These photographs are your story, and I'm here to make sure it's told authentically and beautifully.

Awarded Best of Zola
We have done multiple sessions with Kait now. We definitely were not unimpressed. From the amazing work to amazing soul. Kait’s work is from the heart, and true. Not some scandal for money. Me not being a very open person, when it comes to anything, kait opened me up and showed me all was okay. From not feeling comfortable to doing a boudoir shoot. Kait and her work is definitely the way to go.

Emma Creek Barn was extremely, extremely on it! This gorgeous venue was the perfect venue for nearly 200 ppl attending my wedding not to mention the family! This couple-run business was on top of things with preparation, day-of series of events, and they were very reasonable with extra costs! The Hastings are generous and kind people to work with and they were very responsive to texts and calls leading up to the wedding, which was such a relief. Their payment plan is done by paper contract only, which maybe the only thing I would've changed, but honestly, it helped both parties (my parents and the managers) clearly see what we were requesting from this venue! We did our own sound and were lucky to have incredible help from our friends, and they were so chill and flexible with all of that! Josh and Natasha were so good about lighting, helping with setup, and they even let us bring out a baby grand (we did all the moving)! They offer drape-hanging from the rafters, which is an added fee, but the barn is spacious enough and has that perfect rustic feel that we didn't feel the need for the extra accessories! The inside of the barn is a little tight fitting for 200 guests, so I would recommend doing seating in and outdoors, but its perfect for any number under that! The grass and the stage were the perfect setup in our early-August wedding! They had fans for the inside or wherever we wanted them. My favorite part was having a big cabin less than two miles away from the venue where my bridesmaids and I could spend the night before and have space to get ready. Just what I needed as a stressed out bride. It's a two minute country drive from the venue, and that just what i needed The spacious rooms of this beautiful wood cabin makes for a perfect spot for any pre-celebrations as well as for your wedding night! Another highlight that I didn't expect was all of the photo spots! That made the memories so special!!! Overall, if I could give them a 10 out of 5, I would! Have your wedding at Emma Creek Barn!

Jackie Marko Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $6,380
  • Serves Great Bend, KS

Jackie Marko Photography is a Kansas City-based Catholic wedding photographer specializing in editorial and documentary-style imagery that honors the sacredness of the sacrament. With a reverent and artful approach, Jackie thoughtfully captures nuptial Masses, meaningful moments, and the beauty of Catholic traditions. While based in Kansas City, Jackie regularly travels to photograph Catholic weddings in St. Louis, Chicago, Boston, Seattle, New York, Santa Fe, and beyond. Formerly known as Timshel Studios, Jackie serves couples who value faith, beauty, and intentional storytelling.

Truly a 10000/10 experience with Jackie from start to finish, we cannot recommend her highly enough. From our first call with her, the conversation flowed naturally. She took the time to genuinely get to know us as a couple, asking thoughtful questions about what was most important to us, our vision for our wedding day, and the inspiration behind all the moments we wanted her to capture. Our engagement shoot several months prior helped us get comfortable in front of the camera (something neither of us were used to). By the time our wedding day came, knowing what to expect made the whole experience more relaxed and fun. She was so attentive and intentional about understanding our priorities and wants. We sent her a Pinterest board with all our inspo (there was a LOT lol) and she delivered. Jackie and her admin team are very responsive and did a phenomenal job helping us prepare logistics as our wedding date got closer. We had a Catholic wedding and there were many meaningful moments throughout our Nuptial Mass we wanted to capture. She approached everything with care and respect, and we got all the pictures we wanted (and then some). Throughout the entire day she was incredibly flexible and adaptable. When things didn't go according to plan (our fault, not hers), she was quick on her feet and handled every moment with grace and patience. We got the wedding guest book and definitely recommend you do, too. It's really high quality and a cool way to commemorate your love. We had our guests sign it at our reception and now it's displayed in our living room. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who is so darn talented, professional, patient, warm, and truly invested in capturing your day beautifully, book her!!! You will be so glad you did and it's 100% worth the investment. We're eternally thankful and blessed that she got to capture our wedding day.

From the moment we started working with Something Borrowed Blooms, their communication was effective, speedy, and extremely helpful. The quality of their work was high-end, absolutely beautiful, and extremely effective in elevating the look and feel of our wedding. When they didn't have enough of the simple centerpieces we had originally requested, they upgraded us to even nicer centerpieces at no additional cost. They were incredibly flexible and made sure we had everything we needed, even accommodating my preference for email communication when I wasn't always the best at taking phone calls.

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 
Rating: 4.8 (100 reviews)
  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Great Bend, KS

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a tropical themed wedding and used Flower Moxie for tropical flowers and greenery: bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, ceremony arch flowers. I wish there were more tropical related videos on their DIY Academy, but I did love working with my assigned florist and the help desk was quick in their response. For those who are getting married at the same location that the flowers are being delivered (my parents' home), I wish we would have done all of the floral arrangements the day before instead of 2 days before. And our spray roses came a day later and were a little sad looking. But overall, we were very happy with the service and highly recommend to others!

