Our event went absolutely flawlessly with Billy and Jason at the helm. He was not only our DJ, but our lighting guy, pyrotechnics (with the cold sparks), MC, and day-of coordinator. I mean… Can you really ask for more? If we would have hired different vendors for all of those roles we’d have pay 4x the price. So for their Diamond package it was an absolute steal. Pricing aside, they absolutely slayed the dance floor and Billy was hysterical with jokes and fun games throughout the evening. Why are you even still reading? You should have already booked them!!

No matter who you are or where you came from, everyone has a story, and stories were meant to be told. I tell stories through photography. Weddings are incredibly meaningful and intimate. I’m not just someone with a camera who shows up and takes pictures. I believe in truly connecting and engaging with my clients so I can best understand how I can tell their story. With a bright, clean, and vibrant photography style, I help bring my client’s vision to life through beautiful photos that can be cherished forever.

We hired Jonathan for wedding photography, and he was easy to work with and very organized. He visited and researched the venue (Seattle Aquarium) and lighting on his own (no flash by the fish, dark interior), and proactively setup meetings and reminders. We had never hired a photographer for a large event before, and Jonathan explained what shots would work best and timing. Jonathan worked with an associate photographer to shoot the wedding, which went very smoothly, and then Jonathan did the final editing. The photos turned out great and we received them a few weeks after the wedding.

Rhiannon & John from 413 Events were worth triple what they charged us! They were by far our favorite vendors and we are so lucky to have had them. Not only were they extremely professional and timely with communication the entire process of planning our wedding (which can’t be said about all the vendors we chose) but they were also so kind, warm, thoughtful and supportive. They went out of their way to source decor for us when we mentioned we had a limited budget and surprised us by decorating our reception space. Although the venue we chose was a hot mess from start to finish, Rhiannon and John worked so hard together to make sure we had pockets of happiness on our wedding day and for that we are so appreciative. We couldn’t have done it without them and their positive attitudes and attention to detail. We could sing of their praises forever honestly. They made our day so special and what sets them apart is how much they genuinely care about their clients. We are happy to have met them and gained 2 new friends.

If I had to describe Sarah and SGS Events Co. in a few words, it would be "wedding planner guardian angel." SGS Events Co. was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Her communication style was clear, concise, and proactive, with a calm, easy-going demeanor that put us at ease throughout the planning process. Sarah was the key to making our dream wedding a reality. She was the first wedding planner I met, and I instantly felt a connection with her—I knew she was the one for the job. From the very beginning, she became someone I could rely on throughout the entire process. Whether it was brainstorming creative ideas and vendors, coordinating rentals and drop-offs, or calming my nerves when I felt overwhelmed, she was there every step of the way. The quality of her work was truly exceptional—Sarah was thoughtful, mindful, and incredibly detail-oriented. For example, when I was running late on the wedding day, she already had a plan in place and was getting everything set up so I could focus on getting ready. She also went above and beyond by picking up our furniture rental, ensuring we had a beautiful vintage lounge in the garden. Sarah custom-styled every table with the decorations we gathered, and completely transformed the gazebo with family photos and pictures of us. She even managed to get the venue to drill in a disco ball, which I had always dreamed of having. And that’s just a glimpse of all the amazing things she did! She asked insightful questions, offered suggestions that made the entire experience better than I could have imagined, and truly made the wedding process seamless. Not only was she a talented project manager, constantly keeping everything on track and communicating clearly, but she also genuinely cares from the bottom of her heart. Hiring Sarah and SGS Events was one of the best decisions I made during my wedding planning. We are so grateful for their hard work and dedication in making our special day truly magical.

Hey there! I’m Emma. I’m a sassy, sarcastic redhead and also a complete sap. To keep it short, I value relationships and experiences above nothing else (although some would say I have a serious West Elm and pizza addiction as well). I love reminiscing and think some of the best nights involve sharing a bottle of wine with old friends and laughing about all of our past adventures (while planning new ones too!). When I think about it, I know I was meant to be a wedding photographer - because I admire your relationship, understand how important this journey to marriage is for you two and understand the importance of documenting it.

