10/10/10/10 would recommend Chris and Limitless Entertainment to DJ your wedding, birthday or any event requiring music. Chris was very professional, super fun to work with, and had a similar music style to our, which was a benefit to making our wedding the party that wanted to go all night long. As an audio technician in the entertainment industry, my expectations were really high, but his immediate professionalism and charisma in our initial interactions are what made me want to sign a contract with them. The communication was clear and concise throughout the whole process and he made the music at my husband and I's wedding a dream come true. I literally had so many friends and family say that they couldn't stop dancing all night and that this was the most fun that they've ever had at a wedding and it was all thanks to Chris and Limitless Entertainment! Thank you for making it a night we will remember for the rest of our lives!

First and foremost, working with our coordinator Diana was an absolute joy. She is kind, organized, calm, and endlessly gracious—exactly the person you want guiding you through such an important day. Her confidence and attention to detail made the entire planning process feel manageable and reassuring, and on the wedding day itself, everything ran seamlessly. We were able to truly relax and enjoy every moment knowing we were in such capable hands. The owners of Hamilton Manor were also incredibly flexible and accommodating, which made a huge difference throughout the planning process. Every question, request, and adjustment was met with warmth and professionalism. The day-of staff—especially Hannah and Lloyd—were phenomenal. Attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely kind, they made sure everything (and everyone) was taken care of. The entire staff was outstanding, and their teamwork showed in how smoothly the day unfolded. Nothing felt rushed or out of place—it truly ran like a well-oiled machine. Our guests are still talking about how stunning the venue was. The décor, the atmosphere, and the holiday touches were absolutely magical. In fact, so many of our friends and family have used photos from our wedding as their Christmas card photos, social media profile pictures, and keepsakes—that’s how beautiful the setting was. The cocktail hour was abundant and delicious, with an impressive spread that wowed our guests, and the dessert display was just as memorable. And the food overall? Outstanding—truly restaurant-quality and beautifully presented. Hamilton Manor delivered an experience that was elegant, warm, joyful, and unforgettable.

Margaret was better than I could’ve asked! Leading up to the day she was so easy to communicate with. She created a timeline for the day and any thoughts I had she took them into account and found a way to incorporate them into the plan. Truely felt like a team because of how kind and thoughtful she is. Get to the day, she was a calming presence for sure. She showed up with a smile on her face and seamlessly cued the bridesmaids and myself throughout. She was present but didn’t hover it was the perfect balance. Along with that she was my hype girl throughout it 3 Now let’s talk about the pictures, I’m not used to getting my picture taken and feel so uncomfortable being the center of attention but she tells you every detail you need, and if something doesn’t look right she’ll correct it gracefully in the moment. I felt like I got to enjoy my day without it feeling like a photoshoot. She delivered the pictures so fast!! A couple of my bridesmaids made comments about how fast the turnaround time was…and they were breathtaking!! Better than I ever could have imagined, I can’t stop looking at them. Not a moment was missed and due to her talent we have the most perfect picture to remind us of our special day for the rest of our lives. Do yourself a favor and book with her, worth every penny.

I’m a drummer, a mother of two amazing kids, and a proud owner of an 80lb Samoyed. My passion for photography is deeply influenced by my family legacy—my grandmother was a dedicated full-time photographer who spent her life capturing and hand-coloring her own images. Growing up immersed in her art has profoundly shaped my own approach to photography. As a photographer, I'd love to capture the journey of two people in love, telling the genuine and touching story of their life together. I strive to create images that convey heartfelt narratives and reflect the true essence of your relationship and the moments you share.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Momo for our Chinese-Bengali fusion wedding celebration in lower east side of Manhattan in mid June 2024. We had a very small venue with 10 family members and 30 closest and dearest friends of ours for an intimate gathering. Momo’s camera closely followed and captured the unfolding of the event and the subtlest facial expressions of our family, guests and myself throughout the night. I got to know about her work from Red (Chinese Reddit) before entrusting her for one of the most important events of my life, but was still caught exhilarated by her work product on our event — her passion about photography and deep expertise in its technicality shined through the over 200-photo-well-woven storyline. Besides her exceptional work and high professionalism throughout our pre-and-during event communication, I appreciated her confident and genuine approach which I found down-to-earth, super helpful and reassuring — she really put in the work to understand you and amplify your shining traits. It’s such a pleasant and unforgettable experience to work with Momo. I would highly recommend her for any couples who are looking for wedding photographers.

We did a trial a few months before to see how we wanted to practice for the day of at her studio which was super convenient. We were able to make a few adjustments if needed. On my wedding day, she came so prepared and was able to do 9 girls in a fair amount of time. She even left me with a little lipstick to reapply after she left. I absolutely loved my make up, it was natural but classy without being caked on and I still felt like myself. I truly enjoy her company and her services. Her prices were very fair especially due to her certifications and experience. I've recommended her to many and my sister is even going to use her for her wedding!

We are so happy we went with Vlad for our wedding. He was so friendly and good at his job. He was able to get all the shots we wanted, and he had some photo ideas that we didn’t even think of that we are really grateful we took. He was really capturing the moment the entire time. Highly recommend choosing Vlad!

I am Paul, a husband, father, and photographer serving the east coast NY, NJ, tri-state area, and available for travel worldwide. I have a joy and enthusiasm for life, love, and marriage. I love creating beautiful photos and capturing moments and memories but more importantly I love to photograph weddings and engagements because I love marriage and the love it signifies.

Paul was absolutely incredible to work with! We had the pleasure of working with him for both our engagement shoot and wedding, and he made every moment enjoyable. From the start, Paul was kind, communicative, and incredibly creative. My husband and I can sometimes feel awkward in front of the camera, but Paul made us feel completely at ease. He avoided overly posed shots and instead guided us into natural, flattering poses, (but still fun and creative) which turned out stunning. We were a bit nervous about finding a great photo location without needing to drive somewhere else. We thought we might be able to take photos around the grounds; Paul arrived early and scouted out the best spots, ensuring we had the perfect backdrops for our pictures. We had a few edit requests, and Paul was more than accommodating. On the wedding day, he was meticulous in capturing all of our group photo requests and making sure no detail was missed. At the reception, Paul expertly documented all the little moments that will allow us to relive those joyful memories for years to come. We couldn't be happier with our photos!

THAT Entertainment is a boutique, owner‑operated DJ + live sax experience led by Lucas "DJ SAXYPANTZ". I personally handle every event, bringing a cinematic blend of high‑energy DJ performance and soulful saxophone moments tailored to each couple. My focus is creating an unforgettable atmosphere, packed dance floors, and a seamless, personalized experience from our first conversation to your last song.

Hiring DJ SAXYPANTZ was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. He brought the perfect balance of high‑energy DJ performance and soulful live sax that completely transformed the night. He read the room flawlessly and kept the dance floor full from start to finish. Even my wife — who is incredibly particular about music and atmosphere — was blown away by how personal, polished, and unforgettable the entire experience felt. If you want a wedding that feels elevated and truly one‑of‑a‑kind, DJ SAXYPANTZ is the one.
