“My wedding was this past weekend, and I still want to shout Amanda's praises from every rooftop! Hire her now! We had a complex wedding design: a full three-night, four-day weekend with several different spaces and layouts involved, and different guest lists for each day. Amanda handled everything masterfully. Every detail was exactly as we imagined (and more!), and she was a true joy to work with. My mother and I have different working styles and visions, and somehow Amanda found a way to meet both of our needs at each turn and help us avoid any conflict with one another. Amanda is highly detail-oriented and has a way of handling so many things "behind the scenes" and well in advance of the wedding - including crafting much of the decor and guest gifts weeks in advance, then personally transporting them to the wedding. It was efforts like this that really set her apart from other planners -- measurably reducing our stress each moment and taking things off our very full plates. We will genuinely miss speaking and working with Amanda. Our only regret was not hiring her sooner - she joined us after we had personally booked our venue and a handful of vendors, but having her with us earlier would have only enhanced our planning process.”

It was perfect for our wedding of about 50 people. We wanted our wedding to feel very intimate, and Tourmaline was the perfect space for that. Our wedding day was magical, in large part thanks to the efforts of Rebecca, Yvan, and the staff at Tourmaline. First, the food was absolutely amazing. My husband and I are both foodies, and all of the food served at our wedding exceeded our expectations. Our guests also raved about the hors d'oeuvres.

Each order is thoughtfully curated with fresh ingredients and a strong focus on presentation. Saffron Soirée is best suited for intimate weddings, showers, and smaller gatherings where details matter and food is part of the experience.

“Pooja made the grazing table for my bridal suite, and it was honestly one of my favorite parts of the whole wedding morning. Walking in and seeing everything so beautifully arranged immediately set the mood. It felt special, elegant, and just so thoughtfully done. Not only did everything look gorgeous, but it also tasted amazing. You could tell the ingredients were fresh and that a lot of care went into every detail. My bridal party kept going back for more, and everyone was asking who made it. What I appreciated most was how easy Pooja was to work with. During a time that can feel stressful, she was calm, organized, and reliable, which meant so much to me. She really helped make the morning feel relaxed and joyful. I’m so grateful we chose her, and I would recommend her to anyone planning a special event. She truly adds something memorable to the experience.”

I believe great photography is made when moments of humanity are captured, especially in just the right light. Weddings require a photographer who can capture it all: portraits, tender moments, unexpected moments, touching stories, warm family relationships, beautiful venues, dancing, and sometimes even sparklers! Photographing weddings is exciting, challenging, satisfying, and never boring! I'll work closely with you to make the best of it. ~ Tom

“Tom was an absolutely AMAZING photographer! He was patient with all of the chaos ensuing in my parent’s home, he was down to earth, also, he was funny and so sweet! The photos that he took at our wedding are incredible, that you can see he has an artistic eye! He was on time for every occasion, and even wanted us to squeeze in a few more photos while the reception was occurring since the sun was setting! I saw that he worked really well with the videographer too! He was observant about everything. I am so glad I had Tom as my wedding photographer.”

“From our first call with Ben, we knew we would be in good hands for our September 2025 wedding. After briefly discussing the type of music we love, Ben immediately understood our vibe and listed off several other artists he correctly assumed we were fans of. Leading up to the wedding, he was very easy to communicate with, taking time to understand what we were looking for and the different vibes we were hoping to create. We were impressed with just how well-versed he is in different genres of music. On the wedding day, Ben brought that same positive and energetic energy, which made our wedding so special. We trusted him 100% with the party he was creating, and he did not disappoint! We also rented a photo booth from NT Weddings which was, of course, a total hit. (photos attached).

We are a Queens-based community roastery that brings craft hot and iced drinks to the greater NYC area. Started with a mission to build community at our brick and mortar in Elmhurst, we expanded to do mobile so that we can be a part of building community through the connection of coffee throughout New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.

“We loved having Elm Roastery at our wedding! My husband and I have a long history of fond memories and treasured conversations shared over a coffee, and we are so joyful that Elm was able to bring this to life and help us share this tradition with our loved ones. A highlight I want to note in my review is how professional and kind their barista was. The coffee enthusiasts of our bunch had so much fun asking questions and learning about their workflow and craft coffee process. Our friends and family also really enjoyed trying drinks that they may not have tried otherwise, and had only great things to say about them! Plus, coffeecake3. We also found their offerings to be at a great value. Their communication, attention to detail, and rates make it clear that their heart and passion is in the coffee and connection. They made a custom menu for us and, in addition to standard offerings, had decaf, alternative milks, flavor syrups, chai, teas, and hot cocoa available. There was absolutely something for everyone! The Elm Roastery coffee cart would be a lovely addition to any gathering, but for us personally, it was also a great way to offer something fun and new drink-wise after a late lunch as we did not have alcohol at our celebration. If you are also looking at throwing a sober wedding (or any other kind of wedding), I would highly recommend and consider having the Elm coffee cart! Elm Roastery is a Queens gem and they added such warmth and joy to our day. You should 100% message Peter. Like right now. P.S. you can preview their coffee at their cafe in Elmhurst so you don't have to just take my word for it!”

Most couples who work with me take their relationship seriously, but don't take themselves too seriously. They're educated, do Wordle, read the NY Times and have a healthy sense of reality. Since 2011, I've been writing and performing personal, meaningful and refreshingly engaging ceremonies. Couples work with me in an easy, collaborative way. I take guest experience and your wishes very seriously. I have the ability to command a room, a writer's knack for shaping a story, an emcee's sense of timing, and experience at the most prestigious venues. My BFA in Acting (Boston University) and MFA in Creative Writing (NYU) serve me well.

