We started the wedding planning process by starting to look at venues. Falkirk was the first venue we had toured and immediately fell in love with it. From seeing the golf course, the waterfall, the gazebo, and incredible views, it was breathtaking and we imagined ourselves getting married there immediately. We met with Andrea during our tour, and had the pleasure of getting to work with her throughout our planning process, and was absolutely incredible on the day of our wedding! She made herself available to answer our (many) questions, going over timelines, and ensuring that our vision and dreams for the day came true. They had it all, from phenomenal staff to incredible food, not to mention the stunning views. We could not have asked for better! They truly make you feel like a VIP throughout the entire wedding weekend. Andrea was an absolute gem to work with, and made sure everything we dreamed of came true. And when we got the opportunity to have fireworks during our reception?! To this day, we have friends and family still talking about the firework show. Andrea worked seamlessly with other vendors and the firework staff to make sure it was a surprise show that no one would forget. Our wedding day was a dream, and we are so glad we had it at the Falkirk Estate and Country Club. We are so incredibly happy we got the pleasure to work with them, and would recommend any couples that are starting the wedding planning process, to reach out to them.

Skylark Music 
Rating: 5.0 (50 reviews)
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Central Valley, NY

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
Justin was a pleasure to work with from the initial interview to the last song at our wedding. Justin played with a three piece band for our ceremony (guitar, piano, bass) and cocktail hour (saxophone, piano, bass) and then DJ'd our reception. Justin made sure that the music played at our wedding and cocktail hour was tailored to specifically match the vibe of our dinner playlist. He even surprised us by playing one of our favorite Herbie Hancock tunes during cocktail hour. The vibe of the live jazz trio during cocktail hour was a perfect transition over to dinner. Justin then switched over to DJ our dinner and reception afterwards. He played all the right songs to keep the dance floor flowing all night. If you are seeking a combination of live music and DJ at your wedding I would highly recommend Skylark Music.

I recently got married on 6/1/24 & let me tell you, I am SO happy I found Annaliese & Co. for my big day. Specifically, Frann! Frann did my wedding day hair & did such a beautiful job. I have super thick, yet fine hair, so it can be difficult to work with sometimes & my hair stayed ALL NIGHT! From 10am until 1am - my hair didn’t move. All my bridesmaids loved their hair as well! We had a big bridal party (myself, 8 bridesmaids, 2 moms) & Frann and her partner were so efficient & quick! We had plenty of time for touch-ups & she spent a generous amount of time perfecting my hair. Not only is Frann very professional & super talented but she is such a sweet & funny person! She listened to everything I wanted for my wedding day hair & answered all questions during my trial. For your wedding day you want to hire someone that is not only good at their job but brings positive & fun vibes and Frann did exactly that. I’m so so blessed to have had Frann for my wedding day - she’s absolutely wonderful & was such a crucial part of my big day! :)

f you are an anxious bride, do yourself a favor and hire Eddie immediately. Hiring him was truly the best decision I made for our wedding! From the moment we booked, his communication was phenomenal, which completely put me at ease. On the big day, he brought such a calming energy, focused entirely on making sure we were having fun, and even stepped in to fix my veil! Beyond being an incredible photographer, he is a master of crowd control—he seamlessly wrangled my absolutely wild family, kept us perfectly on schedule, and always had everyone laughing. His level of organization is unmatched. Even though it was freezing cold and pouring rain, he didn't hesitate to go outside with Ryan and me at the venue, and the pictures turned out absolutely amazing. We are so incredibly grateful

Bekah was AMAZING to work with!!! She is friendly, responsive, reliable, and so so talented! I had a wonderful bridal trial with her. She made me feel comfortable and confident in the look we created together. She is very skilled at color-matching and blending to create a natural, glowing look.

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our son's wedding than Jessica Yurko. Not only is she an incredibly talented professional, but she’s also a dear friend whose warmth and attention to detail made the whole experience even more special. From the very beginning, Jess and her second shooter Amanda brought so much care and enthusiasm to every moment. She took the time to truly understand our vision, capturing each intimate and candid moment with grace and precision. Her ability to blend into the background while still getting those unforgettable shots was remarkable. The photos are absolutely stunning—each one tells a beautiful story of the day, from the big, joyous moments to the small, quiet ones. Her eye for composition and lighting is unparalleled, and the results speak for themselves. We feel so grateful to have had Jess as both a friend and the photographer for such an important occasion. Her passion for her craft shines through in every shot, and we’ll cherish these memories forever.

