We absolutely loved everything about our experience at Skyview. From the moment we toured the venue, our breath was taken away with the majestic scenic views of the Appalachia. Our decision was further cemented when we learned everything that was included in their wedding package, an incredible value that beat all of the other venues we visited by a significant margin. We don't want to ruin it for anyone, but honestly they could double their rates and it'd still be worth it. The support from the staff at Skyview (specifically Jenn, Hildegaard, and Ivan) both during the planning process and on the day of our wedding was prompt, thoughtful, and comprehensive. We have never gotten married before but we can't imagine working with a more professional staff that made our planning unbelievably seamless and stress-free. Our guests echoed our sentiment with rave feedback about the picturesque scenery, the epic food, the beautiful cocktail hour space, and the stunning and classy reception room. Skyview is a hidden gem that I hope gets all the recognition they deserve!

Hey all you adventurous care free lovers! Thanks for being here. My name is Alyssa and I’m a nj based wedding and elopement photographer. I travel all over the US and beyond as well. When I’m not photographing weddings you can find me curled up with a fantasy book or at the gym or hanging out with my three daughters. My style of photography can be defined as documentary. I love capturing perfect moments that are happening organically as opposed to posing you through every part of your day. I like for my couples to enjoy the day as it’s happening and not stress about every second being dictated by a photographer. Let’s chat!

We first worked with Alyssa for our engagement photos and knew we had to book her for our wedding! She was responsive, kind, helpful and helped in anyway that she could on our wedding day! The turnaround time for our photos was amazing and we are so happy with the photos! We 1000% recommend Alyssa from Oceans to Mountains Photography!

My husband and I got married at the CKE this October 2024. There aren’t enough words to express our gratitude to their entire team for all of their hard work to make our visions and dreams come to life. Each and every staff member was kind, and helpful. If you had a question you’d get a response promptly and always with a “let’s see what we can do attitude”. Katherine (the owner) made you feel a part of the CKE family and always was looking to make the planning process seamless and easy for us and our family. The CKE floral and design team made our big ideas all come to life- we had a visions of big branching centerpieces with florals tucked in, that Jess and her team absolutely delivered on. On top of that, we asked for an installation over our sweetheart table. Jess and her team have many suggestions and shared they visited Home Depot at least 3 times to see how it would hang, and the final installation beyond exceeded our expectations. The talent and grace their team exudes is what ever bride and groom look for in a team. The planning process was also so seamless due to their amazing coordinator team. We worked with Katrina, the kindest, most professional coordinator we have ever met. Katrina was available at every step of the planning process, providing thoughtful recommendations due to her very obvious experience. Katrina also was there for our wedding day of helping to manage the schedule, set up, constantly checking in, and making sure it all went according to plan (which it did). In addition during the reception Katrina was checking with us throughout the night to see if we wanted to pivot anything or if we needed anything. We are extremely grateful for her support! In addition, Kyle was our maitre d’ for the evening and he did an absolutely wonderful job. He made sure to check in with my husband and I as well as our immediate family members. He was so kind and professional! Lastly but very importantly- the food and drinks! Most of all of our guests shared that this was the best wedding food they have ever had. It is no small feat cooking for large groups and every aspect of the food from the cocktail hour to the dinner course was absolutely fantastic. These are a few quotes from guests: - “The food was gourmet.” - “This is the real deal.” - “The sushi… Oh, the sushi! So fresh!” In addition, the bartenders crushed it! Everyone was impressed by the quality of the drinks and we never had a line at the bar- they were fast and catered to our guests. I would highly recommend the CKE to future couples getting married. The aspect of the family business really shows and ensures you have a tailored experience for your wedding. The entire staff is kind and down to earth- always willing to help. We wish them nothing but the best for their future wedding seasons!

From the moment I met Becky, I knew I had found my wedding photographer. She was so bubbly and easy to talk to. She answered ALL the questions I had and put my mind at ease with each email I sent. I had a smaller wedding with approximately 75 guests. It was both mine and my husband's second marriage and we wanted a more relaxed fun atmosphere, with lots of actions and candid shots. Both Becky and Brianna exceeded our expectations. I have so many "in the moment" candid shots, along with the "traditional " type family photos. Everyone at the wedding commented on how my photographers weren't intrusive and were actually fun! I will definitely be recommending Love & Loves Photography to all my family and friends!

I have been a client of Victoria’s for the past two years. Victoria has done both my hair and makeup for some of the most important events of my life. She recently was the main makeup artist for my wedding on 11/9/24. Almost immediately after I asked her to work my wedding, Victoria assembled a team to work my 18 person party. The most stressful part of my planning I thought would be makeup scheduling but Victoria absolutely took that task over and put me at ease. The smoothest part of my day was makeup and she ensured every single girl looked beautiful and was happy with their looks. She was my personal makeup artist the entire day and stuck by my side touching my face up whenever needed. I did not worry once how my pictures would turn out because I was so confident every moment she ensured her work looked beautiful. Victoria is a one of a kind person to work with. She truly cares about her clients and has a passion for her work that is unmatched. Whether she is doing your wedding or a smaller event , she will give you the same amount of effort 1000% and beyond because that’s just who she is!

