The photos speak for themself. Melissa is a magician with a grazing table. She went for the full WOW. Everyone was shocked and delighted. I’d also like to point out that they were AFFORDABLE!! I was quoted 3 to 5x what they quoted me by other restaurants that would have done half of what they did for us. I had 5 chefs (including one James Beard nominee) on my guest list and every single one complimented the food. Lakeland BBQ’s crew were truly fair and Melissa was the absolute best from start to finish. The staff was incredible and so attentive too. They have my business for life, from their incredible bbq to their grazing tables (they do Tex mex and tasty Italian too!) I won’t be booking anyone else but them!!

Ever After Farms Citrus was the perfect venue for our wedding day. The communication from the staff was amazing - attentive, descriptive, and kept me feeling calm and prepared, especially when we were figuring out backup plans for potential rain. The modern barn has a beautiful spacious layout with indoor and outdoor areas that created the perfect backdrop. I loved working with the decorator who helped with all the little details - she had long black hair and such a sweet demeanor. Another standout was Desiree who helped ensure everything ran smoothly. At one point when I forgot my bouquet, someone raced to grab it so I didn't walk down the aisle empty handed! It's clear this team truly cares. Between the gorgeous venue and thoughtful staff, Ever After Farms Citrus really contributed to making our wedding day special.

My name is Mary and I own and operate Mary Marsh Media with the help of my amazing partner Wiresh. I grew up in a small town outside of Virginia Beach and moved to Central Florida in 2013. I have been shooting for the past 15 years and am so grateful to have had the support of my family, friends and clients. I am primarily a wedding photographer but I have a passion for capturing beauty in every form and I just LOVE love. Being chosen to capture the most precious moments is the biggest honor of my life and I know that I'm lucky to be one of the few people who absolutely loves what I do for a living.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the most magical elopement in the hills of Tennessee, at a local bird sanctuary, and it wouldn't have been the same without our incredible photographer, Mary! From the very first email, her communication was absolutely excellent. She was prompt, clear, and always happy to answer our (many!) questions. Planning an elopement or wedding can be stressful, but she made the process so smooth and easy. Beyond her amazing communication, her talent behind the camera is simply breathtaking. She perfectly captured the intimate and natural feel of our ceremony. The photos are stunning – the light, the composition, the way she captured the emotion of the day… everything was just perfect. Looking at them, we’re instantly transported back to that special moment. She has a true gift for capturing not just images, but the feeling and atmosphere of a place and time. She was also so flexible and adaptable on the day itself. The bird sanctuary provided a stunning backdrop, but also presented some unique challenges (like navigating uneven terrain and climbing a mountain while she had a broken foot!!!). She handled everything with grace and professionalism, and her positive energy was contagious. It felt like having a friend there with us, celebrating our special day. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only incredibly talented but also a joy to work with, look no further. We wholeheartedly recommend her for any wedding or elopement, especially if you're looking for someone who can capture the beauty of nature and the intimacy of your special moment. We will cherish these photos forever!

Hello friends! My name is Mariella. I’m 26 year old, a wife, a girl mama, and proud business owner! I have always loved everything about weddings. From start to finish I love the aspect of planning every detail and bringing a vison to life. My passion for this industry has grown throughout the years. After working under another planner my love for this grew even stronger and that's when I decided it's time to start my own business and take this journey at full force. I absolutely love what I do!

My wife, Summer, was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in 2024. This year, I decided to apply to Wish Upon a Wedding in hopes of giving Summer the day she always hoped for. Wish Upon a Wedding is a nonprofit organization that gifts weddings and vow renewals to couples facing terminal or life-changing illnesses. When they came into our lives, Summer and I were in a season where joy felt complicated and hope looked very different than we imagined. Through Wish Upon a Wedding, we were paired with our wedding planner, Married by Mariella. Mariella donated her time, talent, and heart completely free of charge. What’s important to say is that Mariella didn’t just coordinate our vow renewal. She planned it from the ground up, picking every single vendor and executing the day completely. She took Summer’s vision and brought it to life with care, intention, and deep respect for what this moment meant to us. Every detail reflected the image Summer and I had hoped for, and Mariella carried that responsibility with such grace. She led with compassion and patience, making the process feel calm and supported rather than overwhelming. There was never pressure, never rushing, and never an expectation for us to pretend things were easy. Because of Wish Upon a Wedding and Mariella’s selfless generosity, Summer and I were able to stand together, renew our vows, and experience joy without guilt in the middle of a very heavy season. Mariella and Rachael made this the best day of our lives. We will always be grateful, not just for a beautiful day, but for a memory we will carry for the rest of our lives. We could never thank her enough!

