The Lovely Lens 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,400
  • Serves Beaver Dams, NY

Hullo! So you're gettin' hitched (YaaY!), but you’re not super into the idea of the overly-manicured wedding. A+ for you, because this is not your parents’ wedding photography. I'm a farm kid who floats between the journalism and art worlds. I love telling stories as much as I love listening to the stories of others. I’m the type of person who makes up musicals for my own amusement and nurses a soft spot for sci-fi and fantasy. If I’m not taking photos, I’m usually dancing. Or cooking. It’s possible I may have a baking addiction and try to mitigate the damage by forcing the goods on loved ones.

Celia at The Lovely Lens was an absolute GEM!! Our wedding was not the typical / traditional ceremony-- on purpose! Leading up to the big day, Celia kept lines of communication open (so helpful for planning) and was 1000% supportive of our special day being so...well, special! She was such a total champ while capturing every moment in the pouring rain. She was fully prepared for the weather & didn't miss one beat! My partner and I instantly felt at ease and loved our time together with her. She encouraged us to be our authentically goofy selves! Her presence was so warm, her energy was delightful, and her work was STUNNING! Seriously, I'm obsessed with the photos! Not only do we have incredible images from this amazing day, but we also have wonderful memories with Celia. She was so friendly and kind us as well as to our family and friends, and immediately jumped on board with our 'potluck bbq at Grandma's house' vibe. By the end of the day she felt like part of the family as we chatted about our furkids and exchanged on where to order some cute socks with their faces on them, haha. If you're looking for an absolute powerhouse of an artist to capture your day in the way that doesn't feel awkward or intrusive, or if you're looking for a photographer with genuinely good vibes and authentic energy, or if you're looking for someone to simply help tell your love story through stunning imagery-- please consider The Lovely Lens of Celia for your special day. 3

We are so grateful for the beautiful wedding that Allie and Kurt helped us to plan and host at Osmica at Spring Trail Farm! Throughout the planning process, Allie was incredibly communicative, organized, and attentive to our vision. She is extremely creative and helped us to bring all of our ideas to life! Allie also has many relationships and experience with local vendors, and was able to make recommendations and introductions to folks. Allie also helpfully reminded us about key tasks over time to keep us on track, which we greatly appreciated! The venue itself is incredibly beautiful – there are walking paths through wildflowers, an impressive garden that supplied our floral arrangements and a lovely breakfast on our wedding day (both of which Allie and Kurt made for us), a beautiful farmhouse where we stayed the nights before and after and got ready in (which made logistics much easier), and scenic views. We couldn’t have asked for more. We’re even grateful to have been rained out of the outdoor ceremony that we planned – the hayloft is gorgeous and made for a dramatic backdrop. We would get married at Osmica and hire Allie again in a heartbeat. We can’t wait to visit again in the years to come :) Huge thanks to Kelsey Travis for these photos: https://www.facebook.com/kelseytravisphoto/ https://www.instagram.com/kelseytravisphoto/

Hi, I’m Julia! For over 9 years, I’ve had the incredible privilege of capturing love stories and real moments that couples will cherish forever. Photography for me isn’t just about taking pictures — it’s about feeling the emotions, the small details, the laughter and tears, and turning those into timeless memories. I approach every wedding with an open heart and a curious eye, wanting to see the beauty in every glance and quiet moment. I gently guide my couples with posing in a way that feels natural and comfortable—without pressure or anything forced—and offer tips to help them relax and be themselves.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are absolutely thrilled with our engagement photos, all thanks to Julia! From the moment we first connected, she took the time to really understand who we are as a couple and what mattered most to us. She didn’t just show up with a camera—she showed up with intention, creativity, and a genuine desire to make the experience personal and meaningful. Julia tailored everything to our preferences—from the location to the vibe we were going for—and she made us feel completely at ease throughout the entire shoot. It felt more like a fun adventure than a photo session, and the result was a collection of images that truly reflect us. Every photo feels natural, romantic, and full of joy. We’re beyond grateful for Julia’s talent, warmth, and the effort she put into making this such a memorable experience. If you’re looking for someone who blends professionalism with heart, and who will go above and beyond to customize your shoot, Julia is your person. We can’t recommend her enough!

We are so happy we found Hayley! We had a small laid back wedding and wanted lots of candid photos and nothing too posed. I saw her website and knew I had to hire her, and I'm so glad I did. She was always quick to answer emails which was great. After talking about how we wanted the day to go, Hayley already had great ideas for where to take pictures. Now we have photos of all our friends and family together. Hayley was so unobtrusive she fit right in. She also took awesome photos of just the two of us with the lake at sunset. We love our wedding photos and will cherish these memories always.

