We hired Mireille for our daughter's birthday party and we're beyond thrilled with her work. Her designs stand out from any face painting artist we've seen, her ability to work with children (we had as young as 2.5 at the party) and sweet nature were so perfect to coax even the shyest of children out of their shell to sit in her chair while she glammed them up all while chit chatting away with them with such kindness and patience. The body art was easy to remove, zero reactions even for my daughter who has quite sensitive skin and at the end of a party being able to effortlessly brush out the awesome glitter in her hair was a true blessing for a tired parent post party hosting. We truly cannot wait to work with she and her team again in the future and can see ourselves booking them throughout the years to come. Very well priced and worth every penny! Thanks again for helping sprinkle a little extra magic at our party.

Everything was laid out and set up so particularly and placed so well! The way Nadia lined up the stars and put the Pom Pom decals behind the number 6 to really make it pop.

Fantastic experience working with Sage Event Space and Tiffany Nesbitt for our WNBA All-Star…read moreCommunity Health Walk. Tiffany was responsive, creative, and incredibly supportive throughout the planning process. On a tight timeline, she helped bring a custom photo activation to life that added a welcoming energy and became a standout feature of the event. Tiffany also coordinated beautiful balloon décor throughout our event space at Jackson Park - not the easiest site for set-up! We appreciated her flexibility, professionalism, and can-do attitude, and would gladly work with her again. Highly recommend!

JPW productions provided a fantastic service for my wedding, and I couldn't be more satisfied with…read morehow professional and accommodating Jon & CO was. Before the big day, we were able to plan (music-wise) everything that was important to us, and the packet that you fill out ensures no details are missed. My guests enjoyed the photo booth, and we received a memory book of all the photos taken that night, so if it's in your budget I highly recommend it. In short, JPW Productions should be your choice for any/all DJ needs. Thanks again, guys!

Jon Wise was the DJ for our June 2019 wedding, and he did such a great job! We had our reception at…read moreCog Hill Golf & Country Club in Lemont, and the venue recommended him as one of their favorite DJs who plays there often for weddings. A family friend whose daughter got married at Cog Hill a few years ago used Jon Wise, and they strongly recommended him. So, after we booked our venue, JPW Productions was actually the first vendor we hired! We were really busy with last-minute wedding planning, so we were not able to fill out the music preference questionnaire until a few days before the wedding. (Yes, it was honestly insanity.) Jon was SO patient with us despite how last-minute we are. He has a great personality and didn't stress us out at all on the day of the wedding (even though it was totally within his right to do so because we didn't give him the flash drive of a certain version of a song until the day of!). Even though we filled out a list of songs we wanted played, I gave him creative control to play songs that would get people out on the dancefloor. And he did just that! Even though we only had under 140 people at the wedding, the dancefloor was hopping. We got feedback from guests that they loved the variety in the songs the DJ played. Jon did a great job of checking in with us and making sure the speeches were timed how we wanted them to be. We really appreciated it. Thank you for helping make our wedding such a success!

We were referred to Lofendo Flowers through Blake and Lamb Funeral Home, and we could not be more…read moregrateful. We were not familiar with florists in the area and needed something unique and meaningful for a wake arrangement. Lofendo Flowers had a beautiful square wreath with a photo center, and we requested something very special: a photo that included the surviving twin sister Flo, her late brother Ray, and her newly deceased twin brother Frank. Even though this was an unusual request, the owner personally called me over a holiday weekend to make sure it could be done. Despite concerns that the printer might not even be open, they went above and beyond to ensure the arrangement was ready. On the day of the wake, I received the call that the wreath was completed, and it was absolutely stunning. This small business truly cared about making a ninety-five-year-old surviving twin happy, and that compassion and effort meant so much to the family. Lofendo Flowers offers incredible custom arrangements and unmatched service. If you are looking for a florist who will treat your order with care and dedication, I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you to Lofendo Flowers and your team. You went above and beyond, and we are deeply grateful.

I asked around some friends and family, and Gatherings was among the recommended options. I sent in a note indicating my wife likes, "loose, organic looking arrangements with some unusual flowers." The next day, I got a call from Lisa. She was more than happy to help. She asked if I had any more requests, and I just asked her to make something that she herself would like. When the arrangement arrived, my wife could not have been more thrilled. She loved the variety of flowers, and the feeling of a personal touch that had gone into selecting and arranging them. As a husband who isn't skilled himself at picking out flowers, I highly recommend Lisa and Gatherings.
