, we weren't worried about anything because we knew the Nicodem Team would take care of everything. We were calm and able to focus on the joy of the day. The Nicodems did a fabulous job organizing my crazy and big family, capturing special moments, and being our pump-up squad. After the wedding they gave us some sneak peeks and we were dying to see more. Within the timeline provided they gave us our full gallery, and 2 years later, we look at it almost monthly. The only regret is that I wish we booked them for video too!! Your wedding photos and video are forever, to make sure they are perfect, make sure you have the Nicodem Team for both! Thank you Nicodems! You are the absolute best :) xx, The Campions”

I am a fine art wedding photographer who makes your photos more FUN. I'm for the couples who want to show the JOY while still getting those beautiful, editorial images. Ever since my first wedding in 2006 (where I developed the negatives in the darkroom myself), I have been obsessed with capturing couples' love stories. I was born and raised in Chicago where I still split half my time, but I will travel all over the world to capture your love. You can always find me covered in an endless supply of dog hair or hiding chapsticks in several locations around my home.

“Kristin did our engagement and wedding photos and they are all absolutely incredible! Before we even had a session with Kristin, she was super helpful and responsive. She gave vendor recommendations and timeline suggestions which were greatly appreciated! I had trouble deciding on a location for our engagement photos and Kristin did a great job at giving recommendations. We had so much fun shooting with her and I immediately knew we made the right choice. Kristin is so fun to be around! She’s funny, she’s the ultimate hype girl, and she gives great direction. Kristin helped make my wedding day truly incredible and we had a blast spending all day with her. I’m so sad that it’s all over now, but we would rehire in a heartbeat! She is such a gem and you will never regret booking her!”
