Awarded Best of Zola
When we hired JVaughn Photography we knew we were getting an amazing photographer but we had no idea we would be getting such an amazing person and friend out of it too! Justin is the absolute sweetest person we have had the honor of meeting and he has such a great eye to make our vision come to life! He made sure to have a meeting with us to get to know us and understand the vibe we wanted for our photos and he kept constant communication throughout the entire process to make sure all the bases were covered and he had a clear understanding of the timeframe and game plan. He was the one vendor we NEVER had to worry about. After he gave us our engagement photos, everyone knew he was the perfect photographer for us. Once the wedding day came, the entire bridal party and guests could not stop raving about how much they loved him! He gives clear direction on how to pose, what to do with your hands, how to fix your face, and knows how to use lighting. One of our biggest concerns when finding a photographer is having someone know how to use lighting because more often than not either I get lost in the light or my fiancé gets lost since our complexions are so far from each other. Thankfully Justin knew exactly how to make it all work out! He also stuck to the game plan and made sure none of those important shots are missed but he was also flexible enough to allow us to add in and change some of that game plan. I can honestly sit here and say that thanks to JVaughn Photography, our big day was absolutely perfect (even during covid). We already told him to get ready for our maternity photos, gender reveal, baby shower, and family portraits. I will forever recommend him to EVERYONE.

  • Officiant

Love Story Weddings is a national wedding officiant service based in Chicago, Illinois, led by Rev. Brad Hughes and his amazing team of ordained officiants. Together, they create unforgettable wedding experiences filled with life, love, and laughter. Your hand-selected officiant takes the time to truly get to know you—your style, personalities, and preferences—so that by the time they step in front of your guests, they feel like family. The result? A tailor-made, 30-minute ceremony crafted just for you two. Each ceremony beautifully weaves in your love story for a happy-tears experience that you and your guests will absolutely love!

Rev Brad was wonderful to work with. We inquired on his services two weeks before our wedding (long story) and was more than happy to officiate our wedding with such a short notice. His process on creating our “perfect love story” is very thorough and he really gets to know you as a couple. I was nervous on hiring an officiant that didn’t know us personally but he truly knocked it out of the park. We have gotten many compliments on our ceremony. He made it fun and memorable but not cheesy, as he would say.

We are beyond grateful to our incredible wedding planner for helping bring our Garden Summer Wedding to life on June 14, 2025. From start to finish, the planning process was smooth, collaborative, and truly enjoyable. Every detail reflected our personalities and vision—from the romantic florals of eucalyptus, hydrangeas, and roses with soft touches of purple, to the perfectly arranged tent and décor that made our backyard feel magical. Our planner worked seamlessly with us and our vendors to make the day unforgettable. From accommodating fun and unexpected elements like a white bounce house castle and a vintage plum crazy 1970 Dodge Challenger, to helping coordinate Andrew and his son’s surprise dirt bike entrance—nothing was ever too big or too small. Their professionalism and calm presence allowed us to relax and fully enjoy every moment. Thank you for turning our ideas into something even more beautiful than we imagined.

Reverend Dave did an incredible job officiating our wedding! He felt more like a friend of the family rather than an officiant we found online. From the beginning he met with me and my now husband to get to know us, learn our love story, and our overall style as a couple. This led to him helping us develop an amazing ceremony that centered around and highlighted our love story and what matters most to us including our love for each other, our family, and our friends. His sense of humor and banter with our bridal party was an added bonus that broke the ice with everyone and made for funny stories to tell! We got married on May 23rd, 2026. Dave coordinated so well with our DJ and our venue to put the ceremony on and make it run so smoothly. After our ceremony, we got SO many compliments about how beautiful the ceremony was and how they loved hearing our story and Reverend Dave’s style and delivery. We also got complimented on how smoothly it went with the schedule for the night and that was also thanks to Dave! He also made sure to take a selfie with us after the ceremony (pictured below) which is just another example of how fun he is to work with! We are so happy we went with Dave for our wedding ceremony and we are so grateful for all of the work he put in. We would absolutely recommend working with him to any couples getting married in the future!

