Denise was so responsive and helpful when deciding if they were the right fit. She was flexible with me and helped me understand every aspect of their services. I booked them immediately, which you should too! Don’t wait because these ladies are busy and will book up! My trial was great and they worked with my schedule to make it convenient since I live out of state. The day of was so smooth and amazing.

The team was flexible with what each girl wanted and helped make sure they were comfortable by making any changes they needed. Whether you’re looking for full glam or natural, these girls can cover it all. I knew my girls all would want something different so that was a must when I booked a team.

I hired Miranda as a day of coordinator and to assist me with the rehearsal dinner, and she was so helpful! She also spoke with my vendors ahead of my wedding to confirm that everyone had the correct details and information, giving me assurance and another set of eyes on the work I had already done. She also created a timeline for the day and shared it with the vendors as well, so it was another thing off my plate!

Working with Jonathan was such a joy for many reasons. We loved his style of videography and his ability to recap the day in such a way that all the emotions and feels rush back. When we first spoke with him on the phone at our consultation, we loved the packages that he offered, how competitive his rates were, and the flexibility within the packages. Above that, he was incredibly professional and the most organized in communication/forms/file sharing of any other vendor we worked with. Having that level of organization took off a lot of stress and weight during planning and I can say that everything leading up to the big day was nothing short of seamless. On the day of, Jonathan was such a joy to work with too. He fades into the background where it feels like he never adds to your plate on such a hectic day, and my wife and I were so impressed by how much he captured despite being so easy going in his process. On top of that, I don’t know how he runs so many camera angles so efficiently but he is a master of management and organization of his role. The last favorite thing about him is that he was so open and receptive to input on the final product, which made us feel appreciative for the flexibility, yet we entrusted the story telling and song choices to his creativity and he did nothing short of impress us. We had no complaints, and nothing we wished he handled differently, I would gladly recommend him ten times over to the next couple for a chance to relive the best day of your life.

We believe flowers should feel personal and we achieve this goal through thoughtful details, quality blooms and creative expression. Our aim is to deliver designs that feel authentic, intentional and beautifully one-of-a-kind.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Brittany from Bloom by Britt was honestly one of the best parts of planning our wedding. Out of all our vendors, she was easily my favorite. From the start, she just got it. My now husband and I can barely name more than a few flowers between the two of us, but Brittany guided us through everything and really took the time to understand our likes and dislikes without ever pushing us in a direction that did not feel like us. Brittany even took time out of her work day and traveled to come tour our venue with us to make sure she could fully execute the vision. That level of care made us feel so confident in her from the beginning. I also changed my mind on details, added things last minute, and probably was not the easiest client, but she handled everything with so much patience and flexibility. She was transparent and fair with pricing, which I appreciated so much going into this knowing basically nothing about florals. On the wedding day, everything came out beautifully and felt even better than I imagined. We got so many compliments. Beyond her talent, Brittany was just an amazing person to work with. Kind, responsive, and genuinely invested in making everything perfect. I would recommend Bloombybritt to anyone without hesitation, and I already know I will be using her again for future milestones and events. Thank you for everything, Brittany!! You helped make our day even more special.

I had the BEST experience with Daydream Floral for my August 2024 wedding at Hudson House.

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).

We can’t say enough good things about Seth! From the moment we booked him, he made the entire process feel so easy and stress-free. He was always available to answer our questions and made us feel so comfortable leading up to our wedding day. On the day of, Seth and Sarah were calm, fun, and somehow managed to be everywhere at once without ever feeling intrusive. He captured all of the big moments and so many little ones that we’ll cherish forever. The moment we went through even just our sneak peaks, we were already blown away. The photos are absolutely stunning and brought us right back to our wedding day! Hiring Seth was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we couldn’t recommend him more!!

We hired Intrinsic Groove to perform at our wedding in April 2026 and it was nothing short of INCREDIBLE. We watched a lot of videos and felt confident they were going to be great, but they far exceeded our expectations. They were high energy, crowd engaging, phenomenal performers who met the vibe every single time. Vocals were KILLER. So many of our guests said it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to and I credit a lot of that to the energy the band brought. On top of a killer reception, they also did incredible ceremony and cocktail hour music that made everything flow harmoniously. You just can’t beat a killer band for your wedding, worth every penny! Highly recommend “Like a Prayer” by Madonna to get all generations singing along!! Photo Credit to our epic photographer, Victoria of An Endless Pursuit

We pride ourselves on creating spectacular and immersive experiences.

