“We got married at The Bonnie in Astoria in August and LOVED our DJ, Jen Jones. We did share a number of playlists with her and she got the vibe we were going for and picked the exact right songs each moment of the night including one of my parents' favorite slow songs which I didn't even think to mention. We also had some friends play live music for our ceremony and Jen was very helpful meeting with them beforehand and communicating directly with our venue the week before the wedding. We had some technical hurdles/transitions that Jen managed perfectly. I wanted a specific transition from a video I showed and Jen was able to transition from it very smoothly! She also was very aware of the vibe. I was so lost in the moment I lost track of time and she was very on top of making sure we got all of our scheduled plans done! We had a big range of ages at our wedding and a consistently packed, high energy dance floor thanks to Jen's work! Non-Traditional Wedding DJs was easy to communicate with and the worksheet provided helped us a lot, especially since we did not use a wedding planner. Would definitely recommend them no matter what you are going for!”

  • Serves Fresh Meadows, NY

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.

“My wife and I absolutely loved having Elm Roastery's coffee cart at our wedding. It's a unique addition to a wedding, perfect for coffee lovers. I have to preface that we knew Elm Roastery very well before our wedding. They've established a place in the Elmhurst community for their excellent beverages made with a rotating selection of beans freshly-roasted on-site, delicious pastries, and for their dedication to creating a special space for community events and partnerships. We often frequented their cafe before our wedding, and every time we return for coffee now, it brings back warm memories. We were ecstatic to discover their coffee cart service, and quickly booked them for our wedding. We added-on ube lattes and 40 almond croissants, and custom cups & banner. They more than delivered, the design was elegant and charming! Our guests quickly snatched up the croissants, and were lined up for the coffee throughout the booking. It was a huge hit. We used our newlyweds' privilege to skip the line and managed to grab coffee and croissants for a much needed break in our fun but busy day. Compared to the gut-wrenching quotes from our other vendors (catering, photo, makeup), it was clear they offered a great value, without the severe "wedding tax" you'll see from your other vendors. It was a no-brainer for us. You won't regret hiring them for your wedding; we certainly didn't. They were one of the most memorable amenities at our wedding -- a treat for us, as much as it is for our guests. And you'll be happy to know you're supporting a small-business that is truly dedicated to improving the local community.”

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
“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.

She got amazing candids at our reception and blended in with the other guests, making it easy to capture off-the-cuff photos. 10/10, recommend for your wedding, engagement photos, etc!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“We had the pleasure of hosting our intimate wedding for just over 50 guests at the Renaissance Event Hall in May 2024. The event space is beautiful— although the surrounding area is a bit rough, it’s a space that’s large enough to really bring your vision to life. Originally, our ceremony was supposed to be held on the outdoor patio but after a “rain plan” rehearsal we decided to have the ceremony indoors to make use of the beautiful grand staircase. Affordable space— for NYC? Absolutely. Food— great! Bar— great! Staff— amazing! Shout out to Larry for the amazing lighting. Both Larry and Lisa went above and beyond to make sure guests were served, comfortable, and having a great time. My only wish was that there was a separate groom suite that’s apart from the bridal suite. Here we had to use a foldable partition to separate the bride side from the groom side. Also, our rehearsal was double booked with another wedding party the day before our wedding which was a bit disappointing having to wait and navigate around their rehearsal to complete ours. However, this just seemed to be a simple miscommunication between Lisa and her assistant which I’m hoping won’t be the case with another bride/groom. Overall, it was the perfect space to host our wedding. Lisa was such a pleasure to work with and had such great insights on how to bring together the event in a manner that made the best use of the space. Thank you to the Renaissance Event Hall team!”

We had given Adrian a list of must plays but left it to the team to fill in the rest and they did not disappoint!! The whole set-up was beautiful, from the DJ booth to the photo booth! We were so impressed. Guests we did not think would dance were out on the dance floor groovin' along. We have continued to receive compliments on our music choices.

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.”

Her guidance on selecting the perfect vendors was invaluable; every vendor she recommended was a dream to work with and helped create a seamless experience. On the wedding day itself, Lauren and the City & Terrace team executed everything we discussed over the past year to absolute perfection. They transformed our ideas into a breathtaking reality, creating a space and experience that felt magical. Thanks to their meticulous planning and day-of coordination, we actually got to enjoy the day—eating the food, spending time with loved ones, and soaking in every moment without a worry. If you’re looking for someone who will not only make your wedding beautiful but also make the entire process enjoyable and stress-free, Lauren and the City & Terrace team are the absolute best. We can’t recommend them enough! She is now planning my sisters wedding and I'm so excited to see what she creates :)”

“Ioana was wonderful to work with, and I’m so glad we had her to photograph our elopement. She was very kind, gave great suggestions, and was proactive in asking what I have liked and disliked about previous photography sessions. The sneak peak pictures she sent the next day were all gorgeous, as was the full album she sent the next week! Everyone commented how beautiful all of the pictures were. She is so talented!! She really captured the beauty of the day. I would love the opportunity to work with her again in the future!”
