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!

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.

Adrian Etheridge Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
Chapel Hill, NC
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,200

I've been an artist for as long as I can remember. My mom gave me an old film camera sometime around 5th grade thinking offhand that I might be interested in yet another art form and boy was she ever right. From then on, I've always had a camera in my hand, documenting anything and everything. Photography has been not only my chosen form of expression for over half my lifetime, but my way of learning about the world, of getting to know people, and even of getting to know myself.

Awarded Best of Zola
Adrian is amazing! I cannot recommend her enough, especially if you're a couple that is awkward in front of a camera! We hired her for our wedding in Asheville, and she came to us in Raleigh for our engagement session. She made us feel really comfortable and didn't try to make us do any "unnatural" poses; over the engagement session, she found what worked for us, and brought out more of that! She was also very patient with our dog who did not want to cooperate at all, and still managed to get some great action shots of him! The day of our wedding, it poured! She was such a trooper about quickly moving outside when the sun poked out, and back in when the skies opened up. And when everyone hit the dance floor, she got the best personality pics of our loved ones. She was so patient with us, and everything we needed as two individuals who originally did not feel comfortable in front of the camera!

Forged Frames 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
Chapel Hill, NC
  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style

My passion for capturing a wedding day began three years ago, and I quickly realized how meaningful it is to preserve emotion. Every laugh, every tear, every glance,it all matters and it all deserves to be remembered. I approach wedding films like a storyteller, not just a videographer. I don’t believe in staged emotion or copy-and-paste edits. I believe couples are different—their rhythm, their history, the way they look at each other when no one else is watching. My goal is not just to record your day, but to forge a story that will be cherished forever.

We cannot say enough good things about Elijah and the incredible work he did capturing our wedding day. From the very beginning, he was professional, easygoing, and genuinely invested in telling our story. On the day of the wedding, he blended in so seamlessly that we were able to be completely present, yet somehow he captured every meaningful moment, emotion, and detail. When we received our video, we were absolutely blown away. It felt like we were reliving the day all over again. The pacing, music, and editing were beautiful & cinematic, and it was just how we envisioned. Elijah has a true gift for storytelling. If you’re on the fence about going with him, do it. This is something we will cherish forever, and we are so grateful to have our memories preserved so thoughtfully and authentically. Our family and friends loved the finished product and we do too! Highly, highly recommend.

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!
