We heard about Besher Events through a friend of a friend and it was the best decision we could’ve possibly made throughout wedding planning! Kristin immediately started suggesting and contacting vendors, and helping come up with the theme/design for the whole wedding. We gave her general ideas and lots of pictures off Pinterest and she made it all come to life. She truly put so much effort into making our day perfect (she even made the sun come out!!) and if anything went wrong we didn’t even notice. Not only is Kristin an amazing wedding planner, but she was also an amazing friend to lean on for the entire 1.5 years of planning.

I started coordinating/event planning in 2017 by creating, managing, and executing my own nurses brunch which started as a 12 person event and now has grown to hosting over 150 attendees annually. Over the last 3 years I've had the pleasure to plan, coordinate, and execute multiple weddings. What started as a personal hobby has transitioned into a business, and it has been a pleasure to be able to serve couples on their big day. My flat rate fee of $900 bundles all the needs of the couple from start to finish.

I have worked alongside Kylie in a few different event planning capacities, and her attention to detail and vision for flawlessly executing and coordinating celebrations is excellent! Kylie has years of experience coordinating within the realm of non-profits; including fundraising events, a yearly brunch for nurses, and volunteer appreciation dinners. In addition to this, Kylie has executed the coordination of several weddings. I would highly recommend using Kylie as your event coordinator. She will always bring the fun, energy and attention to beauty that every event deserves.

Our engagement photo shoot was fun and easy, and even better the photos turned out amazing. She makes sure to get the pictures parents will want and then makes sure there’s time for photos that really show our character. Prior to our wedding, she was helping to keep us on track with any tasks and she helped answer any questions we had along the way. Day of, she kept us calm and having fun with the photos. Emma is this great balance of buttoned up and professional and easy going so you never feel stressed. We got our first look gallery back just two days after our wedding and WOW.

Owner and operator Amanda is a talented individual that takes great joy in serving couples as they celebrate life’s precious milestones. With a focus on exceptional customer experience, Amanda and her team look forward to bringing your dream wedding to life.

Hiring Amanda and her team to coordinate our wedding was one of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding! As a type A (anxious) person I needed someone to reassure me we were on track. The interval check-ins were so helpful and APE's organization the day of helped me to relax and let someone else handle the details so I could enjoy the day. We had a few minor issues the day of, some of which we didn't even know about because APE handle them before we even found out about them. As an example, when we realized our vendor didn't deliver whiskey, Amanda went out and purchased and delivered whiskey within 15 minutes. They were also so helpful in corralling family/friends and telling them what to do so we didn't have to. They kept us on track during a busy day, but also let us know that it was our day and we could take time where we wanted it. Can't recommend enough if you are looking for a highly organized and knowledgable coordinator!

Lindsey’s Ice Cream serves up small-batch, Asian-American ice cream flavors with a nostalgic twist. From cozy backyard vows to modern downtown receptions, we’re all about adding that extra sprinkle of fun.

My partner and I were craving black sesame ice cream that we ate when we traveled to Japan. We also got engaged there (yay!) so it was really meaningful to us. We were surprised when we found out that she can make custom ice cream flavors and we were STUNNED when the black sesame ice cream tasted just like the one we had in Japan. It added a lot of personality to our wedding that we otherwise wouldn’t have had with a more generic flavor. I have friends still talking about the ice cream, asking where they can buy more. I didn’t know what to except with Lindsey’s Ice Cream but my partner and I are now huge fans. Incredible service, super friendly, and added that whimsical charm (I mean who doesn’t like ice cream) to our special day. I’m not even the reviewing type but I had to let people know about this. If you want awesome, unique ice cream flavors or even your own custom made one, check her out!

I started DJ' ing as a kid with old fashion turntables and records about 30 years ago preforming at various dances, parties and events. I became a police officer 20 years ago but just couldn't give up my passion for DJ'ing , so I started up my own DJ company in 2010 and currently "patrol the streets by day and DJ by night" so to speak. Because I have a stable income source, I don't DJ just to make money , and its "not just a job to me". It's my passion! As a result, your event gets 110% of all my effort and attention because I love what I do and care that my clients are always satisfied.

Five-O DJ/Tom was the BEST!!! I reached out for quotes for our wedding and he was so responsive, detailed, and helpful. Once we started working together, it was clear that he was a very experienced DJ and a true professional. He also helped us with SO many ceremony planning items. I was considering hiring a Day of Coordinator, and I totally did not need one because Tom handled everything perfectly. Five-O DJ did our ceremony music as well as cocktail hour and the full reception, and I honestly expected to pay a lot more considering how many services he provided! I wanted our cocktail and dinner hours to sound like a live mariachi band was there, and he made it happen. His commentary was fun and set a great tone for the reception. He kept everyone in the wedding party organized and on time for all of the events and speeches. We even received customized remixes of our entrance songs so that the timing of everything flowed beautifully! We will definitely be hiring Five-O DJ again for future parties and events! I highly recommend.

