I grew up in a pizzeria and honestly never thought I would be doing a food truck! I did sales for 20 years. I have always been a "foodie" and love to try new restaurants and entertain. I was at a point where I needed a change, so I decided to start a new chapter in my life. I am excited to be venturing out on this new journey.

I hired Kurbside Pizza for my kids' birthday party and it was a hit! Everyone raved about the pizzas and paninis, it was all so amazing. The family that runs it is the sweetest, the truck is super cute and Anna made the process so simple. Would hire them again in a heartbeat!

  • Photojournalistic style

My photography style is timeless, natural, light, and effortlessly real. My goal has always been to capture moments as they genuinely unfold — not forced or overly posed, but full of emotion and authenticity. From the very beginning of my wedding photography journey, I set out to tell honest love stories — the quiet glances, the joyful tears, the belly laughs, and all the in-between magic. The more experience I gain, the deeper my passion grows. Every wedding reminds me why I love what I do.

It was great quality work! Vita is very patient and collaborative. She understood my vision. The pictures turned out fantastic and I use them professionally as a realtor.

Rabbi Dina was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding ceremony. From our first conversation, Reb Dina was incredibly responsive, communicative, and friendly. We wanted elements of a traditional Jewish wedding ceremony without being overly religious and she took the time to understand our vision and tailored the ceremony to be truly special and personal for us. We received so many compliments from our guests on how special and full of love the ceremony was and what a wonderful job Reb Dina did. She was a delight to work with and really allowed us to customize the ceremony to be exactly what we were looking for. We highly recommend Reb Dina and her team for any couple looking for a flexible, personalized, and unforgettable wedding officiant!

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. You gave us a day full of joy, laughter, and cherished memories—we couldn’t have done it without you! With heartfelt thanks, Yulia & Andrew

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!

From the start, the team at Yes to I Do was quick to respond to all of our questions and requests. They were incredibly organized and detail-oriented, ensuring that every aspect of our ceremony and reception was carefully planned out. Rebecca in particular went above and beyond, helping us coordinate with all our vendors months in advance and providing helpful templates and suggestions to keep us organized. On the day of and during the rehearsal, the Yes to I Do team thought of every little detail, directing each person on how the ceremony would flow and regularly checking on my husband and I to make sure we had everything we needed - they even kept our goblets full! We were truly able to relax and enjoy our special day thanks to their attentive and considerate service. We highly recommend Yes to I Do for any couple planning their wedding in the Chicago area.

A decade in professional theater. Nine years as a fine art street photographer. Now I shoot weddings. The theater taught me comfort—how to help nervous couples relax and forget the camera. The street work trained my eye—finding extraordinary frames in ordinary moments, chasing light like it owes me money. The result: signature portraits that feel like paintings and a shoot that feels like hanging out with a friend. 300+ weddings. 151+ five-star reviews. A 10-photographer team. Zero cookie-cutter work. Camera-shy? Creative? Both? Let's talk.

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.

The Lovin Oven Cakery was a fantastic choice for our wedding cake and desserts. From the very beginning, their communication was quick, professional, and clear - making the process seamless. The quality of their work was truly exceptional, with beautifully detailed and personal designs. Our family has had cakes from them for years, and they were even able to deliver all the way to our wedding in Wisconsin. We've heard nothing but rave reviews from our guests, and some are even considering driving down just to try more of their delicious creations. Lovin Oven Cakery made our special day even sweeter!
