We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better DJ team for our wedding. The ceremony went perfectly from volume levels, sound cues, and mic levels. Then came the reception where they absolutely crushed it!! The whole day was handled perfectly. Micah was incredible at reading the room and keeping the dance floor full the entire night. Every transition was smooth, every song was a banger, and the momentum never dropped The mixing from start to finish was spot on with no awkward gaps or weird transitions. Since the wedding, we’ve had compliment after compliment from guests saying it was the best dance floor music they’ve ever experienced, which says a lot. We’re attaching some photos, and honestly they speak for themselves. You can see how packed the dance floor was and how much fun everyone was having all night!

“We planned a wedding for just over 1 year in a different time zone. From our first visit to the venue, we knew this would be the wedding of our dreams. Our wedding coordinator, Lisa, was always accommodating, gave us a very reasonable timeline and clear tasks to perform as well as due dates for payments, etc. We never felt overwhelmed by her requests and she kept us on track every step of the way. The last couple months were obviously more task intensive but due to her vast experience and clear communication we were never in doubt about what she expected from us. Additionally, during the planning process she provided multiple options for decor, venue arrangements, as well as vendor recommendations. We utilized the vendor recommendations for the photographer, florist, and cake, and each one exceeded our expectations. The photographer (Shane Lawrence Photography) was extremely professional and proficient, and produced quality photos (and video) that we will have for a lifetime. The florist (La Petite Fleuriste) created beautiful arrangements for the ceremony, gorgeous bouquets for the bridesmaids and bride, and assisted with center pieces for the reception tables. The cake (Val’s Cakes) was a breathtaking display of baking artistry and tasted incredible! The first time we saw the cake was during our entrance at the reception and we were blown away. Also, multiple guests commented to us about how delicious the cake was, a notable achievement for a wedding cake for one hundred people! The rehearsal itself went very smoothly and after only a couple iterations we left feeling confident the ceremony would be executed well. On the day of the wedding the suites were set up and ready for us including yummy snacks and beverages of our choice (must be purchased through the venue due to liquor laws). It was the perfect area to get ready. The garden was set up beautifully and we barely had to put thought into it! The appetizers at cocktail hour were delicious, the bartender was attentive and efficient throughout the night. We were pleasantly surprised at the dinner (our parents had to attend the tasting for us due to us living across the country). The chicken was moist, steak not overcooked and the sides were delicious! It all paired well together. Normally plated meals can be underwhelming, but the food at Aberdeen was exceptional. The wait staff was attentive, efficient and professional and there were adequate servers for the amount of tables we had. Throughout the entire night we felt supported by our coordinator and the entire staff, but they did not bother us with frivolous questions. Family and friends have been raving for days after the wedding about how nice the whole event was, and how good the food and drinks were. I wish I could replay the night again. I highly recommend Aberdeen Manor for a wedding or other special event.”

Meg Pearson Photo

Valparaiso, IN
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,000

I've been a photographer for almost 6 years - almost 3 years FULL TIME! As a kid/teen, concerts were (and still are) my home. I was gifted a point and shoot camera for Christmas one year and to remember the moment, I'd bring it to every concert I went to. Eventually, I'd bring it to every sleepover and event. Snapping photos has always been important to me. I'm sure 12 year old me would absolutely LOSE it if she knew this would be the start of something amazing. 6 years in - 75+ weddings of all sizes and hundreds of love stories documented and no signs of stopping anytime soon.

“Meg and her second photographer were so wonderful to have on our wedding day. I’m almost a year late with this review, but better late than never. Speaking of which, Meg was right on time, even though it was a really long drive to Peoria from Indiana, and I appreciated that so much! She made our special day so much greater than it would have been without her. I look at the photos she took at least once a week and shed a few tears at the beauty of it! I was originally drawn to her shooting and editing style and she captured the rustic and warm vibes of our wedding perfectly! She’s so friendly and kind, and as long as I’m in Illinois, I would definitely book her for any more of my photography needs!”

“We are SO thankful we met Stephen at a bridal expo back in January; he was warm, professional, and genuinely invested in making our wedding day vision come to life! Having both DJ & photobooth services in one made planning so much easier. His online planning tool was a lifesaver for organizing our music, timeline, and vibe. He stuck to our playlist perfectly and kept the dance floor alive until the last minute! Stephen was also amazing with the photobooth; he allowed us to use our own backdrop, helped customize the design, & even provided a photo guestbook on the day of (which saved us when we accidentally forgot ours!). He also sent all the digital photobooth photos to us right away and our guests LOVED them. On the wedding day, he went above & beyond helping coordinate vendors, handling last-minute changes calmly, & making sure everything ran smoothly. Stephen made such a big difference on our wedding day and we’re so grateful for his professionalism, flexibility, passion, and talent. If you’re looking for a DJ who also offers photobooth services, is easy to work with, & genuinely cares about making your day amazing–Stephen is your guy! We can’t recommend him enough!!”

