I know how exciting (and overwhelming) this time can be. I know exactly what I wanted and expected on my big day, and I believe that helps translate into knowing a lot about what you want as well.

As an experienced artist, I have great pride in my ability to make a woman look her most beautiful, while remaining true to her natural self. I lean toward a light hand, specializing in creating a gorgeous, luminous glow, but also know when to turn up the drama.

Brooke & The Nice Things 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Palatine, IL

A co-founder and lead singer of the group, Brooke began the pursuit of her musical and stage career at a very early age. At 18, Brooke moved to New York City where she continued her education in music and theater. She moved to Chicago in 2011 and quickly collaborated with others who shared her love of soul and R&B music to create the familiar soulful, but unique sound of Brooke & The Nice Things. Brooke’s stage presence is surpassed only by her voice, which ranges from deep and gritty to sweet and soothing, not unlike what Brooke would tell you she will demand in her dressing room when she hits it big - whiskey and puppies…

Hiring Brooke and the Nice Things for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made! Steve and the band were so easy to work with start to finish. At the wedding, their music kept the dance floor full all the way until the final song, and then through the encore as the crowd was chanting for more! They easily gained another hundred fans at our wedding. They were engaging the entire night, and so communicative leading up to the wedding to make sure the night and performance were all we were hoping for. They made our night so magical and we couldn't have asked for anything more! We would recommend them to anyone looking for a live band at their wedding!

I'm just a suburban girl who decided to turn her dreams into a reality. I'm all about building relationships and connections. After all, that's what wedding photography is all about. I do this job every weekend because I'm one of those people that is obsessed with pictures. Not just for a living, but for myself. I understand the value in photography. I do this for people who are just like me. For the ones who cherish those photos hanging on the walls. The photos still in that purple glitter album from 2002 of you and your friends in Limited Too. Those memories are all we have from the anchors that built us. Photos are proof that we have lived

Lauryn is not only a spectacular photographer, but her organization and lively personality make working with her for your wedding such a great experience. We were nervous about engagement photos as neither of us are super comfortable in front of a camera, but she made us feel at ease, knowing exactly how to guide us and make us feel natural. We are a type-A couple, so Lauryn's professional platform was another huge benefit to working with her. Lauryn's portal houses all your information, she sends regular check lists and questionnaires to ensure she has everything she needs and is extremely communicative. This made us feel so supported throughout the planning process. Lastly, on our wedding day she was such a pleasure have with us. She corralled our friends and family to get things done efficiently without sacrificing quality--allowing us to enjoy our big day to the fullest. We received a sneak peek within a few days, and the full 1,000 images in less than 2 weeks. And they were STUNNING. We couldn't stop reliving our wedding day through her photography, and we'll forever be grateful for Lauryn's talent.

I wasn't born with a camera in hand, but I was born with a passion for telling stories.

Ashley Hamm Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves Palatine, IL

Hi, I'm Ashley! A Chicago wedding photographer with a love for capturing fun-loving and adventurous couples. From the I do’s to the epic dance moves, it’s my passion to capture authentic and candid moments created and inspired by one-of-a-kind couples! My process is simple. Document your day and create a vision with you: together we’ll create a seamless day that doesn’t feel like a posed photo shoot. I am LGBTQ+ friendly and support inclusivity and diversity.

Ashley is incredible and we cannot recommend her enough! As an LGBQT couple we were looking for someone who not only make us feel comfortable but understood posing for a same sex couple. Starting from our initial kick-off call to our engagement shoot and through our wedding day Ashley was nothing short of amazing! She made us feel at ease and like someone we had known for a lifetime. She was knowledgeable and helpful when it came to picking out a location and poses for our shoots during our engagement session and wedding day. Ashley was prompt, patient, understanding and brought a much needed sense of calm on our wedding day itself. Let's face it, weddings always have a curveball and Ashley was able to go with the flow and help my husband and I feel immediately at ease while still capturing the day. Every photo delivery we would receive, was better than the last. We thought we couldn't be happier after seeing our engagement session and then we received the photos from our wedding day. Ashley captured not only our special moments of the day but the details (flowers, table settings, bar set up, guest book set up etc.) and we couldn't be happier. Quality service, quality photos, quality across the board. At the end of the day Ashley feels like family and that's more than we could have ever asked for!

Established in 2000, DJ-Chicago has set the standard for the DJ industry in Chicago for the past 25 years. Since our inception, our number one priority has been simple, to meet or exceed our client’s expectations for their event entertainment.

As the groom I was responsible for the music. I interviewed several DJs and was impressed with DJ-Chicago. Nick, owner, was service oriented and was flexible with options. Nearing the wedding, Nick was focused on announcements and walk-in songs. At the reception, Nick was great at keeping the crowd dancing and sticking to our playlist options. With no reservations I'd refer friends and family to DJ-Chicago.

Melissa and her crew were exceptionally communicative and collaborative throughout our entire planning process. They provided excellent support the day of the wedding and showed both flexibility and calmness throughout the event. Overall picture quality was good, but the photos of the wedding itself and post-wedding family gathering suffered from bad lighting and unfortunate positioning.

We also love hosting private events such as cocktail making classes and other workshops for bridal & wedding celebrations.

Miss Liz was very thorough about explaining the capacity of her services and very accommodating. She can fit any budget! Drinks were amazing! Her skills were a highlight from my wedding. I'd definitely consider her for a future event!

My husband and I booked Urban Allure as our wedding planners for month-of / day-of coordination services. We were paired with Kyleigh and her associate Ellie. They were unbelievably wonderful to work with ahead of the big day. They are professional, knowledgeable, and just overall nice people. I am so happy and thrilled we booked them, the month leading up to the wedding, they helped us with all the last minute items, payments, and final walk through, timeline & floorplan. The day of the wedding they ensured we were loaded in the shuttles in time and made it to the venue. They set up all our day-of items perfectly and made sure there were no issues all night, including keeping us on track with the timeline. We cannot recommend Kyleigh, Ellie, and the whole Urban Allure Team enough! They helped make our day so special and truly were a priceless service that I am so happy we went with!

The team at Wildman was so kind and accommodating for us as we planned our wedding day. We wanted our wedding to feel like a big party, and Wildman’s flexible space worked perfectly for transitioning from our ceremony into our reception. The upstairs bridal suite was perfect for us to relax before the ceremony and have a moment to regroup afterward before joining our guests, and also to change into a party dress after dinner! Our guests loved the gorgeous lounge furniture and bathrooms. We’re so happy we chose Wildman for our wedding venue! Thank you so much for everything, Michelle and Valentina!
