They answered all of my specific questions with personal responses, making the DIY flower process so easy and stress-free. The quality of their work was consistent, thorough, and truly showed how much they cared about making our day special.

My bridesmaids were doing their own hair and makeup at our wedding, so I (the bride) worked directly with Irene. The entire process was great. She is highly communicative, extremely detail-oriented, punctual, professional, and amazingly talented. Due to my sensitive skin, we used some of my products and hers. I was so grateful for her flexibility in working with my own foundation and concealer. Irene took the time to listen to truly listen to my vision and needs for hair and makeup.

My daughter got married at Cheeca Lodge in the Keys, and it was a challenge for us to plan her wedding being from out of state. Enter Julie, who was a Godsend in making sure that not only was every detail planned for the wedding, but who went above and beyond and helped us with all of the logistics for our guests’ travel, with coordinating ride shares to and from Miami Airport, with making suggestions for our rehearsal dinner off property, and who made sure that we knew all of the details to pull off a destination event. Her team provided all of my daughter’s flowers, and they were perfect for the setting. We had bright colors and tropical arrangements and Julie did a great job of creating a beautiful scene, without overcharging us on items where we didn’t need to go overboard. Not only that, she worked around our schedules for calls and was always quick to answer when we had a question. She came down twice to meet with us at the venue, and showed us around the area.

We had the best experience working with Megan for our engagement and wedding shoot. She made us feel at ease and comfortable, especially as a couple who’s not used to being in front of the camera. Once we saw our engagement shoot pictures, I knew we had made the right decision in selecting someone to capture our special day! Megan helped us develop a timeline and prioritize elements and details of our wedding that were most important for us to capture. Our whole wedding day, I felt very comfortable and confident- I knew Megan understood our vision. She was very accommodating, making sure to capture what was important to us. Again, she made being in front of the camera feel effortless. I am blown away with the sneak peek pictures we got back. She absolutely captured our vision, our guests, and my husband and I perfectly.

I'm Mary! My daytime job is being a mama to twin boys- I'd like to think I'm a cool mom. I love to work with my clients because I understand that not everyone is comfortable in front of the camera. I tend to gravitate towards the back of the camera instead of having my own photo taken. This has helped me to work with individuals on comfort and feeling natural having their photo taken. One of my main priorities (besides producing quality work) is making sure the photo experience is fun and personalized.​ I find joy in what I do and would love to be there for you and capture the real, raw, and sometimes weird feelings.

I first had Mary do my Engagement photoshoot and the photos were absolutely beautiful. I then had to hire her for my wedding. She was amazing at communicating all the way through the day of the wedding to getting my photos back. On day of my wedding she was AMAZING. While you are getting ready for your big day things can get hectic and she was able to keep up and direct with the million different things going on.

I’m so glad I used Events by Marykate! I was really overwhelmed by everything that went into planning my wedding, but Marykate made it so easy. She guided me through the whole process and made sure every detail was to my liking. Thanks to her, I got the wedding I’ve always imagined, while staying in budget (which made my hubby happy). I can’t recommend her enough, a true gem!

I have been a photographer since 2017 and have shot over 200 weddings to date. If you’re looking to add an ally to your wedding team you are in the right place! We will provide consultation to avoid the common wedding day hiccups. Whether it’s running behind schedule or securing the best available locations for your photos. Have you ever modeled before? Probably not, and that’s ok!! We have successfully worked with all personality types. Our goal is to bring your vision to life. No two weddings should be the same. We will approach your special day as a huge collaborative effort.

I was lucky enough to have Manai photograph our special day this past July. Most of the wedding was a whirlwind, so I am so grateful to have such beautiful photos of our day to look back on. Manai was great to work with and captured the day in such a beautiful way. Even better than my wedding Pinterest board could have imagined!! I am not used to taking photos so I was pretty nervous at first but he had me laughing and put me at ease in no time. Photography is such an important part of your wedding day, and you want to make sure you pick someone great. That person is Manai!! You won’t be disappointed! Manai is such a professional and talented photographer. All my photos look like they belong in a magazine. They all came out so well. I have the most beautiful photos of not only me and my husband, but our friends and family having a great time. Thank you so much for capturing the most important day of our lives. I even have a photo of me running to get margaritas post ceremony!! He didn’t miss a thing! If you are looking for the perfect person to capture your special day, this is your sign!! Just look at these stunning photos. He is the best!!!
