  • Florist

Hey There ~ it's us, Amy & Harley! We’re a mother-daughter team. Designing beautiful weddings & events near our home in the St. Louis Metro East area and love to travel anywhere our flowers and designs take us for your event. We frequent the areas of Nashville, Chicago, Denver & beyond. We love celebrations, any kind, big and small, and lots of them. We also believe that we can all find something to celebrate in every day. We take pride in tailoring our designs to create a celebration parallel to your vision.

From our very first consultation, we knew we were in the best hands. What truly set our florist apart wasn't just their incredible talent. It was their undivided attention to us and relationship we built with them throughout the entire planning process. They took the time to truly understand our vision and brought it to life in ways that left us completely speechless on our wedding day. Every arrangement was absolutely stunning, and we were so impressed by how beautifully everything came together, all while staying within our budget. Communication was seamless from start to finish; they were always responsive, thoughtful, and reassuring during what can be such a stressful time. If you're looking for a florist and/or a wedding planner who will treat your wedding like it's their own and pour their heart into every single detail, look no further. We cannot recommend them highly enough

Dan Moore from DJ Shark Attack was absolutely incredible. From the moment we met him, he exceeded all of our expectations. Not only was he an amazing DJ who kept everyone on the dance floor all night, but he was also one of the most genuine and thoughtful people we’ve ever met. We had a special request for a unique entrance into our reception, and Dan completely nailed it. He went above and beyond to make it exactly how we imagined, and it turned out even better than we hoped. On top of that, we asked if he could include last names during the wedding party introductions—something he doesn’t normally do—and he took the time to learn and pronounce every single name correctly. That level of care and attention meant so much to us. He also made a real effort to connect with all of our guests and made sure everyone was well taken care of throughout the night. While my husband and I were off taking sunset photos, Dan got us plates of food and even kept them warm—something we hadn’t thought about, but he did without hesitation. Dan wasn’t just our DJ—he was a huge part of what made our day so special. If you’re looking for someone who truly listens, cares about your day and delivers it on every detail, DJ Shark Attack is the way to go. We couldn’t recommend them more!!!

There is no better DJ than DJ Martin. He had us fill out a questionnaire that helped guide us through planning our entire wedding day and ultimately the absolute BEST PARTY ever! I have never seen so many people on a dance floor as I did at our wedding reception. Instead of a head table, we put the DJ façade on the stage where the head tables would have been so that he was the center of attention. Ultimately, it was the best decision. He was able to be close to the dance floor, feel the crowd, and have a good time. He also listened to us on our music choices and guided us on things we were unsure of. We highly recommend Ultimate Beats Entertainment.

Our wedding at the Forest Park Golf Club was absolutely outstanding! Lexi was stellar helping us when we first visited, learning about the different package options, and finding out that we could make the dream of having our wedding reception in Forest Park come true! Maddie did more than we could ever have hoped for as our coordinator, helping us with decorating ideas, arranging all of the details, and getting everything set up perfectly on the day of the reception. We made some additions the week of the wedding that the club accommodated seamlessly. They made everything as easy as it could have been. Our photographer was in an accident on the wedding day (oh no!) which pushed back the timing of the wedding. We arrived later than planned at the reception. Maddie was waiting outside with golf carts so we could immediately dash away for pictures at the Grand Basin- after she made a quick dash into the club to bring out some emergency finger nail tools! And the pictures around the Grand Basin: sunset reflecting on the water behind us… so beautiful! And the food! The drinks! The service! Everything was absolutely outstanding. Me and my bride never got our own drinks- the servers were frequently asking us for anything we would like. It truly exceeded the dreams we had of what our Forest Park wedding reception could be!

I am a professional DJ from Festus, Missouri. I am also blessed to be a husband and a father to two amazing kids!​ At the beginning of my career, I worked full-time in radio as an on-air talent. After a few years in the radio industry, I was given the opportunity to expand my abilities with companies such as ESPN, Fox Sports Midwest, & one of the top DJ Companies in the STL area! Eventually, after years of hard work, I decided to offer STL couples everything they had been dreaming of for their big day! So, in 2021 I launched my own DJ business... Matt Baer Media!

Awarded Best of Zola
Matt provided his services for my husband and I this past weekend for our wedding, and we have nothing but good things to say! When I started wedding planning, the two most important vendors to me was our DJ and photographer. After lots of research and talks with other DJs, I found Matt and I’m so glad I did. He listened to what we wanted and was super professional during the whole process. During our reception, I told him multiple times that I needed him to play something I didn’t know so I could get a break. We highly recommend Matt Baer Media for DJ services and even the Photo Booth. It was a huge hit at our wedding.

