NataliaRes Beauty 

5.0

  • Beauty professional
  • Serves Long Island City, NY

My passion for makeup and hair artistry was visible since a very young age. At 16 years old, I entered my first creative competition and placed top 3 for all of Long Island, New York. After years of pursuing hair/makeup as a hobby, I wanted to take my craft to a professional level and wound up at the London AOFM. The journey from NY to London gave me an entirely different perspective of the beauty industry. While learning from top artists from around the world, I honed in on and advanced my technique. I am now a freelance artist working in Bridal and with the Photo Studio Group specializing in modeling portfolios.

Natalia and her team were very professional and talented. Not only did everyone look amazing, the makeup and hair lasted all night. I would definitely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone.

With a passion for providing high-quality services and an obsession with Makeup since the age of 3, I’ve been involved in the beauty industry since 2007. My mission is to offer my brides everything they need to look and feel their best.

Awarded Best of Zola
Abby Lauren created the most beautiful wedding look that made me feel like myself and lasted all night. Abby was recommended to me by my photographer, Justin McCallum, for my wedding. From the first call we had, Abby and I clicked immediately and I knew that she would be able to bring my makeup vision to life. My mom and I each had a trial with her and Abby nailed the look the first go around. I had done a couple of other trials and was coming in a little wary, but I showed Abby what I was thinking and she didn't just look at the reference images and start working - she heard my concerns and my asks and made me feel so taken care of. Originally Abby was just going to do makeup for my mom, MIL, MOH, and me but after our trial, I expanded the list to include all of my bridesmaids as well. On the day of my wedding, My group could not stop raving about Abby and her beautiful work. She made us all feel so beautiful and our best selves. She and I worked together to build out the schedule and even when people were running late, she was flexible and went with the flow. I loved working with Abby and would jump at the chance to work with her again for any reason.

Lindsay Lazare Photography

  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Serves Long Island City, NY

Moments happen in front of me and I make a split decision on how valuable those moments will be over time. The second I click the camera is when I confirm it was glittering gold. I look for that gold all day, constantly seeking out what is valuable. As a mother, a daughter, a sister, and a wife, I know the feeling of being in a moment, seeing something happen that is seemingly mundane, but then realizing years later just how grateful I am that I actually took out my camera and documented that memory.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Lindsay for our wedding was an absolute dream. From the moment she arrived, she made us feel completely at ease, allowing us to truly enjoy every moment of the day. Her creativity and incredible eye for detail brought out the best in every shot, capturing not just the moments but the emotions behind them. Lindsay’s energy and charisma made the whole experience so much fun—whether she had us running through vineyards or sharing a quiet glance, she made every moment feel authentic and effortless. She truly captured the essence of who we are, and the photos are a perfect reflection of our personalities and the joy of the day. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Just The Melody Band 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Long Island City, NY

JUST THE MELODY BAND (JTM) is an all-star cast featuring a Grammy nominee and voices featured in tv/film and theatre. Led by singer, songwriter, and recording artist Melody Rodriguez, the band can be heard in numerous styles such as Latin Pop, Boy Bands and 90’s nostalgia, while authentically performing standards and classics with powerhouse vocals.

Awarded Best of Zola
When looking for a band for a multicultural wedding, we knew they had to be special. Just the Melody was the first band we reached out to and it was clear from the onset that we didn’t have to look any further because we knew they were the ones. Throughout the entire experience, Melody and Edvin were an absolute dream to work with. They were incredibly responsive and took the planning process seriously while also keeping it fun. We were able to have multiple planning meetings where they clearly listened to our vision and more specifically the energy we were hoping to bring to the entire evening. Our wedding included multiple different musical moments that Just the Melody was able to provide with aplomb. The ceremony was romantic instrumental music that transitioned to modern pop instrumentals during the first half of the cocktail hour. Then a Mariachi band took over the second half of the cocktail hour with Melody providing gorgeous vocals for a few songs before the 12-piece band took over the magic for the rest of the night. The band with Edvin as MC matched the energy of our guests the entire night in a way we never expected. After our first dance, a beautiful rendition of Luis Miguel’s”Por Debajo De La Mesa”, the band moved right into a wondrous lineup of Latin music including Cumbia, Bachata, and Salsa that got our guests up and on their feet. From that point forward the dancing was nonstop with both American and Latin music filling the air. They also helped us celebrate the joining of our Jewish and Latino cultures by playing the Hora followed by La Vibora De La Mar. Edvin and Melody worked well with our venue to time our fathers’ speeches when our guests paused for a moment to eat and they were thoughtful with the tempo of the night by pairing this with our father/bride and mother/groom dances. After dinner they brought the energy right back up and we even got to see some of Edvin’s unreal dance moves when the 90s/2000s pop music started up. We could absolutely not believe it when they allowed us to come on stage and belt out one of our favorite songs (Jimmy Eat World’s “The Middle”). It was a living dream (especially for the bride). We cannot say enough how much both of us and all of our guests absolutely adored Just the Melody. We have been told multiple times by our guests that they didn't expect to go to a concert along with our wedding and that they loved every minute of it. And we did too. The music the entire evening was exceptional and better than anything we could have come up with in our wildest dreams for the evening. Thank you Melody, Edvin and the entire Just the Melody crew - we could not have chosen better for our wedding!!

