  • Photographer
  • Classic style

I started out by capturing photos of friends and family. Before I knew it AddieG.Photography bloomed into a business. Weddings became my favorite event to capture and I have captured countless weddings in the Kansas area and also in Florida. I love meeting new couples and take pride in capturing your big day in a unique and personal way.

HIGHLY recommend Addie! She was so easy to work with and talk to. She controlled the environment very well and kept things moving. She did very well communicating and reassuring. I remember turning to her multiple times to apologize for the non-cooperation during group photos and she just smiled at me and said "we're all good." You can tell she enjoys what she does, she is confident, and she can take AMAZING pictures. Thank you Addie for capturing such beautiful photos, we are so excited to see the rest!

Why buy flowers when this is an option? Renting my flowers was such a good decision and they were absolutely beautiful. SBB makes the process so easy too. The flowers were lovely, they photographed well, and when we were done we sent them right back! A great option especially if you don’t want to spend a ton of money on floral arrangements.

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 
Rating: 4.9 (78 reviews)
  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Independence, 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
Flower Moxie completely exceeded my expectations in every way! I ordered their pastels package for my wedding and was blown away by how stunning the flowers were. The blooms were fresh, vibrant, and even more beautiful than I imagined—truly some of the healthiest flowers I’ve ever seen. I was initially curious (and a little nervous) about how the process would work, since I’d never used a service like this before. But from the very beginning, Maria and the Flower Moxie team were incredibly kind, accommodating, and truly went above and beyond. Maria walked me through every step with warmth and thoughtfulness, and made everything feel so easy and stress-free. They really knocked it out of the park. The flowers added so much magic to our day. I used them for our welcome sign, cake, bud vases, and to transform a faux white-and-green arch and floral meadow by adding real, colorful blooms—and the final result was breathtaking. So many guests complimented how beautiful everything looked. I cannot recommend Flower Moxie enough. They’re not just a flower company—they’re a dream team that helps make your vision come to life!

Jenna the dj kept the party hopping all night! She literally was so great in ensuring the guests were kept in the loop the entire night. The couple loved x files and she was made aware and went out of her way to play the x files theme song as a surprise for them. Also, there was an inside joke with a cardboard cutout of Danny Devito. When they did a couples dance she even joked about how if someone didn’t have a partner they could dance with Danny. She was very personable and even helped clear plates in her free time. In addition, there was an issue where the hired officiant didn’t show up on time. I called Live Events as a back up and the owner Dennis told me he was an hour and a half away at another wedding but would come immediately. He rushed to our aid even when I told him the other officiant finally showed up. He showed up ready to help in any way he could. This company is top notch in all they do. Professional, polite, friendly, fun and ready to exceed your expectations. The only mistake you could make on your wedding day would be not hiring them.

He is responsive to all questions and requests which made the planning process a breeze. The quality of his work is truly top-notch, with beautifully curated photos that captured all the special moments of our wedding day. He is incredibly accommodating and guided us through every step of the way. He didn't hesitate when I even asked him to travel out to California for the wedding. It was awesome to have someone who is like an old friend and has seen us grow over the years capture our special day.

Being a bridesmaid is stressful sometimes, but they made it so easy and fun. I was amazed that they captured even the moments when we were just laughing in the dressing room or fixing hair. The video shows all of us like a movie cast, and I love how natural it feels. You don’t realize how fast the day goes until you see the photos after, then it all comes flooding back. My best friend looked like a princess and they showed that perfectly. The way they filmed the speeches made me cry AGAIN even though I was right there that night. The music they put with the video was perfect too, not cheesy like some wedding videos I’ve seen. They even made me look photogenic and I usually hate photos of myself lol. When I sent the album link to my mom she said it felt like she was there with us. Honestly I would hire them in a second if I ever get married. 100% recomend.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Of all the wedding vendors contracted for our daughter's wedding, Brian was by far the most professional, easiest to work with, and the best listener for the couples vision. He produced am superb product, which included a full ceremony video, and a highlights version to share with family and friends unable to attend in person. He was also unobtrusive, and practically invisible to everyone while simultaneously getting amazing video. His editing was stunning, and captured the audio and music selections that truly made you feel you were right there again! There should be a 10 star rating for people like Brain at Veiled Rose Films!

Hello there! I'm Andrea, owner of Amative Creative, and every weekend we're so blessed to be able to tell the love stories of so many amazing couples. Like many others in this industry might say, we simply adore weddings. But what makes us a little different is our entire brand is centered around telling love stories specifically curated to reflect your vision and aesthetic. "Amative" means to be prone to love, so as you can see, we want nothing more than to tell your love story! But what makes us truly unique is that we understand every love story looks different. And we personalize every aspect of how we document your wedding day!

We had a great experience with Amative Creative for our wedding! One thing that really made them stand out was that they offer so many different editing styles to choose from, so we were able to pick exactly the look we wanted. They also got our photos back to us super quickly—about a week after the wedding—which was such a nice surprise. The photos turned out beautiful and they captured all the big moments and some great candid shots. I especially love how cool the dance floor shots turned out. We received tons of compliments on the pictures! Highly recommend!

Being in the wedding film industry over sixteen years, I'm eager to help couples bring their dreams to life. I have no hesitation traveling for couples who know I'm the perfect fit for their wedding. My work resonates with who it's made for- and I keep that audience in mind.

Birch Fields was the perfect choice for our wedding videographers. From our very first interaction, they demonstrated a thorough, professional, and warm communication style that immediately put us at ease. Their artistic, cinematic, and sincere approach to capturing our special day was evident in every frame. Steven's presence behind the camera made the day feel smoother and more relaxed, and he effortlessly documented the energy, joy, and love of our celebration. We cannot recommend Birch Fields highly enough - they are incredibly talented and genuinely easy to work with from start to finish.
