In my dream of dreams I never could have imagined a more beautiful wedding. Being from Kansas City,…read morewe have very limited options when it comes to the an all-inclusive South Asian wedding decorating. You have to hire a separate draping company, linen company, florist/design, and lighting company. Drish Couture Events introduced to me to Shaadi Creations and there was no looking back after meeting Sonal and Mayank. I had ideas and a budget and Sonal and Mayank were able to create a dream wedding within our budget! At our initial meeting, Drish and I had laid out some inspirations for the Grah Shanti and Wedding but the reception was where I was the most confused after searching through endless Pinterest boards. When I mentioned Vintage Glamour, Sonal totally got what I was going for and immediately started showing me pictures and looks of ideas that encapsulated glamorous vintage. The mandap I had a picture of was a double mandap that had to be constructed from scratch at the actual venue all the way in Kansas City. They not only recreated the look but enhanced it with pops of color, floral cuffs and amber lighting that created a soft romantic glow. From the Grah Shanti was jewel toned Sabyasachi inspired. From the Grah Shanti to the wedding to the reception, Shaadi Creations took my breath away by the beauty ambience and splendid environment they created. Each event was unique and gorgeous and beyond my greatest expectations. People have said they have never seen such a beautiful wedding in Kansas City and this is all because of their creative genius and architectural design. I cannot express to you how wonderful it was to not have a single concern about the decorations being completed on time. They went above and beyond in every aspect. I'm waiting on the professional pictures but I will post pictures friends have sent!

From the first time meeting Nisar I knew that he would be a true delight to work with. His talent and vision was spot on to what we were looking for. We went with a elegant Parisian themed wedding reception with rich, swank colors, uplighting, floor to ceiling pipe and drape, crystal candelabras, gorgeous luxurious linens and much more! Shaadi Creations nailed ever aspect of this and beyond. With being a smaller wedding event planner myself, I never not trusted Nisar and his team...when I walked in that ballroom for the first time I was absolutely speechless. When guests walked into the room they were also speechless and felt like they were just warped into Paris for the wedding of the year. Words can not thank Nisar and his team for what they have done for my husband and I. We are forever grateful for their talent and hard work. Thank you Nisar for not only providing us with your talent but for giving us the wedding of our dreams!!

BEST experience at Rose Party Rentals. At first.. I wouldn't be saying that. Had a bad experience…read morewith one of their sales reps.. But then called again at a different time to speak to someone else and spoke to WENDY!!!! WOW what a complete gem that woman is!!! She helped me with absolutely everything and was so patient with my tedious questions. She gave me EXACTLY what I needed and even gave me her personal cell to contact at any time with any questions. She even answered my questions on her DAY OFF!! Every customer service rep NEEDS to be like Wendy!! She deserves a promotion, raise, all the above!! So grateful for her, almost went somewhere else if it wasn't for her! Ask for Wendy when you call Also, their tents and heating lamps are SO clutch!! I got a 20x30 tent with walls + 2 heating lamps and it kept the whole tent warm for hours!! So awesome.

Reserved a 24'x24' dance floor from Rose for a black tie event at an upscale restaurant. The…read morequality and condition of the dance floor was so poor that I had to send it back. There were gaps in the tiles that could have presented a trip and fall hazard to ladies in heels. I couldn't take that risk. So far, they do not want to give me any type of refund- full or partial. I will update this review. I do not recommend this company.

Add the smell of fires burning, the fresh snow, and the laughter of children - and i was transported to my childhood in MN. My only feedback was that there were areas that didn't get cleared, so they were inaccessible to the public. As they were listed in the attraction, I was disappointed to not be able to experience them. Especially when there was nothing at the beginning letting us know that parts were closed.

We had a great time visiting with family at the Cantigny Cocoa Cabanas a few days before Christmas…read more There are only a few cabanas by the outdoor skating rink & they are cute A frame structures with a fireplace inside & a fire pit outside with seats for 10 people. Each cabana has a server & you order foods & drinks (alcohol & non-alcoholic) & the hot cocoa is free. Kids & adults alike will enjoy this experience. Cabanas are $100-$300 for a 2 hour period & there is a $150 minimum food/beverage purchase. The kids had pizzas & chicken tenders & fries & adults had beer, espresso martinis, margarita & mules. It's pricey, but worth it for a holiday splurge for groups of 10. The kids ages 6-11 loved it.

