From our first conversation, the team responded to every question and concern right away, and they truly understood what we wanted for our big day. They created the most stunning centerpieces that sat on each table, and candles were placed throughout the venue to set the perfect mood.

Since 2010, I’ve helped couples of all backgrounds feel seen, celebrated, and totally at ease on their big day. Every ceremony is written from scratch to reflect your vibe, your values, and your story—not a template in sight.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant for our wedding! Kevin was the first officiant we met with, and we knew right away that he was the right choice. He did such an amazing job making our ceremony feel incredibly personal and meaningful. So many of our guests told us afterward that it was one of the best wedding ceremonies they had ever attended. We even had multiple people ask us how we knew him because the ceremony felt so personal that they assumed he must have known us for years! He made everything feel completely unique to us and told our story in such a natural, genuine way. It was heartfelt, personal, and still had the perfect amount of humor. We’re so grateful for how special he made our ceremony and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for an officiant!”

If you're a bride, you know that things have changed a little bit since the day you got engaged, you started making plans right away and every step it's a roller coaster of emotions that will follow you until your wedding day. Being a bride in the past, I understand the need of being surrounded by professionals that not only provide you with beautiful and organized work but you also treat you as a special person and not just a number.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Choosing a makeup artist is one of the biggest decisions a bride can make, and I am so thankful that I chose Chrystiane for my wedding day. From the very beginning, she was attentive, professional, and genuinely cared about making sure I felt beautiful and comfortable. One thing I especially appreciated was how she checked in with me throughout the entire process to make sure I loved the direction of my makeup. As someone with a darker skin tone, I initially took a leap of faith because her social media portfolio did not feature many clients who looked like me. However, she exceeded every expectation and created a flawless look that made me feel confident and beautiful all day long. She was also wonderful with my bridesmaids and my mother, thoughtfully adapting her techniques to suit different skin types and ages. Her kindness and attention to detail truly stood out. As an added touch, she even provided a thoughtful goodie bag with products used during my service that could no longer be used on other clients. It was such a generous gesture and speaks to the level of care she provides. I cannot recommend Chrystiane enough. She played such an important role in helping me feel my best on one of the most important days of my life. – Larissa Silver”

“We had such a great experience with Enchanted Celebrations for our wedding! From the beginning, Summer was wonderful to work with. She was very responsive, helpful, and always quick to answer our questions throughout the planning process. Our photographer, Ash, was amazing. He was extremely professional, attentive, and so easy to work with. You can really see how devoted and passionate he is about his work and how much he cares about getting the perfect shots. He had great ideas throughout the day and made us feel completely taken care of. Even some of our friends noticed how great he was and commented on it afterward. Our videographer, Randolph, was also amazing. His enthusiasm and positive energy made us feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera. He was very attentive throughout the day, and we could tell he genuinely cared about capturing all the important moments. The only thing I would recommend to future couples is that if you choose a specific photographer from their portfolio, ask Enchanted Celebrations to confirm that person’s availability before making your payment. We selected a photographer when we booked about eight months before our wedding, but around two weeks after booking, we were told that photographer wasn’t available. Their contract does state that if your selected photographer isn’t available, they can assign another photographer from those available, but I would have appreciated having the availability confirmed before we booked and paid. That being said, we ended up being extremely happy with Ash and Randolph. They were both wonderful to work with and made us feel like we were in great hands on such an important day. We can’t wait to see everything they captured. Thank you to the entire Enchanted Celebrations team! Her are pictures taken from Ash the photographer for the engagement shoot !”

“This is what dreams are made of. When I was a little girl, I had big dreams about what my future wedding would look like. As I got older and realized how much everything costs, I started to think my dream wedding would stay just that—a dream. But one thing never changed: I always wanted to get married in a little white chapel and walk down the aisle to the sound of a violin. Petya made that dream come true. From the moment I first reached out to her, we instantly connected. I knew, without a doubt, that no matter where we ended up getting married, she had to be a part of it. I’d listen to her music on YouTube and just melt. She’s cheerful yet calming, incredibly talented, and truly helped put me at ease throughout the process. The morning of my wedding was stressful, but Petya texted me with encouragement, lifting my spirits and getting me excited for the day ahead. Guests even told me how beautiful the atmosphere was as they waited for my arrival—all because of the ambiance she created through her music. As the church doors opened and I saw my soon-to-be husband standing at the altar, the sound of Petya’s violin made it feel like I was walking into a dream. I couldn’t see anyone else—it was as if her melody was wrapping around just the two of us. It might sound dramatic, but we had a very Christian ceremony, and we asked her to play worship music. It made the moment feel sacred, like God’s presence was truly among us. At the end of the ceremony, I ran up to her and couldn’t help but gush about how incredible she was. She gave us our fairytale moment.”

The end results speak for themselves - Victor captured all of the special moments of our wedding beautifully with his high quality work. My husband and I felt relieved knowing we were in good hands with Victor. We'd highly recommend him to any couple looking for a talented, professional photographer who also makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera.”

“From our first conversation, I knew Ulana and I had a connection and she was the right choice for our wedding. Ulana is truly responsive, genuine, and truly supportive throughout the entire planning process, making us feel heard at every step. Her creativity is unmatched when it comes to florals and she makes your ideas come to life in such a special and unique way. She recreated my mother's wedding bouquet while meant the world to me, and her creative mind helped us achieve so much more than we ever dreamed possible for our flowers. The flowers were absolutely stunning, classic, and elegant in every way and our guests are still talking about how beautiful they were. You can feel Ulana's passion for her work, especially knowing that Flower Barn is an actual flower farm. We couldn't have asked for a better florist to make our day so special and I’ve created a lifelong genuine connection with Ulana. If you’re looking for the wedding florist of your dreams she is your MUST have pick.”

“Borello Beauty was a fantastic choice for our wedding beauty needs. Their communication was quick and responsive. The quality of their makeup was beautiful, long-lasting, and was a great value.

My love for photography was born when I picked up a camera and started shooting street photography as a hobby. This hobby quickly took over my entire life! Thankfully, combined with my editing and retouching skills, I was able to turn my passion into a career. Owning and running Wild Hearts has been the one of my greatest joys! I love truly love capturing your real life moments and emotions. Yes I am organized as hell and type A, but balance that with heavy doses of standing back and just capturing the moment as it’s happening. I feel a real connection with all the wild hearts out there, and would love it if you let me capture yours!
