“As someone who truly values wedding cake, there was a lot of pressure from family and friends. Victoria and I chatted directly several times, and mostly because she was so lovely I wanted to talk to her more. She is an INCREDIBLE artist with true talent for bringing flavors and designs to life. This cake was so stunning it stole the show! She is communicative, transparent, kind, and thoughtful. The entire process was executed flawlessly.”

Carmel, NY
  • Caterer
  • Starts at $3,375

Creative Foods Catering is a New York–based catering company that has served its clients with elegant events with amazing food and impeccable service for 15 years at the most reasonable rates. We are new to Zola but has had hundreds of 5 star reviews among many websites. With each menu we design and every detail we touch, we strive to create moments that feel magical—where exquisite cuisine, warm hospitality, and breathtaking presentation come together in perfect harmony. Celebrated across the New York metro area and trusted by over 60 of the region’s most exquisite venues, we are honored to be among the highest-rated caterers in the NYC Metro area, bringing world-class experiences to couples at refreshingly reasonable prices.

“We had such a wonderful experience with Creative Foods Catering for our wedding, and we truly cannot recommend them enough! From the moment we booked them about a year before our wedding, Mehmet and his wife Michelle were incredibly communicative, responsive, and helpful. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but having vendors who are reliable and easy to communicate with makes such a huge difference, and we always felt like we were in great hands with them. One of our favorite parts of the planning process was the tasting, which they hosted in our home. They made the entire experience so much fun and personal. It was clear that they genuinely cared about making sure we were happy with the menu and that everything reflected what we wanted for our wedding. They were very accommodating and made the process feel less like a formal business transaction and more like working with people who were genuinely excited to be part of our wedding. Most importantly, the food was excellent! Our guests raved about the appetizers and desserts in particular, and we heard so many compliments throughout the night. The quality was fantastic, and we were especially happy that the food was something our guests remembered and talked about after the wedding. It was clear that a lot of care went into both the preparation and presentation. Mehmet also went above and beyond for us on the actual wedding day. We decided not to have a DJ and needed some help with our ceremony music, and Mehmet was kind enough to step in and help us with it. That was something outside of what we expected from our caterer, and we really appreciated him being willing to help make sure everything went smoothly. Another thoughtful detail was that the Creative Foods team made sure to set aside appetizers specifically for us. With the wedding day being so busy and spending most of the evening talking to guests, we easily could have gone the entire night without getting a chance to eat! They made sure we had food waiting for us, which was such a small but incredibly appreciated gesture. Overall, Creative Foods Catering was amazing from start to finish. The food was delicious, the communication was excellent, and Mehmet and Michelle genuinely went above and beyond to make our wedding day special. We are so grateful we chose them for our wedding!”

Weefan Photography

Carmel, NY
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,595

My name is Lauren McCarthy. My parents, photographers Wendy & Charlie McCarthy began Weefan Photography in 2001. At 11, I started watching them photograph events and weddings, and the first wedding I photographed, just as I remember my first day of school. For the past fourteen years, I have mastered each and every job related to the wedding photography business. After graduating from Siena college in 2019, I was invited by my parents to manage our family's business of professional photography, and assume the duties of managing our New York Office. ​

“Weefan was referred to us by my husband's best friend and I was not disappointed. Lauren was so amazing to work with from the moment I reached out to even after my wedding. She's very responsive and knowledgeable about the industry and it's different trends. The day of the wedding, Lauren and her team came in and took control. There wasn't one moment I was worried things weren't going to come out how I wanted them. They even stayed a little later to take a few extra family photos for us. When we got our sneak peeks back, I was absolutely in love! They were amazing and I cannot wait to receive the rest of our photos! If you're thinking of booking Weefan Photography, definitely do it. You will not be disappointed!”