What a fun performer. I came across him at the Park Ridge Kiwanis annual pancake breakfast, where…read morehe was doing some entertaining mostly for the kids but definitely for the adults as well. It's through him that I heard of the Central Street Busker Festival that took place the next day and his line was loooong! Most recently, we went to his show last week that the Mt. Prospect Public Library held for spring break. That was very very well attended, with a long line of folks waiting to get in (and that's with all of us registered to attend!), but the show was a lot of fun. He did a little magic, a little comedy, and some fun balloon tricks. This guy has been doing this all his adult life--unless that's also a joke and part of his act--but regardless, he's great at his job. I'm looking forward to seeing him again and my little one having the chance to pick her balloon creation on her own.

It's not just his talent with super fun and surprising balloon characters but his adaptive nature and outstanding personality, engaging everyone at the parties/events. I would absolutely recommend him for all types of occasions : private or big birthday parties, festivals, block parties, - anywhere there will be children!! He is one less thing at your party you need to worry about because he is a sure thing! Truly, he is a whole family favorite!!

I began working with Henna in November 2023 when planning my sister's wedding for the following…read moreSeptember. Over the course of 10 months, I spoke to Henna regularly where she told me about her planning services, day of coordination, and decor in extreme detail. She was reliable and understood what the vision was that my sister wanted for her wedding. She was quick to respond, transparent with pricing, and very accommodating to our budget. As we started exceeding our budget, Henna came up with multiple ideas to help cut costs and repurpose items to help us remain comfortable with our vision and pricing while also remaining true to the vision we had curated over the year of planning. Henna and her team exceeded our expectations and are so glad we went with her services when deciding on a vendor that we felt comfortable with. We are excited to use her services in the future.

They helped get me chairs, linen, and table decor for my party. Timely drop off and pick up. The whole thing was executed exactly the way I imagined. The team members who come to arrange are efficient and clean up after themselves. Will definitely be engaging their services again in the future.

DO NOT HIRE ASHLEY BLACK OR ONE MORE ROUND PUB FOR YOUR EVENT SHE WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND…read moreDISAPPEAR We hired her in June 2022 for our October 2022 wedding. We signed contracts and paid 90% of the total cost of the event, $3,163, which was a substantial part of our wedding budget, but it was important to us. 3 weeks before the wedding she informed us that she had been unable to find additional bartenders (which she never mentioned was becoming an issue at any point in time before that day) and cancelled our contract 21 days out from our wedding with a promise of refund. The week of our wedding, we discovered SHE NEVER REFUNDED OUR MONEY. By then, it was too late. She shut down her website, the business number, and the business email address. Per the contract and the receipt for payment, we discovered she had until the end of the month to pay us back. As of January 3, 2022 she has never provided a refund and we have had to involve our bank, square up and the authorities. All we wanted was a reliable bartender for our wedding. Now all we want is our money back to put this financially and emotionally stressful ordeal behind us.

Could not have nicer things to say about working with My Chef and Jamie Walsh for our wedding day…read morecatering. We met Jamie at our venue's vendor expo and were immediately impressed by their services, pricing, and vast food offerings. It was a no brainer to book with their group! We had our tasting a couple months before our wedding day; which is complimentary to the couple and a $50 charge for any additional guest to join. They have you select 8-10 appetizers, 2 salads, and 4 entrees to taste at their Naperville location. They also have displays of china, silverware, glasses and more to help couples select what aligns aesthetically for their special day. Jamie worked with us to make small modifications to their standard offerings to make the food exactly what we wanted! Our wedding day came and we were floored by the quality/presentation of food, level of detail in place settings, and service from all staff members. We had multiple guests say that this was some of the best wedding food they've had, steaks were not over cooked, and food tasted fresh. Jamie also let us add desserts a week out to reallocate money from a couple of guests who last minute were unable to attend. Their team was even nice enough to service items not purchased through their group: disposables for the late night snack, display and refilling of cupcakes, etc. Overall, their group went above and beyond for us under Jamie's leadership. Our tables looked great, our food was wonderful, and their team was fabulous. We truly appreciate all they've done for us and could not recommend them more!
