I had the BEST experience with Black Tie Entertainment working with Matt and Chris. Right away, Matt was so responsive in wanting to meet and hear about what we were looking for in DJ services. He was extremely thorough, organized, and detail oriented every time we met, and continued to be responsive throughout our entire planning experience. If I had any questions, he emailed back right away offering to jump on a call to help. Additionally, he went out of his way to purchase a fog machine and operate it himself for our wedding! It's so clear that he genuinely cares about his clients and will go above and beyond! When Matt introduced me to Chris, I knew right away he was going to be the best. He is so friendly and relaxed, yet thorough and extremely professional. We met several times in detail to confirm the timeline and songs, and he was so helpful to bounce ideas off of. He truly made that part of the planning process so much fun and made me so excited as I knew we were in good hands. He absolutely crushed it on our wedding day - from the songs and transitions to instructing the guests, he captivated the whole crowd with his energy - everyone was on the dance floor the ENTIRE time!! Lastly, their online planning tool was such a life saver for someone who is detail oriented. It was so nice to see every song we had lined up with our timeline from the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and reception - it was so easy to use and organized - truly took such a weight off! Matt and Chris took the best care of us, and I truly can't thank and recommend them enough!!

He even added in new Taylor Swift songs into the night when the album only came out the day before. And he surprised us with a remix of a song with Taylor Swift and my husbands band.

On our wedding day, she and Anthony went above and beyond. They were professional, organized, and so fun to work with. They captured every moment beautifully, all while making us feel relaxed and present. We couldn’t be happier with the photos and the memories they preserved for us. Highly recommend!

Rita and her team did a great job with the hair and makeup for my wedding in November 2024. She was very responsive during the booking process, everything was very clear and seamless. The trial went well and she made sure that I liked how everything looked. Everything on the day of the wedding looked as expected based on the trial. I hardly ever wear makeup and asked for a more natural look and it turned out perfect! I also have fine hair and was worried about having volume, but Rita was able to make my hair look thicker than it is. Both the hair and makeup lasted all night and still looked good after being done around 12pm. We had 6 people getting services and everything was done on time by Rita and her assistant, she provided a schedule so that I was able to let people know when they could arrive. I would recommend Rita to anyone looking for wedding hair and makeup services, she was a pleasure to work with. Thank you!

Cassidy put together the florals for our wedding this weekend. We ordered arbor flowers that Cassidy recycled to our cake and sweetheart table. Unfortunately the wind during the first half of our reception was a little WILD so my current photos of that aren’t able to do it justice until my photos come in. However, I have some photos of the flowers before I sent them off for preservation as well. We also used Cassidy for rentals of pillar candles and bud vases. She assembled those and had welcome table greens for us, my bouquet, and my husband’s boutonniere. I was constantly adding things to the list like some spray flowers for my photographers for my flat lays. But she managed it. Cassidy attended our walk through to make sure that she saw the property and knew where our flowers would be doing. She provided some inspiration photos based on what I wanted and she delivered on that for sure! I think the centerpieces in particular were EXACTLY what I was looking for. She really nailed those and they turned out beautifully. When we didn’t know what we wanted or struggled to get a good vision going, she made some suggestions and went through the pros and cons with me of options. It was great to get her input on things and also trust her perspective as it relates to florals. Thank you so much for a great day!

So, we grew our team and that’s when things really started to come to life.

We had the absolute best experience working with the Paperboys team for our wedding photography and videography! We knew since our engagement photoshoot session with John that he would be a dream to work with on our big day. He instantly grasped our vibe and leaned into our ideas, which resulted in our stunning engagement photos at the Great Falls location he took us to! His energy made every moment enjoyable, and we felt completely at ease in front of the camera.   On our wedding day, John teamed up with our lead videographer, Logan, and together they were the perfect duo! Their complementary styles added a sense of lighthearted fun and joy to the otherwise chaotic bustle of the day. You could really tell they are professionals at what they do; they effortlessly captured our vision with just a few short words we gave them to describe the mood we wanted to feel when looking back at our wedding photos and videos. When we received our sneak peek photos and teaser video shortly after the wedding, we were truly at a loss for words. Every shot reflected the emotions we experienced that day, and we are so excited to see what else they have in store for us! Thank you, Paperboys, for preserving our special day in such a beautiful and cinematic way. We will cherish these memories forever!!

At Crumbs & Crumbles we believe that anything from a bakery should remind you of mornings in family kitchens, of holidays shared around the table, of that one thing that tasted better than anything you could imagine. ​ We want you to experience a sense of nostalgia mixed with adventure when you try our food. We want to recreate memories for you and encourage new ones. Baked goods bring people together! And we would love to be a part of those moments with you.

Crumbs & Crumbles was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding cake and desserts. Shanna, the owner, was articulate, an active listener, and extremely empathetic throughout the entire process. She took the time to understand our vision and preferences, offering excellent, detailed, meticulous and innovative ideas to create a truly stunning display. The cake was beautifully presented and received rave reviews from our guests. Shanna was always available to answer questions and make any changes according to our needs. She listened intently and crafted a beautiful, personalized product that exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend Crumbs & Crumbles for any couple looking for an exceptional wedding dessert experience.

Enchanted Garden was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From our very first interaction, their communication was direct, prompt, and personal - we always felt like a priority. The quality of their work was truly professional, organized, and timely. For example, Abby had a plate of food waiting for us after our first dance, and they got everything cleaned up and delivered back to the house right after the wedding ended. The only hiccup was our day-of coordinator almost not making it to the rehearsal the night before, but they got it figured out in time. Overall, Enchanted Garden went above and beyond to make our special day perfect, and we couldn't recommend them more highly.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience with Lana! From the moment we started, she made me feel completely at ease and truly listened to what I wanted. The result? I felt absolutely marvelous—stunning, confident, and more beautiful than I could have imagined. The makeup was flawless. She brought the exact vision we discussed to life, using colors that made my eyes pop in the most radiant way. The shadow choices were bright, bold, and so flattering—I honestly didn’t recognize myself in the best possible way when I looked in the mirror. It was like seeing the most glamorous version of me! And my hair? Absolute perfection. She followed my instructions to the letter, but also added her own professional touch to elevate the entire look. It held beautifully through the event and looked exactly how I dreamed it would. She is incredibly talented, detail-oriented, and such a calming presence to have around before an important occasion. I am so grateful and cannot wait to book her again for my next event!

Dajana has done my makeup for my wedding, my maternity photo shoot and now my sisters wedding and she’s nailed it every time! I have never given her crazy direction either “I’m really oily. I don’t like smoky eye or dark under eyes. Other than that…live your best life!” And, I tell you what? SHE DOES EVERYTIME! She make me look so beautiful without feeling heavy or greasy. It’s always just perfect! She is amazing! I’ve had other people do my makeup and I never like it or it immediately melts off! Not Dajana’s! 10000/10 recommend!!! She’s so good and what she does and she’s so sweet! It’s like getting to catch up with an old friend when I see her!

This review is long overdue. Geneva was our photographer for our engagement and wedding photos in 2024. We had the absolute pleasure of working with Geneva for both our engagement and wedding photography, and we truly couldn’t be happier. From the very beginning, she made us feel comfortable and confident, and her warm, presence helped ease any nerves we had in front of the camera. Geneva has an incredible eye for detail and captured so many moments — big and small — that we will treasure forever. The quality of her work is stunning, and the turnaround time was quick without sacrificing care or creativity. She was professional, communicative, and kind throughout the entire process, and we’re so thankful we chose her to document such an important time in our lives. If you're a 2025 or 2026 bride looking around for a wedding photographer book with Geneva, highly recommend!
