Awarded Best of Zola
We booked Teyanna in 2022 for our August 2024 wedding and did not regret it one bit. It was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Teyanna was beyond accommodating and informative throughout the entire process. Her precise, creative, and professional "client-first" mentality shone through. From countless Zoom calls to meeting up in person to select flowers, it was more than we could have asked for and were expecting. Her professionalism and creativity showed through when we had to improvise our outdoor ceremony to an indoor one thanks to a horrific tropical storm. She called us on the morning of our wedding to ensure we were doing okay and went over every detail with both my husband and me to make sure she and her team didn't miss anything. We cannot wait to work with Teyanna again in the future.

Awarded Best of Zola
There truly aren’t enough words to express how grateful we are for Chelcie. From day one, she brought so much heart, warmth, and care—not just to her work, but to every interaction with us. It never felt like we were working with a vendor; it felt like we had a friend by our side, and that’s something we’ll always treasure. Chelcie came highly recommended, and now we understand exactly why. From our first call about the engagement shoot, her calm confidence and genuine passion for her craft stood out. She never overcomplicated things like so many others do—everything with her felt smooth and effortless. Choosing her as our photographer was truly one of the best decisions we made. From the engagement shoot to the wedding day, Chelcie consistently went above and beyond. She stayed true to her creative vision while embracing everything we hoped for. She listened, guided, reassured, and made us feel seen and supported through it all. On the wedding day, Chelcie (along with Sarah and Jeremy!) was a total rockstar. She came fully prepared, found the most beautiful locations, followed every request, and wasn’t afraid to try new things to get the perfect shot. She brought such a sense of calm and control—exactly what every bride needs. The 24 preview photos alone have us and our families raving. Chelcie captured exactly what I had dreamed of my whole life—even when I wasn’t sure how to put it into words. She just got it. We already can’t wait to see the full gallery (and to print hundreds of them!). Chelcie isn’t just an incredibly talented photographer—she’s someone who made our wedding feel even more magical. We’ll be forever grateful.

Which leaves you free to relax and enjoy the most important day of your lives.”

Awarded Best of Zola
We first met Exquisite Events & Floral Design and Bukky Garcia a year before our wedding at the Bridal Expo in Itasca, IL. Bukky’s booth immediately caught our attention—not just because of its elegant setup, but also because of the warmth and professionalism she exuded. From the moment we began speaking with her, it was clear she had a deep passion for what she does, paired with a level of expertise that made us feel instantly at ease. One of the first things that drew us to Bukky was her cultured approach and understanding. As fellow Nigerians, we bonded over our shared background, and this connection was pivotal for us. My wife and I had always envisioned a beautiful Nigerian-American wedding, but we weren’t quite sure how to blend the two cultures seamlessly. Being the first in our immediate families to host a formal wedding, we felt a bit overwhelmed with incorporating Nigerian traditions and customs into the day. Bukky, however, understood our vision right away and reassured us that she would help us create something truly special. While we had already started gathering a few essentials for the big day, Bukky and Exquisite Events & Floral Design stepped in and took it to a whole new level. From coordinating the logistics to fine-tuning every detail, Bukky handled it all with remarkable efficiency. She didn’t just come on board as a wedding planner and designer—she became the guiding force that brought our dream wedding to life. As a groom, I was completely blown away by her attention to detail, impeccable organization, and the way she communicated every step of the process. It wasn’t just about decorations or logistics; it was about her ability to take our ideas and elevate them beyond what we ever thought possible. Bukky shattered every expectation we had, turning our vision into something truly magical. Her expertise and dedication ensured that nothing was overlooked, and her cadence and poise throughout the planning process were second to none. The day of the wedding was nothing short of breathtaking. Bukky and her team transformed our venue in a way that left us and our guests speechless. Even the venue staff remarked that they had never seen their space look the way it did that day. It was as though she had taken a blank canvas and painted the most beautiful fairytale scene. Every arrangement, every detail, every touch was executed to perfection. But beyond her incredible work, Bukky gave us something even more meaningful—family. What started as a professional relationship quickly grew into something much deeper. She genuinely cared about us, not just as clients but as individuals. Even now, long after the wedding, we still check in with her from time to time because that bond remains strong. Looking back, we are beyond grateful to have had Bukky and Exquisite Events & Floral Design by our side for one of the most important days of our lives. She didn’t just help us plan a wedding; she created an experience we’ll cherish forever. If you’re looking for someone who can take your vision and make it a reality while surpassing your wildest expectations, look no further than Bukky Garcia. Our wedding was a dream come true, and we owe so much of that to her extraordinary talent and heart.

We specialize in documentary-style micro weddings and elopements, which means we focus on capturing your day as it naturally unfolds. Instead of staging or posing moments, we observe and photograph the real, unscripted emotions, connections, and intimate details that make your celebration unique. Our goal is to tell your love story authentically, preserving the genuine moments that reflect the true essence of your special day.

