We could not have asked for a better photography and videography team for our wedding reception! Bayo was truly a mind reader — constantly in the right place at the right time and somehow captured every special moment without ever feeling staged or forced. Arlene worked quietly behind the scenes, capturing every emotional, joy-filled detail so naturally that it feels like we’re reliving the night every time we watch our video. Their professionalism, creativity, and teamwork made the entire experience effortless. We’ll cherish these memories forever!

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!

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

What is a Hybrid DJ? I asked the very same question. And boy were we glad we found out!! Imagine taking a fabulous DJ and adding a few instrumental pieces to enhance the party even more. That's what we did, and the dance floor was full the entire evening. Our super-awesome DJ, owner Al Okyne, along with his team of a drummer & saxophonist, helped make our son's wedding reception one everyone is still talking about. The saxophonist even played amongst the dancing guests, and everyone loved it. So do I recommend Okyne Entertainment Group...Absolutely!

I can't recommend Windy City Glam enough for their incredible service on my wedding day. Cat was extremely helpful throughout the entire booking and planning process. On the day itself, Ally, Jean, and Hung did an amazing job with hair and makeup for my entire bridal party. The team was talented, efficient, and brought such positive energy to the morning. All of my girls looked amazing, and I’ve never felt more beautiful in my life. I highly recommend doing a trial, especially if (like me) you have limited experience getting glammed up. It was so helpful to work with Ally and Jean to create a look that truly suited me. Pinterest is great for inspiration, but real-life results definitely require personalization! A lot of little things went wrong on my wedding day, but Windy City Glam was NOT one of them. The team absolutely exceeded my expectations.

The space itself is elegant without the high price tag, giving great value. On our big day, The Seville really came through for us. When some out-of-town guests couldn't make the rehearsal, Desire allowed us to cancel without penalty. She also helped with DJ equipment rental when our original rental fell through. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or coordinator for our special day. The Seville handled all the little details and last minute changes beautifully.

The food was excellent, the drinks were beautiful, and they even made sure to accommodate our guests' dietary restrictions with grace. The setup was exactly what we envisioned and the lighting was absolutely perfect for photos of our family and friends. Thank you for setting the bar so high for a venue; we can't wait to throw our first party as a couple together here in the future!

We had a BEAUTIFUL wedding at Silver Lake in early May 2026. When we toured the grounds a little over a year prior, in February 2025, we knew the same day that this would be our place. Not only is the setting beautiful, but we could tell from the beginning that our occasion mattered to Silver Lake staff. For something as meaningful as a wedding, you want to feel special. We felt supported and in good hands; that feeling was consistent throughout the planning process as I planned our wedding (without planner) and had many questions to ask Janene along the way. Amy was super hands-on for the day-of, making sure things went according to plan. She even made our rehearsal fun. Our guests all had a great time as well and have complimented us on the food service. I’d do it all over again, truly. Thank you Silver Lake!

Hairs 2 the Bride, LTD, in Arlington Heights, Illinois, will bring the salon to you on your wedding day. They create beautiful hair and makeup styling, offer facials, and do manicures and pedicures for a complete experience. With multiple licensed stylists available, Hairs 2 the Bride will work with groups of up to 50+ people.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Hairs 2 the Bride, LTD was such a smooth experience from start to finish. Michael, the owner, answered every question we had quickly and made it easy to stay in touch throughout the planning process. I opted to go with the Gold Package and I was so glad I did - while it was a haul out to the suburbs from downtown, I was able to have a trial to test run my wedding "high pony" and learn a little bit more about what I wanted on my additional makeup day. I ended up using my additional service day to do my hair and makeup on the Friday before our wedding, when we were actually getting married in the church and having our rehearsal dinner and welcome party. My hair and makeup was on point the entire day. My Hollywood waves held up and my face kept strong throughout all of the events. On the day of our wedding, their work was outstanding—our hair and makeup looked flawless and held up perfectly through the whole celebration. Everyone on our bridal party felt confident and beautiful, which is exactly what you want when you're getting ready. We were thrilled with every detail of their service and would absolutely recommend them to any couple looking for talented professionals who actually care about making you feel your best. I chose Hairs 2 the Bride originally because their prices didn't make me want to have a heart attack (they felt reasonable and fair), and they were a Veteran-owned business (my now husband is a Vet). I was a little bit anxious because while all the reviews were great, I didn't necessarily see hair or makeup that was exactly what I wanted on their socials. Safe to say trust is key - I trusted in the reviews and they delivered. I was beyond happy with all of my services and the services for my girls, and I couldn't recommend Hairs 2 the Bride more! Attached pictures reflect my Friday Hollywood waves slick back, and my makeup being done on Saturday where the stylist cut my hair on site to make sure my face frames hit exactly where I wanted them to.

