Florists

Elena’s Garden is a family affair … Growing up around flowers in my grandmother’s vast garden, my mom, aunt, and I inherited a passion for flowers almost by osmosis….

… Coupled with my passion for planning events, which started with my own wedding, and over 10 years of event experience, this special inheritance has now developed into custom event design, wedding planning, and so much more.

MKuzma Designs is a studio event florist based in Chicago with a personalized approach to floral design. We believe it is important to spend more time getting to know you, learning about your vision, and making sure it is reflected through the floral work. Our goal is to provide a stress-free experience so you can be present to enjoy all the special moments. Although we focus on and specialize in weddings we also enjoy creating florals for private parties and corporate events.

Photographers

I’m Randy and I’m so excited you’re here! I think your wedding photos deserve to be as epic as your love story.

I’m a European-turned-Chicagoan that lives to take pictures, and takes pictures to live! I love coffee, the 4th of July, Christmas, baking pizza, the sound of rain, playing piano, traveling & spending my days off with family and friends.

Pull inspiration for your centerpiece from the space around you – tall grass or wild flowers from your yard make the table fit right into its 

surroundings. And don’t forget lights – pergolas are great to hang chinese lanterns or edison lights so that you can see the delicious food and the smiles on the guests faces.