We loved everything about EMG for our July 2025 wedding. The process of meeting and setting up a contract was easy and efficient. It was a completely tailored experience and did not feel rushed or pushed at all. He gave great recommendations and really understood what our vibe was for 115 guests. We went with an acoustic guitar player for ceremony, electric guitar cocktail hour and reception along with a DJ (Josuel lead) for the reception. We also had the photo station Photo Booth which was perfect for the setting. However our biggest compliments go to Josuel who was our lead DJ. He was organized, prepared and had an excellent presence and composure. He even sorted our last minute changes with the venues matre de because we and guests were taking too long at cocktail hour.. he figured out little changes so I didn’t have to! Above and beyond. Also he had everyone and I mean everyone dancing the whole night to a blend of 80s rock, 90s pop 2000s alt.. it was just perfect. Cannot say thank you enough to him and the whole EMG group.

I honestly had the best day of my life because of Eli! From the very beginning, she made everything feel so easy and stress-free, which meant I could actually enjoy being a bride and soak in every moment of the process. She kept us on track without ever making things feel overwhelming, was super mindful of our budget, and always helped us through decisions when we felt unsure. We trusted her completely, her vision, her recommendations, and her team, and she truly delivered the most perfect wedding day for us.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!!!

Hiring Natalie as our DOC was truly the BEST decision we made for our wedding! As a super type-A bride, I felt confident handling the planning myself, but I knew having a DOC would be helpful for executing everything on the actual day of. What I didn’t realize was just how stressful wedding planning would get in the last few months, and what a blessing it was to have Natalie there to help us along the way! She built our timeline, helped us keep track of every item we needed to bring to the venue, and reminded us of countless little details we would have otherwise forgotten. She even attended our final walkthrough at the venue to go over logistics with our maitre’d and ensure everyone was on the same page. On the wedding day, I was truly able to shut off my brain and be fully present while Natalie handled everything. She kept our schedule on track, communicated with all our vendors, led our ceremony rehearsal, and was by our side whenever we needed her—part coordinator, part therapist, part hype woman, and genuinely a friend. We honestly can’t imagine the day without her! On top of all that, she designed & built our seating chart, welcome sign & bar signs, and she KILLED it!! If we could give her a million stars, we would! If you want your day to feel effortless and you want to spend your time enjoying your wedding instead of stressing - let this be your sign to hire Lace and Rose Events!!

It was a pleasure working with Sonya and her team for our big day! From the initial phone conversation, she made sure to listen to what we wanted and came back with recommendations that really brought it to life. She ensured that we stayed within the budget parameters we set by providing various options of things we could do but, making sure everything was still of the highest quality. She even worked with our schedule to come meet us at the venue with samples to finalize all the details. A few days before the wedding we ran into a small issue around the Chuppah structure we chose and she made sure to call us right away to explain the situation, and came up with alternative solutions that did not require any additional charge. The finished product was beautiful. I’m still getting compliments on my flower arrangements a month later!! If you work with Sonya and her team, you won’t be sorry!

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.

I don't even know where to START!!!! This gal immediately became part of the crew from the first photos with the bridesmaids to the end of the night rager! Angelica and her second shooter were both incredible start to finish. Great at going with the flow but also making sure to get those photos that I had on my shot list (no matter how hard everyone was making that haha!) She had the best energy that helped me not feel nervous at all and honestly empowered from the start. She got so many amazing details that we are literally having a viewing party with all of our local guests because we just cannot choose which photos to post. I chose her because her photos and galleries all looked so different but one common theme was everyone looked like they were 1. having fun and 2. being themselves. Personally posed photos aren't for me. So when I saw her galleries I knew I wanted her above all other photographers. And I had a chart of 21 that I researched but after my first meeting with her I was sold. I chose three photos for this review- one of her capturing the insanity of our hair at the reception, Angelica being a part of the crew (my dad mentioned 3 times how great she was and how much he loved her and the second shooter) and the one where she truly shows her style of capturing natural excitement in the people and world around her.