Hi! I am a professional makeup artist specializing in bridal! I have been in the wedding industry since 2018 and loving every second of it. I am so grateful for each and every one of my brides that trust my team and I on their big day!

I had reached out to an artist a number of my friends used for my wedding, when she wasn’t available she reached out to her team and Gabby was available. I didn’t have familiarity with Gabby but I looked her up and saw she was incredible on Instagram and put my deposit down and booked a trial. Being that I’m not at all a makeup girl, I was nervous about how I would look and feel with full glam. I made it clear I wanted to still look like myself for my wedding day but trusted her completely to work her magic. I was stunned with the look she came up with and couldn’t believe what I saw in the mirror, I was so happy and confident walking out of my trial. My wedding day was magical and I felt incredible, we didn’t make any major changes to my look and my pictures came out unbelievably. She was to easy to work with, easy to get in touch with and communicate with throughout the time leading to my wedding and made the whole process seamless. Would absolutely use her again without a doubt the only thing I would do different is book directly through her i stead of through another artist.

Our wedding weekend at Black Walnut Farm was nothing short of extraordinary. I had always dreamed of more than just a single day or a few hours of celebration. I imagined a full weekend surrounded by our favorite people, celebrating a love I had hoped for my entire life. Black Walnut Farm made that dream a reality in the most magical way. My fiancé and I got engaged in June 2024 and waited until August to begin planning so we could savor being engaged. Black Walnut Farm was our first venue visit. During their open house, we explored the property while enjoying signature cocktails and bites, and we immediately felt at home meeting Jim. His warmth, charisma, and genuine spirit set the tone for everything that followed. The estate is breathtaking. Acres of beauty, an enchanting forest, whimsical gardens, and a farmhouse filled with stunning, eclectic antiques. Within minutes, we knew our search was over. As we left, Jim smiled, saying he could tell we had found “the one.” The planning process was seamless and stress-free. As someone who goes with the flow, I was amazed by how organized and supportive the team was. Timelines, documents, and communication were clear and thoughtful. Sarah, co-owner and Jim’s partner, made the experience effortless. While the venue is largely a la carte, Sarah provides a curated list of trusted vendors so you never feel lost. Together, Sarah and Jim are an unmatched team. We chose the weekend package, allowing us and six guests to stay in the farmhouse from Thursday through Monday. Walking in felt like stepping into a dream. We were greeted with a handwritten card, a charcuterie board, and champagne. Fresh banana bread, muffins, and cookies were displayed, the refrigerator stocked with snacks, drinks, and s’mores essentials, and a bar cart held homemade old fashioneds. Every room included robes and fresh water by the bedside, and fireplaces were ready with stacked firewood. Our honeymoon suite was spacious and cozy, with its own fireplace, sitting area, and clawfoot tub. Black Walnut Farm even created a custom flag with our names and named a tree in our honor, a meaningful and unforgettable touch. On Friday evening, we hosted our rehearsal dinner for fifty-five guests in the barn, which perfectly blends rustic elegance with antique details and warmth. The staff’s pride and attention to detail were evident, and Jim, Sarah, or Lindsey were always nearby to ensure everything ran smoothly. After dinner, my bridesmaids and I returned to the farmhouse for a cozy night by the fire watching Father of the Bride. Our wedding day was pure magic. We got ready together in a sun-filled room, sharing laughter and happy tears. We exchanged vows in the forest, a fairytale setting. The celebration continued in the barn with cocktail hour, dinner, dancing, and dessert. Guests loved the barn loft, complete with a photo booth and a phone for leaving messages. Although the weather prevented our planned bonfire hour, Sarah and Jim graciously extended our time in the barn, ensuring the night remained just as special. This weekend was the best experience of our lives. Our friends and family still talk about how incredible it was. We are endlessly grateful to Sarah, Jim, Miss Lily, and the entire Black Walnut Farm team for creating a wedding weekend we will cherish forever.

