What a beautiful place for a wedding! Two of our good friends got married here this August. The…read morechapel and reception area share the same parking lot, making it very convenient for guests. The chapel had plenty of space for guests. The food in the reception was fantastic and the staff were very accommodating to dietary restrictions and guests' requests. CDC precautionary measures were in place and enforced. I would definitely recommend this venue!

Tiffany and Karen are the dream team…read more They work in a great partnership where one person reviews the details and the other can see the picture. Tiffany and Karen took over my event six weeks before the wedding. In that time, they reviewed plans with me, encouraged me and communicated in great detail with myself and vendors. They were able to execute my vision in such an elegant way. This wedding review cannot possibly contain enough words to completely express our appreciation. When it came time to select a wedding planner, we are so thankful that we recieved Events by Tiffany R as a referral. Tiffany and Karen planned our wedding as if they were envisioning an event for a family member or a friend. We are still in awe when we look back on everything they did for us, before and during the wedding. Without their help our special day would not have been picturesque event we dreamed of. I was very specific in my desires for my wedding and our planners tried as hard as possible to make that vision come to light. The decorations were superb. They were flexible with our families and our timelines. Their planning, preparation, and attention to detail was amazing. We appreciate them more than words can say. And a huge thanks for their thoughtful wedding gift of a surprise flower arrangement that was waiting for us. We thank them for being our wedding planner and coordinator. Would recommend Events by Tiffany R!

From the initial consultation Tiffany invited a welcoming and supportive space for me. Tiffany allowed my thoughts to flow and helped my vision come true.

(And might I add, everything was completed virtually until the day of our event)

This place is awesome. I stopped by for a last minute gift for my former boss, and am so lucky I…read moredid. Ended up with a really unique vase with a wide variety of fresh hand-picked flowers- the selection there was great despite it being 3p on a Saturday! The flowers themselves were fantastic quality- my former boss specifically commented on how long they lasted. The price was really reasonable considering how elaborate the gift was. The store also sells other cool home goods like candles and essential oils, all curated from local businesses. The staff there were friendly, knowledgeable, and had a great ability to balance my preferences with their expertise, without making me feel either overruled or unsure of my choices. They gift wrapped my arrangement beautifully and with great care. What a fantastic addition to Halsted and the Bridgeport community. I'll be stopping by for all my floral needs from now on!

DJ Persist was flat out amazing…read more We found out about him at my wife's Barrister's Ball when she was still attending Depaul Law a few years ago. He had the entire room dancing all night so we just we went up to him and got his card. It was still in my wallet 2 years later, so we called him and set everything up. We decided to get married at a restaurant called Carnivale and rocked it! His name is Jesse. He's very organized, VERY professional and VERY helpful. We told him what we wanted and he delivered with ease. He will offer tons of suggestions to make your wedding as special as possible and he didn't disappoint. In a sense, he kind of works as a day of coordinator to keep things on schedule. We LOVED him. His cost was $1000 which was pretty good for his service. He doesn't charge for working over a few extra hours and his basic package includes his state of the art sound system, 2 wireless microphones (which one did temporarily stop working during me reading my vows but he made up for that with his service), access to this really cool website that allows you to create a timeline for your event, add music that you want to play or don't want to play, and set music to play at certain points during the wedding. We were so confident in Jesse that we paid him in full up front but he only requires I believe at least 25% deposit and the rest before or at your event. We got nothing but positive feedback from our guests about him. One of our friends was shocked that he wore a tux because DJs typically don't do that. The music was the best hits of the 90s, early 2000s and whatever else we wanted to hear. There was even a woman there with a leg brace on that refused to sit down because the music and mixes were just so good! We'd definitely hire DJ Persist again and we are so glad we picked him. If you are contemplating, do it. You will not be disappointed!

We were looking for a bilingual English/Spanish DJ that was a native speaker, which was important to us, and a DJ that was knowledgeable of English and Spanish music and blended them well. DJ Persist was our unicorn and we're so glad we found him!! He did a phenomenal job of doing all of the above, paying attention to detail, mindful of our requests/musical personalities, did an awesome job reading the room/energy and progression of the night, keeping us on task and so much more! DJ Persist is warm and had great energy! We felt so comfortable with him and were confident from day one that he was going to do an excellent job on our wedding- and he did! He surpassed all expectations and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Throughout the planning process and day of he was great with communication, organization, artistry and creativity! We appreciate him working with our vendors and day of coordinator! DJ Persist, THANK YOU SO MUCH! You are awesome and, as you saw, once the dance floor opened up, I couldn't stop dancing! We cannot recommend you enough! Below you'll find a picture from the photo booth. The photo booth, the attendant, the quality of the equipment and ways to personalize it were great! THANKS AGAIN, Jesse!
