Mateja Violin 
Rating: 5.0 (13 reviews)
Fort Lauderdale, FL
  • Ceremony only
  • Starts at $275

Mateja Violin is a wedding musician based in Pompano Beach, Florida. She performs acoustic violin only. Mateja is a graduate of the Frost School of Music at the University of Miami, where she earned a Bachelor’s degree in violin performance. She also has a Master’s degree in violin performance from Florida International University. She has and continues to perform with many different orchestras, including the Symphony of the Americas, the South Florida Symphony, and Orchestra Delray. She has played at two concerts with The Who as well. This professional delights in providing elegant music to your special day, helping to elevate the occasion.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Mateja to play violin at our wedding ceremony, and she was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Her communication was prompt and professional, and she offered a wide selection of songs to choose from, which made it easy to curate a meaningful playlist for our day. She arrived early, was fully prepared, and followed all our cues perfectly throughout the ceremony. The acoustic violin created a beautiful atmosphere, especially during the quiet moments of the processional. However, due to the open-air nature of our courtyard venue, some of the music—particularly during the recessional—was harder to hear until we walked closer to her. This is something to keep in mind depending on your venue's layout. That said, Mateja’s performance was elegant and heartfelt, and her professionalism truly stood out. We'd absolutely recommend her to any couple looking to add a romantic, live music touch to their ceremony.

Having Nicole and Hillary do the hair and makeup for my wedding was a game changer. They were so friendly and personable. They did hair and makeup for 6 adults and 1 child quickly. The heat and humidity in S FL in September is brutal, but my hair lasted literally until I washed it the next day. My makeup lasted all night until I took it off. The same goes for the other ladies. I was so afraid of frizzy hair and messy makeup with the heat and sweat but these ladies are apparently magicians. Thank you both!!!

Oh... hello. You made it. That's nice. This won't take long, if you poke around a bit you'll probably find what you're looking for. There are some photos, some words... and hopefully they help you decide if I'm the right person to document your wedding. I like to photograph moments that happen naturally, without too much fuss. If you're into that-if you're ok with a little wind in your hair, or a cake that leans slightly to the left-then maybe we'd get along just fine.

Loy was such a great photographer to work with. Not only does he bring a super relaxed and chill vibe to the party, he’s a seasoned professional who snaps stellar photos! We loved his style of photography & looking back at the photos, I couldn’t imagine having gone with another photographer. He really captured the vibe of our day. He gave us guidance when we needed it (mainly things like ‘relax’ & ‘be in the moment’ which was so great to hear). We can’t say enough great things about him, thanks Loy!

Awarded Best of Zola
We worked with Keith to plan our February wedding at The Palms in Miami, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better partner. He made the whole process feel easy and fun, and he really understood us from the start. He came up with ideas that were so perfectly “us” — like the Bravo-style confessional video booth and the coconuts with our names on them. Those ended up being some of the biggest hits of the night. Since we were planning everything from across the country, having someone we could fully trust meant everything. He handled all the vendor negotiations, and every single vendor he brought in was reliable, on time, and clearly loved working with him. On the actual day, Keith was unbelievably organized. Everything ran smoothly, the flowers were beautiful, and we never had a moment of stress. We’re so grateful we got to work with him.

Dan was prompt and through in all communication. He was a huge asset as I planned my first large party. He was able to offer suggestions along the way that helped us as we planned - even in regards to his knowledge having been at the venue before and working with other vendors. Dan was patient through a lot of back and forth admittedly as a lot of people helping plan had opinions and input, funneled through me to him so that we could best prepare for the party. He took care of the playlist and left it up to us how much input we want to have versus sample playlists he already curated. He took requests from guests as well. He assisted with event flow and Emceeing (it was helpful that he helped me come up with a "run of the show" timeline for the event). Dan helped us make this event a huge success, and I hope to work with him again soon!

Light Sky Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
Fort Lauderdale, FL
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500

So here’s the thing, we’re not just here to take pretty pictures. We’re here to document the way it felt. The big stuff, the little stuff, the blink and you miss it kind of stuff. Based in sunny (and sometimes very rainy) South Florida, but always chasing stories wherever they take us. We don’t do stiff poses or fake smiles. We don’t yell “say cheese.” We watch. We wait. We get the shot while you’re living the moment. Our style is a little moody, a little wild, and deeply human, like love itself. If you’re into that, we’re probably into you too.

From the moment we met Erika and Loy for our engagement shoot, we knew we had found something special. They made two self-proclaimed awkward people feel totally at ease in front of the camera. It didn’t feel like posing—it felt like laughing, dancing, and being fully ourselves, all while they worked their magic. The photos captured not just how we looked, but who we are. We walked away from that session with more than beautiful images—we walked away with memories. Fast forward to our wedding day, and they absolutely blew us away. Our friends and family keep raving about the photos: “absolutely stunning,” “so artsy,” “journalistic,” “soulful,” and “hilarious and beautiful at the same time.” The photos brought the emotion of the day flooding back—joy, intimacy, hilarity, and everything in between. Every little detail, every fleeting look, every big, beautiful moment—it’s all there. They somehow captured the energy of the day, not just the visuals. We’ve gone through the gallery more times than we can count, and each time we see something new to love. From my dad’s emotional first look to the spontaneous dance floor chaos to those quiet moments between us in Adirondack chairs—it’s all so genuine and full of heart. Working with Erika and Loy wasn’t just hiring photographers—it was inviting two incredibly talented, kind, and charismatic humans into some of the most important moments of our lives. We can’t imagine having had anyone else there with us. If you’re considering them—do it. Truly, 10 out of 10.

Emily was a complete professional and it gave us comfort knowing she had worked with basically all our vendors for years.

I've had the pleasure of working with Urban PopUp Events on several weddings and events and can confidently say they are a top-notch planning team. Their communication is always timely, professional, and informative, making the entire process easy and seamless. Their quality of work is truly outstanding - and Rachell, the owner is dedicated to the details and will go above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly. On the weddings we've collaborated on, they've consistently shown up on time, been great to work with, and effectively coordinated all the details for the couple and vendors. Would highly recommend Urban PopUp Events to any couple looking for a wedding planning team that will make their day extra special.

  • Starts at $3,200

Tiny House Photo is a LGBTQ+ women owned documenting love stories with intention. Stephanie, the photographer behind Tiny House Photo, is located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida but travels often around the country to photograph couples, elopements and weddings.

Awarded Best of Zola
I've referred Tiny House Photo for multiple weddings including my little sister’s and now my own. My now husband hired Tiny House Photo to photograph our proposal and engagement session in Nashville, Stephanie then made the pilgrimage to Tallahassee for a 2nd engagement session when Covid threw itself into the mix, and Tiny House Photo was there when we finally had our big day in South Florida. It’s been magic every single time. I'll never be able to adequately express how deeply I love every single image that Tiny House Photo has taken. Stephanie expertly captures both our love and every last moment shared together. Tiny House Photo will be there for all of my life’s major moments and will continue to be who I recommend to anyone and everyone I know!
