Sis And Me Bakery was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding cakes and desserts. Their communication was always quick, reliable, and easy - they responded to our inquiries promptly and provided helpful guidance throughout the process. The quality of their work surpassed our expectations, with cakes and cookies that were not only incredibly delicious but also beautifully executed. When we showed them an inspiration photo for our tiki-themed groom's cake, they said they had never done anything like it before but were confident they could create it, and the final result was truly amazing. Sis And Me Bakery delivered the cakes right on time and even helped us set them up, including adding the cake flowers we had provided. We were blown away by the incredible value and attention to detail they provided, and our guests raved about how delicious the cakes and cookies were. We highly recommend Sis And Me Bakery for any couple looking for an exceptional wedding dessert experience.

Working with Brittany and The Better Half Photography is effortless on the customer’s end. Every single moment I wanted captured was done so beautifully and in a non disruptive way. Brittany was always there but was never in the way. She was encouraging, uplifting, and comforting to everyone. She was so great at including every single guest in the moments she captured. I never had to worry about anything with her behind the camera. I can’t speak highly enough for how wonderful she is at what she does. I highly recommend reaching out to her for any of your photography needs.

I do not have enough words to profess how incredible Blake was as our DJ. During the planning process he was extremely relatable, fun , and respectful of our wishes. He made great recommendations and eased any concerns we had about our big day. He also took the time to respond to us while he was on vacation and sent us an advanced shortened version of our first dance song so that we could practice our first dance. On the day of, Blake blew EVERYONE away. My husband was very concerned about the size of my dress while dancing so Blake ran us through the song early so we could practice before the reception began. His instincts as a DJ were SPOT-ON! Every song he played in the order he played them contributed to the absolute best party. Our tastes are a little all over the place (country, classic rock, oldies) and Blake was able to mix them all in and give us a night to truly remember. He was fantastic on the aux during introductions and kept our rowdy crowd going for hours and hours. What might've been most impressive is that he managed to get all 200 guests out of the ballroom in less than two minutes so that we could have our "last dance". We have received nothing but rave reviews from our guests and my husband and I still talk weeks later about how incredible Blake was. An amazing surprise is that he's very active on social media and took a ton of pictures and videos of the dance floor throughout the night that we'll now get to keep forever! Do not hesitate for a SECOND to hire Blake - it'll be one of the best choices you make for your wedding day. We truly could not have imagined the night without him!!!

Cat MacDonald Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Elkhart, IN

I’m Cat, a wedding and family photographer based in Northwest Indiana, serving couples across Southwest Michigan and Chicago. With 15+ years of experience and a BFA in Photography, I create timeless, heartfelt images that blend elegant portraiture with candid storytelling. My couples describe me as both their photographer and their calm guide, capturing every moment while keeping the day stress-free. I take on a limited number of weddings each year to ensure each love story receives my full attention.

I'm almost at a loss for words to describe how phenomenal our experience with Cat was. Our wedding day really would not have been the same without her and her team. I happened upon Cat when our DJ tagged her in an Instagram post and I immediately fell in love with her work. Her photos are so perfectly vibrant and full of life, and I knew she'd capture our special day perfectly. Her communication was always fast, kind, and informative. All of my questions were quickly answered and she was a -huge- help in getting our Day-Of timeline nailed down. I was also SO thankful for her during our engagement shoot. My poor fiance (now husband) was on call that day, and we ended up having to cut the shoot short as a result. Cat was able to get some of our new favorite pictures of us anyway, and she was so easy to work with. I want to give her, Bethany, and Jo a very special thank you for everything they did on our wedding day. As a plus size bride I was very anxious about being photographed at all, but they made me feel like a fairy princess and I'm SO in love with our pictures. They are stunning photos and we definitely shed a few happy tears over them, but aside from that, it was really just special to have these amazing humans at our wedding. Their positivity and laughter was infectious, and we received a ton of compliments on how wonderful they all were. One million out of ten, highly recommend 3

Words can’t express how tremendously thankful we are for this beautiful couple! They did an amazing job, not just on the day but all the planning before hand. They helped us with everything! And our day was so magical because of them. They did a great job being part of the action but not feeling like they were in the action if that makes sense. They made me feel good when I having a bit of a panic attack before my main entrance. They helped when our cake was still sitting there uncut from the staff late in the evening. They were just so kind and carried such good energy. It was just also such a cool touch having our untouched photos playing during the wedding! Everyone absolutely loved it. I would 100% recommend them and already have for a few people!