I am a certified wedding planner with a passion for learning. It all started over 10 years ago when I worked as a birthday party host at a park district, eventually expanding to fundraising events, showers, and weddings. My passion for weddings and events grew, and I began helping friends and family with their weddings. Now, I run my own business! There is nothing I love more than seeing an idea come to life! When I'm not planning weddings, you'll find me cuddling with my baby, enjoying the show Friends under a cozy blanket, or sharing a meal with a glass (or two) of wine with my husband. I'd love to chat and learn more about you!

Hiring Rebecca as our day-of coordinator was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process! When my husband and I first began planning our wedding, we thought we could handle everything with help from our family. However, we quickly realized we were in over our heads and needed professional help. Enter Rebecca! From the start, it was clear Rebecca was just as excited to work with us as we were to work with her. She was always willing to jump on a call to ease my stress and keep me organized. Her thoughtful questions (many I would never have considered) helped ensure we were fully prepared. Rebecca also worked closely with our vendors to create a seamless timeline for the day. On the wedding day itself, Rebecca and her wonderful assistant, Donna, did everything possible to bring my vision to life. They alleviated so much stress for us not just on the big day but in the weeks leading up to it. From setup to tear down, they over-delivered on everything. Many of our friends and family even commented on how amazing they were! Reflecting on our wedding day, I am forever grateful we had the Yes to I Do team by our side. Rebecca is an absolute joy to work with, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and caring coordinator!

I have short curly hair and wasn't sure if I could find a hairstylist who could really work with my hair length. Thankfully, "I want to accentuate my natural curls" is a phrase Melissa loves hearing from brides. After the trial, I immediately fell in love with her idea of how to style my hair for my wedding.

From our first phone call, her professionalism and warmth shone through and as a diy bride, I felt so reassured and heard with all my worries and concerns! On wedding day, she truly grounded us and did everything to maintain the flow of the day, all we had to do was enjoy it! We can’t recommend her enough!

Hey there! Kataryna here. Thanks for checking out my work. I never thought that I would have the opportunity to meet you and everyone else that I have throughout my photography journey. I started photography in high school and fell in love with all that my camera and I could do. In my college years at the University of Iowa, I was able to strengthen my photography skills by taking an internship with a wedding company. Shortly after graduation, I moved back to the Chicago suburbs and began growing my business. A few years later, and I am extremely grateful for everything I have been able to accomplish. ​

Meraki Salon Services was a pleasure to work with for our wedding day beauty needs. They were quick to reply to our inquiries and easy to get in touch with, which made the planning process much smoother. On the day of, the quality of their work was great and the looks lasted beautifully throughout the entire event. They were also flexible in meeting us at our hotel to provide the services, which was incredibly convenient. We were able to treat our mothers to a hair and makeup moment and our bridal party loved the results and not having to worry about their looks for the day. Everyone felt beautiful and confident. While the final looks were still stunning, we felt they didn't fully understand our vision - the bridal hair trial didn't fully translate, and the bridal makeup ended up more neutral than the requested pinky/peach tones with less dramatic eye makeup than planned. Overall though, it was a great value and we were happy with how everything turned out.

Lovin Oven Cakery 
Rating: 5.0 (7 reviews)
  • Cakes & desserts
  • Serves Huntley, IL

Since 1930, our family has been baking quality products for dessert lovers like you. Our story begins with my father-in-law, John Slove, being hired to work as an apprentice in a Chicago bakery. While there he learned everything there is to know about baking. Then, in 1946, he and my mother-in-law, Grace, opened their own bakery on Diversey Avenue in Chicago – Slove Bakery. Their goal was to produce great quality desserts and provide excellent customer service: he did the baking; she the handshaking. Through hard work and determination, they grew the business and the bakery’s reputation as one of the finest in the Chicagoland area.

Lovin Oven Cakery was a pleasure to work with for our wedding. Their communication was professional, timely, and thorough throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly exceptional - the cake they delivered was not only beautiful, but also incredibly delicious. Their attention to detail and artistic approach resulted in a cake that was the centerpiece of our special day. We couldn't have been happier with Lovin Oven Cakery and highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.
