  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Serves Girard, IL

My name is Samantha and I am the owner of SKH Photography. I take pride in showcasing my style on professional photography. I understand that everyone has an independent expression of who they are. My goal is to capture the unique quality and personality of every individual I photograph. Being able to capture who my clients are and the memories they are making is what I truly love about taking pictures. My passion for photography started in 2013 after I graduated high school. After that I started working with a local photographer who took me under her wing and helped me pursue my passion and I started my business in 2014.

Whether you're having an informal outdoor gathering, an extravagant formal affair, or anything in between, Callier's Catering has just the right package for you!

Callier's is outstanding! Due to Covid, my daughters wedding was changed 3 times -and we ended up having 50 guests for the reception in our backyard. Catherine and Abby were so kind and patient, helping us navigate through the details for each wedding change. When we decided to have the reception in our backyard, Catherine and Abby came to our house to look at our house setup to determine what they needed and talked me through all of the details. The reception dinner and backyard setup was beyond perfect! The food was absolutely delicious, and the table setup was beautiful. Catherine and Abby figured out all that we needed, ordered it for us, and set up the most beautiful dinner tables. They also setup a gorgeous champagne arrangement that awed the guests as they arrived. Everyone received appetizers, drink refills, salad and meals in a timely manner and the plating was gorgeous!! The staff was very attentive to our guests. Some of our guests told us they felt they were in a Hallmark movie! We cannot thank the Callier's staff, Catherine and Abby enough for everything they did to make our daughter's outdoor wedding a dream! Callier's provided outstanding personalized service, a friendly and attentive staff, truly delicious food and the dream team of Catherine and Abby to work with. I highly recommend Callier's and we cannot wait for them to cater our full out wedding reception that was postponed until next year!

  • Has onsite accommodations
  • Wheelchair accessible
  • Bridal suite on site

Venue considerations

  • Does not allow pets
  • Not for you if you prefer a more modern aesthetic
  • Venue feels large for events with small guest lists
Cedar Creek was above and beyond what we could have asked for in a venue. Our biggest priority when looking at venues was that all of our guests could stay on site, and that it was a beautiful venue with indoor/outdoor options for ceremony and reception. When we found Cedar Creek, we were instantly in love, and knew it was our venue. We could not have anticipated how hospitable they would be before and especially on our wedding weekend. Mark is an incredibly kind and generous property manager. He made quite a few accommodations for my husband's grandparents, drove them pretty much everywhere on the golf cart, and went above and beyond for all of our other guests. Sky is the best day of coordinator we could have asked for. She was calm, present, and very organized. She was able to keep me (an event manager myself) calm and unaware of any issues that were occurring. Our timeline ended up being off for the reception, and she came in with a plan for us, instead of asking what we wanted to do. I could not have gotten through the day without her! There are countless other moments where she was incredibly helpful, but that one stuck out the most to us. Chef Todd is an incredible chef. We cannot praise him enough, and got lots of compliments from our guests! He was accommodating for all of our dietary restrictions, makes incredible breakfasts as well, and overall did a fantastic job. All of the other staff that we encountered was also so hospitable and kind. If you are looking at getting married, we cannot recommend Cedar Creek enough. Your guests will love it, and so will you!

Hi beautiful couples!!! My name is Sara. I got into wedding florals after doing my own! I truly love the art of floral design. Weddings have always been my second language as I’ve worked in wedding catering and still currently work in engagement ring design! I’d love the opportunity to design your dream wedding florals.

SK Florals was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the moment we met with the owner, Sara, we knew we were in great hands. Her communication skills are top-notch - she was always quick to respond to our emails and calls, and was incredibly personable and friendly throughout the entire process. The quality of SK Florals' work was truly amazing. Sarah's flower choices were unique and beautiful, perfectly complementing the vision we had for our wedding day. On the morning of our wedding, Sarah herself hand-delivered my bridal bouquet while blasting "Going to the Chapel" - it was such a fun, memorable moment that set the tone for the entire day. We are so grateful to SK Florals for helping to make our wedding day dreams come true with their incredible service and floral artistry.

Emily Nicole Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,199
  • Serves Girard, IL

I’ve always been a romantic, a dreamer. From watching my favorite movie of all time (Titanic) to daydreaming about meeting Prince Charming in a trip across the sea (even if I have to travel back to the 18th century to meet a ruggedly handsome Scotsman *cough cough*- big Outlander fan here.). I’ve always been in love with love. Fortunately, I've been able to give all of my creative energy and love for the arts to my photography. I’ve been photographing people on one of the happiest days of their lives for nearly a decade now and I still can’t get enough.

Emily was AMAZING! I couldn’t have imagined our wedding day without her, she made our day such a breeze. Planning a wedding is so stressful, but our pictures were something I did not have to worry about. Her prep work reassured me she knew exactly what I wanted. Our pictures turned out incredible! Not only did she capture our day exactly how I imagined, having her by our side made me at ease. She kept to the timeline, she was efficient, and not to mention a blast to work with! I can’t say enough good things about Emily. If you are anything like me and worry yourself sick, book Emily because you will not worry one bit! She is such a breath of fresh air in the midst of a busy, chaotic day. And after it’s all said and done, you will end up with pictures of your wedding day that make you smile every time you glance at them! Couldn’t ask for anything more.

Dave Moore Photography

  • Photographer

  • Serves Girard, IL

Here’s a small confession: I’m not very comfortable in front of a camera. Oh I can take a decent self-portrait, but once someone else is taking my photo, everything falls apart: where do my arms go? Does my stance look normal? And oh no, was that smile natural? So if that happens to you when the camera comes out, no worries! I know how you feel.

