We can't say enough about Shore Catering and what Summer did for us. She didn't just cater our wedding—she actually helped us find our venue too, which was such a huge relief during the planning process. From our first conversation through the big day, Summer was responsive, kind, and always there when we needed her, whether we were calling or emailing with questions. On the wedding day itself, she and her team moved quickly and handled everything that came up, keeping our guests happy and fed with delicious food in our beautiful space.

We had a great experience with Pulse Event Group for our wedding!

He sent along a planning packet for us to start thinking about what we wanted, and also sent some check-in emails as we got close to our wedding day.

  • Officiant

  • Serves Bay Head, NJ

Hitched! By Harper is where unforgettable ceremonies meet authentic storytelling. I’m a firefighter-turned-award-winning officiant who crafts one-of-a-kind wedding experiences rooted in joy, meaning, and a touch of humor. 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.

My fiancé and I had Kevin officiate our wedding in August of 2025, and it was one of the best wedding decisions we made in the whole process! We were struggling on who we wanted to officiate our non-denominational ceremony, and with one month until our wedding day we found multiple recommendations for Hitched by Harper. The process was so easy, and for not knowing him personally, we had no less than 10 people on our wedding day asking something to the affect of “the officiant was amazing and personable, how did you know each other” and we actually had a friend book him for a wedding shortly after! Kevin was beyond impressive and we would recommend him and his services to anyone! If I could give this more than 5 stars I would.

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.

Chrys Coles Makeup was a pleasure to work with for my wedding day. She were responsive, and so kind throughout the entire process.

We had such an easy time working with Enchanted Celebrations staff that I would jump at choosing them again!

My approach is calm, intentional, and heartfelt. I want your photos to feel like you: beautiful, honest, and full of soul.

We absolutely loved working with her! She made us feel so comfortable during our engagement session and on our wedding day, and it really shows in the photos. She captured every moment so beautifully, and we're obsessed with how everything turned out. We truly couldn't have asked for anyone better.

Wedding day, they came in and literally handled it all. Jenn even sewed my nieces dress so it fit her properly. She was the master of all things. The day went amazing from 1st look to the cutting of our cake. They made it all so easy for us. I was a ball of nerves and Jenn made it all ok. Haha. Both of our families were telling us both, how wonderful they were. Jack and I knew from the moment we spoke to them, they would not only do a wonderful job, but we would become friends after. We cannot thank you both enough for the stellar job you've done.

Cam and the LEDG Entertainment team absolutely crushed it!!! The dance floor was packed the entire time and we had numerous guests during and after the night tell us how it was by far the best DJ/music they’ve ever experienced at a wedding.  From the start of the process Cam did an incredible job of understanding our vision and the type of music/vibe we wanted to have. Cam was extremely organized and personable, and the 3 pre-wedding calls we had with him were super beneficial to building trust and ensuring the night went as smoothly as possible. These meetings were very productive, and by the time we were through with them, we knew we had made the right choice. By the end, Cam felt more like a genuine friend than somebody we were hiring. He gave honest feedback, made several recommendations, and worked with us through numerous changes. When it came to execution, Cam and his team were very professional and delivered beyond expectations. They played all the songs we wanted to hear and even included their own creative touch with some amazing remixes and twists. They kept the crowd at high energy all night long and made sure every guest was having a great time. I think we spent 95% of our night on the dance floor having an absolute blast, and thats just the way we wanted to remember the night. We seriously cannot thank Cam and LEDG Entertainment enough for an unforgettable experience. For any couple looking to have the best night ever, we give LEDG Entertainment our highest Recommendation!

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.

Being able to look back, remember the great laughs, and reminisce a particular night is what we all look forward to. Our goal is to help everyone remember one of the best nights by telling your story through our eyes. There is no better compliment than for you to show your loved ones what happened through one of the best days of your lives.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience during our engagement shoot! From the moment we arrived, the energy was infectious — we were laughing, moving, and genuinely having the time of our lives. It never once felt like a photoshoot; it felt like spending the afternoon with a friend who just happened to have a camera. What truly set our photographer apart was the perfect balance of fun and professionalism. They kept the session lighthearted and exciting while never losing their sharp eye for the details that make a photo extraordinary — the way the light hit just right, thoughtful staging of every scene, and gentle, natural posing direction that made us both feel completely at ease in front of the camera. No stiff, awkward poses here — every shot felt candid and authentic. Their patience was also something we deeply appreciated. They never rushed us, always made sure we were comfortable, and took the time to get each shot exactly right. You can feel that care and intentionality in every single image. And the final photos? Absolutely stunning. The quality speaks for itself — crisp, vibrant, and full of genuine emotion. We are so in love with every single one and will treasure them forever. If you are on the fence, consider this your sign to book them immediately. You will not regret it for a single second. We are already counting down the days until our wedding so we can work with them again!