Emma is so talented and amazing to work with! She made a ton of recommendations for me because I’m eloped I didn’t know who to call, she played such a big part in putting my day together! My photos are so incredible I could not be happier with how they turned out. She made my husband and I both feel comfortable in front of the camera and was able to capture so much emotion! She’s incredibly gifted at what she does and I cannot say enough good things about her!!

If you want the photographer of your dreams and a hype woman, Brynna is the one! Both my husband and I are the most unphotogenic people on the planet (think Chandler from Friends), but Brynna has a way about her that makes you feel beautiful and a natural in front of a camera. Throughout our entire COVID wedding experience, Brynna was nothing but flexible and positive. We had to move our wedding up by three weeks and Brynna didn't bat an eyelash and was there in a heartbeat, thank goodness she was even available! When the big day came, I was beyond miserable from the anxiety, but when our photos came back, I see nothing but beautiful memories. Looking at our 900 photos brings tears to my eyes; my husband and I are having a tough time choosing which to hang in our home! I cannot recommend Brynna enough, you won't be disappointed!

Victoria, Lacy and her team were professional, competent, and an absolute pleasure to work with. We hired Victoria as our day-of coordinator, and she really smoothed out any edges during our big day. During the lead up to the event, we had 3 or so meetings spaced out appropriately (a few months before, 60 days before, 2 weeks before), where we checked in on progress, and Victoria sprinkled great advice (e.g. we changed our after-party late-night snack idea to be hand-held, to keep people dancing). Victoria shared a very comprehensive joint to-do list, organized by how soon each item should be completed. This timeline helped as a roadmap, and made sure we didn’t overlook anything. Victoria was also responsive in emails, and effective at communicating with our vendors when needed. She ran out rehearsal with a calm and encouraging demeanor, that only made us more excited for the big day :) The day-of is really when Victoria and her team shine. First and foremost, Victoria’s presence was warm and calming, and I didn’t fully appreciate how important that would be until the event. Something unexpected always happens at weddings, and Victoria was “a rock” amid the whirlwind. For us, my partner and I both realized during our ceremony that one of our guests brought a surprise 1. Stressed, we mentioned it to Victoria, she calmly said “I’ll let my team know, we’ve got it covered” with a smile, and that was it: they fixed the issue and we didn’t have to worry about it any further. Victoria and her staff were super diligent and supportive with our DIY set-up and with helping delegate to staff, friends and vendors in such a kind and clear manner. Victoria also recommended the appropriate number of extra staff for our venue and event. Set-up and teardown went smoothly, and they made aesthetic on-the-fly decisions for us. Communication with Victoria during the event was also fun, and a welcome reprieve from interacting with family and guests at times. Victoria also had the foresight to check in about the Blue Angel jets which were scheduled to fly over our venue. She reached out to their manager and assured us about the timing and gave us sage advice on communicating with our guests. This detail is something we might have overlooked if it had not been for Victoria, we are so grateful. Overall, we were super happy with Victoria and her team, and her work really helped make our big day go better than we would have hoped for. Our families also had nothing but great things to say about her. If we got married again we would hire her in an instant!

Sheila E, Musician was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding! Her communication style was on point - she was super communicative and had a great sense of humor that kept things fun. The quality and value of her DJ services were fantastic. For what we paid, the entertainment she provided for our special day was a total bargain. Sheila kept the dance floor packed all night with her awesome song selection and mixing skills. She knew just how to read the crowd to keep the party going. A real pro that knows how to liven up a wedding! One of the best parts was how Sheila integrated funny commentary throughout the night that had all our guests laughing. So professional yet informal at the same time. We loved having Sheila be a part of our big day and felt honored that someone of her musical caliber was there celebrating with us!
