Don’t overlook the Short Hills Hilton for your wedding! It was the perfect location for our big day, offering a central gathering spot where our guests didn’t have to worry about traveling throughout the day. We explored several traditional venues, but none felt as right as this one. We had a November wedding and didn’t expect to have an outdoor ceremony, but the hotel’s lovely patio space was a wonderful option, and surprisingly, the noise from the JFK Parkway wasn’t an issue. For our indoor ceremony, the venue features a permanent enclosed tent structure. At first glance, it didn’t seem like much, but with the help of the event coordinator Vivian Cohen’s help and coordination with our florist, the space was transformed into something breathtaking. The reception space was spacious and perfect for our 170 guests—large enough for everyone to feel comfortable but not so big that it felt empty. Guests still rave about the food and service! The chef and maître d' truly deserve all the praise. The hors d’oeuvres were diverse and delicious, from sliders to a pasta bar to sushi. We chose the salmon and short ribs for dinner, which we selected during a private tasting session. The hotel grounds, filled with foliage, were perfect for photos, especially as we were lucky to have beautiful fall colors for our shoot. Victoria at the Hilton was incredibly helpful with coordinating room blocks, hotel room gift bags, and storage. Vivian was a dream to work with—she was welcoming, communicative, and made everything run smoothly. Her checklist was a lifesaver for keeping track of details, and she was hands-on with day-of coordination, ensuring everyone knew where they needed to be and helping with the little touches that made everything perfect. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or team to help make our wedding day unforgettable!

Smoke Rise Village Inn was beyond exceptional in hosting our wedding. From the moment we booked with them, the manager Kelly was on top of every little detail of our big day like it was her own. She took genuine pride in her work and clearly loves helping couples create their dream wedding. Despite the common belief that things will inevitably go wrong on your wedding day, we can firmly say that not one single thing went wrong with ours. I attribute this flawless execution entirely to the professionalism and attention to detail of the Smoke Rise Village Inn team.

We believe that every moment of your special day deserves to be celebrated and preserved with utmost care and creativity. We have covered more than 200 weddings.

Lucas was a true 10/10 photographer. We were absolutely blown away by his photos. They are so creative and gorgeous, and we are over the moon with how beautifully he captured our day. It's so hard to even pick our favorites because every single one is stunning! We wanted our wedding to have a romantic, moody, old-world feel, and each photo Lucas took evoked that vibe perfectly. The photos are so romantic and tell such a beautiful story, reminding us of all the feelings we had on our wedding day. Lucas is so kind, so working with him was super easy. He somehow managed to be everywhere at once and captured every single moment of our wedding, down to the smallest of details. We could not have chosen a better photographer, and the photos he sent us (so quickly! less than two months later) will be treasured forever. Thank you, Lucas, for the memories that will last us a lifetime!

Imagine your guests entering your reception to the sounds of violins as they arrive to your venue, then enter your ceremony or cocktail to the sounds of a string or classical ensemble. Let us show you how to start your party off right and give your guests a “sense of arrival".

We had the pleasure of having Phase One perform at our wedding for the ceremony, reception, and after-party, and they absolutely blew us away! From start to finish, they were engaged not only with us but with the entire crowd. Their energy was contagious, and they knew exactly how to read the room, keeping everyone on the dance floor the whole time. The transitions between songs were seamless, and the variety in their set list kept all of our guests—young and old—dancing nonstop. We couldn’t have asked for a better band to set the perfect tone for our big day. Highly recommend Phase One to anyone looking to elevate their event with incredible live music! A special shout out to our Band leader Rich who made the process so easy!

Weddings are a lot of work… let us help You already have a working vision but need a professional to answer questions, offer advice, and coordinate the details of your wedding day so it can be everything you ever dreamed of. Please submit all inquires directly through our website.

Hiring Victoria was the absolute best money we have ever spent. To say she was INCREDIBLE is an understatement... she went above and beyond in every possible way, and she is the number one reason that our wedding day was a success. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, Victoria was very communicative and made sure that were as ready and organized as possible.. she truly thought of EVERYTHING, including things that never even crossed my mind (and I thought I was very prepared). The morning of the wedding, she checked in with my MOH to make sure that hair and makeup had started on time. When hair and makeup ran late, she was an absolute lifesaver and figured out a way for us to stay on track with our timeline for the rest of the day. Throughout the entire day, she was incredible. She made sure all of our vendors were on the same page and set up all of our decor (and there was a ton of it because we DIY'd nearly everything). She had an emergency kit filled with every item that possibly could have been needed throughout the day, and when my bustle did not work, she was able to bustle my dress using only safety pins (this was a LIFESAVER)!!! Throughout the night, she made sure that we stayed on track with our timeline, and she took down and packed up ALL of our decor at the end of the night. Not only was Victoria super detail-oriented and prepared, but she was also incredibly kind and supportive. I would 10000000/10 recommend Victoria to anyone that is planning a wedding. She was basically our hero for the entire day, and I can not imagine our day going as smoothly as it did without her.

