The bouquets and arrangements they created were truly unique and beautiful, with full, lush flowers that perfectly complemented the style of our wedding. The florals really added to the overall beauty and elegance of our special day. The only downside was that payments had to be made in cash, which was a bit inconvenient, but their exceptional service and stunning floral work made it well worth it.

I am a mother, wife, and business owner. I created Liza Loret Events in 2015, when I wanted to make a difference in the Wedding Industry. My first couple of years, I began to get momentum in how I wanted my business to be structured.

From the moment we started planning our wedding, Liza Loret Events was by our side every step of the way. Her monthly check-ins helped keep us on track and her attention to detail ensured our day went off without a hitch. Liz is an absolute professional, keeping the day running smoothly and handling any issues that arose behind the scenes so we could fully enjoy our celebration. My whole family and bridal party felt so taken care of and loved by her as well. Her hard work and expertise was worth every penny - we honestly couldn't have done it without her. Best vendor decision we made for our wedding was booking with Liza Loret Events. Liz is truly the best in the business, and we are so grateful for the incredible wedding she helped us create.

Throughout the planning process, I do my best to listen to your ideas and help bring forward the vision for your special day that you are trying to achieve with a flawless execution.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where to begin! Cylee was recommended to my husband and I through our amazing Dj at 3rd Shift Djs. She proved to be just as fantastic! We met with her regarding month-of planning services, and she definitely delivered. As a pretty spastic person that isn't the biggest fan of planning, I knew I needed someone that could keep me in line when it came to getting final details together and communicate with my vendors. Cylee came and proved why she is the best at her job! She kept us organized, was available via text, facetime, google meetings, etc whenever we needed something. Our wedding day went off without a hitch. I was completely unaware what time it was all day, able to stay in the moment because she was on top of everything and kept us on schedule. I cannot say enough wonderful things about her. She is one of the sweetest people you'll ever meet, she cares deeply about her job and the folks she works with, and she has a keen eye for the details. My husband and I had the best day ever, and Cylee is a huge reason why! If you're looking for someone to help make your day as magical as mine, she's exactly who you're looking for!!! We love her!

3rd Coast Live is an ensemble band based in Chicago, IL, that provides live music for weddings, rehearsal dinner, and corporate events. These talented team members can incorporate an array of instruments for your special day, including cello, violin, piano, guitar, harp, you name it! They will customize their set list to match your favorite genres, whether you prefer classic composers or instrumental renditions of Top 40 hits. 3rd Coast Live knows that each couple is different, and work to create a personal soundtrack that best reflects the newlywed’s unique connection.

It was absolutely wonderful having 3rd Coast Live play at our wedding. From our very first conversation, Kelly and Dorothy were communicative, responsive, and easy to work with, which took so much stress off our plate during planning. They really took the time to understand the vibe we were aiming for, and translated that into such a cool experience for us and our guests. We wanted songs from some of our favorite videogames (Skyrim, Oblivion, Assassin's Creed) worked into the ceremony, and they perfectly adapted those tracks to be played live before the ceremony. Several people mentioned it afterward as one of the most memorable touches of the day. Day-of coordination was completely seamless. They were locked in with our timeline, adjusted smoothly when small things shifted, and never once made us feel like we needed to manage them. Not only could they handle the classics, but they also have the skills to take something unconventional and make it feel elevated. I cannot recommend 3rd Coast Live enough.

Offered packages include comprehensive, customizable planning and day-of coordination for all your wedding needs from your bridal shower and bachelor and bachelorette parties to the big day and the day-after brunch. Whether you only recently got engaged and you're not quite sure where to begin, or you have a crystal-clear vision in mind and just need an extra set of eyes and hands to bring it all together, I Do Memorable Occasions has you covered.

Lauren was a dream to work with! I went into planning not even thinking about hiring a day of coordinator - but l am so glad I did! My venue recommended it and after doing some research I found I Do Memorable Occasions. Lauren listened to all of my requests and feedback, was extremely accommodating, and matched me with the perfect person. Christina was amazing and to any bride on the fence about getting a day of coordinator I say -DO IT! It was 100% worth the investment (which was reasonable compared to a lot of other vendors) and allowed me to enjoy my day while limiting the stress. I was able to be fully present and have a go to person for anything I needed on my big day and I fully contribute that to her! She even checked into our hotel for us and packed up all the decor into my car so that at the end of the night my new hubby and I could directly leave, allowing both our families to also enjoy every moment with us. When we got to the hotel we were welcomed with a gift and photos taken by our coordinator throughout the day which was so nice because we still haven't gotten anything back from our photographer yet! I am so so so glad that I decided to not only book a coordinator, but specifically I Do Memorable Occasions. Thank you for helping me bring my dreams to life and making the most important day of my life as low stress and perfect as can be! 3

What started out as a hobby, evolved into a great passion. With a camera on hand for every event, I spent my lunch money as a young kid developing films at the photo store. I became so fond of capturing as many organic moments as I can in photographs and fell in love with the idea of telling people's stories in images rather than words. I started venturing into professional photography right after my own wedding to my high school sweetheart, Erick, which was back in 2014. I LOVE everything wedding-related. My favorite to photographs are the wedding details, the bride and groom portraits and anything that will make me either cry or laugh!

