We used Jared/ Right on Q entertainment for our wedding on 1/15/22. The whole process with him was smooth sailing. He was available for questions at any point in time and was always prompt in responding! He is VERY knowledgeable and was able to assist in creating our reception timeline as well. He was so easy to work with and always made us feel like we had nothing to worry about. The day of he was very professional with all guests and people never left the dance floor. He was very good at reading a crowd. He even listened to my Maid of honor's speech and played a song she mentioned that we didn't even originally request which we thought was a great touch! He truly cares about what he does and the people he works with! My only complaint would be that I don't have a reason to work with him again! Anyone that chooses him for their event will be well taken care of and we highly recommend him to anyone!

Welcome! Amber here! Amber Waves Bridal's owner. For years I have worked behind the chair and never branched out to outside venues, then, I moved 1/2 way across the state and figured "what better time to try something new?" I have always had a passion for making women feel beautiful and when better to do it then on their wedding day? I still work behind the chair but on the weekends you can find me traveling all over central Illinois working on-site weddings. I wouldn't trade my job for the world!

Dana Bell Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,400
  • Serves Normal, IL

As a photographer for over 7 years based in Bloomington, IL and Chicago, my goal is to take photos that feel like a memory but styled like art. If you're the kind of couple who wants those raw feelings captured in your wedding photos, but you don't want to have to think about what to do or how to do it - you want the memories captured with an artistic twist, or you just have no clue to do with your hands - LET'S TALK!

If we had to plan our wedding all over again, booking Dana would be the first thing that we did! Our photographs are stunning, and she did such an amazing job capturing all the special little moments of the day. We had two toddlers as our ring bearers, and she did a great job getting photos of them in a fun way. Just as important as the photos was the attitude that Dana brought to the day. She was focused, professional, but most of all fun! She was a very easy person to be around, and everyone felt relaxed, which made the photos so much better. I am not a person that takes a ton of pictures, and she did a great job helping us bring our vision to life in a way that was fun and comfortable! I would highly highly recommend her to any other couples. (Our wedding was in May 2025)

I aim to present my work in a way that is 100% timeless and authentic. When you look back at your images, I want it to bring back "all the feels". I want my images to represent you just the way you are, nothing overly edited or changed. My hope is that you will be able to cherish these images for many years to come.

I so wish I could give Chelsea a 100 stars!! She has been phenomenal for the last year, when we first inquired about hiring her for our wedding. Our engagement photos were exactly what I was hoping for and OH MY GOSH I cannot even put into words how wonderful she was on our wedding day. Between her professionalism, attention to detail, and timing — it could not have gone more perfect! We plan to book Chelsea for every big event in our lives.

Sara Gardner Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Normal, IL

My goal is very simple; document what's happening. All of it. The little smiles, small embraces, big laughs, quiet tears, fingers intertwined, subtle glances, and first steps. None of these things will ever happen the way they happened today. I believe there should be proof that you laughed at that joke, said those vows, kissed that cheek, and cried those tears. And it should be captured in a way that is beautiful and full of feeling.

Please consider Sara as your photographer for your wedding day. Sara is professional but can also make you feel so comfortable and at ease that you forget she's your photographer. This makes those candid shots so perfect. She spent the day with us & made sure nothing was missed in our photos. When I look at them now, I feel like I am reliving the whole day. I so appreciate the tiny little details she manages to get. Thank you so much, Sara!

The caterer is through Sodexo and our guests have not stopped complimenting the meal. Having our wedding at IWU made our day unique and run so smoothly, and we highly recommend it to any couple!

We’re a couple who’ve been together for over 10 years. While planning our own wedding, we discovered a passion for storytelling through film. Now, we help other couples preserve their day with timeless, emotional wedding videos that reflect their unique love story.

I had a wonderful experience working with Kling & Co. for our wedding videography. Their communication style was efficient, clear, respectful, and understanding throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was exceptional - their cinematic approach captured all the special moments beautifully, the audio was fantastic, and they provided great value at affordable prices. They really helped make the wedding day so memorable by highlighting family heirlooms and capturing heartfelt sound bites from friends and family. I would highly recommend Kling & Co. to any couple looking for a talented, professional wedding videography team.

Your loved ones will thank you for allowing your celebration to serve as a legacy of family history for generations to come.

Toast Weddings was the perfect choice for our wedding videography needs. From the very beginning, their team was responsive, compassionate, and highly professional in their communication. The quality of their work was excellent - they captured all the special, custom moments of our wedding day in Waialua, Hawaii with a keen eye for detail. As a couple who was 7 months pregnant with our first child at the time, the Toast Weddings team went above and beyond to cater to our unique situation and make sure our memories were beautifully preserved. Our videographer, Jason, had a truly creative vision that shone through in the final highlight video we received just 3 months after our wedding. We are beyond happy with our experience and the forever memories Toast Weddings has given us of our special day.

Between 2023-2024 of wedding planning, I had found Albany Capture on Zola and decided to book their services after doing some research. Wedding planning didn’t go accordingly at first to the point where I had to change the venue and date. Luckily Albany Capture was still available in spite of all the changes and was flexible in working along with us. My new husband and I just got married on May 2, 2025 and we can’t thank Pedro of Albany Capture enough for capturing our special day! Pedro is not only talented, he is so kind and professional at the same time. Even my guests kept telling me what an awesome photographer/videographer he is!

I used Something Borrowed Blooms for my December 2024 wedding. I used them for the bridal bouquet, MoH bouquet, and 2 centerpieces. I got so many compliments on my bridal bouquet and it was so easy to use without any concerns about getting my dress wet or damaged from real flowers. The flowers look real and even smell floral. The mailing and send-back process was a breeze. I would use them again in a heartbeat for another event.

OLAS were the easiest vendor I worked with throughout the wedding process. Their quick and efficient communication gave me the peace of mind I needed when it came to wedding photos. I had a very specific vision for our imagery, and OLAS and our photographer were more than accommodating as I neurotically guided some photos. Our photographer came equipped with a great attitude and even better skills in capturing our day, and I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photography experience.

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers

  • Florist
  • Starts at $350

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Awarded Best of Zola
Would highly recommend Flower Moxie! Mother of the bride who can’t keep her houseplants alive decided to take a risk with DIY bridal and bridesmaid bouquets. Could not have been happier. Flowers arrived right on time. I contacted Flower Moxie right away with a question on timing for unboxing. Alexa immediately responded and became our personal flower consultant for the next 4 days. She was professional and encouraging and FUN! I felt much more confident that we could create beautiful bouquets with her assistance. The educational videos on the website are so helpful and informative. I alerted her that just three of my stems arrived broken. Flower Moxie immediately posted a refund to my account so that I could replace those stems if I felt it necessary at a local store. I cannot say enough good things about the whole experience. The bridesmaids and bride created their own bouquets the morning of the venue during hair and makeup. Was really fun for all of them and they were absolutely stunning! Don’t be afraid of DIY. If I could keep these alive and thriving - you can too! Flower Moxie (and Alexa) are great partners for your special day!!