I'm a wedding photographer who blends film and digital with an editorial and documentary flair. Movies, TV shows, Vanity Fair magazines, and the timeless style of the Mad Men era have always captivated me. There's something enduring and meaningful about photos of icons like Marilyn Monroe and JFK, both posed and candid. I strive to bring that same timeless quality to your wedding memories, making them feel like pages out of a magazine.

We have nothing, but amazing things to say about Georgie. She is incredibly kind and thoughtful, but also very upfront and honest - which we appreciated. We weren't sure about everything we wanted to capture, but somehow she made sure to get the most important moments, group photos, and candids. (We are sharing one of our dog) All to say, from the initial conversation to the delivery of the final photos, we couldn't have asked for more. Thank you, Georgie, for helping make our wedding day so special!

Awarded Best of Zola
We cannot recommend Stat10 Productions enough!! The entire team was very professional from the time of the first meeting, to the time of the wedding, and post-wedding. Their team was in constant communication with us regarding planned songs, any questions we may have, anything we may need from them, and going over the event itinerary. Anytime we did have a question, they were very quick in their response times. They have a full menu of additions to their DJ services, including photobooths, light packages, pyrotechnics, and fog machines, etc. We opted for the photobooth, which was a very fun addition, and a hit for the party. Upon signing the contract, they set us up with a personal website where we could listen to suggested songs, and help organize what songs to play and when. Prior to the wedding itself, we met several times in person, to discuss and review specific songs to ensure the correct ones were selected. The attention to detail was meticulous and did not go unnoticed. The entire team is very personable and kind, and clearly has a lot of experience in the industry. They were able to advise us on the types of songs to play when and why, which was very helpful for planning our wedding. They kept the energy high and the dance floor packed, while dealing with the challenge of keeping the volume a little lower than people usually want (so we could have conversations without accompanying voice loss). They made sure our favorite songs were included (going to some lengths to find some of our odder, harder-to-find requests), while reading the energy from the crowd. If you're looking for a quality, reliable DJ to make your event unforgettable, we HIGHLY recommend Stat10 Productions!

Hi I'm Danielle and I’m so excited you’re here! I freaking LOVE my job! I get to come into your life, envelop myself in the magic of your love, inspire sweet interactions and freeze those unbeatable moments in time. After 6 years doing happy dances and climbing over things to ‘get the shot’, I’ve only become steadily more obsessed with illustrating love, nailing the shot, and serving my couples in every way I can. If you seek classic images with a heap of genuine emotion and a dash of adventure, I already know we’ll be fast friends. Let’s grab a virtual coffee and hang!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who is flexible and easy to work with, who is an awesome person that genuinely cares about all of her couples, and who will give you amazing pictures of your day, I highly recommend booking Danielle Salerno! For me a photographer was my highest priority vendor for my wedding day and I did a lot of extensive research before choosing Danielle. Once I saw her work I just knew I needed her to capture my day. I had a ton of questions before I booked and Danielle was willing to meet with my husband and me in person and patiently answered all of them. When it came time to take our engagement pictures my husband and I chose Island Beach State Park. The area we wanted to use for pictures required us to pile into my husband’s car and drive about ten minutes on the beach. Danielle was more than willing to make it happen for us and we wound up with stunning pictures that we love. We were all set to have Danielle shoot our wedding in May when COVID hit. My husband and I decided to postpone our big wedding, originally to September 2020 and then again to September 2021. Danielle was extremely accommodating with helping us find a new date in both instances and made the process super simple and stress free for us. We also decided that we still wanted to have a small backyard ceremony on our original wedding date and we were so thankful to have Danielle there to capture the moment we became husband and wife. Danielle was very flexible throughout the whole process, even when we wound up changing the timeline for the ceremony two days beforehand and when we wound up running behind the day of. We now have incredible pictures that we will cherish forever and we already can’t wait to have Danielle capture our big wedding next year! Book Danielle and I promise you will not be disappointed :)

Alessarro Beauty

  • Serves Long Island City, NY

I thought I would share with you what 'Alessarro' means. 'Ales' ... taken from Alessio ... my mother's family name & 'sarro' ... taken from DiSarro ... my father's family name Growing up I was very fortunate to be close to both sides of my family. So why not name my business after the people the helped mold me into the woman that I am today. I am also forever indebted to many of them for stepping up to be a model as I cultivated my artistic ability. Ashley is a Brooklyn-based makeup artist and hairstylist; the creative force behind Alessarro Beauty.