"I'm a witness of Life in its best moments" Hi, I'm Nacho! A professional Photographer seeking beauty and real life moments, I help nervous & shy couples relax and enjoy their day. First, I am a kind person. Then, a skilled seeker of unforgettable memories. I am the one who appreciates the smallest details. I am the witness of life in its best versions and the custodian of the fact that everything was real. This is me, Nacho! The fortunate stranger who today has the pleasure of saying that he captures love where others only see a simple wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hands down the best wedding decision we made was hiring Nacho - and my husband says it all the time! Nacho is incredibly talented at getting the perfect shots but his service is so much more than his photography. He seamlessly fits whatever role is needed in the moment - handling stressful family situations, helping navigate busy timelines, keeping things moving and bringing a genuine “good energy” to the day. He showed up as our photographer but ended the day as everyone’s favorite person. My 4 year old niece still asks about him every day! He leaves a lasting impression and his photos truly capture every moment and emotion that we all want to remember from our wedding days. (Side note: he is very talented at understanding lighting and I’m blown away at how well he captured the natural sunlight during golden hour.) I am beyond thankful that we hired Nacho and highly recommend him for any event or wedding. Extra: Our photography package included an engagement shoot. However, on the day of the shoot a hurricane came through Florida and we had to cancel so Nacho offered us a photo book after the wedding. And let me tell you, this photo book isn’t just any photo book. The quality is unlike anything I have seen. It truly is an heirloom-quality memory book with thick, archival cardstock pages. I highly encourage you to add on Nacho’s photo books if you can!

Our wedding at Bella Cosa was nothing short of magical — truly the day of our dreams brought to life in the most beautiful way. From the moment we arrived, we were swept away by the breathtaking landscaping, the meticulous attention to detail, and the exceptional team who made everything feel effortless. Every inch of the property felt like it was made for us, and the atmosphere was pure romance. But what truly set Bella Cosa apart — and what I’ll be forever grateful for — were Shelby and Lori. These two women were absolute angels throughout the entire planning process and on our big day. Attentive, compassionate, communicative, and endlessly kind, they became the rock I leaned on, the calm in the chaos, and the guiding hands that made everything come together perfectly. I genuinely can’t imagine our day without them. Shelby and Lori didn’t just help coordinate a wedding — they helped create memories that will live in our hearts forever. Thanks to them and the entire Bella Cosa team, our wedding wasn’t just an event — it was a flawless, joy-filled celebration that exceeded every expectation. If you’re dreaming of a picture-perfect wedding with a team that truly cares, look no further than Bella Cosa. It was everything I hoped for, and so much more.

Soon after, Mouw Photography was born, where my love of weddings, family portraits, maternity and newborn photography grew into a specialty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Amanda and Mallory are amazing people, and they helped us tremendously with not only the great photography, but also with navigating the demands of a wedding day. They even snuck us for 10 minutes away from everyone, which is hard to come by on that day. Now on to the photography, which is the reason we hired Amanda. The photos are stunning. She took such amazing photos with such great efficiency and made everything effortless and easy. She knew which photos we needed and made sure she got all of them. An example of Amanda's work and her attention to detail was when she moved locations during the "golden hour" shoot to take advantage of a beautiful cloud formation at sunset. We ended up in a cornfield feeling more beautiful than we ever have in our lives. It's one of the best memories we have of our wedding, honestly. If you're looking for a wedding photographer, and you read this review, just stop doing research; do yourself a favor and hire Amanda and her team! Great photographer, amazing person.

We first discovered El Pampeano Steakhouse through a wedding decorator and were blown away by their catering for our wedding in November 2024. Seeing them now on Zola reminded us of the wonderful experience we had, and we wanted to leave our review. Everything was flawless: the food was delicious, the service attentive and professional, and Leo, the grill master, and his wife Lore were always on top of every detail. They truly made our wedding even more special and memorable. We highly recommend El Pampeano Steakhouse to any couple looking for catering that combines amazing flavor, attentive service, and genuine dedication.

Kiersten was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. Her communication was quick, helpful, knowledgeable, and professional throughout the entire process. I have a lot of food restrictions and Kiersten was more than willing to work with me to fully customize our wedding cake so that I would be able to eat it. She was so accommodating and willing to work with our preferences to make sure that we got exactly what we wanted and she exceeded our expectations! The quality of her work is beautiful and delicious. We got cake pops, cupcakes, and our wedding cake. Best German chocolate cake ever BTW - our guests agreed!!! If you're on the fence, just know that I am SO happy I came across Kakes by Kiersten. I highly, HIGHLY recommend to any couple planning their wedding or anyone planning any event. I will hands down be using her in the future.

Searching for a wedding photographer can be really overwhelming but finding Madison was the best thing that could have happen to us! She was absolutely amazing—so sweet and attentive. She took our engagement and wedding photos and we are blown away at her skills. All her photos turn out bright and beautiful, capturing every moment perfectly. My husband and I have different styles in photos but she took the time to understand our preferences and made sure to photograph everything just the way we wanted. We are very awkward in front of the camera and never know how to pose… but her instructions make it easy and seem like we are naturals. We 10000/10 recommend Madison as your wedding photographer. She’s a true gem!