My husband and I were beyond impressed with our entire experience with Debra Aslanidis Photography. From start to finish Debra made my experience as a bride so smooth and stress-free. Wedding planning can be a stressful process, but Debra provided excellent communication about what to expect leading up to the wedding and the day of, so we felt very at ease the entire time. When I ran into an unrelated issue (a problem with another vendor), Debra reached out and sent me recommendations and offered support while I dealt with the situation. It was unbelievably kind and not at all expected, but it really made me feel cared for and I appreciated Debra going above and beyond for me! On the day of our wedding, Debra and her partner Jeremy were absolutely phenomenal. For one, they worked so perfectly together. We had guests complimenting how well they worked and coordinated together! I seriously can’t thank them enough for not only being amazing photographers, but also helping with other tasks that they voluntarily did. I seriously felt like they assumed the role of our wedding coordinators at times, since we didn’t have one, by providing suggestions and opinions since they’re the experienced ones when it comes to weddings! I couldn’t be more thankful for their confidence and comfortability in doing so! Finally, I am seriously blown away by the fact that we got our photos about a month after our wedding day! Debra has worked weddings, engagement shoots, and other photoshoots every single weekend and has a family, yet still managed to bust her butt to finish our photos, and it was the best surprise to get our photos back right before celebrating one month of marriage. I am so in love with our photos and have looked at them every single day, multiple times a day, since getting them back. Photos are the one thing you keep from your wedding day (besides your memories!), and I am absolutely in love with the final photos! The editing is beautiful, and I’m so happy we prioritized finding a photographer who emphasizes the behind-the-scenes and candid moments. I love that our pictures are 100% in the moment and capture the real, raw emotions of everyone! There were several detailed shots of our venue and decor and I love those just as much as I love the ones of me, my husband, our families, and our friends! They’re all so stunning!! Our photos made me laugh, cry, audibly say “awww,” and smile the biggest, cheesy grin. I absolutely believe your photographer is one of the most important vendors you choose for your wedding day, and I would 1000% recommend Debra Aslanidis Photography to everyone I know!!

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Awarded Best of Zola
I came across Mae’s work when looking for a photographer for engagement photos in Central Park, and I was immediately impressed with Mae and knew we were going to be incredibly happy with the results. Mae responded immediately to all my questions, day or night, and took the time to video chat with me at length twice before the shoot to discuss what we were looking for in our photos. Before the shoot, I had sent her a few examples of what I liked, and not only did the photos come out exactly how I wanted them, but were even more perfect than I envisioned. The engagement shoot itself was so much fun, and Mae made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process, despite us thinking we’d both feel awkward getting posed photos of us taken. Mae truly had a vision for what poses, locations, and lighting would work, and the execution was perfect. Some of the feedback we got from our friends was that the photos looked like a magazine, and that they were “ethereal.” Even better, Mae somehow got us the edited photos back within 24 hours of the shoot. Her pricing is also incredibly reasonable given the quality of her work, meticulousness, and experience in photography, as well as the very quick turnaround time. My fiance and I truly cannot recommend her enough, and we are excited to work with her again in the future. She is truly an artist, and any couple would be incredibly lucky to work with her!

It's a video i'll cherish for the rest of my life. I can't wait for our kids to be able to watch it. UGH, seriously hire this man and you won't regret it. Best wedding money we spent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?viVAKZzODr6E

Where do I even start? Jessica is probably hands down the easiest person we worked with on our wedding. We unintentionally scheduled our wedding on Mother's day and this was obviously an important day for her, but she worked with us anyway. She worked through our foolishness (my husband and I are incapable of being serious in most situations), and often would join in on the fun. She also provided a schedule of events which was incredibly helpful for me as I had no idea what I was doing. Jessica is an amazing photographer, but that is not really the best quality here. She is an amazing person all around and I highly recommend her!

We are absolutely thrilled with the experience we had with Angela Mallett as our wedding photographer! From the very first call to the final delivery of our photos, Angela demonstrated an extraordinary level of professionalism and creativity.

Caz Isaiah - Cinemotion

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $8,000
  • Serves Marissa, IL

Vogue-published and based in NYC, I create cinematic, editorial imagery that feels more like legacy than coverage. I work with only a rare few each year—couples who seek something deeper than documentation. From candlelit villas in Italy to black-tie weekends in New York, every story is crafted with style and soul. Signature collections begin at $8K, with most couples investing $10K–$20K. Multi-day destination weekends with full creative direction can reach $50K+, depending on travel and scope.

Awarded Best of Zola
After our first photographer fell through, we found Caz and luckily he happened to be available on our wedding date. From the very first contact, he was incredibly responsive (super important to us), friendly and professional. His work looked great so we were excited - then we found out he was featured in Vogue! We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful. Thank you Caz for giving us such beautiful memories so we can relive the best day of our lives.

Bloom Culture: Do-it-Yourself Wedding Flowers was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very first inquiry, their communication was prompt, kind, and professional. They answered all of my specific questions with personal responses, making the DIY flower process so easy and stress-free. The quality of their work was consistent, thorough, and truly showed how much they cared about making our day special. We saved so much money going the DIY route with Bloom Culture, and it allowed us to create so many wonderful memories putting the arrangements together with our wedding party. I highly recommend Bloom Culture to any couples looking for a reliable, affordable, and caring florist for their wedding. I wanted to do my own flowers to honor my grandmother who was a florist. She passed a few months before the wedding and I just know she would have absolutely loved it and we got to honor her in this way.

They’re lightweight, soft to the touch, and designed to look just like real flowers. One of the best parts? Since they’re made of wood, I can ship them to you no matter where you are in the U.S.! To get started on your custom quote, simply fill out the form with the website below.
