“DJ Ken was UNREAL. I did not leave the dance floor from the moment DJ Ken started playing and neither did my guests. The next day, everyone was raving about the DJ. As one of the most important parts of a wedding, I cannot recommend trusting your entertainment with DJ Ken enough. From the moment we began working with DJ Ken, he made our wedding feel like his biggest priority and that he was there to make our vision come to life. From the music, to the cold sparks & the Go Snap Photobooth…our wedding was what we dreamed of and more.”

“If I could get married over and over again, I would use Sweety Dream every time. No exaggeration! My first meeting as virtual and she was able to fit around my schedule. During that call, I laid out my vision with different colors, flowers, and photos to help us. Svitlana listened, asked questions, and made adjustments to what flowers were available with going over budget. Svitlana made my vision and dreams come true when I saw the flowers on my wedding day!

Dreaming of the perfect Wedding First Dance? We take pride in helping our couples make that dream true.

We also specialize in Father-Daughter, Mother-Son, & Bridal Party dances, and general dancing for the reception. Send us a note today with additional questions or to book your First Introductory lesson with one of our fantastic professional dance instructors!

“We found Lake Shore Dance Academy about 2 years ago in a total panic. With only six weeks until our wedding and zero dance experience between us, the thought of performing in front of a crowd was terrifying. In just a few short weeks, Anna managed to take us from absolute beginners to confidently nailing a fun Rumba that completely shocked our friends and family! Apparently, the chaos of our wedding dance wasn't enough to deter us, because 2 years later, we are still at it with Anna. Since that first dance, she has continued to push us out of our comfort zones in the best ways possible. We’ve progressed from wedding prep, to performing a fully-costumed Viennese Waltz showcase, to recently completing our third official dance competition! Dance has added so much to our lives. For me as someone who works from home as a software developer, it’s the perfect physical outlet to disconnect from stress. For my wife, it has been an incredible boost to confidence and self-expression. Most importantly, it’s given us a shared goal and a fun way to connect and problem-solve as a couple. Anna has a fun and light hearted personality yet manages to strike an effective balance of making lessons challenging, yet effective and rewarding. Whether you just want to survive your wedding dance or you want to eventually hit the competition floor, we can't recommend Lake Shore Dance Academy enough. We look forward to continuing our dance journey for years to come!”

Hi, Im Carol DeAnda, born and raised in the southwest suburbs and now living in Lake in the Hills Illinois, with my studio in downtown Algonquin. I have always been the one with the camera since grade school, but it wasn't until high school I realized that this could be my calling. After high school, I attended Harrington College of Design for the Digital photography program and started on my path to becoming a professional photographer. I am a PPA member and CPP (Certified Professional Photographer) and hold the Master Wedding Photographer degree from PPA, as well as a member of The Wedding Equality Alliance.

“Carol and her team are ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL when it comes to photography! The work is second-to-none, the professionalism is always consistent, and everyone is always so friendly! :) I have been working alongside Carol at weddings for several years now. As a DJ, it can be tough to communicate with vendors and make sure everyone is always ready to go. This is definitely not the case with Carol. I'm able to find her in a moment's notice and she's ready to capture those precious moments in an instant! Not to mention, her genuine love for her clients. Each and every couple that she works for she gives her all - and that not only shows on the day of an event, but also in her work. Carol and her team edit and produce SOME OF THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHY WORK I HAVE EVER SEEN. Seriously. If you haven't checked out her portfolio, do it now. Carol has an eye for not only capturing your ideas, but also the tiny details that no one else would ever think about. Do yourself a favor a book with Carol and her team.”

I'm Fidel, a Chicagoland wedding DJ and MC with 19 years behind the decks. My job is simple: a packed dance floor and a day that feels 100% like you. Planning is where great weddings start. We'll meet on video calls, and I'll give you my shared planning worksheet for your ceremony, entrances, must-plays, and do-not-plays, so every detail is locked in before the day. Need a custom edit, an instrumental for a live singer, or mics for your officiant? I've got you.

Awarded Best of Zola
“From our first conversation, DJ Fidel was responsive and knew exactly what we needed for our wedding day. He coordinated all the big moments perfectly and even gave me a heads up right before he played one of my favorite artists. What really stood out was how he kept the energy high all night long without a single awkward pause. His technical skills were flawless and everything ran like clockwork. But honestly, the best part was hearing from every single guest about how incredible he was – that's when we knew we'd made the right choice. We can't recommend DJ Fidel enough!”

A decade in professional theater. Nine years as a fine art street photographer. Now I shoot weddings. The theater taught me comfort—how to help nervous couples relax and forget the camera. The street work trained my eye—finding extraordinary frames in ordinary moments, chasing light like it owes me money. The result: signature portraits that feel like paintings and a shoot that feels like hanging out with a friend. 300+ weddings. 151+ five-star reviews. A 10-photographer team. Zero cookie-cutter work. Camera-shy? Creative? Both? Let's talk.