We had our wedding at Moonflower, and it was amazing! We originally found Moonflower on Zola. Although we are from the area, we had never visited before, and the photos immediately caught our attention. The bar fit our vibe perfectly, and after visiting a few times, we knew it was the right place for us. We rented both spaces: the main bar upstairs and Nightshade, the speakeasy downstairs. Moonflower has a small stage in the main bar, which we used for our ceremony. The space already has so much character that it needed very little decorating. We brought small flower vases and an altar piece that the bride and her now mother in law made together. After the ceremony, we held cocktail hour and served food buffet style in the main bar. Later, everyone moved downstairs to Nightshade. Its lounge atmosphere and dance floor were perfect for our 50 to 60 guests. Some people relaxed around the cocktail tables while others danced, so everyone could enjoy the night in their own way. Moonflower’s event organizer, Morgan, was wonderful. She made the entire planning process feel easy and was a joy to work with. She helped turn our ideas into reality, assisting with day of logistics, décor, beverage packages, and every question that came up. She was always responsive and available. Morgan also helped us think through details that had not occurred to us, including coffee for our guests, explaining the parking situation, contacting nearby businesses about using their lots, and recommending DJs. We ultimately hired one of the DJs she suggested. Her extra support was incredibly helpful and took a great deal of stress out of planning. If you have not tried Moonflower’s drinks, you are missing out. Their regular cocktail menu is fantastic, and our experience was even more special because of a custom cocktail session with Zach. He created signature drink options for each of us based on our tastes and favorite cocktails. Every option was spectacular, and the final drinks felt personal and special. We chose Funeral Potatoes for the food. Since they already handle the food at Moonflower, we were able to try many dishes beforehand. Our guests raved about everything. We especially recommend the brussels sprouts, deviled eggs, and caprese sandwiches. Alexis, who heads up Funeral Potatoes, was also extremely helpful with selecting the menu. The only outside food we brought in was our wedding cake. The entire staff was phenomenal. Everyone treated the occasion with the perfect balance of care, professionalism, and fun. The night went off without a hitch and was truly one of the best nights of our lives. Moonflower was also extremely reasonable compared with other venues we considered in the city, especially with an open bar and food available on site. Street parking was plentiful, and none of our guests had trouble finding a spot. For anyone looking for a relaxed wedding for 50 to 60 people with a memorable lounge atmosphere, fantastic staff, buffet style food, and exceptional cocktails, Moonflower should be at the top of your list.

My husband and I will never stop recommending BW Studio Events!!!! Blair is an absolute pro! She has a fool-proof strategy for wedding planning, a wealth of wedding knowledge and connections with the highest quality vendors, and a stunning vision and ability to understand the vision of others! The peace of mind Blair's expertise and communication brought to our planning process was PRICELESS. We knew no detail would be missed, and we were confident that Blair could handle any challenge that might come our way, whether it was on the day of or during planning. Our wedding day was truly perfect, and the way the vision in my head came to life in our venue surpassed my expectations! Meanwhile, I had the most chill, beautiful morning getting ready for the wedding, and I have her assistant Elly to thank for it! She was absolutely spectacular. She was present every moment we needed her and blended into the background while sneakily helping, like steaming our dresses and setting up the gifts for my ladies without us even knowing. She was like our secret fairy godmother! And when I was getting ready to walk down the aisle and was feeling anxious, she was the most calm presence. She really helped me keep my composure. So so grateful for all she did for us! She made me feel so special :] Long story short, if you're wondering if hiring a wedding planner is worth it, I'm here to tell you THEY ARE WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY!!!

I absolutely loved my wedding at Elmcrest Banquets. Their team and staff were so lovely to work with. They had so many options for me to customize the dream wedding I was envisioning. They helped fill any gaps to make the venue completely transform. I would recommend Elmcrest to anyone looking for a venue in the Chicagoland area. The food was incredible, our cake was delicious, and the staff was so friendly and kind, always going above and beyond. Thank you to the whole team that made my day so magical.

From the very beginning, Daniel exceeded every expectation. Daniel was extremely organized and followed up immediately after every meeting, which gave us so much confidence throughout the planning process. As an interracial couple blending of our cultures was important to us and having a bilingual DJ and MC was a non negotiable. Daniel was the perfect fit. He was very fairly priced and offered everything we were looking for, including CO2 guns, a Photobooth with an attendant, and the ability to personalize the Photobooth experience for our guests — all of which ran incredibly smoothly. It was helpful to have all of these things through one single vendor rather than multiple people to coordinate. What truly set him apart was how intentional and thoughtful he was with our music. He helped us create a detailed plan that included songs we loved, songs we didn’t want played, and the exact timing for everything. Most importantly, he seamlessly blended both of our cultures throughout the night in a way that felt natural and effortless. Our dance floor was full the entire night. He also communicated directly with our wedding planners to ensure the timeline was perfect, which allowed the day to flow without a single hiccup. If you are looking for a DJ who is organized, professional, culturally aware, and knows how to keep the party going all night long, we could not recommend him more!!

Anna and her team were so amazing! She was so communicative every step of the way and helped me figure out songs when I couldn’t! All of my guests told me 10/10 the music they played just made the whole setting feel like a classy dream! It was my dream come true to walk down the aisle to violins and a cello and it definitely made people more emotional! Cocktail hour was amazing and so cool that they played some alternative songs as we are a kind of emo kids who just grew up and finally got married LOL 20/10 experience would absolutely recommend to everyone and would hire again!!

Booked a brunch-time slot for our baby shower and Kim, was more than accommodating. She was super helpful and very easy to work with! We had roughly 100 people there and although it was a little tight, we enjoyed the intimate feeling of the venue.

DJ Azul was amazing from start to finish! He did an incredible job blending both English and Spanish music, just like we hoped for. The playlist was super diverse, with everything from classics to new stuff, he kept the dance floor packed all night! One of our favorite parts of the night was our Emo hour—we had so much fun, and he really helped make it a unique, memorable moment for us. His crowd control was spot-on, always reading the room and keeping the energy high. He was also so easygoing and open to everything we asked for, from specific song choices to last-minute changes. Super friendly, professional, and just a joy to work with. We’re so happy we chose DJ Azul—he truly helped make our wedding unforgettable!
