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!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about the glam team that made me, my bridesmaids, and my mom feel absolutely gorgeous on my wedding day. Selena has been with me through it all—my engagement shoot, courthouse wedding, trial, and finally the big day. She is truly phenomenal at what she does. Selena has such a great eye for what looks good, while also listening to suggestions and making sure her clients feel comfortable and confident. She doesn’t just “do makeup”—she creates a look that enhances natural beauty, lasts all day, and makes you feel your absolute best. Every time she worked with me, I felt like the most beautiful version of myself. Jeanette is a true hair artist. Her skills are top tier—she has the hands and vision to bring any hairstyle to life and somehow make it even better than the inspiration photo. She did my hair for the trial, and when I wasn’t sure if it was exactly what I wanted, she was so quick to suggest adjustments and work with me until I felt 100% confident. On my wedding day, my hair was everything I dreamed of and more—elegant, secure, and perfect from start to finish. Katie is so sweet. She actually did my wedding hair for my courthouse ceremony, and on the big day she took care of my bridesmaids’ hair and makeup as well as my mom’s. She made sure each one of them looked stunning while still feeling like themselves. The girls couldn’t stop talking about how much they loved their looks and how comfortable Katie made them feel during the process. And a special thank you to Colette, who handled all of the scheduling. She was so accommodating with my needs and always willing to adjust things when plans shifted. Having someone so organized and flexible made the whole process stress-free, which is invaluable when planning a wedding. This team went above and beyond to make us look and feel beautiful. Their professionalism, kindness, and talent made such a difference on my wedding day, and I am so grateful for each of them.

Specializing in both photography and cinematic films, we preserve your day frame by frame, blending artistry with storytelling. From the smallest details to the grandest celebrations, our goal is to create timeless images and films that let you relive the magic for a lifetime.

From the bottom of my heart, I will always be grateful for the way they captured our day. Our wedding was small, just close family and friends, but they made it look like the most magical celebration ever. I didn’t even notice half of the little details until I saw the pictures later, like how my husband looked at me during the vows or how my best friend wiped away a tear. The editing was done with so much care it feels timeless, not trendy. The video is something I’ll keep forever, and I can’t wait to show it to our kids one day. They were punctual, kind, and really felt like part of the family that day. What I loved is that they didn’t rush us, they worked around the flow of the day while still capturing everything important. I’ve never felt so beautiful and natural in front of a camera before. They gave us memories that will last long after the flowers and cake are gone.

Michelle is one of the absolute best makeup artists I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. She’s creative, professional, and she makes you feel beautiful throughout the process. NOT ONLY does she have the incredible ability of doing makeup for others, she also has her own makeup line F.A.C.E. , which is nontoxic and amazing. She’s great with kids as well. Michelle is all around incredible, you won’t regret booking with her.

"I Do" Weddings, Ltd. 

5.0

  • Officiant
  • Offers 8 ceremony types
  • Serves Wood Dale, 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.

Rev. Phil delivered an unforgettably touching, humorous, and unique ceremony that our guests raved about. When we first found Rev. Phil, we didn't have any specific vision for our ceremony - we assumed that since we were looking for a secular ceremony that it would be bare-boned. But after speaking to Rev. Phil (who was glad to perform a secular ceremony!) and watching the love story videos on his website, we clicked immediately and took the plunge. We did go beyond our original budget, but it was so worth it.

The Local Petaler

  • Florist
  • Serves Wood Dale, IL

The Local Petaler is a wedding and event floral design studio based in St. Charles, IL. The business started as a part-time venture just over 4 years ago in my mom's garage and quickly blossomed (awful pun) into a full-fledged career. With at least 100 weddings produced under The Local Petaler and countless others worked on as a freelance designer for other companies, I've done a little bit of everything at every venue. You're in good hands!

Jen absolutely stunned me with the flowers she showed up with on my wedding day. She made my vision a reality, and then some. She was mindful of our budget, had creative ideas that I never would have thought of, listened deeply, and was so kind and thoughtful when nudging me away from bad ideas :-) I would absolutely recommend her.

We cannot say enough good things about The Brix and their team. From our very first tour to the end of our wedding night, they were knowledgeable and supportive. We chose some of our vendors from their recommended list, which was super helpful to have! Once you book your date, you are given a plethora of useful information. There were so many times we referenced this during the planning process. On the day of they are super helpful when your vendors get there. Their team opened the curtains for everyone to walk down the aisle, cleared the card box, and lined up everyone for our grand entrance. Everything about The Brix is phenomenal. If you are looking for a venue, this is your place!!!