Dave was fun to work with. My husband is usually very uncomfortable with getting his picture taken but Dave kept him at ease during our engagement shoot and on the wedding day. He was up for any suggestions but also had a lot of great unique ideas. I live in NY and Dave was flexible in scheduling the engagement shoots around mine and my husband’s travel plans. On the day of the wedding he instantly blended in with our family and friends which lead to amazing photos. I love my photos and highly recommend Dave Moore.

I'm Alyssa, and I'm so glad you found your way here. My love for the wedding industry began in 2021 when I had the privilege of planning my own wedding. From that experience, I discovered my passion for all the details—big and small—that make a wedding day truly special. Whether it's helping you choose the perfect venue, picking the best caterer, or working with a florist to bring your vision to life, I’m here for it all.

When I first started to plan our wedding I was not sure I needed a wedding coordinator but boy was I wrong! Having Lyss for our big day was a game changer. She handled so much- from helping keeping every timeline on track, to setting up decor, to steaming dresses and providing Bobby pins to bridesmaids, my niece ripped her dress and she pulls out a sewing kit and helps fix it, she even saved me with deodorant at one point throughout the day. Another thing I loved is that she took pictures behind the scenes so the next morning when I woke up I had pictures to look back on instead of waiting weeks for my photographers photos. She helped my family with clean up at the end of the night too. She never missed a beat and made it where myself and my family members weren’t running around completing tasks and could actually enjoy the day. She is professional, communicative, kind, and someone you can trust on one of the biggest days of your life. Would recommend her a million times!

I really enjoy being there to capture the most important day of people's lives. The reactions when I deliver their photos is priceless.

I cannot say enough words that would describe how thankful I am for Erik! From his welcoming and personable self while meeting at a bridal show, to our engagement session x 2, and our wedding day, Erik was nothing short of AMAZING! We took full advantage of Erik’s “no time limit” that he offers with his photography packages! Our wedding “prep” started the night before at our Welcome Party and continue through our New Year’s Eve wedding until 2am the following morning, and Erik was there for every moment! We also used Apex Studios for our videography, and the communication that Erik had with his 3 assistants ( 2 photo and 2 video) was phenomenal (my wedding planner commented on the communication, as well). Each and every detail that I could ever want is capture in a photo which I am so eternally grateful for! Thank you Erik for your welcoming, heartfelt, and kind self that made my wedding day more than I could have ever imagine!

Hey there! I'm Nikki. I have over nine years of event planning experience, including my own wedding in 2022. I am a coordinator with Trinity Griffin Events! My love languages are spreadsheets and fresh flowers. I've been known to cry at the first bite of really good food. The thing that excites me the most about this process is doing the heavy lifting so that you can be truly present for your once-in-a-lifetime moments.

Nikki was extremely professional, kind, thoughtful, smart, creative, helpful, and downright indispensable in the 2 months leading up to our wedding day. On the day itself, she handled so many details both big and small, ran unexpected errands, shared her water with me before I walked down the aisle, bustled me, kept another vendor in line, and just generally RULED. Thanks to her, I was able to stay grounded and focused during the planning phase, which significantly reduced my stress. Nikki has a natural talent for project management and is incredibly organized and caring. She was a critical member of our team and became a trusted friend. My husband and I told everyone that hiring her was the best investment we made for our wedding, and it’s true! We can’t recommend Nikki enough for your special day!

We had a double layer cake, plus 170 cake pops, and we only had a little over 100 show up. The cake was absolutely GORGEOUS. Me personally, I don't eat cake, but hers is amaing!

Hey hey! I'm Becca and I’m probably the most camera-shy person you’ll ever meet! I admit, becoming a photographer is an interesting choice for someone who isn’t good in front of the camera, but I believe this weakness is the exact reason why I’ve become a candid and authentic photographer. Since I would hate for anyone I work with to feel uncomfortable, I’ve perfected the art of making you forget all about the camera. You’ll get to know me on a personal level and working with me won’t feel like a business transaction – but rather like hanging out with a friend who happens to be really good at capturing you just the way you are.

Rebecca was INCREDIBLE! My husband and I get very uncomfortable in front of the camera. Cue Rebecca, photography angel. We booked engagement and wedding photos with her and we are ridiculously happy with all of our photos; they are natural yet stunning AND you can tell we are having fun. Rebecca also was 100% down for anything when our wedding plans changed last minute and rolled with the punches all day on our wedding day (late flowers, late bridesmaids, you name it!) which helped keep me calm and stress free the whole day. Hire her, hire her right this second!!

Photography is something I am passionate about because of the trials I have faced in my life. I am a self-made photographer + I love what I do with my whole heart and soul. When I was a senior in high school I lost two of my best friends. Now, any photo I have with those sweet friends are so sentimental to me. The bible verse James 4:14 says, “For you do not know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a Mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.” So live your life with purpose, laughter, follow your passions, and strive to love like Jesus each day, because your life is simply a mist in this world.

Rachael is so great to work with! She is personable, fun, and laidback. She kept the session fun and captured amazing shots. Her work is incredible! I highly recommend her!

My husband and I had the best time working with Lance! He had such creative ideas and really knew what he was doing. Everything was stunning, from the variety of shots to the editing and even to angles used. There was even a drone with a camera attached that captured breathtaking footage of not only our venues but also our first look! I was moved to tears while watching it. It was truly so incredible to work with such a talented videographer. We felt so blessed to have the opportunity to relive our wedding day while watching our video!