Awarded Best of Zola
We are forever grateful we chose Michelle as our wedding day photographer. From the planning to the wedding day she was prepared & made everything so easy. Our engagement photos & wedding photos are perfect and she captured our story just the way we envisioned even including our perfect puppy Maui. She made sure to get all the important shots day of wedding & went above and beyond the entire day making sure my husband and I didn’t don’t forget any important photos. We received our entire wedding gallery so quickly after the wedding. Michelle is beyond professional and truly makes sure your wedding is photographed just the way you want.

I picked up my first camera at 9 years old, photographing my siblings and creating little photoshoots just for fun. After rediscovering photography post-COVID, I instantly felt that same joy and knew this was my dream. I photographed my first wedding two years ago and am now stepping into my first full season. My style is light and airy, blending documentary storytelling with true-to-life portraits, capturing both meaningful details and emotional moments.

Touch of Grace felt more than a professional wedding photographer. She felt like a friend throughout the whole process. We were very comfortable and she was very accommodating in every twist and turn that comes with a wedding. She even stayed extra time to capture our cake cutting! We gave her our images and she was able to quickly navigate between each one efficiently. What makes Touch of Grace so special is the final editing. We were taken back at the marvelous work and attention to detail. Thank you Grace for capturing our special day and giving us everlasting memories!

From our first conversation, Karl was clear about what he could offer and flexible when we needed to adjust our plans. During cocktail hour, his singing was a standout moment—our guests couldn't stop talking about how talented he is. He kept the energy high throughout the night while also helping our speeches flow naturally without any awkward transitions. Karl's combination of live vocals and DJ skills meant we didn't have to hire two separate people, and honestly, the value was unbeatable. We'd recommend him to any couple looking to get the best of both worlds.

Niko was absolutely great to work with! We did our engagement photos with him. We were able to go to the location we wanted, even though we had to hike to get to a few locations and he carried his gear with no complaint while making conversation. Our photos turned out amazing and I can not wait to see what we can capture at our wedding! Thank you so much Niko!!

  • Beauty professional
  • Starts at $1,000

I often tell people that when you get to do what you love, you never feel like you're actually working. I started my journey in Makeup Artistry in 2017 and since then I couldn't imagine doing anything else. My brides and other clients mean the world to me. I want to create an experience that is both personal, exciting, and FUN. It is an absolute honor to get to be a part of your wedding day and I look forward to working with you!

Kate was absolutely wonderful to work with for my wedding makeup! She is incredibly friendly, communicative, and professional, and made the entire process feel easy and stress-free from the start. She was so helpful during booking and checked in as we got closer to the wedding day, which I really appreciated. My trial went great, and Kate was very flexible when it came to a few tweaks I wanted for the wedding day. On the wedding day itself, Kate and her associate were both fantastic. My bridesmaids, MOG, and MOB absolutely loved both ladies - they helped everyone feel beautiful, confident, and comfortable throughout the morning. They also were timely arriving and kept on schedule with 12 women needing makeup services. Most importantly, my makeup looked amazing and lasted all day with only minimal touch-ups — through photos, dancing, and everything in between! I would highly recommend Kate to any bride looking for a talented, reliable, and genuinely kind makeup artist. Thank you, Kate!!!

Stems and Petals 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
  • Florist
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Bradley, IL

Stems and Petals is a floral design studio based in the suburbs of Chicago, creating fresh, natural, and modern floral designs for weddings, events, and community workshops. We believe flowers should feel effortless and expressive, and we love helping people bring their vision to life — whether it’s a dreamy wedding bouquet, a styled installation, or a fun bouquet bar. Every design is crafted with care, creativity, and a love for meaningful moments.

I truly cannot recommend Mackenzie enough! From the very beginning of wedding planning, she took my vision and Pinterest board and transformed it into a reality that exceeded every expectation I had. Every floral arrangement was absolutely breathtaking, and the attention to detail was beyond anything I could have imagined. Her talent and creativity are unmatched. Not only did she create all of the arrangements for our wedding, but she also has been a part of our Mother’s Day and bridal shower, creating works of art for those events as well. Beyond her incredible work as a florist, Mackenzie is one of the kindest and most professional people I've had the pleasure of working with. On our wedding day, she went so far beyond her role. She wasn't just there to set up flowers—she was there making sure we were taken care of every step of the way. She brought us water and drinks, grabbed my phone when I needed it, and helped with so many little things that made such a big difference. Having someone so thoughtful and genuinely invested in making our day perfect meant the world to us. I am incredibly grateful for everything Mackenzie did. She made our wedding day more beautiful, less stressful, and more special than I could have ever hoped for. I will continue to support her however I can, and she will always be my very first recommendation to anyone looking for an amazingly talented florist. Thank you, Mackenzie, for going above and beyond and helping make our dream wedding come to life! You’re the best!
