CWD was wonderful to work with! We got married in August and did the photobooth album and the audio guestbook. The set-up was perfect and ALL of our guests absolutely loved the photobooth! The photobooth attendant even put together an album for us with everyone's photos, and they were so efficient with getting the audio messages back to us promptly.

Chicago Wedding decoration was by far the best to work with! When I first met with Eddie and I had no idea what type of vision I wanted for my wedding, he walked me through it all and helped me picture my big day! He was so quick to answer any questions, And helped me work with my Budget.
When I walked into my venue on my wedding day, I would love speechless with the drapery I chose for the ceiling. It really helped tie my vision together. It just made the room look so gorgeous And now my friends who are planning their Wedding are asking about The drapery so I recommended them This company.
And it was so lovely at the end of the night that Eddie took the time before taking down the drapes to meet me in person and congratulate me. His team are quick and amazing and have such a wonderful personality. I told all my friends about them and told them they should Use them for their wedding as well!

I didn’t even have to tell them what to do. They made it look so beautiful. They made something that was wooden walls and made it look so gorgeous so if you’re looking for someone that will truly make your special occasion definitely give them a call. You’ll be so satisfied.

When we first initanley met with Eddie, we were gaining insights of his photography and videography bussinsss. When going over the details, he mentioned he has a sister company, Chicago Wedding Decoration. He showed us videos and photos of the events that they set up, demonstrating curtains, stage wraps, center pieces, etc. He really broke down what we really needed, and didn’t, which was helpful because wedding planning was something we have not done before. The only critique we would say is that we wish we would have known about this company, personally, when reaching out to him initially about photo and video. We booked other decoration companies prior, so it would have been easier to order everything through him.
When getting closer to the wedding, we were keeping in contact through email. When we had questions it would take 2–5 days for a response, sometimes, and in some cases we would have to email twice. We understood that his team had other events that he had to take care of, but a quicker response time would have been helpful. On the day of the wedding he showed up on time, set up everything beautifully, and really met our expectations. We put our full trust in Eddie and his team to decorate to our standards, and they really pulled it off!
Overall, Eddie and his team did a fantastic job and we would highly recommend them!

We could not have had a better experience with Eddie and his team!! My husband and I went back and forth a few different times about what we wanted, and Eddie was patient with us and guided us toward the perfect decision. We ended up hiring them for uplighting and for our GORGEOUS black and white diamond vinyl wrap dance floor. They also did our stunning ceremony drapery. It was everything we could have ever wanted and the details they provided really elevated our space. We could not recommend them enough! Thank you Eddie & team!!
