Awarded Best of Zola
We were gifted a beautiful live painting created by Kaitlin for our wedding by a family member. It was one thing I really wanted for our big day, and Kaitlin did such an amazing job! She was set up to the side of our ceremony and captured our first kiss. She continued to paint throughout the evening and our guests really enjoyed watching her. She presented our painting to us during the reception and we took it home that night! We will keep it for years to come and it is something even our kids will admire someday. Cannot recommend Kaitlin enough!

From the seating chart, to the placecards, to the menu cards, and signage, everything was so accurate and polished looking! Lauren set out all the items for us and I didn’t have to worry about handling any of it on my wedding day! I highly recommend hiring a day of paper designer to pull your wedding theme all together!

FêteFone® is a modern twist on the traditional guest book—where guests talk instead of write. Using a stylish vintage phone, your loved ones can leave heartfelt, funny, and unforgettable voice messages that capture the true spirit of your celebration. Your big day goes by in a flash, but with FêteFone, you’ll have the voices, laughter, and love preserved forever. Imagine hearing your grandmother’s kind words, your best friend's inside jokes, or the excitement in your guests’ voices—all at the lift of a receiver. FêteFone helps you capture the magic of your celebration—the joy, the tears, the laughter—in a way you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

We were initially drawn to FêteFone because it was such a fun and different idea—but I had no idea just how meaningful it would become. Hearing our grandparents’ voices, our best friends cracking up, and even the sweet slurred messages from our dance floor crew—it all made us laugh and cry in the best way. The setup was truly plug-and-play. We now keep our vintage mint-green FêteFone displayed on a shelf at home, and every so often we pick up the receiver just to relive that joy. It’s not just a guest book—it’s a time capsule of love. I can’t recommend it enough.

You mail them back, and we make you something precious to have and to hold, forever!

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn’t be happier with our experience using Unity in Glass for our unity ceremony! Since we were planning a destination wedding, we wanted something beautiful, symbolic, and easy to travel with—and this was exactly that. Instead of dealing with sand or candles that can be messy or hard to transport, Unity in Glass offered a meaningful and elegant alternative that truly captured the spirit of our day. Our guests were captivated by the idea, and we loved the thought of turning this moment into a lasting piece of art for our home. The process was seamless from start to finish. Everything arrived on time, well-packaged, and the instructions were incredibly easy to follow. Knowing we’d get a custom-blown glass sculpture made from the very crystals we poured during the ceremony made it feel so special and unique to us. If you're planning a destination wedding—or just want a fresh take on the unity ceremony—this is hands-down one of the best choices you can make. Highly recommend!

Maya Moves - Wedding Dance Lessons 
Rating: 5.0 (25 reviews)
  • Dance classes
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Cary, NC

Maya Moves was created for couples who want to feel confident on the dance floor without committing to multiple lessons. The private one-hour session begins by reviewing your wedding details and song. Your dance is kept short (about 1:30–2 minutes) so it feels natural and easy to remember. You’ll learn how to stand comfortably together and 3–4 signature moves (a dip, a spin, and moments that fit your song’s vibe). No traditional ballroom steps, just modern, natural movement that looks effortless. You record videos at the end to help when practicing. Maya Moves offers private wedding dance lessons in NYC and over Zoom.

Awarded Best of Zola
Maya makes first dances unbelievably easy! I'm not a dancer whatsoever and was pretty nervous to dance in front of people, but we did one hour with her at a studio in midtown and we left feeling ready to go by the end! She has a really upbeat, fun personality and breaks down the dances in a what that anyone can understand. We really didn't want the dance to feel too choreographed and she taught us something that felt natural but gave us more to do than just stand and sway. We ended up changing our first dance song a few weeks before the wedding and we were able to use the exact same dance she taught with the new song. 100000% recommend to make first dances easy!

Founded by friends Chris and Tyler – two good friends who met while studying at the University of Michigan’s School of Music – Ringback Memories began when Chris’s sister wanted an authentic, affordable audio guestbook for her wedding. We believe saving heartfelt messages, laughter, and voices shouldn't cost a fortune. That’s Ringback Memories.

RingBack Memories was a beautiful part of my special day. The phone was such a hit and everyone enjoyed leaving me a personal message. I laughed and cried hearing all of the heartfelt messages from my friends and family. I highly recommend RingBack Memories. They are super professional and the edited recordings came back to me within days of the party.

Perfect wedding day ride. The booking part felt almost too easy, like one of those rare moments when everything just clicks. Our driver showed up early, helped shuffle coolers and random snack bags without a single complaint, and carried himself with this calm, steady vibe that settles your nerves without trying to. When the weather flipped on us and we had to switch photo spots on the fly, he adjusted without making it feel like a big deal. That small bit of grace mattered more than I expected.

Designed for elegance and subtlety, our diffusers transform any space with refined, customizable scenting.

Awarded Best of Zola
Scenting my clients’ weddings has been a total game changer! The fragrance is never overpowering and quickly masks any lingering venue odors (like food, old carpets, or dated furniture). I even used it for outdoor weddings and guest are always amazed it smells so good. For larger venues or outdoors, I’ve had the RTS team handle setup, while other times I rent and set it up myself (super easy with their step-by-step instructions). To get the most value, I use The Event package for both the ceremony and reception. I start it on a low setting for the ceremony, then move it to the ballroom at the start of cocktail hour—by the time guests arrive, the reception smells amazing. Two spaces beautifully scented for the price of one!

I’ll be honest: when my fiancé suggested using an AI texting assistant for our wedding, I rolled my eyes. I pictured something clunky or robotic. But Festa turned out to be a genuinely helpful tool. Guests could text questions and get instant, accurate answers — no one had to call us or bug our planner about shuttle times or dress code. When we ran into a small issue setting it up, the founders responded quickly and kindly (yes, real humans!). They’re clearly trying to build something thoughtful, not just flashy tech for tech’s sake. Would use it again in a heartbeat.
