Awarded Best of Zola
Our dance floor was never empty!!! Dj Wrek, Jason from Turntable manners was amazing! the whole process of planning our wedding reception with him as so easy and simple. The reception ran so smoothly because Jason was on the ball and once the dance floor was open it wasnt empty, he read the room, knew when to change to the next song and what was needed to keep it pumping. He also listened to our specific request for songs we had as must plays and the final song of the night was perfect and a core memory for us. We have gotten so many compliments about how great our wedding DJ was and how great the dancing was.

Our experience with Love Story Unions was fantastic. The officiant was fast, efficient, and incredibly respectful throughout the entire process. He is thoughtful, understanding, and budget-friendly, providing excellent value. When I was 35 minutes late due to traffic, the officiant patiently waited for me to arrive, not just sitting idly but actively checking for updates, and he even offered to help my wedding planner with any issues that came up, even translating for a vendor. Their communication was top-notch, and they contributed greatly to making our special day truly memorable.

Absolutely — here’s another version with the same voice and message, just reworded enough to feel fresh on a different site: You honestly can’t go wrong booking this company. I was pretty laid-back as a bride — except when it came to photography. After working as a bridal gown model, I knew exactly what I wanted and I was nervous about how the photos would turn out. George Street completely delivered. Their planning tools made the day feel organized before it even started. Both photographers arrived early, stayed on top of the timeline, and somehow managed to capture every important moment without being noticeable at all. I had a handful of creative, slightly “edgy” shots I was hoping for, and they brought them to life perfectly. One of my favorite parts is how easy it is to view everything afterward. We have access to every single photo, and being able to share the link with our friends and family has been such a fun way to relive the day together. I’m so happy with how everything turned out and would definitely recommend them to future brides

We used Eivan's for both engagement photos and our wedding and couldn't be happier. They are wonderful about asking for your input and making sure you are truly happy with what you are getting. The photographers and videographers are the perfect mixture of professional and casual/friendly so that you are comfortable. We loved Rachael H for engagement photos, and Heather G (photo) and Dmytro L (video) for our wedding. They also actually care about you and the event itself, starting with asking you about your story. We got both a photographer, videographer, and engagement photos for a great bundle price, which was so helpful. Customer service is also fantastic about answering questions thoroughly and quickly. After booking and after the events, they send you information about what to expect, etc. I did quite a but of research into photography companies, and I would highly highly recommend Eivan's!

Awarded Best of Zola
I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Windy City Glam. From the planning stages to the wedding day itself, everything felt thoughtful, organized, and deeply personal. Celeste and Alex were not only incredibly talented but also genuinely lovely to be around. And having Catherine who owns Windy City Glam and is also a close friend and one of my bridesmaids, made it feel all the more special. We got ready at the Hyatt House in West Loop, which isn’t the most spacious or salon-like spot for hair and makeup. But Celeste and Alex showed up early, fully prepared, and made the space work so seamlessly you’d think they set up there all the time. The room felt calm and happy, exactly what you want on a wedding morning. Celeste did makeup for me, my bridesmaids, and my mom. We had done a trial beforehand, and I gave quite a bit of feedback on what I liked and what didn’t feel quite like me. She took every note seriously, and on the wedding day, it all came together perfectly. The look felt just right, elevated, soft, with sparkly eyeshadow and still very much me. I felt beautiful without feeling overdone. The makeup lasted through every emotion, every hug, every photo, and hours of dancing. She also gave so much care to the rest of the bridal party. Everyone looked incredible and felt comfortable and confident, which set the tone for the whole day. Alex styled everyone’s hair, and she was just as amazing. At our trial, I had tighter waves than imagined, and I mentioned wanting something a little softer. On the day of, she adjusted the style to make the waves looser and added pearl accents that made it feel more romantic, and I loved it. It held beautifully all day and night through wind and nonstop dancing. My bridesmaids and mom also looked gorgeous, with styles that fit each person’s hair type and vibe. Alex was calm, focused, and incredibly efficient, but she never made anyone feel rushed. She cared about how everyone felt walking out of that chair. Catherine was a huge help behind the scenes with planning the schedule. She organized the timeline for hair and makeup so well that we stayed on track the entire morning without feeling on a timer. That kind of planning and attention to detail made the day run much more smoothly and let me enjoy the getting-ready part instead of stressing about timing. What made Windy City Glam stand out is how personal and supportive the whole experience felt. Celeste and Alex are true professionals, but they’re also kind people who bring such good energy into the room. They made me feel like the best version of myself on one of the most meaningful days of my life. If you’re considering Windy City Glam, do it. You’ll feel cared for, listened to, and completely at ease. I couldn’t be more grateful for them.