We absolutely LOVED working with Justine at Mills Memories for our special day! Justine went above and beyond at every step of the way for us. We knew we needed a coordinator for the day of, but Justine met with us about once a month for almost a full year leading up to the wedding. She made sure we were staying on track with all the to-dos and even provided a checklist for us to work through. The week of the wedding she was on top of everything. All of our other vendors sang her praises and we can confirm, working with Justine made our whole wedding day so much smoother. She also came to our rehearsal which was a huge help, not only because it was great that she knew how everything at the church should go on the day of, but also because I had a wardrobe malfunction and she was there to help my matron of honor sew me into my rehearsal dinner dress. To top it all off, when we were going through the cards from our wedding night, we found the sweetest card from Justine, which was such a beautifully kind gesture. We are so grateful for all the hard work and dedication that Justine put into our wedding day and we can’t recommend her enough!

Working with Scott and his band was the best decision we made on our wedding day. We had a very specific vision where we would have a jazz quartet during the cocktail hour and have the pianist and bassist play classical music during the cocktail hour. While this was an atypical setup (usually Cello and Piano), Scott's band was up to the challenge and they absolutely nailed it! I even got to get up and sing a Sinatra standard, and play a tune on trumpet with the cocktail band to my now wife! What great energy the group had, they welcomed me in with open arms and smiles, and we really couldn't have asked for a more perfect day!

The Garrison itself is absolutely stunning - even more beautiful in person - and the staff was warm, attentive, and professional throughout. Our guests are still raving about the food, and the entire space came together perfectly for both the ceremony and reception. What really made the day seamless, though, was the team that supported us. Annie, our day-of coordinator, was an absolute godsend. We were juggling unpredictable weather, miscommunications, and a whole lot of last-minute uncertainty, and she handled it all with such calm, measured grace. She kept things on track and gave us the gift of peace of mind - we truly couldn’t have done it without her. Fatima, my bridal assistant, was my right hand from the moment I arrived. She anticipated every need before I even had to ask - always three steps ahead, always composed, always kind. I felt fully taken care of, which is exactly what every bride hopes for. We’re so grateful to the entire team - thank you for making our wedding day so beautiful and so easy to enjoy.

Matthew Rigby Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (24 reviews)
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Central Valley, NY

I'm Matthew, a wedding photographer based in Garrison, NY. With a decade as a wedding photographer and 15 years as an educator, I bring two things to every wedding: the ability to document moments as they happen, and the calm to handle whatever the day brings. I prepare carefully, communicate beforehand, and stay present when it's busy. My style is mostly documentary. I blend into the wedding, observing and documenting moments as they happen rather than staging them. Feedback I hear most often is that couples weren't aware of me, but that I got everything. I work with all couples and celebrate every kind of love, and every kind of marriage.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you’re looking for a wedding photographer, stop searching and book Matthew Rigby. From our very first meeting, Matt took the time to get to know us as a couple. He wanted to understand our personalities and the kind of photos we actually wanted instead of giving us the same staged, cookie-cutter wedding pictures you see everywhere. We knew right away that he was the perfect fit. At our engagement session, we had a fun idea since we were getting married on 7/11—we asked if we could take photos inside a 7-Eleven, and without hesitation, Matt was all in. That perfectly sums him up. He’s creative, flexible, and always willing to embrace your vision, no matter how unique it is. To make things even better, our engagement shoot ended up taking place in the rain. Instead of calling it off or letting the weather get in the way, Matt embraced it and created some incredible photos that we absolutely love. He truly knows how to make the best of any situation. On our wedding day, everything ran so smoothly. We hired two photographers since the bridal party and groomsmen were getting ready in different locations, and thank you Matthew for bringing along Kevin. He was an amazing addition to the team. The groomsmen absolutely loved him. He brought such a relaxed, fun energy that made a room full of guys—who definitely weren’t excited about taking pictures—actually enjoy the experience. He encouraged their goofy ideas while still making sure they got great shots, and it made a huge difference. Another thing that really stood out was how great Matt is with kids. If you have children in your wedding party, you’ll appreciate his patience and ability to keep them engaged. As a teacher himself, he’s organized, professional, and incredibly calm under pressure. One thing we specifically told Matt was that we didn’t want to spend our entire cocktail hour taking photos. He completely respected that. He kept everything organized and efficient, and because of that, we actually got to enjoy our cocktail hour with our guests—a memory we’ll always be grateful for. The finished photos are absolutely stunning. His editing style is timeless and natural, and every image feels authentic to us. At the end of the day, beautiful photos are the goal, but the experience matters just as much. You spend more time with your photographer on your wedding day than almost anyone else. If you don’t feel comfortable with them, it shows in the pictures. Matt is easygoing, personable, and someone who genuinely makes you feel relaxed and like yourself. That’s exactly why our photos turned out so naturally. We can’t recommend Matthew Rigby Photography highly enough. If you want photographers who are talented, creative, organized, and genuinely fun to spend your wedding day with, they’re the team to book.

