Awarded Best of Zola
We knew we wanted our wedding to be full of dancing, so our DJ was one of the first vendors we booked. We hit the absolute JACKPOT with Luxx and DJ Mike. Mike kept the party going and the only time our guests were leaving the dance floor was to grab another drink. Even our friends and family who don't dance were out on the dance floor tearing it up thanks to Mike. He did a great job mixing songs and keeping the energy high. We had so many guests tell us after the wedding it was the best music and dance floor of any wedding they'd been to. Mike was incredibly professional and easy to work with and we can't recommend him and Luxx Entertainment enough!

  • Serves Dowling, MI

Whether you're eloping on a mountaintop, planning a grand celebration, or renewing your vows in a quiet garden, I’m here to help make the moment unforgettable. With years of experience and a passion for storytelling, I create personalized ceremonies that reflect the heart and soul of your relationship. No cookie-cutter scripts — just heartfelt words, a touch of whimsy, and a whole lot of love.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’ve had the privilege of working alongside Shannon, referring her to couples, and even trusting her to officiate my own daughter’s wedding, and in every situation, she has been nothing short of amazing. As a fellow officiant, I’ve seen firsthand how much Shannon loves what she does. She communicates beautifully, is organized and dependable, and brings a sense of calm, joy, and presence to every ceremony she leads. I’ve referred her to couples knowing they’ll be in excellent hands, and she has always exceeded expectations. When it came time for my own daughter’s wedding, I wanted to be fully present as her mom, and Shannon was the only person I trusted to officiate. She arrived early, helped with last-minute details, and created a ceremony that was thoughtful, heartfelt, and perfectly tailored to my daughter and her partner. Her delivery was warm, engaging, and so genuine that every guest felt the love in the room. If you’re looking for an officiant who truly listens, genuinely cares, and crafts ceremonies that reflect you, I can’t recommend Shannon highly enough. United by Shannon will make your wedding day unforgettable.

Elegant On Arrival was absolutely amazing to work with for my wedding day beauty needs. Their communication was great and very fast, which really helped put me at ease during the busy wedding planning process.

It might look like “just a photo booth,” but it’s really it's so much more than that. It’s your grandpa striking a pose, pictures with your cousin you haven't seen in years, and people who just met gathered together in the happiest kind of chaos. I want to do more than just capture memories, I want to help create them. And who knows? You might just spot a few of those photos popping up as your guests’ new profile pictures.

We booked Kalamazoo Photo Booth for our wedding and it turned out to be such a fun choice. From our first conversation, they were quick to respond, flexible with our needs, and genuinely friendly to work with. The setup was seamless and stress-free on the day of the event. What really stood out was their attendant, who helped each guest use the photobooth with so much kindness and patience. The prints came out crisp and vibrant- we didn't have to worry about a thing. Our guests had a blast, and we have these awesome keepsakes to remember the day. Highly recommend them for any couple looking to add some fun to their wedding.

I specialize in weddings, elopements, seniors and family sessions- but what I really love is capturing real connection. The laughs, the quiet in between moments, the way you look at each other when no one else is paying attention. When I'm not behind the camera, you can probably find me with a coffee in hand and my Blue Heeler dog nearby (He thinks he run the business, honestly) If you are looking for someone who will keep things easy, fun and natural- you are in the right place.

She did an Amazing job wrangling everyone and making sure we all knew what to do during the rehearsal. And when our wedding day finally arrived, Amy was prepared, organized, and ready to make our wedding dreams come true. Because of her, we were able to relax and be in the moment while getting ready to walk down the aisle. She sent me pictures throughout the morning to make sure everything was perfect.

I was so happy with my hair and makeup from my wedding day. I had a super complicated updo that required two practice sessions, and my hair stylist was so patient and willing to work with me until we figured out the exact updo I’d had in mind. I have a ton of hair and it’s long and she was so incredible at coming up with ways to get the exact hairstyle I’d imagined. My makeup artist was wonderful too! I got highlights and a quite a bit of sun (for me) after we did our trial run and she was able to pivot and make sure the makeup we did on my wedding day was perfect despite my skin tone and hair being drastically different than before. They were both lovely to work with and I was so happy with how things turned out.

We had our wedding in November 2025 using Classic Catering & Events for dinner, desserts, and our wedding cake, as well as having their sister company Once Upon a Bloom for our florist. Heather covered both areas stunningly well. For dinner we did the chopped steak, grilled chicken, green beans, salad, and Mac and cheese all in buffet style. Everything came out great, cooked to perfection. The chopped steak was especially tasty and a favorite with both me (the bride) and guests! And the fact that it came with a water, lemonade, and sweet tea stand was so nice for our guests who didn’t drink alcohol or for those who did drink, and needed to stay hydrated. For dessert we did an arrangement of small goodies including the cake shooters, and it also came out amazing. The cake shooters were my favorite of all the desserts, we even got to pick a variety of different cake flavors! And CC&E arranged everything to be picture perfect on the tables, bringing their own food stands which was a huge help to me. The cake was a simple but elegant two tier chocolate cake with white frosting. It also came out tasting great. It was affordable, which I appreciated, allowing us the ability to choose the traditional tiered cake over boring sheet cake but remain within our budget. With the floral arrangements, Heather went above and beyond. As a bride who knows very little about flowers, I did not give Heather much to go on when creating our bouquets and floral arrangements. And yet she took the pictures of me and my bridesmaids’ dresses, the wedding colors and themes, and the wedding Pinterest I had made, and was able to create incredible bouquets and arrangements, while also being aware of our budget! I was speechless seeing the bouquets and got so many compliments. The most impressive thing about this is the fact that Heather did all this work while only being able to email with me due to the fact that I live in a different state than AL and travel for work quite often. Even with an 8 hour time difference (for a month leading up to the wedding due to my work trip) her communication with me was effective and timely. Heather’s dedication and expertise is one reason why my wedding was so stress free! I highly, highly recommend Heather’s two companies Classic Catering & Events and Once Upon a Bloom to any bride in the Alabama area.

There is only one word to describe our experience with Ivy House and our coordinator: PERFECT. The venue is outstandingly beautiful and the staff are welcoming and were just as excited about our wedding as we were. Our coordinator, Heather, went above and beyond for us. She was extremely dedicated to making this our best day ever. We bonded with her instantly and our planning was a walk in the park because of her. She just made everything SO MUCH FUN. You would think on the day of your wedding, you would feel a little stress wondering if everything was going to go right, but with Heather there wasn't a doubt in our mind or even a little stress because we knew our day was in the best hands and everything was going to be perfect! She made our day completely stress free and took care of everything for us the day of from timeline, to making sure we had our drinks, getting our wedding party together, and simply just letting us enjoy the day as newlyweds. I wish we could get married here over and over and over again! Just insanely beautiful with an incredible staff. I hope we get to attend so many more weddings here to relive the best day ever! - Cassidy & Taylor Messer 10.03.25

MillCreek Wilde provided the perfect rustic yet elegant backdrop for our special day. Communication with the venue owner, Amelia, was quick, friendly, and attentive throughout the planning process. She responded to all our questions promptly and helped ensure everything came together smoothly. The venue itself is simply stunning with tall trees, string lights, and beautiful landscaping that made bringing in additional decor almost unnecessary. We felt the venue was very fairly priced given the beautiful setting and helpful staff. Amelia even took the time during the reception to capture photos for an Instagram reel to help us remember our special moments at MillCreek Wilde. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect, naturally beautiful venue with an accommodating team to match for our wedding day! It was a magical setting - exactly right for our personalities and hopes for our “enchanted woodland” wedding!