I loved my wedding, it was everything I could've wanted out of the venue. I had My ceremony (outside) & reception (inside) and it was such a wonderful time! I did the family-style menu and all the food was delicious. The reception area in the all seasons room was beautiful with the light globe. The bartenders and servers were very attentive and polite. All of our guests loved the food, the chocolate fountain, and of course the late-night bowling!! The communication with the venue was my main pain point as I was appointed multiple sales managers as it seemed like they were going through a management change. I thought it was odd that I talked with the sales manager for all of my communication regarding the wedding up until the day of I was assigned an event manager who I met 1 hour before my ceremony. The sales manager was still on property the day of but I thought it was weird I didn't receive any information that I would be working with someone else the day of. I highly recommend this venue if you're looking for a beautiful and fun place to get married!!

We had the pleasure and privilege of working with Fabiola, Lisa, and Jill as our event managers at the Marriott Chicago Southwest at Burr Ridge for our wedding weekend in April 2025. Throughout the planning process (January 2024 - April 2025), we probably had more than 100 questions varying in detail, and Fabiola / Lisa consistently answered our questions holistically with patience and grace. The staff is very knowledgeable and experienced with hosting Indian weddings successfully, which made the planning even easier. When the time came, Marriott worked seamlessly with all of our vendors and shielded us from logistics that we didn't need to get involved with. This took a huge load off of our shoulders, and gave us the space to prepare for our big day. Beyond helping perfect the details of the actual wedding events, Marriott was very helpful and responsive with helping us manage our hotel guest room block. Whether we needed an ad-hoc report of our currently booked rooms and/or a quick turn-around of adding more rooms to the block, they were always quick and happy to help. We would truly use the word "perfect" to describe how the weekend came together and it would not have been possible without all of the help, support and guidance from the Marriott staff. Thank you so much, we will always be grateful! We would 100% recommend the Marriott at Burr Ridge for any of your events, you will be in fantastic hands!

He even took note what songs we wanted to avoid and he made sure not to play them. On the big day, John was amazing. His charisma and energy were infectious. He read the room and played exactly what the crowd needed over the course of the night. From the cocktail hour to the last song, the music was spot-on. He perfectly balanced the mood, starting with more relaxed tunes and gradually building to a high-energy party that had everyone dancing until the very end. John interacted with the crowd, hyped people up, and created an amazing atmosphere. He had great transitions and timing for announcements. We didn’t worry about a thing during the reception, he took care of keeping track of the timeline of events and made everything stress-free so we really could just enjoy. We and our guests had an incredible time dancing the night away. It was exactly what we wanted. John went above and beyond to make our wedding day special, and we’ll be forever grateful for the memories he helped us create. We could not recommend him enough, he knows how to throw an unforgettable party.

We never take lightly the incredibly humbling role which our clients entrust us to. It is our job to not only document once-in-a-lifetime moments and emotions but to do so in an artful, romantic and documentary manner. We are passionate about storytelling through images that elicit an emotional response, using both film and digital mediums. Our style is unobtrusive which allows us to capture fleeting moments of joy, love, and tenderness with intentionality.

Lynzie was the first person I called after I got engaged! I had been following (okay, stalking) her work on instagram for a while and I knew she would be the perfect fit to capture the romance and soft and airy look that I wanted for my wedding! Lucky for me, she was available and willing to fly to France for my destination wedding! The whole experience with Lynzie and her team was flawless. She worked so well with my wedding planner and made sure we would have enough time to take photos in all the locations I wanted. I loved our engagement photos so much that I hired Lynzie to also photograph my welcome dinner for our international guests in Paris prior to the wedding day! Apparently I'm not the only one who was OBSESSED with how beautifully the images turned out because our wedding was published in THREE magazines, including the front page of Style Me Pretty! I couldn't be happier with Bonphotage. It doesn't get better than Lynzie - she is a true artist who will deliver and more!

Astoria Banquets and Events Venue was an ABSOLUTE DREAM to work with for our wedding. All through the planning process, their communication was incredibly responsive, reassuring, and detailed. The venue itself is truly glamorous and elegant, yet versatile enough to suit any couple's style. The bartenders, wait staff, and coordinators provided incredible service, ensuring we didn't have to worry about a single thing on our special day. In fact, Max at Astoria was better than any wedding planner we could have hired. For brides with a desire for minimal planning and a tight budget, we highly recommend considering Astoria, especially if booking in the off-season or on a Friday or Sunday. We got married at Astoria on a Sunday in February, and the price per person was a steal, especially since the venue included everything we needed aside from a DJ and photographer. Overall, Astoria Banquets and Events Venue provided us with the most beautiful wedding, all while keeping us well under budget. We are so grateful for their outstanding service and beautiful venue!!

I had the honor of coordinating Deanna and Andrew's wedding at The Glen Club, and I couldn’t be more impressed by the entire experience. The venue is gorgeous, offering the perfect setting for a romantic celebration. What made this experience even better was how fantastic the team at The Glen Club is to work with.