Ally was without a doubt the most important piece to our wedding!! She was so important during the planning process and brought up so many good tips and tricks I would never have thought about. She gave us a perfect timeline to work from and allowed us to go about our day blissfully happy while keeping us on track with everything we had planned. We had a lot of moving parts on our day including lots of DIY decor, desserts, flowers as well as setting up a champagne tower and coordinating our guests here and there for our first dance on an outside dock - she made it all happen! She also coordinated everything with the vendors and took a huge load of the work off of me. I’m sure she put out a lot of fires we never even knew existed. She seamlessly set up the reception of my dreams and broke it all down following the reception. She quite honestly had our backs throughout the whole process and was so down to earth and extremely nice/fun/easy to work with! On top of it all, she took beautiful pictures and videos of the reception all set up as well as our first dances with our parents! None of our guests took videos of our dances and it would have been heartbreaking not to have them! She seriously thought of it all - do NOT hesitate to hire Jovial! We couldn’t have done it without her!!

If you’re looking for an engaging, professional team to bring your wedding vision to life, look no further! I had the pleasure of working with Trinity Griffin Events (TGE) for day-of coordination at my wedding last October, and the experience was outstanding. My primary coordinator was Nikki, with Trinity serving as my secondary coordinator—both were incredible. Our package included support starting 90 days before the wedding, helping my husband and me stay organized and on track as the big day approached. That guidance made a huge difference in easing stress throughout the planning process. TGE also handled the setup and breakdown of our décor, which allowed me, my family, and friends to stay fully present and enjoy the celebration without worrying about logistics. From our very first meeting through post-wedding follow-up, their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine warmth truly stood out.

I have planned, coordinated, and designed over 250 weddings since our beginning and we are already booking fast for next year! Here at AEE, we are dedicated to giving quality service, building relationships with clients, and providing the best experience at every event. We are always up for any task you hand us and go above and beyond, no questions asked. We love the people that trust us with these important moments in life!

I am so serious when I say I couldn’t have gotten married without Allyssa. It is incredible to work with someone who is so phenomenal at their job. She has so much experience to bring to the table and comes across as effortless on her part. From day one, her organization kept me on track despite my insanely busy schedule. Most people feel that wedding planning is stressful and I actually think I had FUN planning the wedding of my dreams. She has such amazing relationships in the industry, so knew all of my vendors were trustworthy and going to make my day so special (and they did!!!). Her calm demeanor in every situation makes for the most hands free and stress free wedding day. I was so stress free and having the time of my life that I wasn’t even bothered when I got espresso martini spilled all over the front of my dress! Allyssa was immediately at my side with (a lot of) Shout wipes to take care of business and get my back to my party! She took my vision and made it reality. Allyssa genuinely made my wedding day the absolute best day of my life!

I cannot say enough good things about our DJ (Jon)! My now husband and I had some concerns regarding some of our family members and we discussed them with Jon prior to the event. Jon respected our wishes and was so professional about everything. He handled things extremely well. We had an issue with the pastor who married us. We had asked the pastor a week or two prior to the wedding if he would at least come by the reception hall to say the blessing at the wedding (He said yes at the time.), and he no-showed. Jon had announced that the pastor would come up and say the blessing, and of course there was radio silence because we quickly realized the pastor wasn’t there. Once we told Jon that he didn’t show up, Jon said a quick blessing and our meal began. We started the dances, and we could not keep people off of the dance floor. Jon kept pace with the crowd so well and everyone had such a blast! What my husband and I didn’t realize at the time was that my husband’s Uncle Joe had a surprise song picked out for us as well as green Irish polo shirts made for all of us (inside joke) and we essentially had a bit of a flash mob at our wedding. Kudos to Jon for going along with his idea! That was so funny and it made our wedding so special. Overall, it was a wonderful evening and I truly hope every couple is blessed with a DJ like Jon. I don’t think he could have done anything better honestly. You will not find a better DJ in the St. Louis / Metro East area! Thanks Jon!

