The Royal Sonesta was the first venue we toured out of about four different places in a day and as soon as we walked through we knew that this was where we wanted to have our wedding. The spaces for the ceremony/cocktail hour/reception were perfect for our wedding of about 75 people. All on the penthouse floor, the views from the different areas give you basically a 360 view of the river and the rest of downtown Chicago but that is just the cherry on top. The team at the hotel is top notch and we couldn't have done it without Lauren. They went above and beyond anything that we contracted, providing 5 star service to not just us but every single guest that we had staying there. If we ever had a question, Lauren was there to answer it in a timely manner, making accommodations and concessions that made our stay and event memorable. If you are looking for a venue to host any event, not just a wedding, we would highly suggest reaching out and seeing for yourself why this is the perfect location with the most amazing services.

She took her time during our trial to fully understand what I was looking for and made sure that the end result was satisfactory. She also went above and beyond past trial to make sure that I was still happy with the results and fully prepared for the big day. I also appreciated the extra steps to make sure that every single person was taken care of and not just the bride! i.elle made sure they understood what my bridesmaids/mothers expected ahead of time and this made for a very smooth process for everyone! I had in total 11 people that used their services and every single person was happy with their result. The i.elle crew was fun, easy to work with, and brought the best vibes to our morning.

We Only Do Pretty

  • Beauty professional
  • Starts at $90 per person
  • Serves Elmwood Park, IL

Eliora, Kristin and Lauren come to you with too many years of experience to count (it would give away our ages!) in the hair and makeup industry. All professionals trained with various backgrounds (from theater to photography), they came together because they had the same idea for a bridal team: talent, professionalism, customer service, get the job done ON TIME and leave with everyone smiling.

We had a great experience with We Only Do Pretty! We had them do hair and makeup for me (the bride), all the bridesmaids, MOB, MOG and the flower girl and everyone loved how their hair and makeup turned out. I prefer a more natural look and Eliora and Taylor did an amazing job with the very limited input I provided. I have been in several weddings and this was by far the most relaxed getting ready I've had and we were done early! Would definitely recommend We Only Do Pretty!

Suzette was AMAZING!! I am so so glad that I found her through Zola. The first time that we spoke on the phone we automatically clicked. I think we talked for like an hour almost. I explained my vision to Suzette and she delivered exactly what I was looking for! She delivered on my vision for my memory table, too. My wedding day was on dia de los muertos so we had an altar set up and Suzette helped to decorate it with marigolds and it was just so perfect. There were mistakes that I made on my end regarding table numbers and such and Suzette totally saved the day and made all of the table centers work perfectly. I would totally recommend Suzette to any bride! One last thing, I was a bride on a budget and didn't have a wedding coordinator or day-of planner but Suzette gave me some of the best advice and that was if you have good vendors you don't need a coordinator or planner. This is SO TRUE. My day went off without a hitch because of the amazing vendors that I used, which includes Suzette.

I was not prepared for that moment when I was walking down the aisle, with all of the people that I love staring back at me, and that beautiful skyline in the background. The inside is even more unique! We loved the artwork mixed in with the warehouse, and were able to get some great pictures beforehand with the bridal party inside the building.

I worked with LNF for over a year to plan my dream wedding. We knew we wanted to go a little unconventional from the standard type of venue and let me say it PAID OFF. From the planning perspective: I want to give all my kudos to Brianna from the events team for everything she did! She was in constant communication with me about everything from food selections to reception layout and was so kind throughout the entire process. She helped me feel empowered with the decisions we were making and helped with monthly touch bases to go over details to weekly once we got close to the wedding. She made sure I had everything I needed and helped make our vision come to life! From the venue/event perspective: Our guests are still raving about this wedding two weeks out. The family style entrees gave everyone more than enough food that was delicious and the bar staff was getting into the party with us as much as we were! Everyone was attended to in a timely manner and the entire staff played a huge role in making the night so welcoming and engaging. The layout worked perfectly for our group, too. The garden transformed into our dance floor that easily fit all of our guests together and the rooftop served as such a unique and beautiful setting for our ceremony. I truthfully don’t have enough positive things to say about the staff and the venue. Not to mention that the pricing for our event was all inclusive (bar, food, venue, DJ, decor, etc.) which made it super easy to keep track of everything and was also WAY more affordable than other venues within the area. Thank you, LNF, for the best experience I could’ve asked for going into my big day!

