Tia’s team did an amazing job with mine and my girl’s makeup for my wedding day. Tia was always quick to respond and great at communicating. The reason for 4 stars is a communication error on the location of my trial. I had driven 30 minutes to the incorrect location that was emailed to me and had to drive another 30 minutes to the correct location. Obviously I was not penalized for being late and they did handle this very well by upgrading my makeup. Tia was quick to email me and apologize for the mistake. Overall would recommend and great experience.

My spouse and I had the literal wedding of our dreams. The Gardens were able to accommodate things we wanted, like family style dinner, long tables, great sound quality and an incredibly beautiful outdoor space. Getting married here was easy, the whole team communicated so quickly and respectfully. Being a queer couple, it was great to be in a space we could be fully ourselves. I don't think either of us could have anticipated anything better. The food was delicious, the venue was gorgeous, the people were great and the day was perfect.

Where to even begin with Brittany! First of all she is an amazing person through and through! On our wedding day 2/22/25 she was early and got right to work. She helped us out in ways we couldn't even imagine. She gave us pointers on our nephews fiasco of a suit, ensured it would work out and made it not a big deal. The entire process with Brittany was flawless, she guided us and somehow found our esthetic with the little knowledge we gave her! Her skills are unmatched and we will be considering her for any photos we need in the future! We are excited to see the photos, Brittany showed us some raw pictures on her camera and we were immediately hooked on what she was getting, just ask my now wife Alaina who has said at minimum 5 times a day, "ugh I can't wait to see the photos" "oh I know theses are going to be great" Thanks for everything Brittany! Update we received sneak peeks and are in absolute shock and awe. Brittany had a true talent for this all!

Awarded Best of Zola
We truly could not have asked for a better DJ experience for our wedding! From the very beginning, Alex made the entire planning process feel easy, organized, and completely stress-free. He was always responsive, helpful, and genuinely cared about making our day exactly what we wanted. Then came wedding day — and DJ Bob absolutely crushed it. He kept the energy high all night long and somehow always knew exactly what song to play next. Even during moments when the dance floor slowed down, he kept the vibe fun, upbeat, and entertaining so the party never felt awkward or dull. He also kept everyone laughing and made the whole night feel so natural and enjoyable. What impressed us even more was how professional and smooth everything was behind the scenes. There were a few technical difficulties during the night, and honestly, we never would have known if we hadn’t been told afterward. DJ Bob handled everything so calmly and seamlessly that the energy never dropped for a second. That level of professionalism made such a huge difference and kept the night running perfectly. One of the things we appreciated most was how much stress they took off our shoulders. We were able to relax and fully enjoy our wedding because we knew everything was in good hands. From keeping the timeline flowing smoothly to making sure our guests were having an amazing time, they went above and beyond.

Congratulations! How exciting that you are starting a new chapter! I’m Jordyne—not just your planner, coordinator, or designer but also your wedding advocate. From full-service planning to day-of coordination, I guide couples through every step with organization, creativity, and care. I handle vendor communication, timelines, and logistics so nothing is overlooked. My goal is simple: bring your vision to life while you stay fully present and enjoy every moment!

My wedding was June 11th and Jordyne being our Day of Coordinator was truly a huge part of why I can look back on the day with all the joy everyone hopes to experience. She maintained excellent communication in the months leading up to the big day via text and calls when I was stressed and spiraling. She asked insightful questions about aspects that I hadn’t even considered, so we had a clear idea of how the wedding day would unfold. Although we live about an hour away from West Bend, we picked our venue specifically for the beautiful outdoor cermony area. When it became clear that there would be thunderstorms and a high chance of tornadoes the day before and on the wedding day itself, she stepped up to transform the less than ideal (leaking) basement into what became a truly beautiful space. She used our leftover florals and battery powered candles to design new aisle decor since the original couldn’t be used indoors while also helping me not have a panic attack. She also suggested something that let us still spend some time outside, which ended up being the most special part of the day and gave us wonderful photos of our first look. From making sure we ate, to helping me to dance the Cupid Shuffle in my big dress after the bustle broke, She Was A Lifesaver. Jordyne and her lovely assisant were one of the best choices I made during the wedding planning process and I highly recommend her to anyone who feels overwhelmed, in over their head or just needs an excellent hype girl/wonderful person in their corner.