“Bill and John did a wonderful job for mine and my Husbands special day. From the very first phone call, Bill was very informative and reassuring that they would get the job done to fit our vision. They even came to the rehearsal (small extra cost) to make sure all music cues were exactly how I wanted them which was great as many DJs had told me “no.” It really helped ease my nerves knowing things were well executed and ran through the day before. Throughout the planning process, Bill was very responsive to any questions I had via email or extra phone calls. I did have a change I added in last minute so our dog could be apart of reception announcements and they didn’t even flinch at the last minute change of plans. They nailed it. They played great songs, surprised us with a gift after our first dance, and even kept bringing my girls and I fans cause they had us dancing all night. We cannot thank both Bill and John enough for helping us execute our big day! -The O’Havers”

We had our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception at Meyer’s Castle and each piece came perfectly together. The newly redecorated bridal suite is gorgeous and my bridal party and I felt like royalty getting ready. The florals and gardens were stunning and there is an Instagram worthy photo spot around every corner. Our coordinator, Eva, did a great job setting up all of our decor and was very communicative throughout the planning process. Eva and the MC team accommodated everything we wanted to include on our special day and our guests had nothing but wonderful things to say about our wedding.

“Hannah is the absolute best investment for your wedding day. In honesty, I was a bride who felt she did not need a wedding coordinator. Engaged for 2 years and felt as though I had time. I came across Hannah through a college friend and she was my best decision!! Hannah executed every detail as I had hoped. She decorated my venue space, arranged place cards and provided so much support leading up to the big day. She handled things I will never know happened. Her goal was to ease any stress because lets me honest being a bride IS stressful. You spend so much time hoping for the day to go as planned. For you, your husband, family and friends to enjoy this event you spent hours working on. But Hannah, she did everything to ensure I was present on this special day. She reeled me in at times I needed it and helped me enjoy my day by bringing me and my husband drinks, making me an appetizer plate & cake, saving me late night food so I could enjoy dancing!! Most importantly, Hannah fixed my broken heels! I had no backup plan, 30 minutes before my first dance, Hannah found out what happened and safety pinned my shoes. After that, I KNEW she was my life saver. Like a built in best friend that day. To Hannah, I owe you a big thank you for being there when I needed you most. I had two excellent maid of honors who were with me the whole day and I still needed your help. You helped so much all my friends are asking for your info. I can’t recommend you enough, thank you!!!”

Amber made it so easy by guiding me through the process and sharing her expertise when I was one minute away from calling the whole thing off to get a courthouse wedding instead. Our day was absolutely gorgeous and we are so, so glad we didn’t go the courthouse route! Amber helped me prepare everything early so I didn’t have the stress the month before trying to tie up loose ends. The day of coordination from her and her team was an absolute dream.

I love to create… I’m in my happy place when I’m able to create. My career in floral design started while I was still in college obtaining a business degree. Like a lot of college students, I spent my summer interning in an office environment…and quickly realized that wasn’t how I wanted to live my life. I needed something different, something that would allow me to more fully utilize my creativity and desire to design. When I returned to campus in the fall, I started working part time at a small floral shop. It wasn’t long before I knew I’d found my love and my passion.

“Working with La Petite Fleuriste made our wedding day flawless. Lori was so easy to work with from start to finish—she answered our questions right away and gave us helpful advice whenever we needed it. She nailed our color scheme and brought our vision to life in a way that exceeded what we imagined. What really set her apart was that she handled both setup and delivery, which took so much stress off our plate on the big day. The flowers were absolutely beautiful and professional looking in every single shot. We'd recommend La Petite Fleuriste to any couple looking for a florist who truly cares about making their day special.”

“Fair Oaks Farms was a nice venue for our wedding, though their communication style was a bit minimal on the actual wedding day. The quality of their work and value was very nice - the servers were attentive and helpful throughout the evening. However, when our official reception time was up at 11pm, the staff turned on all the lights and rushed us to gather our belongings and vacate the reception hall immediately. This made the end of our special night feel a bit abrupt and hurried. Overall, Fair Oaks Farms provided a pleasant setting for our wedding, but could improve the communication and transition at the end of the night.”

“I’m not someone who enjoys planning, so having Love Story Weddings was an absolute lifesaver! Jelena was organized and on top of every detail, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. She booked our vendors quickly and kept us on schedule without ever making me feel rushed or out of the loop. She thoughtfully helped us incorporate both our Serbian and American traditions, creating a day that felt like us. I can’t recommend her enough — our wedding day was everything we hoped for!”

I take great pride- and an immense amount of pleasure- in working with brides. Imagine being able to redo your own wedding time and time and time again- I treat each client’s event the way I would take care of my own. I own the initiative down to the smallest detail. If it’s not good enough for me it certainly isn’t good enough for you! Every couple deserves to see their vision brought to life in the best way possible, and have a sense of accomplishment at the end of the night. I love being able to bring you over the finish line strong and leave you with lasting memories!

“This review is for Jessica Contreras day of coordinator. We hired Jessica to coordinate our wedding and we are so glad we did! Jessica went above and beyond to make our wedding go smoothly from the decorations to following the timeline of the reception and ceremony. She even assisted with handling difficulties that arose with our rental hall. She’s a great problem solver while also doing it in a calm demeanor. Me and my family are forever grateful for her services would highly recommend for any event planning!”
