"I Do" Weddings, Ltd. 

5.0

  • Officiant
  • Offers 8 ceremony types
  • Serves Village Of Lakewood, IL

Rev. Phil is a full-time wedding officiant. He is real minister (with a Master of Divinity degree). He has been married to Pam for 41 years. He enjoys watching movies (tries to see all the Oscar nominees), reading newspapers on his iPad, the Bears, summer concerts at the Chicago Botanic Garden and wine. He and his wife love to chat, listen to music and drink wine in front of their fireplace or in the backyard, depending on the season.

We feel so lucky to have had Reverend Phil as our officiant—he truly made our outdoor ceremony not only beautiful and memorable, but deeply meaningful. He brought the perfect balance of a religious tone with warmth and sincerity, creating an atmosphere that felt so personal and reflective of us as a couple. Every part of the ceremony was incredibly intentional. Reverend Phil involved us throughout the entire process, from approving the full script to holding a rehearsal on the grounds to ensure everything would go smoothly. He didn’t just officiate—he genuinely acted as a ceremony coordinator, stepping in when needed (including when the wind unexpectedly knocked over and broke our glass vases) and handling it all with calm and care. We can't recommend Reverend Phil enough to any couple looking for a ceremony that’s heartfelt, thoughtful, and truly unforgettable.

I can't even begin to describe how absolutely amazing and wonderful our experience was with Moira! When we first contacted Moira she called us to go over our questions, and her services, it was so nice to be able to have a conversation about what we wanted and what she would provide! In the time leading up to our engagement shoot, I had changed my mind on location multiple times and Moira was extremely understanding and helped my vision come to life! We took our engagement pictures at the public library where I met my (now) husband and even took some pictures in the rain at our favorite park! Moira worked thru the downpour and got some AMAZING shots! Leading up to our wedding we met with Moira to go over timeline and she helped to make sure we would have enough time allocated for everything we wanted. On our wedding day Moira was punctual and extremely amazing to work with! We had to move some things around timeline wise and it all worked out beautifully. Our pictures are absolutely INCREDIBLE. I'm obsessed with them and she captured our day perfectly. I hope this review helps with your decision to pick your photographer, and I would HIGHLY recommend working with Moira, she is the best of the best!

My images are the perfect mix of posed and photojournalistic, giving you gorgeous portraits without missing the important, candid moments you will want to remember for years to come. My approach to wedding days is simple: I want to make sure you have images of you two that you love and cherish and tell your wedding day story.

Awarded Best of Zola
I came across Tawny a few years ago when she was tagged on another Instagram page that I followed. I was immediately drawn to her style, and her inclusiveness as a photographer. I knew someday, when the time came for me to get married, that Tawny would be on the short list. After getting engaged and beginning our vendor search, Tawny's attention to detail, and personalization of her services stood out amongst all the other inquiries we sent out. Something as simple as the personalized video she sent us after our initial inquiry, detailing her packages and what she felt would be best based on what we were looking for. When we finally met for our engagement shoot this past February, we had an instant connection! Tawny was so inclusive, and captured our vision so perfectly that we could not wait until wedding day! This past weekend, we had the pleasure of spending the entire day with her, and as a bride, the biggest piece of advice I can give other brides is to choose vendors who you vibe with, and want to spend your whole day with! I would get married a million times over if Tawny was going to be on my team!
