As your lead shooter, he had a passion for photography his entire life, capturing moments around him in the most authentic ways until one day Brittany told him “go full time”, it was insane. He fell in love with wedding photography and the emotion it brought out for everyone involved.

Having a background in hospitality for 20 years Brittany began coordinating the day alongside Mark.

Mark and Brittany are truly exceptional at what they do. My husband and I are not typically in front of a camera, but Mark made us instantly comfortable in a way that allowed him to truly capture the moment between us instead of feeling like models posing for a job. We had a small wedding with no formal wedding planner or runner for the day, but Brittany and Mark helped everything to go smoothly, and we truly couldn’t have done it without them. Beyond all that, the images are truly breathtaking. Mark has an intrinsic ability to scan a space and find the most beautiful piece of it. I have never seen the inside of a train station look so magical! If you choose This Insane Idea for your special day, you will not be disappointed!

From booking with her, to the hair trial, to the day of my wedding day, Bryanna was an absolute joy to work with for my wedding day beauty needs! With my hair and the look I was going for (a natural Hollywood curl, all down), she had recommended hair extensions. I never had hair extensions but let's just say, she knows what she's talking about as well as what she's doing! Talk about trusting the process. My hair came out beautifully - just how I envisioned and it held all day into the night given the hair products she used for myself and my bridal party! Bryanna and her team were amazing and I highly recommend her for all bridal hair needs!

Awarded Best of Zola
Blossom and Bee were one of the approved vendors on our venue's list. It was an easy process working with Penny and her team. I was able to pin inspo pictures on a Pinterest board as well as share pictures of my dress, my husband's tux, and our wedding invitation suite. As a bride of Indian origin, I wanted bright spring florals that also complimented the industrial/French look of our venue. I was overwhelmed by the number of color combinations I was interested in and the team helped me narrow down to the best color scheme. Something to note is that you will need to provide bud vases and rent floral stands from B&B if that is something you want in your decor. Luckily my venue provided a moon gate that could be used for the ceremony, and the venue staff repurposed the florals from the ceremony to the sweetheart table.

She took my very minimal comments from the trial and implemented them perfectly for the big day—I’ve never felt so beautiful!

My makeup put stayed all night and looked fantastic in photos. Mandy was also incredibly professional and organized.

Choosing Monica as the makeup artist for our wedding was one of the best decisions made by far! She understood the exact look I wanted to achieve and pulled it off flawlessly. During my initial trial, Monica made me feel as if I was just hanging out with a friend who happens to be amazing at makeup, and I booked her on the spot. The day of the wedding, she was nothing short of professional and made all of my bridesmaids, mom and MIL feel extremely comfortable. Everyone was extremely thrilled with how their makeup turned out as well, which I find isn't always the case when you're a bridesmaid, and echoed my sentiment of feeling as if they were hanging out with a friend the whole time. I definitely recommend working with Monica - you won't regret it!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Maria for my wedding, and I highly recommend her! She was on time, friendly, professional, and made all of us feel so comfortable with being photographed. Our wedding memories are beautifully preserved thanks to her incredible work, and we will cherish these photos for years to come!

From the moment we started planning, The Gramercy exceeded every expectation. When I submitted inquiries through Zola, Megan Dunn was the only person to respond with such detailed, timely information which was a huge relief as this was our first time planning a wedding. She guided us with patience, answered every question, and was always present during our site visits. We chose The Gramercy because of the stunning aesthetics, the warm and welcoming staff, the value included in the cost per person, and the fact that they host only one event per day meaning their full attention is on you. Our wedding on June 12 was beyond perfect. Pauline, our host, truly took care of us, making sure we ate, had drinks, and were enjoying ourselves the entire time. She extended that same care to our families too. The team beautifully set up our décor, and they even included extra decorations to help us save money, which was such a thoughtful touch. The food was amazing, and the desert station blew us away! We also held our ceremony onsite, and Megan was incredibly helpful in navigating that process. She guided us on where to go, helped our officiant get registered, and made sure we had all the information needed to obtain our marriage license. On top of that, the staff worked seamlessly with our vendors to ensure everyone was set up and prepared for the day, which made everything run smoothly from start to finish. Huge thank you to the entire Gramercy team for making our day so special and a special shoutout to Megan for being so kind and helpful throughout the whole process. If you’re looking for a venue that will treat your event with genuine care and attention we recommend The Gramercy to anyone, any day!

Alex & his team were absolutely amazing from the first meeting to the wedding! They worked with us throughout everything, the only DJ team that we met with that we genuinely laughed and felt super confident and comfortable with choosing! The weeks leading up to the wedding with planning and choosing our music, Alex was absolutely AMAZING! Giving us so many suggestions and ideas (he is truly talented!) The day of the wedding his team were on time and I didn’t have to worry about anything. They DID NOT disappoint when it came to the ceremony & reception. Me and my husband danced the entirety of the night and did not let one song go to waste! Everyone was out on the dance floor all night. Overall a 11/10!! The DJ Experience was absolutely amazing and we highly recommend
