Flowers
I have decided to work with Kio Kreations in Naperville. I was really leaning toward another florist, but for the same price I am able to get some originality with Kristen. I am so excited for my flowers and in all honesty, I told my fiance from the beginning that flowers were not that important to me. Complete change of heart... Even though it isn't really in the budget, I would love her to do my centerpieces. Her creativity is going to be noticed! My bouquet will be beautiful with whites, blues, and pinks (blue hydrangeas, white stepanotis with light blue pearls inside, white akito roses, white calla lilies, pink sweet pea with the stem wrapped in black and white!)
Maid of Honor and Bridesmaid bouquets: white hydrangeas, blue scabiosa, hybrid light blue delphinium, white Akito roses, stems wrapped in my blue and black
Mothers will have pearl bracelet wrist corsage mix of my bouquet
Groom will have white calla lily with blue accents, stem wrapped in black and silver wire
Groomsmen will have white akito rose with blue accents, stem wrapped in black
Fathers and my son will have white calla lily, stem wrapped in black and silver wire
Brother of the bride and ushers will have white rose with stem wrapped in black and silver wire

Photographer
Dale Jewell has been booked as our photographer since July. I was really happy with him in our meeting because he is a photographer because he has a passion for it. He has been recommended by girls on the Chicago Knot community board and he was within our budget too.
OneMooreDJ
We met Chris back in July. We were definitely looking for somebody with personality and an understanding of how we wanted things and after looking at a few different DJs, we felt that Chris met the criteria. He is the DJ for a friend of mine's wedding in December, so I am very anxious to hear her thoughts.