They’re great at taking direction if you have requests but are also assertive and creative in setting up poses and backdrops. Having two photographers resulted in TONS of shots and adequate getting ready time with both bride and groom. They’re also the nicest people and delivered the photos promptly. Our friends and family were floored by how beautiful our photos are. Definitely recommend!”

Hi, I’m Richard, a wedding photographer based in the Hudson Valley. My passion is finding the beauty in the simplest moments and capturing them in a way that feels raw, real, and full of life. As a candid, photojournalist photographer, I’m all about ditching stiff poses to focus on the relationships, the laughs, and the genuine emotions that tell your distinct story. I aim to capture the little details and authentic moments that make your day uniquely yours.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Richard is the VIBE! I can't give enough stars! From the unexpectedly windy engagement shoot, to the magic of the 1st look, to the moody magazine worthy portraits, to capturing the best moments all night..he adapted and integrated himself into our day and our family with ease. He blended into the background and truly felt like he was part of the party! Richard is a true professional! He comes off super relaxed and casually says he "has some ideas" and then he turns on the magic. He plays with the lighting and the surroundings and the weather and adapts any moment and any backdrop into a canvas for his art. I really could go on for paragraphs over how spectacular he was to work with, and it brings tears to my eyes to write this after I relive our wedding day in each and every photograph he took that day. I can feel every moment all over again and it is truly remarkable! Thank you Richard for becoming part of our family! xoxo -Lauren and Chris”

“We cannot recommend Black Walnut Farm enough—it was the perfect place for the wedding of our dreams! From the breathtaking forest ceremony site that felt like stepping into a fairytale, to the warm and vibrant barn that created the ideal setting for our reception and dance party, to the sprawling wildflower gardens that surrounded our golden cocktail hour — every part of the venue is magical. The venue owners, Sarah and Jim, were incredible to work with—so flexible and supportive in helping us create a wedding that truly reflected us. They not only encouraged our own ideas but also suggested thoughtful details we wouldn’t have considered on our own, making our day even more special. It felt like a true collaboration and both my wife and I felt understood by them in this partnership. What really stood out is how effortlessly beautiful and well-equipped the venue is. We only added some simple table flowers, and that was it! It’s truly a “ready-to-go” venue that makes wedding planning so much easier while still looking stunning. We’re already looking forward to attending more events at Black Walnut Farm so we can keep the connection to this incredible place. It’s not just a venue—it’s a place that feels alive with love and celebration. If you’re considering it for your wedding, stop searching—you’ve found your perfect spot!”

“In today's world everything is extremely overpriced and service is terrible. My wedding was very stressful for me because of this. I did not have a DJ or a Photographer and honestly was considering just something small scale, until I talked to Ed from DJ Double E. I would give them 10 stars out 5. From the minute I talked to Ed it was a breath of fresh air from the million other outrageously priced DJ's. The price is unbeatable but that's not why I would recommend them. They are absolutely phenomenal and made my entire wedding. The music was perfect from ceremony to the last dance. They were so professional, so involved and so fun. We had a daytime (early) wedding. It is so challenging to get people up and have a good time at 12:30 in the afternoon, I was having meltdowns about it, they reassured me but had the entire place up and having fun. You didn't know if it was day or night. They helped us more than the attendants at the venue. Over 100 guests said how amazing they were. The pictures they took could not be any better. Any other DJ who had packages like this (photo booth etc...) were THOUSANDS, yes THOUSANDS, more!!! I really hate to admit but I'm not easily pleased however I would put my name on the line for DJ Double E after how they made my wedding. DJ Double E exceeded all my and my husband's expectations and -consider yourself lucky if you hire them for any event. I'll be calling them again!!!”

I’m Matthew, a documentary wedding photographer based in Garrison, NY. I’ve photographed weddings for a decade, alongside a 15-year teaching career. The classroom shapes how I work: I meet every situation with empathy, plan carefully with you beforehand, and stay calm when the day gets busy. About 90% of my coverage is candid. I blend in and witness what unfolds, then step in with light direction for family photos and portraits. Couples tell me they forgot I was there, and my favorite compliment is that guests thought I was a family member with a camera. I work with all couples and celebrate every kind of love.

