Nothing can contain our excitement when we saw Nikki and Kevin’s sneak peeks 🥰

We had a wonderful time with such an amazing couple and seeing all of their plans come to life. The personalization was perfect - honey favors because they met on Bumble, a cocktail hour magician that was at the bar they first met up at, the table numbers as famous Chicago venues that Nikki’s former students painted… it was all so well-thought-out and fun! Not to mention the beautiful weather and the perfectly painted sunset. Truly a recipe for a lovely day!!! Thank you for letting us help bring everything together!!

The space and the story ❤️ We really love being able to help your venue come to life, but what is most important is that you can actually enjoy being in it instead of worrying about how it will all come together. If you’re buried in the logistics, you can’t truly be present with your family and friends.

We will make sure that your cake arrives and is refrigerated the proper amount of time, your decor is set up the way you want it, and your day flows smoothly so you can focus on what really matters - celebrating your love and starting your forever with firm roots. Shoot us a DM if you want this to be your experience too!
