As a DJ, I've had the opportunity to work with many venues in the Chicagoland area. The Bridge in Lemont is by far my favorite venue. The space is designed to give guests an outstanding experience in a beautiful building with several areas to keep the experience fresh, instead of being stuck in a stale hotel ballroom for six hours! The facility is purposely designed to make working in the space a breeze for vendors like myself. Finally, the staff—from the owners to the bartenders—are the best we work with. They care for both the clients (couples getting married) and the vendors, always keeping the best interests of the event's outcome in mind. I will always choose a Bridge Lemont wedding over another inquiry because it is guaranteed to be an amazing wedding.

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.

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!

My husband and I loved working with sugargoat for our wedding. As someone who doesn’t love cake but wanted the traditional experience of a cake cutting - I reached out to sugargoat to coordinate a tasting as I was intrigued by their adventurous flavors. We were able to set up a tasting quickly - the tasting consisted of their traditional flavors and a custom flavor that my husband and I came up with on our own - Peanut Butter, Jelly, Potato Chip. The bakery turned our flavor into the most delicious cupcake, so of course we included it as one of the layers in our wedding cake. I emailed inspiration photos of how I wanted our cake to look, and the team at sugargoat exceeded our expectations. Everyone was kind, and we loved communicating with Brennan. The team at sugargoat seemed genuinely excited about our wedding and our cake, it was nice to feel a personal connection with them vs. feeling like a number to them. Sadly on our wedding day, we did not have a piece of cake saved for her to eat, so I reached out to Brennan and they were able to make us a small cake of our custom flavor which we could eat on our Anniversary. 10/10

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!!

They went above and beyond, making thoughtful suggestions and recommendations that helped make our wedding day even more perfect. Roman and Anastasia were friendly, professional, and made the entire photography experience easy and stress-free. They also did a "family" engagement shoot ahead of our wedding, which was the most fun I had ever had taking photos. Could not have been a better experience all-around! We would highly recommend Roman Lorek Photography to any couple looking for a talented and dedicated wedding photography team.
