Philip Sammut’s passion for floral design and creative expertise are the guiding forces behind the success of Pedestals Floral Decorators. His team of trained, creative and insured designers sets Pedestals apart from the rest. The floral design studio and special events company, located in Garden City Park has been creating imaginative and elegant floral arrangements for sophisticated and demanding clientele for over twenty years. Always keeping up with the latest trends and fashions, keeps Pedestals in the forefront of the industry.

We cannot ever thank Pedestals enough for how beautiful everything turned out for our wedding. Everyone could not stop complimenting the floral arrangements!! It was perfect from bouquets to each centerpiece and our arch. I came to Sandy without a true vision of florals and had no idea what I was doing. She turned my mismatched thoughts into perfection and a dream come true. I had the centerpieces repurposed into bouquets for guests to take home & everyone absolutely loved that they were able to take some of the gorgeous flowers home with them. It was beautiful and perfect but it would not have been that way without our florals from Pedestals!! 2 weeks later and people are STILL telling us they were the most beautiful florals at a wedding!!! You will not be disappointed!

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.

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.

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.

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!

Cannot recommend Holly and Tammy from Fig and Pig enough. For starters food often is an after thought in weddings it’s like you need it but you don’t remember it. We wanted the food to be an experience for our guests and they did not disappoint. No matter what dish you got it was superb. They worked with us to make a special treat for the Cocktail hour and people are still coming to me weeks later saying how brilliant that was. They worked with my dietary restrictions and made the process seamless.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment my husband and I connected with Georgie, we were impressed by her detailed, timely, and easy communication style. Her work is truly timeless and breathtaking. I loved how Georgie trusted and embraced my ideas, like the spontaneous "trash the dress" shoot we did at the beach. Her posing guidance was invaluable, and she captured every moment with such grace and beauty. Even nearly 10 years later, Georgie's edits and attention to detail continue to amaze us- not just on our photos but every new photo she posts on socials. We are so grateful to have these breathtaking photos that will stand the test of time and perfectly capture the joy of our special day. It’s done that for so long already and we couldn’t be happier! Her work is truly made “with love”.

I’m a photographer for people who don’t resonate with traditional wedding photography.

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.

You can't do better than Ryan and Jill. They were very responsive and communicative from the start. They are incredibly down to earth people that feel like they've been your friends for years. Don't worry about being awkward in front of the camera with them. They don't pose you, but they have little games you play with your partner that put you two in the love zone for them to expertly capture. They excel at capturing raw emotion and telling the natural (unposed) story of your wedding day. I found it so hard to narrow down which prints we put into an album and printed to display in our home because photo after photo was so beautiful. Their work is pure art. We cannot recommend these two enough!

It was easily the thing our guests complimented most. Mellanee was practically a celebrity by the end of the night!! Seriously, our guests raved about the catering. My brother asked to meet Mellanee just so he could thank her personally for the ox tail spring rolls, lol. The Fork Goes on the Left stood out for their menu creation, artfully designed to accentuate our Jamaican, Filipino and Italian heritage. Mellanee was able to accommodate all of our requests, while providing invaluable insight from her professional experience. She handled our wedding trial and day with the utmost of care. I’m forever grateful we decided to go with a caterer whose love shines through her food (as opposed to one of the larger companies we were considering). Her staff was professional and made sure dinner service was handled efficiently. Our wedding memories wouldn’t be quite the same without Mellanee and The Fork Goes on the Left. If you want a reliable professional with a knack for making delicious food, you’ve just found it.

For the cocktail hour we asked them to play pop songs and music from our favorite movies, our guests are still talking about their talent and how amazing they made our day. We can't imagine having our beautiful wedding without them, highly recommend to everyone!

I started Petal Design Studio in 2006, making the decision to turn a lifelong love of flowers and nature into a career. I am always excited by the challenges and opportunities that each new client brings. For me, an intimate wedding dinner for 20 or a blow-out bash for 300 inspire the same attention to detail and creative expression needed to make an event that is both memorable and delightful.

I can't begin to recommend Corrie and Petal Design Studio enough. My husband and I planned a small, intimate, micro-wedding in a month during the COVID-19 pandemic. Corrie was extremely easy to work with, knowledgable, professional, stuck within our budget, clear and full of amazing ideas. The room looked perfect, warm, inviting and intimate. If I ever need to make an event space look gorgeous, I know who I am calling. :)

I found Jura through Instagram, where all of her arrangements were not only beautiful, but felt organic, interesting and creative. After meeting with Migle, the owner of Jura, I was excited to support a newer small business like Migle's. She has had plenty of experience within the event/florist industry prior to starting her own business. She put together a quote that was very reasonable. In the month leading up to our wedding date, I met with Migle to finalize our design ideas. She included an update with specific flowers and art inspiration the week leading up to the event, and we emailed back-and-forth to finalize a couple small details prior to the event. All of the florals, from the bouquets (to color match the bridesmaids' dresses!), the centerpieces, the bar installation, fireplace installation-wow!!- words can't describe how beautiful they were and how they were exactly what I was hoping for and more! I'm so happy and grateful Jura was a part of our day at the Bowery Hotel. Migle's artistry and talent is truly so special. I HIGHLY recommend Jura and their team!