Lupe is INCREDIBLE. Our wedding was 6/7/25, and I did a trial with her for my bridal shower on 4/6/25. She’s willing to travel to you for the trial (in addition to the wedding of course) which helped me out SO much! I felt like the most beautiful person on the planet on my wedding day and that’s truly all thanks to Lupe. She perfected my makeup and hair to exactly the way I wanted it. And the two hair & makeup artists she brought with her to take care of my bridesmaids???? They were also INCREDIBLE. My bridesmaids all couldn’t stop gushing about how much they loved their hair and makeup and honestly I was shocked because I have a few hard pleasers! Lupe is just so professional and it truly shows: she helped throughout the entire hair extension purchase process to make sure I got the perfect style and color for my hair, then cleaned and prepped the hair extensions for me and gave me a hair extension bag to store them in, started massaging my shoulders on my wedding day when I was stressing over the weather and the possibility of having to bring the wedding indoors, greatly helped the photographers with all their photos even after she was already done with my hair and makeup, then stayed behind to touch all us girls up after we got drizzled on by rain for our getting ready photos outside, and even gave me a touch up kit before she left for the day. She is just A service and SO worth every penny - I highly suggest her to anyone who needs hair/makeup and she’s also such a pleasure to be around and speak with!!! I’ve attached some photos from my wedding day so you can see for yourself how amazing her work is!!

Hey there, I'm Jordany Almonte, but you can call me "Jordan" – a friendly guy based in the state of New Jersey with a passion for life and a big heart for family. I take immense pride in being a devoted husband and a proud father; they are the driving force behind everything I do. To me, photography is more than just capturing images; it's a way of feeling, touching, and loving the world around me. What I capture in the film holds the essence of the moment, preserving memories that we can cherish forever. Those little things, often overlooked, can bring floods of emotions long after our other memories have faded.

The Hobbyist Studio was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. Jordan's professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail made our wedding day truly unforgettable. He captured the essence of our special day with his stunning photographs, which we will treasure for a lifetime. What impressed us most about Jordan was his ability to make us feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. He took the time to understand our vision and preferences, and his expertise shone through in every aspect of his work. We couldn't be happier with the beautiful memories he has provided us.

If you’re looking for a photographer who will exceed all the expectations you have for your wedding look no further! I have nothing but good things to say about Jia. From our engagement photos to our actual wedding every picture he took was beautiful and came out better than I could have imagined. We were having a 150 person wedding and at first I was a bit nervous about only having 1 shooter with Frame Your Love, but I don’t regret it one bit. Jia managed to capture every detail and not a moment of the wedding was missed. 10/10 recommend. I have truly have no complaints. His communication was great, he was reasonably priced, and I got my photos back with full editing quickly. Do yourself a favor and book with Jia at Frame Your Love Photography!!!

Petite Planning was born from our own wedding planning journeys, where we felt lost, completely unsure if we were getting a good deal or not, and overwhelmed with all the resources online nowadays about how to plan a wedding. Our team is comprised of planners from a variety of backgrounds - investment banking, special needs education, corporate event planning, marketing and PR, and more. These diverse experiences allow us to fully understand what it's like trying to plan a wedding while juggling everything life throws at you. We're here to make the process seamless for our couples, while keeping it fun!

From the moment we hired Petite Planning Company, we knew we were in excellent hands. Amanda and her team were incredibly detailed, knowledgeable, and organized throughout the entire planning process. Their outstanding work and valuable contributions ensured that our wedding day logistics were flawless. The detailed day-of itinerary kept everything running smoothly, and we didn't have to worry about a single thing. In the end, our special day was even more amazing thanks to the Petite Planning team. I highly recommend them to any couple looking to make their wedding day perfect.

We had an incredible experience working with The Luke Films for our wedding videography. Lucas is easy to communicate with, and prompt to respond to your questions. Lucas and his team are genuine, kind and professional, helping to provide direction and guidance for my husband and I who are not used to being behind a camera. Our instagram reel was timed perfectly to the song suggestion we had provided, and truly captured how special our ceremony felt to us, no notes! We are so excited to see more of his content with the previews we have had. We truly had an amazing experience working with Lucas and would 1000 percent recommend to book him for your wedding!

An event at Fox and Bear Lodge is a dream! I had the pleasure of being the Sommelier at a Private Dinner Event Fox and Bear Lodge. The Chandelier Room is the perfect location for a private party and this birthday celebration. It provides an intimate, cozy but elevated and sophisticated atmosphere. Guests celebrated and basked in the glow of candles and the overhead chandeliers as they enjoyed their custom five course dinner with curated wine pairings The onsite team is wonderful - friendly, knowledgeable and so helpful. Working with Brant is a joy. He is focused, detail oriented and committed to giving every client and guest a fantastic, warm and memorable experience. I look forward to working there again soon. Highly recommended for any events!

Chef’s Culinary Journey, never in my life have I had food this good. The food was out of this world, we loved the organic farm-to-chefs-to-plate concept. I am still getting calls from family members and friends stating that my wedding was the BEST wedding that they have ever been to. If I had to go back and re-plan my wedding, the first thing I would do is book Chef’s Culinary Journey again. They’ve been awesome collaborators and contributors in helping us realize our vision. Paul was amazing during the planning stages. Every member of the team was very responsive and helpful. And they did work within our budget. I absolutely would recommend them again and again