The photographer, Jonathan, and his assistant, were absolutely amazing. They arrived early, were flexible and really accommodating to our vision. They also really hustled! They took advantage of every spare moment they had to get additional photos, and kept us on schedule super tightly. They even carried around things like bottles of water for me (the bride) as we took lots of photos in the hot upper floor of the venue. Many guests also mentioned how beautifully the photos turned out. However, we did have an issue in which, due to an injury to the editor's hand, we did not receive our photos in the agreed-upon timeframe. Had we been informed of this delay ahead of time, we would not have had any issue just waiting a bit longer. The main concern was that we weren't alerted of this delay until after the initial deadline had passed. We did request a discount due to this, which they accommodated. And the photos did still turn out amazing!

Use The Faux Bouquets! I know there are a lot of options out there for faux florals, but this company really stands out. Absolutely gorgeous selections. We chose one of the more basic options because of our color scheme but there were so many more stunning, fun and colorful options out there as well! We used them for the bouquets and boutonnieres and it made life so easy. No need to worry about the flowers staying alive or getting water stains on your dresses. We had everything in bins ready to go before wedding day. Great pricing. The bouquets are so full and you can see the thought that goes into choosing the colors, type, and placement of each flower. The company communication is quick, kind, informative, and they are just all around amazing!

I was so grateful to have found Jen while going through our flower-picking-process. We got a quote for real flowers to start and it was way out of our budget. When we started looking for 'fake' flowers, I knew I wanted them to look as real as possible. I must have looked at 10 different vendors across CT and MA, and as soon as I saw Wood & Word Blooms website I was sold! Her bouquets are one of a kind, each and every piece was perfect for our wedding. She was so supportive and helpful in the color picking process, I changed my mind a few times but she never batted an eye. She got us to the finish line and we couldn't be happier.

Hey, hey my name is Ali. NY-based, but working nation-wide, I'm a wedding photographer who captures experiences, genuine love, authentic characters, and immortalizes precious memories. I focus on visualizing how it felt to live your wedding day, while also crafting editorializations simply for the sake of intentional, living art. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

Hiring Ali was the best decision we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she felt like a helpful friend who was there to guide us through the planning and execution of our big day(s). She was a calm and supportive presence during our wedding weekend who made herself known when we needed her, but otherwise felt like a guest with a nice camera. Of course the photos look exceptional, but what stands out to us is her artistic eye and her excitement about her craft. She went absolutely above and beyond for us in so many ways and my family and I are forever grateful!

We’re Debra & Jeremy, a husband-and-wife wedding photography duo capturing love stories with heart, intention, and a whole lot of soul. Our approach blends documentary moments with gentle guidance, so your photos feel natural, emotional, and unmistakably you. From quiet, intimate glances to joyful, unscripted laughter, we focus on the moments you’ll feel just as much years from now. If you value connection, authenticity, and images that tell a story—not just pose for one—we might be the perfect fit.

The second we found Debra during our search for a photographer, we knew she was the one for us. The entire wedding planning period, we never had to worry about anything involving photos. If we had any questions or concerns, she replied fast and was so helpful. Our engagement shoot was an amazing and relaxing experience with beautiful photos. On the wedding day, it was very stressful and did not go as planned but that didn’t stop Debra from capturing stunning photos that we will cherish forever. She was very very understanding and comforting when I was struggling through the day and her husband was so go with the flow during the chaotic day as well. I highly recommend her for your wedding!

  • Serves Great Bend, KS

FêteFone® is a modern twist on the traditional guest book—where guests talk instead of write. Using a stylish vintage phone, your loved ones can leave heartfelt, funny, and unforgettable voice messages that capture the true spirit of your celebration. Your big day goes by in a flash, but with FêteFone, you’ll have the voices, laughter, and love preserved forever. Imagine hearing your grandmother’s kind words, your best friend's inside jokes, or the excitement in your guests’ voices—all at the lift of a receiver. FêteFone helps you capture the magic of your celebration—the joy, the tears, the laughter—in a way you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

We were initially drawn to FêteFone because it was such a fun and different idea—but I had no idea just how meaningful it would become. Hearing our grandparents’ voices, our best friends cracking up, and even the sweet slurred messages from our dance floor crew—it all made us laugh and cry in the best way. The setup was truly plug-and-play. We now keep our vintage mint-green FêteFone displayed on a shelf at home, and every so often we pick up the receiver just to relive that joy. It’s not just a guest book—it’s a time capsule of love. I can’t recommend it enough.

Photography has been my creative outlet in a professional way for a number of years now. I love to be able to tell a story from peoples lives, and their special days. I’ve always been someone who loves to travel, and who loves to meet new people, no matter how awkward, how quiet, loud, or shy you are - I’d love to meet you! Coffee is a great way to spend time with me outside of your session. Every good conversation has most likely had coffee in the middle of it somewhere. I’m also huge baseball fan- it has been a part of my life for a very long time.

Ty was the best photographer for our wedding! The price was super affordable for our budget and the service we got was more than what we paid for. He brought an amazing vibe with him and made us taking our photos feel like a special experience rather than something that needs to get done! I could not recommend Edward Dane Photography enough.