“I cannot say enough amazing things about Chris!! He came super highly recommended by our planner so we felt lucky to be able to book him for our date. From the first meeting, Chris was engaging and fun, yet professional and had a clear process that he explained to us. That process, included questions that dove deep into our relationship and love story and was extremely fun for us to complete. As I look back, his process feels like a super special part of the planning process. Then came wedding day…. Chris was phenomenal!!! The ceremony was so fun and exactly our vibe. He involved our guests the perfect amount and the ceremony felt so special and exactly what we wanted. Multiple guests raved about him, but beyond that, told me they got a chance to talk with him afterwards which I thought was so special that he stayed and engaged with guests. I would rate him more than five stars if I could, book Chris Shelley!!!”

“Kenny was one of the best vendor decisions we made for our wedding. From our first meeting, he was professional, attentive, and incredibly organized. He took the time to meet with us multiple times before the wedding and really got to know us as a couple, which made all the difference on the big day. One of my favorite things about working with Kenny was how well he understood our vibe. My husband and I love Afrohouse music, but we had a very multicultural, multigenerational guest list. Kenny found the perfect balance between incorporating the music we love while keeping the dance floor packed and making sure guests of all ages and backgrounds had an amazing time. It never felt like he was playing a generic wedding playlist; everything felt intentional and tailored to us. His setup looked beautiful, and the uplighting completely transformed the reception space. It created such an incredible atmosphere and brought the whole room to life. Throughout the night, he kept everything running smoothly, from announcements to transitions and dancing. If you’re looking for a DJ who is professional, experienced, and truly takes the time to understand your vision, Kenny is the one. We couldn’t have been happier and would recommend him to anyone getting married in NYC.”

Hey there! My name is Marilyn. I live in New York City with my sweet partner, and our orange cat Maple. I’m an introverted, soft-hearted mush with an insatiable need to document the beauty in life. Practicing self-portraits in middle school eventually led me to pursue my photography degree from New York University, and I have been joyfully creating photos of wedding days ever since. To me, weddings are a magical display of the human spirit. It’s my biggest honor and joy to create imagery that captures that human magic - especially in a way that breaks the boundaries of historically gendered traditions.

“Working with Marilyn was such a treat. She’s so warm, and communicating with her is a breeze. Both my husband and I were more interested in capturing the moments of our wedding day rather than spending loads of time on staged family portraits. Marilyn and her assistant Emma were great at getting the shots your grandparents will want while also capturing the essence of your night. She asked great questions, made sure we felt comfortable at every turn, and fully captured the essence of my (camera-shy) husband. Don’t hesitate to work with her!!”

However, after meeting with Una and discussing the seemingly infinite possibilities for the space (along with soaking in the spectacular views of NYC), we were completely sold on the venue. We are so glad we made the choice to celebrate our wedding at Sound River Studios! We took advantage of the dock at the venue and had our guests arrive to cocktail hour by boat which was a unique highlight. The dock is also a beautiful spot for photos!

“We originally looked at more “industrial” venues because we wanted that intimate feel and didn’t love catering hall vibes. We found Renaissance as we live close by and loved it once we toured initially. They have the space of a catering hall but the experience of a single party venue. Food was great and we never felt like we were being uncharged/swindled. Even at one point we saw an error on the agreement and Lisa changed it no problem. She was a delight to work with and never made us feel like our ask was so unbelievable. Bridal suite was big enough for 10 people to get ready.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I could not have asked for a better photographer in any respect. Maya is extremely communicative, warm, welcoming, and excellent at what they do. I was incredibly nervous selecting a photographer because I had no idea what I was doing. During my first meeting with Maya, they put me completely at ease and walked me through the process, their photography philosophy, figured out what my spouse and I would/wouldn’t like in our photos, and even helped us get a sense of how our day’s timeline would go. Since we planned the entire wedding ourselves, their help even from this first meeting was invaluable. Maya and their partner the day-of were an absolute blast to have at the event. Even the usual stiff family formal photos felt fun and organic with their guidance, and they were always up for impromptu shots and suggestions. They make sure that their work is organic, dynamic, and really captures the essence of the couple’s relationship. I asked them to use my Polaroid alongside their professional gear and they were really enthusiastic about the prospect, so now I have a set of excellent Polaroids in addition to their amazing high definition work. My spouse and I will absolutely be going back to Maya in the future for more photography. Some advice: Don’t waste your time shopping around with other photographers. If you’ve found Maya, you’ve found the perfect wedding photographer.”

“Courtney was introduced to us by a dear friend, and it was the best gift we could have received. She and her amazing team were so kind, professional, patient, and truly went the extra mile. They helped us set up all our tables- from gifts for our guests to our Polaroid booth and memorial table. They even helped us pull off a last minute fun surprise during our first dance! And then packed up everything perfectly for us while we enjoyed the last moments of our day. Trust me, you NEED Courtney and her team for your day! Best decision. 100/10 recommend!”

I believe that a wedding ceremony should be more than just words. It should feel like home. A moment so personal and full of love that it stays with you forever. That’s what I create for every couple I marry. I’m not just an officiant - I’m your friend, your guide, and your biggest cheerleader. I’ll be there to steady your nerves, share a laugh, and remind you to soak it all in. Because your love story is one-of-a-kind, and your ceremony should be too.

Awarded Best of Zola
“We had a small wedding with our children and close family. My wife’s favorite city is NYC. Jackie was incredibly helpful with recommendations for flowers, makeup and places to eat. We wrote our own vows and Jackie wrote a perfect ceremony incorporating a poem my wife sent me early in our relationship. It was a beautiful day made even more special by Jackie and Sascha. We feel so lucky to have found the Reinkings.”
