  • Photographer

I've been working professionally as a photographer for 13 years and I've shot countless weddings, events, concerts, parties, and portraits. I capture the magic of your day while respecting that your guests are there to see YOU not me, and often my couples' favorites are the photos they didn't realize I took. My eyes are always everywhere and I often hear, "I can't believe you caught that!" My concert work has been published in dozens of local, national and international online and print publications such as Revolver, Spin, Billboard, The New York Times, USA Today, MAC Life, Fake Walls, The NJ Underground, Jersey Beat, and IFC to name a few.

We had our wedding at the Ryland Inn in August and it was absolutely perfect! The Ryland was the first place we toured when we were looking at wedding venues, and nowhere else came close to comparing. We had Giana as our event stylist and she was amazing – answering all of our questions, knowing every detail, and making the entire process seamless. Giana walked us through the entire wedding planning process and was essential to making the day so perfect. The morning of we got ready in the Hayloft, and it was nice being close to see everything being set up. We were in the Grand Ballroom, the inside of which is beautiful with the chandeliers and fireplace, and so is the outdoor area. The food was outstanding and received so many compliments from our guests. I’m so happy we chose the Ryland Inn!

WOW, SPECTACULAR, AMAZING, FANTASTIC…These are all words we would use to describe Chris and all of Limitless Entertainment. We had the pleasure of booking Chris for our wedding during his busy schedule and we could not have made a better choice. He made sure we had everything we wanted and more! From providing music for our ceremony, reception, and after party, to all the amazing details including dancing on the clouds, cold sparklers, CO2 gun (my favorite), handouts, all kinds of lighting that really set the scene, as well as Photo Booth for our guests to help us capture the evening! He was a one stop shop which made it incredibly easy to work with only one vendor for all of our entertainment needs. He ensured all of our music was exactly what we wanted and did a fantastic job MC’ing the evening.

At Wed By Norm, I design wedding ceremonies that feel powerful, personal, and unforgettable. I’m Norman I. Graham, a professional wedding officiant trusted by couples across NY, NJ, CT, PA, RI, and destination locations who want their ceremony to be the moment everyone remembers. My signature strength is transforming your love story into a ceremony that feels authentic, intentional, and emotionally resonant for both you and the people who came to celebrate you. My role is to listen carefully, understand what matters most to you, and craft a ceremony that reflects your values, culture, humor, and connection.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’ve known Norman (and the newlyweds) for years, and watching him lead the ceremony was truly amazing. I had the pleasure of being a bridesmaid, and they honestly couldn’t have picked a better officiant! He made everything feel so warm and personal, heartfelt, and even a little fun! He gave us smiles, he gave us laughs, and he perfectly captured the couple’s personalities. Weddings can be hectic and stressful, but he made sure that on the big day they were calm, confident, and completely at ease in front of everyone. It was very natural, very organic, and I loved that. The ceremony flowed beautifully, and so many of us were smiling, laughing, and even tearing up at the perfect moments. The bridesmaids cried, the groomsmen cried, we all cried. But it was all happy tears, such a beautiful thing to be apart of! We all had such a great time, and you could just tell how much thought and care he put into making their day special. If you want someone who’s professional, warm, and makes the whole experience unforgettable, someone who’s going to reflect on your personalities and your journey as a couple, and someone to really move and make your guests feel that love in the atmosphere, Norman is the man to call! You surely won’t regret it.

This review is long overdue! My husband and I had the wonderful Tiara officiate our wedding 04/20/2023, and she helped make our experience so enjoyable! Not only was she professional, but also compassionate, personable, and helped us with our vows when we were both too overwhelmed to speak. She gave our guests a beautiful explanation of our love for each other, and included a “couple therapy-esque” meeting to get to know us before the wedding, and ended in me having happy tears expressing my love towards my husband during such a stressful time. She gets a 10 out of 10 from us! Make sure you book her for your upcoming wedding!

The Silo was a dream wedding venue! The high ceilings, gorgeous chandeliers, and amazing backlighting led to wonderful pictures. We had several guests comment on how beautiful the venue was. We utilized floating candles for our centerpieces which played amazingly with the added candles provided by the Farmhouse. The staff was attentive, helpful, and communicative. They paid attention to detail and were always available to put our minds at ease. We also rented the bridal suite and groom’s suite. Both suites were spacious, filled with entertainment, and included private bathrooms and mini fridges. There was plenty of space for my hair and makeup team.. We all had a wonderful time getting ready for the wedding. The food and chef were absolutely incredible. We were able to completely customize the menu by adding things like garlic mashed potatoes and chicken francese. What really stood out is that it felt like we were giving our guests a high end restaurant meal, rather than cookie cutter wedding food.

