“We recently celebrated our wedding at Bella Cosa on September 15, 2024, and it was truly a dream come true! The vintage Italian estate aesthetic is simply stunning, and the breathtaking views made for a magical backdrop for our special day. After viewing only one other venue, we knew right away that Bella Cosa was the one. Leading up to our wedding, the planning process was seamless, and the staff was incredibly responsive to all our questions. They made everything so easy and stress-free. Our guests can't stop raving about how beautiful the venue was, and we couldn't agree more! The estate also offered lovely accommodations for us and some of our guests. The new honeymoon suite was absolutely perfect for my husband and I —such a romantic retreat! All the vendors worked together flawlessly, creating the wedding of our dreams. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Bella Cosa, for making our day unforgettable! We highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to host their wedding in a truly magical setting.”

On the big day, they brought an incredible energy to our reception with a diverse setlist that kept our guests dancing all night long.

“Dorcas was great from the very beginning. She made everything so easy and helped put the whole package together with the catering, bartender, photographer, DJ, and décor. Everyone did an amazing job. The food was delicious, the bartender was fun, the DJ played exactly what we wanted, and Susan made everything look beautiful. It was all set up just the way I pictured it. I felt like I was probably a little difficult because I knew exactly what I wanted and was very straightforward, but Dorcas never made me feel that way. She was always kind and reassuring. The pricing was very reasonable for everything that was included, and I honestly didn't have to lift a finger on our wedding day. Everything went smoothly, and we had such a great time. I would definitely recommend them!”

From start to finish I love the aspect of planning every detail and bringing a vison to life. My passion for this industry has grown throughout the years.

“My wife, Summer, was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in 2024. This year, I decided to apply to Wish Upon a Wedding in hopes of giving Summer the day she always hoped for. Wish Upon a Wedding is a nonprofit organization that gifts weddings and vow renewals to couples facing terminal or life-changing illnesses. When they came into our lives, Summer and I were in a season where joy felt complicated and hope looked very different than we imagined. Through Wish Upon a Wedding, we were paired with our wedding planner, Married by Mariella. Mariella donated her time, talent, and heart completely free of charge. What’s important to say is that Mariella didn’t just coordinate our vow renewal. She planned it from the ground up, picking every single vendor and executing the day completely. She took Summer’s vision and brought it to life with care, intention, and deep respect for what this moment meant to us. Every detail reflected the image Summer and I had hoped for, and Mariella carried that responsibility with such grace. She led with compassion and patience, making the process feel calm and supported rather than overwhelming. There was never pressure, never rushing, and never an expectation for us to pretend things were easy. Because of Wish Upon a Wedding and Mariella’s selfless generosity, Summer and I were able to stand together, renew our vows, and experience joy without guilt in the middle of a very heavy season. Mariella and Rachael made this the best day of our lives. We will always be grateful, not just for a beautiful day, but for a memory we will carry for the rest of our lives. We could never thank her enough!”

We’ll make it look really, really good.

I had multiple calls and meetings with Sarah in the months leading up to the wedding to make sure our day looked perfect. On my wedding day, Sarah and her husband were there literally all day setting everything up the way that I had envisioned. There were a couple small hiccups with vendors that I didn't even hear about! They handled anything and everything without having to bring me into it which I appreciated so much! My wedding day was everything I could have ever dreamed of and I owe so much of that to Sarah and Josh. I would recommend them to any of my friends or family in the future!”

My name is Mary and I own and operate Mary Marsh Media with the help of my amazing partner Wiresh. I grew up in a small town outside of Virginia Beach and moved to Central Florida in 2013. I have been shooting for the past 15 years and am so grateful to have had the support of my family, friends and clients. I am primarily a wedding photographer but I have a passion for capturing beauty in every form and I just LOVE love. Being chosen to capture the most precious moments is the biggest honor of my life and I know that I'm lucky to be one of the few people who absolutely loves what I do for a living.

“Mary did an absolutely AMAZING job on our engagement photos! It was our first time taking professional pictures and she made us feel so comfortable and natural. We were giggling and having the best time the whole session. I highly recommend Mary. You will not regret booking her!”

Hi, I’m Julia! I photograph weddings throughout Florida (and beyond) with a focus on genuine moments, real connection, and days that feel natural rather than staged. My approach is calm and intentional, helping couples feel comfortable and supported from the very first conversation through gallery delivery. I believe your wedding photos should reflect how your day felt — the quiet in-between moments, the people who matter most, and the story you’ll want to revisit years from now.

“From our first conversation on Zoom to our send off on our wedding day Julia was an absolute pleasure to work with. We had a specific vision for our wedding and she immediately synced with our vibe and vision. Her personality, enthusiasm and warmth show that she is much more than an amazing photographer but an excellent human being. She fit in seamlessly with our crowd and captured the memories that we dreamed of easily. I HIGHLY recommend hiring Julia for your event, you won't regret it!”

“I can’t recommend Graingertainment enough!! Gary kept the party alive all night. I gave him a set of songs I liked for each part of the night and he mixed them beautifully and added his own spin. The owner, Chris, let us interview a few djs to make sure we found the right fit, which helped my indecisive brain tremendously. After talking to a few, I knew I couldn’t go wrong but Gary was a mix of everything we were looking for, I was so worried when I had to go cut the cake my dance floor would die, but I came back to it even more lively than when I left. This was among the many moments I knew I made the right choice. I honestly think Adams Estate should make them a required vendor!!!”

Hello, my name is Nestor Correa, and I’m a photographer devoted to capturing love stories as they truly unfold. Photography has been part of my life for as long as I can remember—it’s how I see the world and how I preserve moments that matter. Before choosing a photographer, I invite you to ask yourselves what you truly want from your wedding images. If you’re simply looking for photographs of a wedding day, there are many talented photographers who can provide that. What I offer is something deeper.

“Had a wonderful experience with Nestor for our baby shower. Such a talent and kind soul! Will definitely use him again!”
