Megan is the best!! I debated getting a day-of coordinator because I knew I would be thinking about the setup of everything when I should have just been enjoying the day and Megan allowed me to do just that. We had a few meetings beforehand to go over details and when the day came she kicked it into high gear and handled literally everything without a hitch. She knows how to handle people and is so detail oriented. I cannot imagine my wedding day without her. Thank you Megan!! 3

Riki was the best wedding photographer we could have ever wished for. Starting with our initial outreach, we knew she was incredible and that her energy and style were exactly the fit for us. Riki has an incredible joy that brings out the best in everyone around her, and she’s able to capture that same joy and energy in her photography beautifully. We had some less common photos as our wedding was at a racetrack, and she embraced this full on and brought a wonderful creative spirit. Riki strikes an incredible balance of keeping an eye out for the small moments that matter while demonstrating her professionalism and experience by coordinating the bigger picture. As we did not have a dedicated wedding planner, her checklists and questions leading up to the event set her up for success and ensured I was thinking of the important details to plan for the overall day, too. On the day of our wedding, she was on top of everything from the moment she arrived at the venue to the last photos of the evening. We really could not have wished for a better person to help us ensure the memories from our day stay with us forever. We cannot say enough good things about her, and our guests all agreed!

My mission is to freeze your milestones forever in time. I vow to make our experience together comfortable, full of laughter and unique to you! I truly mean it when I say that I want to be your friend. I will get to know you, encourage you and cheer you on as you navigate life.

Awarded Best of Zola
McKenzie was everything I could have asked for in a photographer. I spent a lot of time looking through photographers in the area, as having nice photos to look back on was super important to me. We don't live near where our venue was, so I was a bit nervous about not being able to meet the vendors ahead of time, but this was not a problem at all. McKenzie was very communicative and video called me for our meetings, was up front about the costs and payments, and honestly just so so sweet. I genuinely felt like she was just as excited about my wedding as I was. Her positive attitude was so reassuring and I knew right away that we made the right choice. On our wedding day, she gave great direction for posing, which was super helpful as our bridal party (bride & groom included) were not very experienced working with a professional photographer. I have a pretty big blended family, and McKenzie was so helpful organizing everybody and making sure everyone looked their best for photos (even making it work when some family members made things complicated). We had a videographer as well that McKenzie had never worked with before, but you couldn't tell that they had just met that day, as the worked so well together. When people were at risk of interrupting our photos, she kindly asked them to move, and snuck me out for sunset photos during the ceremony with ease. We had our "sneak peek" photos sent to us only a few days after the wedding which were so sweet to look at during our honeymoon. She even included a sweet card in our card box. Not only is she talented, but she is kind, helpful, understanding, and it felt like I was working with a friend (despite basically being strangers). These are photos I will have to look back on to remember these moments forever and I am so grateful I chose the right photographer. I would highly recommend McKenzie to anyone looking for a wedding photographer, or a photographer for any service she offers.

We loved working with Style Unveiled for our wedding day hair and makeup! They were so quick to respond to all of my questions during the planning process, and made me feel completely at ease. On the big day, they arrived right on time and immediately got to work making me and my bridesmaids feel gorgeous. They were so understanding of what we wanted, and helped bring our vision to life. The hair was absolutely beautiful and lasted fairly well (considering it was 90 degrees and very humid) all night long as we danced the night away. I felt like the most stunning bride, and my girls couldn't stop complimenting how lovely their styles turned out. Style Unveiled's work is just gorgeous, and their sweet team helped make our wedding day feel that much more special. For beautiful work and wonderful communication, I would highly recommend them!

We knew we wanted our wedding to be full of dancing, so our DJ was one of the first vendors we booked. We hit the absolute JACKPOT with Luxx and DJ Mike. Mike kept the party going and the only time our guests were leaving the dance floor was to grab another drink. Even our friends and family who don't dance were out on the dance floor tearing it up thanks to Mike. He did a great job mixing songs and keeping the energy high. We had so many guests tell us after the wedding it was the best music and dance floor of any wedding they'd been to. Mike was incredibly professional and easy to work with and we can't recommend him and Luxx Entertainment enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had our wedding in November 2025 using Classic Catering & Events for dinner, desserts, and our wedding cake, as well as having their sister company Once Upon a Bloom for our florist. Heather covered both areas stunningly well. For dinner we did the chopped steak, grilled chicken, green beans, salad, and Mac and cheese all in buffet style. Everything came out great, cooked to perfection. The chopped steak was especially tasty and a favorite with both me (the bride) and guests! And the fact that it came with a water, lemonade, and sweet tea stand was so nice for our guests who didn’t drink alcohol or for those who did drink, and needed to stay hydrated. For dessert we did an arrangement of small goodies including the cake shooters, and it also came out amazing. The cake shooters were my favorite of all the desserts, we even got to pick a variety of different cake flavors! And CC&E arranged everything to be picture perfect on the tables, bringing their own food stands which was a huge help to me. The cake was a simple but elegant two tier chocolate cake with white frosting. It also came out tasting great. It was affordable, which I appreciated, allowing us the ability to choose the traditional tiered cake over boring sheet cake but remain within our budget. With the floral arrangements, Heather went above and beyond. As a bride who knows very little about flowers, I did not give Heather much to go on when creating our bouquets and floral arrangements. And yet she took the pictures of me and my bridesmaids’ dresses, the wedding colors and themes, and the wedding Pinterest I had made, and was able to create incredible bouquets and arrangements, while also being aware of our budget! I was speechless seeing the bouquets and got so many compliments. The most impressive thing about this is the fact that Heather did all this work while only being able to email with me due to the fact that I live in a different state than AL and travel for work quite often. Even with an 8 hour time difference (for a month leading up to the wedding due to my work trip) her communication with me was effective and timely. Heather’s dedication and expertise is one reason why my wedding was so stress free! I highly, highly recommend Heather’s two companies Classic Catering & Events and Once Upon a Bloom to any bride in the Alabama area.

