We couldn't be happier with Marty at our recent wedding! From start to finish, he exceeded our expectations in every way. First and foremost, his attention to detail is amazing -- he noticed a discrepancy between the couple introduction song that we had put in the Vibo app versus what our day of coordinator had on her wedding timeline. He then reached out to the day of coordinator to figure out which song was correct. He also took the time to understand what we were looking for for our cocktail hour and wedding reception. He reached out many times prior to our wedding to check in with us and make sure that all of our questions were answered. It was clear that he genuinely cares about providing a memorable experience. Marty is also flexible. Originally the plan was for our dance floor to be outside. However, due to a heat wave we ended up deciding to move the dance floor inside. Marty was able to easily accommodate this request and he also offered to put speakers outside so guests who were out on the deck would still be able to hear the music. We also recommend going with the up-lighting. He did a great job setting up the lights. The lights actually change colors and really change the vibe of the reception room once the party gets started! The live music he delivered during cocktail hour was a standout of the night. We had so many compliments from guests about his cocktail hour performance. Another aspect that truly set Marty apart was his willingness to go above and beyond. Not only did he do a great job reading the vibe of the room in order to keep the dance floor lively, but at one point he also helped with cleaning up dinner plates. He showed a level of dedication and professionalism that's rare to find. Marty played a crucial role in making our wedding a success. We highly recommend him for any occasion!

Blythe Eland Photography

Chapel Hill, NC
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,639

A little about me: I grew up in North Carolina, moved to Florida, and now I am back in North Carolina. When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me lounging at home with my two Aussies (because, let’s be honest, they run my household). Dogs are my world, which is why I’m always equipped with at least two lint rollers during every shoot (I’ve pretty much achieved Master Lint Roller status by now). Every moment is special and worth capturing, and my job is to help tell your story in a way that honors your love and feelings for one another.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are beyond grateful to have had Blythe as our wedding photographer! From the very first interaction, she was warm, professional, and incredibly talented. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, allowing us to truly enjoy the moment while she worked her magic behind the lens. The photos she delivered were absolutely breathtaking—every detail, emotion, and special moment was captured so beautifully. Looking through them feels like reliving our wedding day all over again. Blythe has an amazing eye for lighting, composition, and those perfect candid shots that make all the difference. Beyond her talent, she was also a joy to work with—punctual, communicative, and always going the extra mile to ensure we got everything we envisioned. She made the entire process seamless and fun, which is exactly what every couple hopes for on such an important day. If you’re searching for a wedding photographer who is not only exceptionally skilled but also kind, professional, and passionate about what she does, Blythe is the one! We cannot thank her enough for giving us memories we will cherish forever. Thank you, Blythe, for capturing our love story so beautifully!

Working with Tony and Beth at Old Lystra Inn was an absolute dream from start to finish. After spending countless hours searching for the perfect venue, my husband and I knew immediately that this was the one the moment we pulled up the driveway. Tony greeted us with a late-evening tour that felt incredibly personal, not at all rushed—and it set the tone for everything that followed. The property itself is breathtaking. The grounds are impeccably maintained and filled with charm, and so much is included in the rental package—tent, dance floor, chairs, tables, and more—which made planning far less stressful. It was a huge relief not having to coordinate all those big logistics separately. Beth and Tony were a constant source of support leading up to the big day. Whether it was a quick stop by to walk the grounds, a late-night email, or one of our many questions (and there were a lot!), they always made time for us. We never felt like “just another couple” in a long wedding season. Instead, they made us feel like our day truly mattered—like we were getting married in a place that had heart and soul, not just beautiful scenery. On the day itself, Tony was everywhere—behind the scenes making things happen and helping everything flow effortlessly. We can’t overstate how much that meant to us. Thanks to his quiet dedication, we were able to be fully present and just enjoy the day. We are endlessly grateful to have had our wedding at Old Lystra Inn. It was the best day of our lives, and Tony and Beth played such a meaningful role in making that possible. We can’t wait for the day we get to return as guests and relive the magic from a different perspective. Highly, highly recommend!

We worked with Carina of Raleigh Weddings, and it was easily one of the best decisions that we made. Carina has an impeccable eye for details, and through all her meetings helped us ensure that nothing was overlooked on the wedding day. She provided us with thorough check lists, email recaps, and reliable communication to help make our day perfect. Perhaps the best part about Carina is that she is so personable and brings so much joy to the wedding planning process. You could tell that she really cares about all of the people she works with. It is refreshing how authentic she is! Moreover, she really took the stress out of the process especially in the last few weeks. If it was something that she could take off our plates, she was more than happy to do it for us. I can thank her for a wonderful wedding that was flawlessly executed.

I could not have asked for a better photographer than Casie!! We met her for our engagement shoot and she made us feel right at home, despite neither of us loving getting our picture taken. It gave me a lot of calm on our wedding day knowing we were in good hands! Casie was always early and super professional, responded to emails immediately, and set up meetings so we could discuss expectations and what we wanted. We got a sneak peek with lots of photos just a few days after the wedding, and we just got the rest of the photos and are so thrilled with them!! She got everything on our shot list, gave just the right amount of direction to look nice without feeling forced, and really captured the day beautifully--including moments that I myself didn't even realize were happening! She worked well with our videographer, and her second shooter was also amazing.I would highly recommend Casie!
