Inspired to fill that void, I combined my love for service, celebration, and connection to create Savor The Moment — a treat experience that makes every event unforgettable.

Savor the Moment provided the best experience for my wedding! Michelle was absolutely fantastic to work with and brought all my dreams to reality. My guests were thrilled with the variety of candy options, and the Chick-fil-A and Five Guys burgers were a massive hit. I would 1000% use them again!

My passion has been, and always will be, to serve others. I’m passionately married to my wife of 18 years and truly love the art of marriage! To be chosen for a couples special day is an honor and a privilege, which I am incredibly grateful for. I love building community and am proud of the relationships that I have built throughout my life journey.

Russell and his team at 1Makeup Man were nothing short of lifesavers for my wedding. When I had to find a new hair and makeup team at the last minute, I was terrified I wouldn’t find anyone in time. But from the moment I spoke with Russell on the phone, I knew he was the one. He listened carefully, understood exactly what I was looking for, and reassured me that I would feel like myself on my wedding day—and he delivered on that promise. Russell was incredibly warm and welcoming during my trial, which put me at ease immediately. Ashley handled my hair, and she was so patient and attentive as we figured out the perfect style. She listened to my (admittedly vague) ideas and turned them into the most beautiful look for my big day. Mallory took care of makeup and was just as fantastic. None of us in the wedding party wear much makeup, and she created natural, elegant looks that made everyone feel beautiful and comfortable. She even charmed my 3-year-old flower girl by applying pretend makeup, which was such a sweet touch. Both Ashley and Mallory became part of our getting-ready party, blending seamlessly into the morning and helping everything run smoothly. Their warmth, professionalism, and talent made the day even more special. I feel so lucky to have found Russell and his team—they truly saved the day and exceeded every expectation. I couldn’t recommend them more highly to anyone looking for a team that is not only talented but also an absolute joy to work with!

Hi, I'm Lindsey! For most couples, their wedding is one of the first times their love has been a photographer’s subject. That’s why, having photographed 250+ weddings over the past 11 years, I have fine-tuned strategies to bring ease to the anxious and fluidity to the stiff for truly stunning images. Whether it’s at your engagement session or wedding day, you can count on me to preserve your best moments, all while making sure you have fun and look phenomenal.

From the moment we first spoke with Lindsey of Lindsey Ford Photography, we were impressed by her enthusiastic and proactive communication style. She was incredibly supportive throughout the entire wedding planning process, offering guidance and suggestions that helped make our special day run smoothly. Lindsey's work is truly beautiful and professional - the photos she captured of our wedding are beyond perfect and exceeded all of our expectations (and we have only seen the preview photos so far!). When we had some rain right before the ceremony, Lindsey kept everything moving seamlessly and worked amazingly well with all of the other vendors. We could not have been happier with our choice of Lindsey Ford Photography, and we are so grateful for the incredible memories she helped create for us on our wedding day.

Coterie Cafe + Kitchen is a community-driven cafe and catering company based in Wilmington, Delaware. We specialize in thoughtfully prepared, house-made offerings that highlight fresh, seasonal ingredients and globally inspired flavors. Whether you’re stopping by for a warm breakfast, a handcrafted lunch, or looking to cater a special event, our team brings creativity, care, and a personal touch to every dish we serve. Beyond our daily menu, we offer fully customized catering experiences for weddings, corporate events, and private gatherings — always tailored to meet the unique tastes and needs of our clients.

I’m at that age where it is absolute wedding season, so I am somewhat of a self proclaimed expert on this… BUT… I recently attended a wedding where not only did every cocktail hour appetizer absolutely melt in my mouth, but for my dinner filet was legitimately cooked perfectly (medium rare) and tasted like true fine dining! Let’s face it, steak at weddings is often either flavorless, or way overcooked… this somehow was on par with some of the best steakhouses around. I wish Coterie was around when we were needing catering for our wedding, sheesh! If you want Michelin level food at your wedding, you have found the place.
