We truly cannot say enough amazing things about our experience with Brittney! On the wedding day, she was calm, organized, and blended into the background while somehow capturing every single special moment. The photos are beyond stunning—authentic, emotional, and full of life. They didn’t just document the day, they told our story. She made sure to capture every shot I wanted and then some! She was on top of it!! We got soo many compliments on her day of and still do! If you’re looking for someone who gets it—who can balance artistry with real emotion and make you feel completely at ease in front of the camera—look no further.

Awarded Best of Zola
I seriously cannot recommend Chelsea with Olive & Ivy Co. enough! We didn’t have the budget for a full-on videographer, but I still really wanted someone to capture the behind-the-scenes moments—something more raw and real that I could look back on and also share on social media. Chelsea was exactly what I was looking for. She was such a calming, sweet presence and somehow captured everything without ever feeling in the way. The little moments, the real emotions, the fun stuff with my girls—she got it all. Watching the clips she sent me felt like reliving the day in the best way possible. If you’re on the fence, do it. You’ll be so happy to have these memories captured in such a real, beautiful way. So, so thankful I had her there!

I’ve been capturing weddings for over 20 years, and I still find myself falling in love with the magic of every single one. I actually started my journey at just 18 years old, and 600+ weddings later, my passion for storytelling has only grown. To me, wedding photography isn't just about the 'big' moments; it's about the love, the smiles, and the laughs that weave together to tell your unique story. My goal is to make sure you feel completely at ease so that your true personalities shine through in every frame.

Moments Captured By Vanessa was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. Vanessa is friendly, prompt, and completely professional. Her communication throughout the planning process was excellent, and she made sure we were comfortable and confident every step of the way. On the day of our wedding, which happened to be one of the coldest days of December, Vanessa didn't miss a beat- capturing beautiful, heartfelt, and creative images that we will hold on to forever. The final photos were truly timeless and classic. We are also so grateful to have such gorgeous shots of our reception, including some stunning photos featuring Christmas lights in the background (which can't be accomplished by every photographer l!). Vanessa's talent, hard work, and passion for her craft were evident in every single image. We couldn't be happier with the service and value we received from Moments Captured By Vanessa.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very beginning, working with Sugar Events was an absolute dream—especially for a destination wedding in Cancun. Their team is the definition of professional, organized, and incredibly detail-oriented, which made planning from afar feel seamless and completely stress-free. Communication was always clear and timely, and they truly took the time to understand our vision, cultural moments, and overall vibe for the entire wedding weekend. A huge shoutout to Sahil, Kanden, and Bhavjot—they were absolutely phenomenal. One of the most unforgettable moments was during Holi, where they did an incredible job engaging the crowd and bringing the energy to another level. Despite being a destination event, everything felt perfectly executed, and every guest felt included and excited. We were also beyond impressed by how seamlessly they transitioned from the reception dinner into dancing. The flow was smooth, intentional, and perfectly timed—before we even realized it, the dance floor was packed and the party was in full swing. Their ability to read the room and control the energy throughout the night truly set them apart. What meant the most to us was their calm, confident presence and attention to detail throughout every event. Knowing we had such a well-organized and experienced team handling everything in a destination setting allowed us to fully relax and enjoy our celebration. Sugar Events didn’t just play music—they elevated the entire experience and brought our Cancun wedding to life. If you’re planning a wedding or any special event and want a DJ team that is professional, culturally aware, incredibly organized, and genuinely invested in creating unforgettable moments, Sugar Events is hands down the best choice. We are beyond grateful for Sahil, Kanden, and Bhavjot and cannot recommend them enough!

Chime entertainment is an all around amazing vendor for DJ/MCEE, Photo booth, and videography services. Our day was amazing thanks to them! The Photo Booth added such a fun touch to the evening and was definitely a huge hit with all the funny props! It also left us with a full digital album of all of our guests having the time of their lives and was immediately available for us to look at (which came in handy while we waited for our wedding photos to come back). Everyone wont stop talking about how fun/perfect our wedding was and these guys were definitely the reason. Adam D, our main contact, was always quick to respond and always available when it came to answering our questions. Our DJ, George, was incredible, not only keeping the energy high all night but also stepping in to help coordinate the evening. He read the room perfectly, checked in with us throughout, and adapted seamlessly to any changes. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ and MC. Our videographer, Leeland, went above and beyond to capture our day beautifully. He brought such fun energy while also knowing when to step back and let private moments unfold naturally. His balance of presence and discretion made us feel so comfortable, and we’re so grateful he was part of our day.

