Jessica McClintock has the most to-die-for flower girl dresses! They are a lot more unique and stylish than what you can find at chain bridal stores.

Dinkel's Bakery is known to be one of the best bakeries in Chicago. There are lines out the door of this place! The cakes are super-moist and tasty.

The United Church of Christ is really open-minded, so it is perfect for people who want to get married in a church, but are not very religious. Other than a counseling session with the priest, there are no religious requirements.

David's Bridal has a huge selection with tons of colors to choose from. The dresses are pretty inexpensive as well.

If you are an older bride that doesn't want to get too wild and crazy, Andy's might be for you. It's mellow, and they'll sit you at a table right up front.

Good value. Relatively low-pressure sales environment. They are able to customize the jewelry you see in their case to your specific needs.

Really atmospheric. They take care of all the details. Wide variety of food to choose from. However, there may be other weddings going on at the same time as yours.

Great band for the price. The more you pay, the more instruments you get. However, the actual performers you get on your wedding day may not be the same as the ones you see at the audition.

Lovely setting, great service, and family-style food was delicious (although there could have been more of it on the initial serving plates).