“Matthew was truly beyond incredible. Words can hardly do him justice. From the moment he arrived, his calm, kind, and grounding energy set the tone for the entire evening. Beyond his amazing presence, his work speaks for itself. The photos left us absolutely speechless. Every image looked like it belonged in a magazine, yet still felt so personal and full of heart. He captured the perfect balance of candid moments and thoughtful details, each shot filled with genuine emotion and artistry. You can feel the love and care he pours into his work. Matthew is such a rare soul, unbelievably talented, but also deeply good-hearted. We’ll cherish these photos forever and will always be so grateful that he was the one who captured our day. He’s not just highly recommended, he’s a must-hire for your wedding or any event where you want stunning, heartfelt photos that truly tell your story.”

Jesse and Justin have been playing music together since they met performing in a band at Disneyland in 2001. After moving to Beacon, NY around the same time, it made sense to start an official wedding music business to share their love of music with some of the many happy couples getting married in the Hudson Valley. One thing they love about playing music for weddings is the variety that is required of them. Every gig is different and they all happen on one of the happiest days of the clients' lives!

Awarded Best of Zola
“We could not have been happier with Skylark Music they were incredible to work with! From the very beginning, Justin spent months helping us think through every detail—offering great suggestions and thoughtful input that really helped set the tone for each part of the day. For our wedding, we had the Skylark ensemble play live music during the ceremony and cocktail hour, and they were absolutely fantastic. The live jazz and covers created the perfect atmosphere—elegant but still relaxed and fun. When it was time for dinner and the reception, Justin seamlessly transitioned to his DJ setup, keeping the energy flowing with an amazing mix of songs that got everyone on the dance floor. Having both live music and a DJ through Skylark was one of the best decisions we made—it gave us the best of both worlds and made the whole evening feel special and dynamic. We can’t recommend Justin and Skylark Music enough!”

Paul and his team provided a truly professional experience, with top-notch equipment and amazing value for the services they delivered. They worked tirelessly as our hard-working entertainers, genuinely caring about making our special day a blast. The reception environment was such an active party - at one point, I went back to the head table to get water and no one was sitting, as people were fully dancing or enjoying the music from the sidelines. Even when we had to make some last-minute changes to the day's details, Paul was able to roll with it seamlessly, even practicing our long last name until he got it right. The remainder of the reception was an absolute blast, with people dancing through the entire end of the night. It was truly the best day and party we could have had, and we would hire Valentino Entertainment, LLC again in a heartbeat. The photobooth was also a great value-add.”

I provide professional sound, immersive dance-floor lighting, uplighting, and a photo booth guests love — so you can relax and fully enjoy an unforgettable night.

“Booking DJ Ore was one of the best calls we made for our wedding. From our first phone call to the last song at 1am, he was on top of everything — quick to respond, organized, and genuinely invested in getting our day right. We got married at a camp in the Catskills with the ceremony out in the woods, which meant some tricky logistics: separate sound for the ceremony in the trees, load-in with the venue staff, a timeline that kept shifting on him. Ore handled all of it and we never had to think about any of it. The music was unreal, and he kept the dance floor packed the entire night. Our guests basically refused to leave it, and we honestly lost count of how many people came up to us throughout the night to say how good the music and the DJ were. The thing I'll always remember, though, is how he made space for my Tío to play. My Tío sang and played guitar, and Ore made sure he had everything he needed to do it right. He and Chris brought so much energy and just knew how to keep the room going. If you want a DJ who's professional, easy to talk to, and cares about your day, book him. Thank you for everything, Ore — you gave us a night we won't forget. Cannot recommend enough.”

