For the past 2 years, I have given a presentation about various facets about serial killer, Ted…read moreBundy, for the annual Dark History and HorrorCon. I wasn't sure what to expect when I was introduced to Timothy, from Absent State. He was on the premises in order to film various presentations. I shouldn't have been nervous about working with Timothy because he was very good at his job and easy to work with. When discussing how I wanted him to film me, he listened and offered feedback. When I received the final edit of my show, I couldn't have been happier. Timothy captured my best angles and was able to filter out a great deal of crosstalk that was coming in from outside of the room. When I return to Illinois, I look forward to seeing what Absent State will have available to make me sound my very best for future audiences on YouTube and beyond!

She made the entire session capturing our family and German Shepard feel effortless, which really shows in the final photos, couldn't be more pleased! The attention to detail, creativity, and ability to capture genuine moments were outstanding! The turnaround time was quick, as well! I would highly recommend Gabrielle to anyone looking for beautiful, high-quality photos and a great overall experience!

The chairs we rented were absolutely beautiful and were actually cheaper than other places. We also rented banquet tables from them which also fit our theme. They were such a pleasure to deal with and were very flexible about delivery dates and times. I highly recommend this business.

Elite Entertainment and Bridal Salon really came through for our wedding 6/15/19!! We loved…read moreeverything about the services we received from them!! The services that we had used from Elite: 1) I bought my wedding dress and veil through Elite Bridal and my mom bought her Mother of the Bride's dress- my mom and I had so much fun finding my dress there- they have COUNTLESS options for all budgets and styles! If you book an appointment in advance I know there is the option to have a VIP experience, I decided to save some money and just went with a regular visit in the afternoon, during the week, and still felt like a VIP!! All of the ladies at Elite Bridal were wonderful and very easy to work with! 2) We did limo through Elite Limos and originally booked the Escalade limo, for a decent price. However, the Escalade had an unfortunate incident with a deer the week before our wedding but Kaitlin & Ryan were very kind and offered to upgrade us for free to the Party Bus or Hummer Limo- we chose the party bus and it was fantastic! 3) We chose to have our DJ through Elite Entertainment and Jeff Blankenship wound up being our guy! We received so many compliments all night on how awesome the DJ and music was and how no one had ever seen so many people on the dance floor through the whole night! Everyone is talking about how much fun they had at our wedding and I think Jeff & Elite Entertainment had a lot to do with that!! Thank you!! 4) We also chose to do Chiavari Chairs through Elite Entertainment, and they were beautiful!! I received a lot of compliments on how pretty they were and really added to the ambiance in the room! 5) Stacy from Elite helped us order tuxes through Jim's Formalwear and all of the tuxes looked great on the guys and they said they were very easy to order. Many of them needed to order them from out of state or far away (more than half actually!) and they also said it was a very easy process. My husband actually needed a different size jacket and vest when he received his in the mail and when he called Jim's Formalwear to get the new size it came in the mail very quickly TWICE!! He received it in the mail in plenty of time for us to get married. All in all- we would choose Elite all over again for the quality of service that they provided. Every interaction that I had with them via e-mail, phone, or in person was equally as personable and helpful. I have heard that some people in the area don't go with Elite because it's too "pricey" but I disagree- if you choose them for multiple services then you end up getting discounts galore! We actually saved money by going with them for so many things AND received high quality and trustworthy services! We ended up having severe rain all day during our wedding and some things needed to be moved around last minute- my aunt who was acting as our day- of coordinator on my behalf said that Elite was very easy to work with and that between her, Kaitlin from Elite, and Caitlin from the Regent (our ceremony and reception location) everything was taken care of! I can't thank all of the Elite Entertainment & Bridal employees enough for everything! We had the best day ever and I know that was in huge part to all of you!!

I needed high-quality photos of a real estate project on extremely short notice, and found Roland…read morethrough a (somewhat panicked) Google search. 48 hours after calling him, I had the photos in hand, and could not have been happier with the results. Despite an early spring snow storm, Roland delivered beautiful shots of both the interior and exterior of the property. He also touched the photos up, which I considered going above and beyond, given the ridiculously short turnaround time on the project. I work with many vendors in my line of work, and Roland is among the most accommodating I have ever encountered. While his work speaks for itself, this should not be overlooked. If I ever have a need for professional photography in the area again, Roland will be my first and only choice.
