ojo Creative
Elmhurst, IL
  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style

When I think about the importance of wedding films, I often tell my clients that their wedding film is not necessarily for them. What I mean by that, is that our goal is to create a memory that generations can look back on and say.., “look at Grandma with her girlfriends!!” Or “I didn’t know papa was such a great dancer”. It’s this belief that drives my team and I to go above and beyond to make sure we have the most captured of a wedding day so that the final product remains a cherished memory that everyone can look back on and smile. By adding photography to our team, we are able to capitalize on video shots give it the best of both.

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers

5.0

Oklahoma City, OK
  • Florist
  • Serves South Elgin, IL

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
I highly recommend Flower Moxie for any bride looking to save some money and DIY flowers! It can be a lot to take on, so if you are not a DIY type of bride - this might not be for you. However, if you ARE... Flower Moxie is a great option. Prior to finding Flower Moxie, I spent countless hours researching different types of flowers, how many to get, how to care for them, etc. It was honestly one of the most stressful part of wedding planning because I was worried about overordering, underordering, not knowing what flowers looked good together. I finally discovered Flower Moxie and it was GAME CHANGER. They have pre-selected bundles by color or theme. This put my mind at ease because I didn't have to worry about counting stems, and if anything arrived damaged, they will send you new ones! They are extremely responsive and very helpful. We had some flowers that did not open and they shipped replacements right to our venue. The only thing I would recommend is ordering some additional greens. We definitely did not have enough but luckily I had ordered some extra greens/stock. I think our centerpieces would have looked very small without the additional greens I purchased. Flower Moxie also has a ton of helpful tutorials and pamphlets. I loved how our arrangements turned out and would definitely recommend them to future brides.

Something Borrowed Blooms

Lafayette, LA
  • Florist
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves South Elgin, IL

Thousands of brides across the United States and Canada have trusted Something Borrowed Blooms to provide the perfect flowers for their wedding day. We offer brides the expensive peonies, delicate ranunculus, out-of-season anemones, and the ever-impossible-to-find-magnolia — all at a fraction of the cost.

Don’t even think about spending thousands on real flowers. These silk flowers were incredible and I LOVED using Something Borrowed Bloom. Everything came in fantastic shape, the process was fairly easy. My only advice would be to make sure you know who will be shipping everything back the next day and to have someone who’s responsible in charge of collecting the boutonnières and bouquets at the end of the night ! The flowers were gorgeous. We rent them for bouquets, boutonnières, garland, cake table decor and used the bridesmaids bouquets as the center pieces. Saved a ton of money and no one could tell they were silk flowers until you said something. Would highly recommend!

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

Abigail is a great photographer that not only does great work and gets stuff done but she's also hilarious and down to earth! We had her shoot our engagement pictures and wedding pictures and they turned out amazing! From making us laugh, to getting the whole family to pay attention down to getting the best shots we will have to cherish! She offers so much for her clients and I'm excited to have her do our family pictures as well. If you want fun and cherishing moments without having to worry about if you're getting the pictures you want, Abigail is your girl!

I received so so so many compliments on how beautiful and real looking they are. I love that I can keep them forever and put them on display or Jen said she can turn them into a wreath.

So so happy we went with The Still Life Photography for our wedding photos! We had a 120-person indoor city wedding in April 2022 and it was so perfectly captured by Nicole. Communication from the get-go was so easy, she was enthusiastically responsive every step of the way. Her photos are so vibrant in color - one of our groomsmen is a professional photographer and he actually helped us select Nicole and The Still Life out of a variety of other potential photographers and we're so happy with how our photos turned out. Sneak peek came out the week of, and full set of photos about 6 weeks later. I especially appreciate that the full set included "duplicate" photos from various orientations (horizontal, vertical, etc) so there was plenty to choose from. Highly recommend and really have no complaints at all!

Believe it or not, we often have people ask if our pictures throughout our website are showing a mix of fresh and faux and…no they aren’t! Although fresh florals are pretty, we are totally in love with poser-blooms all the way here and that’s what we design 100% of our orders with.

