DJ Karizma did an amazing job MCing our wedding. We really started with nothing to give him, but his experience lead us in the direction of music genres we liked and really gave us inspiration. He also had some fun bride/groom games he suggested we could do, and really knows how to read the guests we had. He was very interactive and responsive with us before and during the event. His energy and enthusiasm for our special day kept the party rolling and always had people wanting to keep dancing throughout the night. The price was very good, compared to other prices we got quoted for. A 10/10 DJ and would suggest to anybody looking for an experienced/interactive/and responsive DJ.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am obsessed with Tiffany! She photographed our destination elopement and easily was one of the highlights of our day. She was flexible, knowledgeable, and helped us plan out how we wanted our special day to go. When our initial plans were rained out, she was quick to assist with problem solving and just be down for the adventure which made the whole process stress-free. My husband and I have never been the types to be comfortable in front of the camera, but she made the session fun and the product is some truly stunning photographs. Since our elopement, Tiffany has become our go-to photographer. She has done couples, maternity, and family portraits for various loved ones and is always a pleasure to work with. She’s great at working with everyone from the oldest to the youngest of our family, the most stoic to the most rambunctious. She’s amazing at digging out those authentic smiles and making you feel at ease. She’s professional, creative, and just a genuinely kind human. I recommend her to everyone.

Our wedding plans shifted from Cozumel, Mexico, to San Juan, Puerto Rico, due to COVID-19, but Alisha handled it all seamlessly. She kept us calm and ensured everything ran perfectly on our big day.

We were really on the fence about whether or not the cost of a videographer would be worth it since we already booked a photographer. Moments for Life had packages that fit with our budget and we’re so glad we booked them. Photos are great, but the videos we got are so full of life and are truly magical. If you’re on the fence about hiring a videographer - DO IT! We also really appreciated that Moments for Life gave us the raw footage of our ceremony, reception speeches, dancing, and cake cutting.

We recently got married at Gala 417, and the entire experience was fantastic! The venue is absolutely breathtaking, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about how stunning everything was. Working with the Gala 417 team, especially Sarah and Lyndsey, made the planning process enjoyable and stress-free. They were incredibly responsive and attentive, always quick to answer questions and ensure that our wedding day vision came to life in a way that felt uniquely ours. Lyndsey, our day-of coordinator, was amazing! She handled everything flawlessly throughout the morning and early afternoon, and we truly appreciated how well-organized and professional she was. Even though there were a couple of small bumps after her departure, such as the DJ needing a reminder for speeches, and a few of our selected beer options running out earlier than expected, the staff still managed to keep everything running smoothly. To future brides, I would recommend clearly emphasizing any specific beverage preferences during your catering and blueprint meetings if you or your guests have favorites to avoid any disappointments. We were especially excited about the food after trying it at our catering meeting—it was delicious, and we even bragged to our guests about it! However, on the day of the wedding, the food served was bland and inconsistently prepared. We had requested steaks to be cooked medium, but after the fact, many of our guests shared that their filets ranged from rare to well-done, with some even mentioning gristle or fat in the cut—which shouldn’t happen with a filet. This was a bit disappointing, especially considering how much we were looking forward to the meal. Overall, Gala 417 went above and beyond to make our wedding day truly unforgettable. We would absolutely recommend this venue to future couples—between the gorgeous space and the dedication of the staff, our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more. We are so grateful to the entire Gala 417 team for making our day so special!

As both a bride and a former wedding coordinator, I can’t recommend Kaytlyn enough! From the very beginning, she was a dream to work with — professional, responsive, and so easygoing. We first worked with her for our engagement session, and the results were absolutely stunning — she captured us so naturally and beautifully that we knew instantly she was the perfect choice for our wedding. On a personal note, I also booked a boudoir session with her as a surprise for my husband on our wedding day.

On the wedding day itself, she blended seamlessly into the flow of events, capturing everything without ever feeling intrusive. Having worked with many photographers in my coordinator role, I can say her professionalism and ability to connect with her clients is truly exceptional.