Communication with both was timely and efficient and they were super patient with all my questions! The space itself was stunning, guests are still commenting on it a month later! For us it was awesome to have an “outdoor wedding” that didn’t need a rain plan due to the cover on the ceremony space. You felt like you were outside with more of the comforts of an inside space, and the pictures turned out amazing with the natural light, tall ceilings and chandeliers! The indoor space is just as lovely and the night flowed beautifully thanks to the venue team!

Had the 5 hour lunch wedding package on 5/20/23. It was fabulous. Lisa was the wedding coordinator and offered the Emerald Room with high ceilings. Very light and airy. She set up everything beautifully. Lots of food. Cake was beautiful and delicious. Everything was perfect. The only thing that could have changed was cleanup started 15 minutes before event ended which caused some guests to leave slightly early. But overall a 10 out of 10. You will not be disappointed by selecting Villa Olivia. Also beautiful outdoor pictures at this facility.

West Films

I grew-up in Belém, the state of Pará, in Brazil. When I explain where Belém is, I always say it is next to the Amazon. I also say what a beautiful city it is. After Belém I moved to Rio, where I realized how much passion I have for photography. It wasn't until I came to Chicago that I could be myself and do what I love. I studied video before photography and started doing short films. Today, I am a photographer and videographer with a great heart, who wants to capture memories. This is the way I express myself. That is Izabella West -- happy and in love with the world!

One of the best decisions we made was to use Izabella and West Films to capture our wedding. She had done my sister's wedding a couple of years prior and my family loved her immediately and she did such an incredible job. Izabella is friendly, professional, and an extremely gifted videographer. She exceeded our wildest dreams and we cannot stop watching our wedding rehearsal dinner highlight videos on repeat :) Izabella and her team captured the most special moments and we couldn't be happier with the quality of the end products. Izabella worked in the background throughout our day but still felt like part of the family. Take this as your sign to connect with Izabella and West Films. You will not be disappointed!!

We can’t thank the team at Segnatore and California Clipper enough for all they did in hosting our wedding Rehearsal Dinner and Welcome Party. They made us feel right at home, were extremely accommodating with dietary restrictions, helped us set up various elements prior to the event and kept track of every detail we discussed in emails and prior meetings. The team there is exceptional and we highly recommend them for any future parties or wedding-related events.

I'm a type A planner with a type B laid back personality. Coffee & donuts are my love language. I'm sentimental and nostalgic of familiar memories, but love the adventure of exploring new places. If there's a word that I hope would describe me, it'd be genuine. I hope that seeps through everything that I do, and every image that I capture.

From the first moment we spoke with Melissa, we knew she was the right photographer for our wedding. She took the time to get to know us as a couple and our vision for our entire wedding to make sure she captured our special day perfectly. She handled my stress as the bride leading up to and on the day wonderfully by reassuring all was well. She made sure each special moment I relayed to her were pictured. She is the absolute best!

We provide floral and decor, custom lighting, specialty linen and unique displays from the smallest to the most lavish events. Wedding Day of Coordination as well as planning service are available.

We hired Ananda as our florist for our elopement in Chicago, and she was absolutely incredible. She created our bridal bouquet, tablescape florals, and a stunning greenery wall installation. The quality of the flowers was amazing—fresh, vibrant, and exactly what we had hoped for. From the beginning, Ananda worked closely with me to bring my vision to life. She really listened, offered thoughtful suggestions, and I genuinely trusted her expertise throughout the process. Her communication was always timely and professional, and she was easy to reach whenever I had a question. On the day of the wedding, everything came together flawlessly. We received so many compliments—especially on the bouquet—and every detail felt intentional and beautiful. I would wholeheartedly recommend Ananda to anyone looking for a florist who is creative, reliable, and truly cares about her work. I’m so grateful we had her as part of our day.