Pedro was absolutely incredible to work with. From start to finish, our engagement session experience exceeded every expectation. He was so communicative beforehand, which immediately put us at ease, and in person he was warm, personable, and genuinely fun to be around. My fiancé and I love taking photos, but we never really know how to pose — and Pedro directed us like a true expert. He made everything feel natural and effortless, and we felt completely comfortable the entire time. We shot at the Art Institute of Chicago, and he captured so many stunning moments. One of the most special parts: while chatting between photos, we casually mentioned that we loved “Paradise Lost” by Raqib Shaw. Before we even realized it, Pedro had taken us there and created the most breathtaking photos in front of it. That thoughtfulness meant so much to us. On top of everything, we received our gallery even sooner than the timeline he originally estimated. The photos are beyond beautiful — truly better than we could have imagined. 10/10. We couldn’t recommend Pedro more!

Nicky Avalo Studios is AMAZING. DJ Redd kept the dance floor filled all night long. I was one of the crazy brides who had a veryyyyy long must play list and he did a great job at playing the songs that kept people singing & dancing. From the very start, it was such an easy process!! Nicky was so so helpful. I filled out the document and everything I asked for was done. Before the wedding, I had actual nightmares about who would DJ my wedding (no idea why… just mustve been what I was most nervous for?! LOL) and WOW those nightmares were all wrong. DJ Redd is the best & even joined us on the dance floor! Seriously I cant say enough good things. I told Nicky about the nightmares I had & he went above & beyond & showed up to our wedding to say hey which just made it even more special. THANK YOU Nicky Avalo Studios for being everything we asked for & more. Attached pics of me & then DJ Redd doing the splits LOL

We absolutely loved our wedding experience with Chicago Winery. From day 1 they made us feel so welcome, and they were genuinely excited to host and share the day with us (shoutout to Amy!). Planning was so much easier since we did not have to go elsewhere for food or drinks (plus great wine), and the venue itself does not need a lot of extra decor to achieve the vibe you want. The location is also great for guests, since they're near lots of things to do and there are plenty of hotels within walking distance. Our guests absolutely loved the different spaces the venue provides; it was a huge plus to have the terrace remain open throughout the night, so that guests who wanted a break from dancing had another space to be in and mingle. All of the staff did an incredible job, and we received a lot of compliments on the food as well. As with any wedding day I'm sure, there were a couple little details that got missed, but only myself and my husband would have noticed. Overall we had an incredible wedding day, our friends and family had a blast, and Chicago Winery was absolutely the venue for us. Thank you to Amy, Chris, and all the staff for helping make this the most special day! - Kara & Chris Asmar, 06/07/25

I HIGHLY recommend using Flowers for Dreams for your wedding day florals and decor. I specifically worked with Rachael in their Chicago office, who was so kind and professional throughout the entire process (during which she was also planning her own wedding!!). I felt heard and understood when explaining our vision, and she was constantly inviting me to provide feedback on their proposed services, swiftly making changes even just a couple weeks out. When I saw the florals in-person my jaw dropped. They were drop-dead gorgeous and far more beautiful than I could have even imagined. Our floral budget wasn't very big, and Flowers for Dreams really made the most of what we could invest. We, and all of our guests, were blown away at the beauty and quality of the florals. Plus, I love knowing that a portion of our investment is benefiting nonprofits around Chicagoland – what a win-win. Flowers for Dreams made our wedding day florals a dream come true.

Walden was by far the best experience we had throughout the entire wedding planning process — starting from our very first tour. Having everything in one location and a full wedding planning service included in the venue cost was truly unmatched, and it was the only place we found in Chicago that offered this. Our wedding planners made the entire experience seamless and completely stress-free. We never once felt overwhelmed or rushed. They created a clear timeline, guided us every step of the way, and helped make our day absolutely perfect. Their recommendations for vendors in the city were invaluable, especially in a city as large and overwhelming as Chicago. One of the highlights of our entire wedding experience was getting to know our planners and having their support throughout the process. We will forever be grateful for their dedication, care, and effort. Shoutout to Briscel, Ally and Kalila. They went above and beyond to ensure our cultures were respected and honored. One side of our family came from Puerto Rico, and they made sure this was reflected beautifully — from Puerto Rican beer from the island to tropical cocktails that brought an island feel to our celebration. The food was phenomenal — we received countless compliments saying it was the best wedding food guests had ever had. Everything came out hot, cocktail hour appetizers were elevated, and the bar service was incredible with so many bartenders that no one ever had to wait for a drink. The staff was kind, organized, and attentive, and the entire day flowed seamlessly without a single hiccup. We could not imagine a better venue or team.

BW Studio+Events is a Chicago-based event coordination and planning group serving Chicagoland and surrounding suburbs. The Studio focuses on intimate weddings with unique flair and lots of personal touches. Blair founded BW Studio after hosting a number of non-profit events and finding herself completely immersed in the process. Once she realized her knack for event organization and planning, the studio was quickly born.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Blair was probably the best decision we made during the process of planning our wedding. My husband and I both work 9-5 corporate jobs, and we knew that we needed to bring someone onto our “wedding team” that would help keep us on track with all of the milestones during the wedding planning process. From the get-go, over our 15-month planning period, Blair was always transparent about timing and was a master of following up regarding timelines, without ever badgering us or coming across as controlling. She spent over an hour discussing budgets with us and our families early on, to make sure that everything we planned stayed in the budget range that we’d all agreed upon. This was especially helpful during our venue and vendor selection process. She helped us find that blew our socks off, and also found us the most wonderful florist (@thelocalpetaler) who was able to provide us way more bang for our buck than any florist we’d be able to find on our own - a huge advantage. While we had our venue already picked out, Blair was able to recommend a food and beverage package with an available catering company that fell delivered us fantastic food and a premium beverage package that fit our budget. 

