Mitali is truly a master at what she does. She brought my floral dreams to life. It was everything I could have hoped for and more. Flowers were the most important detail of my wedding for me and Mitali delivered every step of the way.

We're a husband/wife photography duo. We're college sweethearts and we're currently expecting our first child in June 2021! We are so happy to be in this business but we didn’t always know we’d become wedding photographers. Seth spent about 10 years in video production (aka the equipment expert) and Nicole is an advertising art director (aka the artsy perfectionist).

Seth was amazing as our wedding photographer! Our wedding package included an additional photo shoot that we used as an engagement shoot. This session helped us feel at ease with our decision. He made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera and we were so impressed with how those pictures turned out. Leading up to the wedding day he helped us build our day of timeline and we compiled a list of must have pictures. Seth and Drea helped us stay on schedule and were able to capture all the pictures we wanted. They were organized, professional, and prepared. Any time during the night we wanted a photo captured, Seth and Drea were already on it. They made it so easy for us to enjoy and have fun knowing they were capturing all our special moments. Seth even agreed to stay later because it started snowing and we took some amazing photos in the snow! Seth turned around wedding preview photos for all the big moments in only a few days. These pictures are amazing! We already have many of the framed and hung in our home.

Awarded Best of Zola
Louis Pettinelli Entertainment was an absolute dream to work with. I thought that a live band for our wedding would be out of our reach, but LPE was so easy to work with and what an incredible value! Our band, LPE Snapshot was incredible and our ceremony musicians were amazing too! The vocalists were high energy and kept the whole event moving. They were great Emcess and they even added some special non-traditional reception activities for us. They were super flexible and played all the songs we asked for- even some very “niche” tracks we asked for during the ceremony. So many of my guests said the band was their favorite part of the reception. I highly recommend LPE entertainment! (I am also a musician myself so I’m very picky!)

Where to even begin? We had seen Nicks work through a friend on IG and loved what we saw! We first met Nick during our engagement photoshoot. Nick made us both feel so comfortable and was so easy to work with. He quickly got our vibe and how we interacted with each other- and played into with his photos. We didn’t feel like we had to give him ideas- he knew exactly what to do and how to pose us. Then for the wedding, Nick and his team are PHENOMENAL. They are the most fun team to have with you on your wedding day. My husband does not like taking photo- Nick and his team “did not make the photos feel like a chore or a hassle” instead, my husband had so much fun with nick and his team. Nick will make you feel so beautiful on your wedding day and be your biggest hype man. He also really helped us since we did not have an event planner. He helped us with an entire day of timeline and kept things super organized for us. If you’re reading this and still haven’t booked Nicholas Yee Photography, what are you doing!?

Not only are they highly skilled and professional, they are also kind and just great people to be around on the most important day of your life. We felt so relieved to be able to fully trust them with what was one of the most important parts of our wedding to us (photos). Since they are a husband/wife duo, it was super helpful when they were able to quickly show us posing references by demonstrating with each other. We are obsessed with our images.

We hired Sarah for her services roughly a year out from our wedding. From the start, Sarah was extremely responsive and helped answer all my questions. During this time, we had selected a majority of our vendors but we needed Sarah's expertise in organizing our long to-do list, logistics and design ideas. A majority of our guests were traveling to our wedding so the logistics of how the weekend looked was very important to us as a couple. Sarah seamlessly was able to put together a plan to ensure that we were thinking of every detail needed to get our guests from point A to point B and back. During the weekend of the wedding, Sarah and her team were on top of every detail and that allowed myself and my husband to focus on enjoying the celebration. Sarah's ability to remain calm and handle any challenge that comes her way from vendors is truly an asset that anyone will want for their wedding weekend.

Where do we even begin! We had our wedding November 30th, 2024 and had the absolute most perfect special day. We originally toured with Kyle and knew from then this would be our venue. Out of all the venues we toured, he was the most descriptive and passionate, answering any and all questions. From then on, everything was absolutely seamless and easy in every way. Jessica, who does floral and design…NO WORDS. She is an absolute gem to work with and master of florals. I had a very specific vision with colors and she made our wildest dreams come true. She met with me multiple times to ensure what I envisioned was what I wanted, and answered every single email so fast with my questions/changes/comments. Katrina was our coordinator through CKE, and was lovely to work with. She was there to answer any and all questions and extremely communicative leading up to wedding day when things can become stressful :) Day of she was also somehow always by our side the second we needed something. Lastly, the food…guests are still raving about it. It is beyond delicious and there are tons and tons of options to choose from. I have to give a special shoutout to the Lechon station, as people will not stop talking about how unique and amazing it was. We cannot thank the team at Crossed Keys enough for the dedication and attention to detail they put into making our day perfect.

