You can get great floral from a # of places such as Phillips in the western suburbs. Also, if you don't have your own clergy, you can try rentarev.com and rev4 whatev.com...think those are the correct sites. I teach this stuff and you'd think I could have instant recall! I usually ask students to Google it. So think rent-a-rev and -rev-for-whatev. DJ, look at my friend list for Keith KoKoruz....he does a really great job. Most DJ's also have lighting packages available and a range of fees for service, Jodi. If you need anything else, just hit me up with a PM. I DO suggest at the very least you hire a 'day of event coordinator' to allow you and your bridal party to enjoy yourselves and get prepared for your big day without worry. I have a number of people I could recommend...one in particular comes to mind who likes to wrangle the details without all the planning pressure. So just give me a shout, sweetie...what an exciting time for you!