We absolutely loved working with Dahlia Events for our wedding. Deliece was our main point of contact, and she was truly a joy and an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. She took care of everything we needed, and so much more than we even knew to ask for. Deliece came prepared with spreadsheets, thoughtful questions, and clear guidance that helped us navigate decisions we didn’t even realize we needed to make, but that proved to be essential. Her organization and attention to detail made the entire planning process feel manageable and well-supported. She handled communication with all of our vendors seamlessly and always made us feel completely taken care of, no matter the detail. When a few hiccups came up along the way, she addressed them with such ease, professionalism, and genuine empathy that we never felt stressed or worried. Beyond her incredible competence, Deliece also brought the warmest, most positive energy, our calls were always something we genuinely looked forward to. And on the wedding day itself, nothing was missed (and I truly mean nothing). Everything ran so smoothly, allowing us to fully enjoy the day without a single concern. We cannot recommend Dahlia Events highly enough. Working with Deliece was one of the very best decisions we made for our wedding.

Your wedding photographs should feel authentic, emotional, and timeless memories you will cherish for generations!

Lisa was hands down one of my top vendors for my September 2024 wedding. Ultimately when booking vendors we had two non- negotiables- affordability and character. I met with several photographers before her and either their pricing was not within our range or I didn’t feel any “connection” with them. When I met Lisa over FaceTime I was in Target with my two toddlers because I had my schedule mixed up. She laughed about it and we were able to have a productive meeting despite the mix up. I hired Lisa not long after and I am so glad I did. Besides from being a phenomenal photographer, her personality is what put the cherry on top. She is detail oriented and assertive - like myself- and had a very efficient way of photographing our bridal party where we were even able to enjoy our cocktail hour without having a first look. She was excellent and extremely patient with our two kids. Our family loved her as did we! We were even able to get her out on the dance floor for a bit! We wish we didn’t live so far away otherwise we would be using her as our photographer a whole lot. Thank you Lisa for being such an important part of our day and for having such an incredible heart.

Booking with The Wedding Foundry at Liberty View Farm is the best thing my husband and I have ever done. We were looking to have a small intimate wedding, but every venue tour we did still had a 75-100 person minimum and required a large cost requirement for catering. Then I happened upon The Wedding Foundry when researching micro weddings. We had one phone call with Billiam and immediately signed the contract, without even viewing the venue first. As a bride, the fact that they were including the venue, the officiant, photography, florals and catering was the best thing ever. It took so much stress off of me while planning this wedding, as I did not have to run around to different vendors. Billiam and Erica were extremely communicative and really took the time to learn what we were looking for. Day of, Billiam and his day of coordinator Cathy made sure the day ran perfectly. We were absolutely blown away from how beautiful our venue was. The florals they created made our wedding look like a fairy tale. Our guests said it was the most beautiful wedding they have ever been to. Erica was an absolute pro with photography, really taking her time with my husband and I for our portraits. Throughout the night she made sure to capture every moment. Erica sent teasers to us within a week of our wedding and the photos are beautiful. The officiant, Michele, was amazing. She created the most personalized and beautiful ceremony that fit us perfectly. We loved how she included a hand-fasting ceremony as well. Multiple guests approached us to let us know that there was not a single dry eye during our ceremony. The Wedding Foundry truly created our perfect day. We are so happy with our intimate wedding, we had 46 of our closest friends and family and everyone truly enjoyed the day. I highly recommend booking The Wedding Foundry at Liberty View Farm for your intimate wedding.

I don’t think I could say enough good things about Kayce. She is so attentive with her work. She knows everything you need to make your day perfect, and she has it on hand through her inventory so you don’t have to do all the extra work! When things went a little crazy on my wedding day (I’m talking outdoor flooding, pop up tents blowing away, and a last minute ceremony location change), she handled everything with ease and grace! She was able to locate a shop vac to remove water, locate an additional tent set up, and coordinate everyone who was helping out to make my day happen! Things were absolutely perfect with Kayce in charge. I genuinely do not know what I would have done without her! 1000000% worth it to put your faith in her to make your day magical!