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
My wife and I booked Wild Hearts for our 2025 wedding. This was the single best decision we made for our wedding (aside from choosing to get married). Kamelia is a fabulous photographer, a fastidious planner, and an encouraging partner for your wedding day. Kamelia is equally comfortable keeping order during wedding chaos and being a bastion of support who will tirelessly and patiently listen to all of your wedding woes. I cannot say enough good things about Kamelia. She made my wife feel supported and sane throughout the wedding process by offering sage, leveled advice and being a constant source of understanding and reassurance. She made me, who is not often comfortable in front of the camera, feel at home in our shoots. Never once when working with Kamelia did photos feel tedious, unwelcome, or unenjoyable; rather, every moment with her was fun, easy, and smooth. As a photographer, Kamelia has a unique skill to capture the beauty of small moments, to represent love and affection and happiness in timeless images. Life becomes art through Kamelia’s camera lens. Truly, her talent is unmatched. But her peerless skill as a photographer is only part of the reason you should hire her. With Kamelia, you get more than a photographer; you get a wedding planner, a sympathetic soul, a wedding day drill sergeant who keeps everything and everyone on track, a genuine advocate for her couples, and a friend. I promise, give Wild Hearts your business. You will be making one of the best decisions you could make for your event or moment. Thank you to Kamelia and Chris for making our wedding day such a serene, easy event and for capturing our love in such a beautiful, elegant fashion. You have given us memories we will cherish forever. We are eternally grateful.

If you are looking to have a wedding where your guests do not leave the dance floor the entire night - look no further because JB Pro Live is who you need!! Our DJ, Jan, absolutely exceeded all expectations we had as a DJ for our wedding day. When we met with him before the wedding, we gave him a few of our favorite songs but told him to use his discretion as what was most important to us was having everyone dancing and enjoying themselves. WELL, did he know what he was doing!!! Our dance floor was filled the ENTIRE NIGHT. We had 220 guests at our wedding, and 0 of them were sitting. We have guests who didn't even know we had a photo booth or voicemail booth because they truly did not leave the dance floor one time to look around. Jan reads the room perfectly and truly has a niche for knowing what people like to hear. Our MC Matt was also so great! He helped keep the night on track and made sure we were enjoying ourselves the entire time. He was fun, entertaining, and kept the vibes going! We have had 10 guests ask for our DJs information so they can book him for their own wedding because he really was just that good. After just the first dance set alone, our guests were excited and ready to party because he set the tone perfectly! We also booked a saxophonist through JPBRO as well as a dry ice machine, indoor firework fountains, and the snow effect and they were all perfect! The snow was by far the best addition! It was practically real snow (way better than what we were expecting) and all of our guests went crazy over it! The saxophonist was also a great touch and played practically every song throughout the night which our guests loved! And of course the dry ice machine and indoor firework fountains looked so great in our wedding pictures! Request Jan as your DJ- he is worth every penny and you will not regret it!!! He is absolutely a pro at what he does and you can guarantee that with him, not only will you have the best night of your life, but your guests will as well!

I’ve been a bridal hairstylist for over 10 years now. I pride myself on helping you reach not only the most beautiful but realistic style for your hair type and texture. Classic and timeless styles will always be my favorite, but I’m always up for something glamorous.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

Gab and her team were so easy to work with and so professional. She was so organized that we were done early! All of my bridesmaids were different skin tones, types, and requested different makeup styles. Everyone was flawless and stayed that way all night. As the bride, she made sure to take care of and pamper me to keep me calm and enjoying the process. I barely felt like I was wearing makeup and she nailed exactly what I was looking for. Would certainly recommend and work with her again! I am so thankful to have had her on such an important day.
