Allison was beyond amazing and made all my dreams come to life for our wedding. I am NOT the best at planning big events so my wedding brought a lot of anxiety about making sure every detail was perfect for our big Serbian American wedding. Not only did Allison bring me comfort and eased my anxieties but she made sure my ideas came to life and that all the details fit my vision. Our wedding would not have been what it was without her. She made sure that the day went by without any bumps in the road and when I walked into the venue I shed a few tears because it was more beautiful than I could have imagined. Forever grateful for her!

Sydney Elise Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,450
  • Serves Merrillville, IN

A photographer based out of Northwest Indiana and the Chicagoland area. Growing up, I always had a passion for capturing and editing photos. Taking photographs is more than a profession. It’s a true lifelong passion. I love to capture genuine moments, and weave together a narrative through these photographs. The key to these special moments is to capture what is most true and treasured, and to showcase them in a timeless and authentic way.

I'm a firm believer that things happen for a reason and finding Sydney has proven this! Before talking to her, we fell in love with her creative art style and knew I had to reach out! Sydney made us feel so comfortable and understood exactly what we wanted from day one. Very professional, helpful, open minded and always quick to respond with any questions or concerns. I can honestly say that our wedding day would not have been the same without her, and for that we are forever grateful!

We called, talked and knew that's our band. Communication (phone/email) was easy. Our party was in a cul-de-sac. We provided canapes, a garage and power. They set up everything else. It was already fun to listen to the soundcheck. About 120 guests were all over the cul-de-sac and the band totally adapted to everything that happened. Their male singer was not at our party but their female singer was absolutely amazing!!!! Whenever we talk about the party, EVERYONE says that the band was so GREAT!! We hope to hear/see them again. If we ever need a band again: THAT'S THE BAND for sure.

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,250
  • Serves Merrillville, IN

For owner Mike Yazumbek, DJing is fun and games, but it’s also a lifestyle he has lived and breathed for the past 13 years. Mike got his interest in DJing at age 20 and started out playing friends house parties, then eventually building up a reputation and DJing a the biggest nightclubs in the Chicagoland Area. Pretty Soon, a lot of his friends were getting married and Mike was the first person they thought of. After Djing hundreds of clubs, bars, school dances, private parties and weddings under his freelance name "DJ Mike Y" It was time to finally brand a mobile entertainment company - Reception Entertainment !

Mike did an awesome job at our wedding!! From the start he proved that he would be the one running the wedding, making sure everything ran smoothly. He made sure we stayed on our timeline and made sure photographers were around for cake cutting, first dances, etc. When it came to music, we got nothing but great reviews from our guests! The dance floor wasn’t empty all night! Highly recommend!

Sarcasm & Sunshine Designs Flower Preservation 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Merrillville, IN

Sarcasm & Sunshine Designs is comprised of two friends, turned business partners. We worked together for several years planning events and weddings, so we have a shared love of sparkle, flowers, coffee, and making beautiful memories! We couldn't think of a better way to celebrate our growth as friends, mothers and confidants, than to combine our creativity and passions to create one of a kind items to brighten the days and lives of others. Our business, our products, and our partnership is all about balance, Contessa is the Sarcasm, Danielle is the Sunshine. Some days, we switch roles, but we think life is better with both!

Having my wedding flowers preserved was extremely important to me. To be able to keep something perfectly preserved that was so beautiful on my special day is unreal. Danielle is the kindest and easiest person to work with. She gets back to you within seconds and listens to any and every crazy request I had. Along with a tray, wine stopper, ornament, and book mark, Danielle was able to take part of my Mother’s wedding dress (that was wrapped around my bouquet) and preserve it in a jewelry box with my flowers. Let me tell you, the reaction my mom had on her face when I gave her that jewelry box was indescribable. If you are ever second guessing preserving your wedding flowers, this is your sign to do it. You won’t regret it! Sarcasm and Sunshine’s work is impeccable and I hope that others are able to have their flowers preserved with such care and precision as I was able to have mine.

Alison did an exceptional job as the day of coordinator for my wedding! She was an excellent communicator, ia extremely organized in a way my mostly type-A brain needed, helped me work through things I hadn't even thought of leading up to the big day, and was instrumental in making our wedding and reception a smooth, seamless process. At least, it seemed like that to me I had nothing to worry or stress about the day of, and I have to give her credit for that! My biggest regret is not having found her sooner, because I would've loved her assistance in planning our wedding and helping with travel arrangements for our out of town guests. Thanks again Alison, you were an integral part in our big day!
