Fierce Productions We are the most creative event coordination and production company in Chicago. We turn your special event into a story that celebrates you and makes you shine.

The results are one of a kind, experiential weddings and events that make YOU unforgettable. Fierce Productions was founded by Laura Reitsma aka LK Fierce in 2016, after 10 years of working in the Chicago Theater and Event scene as an actress, director, producer and Event Planner. Laura is Cuban American (actualmente aprendiendo Español) from Miami, Florida. After planning her own wedding, several

parties, galas and theatrical productions, Laura decided to start her own event production company. For years, Laura has used the word Fierce as kind of a catch phrase. Fierce is such a FUN word. Try it. Fierce. It's a word of strength and tenacity. Over time, her friend's gave her the nickname: LK Fierce. When it came time to start a business, she couldn't think of a better word to name it after. Who wouldn't want their Event to be Fierce?

Here's a little bit of green to grace your feed so you don't get pinched this St. Patrick's Day. 🍀

This was an intimate and earthy wedding inspired heavily by the stained glass windows at the 2nd Presbyterian Church in the South Loop. We made sure to capture the colors, textures, and the scenery of the windows through the design. Not to mention the bouquet was a gorgeous cascading arrangement.

Throwback to this moody, succulent, geometric, elopement. 🌱🏳️‍🌈🪻

This was a lovely wedding filled with non-traditional elements to celebrate love. For example, the couple exchanged succulent bracelets instead of rings, and they developed their own sand pouring tradition by pouring rainbow sugar instead. It was a gorgeous intimate day. 💖

A blush, lush, cherry blossom themed wedding. 🌸

The couple wanted the perfect blend of Asian and Filipino wedding traditions in their ceremony. When it came to design, to showcase their love of flowers and nature we all came up with Japanese cherry blossoms to be the root in the decor. Everything came together so gorgeously, and glimmered when the golden sunset sparkled through the windows.

Throwback to this colorful wedding we planned at Garfield Park Conservatory. 💐🌴

The couple knew they wanted a fierce wedding, and when asked what fierce meant to them: "As I told my future mom-in-law when trying to describe something.... "SH'BAM!!!"

Well, SH'BAM! Their wedding had a gorgeous array of colors, tropical greenery, and mismatched tablescapes giving it a perfect quirky quality.

Add some tropical passion to your feed 🍍🍋‍🟩🌺

(To this day we still love this styled shoot. As a Latina owned business it was so magical to have a day surrounded by other amazing Latinx vendors! The theme was “Cuban/Puerto Rican because owner Laura is Cuban, and lived in a Puerto Rican community. This photo shoot was a way for her to embrace her heritage and community).

Here's something a little moody to grace your feed 🍃🌸✨

This gorgeous brick venue was transformed into an overgrown forest. .and.bouquets did a magical job at decorating the grand staircase with greenery, and creating the gorgeous hanging floral piece to act as the perfect addition to the ceremony.

The subtle pinks gave the entire design some gorgeous pops, textures, and earthy qualities. It truly was a romantic wedding. 💕

Not to be dramatic…

…but we love how this fundraiser gala turned out. The up-lights added so much color and dimension to the event, and the balloon structures added fun texture to the space.

Goes to show you can elevate your event with “simple” tools such as lights, balloons, drapery, and brick walls.

✨ That's a WRAP on our Fierce 2024. ✨

2024 was a long, stressful year...but it was also one of the most exciting with some of our biggest events! It was also the most profitable year even with Owner Laura fighting breast cancer, and being a recent mother. 💕

We thank all the amazing couples, clients, and vendors for the incredible year and opportunities. We are very grateful for the amazing Fierce Team that keeps us going.

Looking forward to the exciting events we already have lined up in 2025!