Anthony was a pleasure to work with. We loved his easy going personality. My husband and I hit it off with him immediately. We loved how he let us customize our entire wedding playlist which was so impressive. His portal for uploading music was so easy to use. Anthony was very thorough leading up to the wedding. He was great at communicating. Anthony was able to make a lot of special requests like having my husband sing at the wedding. A few minor things happened at the wedding like the mic did not work, but Anthony was able to work through it. My venue also didn’t let him dim the lights down initially, but he eventually figured out a way to do it, so the dance floor can be lit. All in all, we are so happy we booked All in Entertainment for our wedding.

I texted Laura the day of my wedding because I felt like she needed to know my first tears were shed when I saw my bouquet. Words cannot describe how perfect it was. Laura took everything me and my partner asked for and ran with it. Florals were a very big piece of our wedding and I really feel like we asked the perfect person to bring them to life. Not only were the florals perfect but my mom stopped me the day after my wedding just to tell me she ran into Laura and she was "just so kind". 100/10 would recommend hiring her for your wedding.

Hey It's Amalia & Jenna! 🌈 A wife and wife duo who as real life partners bring that same level of trust, teamwork, and care into every wedding we’re part of. With backgrounds in hospitality, design, and event planning, we work side by side to create celebrations that feel organized, thoughtful, and beautifully put together! Our name comes from the butterfly effect the idea that small, intentional moments can turn into something truly special. We’re big believers that it’s the little details, thoughtful choices, and behind the scenes care that end up making the biggest difference on your wedding day, and that mindset guides everything we do!

Awarded Best of Zola
I genuinely don't know how we could have pulled off our wedding without The Butterfly Effect. Amalia and Jenna were, without a doubt, the most important part of making our wedding day what it was. We had our first meeting in late June. Because of a family illness, I wanted to get married in August, which meant asking them to plan an entire wedding in four weeks during peak wedding season. I was stressed about the timeline and about the fact that this wasn't how I'd envisioned getting married. Amalia and Jenna understood the sensitivity right away and told us they'd get it done. We wanted the night to feel untraditional and intimate: about us, our families, everyone together, without the typical wedding "fluff." We started without much of a vision, and they helped us build one from the ground up, always pushing us toward what we actually wanted rather than what was expected. The planning itself felt seamless, we met once or twice a week and stayed in constant touch over WhatsApp. They'd pull things up on Canva during calls and make edits live, so I could see what something would look like instead of imagining it from a description, and they never blinked at going through multiple versions of something to get it right. They also had an incredible eye for the details that made our wedding feel so personal: staying up late to perfect signage and menus, working our dog (and the six other dogs and cat in our families) into the napkin designs, bringing their own decor and supplies for everything from the card box to the matchbook bowls. They walked us through big venue decisions, like backyard wedding vs restaurant buyout, without ever steering us toward whatever was easier for them. And the vendor team they built around our day was a dream team; every vendor raved about working with them. On the day itself, every detail was perfect. They were always nearby when we needed them and completely invisible to our guests, like having two extra maids of honor who happened to know how to run a wedding. At the end of the night, exhausted, we didn't have to think about cleanup or getting our things home, they handled it. The entire day was the most warm, intimate, beautiful, happy, and genuinely "us" evening we could have imagined. So many people asked how we pulled off a wedding like this in four weeks. The answer is Amalia and Jenna. They are highly talented, organized, creative, thoughtful, responsive, and truly care about their clients. But more than anything, we just connected with them. They made us feel so secure throughout a process that could have been incredibly overwhelming, and they made the beginning of our marriage feel so positive and joyful. I am so, so grateful that we found them. I am going to miss them so much, I’d have another wedding just to work with them again. If you are considering The Butterfly Effect, hire them!!!

Victoria did makeup for my wedding (myself, mother of bride and groom, and bridesmaids) and did the most amazing job. She is professional, adaptable, and organized. On top of this, she is incredibly friendly and talented. Everyone looked so beautiful. She was able to do all different types of looks to make everyone feel so beautiful. She does a trial and is willing to try all different types of looks. She provides advice and listens to exactly what you want. She asks questions and ensures you feel comfortable. I thought I wanted one look but ended up going in a different direction on my wedding day and she captured my vision so well, even better than I imagined.

We had our wedding at the Park Chateau, and from start to finish, the experience was flawless. There’s a reason the Park Chateau is considered the best wedding venue in the state — it’s simply unmatched! The venue is the epitome of luxury, with both the outdoor and indoor spaces being breathtakingly beautiful. The grounds are impeccably maintained, from the vibrant flowers to the tranquil water features. It truly felt like stepping into a fairytale. Guests were absolutely blown away by the setting alone. Every detail, from the architecture to the gardens, was picture-perfect, creating an atmosphere that felt elegant, timeless, and incredibly special. The food was also exceptional! The cocktail hour alone was a standout — our guests couldn’t stop raving about the variety, presentation, and flavor of every dish. Many were genuinely surprised when dinner was served afterward, assuming the cocktail hour had been the main meal because it was that impressive. Both the quantity and quality of the food exceeded all expectations. We received so many compliments from guests about how it was the best wedding food they’d ever had. Most standout, however, was their service. The Park Chateau has an entire team of dedicated professionals who made sure every single detail was executed seamlessly. From bridal attendants literally on their knees scrubbing dirt off my dress, to staff ensuring we always had a drink or a bite to eat, we felt completely cared for the entire day. They checked in on us constantly but never intrusively, even bringing water around while we danced to keep us hydrated and energized. Our families were treated with such respect and warmth, and their kindness and attentiveness were noticed by everyone. The team brought our vision to life with minimal effort on our part, allowing us to be fully present and soak in every moment. The Park Chateau is a premium venue, but it is worth every single penny. It gave us the wedding of our dreams!!

