Leah and her time were dedicated, diligent, and so creative in their work as my florist for my wedding. Leah worked really hard to give me my dream flowers within the budget I named, and we got so many compliments on the flowers and decor throughout our wedding. I particularly loved the "Design Your Bouquet" evening she put together for me and my mother/MIL that helped make my dream bouquet feel real!

Our dance floor was never empty!!! Dj Wrek, Jason from Turntable manners was amazing! the whole process of planning our wedding reception with him as so easy and simple. The reception ran so smoothly because Jason was on the ball and once the dance floor was open it wasnt empty, he read the room, knew when to change to the next song and what was needed to keep it pumping. He also listened to our specific request for songs we had as must plays and the final song of the night was perfect and a core memory for us.

Rooted in the heart of Chicago, IL, I am always ready to pack my bags and travel wherever your story unfolds (frequently travel to CO and WI).

Awarded Best of Zola
Look no further, Nikki is your gal! I wish I could give her 100000x stars It is so difficult to figure out which photographer is for you just from instagram and websites. But from day one when we met via zoom, Nikki was amazing. I instantly knew she was the perfect match for my husband and I. She is so kind, bubbly, and easy to get along with. Throughout the wedding planning process, if I had any questions about timeline, photo locations, etc. she would respond promptly and would be more than willing to help out. My husband and I are not so natural in front of the camera, but she made us feel that way!!! We did not want to spend hours taking couples portraits because we wanted to spend time with all of our guests. She captured some unbelievably beautiful portraits and candids without us feeling awkward in front of the camera. Nikki took the reigns for the weekend along with our wedding planner and made sure everything ran smoothly. She got along with our families and our families could not stop talking about how great she was. Lastly, I was SHOOK how fast she was able to get sneak peeks to us!!!! Literally the next day after our wedding, edited and everything. We just got our full album back and I could not be happier wow!!!! We have literally thousands of photos, our day was captured so perfectly. I will never use any other photographer. Nikki is nothing short of amazing! You will not be disappointed. We love you Nikki!!! There are no words, we can't thank you enough!

We are SO glad we chose Firehouse Chicago for our wedding in Sept 2024. It was truly the most beautiful, special day, and so much more than we ever imagined. The Firehouse was the perfect backdrop for our day. We chose to rent the upstairs room to get ready morning of, took all of our pictures onsite, had our ceremony in the garden, and dinner/reception in the engine room. The gorgeous greenery, subway tiles, natural light, and overall gorgeous aesthetic was perfect for us to relax and enjoy our day, and was truly picturesque from every angle for photos. Their attention to detail in curating this beautiful space is truly remarkable. Beyond its idyllic setting, one of the biggest perks of Firehouse Chicago, is the staff, and the wedding coordination that is included (you don't need to hire a separate day-of or month-of coordinator for this venue!). We got the pleasure of working closely with Teddy and Sarah and we really appreciated their calm reassuring demeanor throughout the wedding planning process, and their delicate touch knowing how important this day was for us and know overwhelming wedding planning can be. They truly helped take some of the stress and worry out of the planning process from start to finish. They ensured every little detail went off without a hitch from start to finish. They were so helpful in initial planning, month-of coordinating, day-of execution, and responding to all of my questions along the way. The rest of the Firehouse Staff was incredible day-of, and made sure everything ran smoothly. They kept us to our timeline, checked in with us frequently throughout the day, calmed my nerves as I waited to walk down the aisle, helped hype us up and build our confidence for our fire pole entrance, and even ensured we had some quiet time to ourselves after the ceremony to let things sink in and enjoy our moment. Their staff is truly the best- we were so fortunate we chose them for our big day.

We LOVED working with Layne. She is such a positive energy and you can tell that she is so passionate about capturing the vibe and emotions of your wedding. When we look back at our photos we can see how it felt on that day. We were also unfortunate enough to experience a Covid wedding cancellation 2 months before our wedding was supposed to take place. Layne was very supportive and was willing to work with us to photograph our later elopement instead. Very communicative and a pleasure all around! We always recommend her when our friends are getting married as well.

