Awarded Best of Zola
Shawfield Events is THE best at wedding planning and coordinating! My husband and I had worked with Corinne over the last year planning and preparing for our September 2025 wedding whilst living out of state. There was NOTHING Corinne couldn't do and her advocacy for us in the times we needed her when dealing with other vendors was so meaningful and a huge stress reliever. Corinne and Meghan both are extremely detail oriented, extremely thorough, and communicate with their couples promptly. Their ability to manage and exceed our expectations while providing insight and recommendations about things we never thought of were next level and greatly appreciated. Having Shawfield Events be present for our Wedding Rehearsal, overseeing set up at the reception venue, and being present with us the day of our wedding was the best investment we made during our wedding planning process. Thank you Corinne and Meghan for making our vision come true!!!

Rachael Marie Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves San Jose, IL

At the end of the day, all we have are the stories told about us and the ones we write about ourselves. I love writing about the musings of life and sharing my thoughts with others in conversation and social media posts. I constantly document my own life so I don't forget the big or little moments. Every time I travel to somewhere new I love connecting with those who cross my path, and yet I love coming home to my dog. TLDR: sentimental soul, avid movie goer, mental health advocate, and decent chocolate chip cookie maker.

Rachael Marie Photography was an incredible choice for our wedding photographer. From the very beginning, Rachael was quick to respond to all of our questions and communicated clearly with us throughout the planning process. On the day of the wedding, she was fun, caring, and gave great direction to help us look our best in the photos. The final photos were absolutely gorgeous - moody, high-quality, and reliable. We especially loved getting a quick preview of some of the photos just a few days after the wedding. Rachael truly captured the magic of our special day, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Highly recommend Rachael Marie Photography!

Nicole and Michael went above and beyond for our wedding in Mexico. Not only did they travel all the way to Mexico for us, but when it poured down rain on our wedding day, they took extra time from their vacation to take even more photos of us a few days after our wedding. I told Nicole that I didn't want basic wedding photos, I wanted art, and she delivered! We plan to continue using Gray Photography Company for all of our family photos and future milestones. Cannot recommend them enough!

Cured Catering

  • Starts at $1

Catering doesn’t have to be boring, and it shouldn’t be. Business owner Brian Reilly used this philosophy to create something different; a company that takes a fresh approach to the often stale catering market. Relying on skills honed in over 20 years of management, hospitality and special event services, Reilly set out to create a fusion of fresh and interesting foods with artistic and engaging displays. The result was Cured Catering.

I cannot say enough about Cured Catering -- their professional and accommodating staff go above and beyond for every event, and their food is hands down the best! Every event they make is happen timely and seamlessly! I highly recommend Cured Catering!

I started this business in college knowing exactly what I was meant to be and determined to create beautiful art for all of my amazing clients! I am a dog momma, daughter, sister, aunt and loving girlfriend. Dustin is my better half, he allows me to chase my dreams and follow my heart. Our free time consists of country drives in the sun and cold days cuddled on the couch with our pups - most likely watching Harry Potter (if I get to choose).

Investing in Kate to be our wedding photographer was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process. From our engagement photos to our wedding photos, Kate was extremely helpful and instrumental in the planning process, providing us guidance and insight, not to mention how incredible her assistant Amy and 2nd photographer were. Myself and my bridesmaids got ready at The Bridal Loft the is located in Kate's studio.... There are NOT enough words to express how incredible this location is and beyond accommodating. My hair and make up team had ample room to get all of us ready for our wedding day and our bridal party had so much room to relax and get ready! Did I mention the lighting and great areas for photos of us getting ready? Kate Spencer is undoubtably the best of the best and an incredible asset to the Illinois photography community.

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers

  • Florist
  • Starts at $350

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
If you really want to save money on florals, then go with Flower Moxie! Just a heads up, IT IS A LOT OF WORK, but they give you very clear email instructions of what to expect and there are MANY resources they provide through articles, videos, etc. I was mistaken in thinking that all I would have to do is arrange flowers in vases. You are actually cutting, cleaning and processing everything. We refused to spend money on flowers through a florist, but with Flower Moxie, we were able to incorporate some florals for a very reasonable price!