Whether you’re planning a cozy backyard wedding or an adventurous elopement in the mountains, we’ll capture it with care and creativity.

If you're considering Megan & Kenneth, take this as your sign to book them. Megan & Kenneth were incredible from the moment we first reached out to them. They were kind, flexible, and so helpful with helping us visualize our day. Their automated reminder and tips were incredibly helpful to us. Getting to know them with our included engagement shoot was so much fun, and by the time of our wedding, we felt like old friends. Megan & Kenneth felt like more than photographers/videographers on our special day - they felt like wedding coordinators and family. They were able to pick up on our worries and anxieties, put us at ease, and navigate inevitable wedding-day snafus with grace. Oh, and the photos and video are INCREDIBLE. Swoon-worthy, romantic, natural, and fun. Our family and friends ADORED them, and are still asking us about the amazing photographers we had. We love you guys!!!!

We worked with Beth for our wedding in October 2025 and couldn’t have been happier! She was so great to work with, happy to chat in detail a handful of times ahead of the big day to make sure she was making our vision come to light. She was easy to work with and had an amazing eye for how everything would fit together. We were stressed because our venue wouldn’t allow real candles but her battery taper candles still created the perfect romantic ambiance we were hoping for. Highly recommend - gorgeous results, a pleasure to work with, and as stress free experience you can ask for.

Wow! DJ Lou exceeded our expectations! When it came to the reception we didn't have to do a thing but the preparation came months before that. We had an initial planning meeting, he set us up with our own timeline (an app that he created!), we had a follow-up meeting and then a week-of meeting! We felt so ready when the day came but were still so surprised about how much DJ Lou did for us. He was checking to see if we were okay, pulling us away to make sure we were eating, working with our other vendors so seamlessly- our ceremony musicians, our officiant, our family band, and our photographer! It made the reception a hit among all our guests! We can't recommend him enough!

A good friend of mine has said that my brand is to care. She isn’t wrong-my brand is one of caring because my being is one of caring. I’ve been a wedding photog for 14+ yrs. I find that being a wedding photog is a gift - I barely have the words to describe how special it feels to be invited into clients’ most momentous & intimate wedding moments over & over again. I’m a champion for the weird & whimsical, the fun & funky - even & especially on wedding days. Plan your day the way you want to, trends be damned. Let your wedding day reflect your joy. That’s what we’re all there to celebrate, anyway. ✨

We love Erica so much! Her style of photography is exactly what we were looking for, and all of the photos came out so beautiful and vivid. She's incredibly kind and organized, but at no point did we feel pressed for time. She never gave us the impression that we were running behind schedule, she is just so relaxed and friendly. It's been a month since the wedding, and I still have guests calling me to compliment her and her photos. People said she blended into the background seamlessly - never noticed but, based on the pictures, all around. We can't recommend her enough!

This is delightfully different elopement + wedding photography! From helicopter elopements and lakeside wedding bashes to hiking engagements to weddings with bouncy houses, I capture the adventurous, quirky, and unique. Based in both New York + California, with travel worldwide, I've photographed couples on 6 continents. My creative, fun, & candid photography uses innovative techniques and unique ideas to get photos that make you look twice. Whether you're saying vows in your backyard or having a 3-day adventure wedding in the rainforest, I'll catch every spontaneous moment of joy and laughter—and plan a few unique shots on top of it all.

We cannot recommend Kathryn enough! First (and most obvious) (and also most important) point is that the photos she took were incredible. She captured our night beautifully. More than that though, she captured how the night felt. The photos weren't overly posy, but rather showed off how much fun and excitement there was for the entire night. I think one of the best things I can say about Kathryn is that she really made a point of figuring out HOW we wanted her to photograph the wedding and delivered. As I wrote above, we wanted the photographs to look great, but mostly just capture how the wedding felt and she delivered on that 100%. Also, as much as she made sure we were leading all the decision making, she really knew her stuff and took things off of our plate where we could. We knew how we wanted the photos to look generally, but neither of us are photographers. So we talked to her about style and vibe and she really took it from there. She was an absolute professional, a great person to work with, and kind and caring. We felt like we were in great hands every step of the way. Truly cannot recommend her enough.

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!!

From our first interaction with Valentino Entertainment, LLC, we were impressed by their thorough, relaxed, and reassuring communication style. 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.