I loved working with Ashley and her team at Alessaro Beauty for our September 2021 wedding. Our wedding was affected by COVID-19 and we ended up shifting our date to over a year out. Ashley was extremely accommodating and worked with us to update the contract to our new date without hassle. I met with Ashley and her hair stylist, Zuleika, for a trial a month or so before the wedding. It was a great opportunity to meet in person, talk about the wedding vision, and get to know them better to ultimately feel more comfortable on the day. I was initially drawn to Ashley because she not only does weddings, but also high fashion, film & TV, and other events in NYC, which was important to me for a chic look. She has such extensive product knowledge + expertise, and as a makeup/skincare lover myself, I really enjoyed talking through all the products she was using. The makeup trial wasn’t exactly what I had in mind, so we discussed alternatives and shared reference photos via email to nail down the final look. To start, Ashley did my and my sister’s makeup for the rehearsal dinner, which was stunning and got us excited to kick off the weekend. On the day of the wedding, Ashley and her team arrived on time and were a joy to have getting ready in the bridal suite. They did hair and makeup for not only myself and 6 bridesmaids, but also my mother, MIL, and SIL, so it was a tall order and they absolutely nailed it. I was OBSESSED with my final bridal look - I loved the false eyelashes and the gorgeous Mac lipstick (which Ashley gifted so I could reapply throughout the day). I truly felt like a show-stopping bride and the absolute best version of myself. We arranged for Ashley to stay throughout the first look, ceremony, and the start of the reception to do a few touch ups, which honestly was the best decision to keep me looking gorg all day and night. At the end of the experience, Ashley proved to be more like a friend than a vendor. She is so kind, enthusiastic, and truly has a passion for what she does, which shines through every interaction. I highly recommend Ashley and her team at Alessaro Beauty for your wedding or event.

We are Ryan + Jillian, a husband and wife photography team. We fell into wedding photography after our own wedding when Ryan's best man/cousin Sean passed away. Receiving our wedding photos while helping plan the funeral was the greatest gift we could have ever gotten. At that moment, fully understanding just how fleeting life truly is, that started our love affair with wedding photography. We love how wedding photography does not have to be corny or grossly over staged. It can be candid, genuine, and provide amazing couples with images that they will cherish for a lifetime.

I'll never forget the moment they asked my now husband to whisper the names of vegetables in his sexiest voice in my ear. His response "hot lettuce". I couldn't stop laughing and the result was authentic, beautiful, moments rather than uncomfortable posed photographs. I loved working with Ryan and Jill. Having them at our micro-wedding felt more like an extension of our friends and family and less like just another vendor. They were kind, thoughtful, and did a great job with our photographs. I would hire them again in a heartbeat. Thanks Ryan and Jill!

Migle isn't your run-of-the-mill florist — she's a true floral artist. She effortlessly captured our vision for our wedding, bringing it to life with breathtaking arrangements that exceeded our expectations. Her choice of unexpected and beautiful flower pairings added an artistic flair that made the event truly unique. Weeks later, we're still saying how the flowers were our favorite part of the event! If you're considering Jura, please go for it, knowing that Migle will understand the assignment (even if you're not sure what you want!), and bring a professionalism, passion, and kindness to the craft. We're so grateful for Migle's part in making every bloom at our wedding perfect and making our day unforgettable.

Let’s start with “WOW!” We had a music festival themed wedding with four bands so music was a critical piece of our wedding weekend and the standards were high. We interviewed over 20 bands from the NYC area and decided to go with Vitamin M after really vibing with their band leader, JJ. And boy are we glad we did! JJ worked with us to curate the perfect performance for us and our guests. He was able to balance dance songs and classics alongside some custom requests that went off the beaten path of most traditional weddings from the likes of The Band, Talking Heads and The Clash. He even helped us surprise our guests with a singing introduction of the bride and groom. He took time to get to know us and was always happy to answer any questions we had. This was not a cookie cutter wedding band performance. This is a group of truly talented professional musicians putting on a real show. Our guests and even our vendors are still telling us today, months later, that this was the best wedding band that they’ve ever seen. We are extremely happy with our decision to hire Vitamin M for our wedding. No diggity, no doubt.

So happy I was able to find MO Everlasting Weddings for my wedding this past June! Menaza was very likable and easy to work with from the beginning. She was super helpful with our vendors. It also was super helpful to have her do a walk through at the venue and be at the church for our rehearsal. It really helped everything go according to plan! She also had a great advice along the way and made me feel super comfortable. I truly enjoyed my wedding without worrying about any little issue knowing she was there as support. Thank you so so much Menaza & Nick!
