WOW! I can not say enough on how appreciative I am of Bari and Antonia. A month before my wedding I realized I desperately needed Day of Coordinators. Bari and Antonia were so responsive and assuring. They took on my wedding with such grace. No request of mine was too much. They travelled all the way to Jersey City from Philly and were so accomodating. They spent time with all our vendors on the day of the wedding, helping set up with the florist and some of my DIY decor. They made sure my ceremony procession ran smoothly. They made sure all the little details were taken care of. The night of my wedding, the only thought I had was to have a good time, and thats because Bari and Antonia did the rest. I couldn't recommend them more if you need help on your wedding day.

My love for floral design began inside the horticulture classroom at my high school. That classroom played a pivotal role in allowing me to be creative in ways that I never had been before. When I left for college, My goal was to study business in order to operate my own Floral Business but I quickly lost track of that dream. The pandemic served as a wake up call for me just like it did for so many others. Allowing me to rediscover my love for flowers and all things beautiful. Bazarr Blossoms is more than a business its a passion that allows me to stay true to that teenager who once created and dreamed inside that high school classroom.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a wonderful experience with Bazarr Blossoms. Bazarr was so collaborative and really listened and incorporated our preferences into our wedding day florals. She was able to make adjustments later in our event planning process which was a huge relief. Also, she was able to respond to issues that presented themselves day-of beautifully. I loved my bouquet and all the greenery and candles for our ceremony and dining space was so perfect.

Awarded Best of Zola
Brian, owner of Posh Life DJ Collective (aka DJ Geometrix), went above and beyond for us, significantly exceeding our expectations on our wedding day. We cannot thank him enough! Brian really got our party started, mixing tracks and reading our dance floor to give the crowd more of what they loved the most. We had a crowd of mixed age ranges and diverse cultural backgrounds, and Brian made sure that everyone felt included and inspired to dance!  Not only is Brian a great DJ, he's also a talented and personable business owner. He was very attentive to our specific desires for genres to play, and he has a great app platform that allowed us to select specific songs and fill out our preferences for various aspects of his role. This made the process very easy and organized. He also spent time to (last-minute) mix and cut our mismatched procession songs to blend them seamlessly, taking a potentially ugly transition and making it beautiful! Another great advantage to working with Brian is the way he prices. He gives you one price and is available for the entire event. He set up outside for us and allowed us to use his mics and sound equipment for our ceremony at no additional cost. This saved us a lot of money and simplified the planning process for us as he ironed out those details for us. I am so grateful to Brian. He's extremely professional, reachable, relatable, and a really great guy to work with!

He knew the timeline of the day and had some great creative ideas for the video and for my photographer. When my video was sent to us my husband and I described it as a “Hollywood film”.

Mae was an absolute pleasure to work with. I knew I liked her from the very first call. She was thorough and asked good questions to make sure she could capture what we wanted. I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough. I loved all the photos and the video made me cry. Mae is the type of person you want to be friends with after everything is done. Trust me, book Mae!!

Broadside Visuals is an exclusive intentional wedding visual brand looking to tell stories. If you're looking for a perfume commercial, a montage, boring, etc then I'd suggest searching else where for your wedding vendors. Our work speaks for itself and caters to couples seeking something different that encapsulates a memory which can be experienced over and over.

My jaw dropped when I saw my wedding photos. They are so beautiful and I cannot pick a favorite one! Libby is a gem and captured everything. Our photos are what we wanted and much much more. I cannot stop sharing my photos with my friends and family.

Hiiiii, I’m Kylee—Your Wedding Photographer (Read: Fun-Tographer) And as your fun-tographer you won’t catch me moving you 3 centimeters over for the “perfect shot” or telling you to throw a soft smile my way. Or trying to tone down the colors of your silly selves or your wedding bash, in any way. But you sure as hell will catch me snagging photos of you belly-laughing at each other, telling you to draw a shape on your partner’s cheek with your nose (bonus points if it’s something funny…), or letting you know if your fly is down or there’s lipstick on your teeth.

Working with Kylee B Photography was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Kylee captured our engagement session in Lancaster and our wedding day in Philadelphia, and every single photo is filled with life, color, and emotion. Her vibrant, bold style was the perfect match for our celebration. Beyond her incredible talent, Kylee brought such fun, positive energy to the entire experience. She made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera and kept the whole day light, joyful, and full of laughter. She also added so many thoughtful touches that made the whole experience feel extra special. We especially love the candid photos she took of us and our guests—they’re full of laughter, connection, and little moments we’ll never forget. We’ll truly cherish these memories forever and feel so lucky to have had Kylee by our side for such an important part of our story!

I highly recommend working with Taylor for your wedding and any other special event! She is so easy to work with and takes the time to really understand your personal vision and aesthetic. She communicates well, asks thoughtful questions, and is more than willing to change and customize your details as many times as needed to get everything just right! I rented decor from Taylor, but I ended up with so much more than I would have expected - a personalized experience with exceptional service! Most importantly, Taylor took on a special project of creating a custom statement piece from scratch to make my seating chart dreams come true! She made sure all the details of this piece and all the other decor looked absolutely perfect on our wedding day! I was completely confident in Taylor and her abilities to collaborate with the venue staff and the results were stunning! I can’t thank and recommend her enough!

Lindsay and Greg have been a pleasure to work with so far! My fiance had them there to photograph our proposal and I liked them so much that we booked them for our engagement and wedding sessions as well. We are both slower to open up type of people and Lindsay and Greg have been really easy to talk to. We didn't feel awkward and were comfortable with them. We have some beautiful photos and everyone has complimented their work. I can be anxious, but Lindsay has been really easy to work with. She has a calm presence and I really like how she's set me at ease! Lindsay and Greg targeted their work to match things that we wanted to incorporate. I shared some Pinterest images with Lindsay and she saved them and actually posed us in them during our session! I offhandedly mentioned one of my favorite shots from our proposal during our engagement shoot and they came up with something so cute to do that matched the vibe of that right then and there! I also was honest with Lindsay about poses I didn't like up front and she made sure to pose me in a way that I felt like allowed me to be more confident and comfortable. We can't wait to see what they can do at our wedding!