Leading up to the wedding, Blair was also a master in helping us coordinate our wedding day planning including family photos, transportation e.g. coordinating our bus between multiple hotels and the venue while making it easy for us to just focus on ourselves. The peace of mind that Blair brought us throughout the planning process, week of, and day of our wedding made having our wedding a cakewalk rather than a headache. Spending the money to hire Blair was the best decision we could’ve made for our wedding!

Tricia is such a gem! From the makeup trial to my wedding day, she made me so comfortable and always listened to what I wanted. My wedding day hair and make up turned out so great and stayed in place all day (even through the 90 degree weather :')).

Jay & Nicole Vega decided to pursue a career together in the art of Photography. Met & married in Chicago in 2013, two people set out on a business venture of a lifetime. While Nicole is the main photographer of the company, we have also expanded and hired reliable, talented photographers to work along side with us, while still maintaining a small business feel.

Awarded Best of Zola
The Still Life Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Nicole was incredibly responsive, typically getting back to us within an hour whenever we had a question or concern. Her communication style was professional yet personable, making us feel at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of her work was truly above and beyond what we were expecting. Nicole listened intently to my concerns before and during the big day, and she expertly kept us on track the entire night. They say you get what you pay for and I definitely got my money's worth - the photos are stunning and I'm so grateful for their hard work. All around, it was an amazing experience working with The Still Life Photography and I would absolutely use them again in a heartbeat.

He worked well with our photographers which is always a good thing! He was extremely professional the entire day and captured all of our favorite moments. The video quality and editing turned out amazing! We were ecstatic with the results. We were provided with a short trailer only a week after our wedding. This made us even more excited for the cinematic film and raw footage. And those did not disappoint! Everyone we showed them to absolutely loved it!

Yvonne, the owner herself, and her team did a fantastic job with the mandap/chuppah design and decoration for our wedding. Her entire process is highly customer-oriented; she attends to all the details that matter to the couple and their family members, including design, budget, and execution.

It is our mission to showcase your individuality and capture the essence of your love in a personalized and heartfelt way.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Munaco Pictures to film our wedding and Tom was absolutely amazing! He never stopped from the first moment until the last, working hard to capture everything with his multiple cameras, a drone, and even a GoPro that he strapped to a champagne bottle for some awesome bottle-cam shots! He was also a pleasure to have around during the entire getting-ready process, as well as throughout the wedding ceremony and reception. He captured everything candidly and without us having to worry about a thing, but he also made sure to involve us directly in some of the epic drone dance floor shots and anything else that was extra special so that we wouldn’t miss out during all the wedding commotion. And his turnaround time was astounding! We received an awesome teaser video of our wedding in less than 24 hours! It was great to have that video so that we could immediately share our wedding highlights with our family and friends. And everyone loved it! We also appreciate him going above and beyond with the little details of our big day, like purchasing a white lapel mic to match the groom's uniform during the ceremony. That was truly the mark of a great videographer who cares about his clients! Thank you so much for everything, Tom! We can see now why you are one of the best in the biz! You certainly worked extremely hard and captured some amazing shots for us! We are truly happy to have had you as our videographer on our wedding day and we love having all of our special memories preserved so perfectly on video. Thank you again for a job well done! :)

Toast and Jam DJs 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,850
  • Serves Cicero, IL

Toast & Jam DJs specialize in making people dance by working closely with our clients to create customized playlists that reflect their tastes. We reject line dances, props, and other gimmicks in favor of perfectly planned and well-timed soundtracks that appeal to every partygoer. That means no Hokey Pokey and no Chicken Dance. At Toast & Jam, we believe that a thoughtful mix of pop favorites, hip-hop bootyshakers, Motown classics, and timeless standards are fun and self-respecting alternative to those embarrassing and played-out dancefloor clichés.

DJ Fredrick from Toast and Jam kept the dance floor bumping and flowing all night long. He was a great MC for all things and kept the party in line with our timeline. He went above and beyond ahead of the event to make sure the playlist fit perfectly for our wedding. He worked with us to add the Arab Wedding songs to keep all the aunties happy.

From the first call with Camille, I knew we were in the right hands! Despite the super tight timeframe we were working with (1 month), she took the time to really get to know us and our vision, support us along the way, and provide excellent guidance when we were unsure. Other planners we met with were nowhere near as personable, detail oriented, and engaged as Camille. She was so prepared, focused, and never lost sight of both the big picture of the day and how we were doing in the moment. We didn't have a bridal party, but having Camille there felt like having a best friend nearby to help with whatever I needed. She genuinely loves what she does and believes your wedding day should be the best day of your lives and she does everything in her power to make that come true.