Awarded Best of Zola
There have been so many stressful things about wedding planning, but the flowers with Faux Bouquets have been the least stressful. All I had to do was find some inspiration on Pinterest. After this, Brittany went to work and created my bouquet. We met over Google meets which was super easy, and she was so positive and kind. I told her that we changed some colors around in our color scheme and she went off camera, came back on and they were added to my bouquet. I think the most beautiful thing is that no matter how she mixed up my floral arrangement, it still was beautiful. After our phone call, I got a complete photo shoot of everything we ordered. Then in about 3 weeks, everything was shipped to my house. I do not have to worry about flowers dying, or flowers looking too fake (because they really look real) or even having to schedule a day to go pick them up. All I had to do was find pictures on Google and watch her do her magic over a 15-minute video call (if that long). If you are looking for something easy, stress-free, and beautiful, I would definitely use Faux Bouquets.

After growing up in Central Jersey, Brent chose to move down to Nashville for college and then shortly after graduation, officially founded 550Park out of New York City. He is a passionate tennis player, chef, and world adventurer.

We found 550Park at a wedding show. At the time, I was not looking nor interested in hiring a videographer. Brent asked me to have a look at a highlight reel, and it instantly gave me chills. After some long nights of thinking about this video, we decided we could not live WITHOUT this. We made room in our budget to add this and realized that capturing this day is actually priceless. The first time I watched our highlight reel, it gave me such an adrenaline rush. Our friends had goosebumps and tears. I can't stop watching it. He really caught all the moments that I adored... and barely remember! Everything looked so beautiful, and everyone had so much fun... more than I even realized. We are able to relive and remember the day that took over a year to plan. Brent's filming and editing skills are unsurpassed. The video quality, the extra time he took to capture the beauty of the venue and the scenery, shots of the guests and wedding party along with us (bride and groom). The video was everything we could have ever wanted and so much more. My friends said they wished they would have hired him for their weddings...

Jokay stayed and worked exactly with our budget, connected us with the perfect vendors, always available to discuss the plans, she was very organized and detailed, having every aspect of the event/planning on a spread sheet.

I had such a wonderful experience with kimberly. She was absolutely wonderful and having her to plan was such a weight off my back. She started planning with me months in advance and went above and beyond what was expected of her. I never once regretted the cost of her services and she made my day go so much smoother and took care of so many little details I would've never thought of. She was truly a bridal bestie I could rant to and run ideas through. She was always available to pick her brain and was not just a yes woman, but someone who I truly felt like was a friend. Having her there the day of was a life saver from helping me into my dress to unbuttoning all 1000 buttons at the end of the day before my send off. She helped in keeping me calm and orchestrating the flow of the day. I would recommend her to my own sister and any of my friends. It was a joy to have her as part of my day.

What started out as a hobby, evolved into a great passion. With a camera on hand for every event, I spent my lunch money as a young kid developing films at the photo store. I became so fond of capturing as many organic moments as I can in photographs and fell in love with the idea of telling people's stories in images rather than words. I started venturing into professional photography right after my own wedding to my high school sweetheart, Erick, which was back in 2014. I LOVE everything wedding-related. My favorite to photographs are the wedding details, the bride and groom portraits and anything that will make me either cry or laugh!

Awarded Best of Zola
Michelle and her husband Erick photographed both our engagement photos in the fall of 2020 and our wedding photos in the summer of 2021, and we couldn’t be happier with how they turned out! Michelle took the time to get to know us as a couple through conversations and surveys to best capture our personalities and relationship in her photos. She even was happy to make the trip out to Starved Rock State Park to photograph us in one of our favorite spots for our engagement photo session. Moreover, Michelle is incredibly organized and detail oriented, making her a true joy to work with. From scouting out the perfect places for photographs to helping us schedule our big day to coordinating with all of our other vendors, Michelle was an immense help in our wedding planning process. I highly recommend Michelle’s photography services!

When an unfortunate family emergency happened and we had to change our wedding date, Taylor was absolutely so kind and easy to work with, and made the very difficult task of moving a wedding from Fall to the following summer, a lot easier to manage. The band was sooo spectatular too. We did an 11-piece band and every single member completely brought their A-game the whole night. We received so many compliments on how much fun our dance floor was. Thanks BWK for making our night one to never forget :)

She is so helpful and knowledgeable and I definitely recommend her work to any bride who needs a planner, coordinator, or decor for their wedding. She is a very honest, kind, and patient person and working with her has been such a delight. I've learned so much about the wedding planning process and it's been so fun.