Hello, I'm Kayla! Voted most likely to succeed in the field of agriculture. Yet somehow, landed here. And I wouldn't change a single thing. Life has taken me on some crazy adventures and up until 6 years ago, none of those pointed to being a photographer. Becoming a mom led me to pick up a camera and since then I haven't put it back down. I quickly developed a passion for telling people's stories. Capturing the most intimate, heartfelt moments truly sets my soul on fire.

Kayla French Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. Kayla provided great communication everything leading up to the wedding and after, and the day of she couldn't have been more helpful. Kayla's work is absolutely amazing - you can tell she loves what she does and it really shows in the beautiful photos she captured. Kayla helped in every way to contribute to our special day, and our guests really enjoyed her presence and positive energy. We are thrilled with the sneak peaks and can not wait to see final photos. We would highly recommend Kayla French Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

He answered every question we had during the planning process, was always available for a call, and his website made it simple to choose songs and customize our experience. We asked for a classy vibe during cocktail hour and dinner, and a complete switch to nightclub energy for the reception. He absolutely delivered! The dance floor was packed the entire night, and our guests could not stop raving about him. Several even told us he was the best wedding DJ they’ve ever seen. Mike handled every detail with care. He nailed our custom entrance songs, even the hard-to-find ones, and made perfect announcements that matched our energy. He took the time before the reception to gather our bridal party and family so everything flowed exactly as we wanted. The photo booth and club cannon were a huge hit, and every song was a banger. Music was one of our top priorities when planning our wedding, and choosing Mike was the best decision we made. He truly made our night unforgettable and we will forever recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding DJ!

My wedding party was not the best at listening and she was so very patient with them and me having to scream multiple times to get everyone's attention. She was such a pleasure to have at our wedding and our pictures turned out better then I could have ever imagined. Danielle has done other photography for me since my wedding. I plan to use her for all my and my families photography in the future. She has also become a wonderful friend. I highly highly recommend Danielle. I would pick her 10000 times over again!

My husband and I booked Blacktie Brothers as our videographer for our wedding in October 2023, and we could not have been more pleased. Mitchell, myself, and both of our families were SO impressed by your team at our wedding. On the day of our wedding, there were quite a few challenges to making the day go as smoothly as I had hoped, mainly the rain caused us to have to move our ceremony inside. The wedding coordinator associated with the venue did not follow up on a few of the tasks she had agreed to doing, namely being present during the photo session to make sure I was comfortable and hydrated. The entire media team at Blacktie Brothers stepped in and handled it so professionally, even getting me water when I felt faint from all of the commotion. Our day wouldn’t have gone as smoothly as it had without the help Blacktie Brothers gave us. We opted for the raw footage package, so we received an edited movie of our wedding as well as all the raw footage of our day on a thumb drive. The movie they made is amazing. The song they chose for the ceremony portion of the movie was a special choice— the lyrics reflected some aspects of our story as a couple. It was so thoughtfully crafted and makes me cry whenever I see it! The team was responsive and professional throughout the entire wedding planning process. Any question or concern we had was met with a genuine, timely response. The movie and the raw footage is now something we can have and share for the rest of our lives, and they so beautifully preserved the memory of our day. I have already recommended them to some friend getting married in upstate NY next year. Blacktie Brothers goes above and beyond, and was hands down one of our best vendors.

David and I just had our wedding here this past Saturday. I could not ask for a more perfect venue - from the scenery, the beautiful Enchantment Garden, the proximity to the Falls and downtown Ithaca, to the amazing staff, food and service, we highly recommend the Inn at Taughannock Falls for a wedding venue, as well as a place to just stay the night and have an AMAZING meal from the restaurant (which we did the Thursday night before the wedding). All of our guests loved their accommodations, and Hillside house in particular served as the best "hang out", groomsmen getting ready, and after party spot. The full kitchen came in clutch for after party snacks and getting ready food. The Victorian Inn was literally perfect for hair and makeup and the fairly new 3rd salon is the ideal set up attached to a huge balcony overlooking the lake. What really made this wedding venue was the staff though. Later into the planning process, Amanda Hickey became our planner, after our previous planner Kelsey (who was also great) left. From day one Amanda was a rockstar - she was kind, thoughtful, helpful, extremely competent and organized. I did not feel like I had to start from scratch all over again with a new planner. She picked everything right back up and was key in making our perfect wedding day become a reality! Additionally, we would like to thank Stephenie who was very helpful throughout the process (including with getting us Cornell Dairy Bar for dessert!), Chef Justin, the pastry chef, Tania-Lynn, Loma, Gillian (so helpful attending to the bride the morning of the wedding and blocking traffic at the Falls first look), Carson (our personal server through the night who was so kind!!), Chloe, and all the other banquet staff! Our food options were impeccable and, while the short rib and halibut were slightly drier than preferred, they still tasted good! The cocktail hour stations and hor d'ourves were OUTSTANDING, and I must particularly thank and call out the Inn's chef and pastry chef making gluten free versions of everything for me (from the bread course, to Lobster puff pastry, and even special muffins at the Sunday breakfast) - and they did such a good job with it!!! All in all, this place is amazing and we highly recommend people have their wedding venue here (or at least visit it!). We cannot wait to come back to visit for our anniversaries too.

