I haven't seen all the photos yet, but Peter was just an awesome photographer to work with. He is attentive and approachable, plus he worries about the timing/schedule so he can jam pack all the must have pictures in! I loved working with him and while on my honeymoon, he sent me a preview slideshow and it was spectacular. I'm picking up the rest of the photos later this week, but I'm sure they turned out great!

I used Anjeli Flowers because I was an acquaintance of the owner's family. Marlen and her mom work together in this floral shop and are a great team. Marlen does most of the communication with the clients and I showed her my flower collage of what I wanted and she executed perfectly!!!

I wanted peonies and hydranculas in my bouquet and neither are in season! She called all her wholesalers to get what I wanted and offered to it me AT COST! Honestly, I think she only profited on the bridesmaids and boutinerres! All were wonderfully maid and beautiful!

Also, I did ALOT of research on florists and by using Anjeli I cut my budget by 30%. They were awesome!

Overall - we had great communication with Rev. Bob. His services include constant communication via written response (he asks the couple to fill out a survey about your relationship), phone calls, and emails. Anytime we had questions, he was there to answer. Also, for our service, it included a wedding consultation to just go over any concerns before the wedding. We were really comfortable talking to Rev. Bob.

Then on the wedding date, I think it just started a little off when we forgot to give him the wireless mic. No one could hear him in the beginning and it was a little bit too long. Otherwise, the content was special and endearing.

This place helped transport my wedding party ALL over Chicago - starting from UIC, West Loop, Humboldt Park, North Ave Beach, Michigan Ave, Grant Park, and finally Chinatown. Whenever my photographer said, STOP, this would be a great stop, our limo driver was able to accomadate quickly. Also, most of our bridal party stayed in the limo for some of shots - and the limo driver made sure everyone was well quenched with beer and champagne. :) Also, there wasn't a wedding/party booked after us, so we used the limo for another hour at $130/hour fee. Great!!! Would completely recommend and the limo is a great value compared to other limo services in the area.

Kelly did an AWESOME job for my wedding.. Honestly I was a bit hesistent after the trial, because I wasn't sure what I wanted. She suggested some stuff for my hair/makeup, but after she left, I changed some items before the actual day of the wedding.

Knowing the changes - she executed beautifully. I'm Chinese and everyone at my wedding asked who did my hair/makeup and asked if was another asian person. When I said no, they were blown away that someone could handle diversification! It was beautiful and I would not change one thing about how I looked! :) Thank you so much for everything Kelly!

Oh one more thing - she's VERY affordable. I looked at other onsite makeup/hair options and there are usually two things that happen.
1. You would have to get two different people to do your hair and makeup
2. They are charging a whole lot more plus you need to hit a minimum
With Kelly that isn't the case. She can handle both plus she only did hair and makeup for me and my mom and was completely ok with that.
