Nancy was amazing and our vibes clicked immediately! She was always responsive and transparent. I did a trial with Nancy and walked away wanting her to do my wedding makeup.

The Voyaging Alchemist: Mobile Coffee and Cocktail Bar 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
Elmhurst, IL
  • Bar services & beverages

I began my work as a barista when I moved to Chicago from Florida for my BFA. I fell in love with the energy of the city and of my little shop. From drink design to customer service to simple conversations that left all involved with a grin. Sadly, that little shop closed and I decided to make the move from coffee to cocktails. I spent the next year working my way from bar back to main bartender. With my new title came new adventures in event coordination, and cocktail design. Which brings us to today, where I have the privilege of working with couples to create unique drinks that have their guests coming back for more.

We booked The Voyaging Alchemist to bartend our happily ever after wedding celebration and we couldn’t have been happier with their service! Laura was great at communicating and answering any and all questions we had. Prior to the event she learned what some of our favorite flavors and liquors were and created custom drinks for the night to celebrate as well as a sign for the bar, it was the talk of the night. Laura and Chris were our bartenders for the night and their energy and professionalism matched the event perfectly. They had fun and danced behind the bar, interacted with the guests, and came up with drinks on the fly for guests who wanted something special. They kept the bar area spotless and even organized the extra stuff for us at the end of the event. Our guests raved about our signature drinks (Laura’s creations) and we are now making them at home! I cannot say enough good things about this company. We will 100% use them for any bartending services in the future and highly recommend to anyone looking for beverage service!

Awarded Best of Zola
We came to Chicago for a small elopement, just the two of us — and hiring Svat was one of the best decisions we made. He made the whole experience feel so special and personal. From the start, he was super communicative and made sure he understood what we wanted. On the day of, he took us around downtown, showed us the most amazing spots, and made us feel completely at ease the whole time. It honestly felt more like hanging out with a friend than doing a photo shoot — and somehow, in the middle of all the fun and laughs, he captured the most beautiful, intimate photos we’ve ever had. If you’re planning an elopement or small wedding in Chicago, don’t even think twice. Book Svat — he gets it.

Working with Wedding Studio Pro was an absolute pleasure. Their communication style was open, fast, and professional from our very first interaction. The quality of their work was truly remarkable - the photos they captured are beautiful, detailed, creative, and artistic. They were patient with us throughout the planning process and maintained open communication, which helped make our special day even more special. The owner is clearly very passionate about his craft, and his dedication shone through in the exquisite, breathtaking photos that take us back to when my husband and I made our love official.