My husband nor I are from Michigan (from the Chicagoland area) and everyone kept asking us "why Michigan?" The moment they walked in, they felt the same feeling I did when I first toured the venue. It is beautiful, unique, personal and was everything and more that I could have hoped for. Our wedding as at the end of June and we were very fortunate that the rain held off and the temperature/humidity ended up being perfect. We had about 185 guests attend the wedding and I think everyone was too stunned by the venue to even care about the drizzle of rain that was happening. Not to mention, Amelia and her staff are absolutely amazing from the very beginning to the very end.

I highly recommend hosting your event at the Ivy House. I was married here in January, and from start to finish the experience was incredible. Every member of the staff was kind, helpful, and professional, especially our wedding planner, Tiffany. On our wedding day, I didn’t worry about a single thing. After a year of working closely together, I fully trusted Tiffany to execute my vision, and she delivered beyond our expectations. She expertly guided us through the entire planning process and helped bring the wedding of our dreams to life. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, and even in January the greenhouse was a comfortable 71 degrees. The bridal suite is spacious and beautiful, with plenty of mirrors, a private bathroom, and ample room for the entire bridal party. While the groom’s suite is more modest, it was still a very nice space for the time it’s used. The hospitality at the Ivy House is truly top-notch. They have excellent relationships with trusted vendors, which made navigating the many wedding decisions so much easier. The option to rent décor through their in-house company, Charm Decor, was also a huge bonus, especially for couples who prefer not to DIY. An incredible venue and team from start to finish!

  • Large venue, not ideal for small guest lists
  • No on-site guest accommodations
I loved working with Prudy and her team at Stonegate Manor! I am a wedding photographer and recommend them to all of my couples. They are amazing to work with and I can't recommend them enough.

Kimberly Hibbard Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (10 reviews)
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,400
  • Serves Lacota, MI

I specialize in weddings, elopements, seniors and family sessions- but what I really love is capturing real connection. The laughs, the quiet in between moments, the way you look at each other when no one else is paying attention. When I'm not behind the camera, you can probably find me with a coffee in hand and my Blue Heeler dog nearby (He thinks he run the business, honestly) If you are looking for someone who will keep things easy, fun and natural- you are in the right place.

Kimberly was truly the best photographer we could have asked for! She was always responsive and truly was able to bring our vision to life. She went above and beyond and we will always be grateful that she captured our engagement photos and wedding day. I would recommend her to anyone who asks!

Bailee is so fun to work with! She did my engagement and wedding photos. She got them back to us so quickly after each session and took such beautiful pictures. She was one of my favorite vendors to work with for my wedding. My husband and I are a little camera shy but she made us feel so comfortable. And we really liked her editing style. We get so many compliments on our photos. Highly recommend!

I recently had the pleasure of getting new-to-me services at Alder: my wedding hair (Kristen) and makeup (Anne). Two of my bridesmaids and also my mom (she was with Kayleigh) had their hair and/or makeup here. For my makeup trial, I had no clear idea what I wanted. The trial was fine, but afterwards I realized I didn’t love it and Anne was very gracious about letting me do another trial, and made me feel 0 guilt about it, and as the person who is forever convinced that I’m a burden, I am so, so grateful for that. Second trial went great and I loved the look. Felt very much like myself but better! For hair, I had a particular look in mind, and the trial went amazing and was everything I wanted! My actual wedding day was on a weekday and my party was small, so our hair and makeup were done at Alder (they will go on site if you have a minimum number of people) which was a relief to me because my venue’s getting ready area was not well lit, and Alder’s decor is always on point. We had some hiccups about appointment time (I forgot to factor in the fact that my venue was an hour away from the studio and my bridesmaids scheduled independently) but Kristen, Anne, and the Alder team were accommodating and again, didn’t make me feel like a burden even though I 100% should have scheduled all the appointments at the same time to avoid that problem in the first place. I’m not perfect! They even let us bring in breakfast while getting ready and it was just an all around good time. I felt like a princess, and my bridesmaids and mom looked so gorgeous!.

She took the time to understand our vision and helped us identify exactly what we needed for our floral arrangements. On top of that, she provided clear, helpful instructions on how to care for the flowers the day of, which made everything go smoothly.