You know that all encompassing feeling when you’re revisiting a vivid memory? You can smell the fresh air, feel the way the sun hits your face just so, hear the voice of the loved one next to you, remember the joke that they delivered and instantly you’re laughing all over again. That magic is what I hope to capture as your photographer. It’s my job to hold those moments in time so that they don’t have to fade. You’ll forever be able to revisit the moment, see the exact way they smiled, revisit that incredible sunset, relive the memory and turn back time.

“If I could give Jessica 10/5 stars I would. From the communication, the warmth and friendliness, and her ability to see a couple as they are and capture that magic - Jessica was our absolute best decision during the wedding planning process. Our engagement photo shoot absolutely blew us away and she treated us like friends (and supermodels). Jessica helped us write our entire wedding day - of timeline (minus the DJ stuff) the month prior. Then came the day of the wedding - Jessica acted as an expert photographer, coordinator, delegator to the bridal party (our party needed wrangling at times!!), and absolutely stood up for us and our wishes every single step of the way. She saw my face get a little overwhelmed at one point when our family arrived for early photos, and she whisked me away and got me a drink of ice water and checked in. She knew just from a glance that that’s what I needed. We just got our sneak peek photos from her and I am again amazed by Jessica. These photos well exceed all expectations and we feel like royalty looking at them. If you are looking for not only an incredible photographer, but the coolest person to work with (who will also go to bat for you on your most important day), choose Jessica Yurko!!”

“From the moment I met Justine, I knew Mills Memories was an awesome wedding planner. She listened to the very creative couple on their ideas and helped plan each one to make it happen. The information she shared with me as a fellow vendor was a blessing! It was only the details that mattered, direct, to the point, no fluff, beautifully outlined and easy to understand. You want someone like her to focus on essential information without all the unnecessary distractions. I appreciate this, as it's completely different and better than most planners I've worked with. The quality of her work and dedication is truly high-end and professional. She went with the flow and kept the entire day running smoothly. I highly recommend Mills Memories!”

“Lisa was absolutley incredible to work with. From our first phone call I knew she was someone I'd be friends with. She is down to earth, funny and obviously knows what she is doing. Lisa communicated clearly with us and set up multiple meetings and phone calls and answered every text I sent in a timely manner. On our wedding day she was simply amazing. She helped me get dressed and probably did my bustle for me at least 5 times. She kept the mood light and fun and worked so efficiently we were able to enjoy our cocktail hour. I cannot recommend her enough. We just got our sneak peeks back and I am obsessed!”

I’m Tasha, a photographer with a documentary approach and a background in fine art. I work with both digital and 35mm and 120mm film, as well as Super 8, to create images that are honest, atmospheric, and full of texture. My focus is on capturing the energy, connection, and feeling of a day without over-directing. Inspired by visual culture and storytelling, I aim to make work that feels personal and lasting.

“Tasha was absolutely wonderful to work with! Her style is whimsical and talent is top notch! She took our engagement photos, baby announcement, and wedding photos. We are soooo happy with how everything turned out and loved our experience with Tasha. She made us feel so comfortable and happy and anyone would be lucky to have her be your photographer! She went above and beyond and can’t thank her enough for a lifetime of memories captured. :-)”

“Lynette and Bryndon are the best around! I used them for both my photo and video, and they give you nothing but perfection! Everything came out better than I expected. They arrived on time if not early. They were very respectful in the church. They learned my entire bridal party’s names so instead of saying “you” and pointing, they said their actual names. They were very encouraging to my husband and I throughout the day, and very helpful with anything we needed. They also were very helpful before the wedding day. Lynette helped me figure out timing for the day, and that truly helped it run smoothly and on time. They gave us a large “sneak peak” within two weeks of the wedding, and then had the entire wedding album back around 3 months. The videos came back about a month and a half after the wedding. They shot my cousins wedding back in 2021, and my friends wedding in 2023 so by my wedding they truly felt like the are apart of my family. I highly recommend pioneer media for your photography and videography needs!!”