I cannot put into words just how instrumental Lauren and her team were to our wedding day. I truly do not think it would have been possible without her. In case you need convincing, here are the top 10 reasons why you should have hired LAR Photography for your wedding yesterday: 1) (the most obvious reason) She is a genius behind the camera. She has a true talent for finding the beauty in every moment and capturing it. 2) She has a knack for making getting your picture taken not feel awkward, something we were very afraid about as people who don't often find themselves in front of a camera. 3) She has a wonderful team of people behind her. Shout out to Jared and Ashley as our second shooter and day-of coordinator respectively! 4) She goes above and beyond to make sure the final product is perfect (ie: color correcting every picture for my beautiful, wonderful maid of honor who unfortunately ordered the wrong color dress). 5) She is an expert on all things weddings. Lauren was the one who answered most of our wedding questions throughout the year-long process. This was not limited to photography questions. She knows how weddings work and gave us invaluable information about our timeline, our rehearsal, coordinating with other vendors, and the logistics of set up and tear down. 6) With Lauren, we felt like we were her only clients. Whenever we had a question, Lauren answered. She truly spent hours with us on the phone during the planning process. 7) On the wedding day, she is not just a photographer. Her and her team took care of literally everything that went wrong. They handled decor that broke. They made sure everyone in the wedding party was taken care of. Lauren even bustled my dress on when my mom and I couldn't figure it out. 8) Lauren is dedicated to her craft and her client's vision. We tasked her with taking a group picture that included every guest at our wedding. Was she too short to do this? Yes. Did she stand on a chair to get the shot anyway? Also yes. 9) The sheer volume of pictures that we got back from our wedding is outstanding. We have hundreds. During our first look through, we saved pictures that really stood out as favorites. We ended up adding 121 pictures to that favorites album. 10) Lauren is just an amazing person. She is dependable, professional, dedicated, compassionate, flexible, and a powerhouse behind the camera. We are so glad we found her.

His professionalism and quick thinking made the whole situation feel seamless, and our guests didn't miss a beat. Nicholas delivered our ceremony with the perfect mix of warmth and humor, keeping things personal while staying articulate and composed.

We were blown away at the result. The flowers were unique and stunning and the centerpieces were simply elegant with a huge Wow! She even accommodated a last minute request that we had! Our wedding was perfect and magical in every way and huge part of that is Thanks to Grace! Everything far exceeded our expectations and was better than we even could have imagined. Everything was perfect! And not to mention, Grace has a wonderful presence, kindness, and calmness, and her energy was sooo appreciated. She even was there to straighten my train before I walked down the aisle! Grace was truly amazing! Thank you, Grace!!

As a small boy, I would sit for hours watching my mother hand-color portraits for a local photographer, during the cold winter months, by a fire in our family room. From there I began taking my own pictures with my first box camera. Fast forward to a restless twenty-something working as a microbiologist, taking weddings and portraits on weekends. Eventually I graduated college with an M.A. in Photography and started out in Chicago, assisting numerous photographers, shooting everything from oranges to weddings. I have been fortunate to have worked all over the world. Photography is more than a job, it’s an avocation, a passion, it's what I do.

We truly cannot reccomend him enough. He captured both our engagement and our wedding so beautifully, and every single photo feels like a genuine reflection of our love and the joy of those moments. Not only was his work stunning, but his turnaround time was incredibly fast, which made reliving everything even more special. He was also so kind, patient, and natural with our two girls, making them feel comfortable and included something that meant the world to us as parents. If you’re looking for someone who is talented, professional, and truly cares about the memories he’s preserving, he is absolutely the one. We will cherish these photos forever.

If there was an option to give more than 5 stars, The Valerie deserves it! I don't even know where to start - everything was even more perfect than we could have imagined. Picking a venue is a very tough, but important decision. I found myself googling The Valerie daily before finally biting the bullet on a venue that wasn't even built yet - but boy am I glad I did!!! This place is absolutely STUNNING. From the very beginning, I knew I wanted a classy and elegant vibe for my wedding and The Valerie matches that perfectly. From the gorgeous bridal suite, to the large light wall, the sparkly chandeliers, the aesthetic bars, the names of all the spaces, and the employees. Matty is such a joy to work with! From the initial conversation to the very last, he made sure that everything was perfect. He was extremely prompt in his responses via email, text, and call. Anything I needed, he was there to find the answer for me. He is AMAZING at what he does and we are so thankful! My ONE request was an espresso martini tower—and the second I said it, Matty didn’t hesitate. He just said, ‘Let’s do it!’ and made it happen. Jen was the MVP! We met Jen at our 90 day check in and immediately clicked and she offered to be our Wedding Coordinator from that point on - BEST DECISION EVER! She made everything go so smoothly, I didn't have to worry about a thing. Jen was also available at any time of the day to answer and questions or even offer suggestions! Half the time, I didn’t even know what I wanted—but Jen somehow took my scattered thoughts and turned them into something more beautiful than I could’ve imagined. I saw so many mixed opinions about hiring a wedding coordinator—so many people said we could just 'do it ourselves.' But looking back, I know without a doubt that our wedding was everything we dreamed of because of her! Mike, Jordan, and Madeline were the bartenders working the night of our wedding and they played one of the biggest roles of the night! All of our guests were raving about Mike's Brandy Old Fashions :) The three of them made sure all of the guests were taken care of in a timely manner and we are so appreciative of their service! For all the future brides out there - this is the BEST place to have the wedding of your dreams :)

We had the most gorgeous wedding at St. John’s Northwestern Academy! The chapel was an absolutely beautiful and intimate setting that made our ceremony feel so special. It comfortably accommodated our 150 guests, and we received so many compliments on the charming and historic atmosphere. The campus itself is incredibly scenic — from the classic architecture to the lush grounds — which made it a dream location for photos. Our photographers were thrilled with how photogenic the entire property was and had a great experience capturing every moment. We’re so grateful to have celebrated our day in such a timeless and elegant setting. Highly recommend for any couple looking for a unique, picture-perfect venue!