Awarded Best of Zola
“We are absolutely thrilled with our experience working with Jeremy! He is so considerate, professional, and easy to talk to. He is incredibly creative and motivated to make our dreams come to life. He was even willing to hike in a forest with us on a hot, buggy evening to capture the most beautiful photos we've ever seen that will forever remind us of our special day. 10/10, no complaints - he is simply the best!”

Hi! I’m Amber, Owner and Lead Planner of Peony Event Planning. I built this company from the ground up, gaining hands-on experience through real weddings and collaborations with talented industry professionals. Each event has shaped me as both a planner and a business owner dedicated to creating seamless, meaningful experiences. While weddings are our specialty, we love being part of your story from beginning to end—engagements, showers, celebrations, and everything in between.

“Amber is the best choice you can make for your day. We hired her as a day of coordinator. What we got was so much more. There was so many elements we had no idea about that amber held our hand through and just handled. We thought the florals were the decor. How wrong we were thank goodness we had Amber and her collection of candles to complete our room and make it perfect. In addition she went half with us on the chuppah and built it and kept it for her future brides to rent. Literally, any way amber could make our lives easier or better she did. She took on all the communications with our vendors at the 6 month mark. If something went wrong on our wedding day my husband and I couldn’t tell you. Amber made the day flow so seamlessly. She went so far above to the point where she literally took care of over 50 butterflies that my mom sent to her the week before our wedding for a release. She told me she was ensuring they stayed alive and got them there in their envelops the day of. While also keeping it a secret from everyone. I also told her multiple times when it comes time for my future children’s bar/bat mitzvahs and any other large parties she will have to branch out from weddings because I will trust no one else with those big days but her. Amber is a calming presence and becomes a friend by the time your big day comes along. I could go on forever. I could not recommend her enough. She makes all your crazy wants and desires happen.”

My photography style is timeless, natural, light, and effortlessly real.

Dave isn't afraid to joke around, but he's also very kind and ready to provide reassurance when needed. He took a lot of time to plan a very detailed and personalized wedding ceremony with us. We really appreciated that he took the time to learn our love story to later be used in our ceremony - it was incredibly special to relive our journey to getting married with our family and friends on our wedding day. Rev. Dave traveled to Wisconsin for our rehearsal and ceremony, which we so appreciated. We also were so appreciative of his ability to make everyone comfortable in their roles! He worked with our rather reserved bridal party and parents to ensure they were comfortable in their roles and confident in their duties, resulting in a perfect ceremony.

I am a certified wedding planner with a passion for learning. It all started over 10 years ago when I worked as a birthday party host at a park district, eventually expanding to fundraising events, showers, and weddings. My passion for weddings and events grew, and I began helping friends and family with their weddings. Now, I run my own business! There is nothing I love more than seeing an idea come to life! When I'm not planning weddings, you'll find me cuddling with my baby, enjoying the show Friends under a cozy blanket, or sharing a meal with a glass (or two) of wine with my husband. I'd love to chat and learn more about you!

As the photographer for the day, I was so impressed with how organized, communicative, and genuinely kind their team was from start to finish. They kept everything running smoothly while creating such a relaxed, joyful atmosphere for everyone involved. It truly felt like we were all on the same page, working together to give the couple the best day ever. Can’t wait to work with this amazing team again! It was truly a dream collaboration!”

Your wedding story, captured through real, effortless connection. The most beautiful images happen when you feel comfortable enough to be yourself. From booking to your last dance, I make sure you feel at ease, supported, and excited. My style is soft, emotive, and rooted in candid magic—the quiet glances and unprompted laughter. I let genuine emotion lead the way rather than stiff, rehearsed poses. Weddings can be a whirlwind, but sessions with me feel relaxed and fun, like spending time with an old friend. Come as you are, bring your love, and I will preserve the big milestones and everyday magic you’ll want to remember forever.

“From the moment we booked Enerel Photography, her communication was quick and responsive, which gave us confidence in our choice. On our wedding day, she went far beyond just taking pictures—she helped adjust my hair, dress, and veil while guiding us through poses and positioning. What really stood out was how she made the entire process feel natural and stress-free, even though I'm uncomfortable being photographed. She treated me like a friend rather than just a client, was supportive of all my ideas, and made me feel completely at ease. Her photos are sharp and candid, capturing the genuine moments that matter most. I'm so grateful we hired her.”

“We can't recommend Carey enough! From the moment we met him, he made us feel comfortable, relaxed, and genuinely ourselves in front of the camera. His sense of humor and easygoing personality made taking photos one of the most enjoyable parts of the day. When our timeline didn't go exactly as planned, he was incredibly flexible and never made us feel rushed or stressed. He adapted seamlessly while still making sure we captured the moments that were most important to us. What impressed us most was how well he understood our personalities and the style we were hoping for. The candid moments, the little glances, the laughter, and the emotions throughout the day were all beautifully documented. We're so grateful to have these memories to look back on for years to come. If you're looking for a photographer who is talented, professional, fun to work with, and truly invested in telling your story, we couldn't recommend him more highly.”
