DJ Rick A was hands down the BEST!!! he was so fun & energetic and played bangers back-to-back-to-back x 10 to where the dance floor was NEVER empty (and we didn’t really have a dancing crowd). we had the twilight baseball scene as the grand entrance and he HYPED everyone up for it. towards the end of the night, we got caught up talking to guests so he was packing up, but he made sure we got our last solo dance also my sister was taking photos of everyone so i wanted to share one of Rick :)

After celebrating my own 16th wedding anniversary, my partner and I have truly been able to reflect on what is important on a wedding day, and I'm here to bring the wisdom to you! I believe that digital photography and images are a HUGE gift and can provide us with so many more memories than we were previously able to retain. And, just like reading a physical book vs. an e-book, prints hit different. You're not photographing your own wedding — you're trusting a professional to lead you through the best experience you can have and to give you the best art you can get.

We had a wonderful experience with Jessica Knighton Photography. Even though we booked last minute, Jessica was kind, communicative, and incredibly helpful the whole way through. She went above and beyond—helping coordinate the location and even providing beautiful florals. Our wedding photos turned out absolutely stunning, and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!

Awarded Best of Zola
Studio Veil was exceptionally professional and organized. We never had a single concern about the DJ services leading up to our wedding. What we loved most was Studio Veil’s philosophy—weddings are about the couple, not the vendors. They offered as much or as little support as we needed, allowing us to have as much input over the DJ experience as we wanted. Brent was our DJ, and he was outstanding. In our pre-wedding meeting, we introduced him to a few unique ideas, and he embraced them all without hesitation. We even sent him our playlists just two days before the wedding, and he managed to perfect everything in time. On the day itself, Brent adapted to every last-minute change, flawlessly hitting all cues and keeping our song wishlist front and center. He checked in with us throughout the night in a relaxed, unobtrusive way, quieted the crowd gracefully, and kept the energy flowing without ever making it about him. Brent’s set was brilliant. He began the night with familiar favorites for our older guests and then shifted to a younger, more upbeat vibe as the evening progressed. His transitions were seamless, and he truly read the room perfectly. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

The Van Dusen Mansion was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the first time we reached out, the staff was fast, efficient, and incredibly kind throughout the entire planning process.

Welcome! I’m Britt and I am the gal behind the lens at Render Photography. I love traveling, napping, embarrassing my kids, and horses, whiskey, and LOVE. My idea of a life well-lived is one where I get to help others see the love they have in their lives, and to give them something that helps them feel it and remember it more fiercely. I love stories and I’d love to help tell a chapter of yours.

We cannot recommend Britt enough, or emphasize how grateful we are to have found Render Photography. From the first Zoom get-to-know-you meeting to our engagement session through to the big day, Britt was an absolute knowledgeable and helpful pro, helping us make decisions on key details like day-of timelines while exuding a warm, friendly style that helped my partner and I feel at ease in front of the camera (we both are naturally camera shy). Her ability to maintain a calm and chill demeanor through tight schedules while simultaneously wrangling our 18-person wedding party into looking like movie stars is honestly a superpower. I'm absolutely obsessed with how our photos turned out. They say that choosing a wedding photographer is one of the most important choices you make, as they're likely the person you and your spouse spend the most time with on your wedding day. You want to trust that this person has got it all under control, and will capture your day beautifully. Trust me - choose Britt.

Looking for your wedding venue? Look no further! The Graduate was the most exceptional venue for our big day! Planning: Michael was phenomenal from day one. We live out of state and did much of our planning via emails/calls. We were able to see the venue when it worked with our schedule and Michael was quick to respond when we had questions. Michael is great at setting timelines and gives a really easy excel to assist with the food planning. Location: Parking ramp with a skywalk attached and many amenities in walking distance! Our guests had so many compliments about the ease of our location as well as HOW COOL the hotel is. It is so unique and offers something for everyone. We booked the get ready room and that was nice to have the night before and day off for people to meet up in. We also did the Top Golf Suite the morning of and the groomsmen had a blast. Food: The catering package was amazing. Our guests continue to rave about the food. The cocktail hour had amazing snacks! The team even made sure my husband and I got our own plate to enjoy. Dinner was seamless and the portions were huge. No one was left hungry. Our late night pizza was also a hit! Staff: The staff from the front desk, to the bartenders, to the catering team, EVERYONE WAS AMAZING. So kind, always had a smile and there were no hiccups. If we had any questions they were eager to help and kept everything on track. Price: You get a lot for what you pay for. The package included perks as well! Overall: I would get married here again in a heartbeat. My husband and I had so much fun and the entire Graduate team was amazing. Do not overlook this amazing venue!

We had nothing bundt cakes for our dessert. We chose to do bundtinis so everyone could try one or two flavors and eat them when they want. The team at nothing bundt cakes was great. They responded to our request very quick and let us know all our options. They also offered a tasting box with all their flavors for you to try at home. Everything was super easy and the delivery to the venue was great. And they offer anniversary cakes for life!! :)

Our wedding at the Merriot Hotel was unforgettable experience, and we couldn't have asked for a better venue or team to help us celebrate our special day. From the moment we first visited the hotel, we were impressed by its elegance and beautiful spaces. The staff was welcoming, and overall atmosphere was perfect for our wedding. A special shoutout goes to our event manager Becca! She was absolutely Phenomenal. From out initial planning meetings to the big day itself, Becca made everything seamless and stress-free. Her attention to detail, organization, and communication were outstanding. She listened to our vision and went above and beyond to bring it to life, ensuring that every aspect of our wedding was executed flawlessly. On the day of the wedding, Becca was a calming presence, coordinating with all the vendors and making sure everything ran on schedule. She handled any hiccups with grace and professionalism, allowing us to focus on enjoying our special moments with family and friends. The food was delicious, and the service was impeccable! Our guests raved about the beautiful setting, and incredible meal, and overall experience. We are so grateful to the Marriot Hotel and Becca for making our wedding day truly magical.

I've had the joy of spending the past 7 years capturing more than 120+ weddings! My style is timeless and story focused. I’m not here to give you a music video or a highlight reel. I'm here to create an heirloom. One that you'll love, cherish, and pass on for generations to come. The real investments on your wedding day are the ones you can enjoy for decades after your special day, and that bring back all of those priceless memories and emotions.

We can’t say enough great things about Chris! He filmed our wedding, and the experience was absolutely amazing. From the start, he was incredibly easy to work with—professional, friendly, and truly passionate about his craft. At first, we weren’t even planning on having a wedding video, but now, looking back, it’s the one thing we cherish the most. Chris captured every special moment beautifully, and the final video was beyond what we ever expected. The way he brought our day to life makes us feel like we’re reliving it every time we watch. If you’re on the fence about getting a wedding video, do it—and make sure Chris is the one behind the camera! You won’t regret it.
