I can’t recommend them enough! Unfortunately I found them after booking my DJ but was able to book them for the Photo Booth and it was a 10/10! I LOVED that they can detach and come on the floor and grab some from guests who may not normally use a booth. Plus the action shots were fantastic. Communication was great, everything was just so perfect. Thank you for being a part of our day!

Harmony was a huge help during the planning process and made sure we had every detail in line. The new event space is so gorgeous and we had so many compliments from our guests about how amazing the venue was. It was so much fun to have our guests walk around the farm and see the animals as well. We also purchased our flowers from Rosewood, they not only fit our budget but they turned out stunning.

I’ll start off by saying, I’m not nearly as intimidating as my name. In winter of 2017, I married my best friend & now we live in a sweet little suburb just an hour outside of Chicago enjoying the views & peacefulness of living a bit more rural. Our fuzzy puppies Willow & Watson, (Wheaten Terriers who think they're human) love it too! 13 years of wedding experience has prepared me to capture your most cherished moments and turn them into heirlooms. I look forward to learning more about you & your love.

Hadassah was so easy to work with - she was organized, flexible with our schedules, and open to our ideas. We had a non-traditional wedding, but Hadassah was game for anything! Hadassah's warm personality made it easy for us to relax and feel comfortable posing for photos. She listened to things that were important to us and was able to provide suggestions for photo ideas. Hadassah captured the fun and candid moments of all our guests and paid attention to all the details. She was patient and provided a calming presence during the whole event. We're so thankful that we got to work with Hadassah and look forward to working with her in the future.

Nick and his team were the first vendors we booked once we set our wedding date! We knew we loved his style from my sisters wedding and we HAD to have them apart of our wedding day. He’s professional, so energetic, and goes above and beyond in every aspect! Nick and his team brought us our first drinks of the night, we’re so attentive to where my husband and I were during the reception - If we left the room for a moment, he didn’t play any of our requested songs he knew we’d want to be present for! The biggest compliment we receive from our wedding guests is still about Nick and the music - songs were played for just the right amount of time and he does an amazing job of keeping the energy up ALL NIGHT. One of my main goals for our reception was keeping the dance floor packed the whole time and Nick did just that. I honestly can’t say enough amazing things about Nick and his team at Impulse Entertainment. Impulse Entertainment is the vendor I recommend first to any of my friends once they get engaged. Thank you for giving us an amazing experience, Nick and team!

Denise and her team were such a pleasure to work with! As a photographer I’m able to almost go on autopilot when working with Marryment because I know they are on top of every small detail! From the flatlay, to the dress, the fine details of the timeline, etc. This might be an overstatement, but it also seems that Marryment has a huge following from word of mouth and not from a bunch of mindless advertising. That tells me one thing that is most important for any planner to have with couples…Trust! Every couple knows undoubtedly that their day is in great hands with Marryment! If I had money on the line I would put my money on them any day of the weekend!

She worked closely with my fiancé to bring our ideas to life and guided him through every step of the buying process with patience and expertise. The attention to detail in the final ring is incredible, and the pricing was incredibly fair for the quality of work we received. Alesha made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and enjoyable. We couldn't be happier with our ring or our experience at K. Hollis Jewelers!

Erin and her team were the absolute best! From the beginning, Erin was extremely kind and flexible with me. When it came to making the hair and makeup schedule for the wedding day, she made fixes to the schedule anytime I had change or concern on being done in time for the photographer. She added on an extra hair stylist to come and took on the task of doing both hair/makeup to make sure we were all done in time. As well as preventing me from paying an extra fee at the venue to come in an hour earlier. I had Lorraina do my makeup and Rachel do my hair and they made me feel so beautiful. Lorraina provided me with a little emergency kit after my makeup was done for touchups and Rachel taught my MOH how to put the hair pins my hair for after the ceremony. They do an amazing job working with large wedding party's and made our moms/bridesmaids feel so beautiful for our special day. We highly recommend Erin Smith Beauty Creations!

Hi there! We're a small, passionate team serving weddings, corporate events, birthdays, quinceañeras and everything in between across Chicago and the Chicagoland area. Every booking gets our full attention — because your event isn't just another date on our calendar. We're new to Zola but we have done over 150 events since we opened our business in summer of 2023. Our team members have combined over 10 years of experience in the wedding industry (photography, bartending).

The experience we had with Kishek was amazing! They have a standard package that included everything we needed from a photo booth service. They did not disappoint! All of our guests had a blast at their station and they definitely made it more memorable for all.

We just used Itasca Country Club for our nonprofit gala and recommend them for events. The food was great and the staff was very detail oriented and helpful.

Svat is a professional and an artist! We had a few hours set aside for photos before the ceremony and I honestly feel like we could have just taken pictures with Svat all day. He gives enough direction without it feeling like he's just shouting at you; the photos we've received so far are edited SO beautifully; and he worked with us to curate a mix of posed and candid shots to perfectly capture our big day! I feel like we got so lucky booking Svat and would definitely work with him again, given the opportunity!

Hi, I’m Joe! I’ve been photographing weddings for over 20 years because I love capturing authentic, heartfelt, and timeless moments while keeping the day fun and stress-free. I gently guide couples and families when needed, making sure the moments that matter most are captured beautifully. Featured in Modern Luxury Chicago Bride, and award-winning online and print magazines, I become couples’ go-to person on the day, building trust and creating images they’ll treasure forever. — Joe

Working with Joe was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding day. From start to finish, he made everything feel effortless. He’s calm, fun, and somehow everywhere and nowhere at the same time, capturing every moment without ever feeling intrusive. He went above and beyond — from stepping into traffic to help us get the perfect shot to catering to every need we had. Our photos at the Peninsula Hotel, North Avenue Beach, Millennium Park, the Rookery, and Board of Trade are absolutely stunning, and we get to relive the day every time we look at them. Joe isn’t just a photographer — he’s like family now, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience or the pictures.

I cant believe how amazing the photos turned out! They captured every moment, big and small. The video is stunning, i cried watching it the first time. They were so nice and patient, even with all the chaos of the day. Everyone felt comfortable and natural in front of the camera. I love how the photos feel real and not posed. The attention to detail is incredible. They made our wedding day even more special by capturing it perfectly. I will recommend them to everyone i know.