From start to finish, Cassandra was professional, friendly, thoughtful and caring, ensuring every detail was attended to. The venue offers endless possibilities for a breathtaking and memorable event. Cassandra decorated our glamping site so romantically with champagne, gorgeous wood signs with our names, and more special touches. She was overly accommodating, confirming everything was ideal for us throughout the process. The venue itself provided a gorgeous, natural backdrop for our special day. We couldn't have asked for more and highly recommend Harvest Moon Venue to any couple searching for the perfect wedding location.️️️

We had Tori Vee as our DJ for our September wedding and she was amazing! So accommodating and so understanding and everyone seemed to go out of their way to tell us how much fun she made the night! She even helped w ceremony organization and took up roles where we needed someone. Even the venue and other vendors wanted her information so that they were able to recommend her to other couples because of her willingness to help, organize, and her knowledge of the wedding industry. We also had the 360 Photo Booth and from what I’m told it’s the “new” one and it was SOOO much fun! Everyone of every age loved it! We even have people telling us they loved it so much they wanna have it at their wedding. Overall Washburn Entertainment was amazing they made sure every single person at our wedding had fun, had something to dance to, and made our night so magical and memorable!

Gola Osteria Restaurant & Catering

  • Caterer
  • Starts at $1
  • Serves Beaver Dams, NY

Gola Osteria is both a fine dining Italian restaurant and catering company. Tho we specialize in Italian cuisine we are able to accommodate most styles of food for catering. We offer one on one tastings to help you chose the perfect menu for your event.

Gola Osteria was a great choice for catering! Kim was so easy to communicate with and ready to help. She was able to accommodate our request for a tasting while we were in town touring the venue, since we are from out of state. The food ended up being absolutely incredible — everything was so good. For me personally, one of the menu highlights was the butternut squash steak that we had chosen for our vegan guests, but it was so good that everyone wanted some too. Additionally, all of the catering staff working that night were so sweet, offering to help us carry our plates, which was a big help since I was wearing a heavy dress.

Where do I even begin. I called Sharon at Gilbertsville Farmhouse 8 days after Dave proposed to me. I was a bride on a mission with a vision and I knew (even after just looking at pictures online), that this was the place that would host the most special weekend of our lives. Sharon - first and foremost thank you for absolutely everything. You have a vision for design like no other and a heart of gold that shines through. To say that we love you is an understatement and I feel like we will be family forever. (Me and dave will be back every year don’t you worry). Brandon…where do I even start with you!?! Thank you for dealing with my type A personality and excel sheets seamlessly. I don’t know why things happen the way they do but I know for a fact that you were supposed to be apart of our big weekend. Thank you will never justify how we feel about you and like I already told you l, I’m never deleted our group chat because we are in fact best friends. Every couple is lucky to have you and I thank god every single second for the over the top and outstanding emotional support you provided to us. (LOL) KATIE! You are just magic, this place would not be the same without you there. I don’t know how you do what you do with such ease but I truly smile at the thought of you. I don’t want to brag but one of my favorite moments (besides the little dress flashing) will be you walking me down the aisle. I don’t think many people will be able to say that and I am honored. Chef Dakota - I will never be the same after eating your masterpieces (yes masterpieces). Food brings people together and that is exactly what you did. (That salmon - I could just die). GFH team - my goodness I love you all so much. The wedding blues are worse than normal because your team is not normal they are EXTRAORDINARY people. I will never forget this weekend and all the hard work you put into it to make sure our day was perfect, regardless of the weather. Maggie and Duke, I miss you more than you know. We love you all so much. Brides and grooms don’t hesitate on this magical place. RAIN OR SHINE they show up and show out for you. I literally walked down the aisle in the rain and I couldn’t have imagined it any other way. Side note: Queen Victoria - I’ve only seen a snippet of the photos you took and if they were the only ones I ever got I would die happy. Family forever. The Sampsons

Your wedding is a unique expression of who you are. You have a vision, and it’s time to bring that vision to life. You deserve to have a celebration as unique as you are!

Engaged Entertainment is a full-time entertainment provider, which means that your event is our 9-5 job, not just a weekend “gig.” You get more of our time and attention to make your event an unbelievable success!

Ryan was amazing and truly made our day so special! He really took time to learn about us as a couple and what our vision was for the day (even if it was a little different from the norm)! He helped map out the day, share the plan with our vendors and execute it. He even went above and beyond with some of our requests like making a custom mash up song for us. The day wouldn’t have been the same without him and our guests couldn’t say enough good things about the music!