Choosing Sarah Sage as our wedding photographer was THE best decision my husband (Luke) and I made for our wedding. We loved her SO much that we each decided to write our own review :). Not only is she a very talented photographer, but she also truly cares about each and every one of her couples, which makes her different from any other vendor you will have on your wedding day. We can truly say she is a friend after working with her for our engagement and now wedding. She was super accommodating and compassionate when it came to re-arranging our wedding due to the COVID-19 pandemic. While we had to postpone until next year for our big reception, she was willing to drive to Wisconsin for the day to cover our ceremony and some of our “mini-reception” of our wedding day this year. She went above and beyond on our wedding day, not only arriving early to make sure everything was in order, but also even staying later to make sure that we had the most amazing photos. Sarah also gets your wedding photos back to you in record time—we had sneak previews the next day and she had our whole album completed in a few weeks (faster than any of my other friends which took months). The quality of her photos has far exceeded our expectations as well. If you’re looking for a photographer (and friend) that will make your wedding day and the days leading up to your wedding a breeze, then think no more, hire Sarah. We would hire her again in a heartbeat! Thanks Sarah for your passion of photography and the amazing memories that you have provided us with your photos!

From its historical beginnings as a stoic munitions depot, The Armory experienced a beautiful transformation to showcase a sophisticated ballroom, classy built-in bar and impressive commercial kitchen. Original element of the 1928 Armory construction and subsequent Newman Recreations Center were incorporated into the even space renovation to provide the perfect blend of past and present.Iron-barred doors used to secure armers and thick concrete walls reinforced with brick to accommodate the National Guard Armory and shooting range lend a rustic industrial aesthetic. Wood from the recreation center bleachers line the dramatic bar and the orginial hardwood floor was dressed up to grace the ballroom. The vaulted timber ceilings and exposed truss work allow the dazzling period chandeliers an opportunity to lend an air of elegance to the urban decor. Charm abounds in the union of classic architecture with a modern flair.

  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $400
  • Serves Elkhart, IN

When, I was eight, I announced to my parents, “I want to play the harp.” Their wisely cautious response was to give me a year of piano lessons! But once I got my fingers on strings, there was no looking back. Now I own six harps and play professionally for weddings, churches, senior care as well as arranging and recording. By mixing my years of classical training with my love of different genres I get to help people make memorable events with beautiful music. Meet me and the harps at my website.

Anna was an absolute dream to work with and a true highlight of our daughter’s wedding day. Her harp music added an unparalleled level of elegance and beauty to our lakeside ceremony. Every note she played was flawless and filled the air with an enchanting atmosphere that our guests can’t stop raving about. From our initial communication to the day of the event, Anna was energetic, interested, professional, accommodating, and clearly passionate about her music. She worked with us to customize the playlist, incorporating our special requests seamlessly into her repertoire. From Star Wars to Taylor…..Anna’s performance, delightful personality and contribution to the ceremony was exceptional. If you’re looking for a talented musician who will elevate your event to something truly magical, look no further than Anna Hagen. Her performance was worth every penny and more. Highly recommended!

We met with them multiple times on the property to go over everything wedding related. We live over 2 hours away and this place was worth the drive every single time! I could not recommend Rush Lakes enough to anyone looking for a wedding venue, special occasion, reunion, family gathering, bridal shower, baby shower, etc. We also worked with a handful of vendors recommended by Logan that have done events at Rush Lakes before, so the process was so incredibly easy! Being able to spend the weekend with our pups, friends, and family before and after our wedding day made it so much more special too. Being able to have our dogs be a part of our day meant everything to us and Rush Lakes made that possible. The whole property is stunning, there is not one bad spot for photos! Everything was perfect and I could talk highly about Rush Lakes for days on end. THE PERFECT VENUE!!! I miss it every single day.

I can’t even explain how special my wedding day was at The Berry Farm. From the outdoor space by the lake to the beautiful glass garage doors, it truly feels like a fairytale. Not only is the space stunning but Chris and Shanda were there to help me every step of the planning process, always being so genuine. With the added features of the harvest room and their amazing in house chef, this place is a full package deal. I highly recommend and am so thankful I forever get to have such special memories at The Berry Farm!

Constructed in 1871 by Bavarian immigrant Philip H. Zorn Jr., Barrelhouse The Venue resides on the historic Zorn campus. As an annex to the brewery, Barrelhouse The Venue would manufacture beer barrels to house fresh beer prior to distribution around Northwest Indiana. Though unoccupied now, the original ice-house, brew-house, and malting building still stand across the street, a reminder of the dream Philip Zorn brought with him to America.