  • Planner
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Glencoe, IL

We were born from lessons learned by tackling the most important wedding to date; my own. A planner to my core, I never considered the need for assistance when planning and executing my wedding. And while I threw a truly great party, it came at the expense of me enjoying my own wedding. I took away from the experience the hard truth that just because I could, didn’t mean I should, and have turned that into something that I truly love; watching other couples bask in their moment, stress-free. We offer a variety of wedding and honeymoon services with the simple mission of creating beautiful, unique events that feel as good as they look.

Lisa was an absolute dream to work with. From the initial planning, to coordinating all of our vendors, and then of course the day-of timeline, flow, and impromptu problem solving. If you’re anything like me, you’ll be a nervous wreck on your wedding day. Leading up to our big day I was cool as a cucumber so I truly didn’t think I would be, but the anticipation had my anxiety at an all time high. Lisa gracefully reassured me every step of the way. She will do it all for you. She will ensure that every last, tiny detail is perfect. But perhaps even more importantly, she has the warmth of an old friend. I can’t recommend Bisoux Event Co. enough. She made our wedding day incredibly special and for that, I’m so grateful.

Photography has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. What started as a childhood passion grew into a lifelong pursuit of storytelling through images. I’m based in both Union, Illinois, and Florida, which allows me to capture weddings in a variety of beautiful settings. When I’m not behind the camera, I’m gardening, traveling, or spending time with my partner, Kenny, and our three pets. My work has been featured in many publications, but what truly drives me is creating honest, meaningful imagery for my couples—photos that will live on as part of their legacy.

Most of your day doesn't need our direction - it is perfect the way it is. When we do see the perfect lighting, or a gorgeous setting, you better believe we will suggest it.

I have had the pleasure of work with Dana and her team on many occasions. She has been my go-to photographer for years and has shot everything from my wedding, family photos, and headshots. Not only is Dana supremely talented (as you can see from her portfolio) she is a true delight to work with. I am not always comfortable in front of the camera and Dana (and her entire team) are so talented at making sure everyone feels comfortable, confident, and are having fun! I couldn’t believe how quickly Dana got me my preview photos after my wedding, it was so exciting to relive the day and be able to share the photos with family and friends.

My wife and I have always loved Rainbow Cone. Our first date was at their original Beverly location over 13 years ago, and it felt only fitting to have Rainbow Cone present at our wedding reception. From the beginning, John B. and his team were communicative, professional, and great to work with. On the day of the reception the RBC team showed up when they were supposed to and did an amazing job of providing quick and courteous scoop service to our 150 guests. They even went above and beyond and cleaned their area of the reception hall when our caterer dropped the ball and didn't do it themselves (please don't expect them to do this, but just to show they did an amazing job!) Plus, above all of that, the ice cream was just delicious, and initiated many folks into the Rainbow Cone fan club when they got their first taste. Overall, RBC provided a 10/10 experience that we'll always be thankful for and will never forget. We're fans for life. Thanks Rainbow Cone!

Evan had to compete with a rooftop terrace on a beautiful night and people loved the music! We received so many compliments from our guests on how fun the music was. Groove Is In The Heart DJs provided incredible value and we couldn't recommend them more highly!

My husband and I were thrilled with our experience at The Lytle House for our wedding. From the very beginning, the communication with Michelle and Robyn was diligent, detailed, helpful, and quick - making the planning process incredibly easy. On the day of the event, they went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfectly set up and executed, with a warm and accommodating demeanor that made us and our guests feel right at home.

We took our time to review most photographer and Gordino Photo and Video stood tall to us. And we were thrilled we went with them. He took his time to walk us through every step and stage. Godfred is very friendly and easy to work with. The photos delivered were beautiful, amazing and I couldn't help taking my eyes of the photos. I will recommend Gordino Photo and Video a hundred times again and again.

We absolutely loved having our wedding day at Fairlie and would have it there 100 times again. The beauty of this space is that you can really make it yours with whatever decor you choose to bring in. Alexis and Alex at Fairlie are incredibly easy to work with, super laid back, and are just as excited about your big day as you are. The romantic vibes that we got in this space at golden hour just elevated our wedding that much more, and the exposed brick really made this a unique venue for our city wedding. The curtains allow for an easy way to flip the space and also are just beautiful paired with the tall ceilings. Our guests loved how big the bar was because they felt there was never too long of a wait for a drink. So many good things to say — we love Fairlie so much!!!!