I believe in the power of makeup to make people feel confident, radiant, and beautifully themselves.

Malika did my makeup for a party once, and I absolutely loved how it turned out! She gave me a look that felt very natural and still made me feel special. What I really appreciated was how friendly and easygoing she was — it made the whole experience so comfortable. She listened to what I wanted and didn’t go overboard, which I really liked. If you're someone who prefers subtle, elegant makeup, I’d definitely recommend her!

  • Videographer

Hi my name is Cristian M. Velez, I am the lead cinematographer and owner at Cinemarvelfilms. All started when I got one of my first cameras over 10 years ago, and began filming my daughter's life from birth all the way until she was 7 years old. When I edited all of the short clips together to create a film capturing her first seven years of life, my passion for crafting memories and telling stories through video began.

As a wedding photographer, I've worked with countless videographers - and Cristian truly is the best of the best. Many videographers do fine work, kinda just getting through the day, while others really put in some extra energy. And then there's Cristian. He is really the cream of the crop as he very deeply cares about the couples and the weddings that he is filming. He isn't just trying to document the day, he is always striving to create beautiful art, to think about how he can make each shot just a bit better. He also pays attention to capturing audio in a way that most videographers do not - and that makes such a huge difference in the final product. I have been recommending Cristian to my couples since I first worked with him, and they are always thrilled with him and his work. He is a pleasure to be around, a true team player, and an artist who cares deeply about his couples.

Mushmouth plays every show like it's Madison Square Garden! Lead singer Bill's energy is off the charts - a mix of Bruce Springsteen, Mick, Jagger, James Brown and a sprinkle of David Byrne all rolled into one! The band, a group of longtime friends, pulls off note for note renditions of all the songs while also adding to the on-stage fun. The Mushmouth show consists of big hits, one hit wonders and lost nuggets from the 70's, 80's, 90's and beyond. From Glen Campbell to the FOO FIGHTERS, Duran Duran to Eric Church.

Mushmouth is an absolutely incredible band—they had people asking us all night (and still to this day) how I found them. I think I turned quite a few of our wedding guests into Mushmouth groupies! From the beginning they were very accommodating, always quick to respond and accommodating to our song requests. They have a huge set list to select from no matter what your taste is, and they even learned new songs just for us so that we could do our first dance with live music. It really felt like we were part of a live concert just for us at our wedding. They sound so amazing and not only are they truly talented musicians, but they are also incredible performers who got everyone to dance and sing along. I received compliments all night that they were the best cover band anyone had ever heard. Mushmouth made our wedding day extra special, and I would book them again in a heartbeat.

I reside in Jersey City, New Jersey, serving New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and beyond. I grew up surrounded by family photos.

At Remember That! Photography, I’m all about capturing the real stuff—the moments that matter, big and small. I’ve been photographing weddings since 2012, and after years of documenting love stories, I’ve launched this new business with a fresh perspective and a focus blending creative storytelling with genuine emotion, from quiet first looks to the wild dance floor moments. I take the time to get to know each couple so your photos reflect your personality, not just a checklist. The result? Timeless images that feel true to you and your day.

I am so happy to hear that Chuck is starting his own photography business! When he contacted me to write a review I had to say yes. Chuck was my photographer when he was with Two Guys Videography, and I could not have been happier with his professionalism, his personality (he kept a nervous bride calm), and of course his pictures. There are SO many! From the engagement pictures to the last dance, he really captured our story. I just looked through them again before writing this, and am thrilled all over with all he did.