MMUAV Pro is INCREDIBLE. Having never had professional services done before, I had so many concerns: my eczema-prone skin, if my hair would stay volumized, if there was experience with a wide-range of complexions and hair textures for my bridal party, etc. etc. etc. The list went on. For myself, Norma DID HER THING with the makeup! No flare ups or skin irritations all day. The natural glam was spot on with what I was envisioning. Linda was AMAZING with my hair! Everything came out perfect and the curls sat so beautifully on my collar bone. The airbrush was super light and didn't irritate my eczema-prone skin at all. For my family and bridesmaids who had services done, they were all so happy with their hair and makeup! Norma, Linda, Omayra, and Chantelle were so wonderful. They knew how to work with everyone's skin type, facial structure, and hair texture. Everything held up so well. From inquiring to the trial and wedding day, MMUAV Pro was always kindly available. I couldn't have imagined anyone else doing hair & makeup for the wedding. They made my vision come to life. Everyone was so professional, calm, fun, and just overall had a great attitude from start to finish. This day was so special for all of us. So grateful for Vicky and Linda for taking the time to listen to all my thoughts, questions, and concerns throughout the way. Thank you isn't enough, and I hope this review helps so many others with similar concerns I had. THANK YOU MMUAV PRO!!!

When my fiancé and I got engaged 2 and half years ago I thought I had everything under control. I Hired all my big vendors, purchased my wedding dress. Then I met Natalie during my SIL’s wedding when my bridesmaid dress was mistakenly not hemmed. Natalie, like a super hero, came through with a no big deal mentality. She quick stitched it right up (5 inches) and I knew right then, that I needed to draft her on our amazing vendor list! Leading up to our wedding we had virtual meetings monthly. Setting the timeline for the day, making sure we had everything. Without a doubt Natalie was that girl! She was so friendly and easy to talk with! One big take away was she is a quick problem solver! Even I f you don’t think you need a wedding coordinator (which is what I thought) trust me you do!! Natalie made everything so effortless for me. All I had to do was enjoy my big day! I will forever recommend her services to anyone planning on forever with their person!

I'm Angelica, the owner of Dawnpoint Studios! I'm an adventurous and internationally requested wedding/elopement photographer with a focus on sustainability! Here's an unexpected fact - I hated weddings when I first started second shooting them. It broke my heart to see couples being rushed, overwhelmed, and not truly having any connection to couples. That's what drove my passion to breath a fresh air into the wedding experience! Plan with intention, focus on being present, and building genuine relationships with couples! You should be heard, appreciated, and understood. You should feel encouraged to get married your way.

Read for my true heartfelt experience with Angelica at Dawnpoint, but in short - hire her. This should be the easiest decision you make in your wedding planning journey. I came across Dawnpoint after she documented the wedding of someone I know. Those pictures felt so authentic and real. They took me right to the event and made me feel so much. I knew I needed to meet her. From my initial zoom meeting with Angelica, we hit it off. I said I wanted to get the best views in our pictures. She was on board right away. For our engagement pictures, she took us on a hike. Chris and I showed up in hiking gear with our formal wear in our packs. So did Angelica. This may seem so minuscule but for two people who had never been photographed and just wanted someone to make them feel comfortable and to capture something real, this made us trust her from the get go. Needless to say, those pictures were amazing. We even used them for our save the dates! Fast forward to our wedding day in Lake Placid on June 15, 2024. My goals were ambitious but Angelica was on board every step of the way. From creating the timeline to executing the plan the day of, it was the least stressful part of our day. What I loved most was that she listened to my vision and incorporated it in everything she did that day. I even forgot that I wanted a specific picture of my dress, but she definitely did not. When I was getting ready, she had my bridal party share personal stories of us and it was so sweet, I felt so connected to the people closest to me that day and it helped me stay grounded and present from the beginning. For our first look, we wanted to meet at the top of Whiteface Mountain. This was 40 minutes away from our venue and logistically a lot of things could go wrong. Yet, Angelica was a smiling face reassuring me that we could do it. Everything from asking for us to skip the elevator line, to clearing the space on Whiteface for Chris and I to get our moment. I was and remain truly speechless of how she actually made this happen. The pictures speak for themselves. After, we returned to our venue and without delay resumed with a first look with my dad (which I added last minute and was meeted with so much excitement from Angelica). One of my favorite parts was golden hour pictures. I take zero credit here. This was Angelica’s idea and I am so thankful. It was a truly beautiful and authentic experience to photograph the newly wed joy I felt. This is just one of so many ways in which Angelica showed that she was as present and invested in our day as we were. After receiving my sneak preview pictures, I was honestly met with so much emotion. I was brought right back to each moment and exactly how I was feeling. I am truly blown away because if anyone can get a picture to tell a thousand words, it is Angelica. She perfectly captured our day and was the single most best decision I made that day. Unsolicited feedback from my guests: “Your photographer smiled the entire night! She looked like she was having so much fun!” This was feedback I got multiple times and it goes to show much Angelica loves her job! P.S. Jake, her second shooter, was also an absolute pleasure. Together, their energy was infectious.