Kyle and Erica are creative artists, fair businesspeople, and friendly humans - we highly recommend hiring Impossible Entertainment for your wedding or event.

Jamie Bodo Photography

  • Photographer

  • Serves Carteret, NJ

When you hire Jamie you actually GET Jamie as your photographer on your wedding day! Why? 1. I LOVE photographing weddings! (I don’t want to send someone else to “do it for me” 🤪) 2. If you’re reading this, then you’re at the stage right now where you are researching individual photographers style, reading reviews showing their reputation, and scheduling a call to research their personality while sharing your vision. …. Now imaging doing all that work just for a “team member” or “an associate” photographer to show up on your wedding day? CRAZY RIGHT?! When you hire Jamie, your date is locked in FOR YOU, no unwanted surprises!

We couldn’t be happier with our decision to hire Jamie for our wedding this month! From the very first consultation to the previews and image gallery delivery, she was professional, responsive, and genuinely passionate about her work. On the wedding day, Jamie had an incredible eye for detail and managed to capture every meaningful moment. She made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera, even the camera-shy family members. The entire process felt effortless, and the photos are absolutely stunning! Our wedding day went by in a blur, but thanks to Jamie we have these beautiful, authentic images to look back on for the rest of our lives!

  • Beauty professional
  • Starts at $200
  • Serves Carteret, NJ

We are a Luxury on-location Bridal Hair and Makeup service located in NJ. We also serve NY, PA, CT and beyond. Whether you are saying "I do." in an intimate garden, a glamorous ballroom, or a scenic destination, our team is ready to travel to make your beauty dreams a reality.

Feeling spectacular for any event is key and Arianna and the Something Glam team always deliver with hair and makeup. Having my hair and makeup done gives me a huge boost of confidence and a sigh of relief knowing it’s perfection. From grand weddings to birthday occasions, we always contact her for events. She listens to your opinion, wants to know your likes and dislikes, and gives suggestions to ensure you’re confident. Having them on my wedding day eased everyone and truly felt like a pampered session. Making sure everybody is feeling positive, Arianna and her team are patient with listening while you show inspiration. Even with last minute changes no one was rushed and time was efficient. She always checks everybody in the group before leaving. Everyone is important. Trust her judgment and advice. My hair is fine but she worked her magic with my extensions that I asked for advice with quality and she even helped me pick the correct color. Our wedding was on a sunny Labor Day but my hair never fell flat, curls lasted days, makeup stayed flawless all night. Make sure you get close up photos of all the details. Truly felt beautiful and confident that day knowing my hair was perfect. Can't express the gratitude we always experience when we book a session or day with Arianna. I’ve always referred her to everyone so they can experience what we always do. 5 stars.

NJ Wedding Ceremonies

  • Officiant
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $165
  • Serves Carteret, NJ

If you’re here, it’s probably because you are looking for the right person to give you a special, personalized ceremony. I've presided over hundreds of ceremonies like that for couples just like you. “Choosing Ken will be the most important choice that you will make planning your wedding.” - Christian H., High Lawn Pavilion “Ken created an absolutely unique ceremony for us. People laughed, cried, and were just in awe with the ceremony. It was absolutely the most memorable part of the day.” – Megan P., Ground for Sculpture “Not only did we love him, but our guests couldn’t stop raving about him.” – Christina J., Bonnet Island Estate

Ken was great! I had no idea what I wanted for my ceremony. Ken went through a ton of possibilities created a form to guide me and my now husband through the process. We missed our opportunity to connect due to my wedding party being late and we missed our opportunity to connect the day of the wedding, but he was waiting for us at the altar prepared to deliver his speech. After the ceremony he got our witnesses to sign marriage certificate and later filed it with the town

Lisa was the best choice for our wedding photography. She communicated with us every step of the way, providing detailed timelines and ensuring we captured all the special moments we envisioned. She and her husband Peter were consummate professionals - gently guiding us to stay on schedule while being tactful and discreet. Most importantly, they were both so warm and kind. My family and wedding party absolutely loved working with them, and that positive energy shines through in their photographs. The images perfectly capture the joy and love from our special day.