My husband and I wanted to express our sincere gratitude for the overall beauty and charm of Grand Cascades Lodge, which made our wedding day truly memorable. The stunning views, exquisite grounds, and the spacious Emerald ballroom were perfect for our celebration. Working with Jean and Sara was generally a positive experience, and their welcoming attitude during our visits meant a lot to us. However, I wanted to share some constructive feedback regarding the planning process. While our customization requests were accommodated, there were communication challenges, especially on the day of the wedding, with multiple points of contact. The food tasting experience was delightful, and we appreciate the effort in accommodating our preferences. Although some dishes at the cocktail hour were well-received, the braised beef dish didn't meet the standard set during the tasting. Unfortunately, there were a few issues during the weekend that impacted our experience: - The memory table candles were not lit until late in the reception, despite prior requests. - Our sweetheart table had a wrinkled tablecloth, affecting the overall presentation. - The florist's flowers for the cake were left with the kitchen staff, and despite assurances, they were not added as planned. - The shuttle service delay inconvenienced elderly guests who had to wait longer than expected. Additionally shuttle service that was promised during the after party did not work as agreed upon. While these points highlight areas for improvement, we want to emphasize our appreciation for the positive aspects of our celebration. We understand that events may encounter unforeseen challenges, and we believe that sharing our experience can contribute to enhancing future events at GCL. Thank you for your attention to our feedback.

The Terrace itself was a gem! Our guests raved about the cocktail hour! It was an assortment of the best food possible, all so fresh and impossible to not go back for more. Bar service was top notch and our signature drinks were a hit! (Barbra actually was the one who made that vision come alive! Lavender martini and bacon maple ole fashioned). The dessert hour was a fire show! (Literally a fire show) And there was every dessert possible! Carnival, ice creams, cakes, cookies, chocolate fondue, etc! We had our first look down the road at another location but we took photos on site in the front of the entrance to the terrace and they came out beautiful! It's a smaller area but it has beautiful flowers and a stream. The ceremony was on the roof top and it was beautiful with the waterfall fountain and stone fire place! Lots of cute places to take some very nice photos! Along with the string lights and arch, it was a dream. I can't rave enough about how much Biagios made our day so enjoyable, and beautiful. I would recommend them over and over again thank you again to the hardworking staff, Barbara, John and Tommy. It is a night we will cherish forever. Oh, and they allow dogs to be in the ceremony It was everything to be able to have our fur baby share our special day with us.

I'm a mom and a New Jersey wedding photographer!! I love Jesus! I really really love to travel!!! And I'm the one who always plan the vacations. My favorite food is Italian. If I had to choose between the beach and snow, you'd definitely see me jumping into the water! I have a degree in Accounting and Finance and I love to create budgets. I was born in Cuba, so my first language is Spanish, lived in Colombia for a few years and I plan to get old in the United States.

Sarai came recommended in a wedding group I was in, and we could not have been more pleased with our decision to hire her for our intimate courthouse wedding. From our very first interaction, Sarai was incredibly responsive, friendly, and collaborative in helping us plan the perfect November morning around lower Manhattan. My husband and I have varying degrees of comfort with pictures, yet she was able to capture both staged shots and joyful, candid moments that made our wedding day so memorable. Sarai took the time to get to know us as a couple and brought out our goofy, playful sides without even trying. She went above and beyond anything we could have imagined, delivering the best value for the incredible quality of her work. Sarai is not only an incredibly talented photographer, but a genuinely kind and personable human being. We cannot recommend Sari Photography highly enough for any couple looking to document their wedding day with beautiful, timeless imagery.

Lake Valhalla Club is truly in a league of their own. Leading up to our November wedding, Coleen was endlessly helpful by quickly answering any questions we had. On the night of, Daniel and David seamlessly dealt with any last minute things that came up, kept us on schedule, and made our night unforgettable. Our guests still can’t stop raving about the food, the rustic vibes, the gorgeous views of the lake, and the superb level of service. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our guests with food allergies which was so appreciated. We utilized their list of preferred vendors and were blown away by everyone.

Our experience working with Pinstripes Paramus was exceptional from start to finish. Brette, the event coordinator, was incredibly responsive, understanding, and fun to work with throughout the entire planning process. She was patient and calm, which was greatly appreciated and complimented my crazy bride moments. The venue itself was truly unique, with an amazing ambiance and fun, laidback vibe that our guests raved about. Having the bowling and bocce ball options created such a memorable and different wedding experience that our friends and family are still talking about. The food was delicious, and the beautiful art and design of the space made for the most amazing photos.

We knew we wanted to get married at a NJ venue that had character, and from the moment we walked into Felina, we were set! Working with Carissa and her team was fantastic from start to finish. They know how to execute a great event, where to provide flexibility, and how to coach couples through the planning process. Carissa recommended a florist who knew the venue, which was also super helpful. The team was responsive to our needs and questions throughout the planning process. We had an amazing weekend and event at Felina. From the moment we arrived in the bridal suite, the team was extremely attentive, thoughtful, and organized. The food was awesome (get the short ribs!), and we had such an memorable and fantastic night. Our photos are gorgeous!!! Highly recommend Felina for your wedding!!!