New to St. Louis and planning a wedding was a stressful combination. We did not know what vendors to book for our wedding day, or have any family or friends in the area with recommendations, so we went with a company called George Street Photo and Video. Thank God we did, because they put us in touch with Brooke who went above and beyond my wildest dreams!!!! From day one, Brooke was a joy to work with. Neither my husband or I had been in front of a camera before for any type of photoshoot, and we felt awkward and uncomfortable ... for about 2 seconds. Brooke made us laugh, talked us through poses and how to make them look natural, and took a lot of time and care to get to know us. Needless to say, we were thrilled with her work and went into the wedding day feeling calm and confident that she would capture our day perfectly. Between the engagement shoot and the wedding, Brooke was easy to get a hold of via text and email. She is responsive and full of excellent ideas. With 100 weddings under her belt, she has a wealth of knowledge. TRUST HER to make decisions, and she will blow your mind with the final proofs. She gets to know you intimately, finding out what matters most to you (like family backstories and tradition) and what your vision is. Best yet, she is able to execute it with precision amidst the chaos of wedding day. Her kindness, passion for photography and storytelling through this medium, and organization skills are unmatched. She is the kindest soul, and someone I hope to stay in touch with to photograph life's greatest moments in the years to come. Brooke, thank you for everything. You are one of a kind, and we are blessed to have met you!!!

I have a dirty little secret… I never wanted to be a wedding planner. It was never something that was on my radar. The series of events that led me to this industry is, to be honest, not very exciting, inspiring, or important, really, so I’ll skip that part. (Feel free to ask me later.) What is important is that my heart is in help and service. Born and raised in St. Louis, I’ve gained a lot of knowledge about local wedding vendors, traditions, and styles. But after working 12+ years in the industry, I’m down for anything and love working with a couple that has a unique style and vision for their day.

Victoria is an absolute pleasure to work with. I appreciate her calm presence and attention to detail, and the ways she takes care of both the clients and the vendors.

I know it's going to be a gorgeous, flawless, easy day when Victoria is coordinating.

Chelsey has taken my graduation photos, engagement photos and wedding photos and all of them have been absolutely amazing! I absolutely love how natural her photos are, yet so incredibly stunning. Not only is she so incredibly talented, she is so sweet, kind, communicative and ensures that she has an understanding of what you want. She is also extremely knowledgeable about the best spots for shoots, shots that are now some of my core memories and will always ask for input on any other shots you could possibly want. If you need a reliable photographer, Chelsey is your gal!

Chloe was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. Her communication was clear, fun and easy-going, making the entire process really enjoyable. The quality of her work is simply gorgeous - her compositions and use of color are stunning, and she provided great pose suggestions that resulted in beautiful, natural-looking photos. Chloe captured all the memories we wanted from our engagement shoot and wedding day, as well as so many special moments we didn't even have time to see on our big day.

We booked with Rachel about a month before our big day, and even though we didn’t work together for very long, she made SUCH a difference for our whole experience! She’s so kind, super communicative and supportive with whatever we need, and friends/family who attended our wedding described her as being “everywhere where you might need her.” I’d recommend Rachel and Lebeaux Weddings in a heartbeat for anyone who needs day-of services!

Hi, I'm Hamza, professionally known as DJ Apocalypse — a full-time wedding and event DJ with over 17 years of experience. I specialize in high-energy, personalized receptions with seamless live mixes tailored to your style, keeping every guest on the dance floor. Experienced across weddings, private parties, corporate events, yacht parties, and more; official DJ for Zales, TJ Maxx, Heidel House, Zouk, Hamilton College, and others. I provide premium, reliable equipment, full backup gear, liability insurance, and professional MC services for a stress-free celebration. Let's create an unforgettable soundtrack for your big day!

Hamza was our dj for our interracial marriage. My side of the family is Hispanic while my husband's side is black. I read some of his reviews before we booked him. My husband and I were worried that our family cultures would clash at the reception so we discussed the situation with him in advance and informed him to play a certain type of music and ignore any requests. He did exactly what we told him to and although we (our immidiate family) had a lot of fun, many of my side of the family didn't like modern music and bugged him and our parents about it. There were 350 guests at the wedding. Hamza told us about the situation and suggested that we should just let him take control. Now, for context, we didn't inform him that the guests wanted Mariachi or Cumbia prior to the event. The event hall didn't had any internet. This guy played the absolute best set playing some of the best hits that my relatives loved. We hired him for 8 hours of reception. But he stayed till 3am giving all of us the best times of our lives. When our guests left and when we told him to pack, he told me and husband that you should have a couple of songs that you both can slow dance to which just made my night. He saved us from a lot of embarrassment and made our wedding extra special. He was on time and his setup was great.