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

We used the “Full Monty” package for our wedding and DIY-ed all our florals. Our florist, Hattie, did a great job listening to our vision and responded to all of our questions quickly! We explored options together, and she was able to help us get so much more than we would have with a florist and with the exact color palette we were looking at. Neither of us are great at design/DIY, but we felt very supported by the plethora of tutorials, recipes, and videos to create our flowers. With our florals, we made 6 pillar arrangements, 2 bridal bouquets, 8 bridesmaid bouquets, 3 corsages, a boutonniere, 2 medium centerpieces, and close to 100 bud vases. My maid of honor made my bridal bouquet, which made it even more special than it would have if a florist had made it. The flowers arrived at our AirBnb without any issues, and we lost barely any florals! I will say if DIY-ing flowers, whether with Flower Moxie or not, make sure you have people to help - especially with getting the florals out of the wrapping, in buckets, and cutting stems. We had our crews help, and it still looked overwhelming at first, so I can see how it can be stressful. We had our day-of-coordinator set everything up florals-wise on our wedding day, and everything looked GORGEOUS. If you have the people to help and are looking for more florals for less money, we would definitely recommend DIY-ing with flower moxie

HiMotive Entertainment & Photobooth did a great job keeping our wedding reception fun and upbeat. While their communication was a bit delayed leading up to the event, they were ultimately effective in executing on the day-of. The DJ kept the party going all night with a good song selection, though they did play 3 Taylor Swift songs in a row at the start, which we would have preferred more variety. The MC's ad-libs got a little overbearing at times, but overall they did a nice job sticking to the schedule and making important announcements.

The camcorders were simple for our guests to use, and everything was clearly explained, making the whole experience foolproof. What truly impressed me was their customer service. They were unbelievably kind and responded to every email so quickly. They even re-edited our wedding film **twice** to make sure it was exactly what we envisioned, and they happily searched through all of the footage to include very specific moments that were important to us. The most meaningful thing they did was incorporate a photo I sent them of our memorial table honoring my mom and my husband's grandparents who had passed away. Including that tribute in our wedding video meant more to us than I can express, and I'm so grateful they took the time to make it happen. Our final 5-minute home video feels so personal and captures the heart of our wedding day perfectly.

Throughout our whole time working with him he was great at communicating with us, answering any questions we had, and making any changes we needed so that our reception turned out just the way we wanted it to. Would absolutely recommend him for your wedding!

I’m Edgar, an HTX-raised native with Salvadorian roots. I am the owner, creative director, and lead photographer at Anchor Studios Photography. I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based out of Pittsburgh, PA! However, the stories I capture don't start and end there. I love to travel to capture stories all around the world.

Edgar did such an incredible job with our engagement photos. He had great ideas and directed us without making it seem stiff and got some wonderful candids. He totally achieved the aesthetic we were going for and I couldn’t be happier. Will be booking for our wedding if he’s not booked already!

We found Bluewater Kings through the preferred vendor list at our venue , and we are so glad we did. They invited us to come hear them play at a live showcase, and we were immediately sold. We booked them that same night. One of the best parts of working with them was the planning process. Their online planning portal made it so easy to update our preferences and make adjustments in the months leading up to the wedding. Molly was incredibly helpful and always quick to respond to any questions we had, which made everything feel seamless and organized. We also used their “iPad DJ” option so we could customize our cocktail hour and dinner playlists, along with a few songs during the band’s breaks. It was the perfect balance of adding our own personal touches while still trusting them to play what they know keeps the energy up. The band itself was amazing. They were so talented, brought great energy, and kept the dance floor packed all night. They really paid attention to the vibe we wanted and delivered exactly that. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and we would absolutely recommend them for your wedding.
