Eric Coleman 
Rating: 5.0 (7 reviews)
Forked River, NJ
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $1,500

Hello couples! Ive spent a lot of my career working with celebrities and professional athletes all over the world but have always had a connection with the wedding photography world and decided to go full time with that a few years ago! Im here because I love this, and believe that EVERYONE should have access to affordable, quality coverage for their special day. Id be honored to shoot your special day and seek out every moment I can for you, your family and your friends!

I can’t say enough about how incredible our experience was with Eric as our wedding photographer. Located at the Jersey Shore, where most photographers focus on sunny beach weddings, I was looking for something different. Our wedding took place in the fall, full of rich earth tones and a fun, edgy vibe that centered not just on romance, but on the presence of our children. It was important to us that the day felt authentic, emotional, and full of movement. And, just to make it more fun, ours was a Halloween wedding. We had a formal ceremony followed by a costume reception, and Eric embraced every bit of it. He didn’t just roll with our unique requests—he elevated them. He found the perfect location: a hidden gem that was edgy, raw, and exactly what I didn’t even know I was hoping for. The backdrop had this cinematic, timeless feel that makes you wonder “where in the world could they be,” which paired beautifully with our nontraditional theme. Photographing four young kids is no easy task, especially on such a big day. But Eric’s speed, patience, and instincts were unbelievable. He captured fleeting moments—tiny glances, quick smiles, the chaos and joy of our family—without ever losing sight of the romance and connection between me and my husband. Every image tells a story. Every photo feels felt. If you’re looking for a photographer who goes beyond the typical and brings a true artistic eye to your day—especially one that includes children, unconventional details, or an untraditional setting—Eric is your guy. We will treasure these photos forever.

Addiction Floral 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
Forked River, NJ
  • Florist
  • Starts at $1,500

Hi, I’m Kristine—and I’m a total flower addict. It all started in 2004 when I walked into a local flower shop hoping to land a receptionist job… and somehow never left. Fast forward 20 years, and I’m still head over heels for blooms. With a background in fine art and graphic design, I see flowers as nature’s artwork—and my favorite way to get creative. I love dreaming up floral designs that are just as unique (and fabulous) as the people I make them for.

We used Addiction Florals for our bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages. Everything came out beautifully! Kristine was able to find flowers that perfectly complemented the girls' dresses and matched my vision for minimal greenery and pops of color.

We are Mark & Brittany Edman, NJ based wedding team. Mark created “This Insane Idea” with the vision that anything is possible. As your lead shooter, he had a passion for photography his entire life, capturing moments around him in the most authentic ways until one day Brittany told him “go full time”, it was insane. He fell in love with wedding photography and the emotion it brought out for everyone involved. Coming home so happy with unique stories and photos from all over the state, Brittany knew she needed to join him on wedding days. Having a background in hospitality for 20 years Brittany began coordinating the day alongside Mark.

Mark and Brittany are truly exceptional at what they do. My husband and I are not typically in front of a camera, but Mark made us instantly comfortable in a way that allowed him to truly capture the moment between us instead of feeling like models posing for a job. We had a small wedding with no formal wedding planner or runner for the day, but Brittany and Mark helped everything to go smoothly, and we truly couldn’t have done it without them. Beyond all that, the images are truly breathtaking. Mark has an intrinsic ability to scan a space and find the most beautiful piece of it. I have never seen the inside of a train station look so magical! If you choose This Insane Idea for your special day, you will not be disappointed!

Awarded Best of Zola
Blossom and Bee were one of the approved vendors on our venue's list. It was an easy process working with Penny and her team. I was able to pin inspo pictures on a Pinterest board as well as share pictures of my dress, my husband's tux, and our wedding invitation suite. As a bride of Indian origin, I wanted bright spring florals that also complimented the industrial/French look of our venue. I was overwhelmed by the number of color combinations I was interested in and the team helped me narrow down to the best color scheme. Something to note is that you will need to provide bud vases and rent floral stands from B&B if that is something you want in your decor. Luckily my venue provided a moon gate that could be used for the ceremony, and the venue staff repurposed the florals from the ceremony to the sweetheart table.

Maria was great to work with all around. She offered a complimentary engagement shoot with our package, which I thought was really nice because it gave us a chance to get a feel for how pictures would go on our wedding day. My husband and I do not enjoy getting our photos taken and were nervous about the whole thing, but Maria did a great job with getting us to feel comfortable and the photos turned out gorgeous. I definitely would recommend Maria as a wedding photographer!

Hi! I’m Shauna — but you can call me Shay. I’m the photographer behind Milestone. What started as a side business in 2015 became my full-time dream in 2022, and I thank God daily that I get to serve amazing couples through my work. I met my husband at 15 and we’ve been together ever since, so love stories have always meant a lot to me. As a wife and mom of two adventurous boys, I know how meaningful life’s biggest milestones are. My goal is to give every couple a relaxed, fun experience and a gallery of memories you’ll treasure for a lifetime.

Milestone Photography, LLC was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. From the very first phone call, Shauna was patient, full of creative ideas, and fun to work with. Her communication style made us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of Milestone's work is truly 10 out of 10 - Shauna captured all the special moments of our day beautifully. Shauna had so many cute and fun photo ideas that we loved, and it felt like we had known her forever by the end of our wedding. We felt so comfortable chatting with her and walking around with her taking our photos. Shauna was so wonderful from start to finish, and we are thrilled with the amazing photos that will help us remember our special day for years to come.

I got married 3 weeks ago and I am still OBSESSING over my flowers made by Cascade Queen Designs. I LOVED them! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dana and her small business. If you want to save money on wedding florals that will die in a matter of days, this is the way to do it! Her price was affordable and worth every penny. Dana had excellent communication and would respond to all my questions quickly. She walked me through the process step by step, and she also worked hard to recreate my "inspo" pictures I sent her. She even texted me a suggestion to darken one of the colors I picked so that the colors would be more cohesive. Her instincts were spot on, and I'm so glad I listened to her advice. (Other vendors would have just gone with the original colors I picked and not said a thing to me!) The best part - you get to keep your beautiful bouquets forever! Do not hesitate - hire her for your wedding!
