If you don't know what DJ to book for your wedding, please look no further! DJ Karizma was the first vendor I booked after the venue because I really valued the experience of the music, reception, and someone that is an amazing MC at getting the guests pumped, hooked and controlling a room for your timeline of events. I can say our guests and other vendors at the venue said this was the one of BEST wedding receptions they've been too because of DJ Karizma. We were literally dancing and screaming the whole time and I never left the dancefloor once reception started. (Still recovering to get my voice back). If you have a type of vibe that you are going for for your wedding, he will listen with all ears and do just that. If I could give 11/10 stars would!! This was the most unforgettable night of laughing, crying, dancing, so thank you so much DJ Karizma for your expertise and talent!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Now for the details: Brandon, Kellie, Elmer, and Becky were excellent to work with. They were communicative throughout the entire process and even sent monthly checklists to ensure the wedding planning timeline was ironed out and reminded you of the small details that most folks forget about. It’s the little things like these emails that went above and beyond to make sure our evening went as smoothly as possible. Our DJ, Elmer, was very enthusiastic despite challenges at the beginning of the event – the venue coordinator was very combative with him during set-up – and he didn’t let it affect the energy of the evening. (We didn’t find out until after the wedding date from our other vendors setting up and we had to reach out and ask about it because he didn’t want us to worry at all). He provided a high energy level and hits for dancing the whole evening and stuck to our favorite music vibes. Our photo booth operator, Becky, pulled us aside to take photos in the booth and thank goodness she did because we didn’t get the chance to go in before or after she pulled us aside. She put our guestbook together throughout the evening and it was fun to have something that captured our night to look through the next morning. Signature DJs was reasonably priced considering everything we received - music for ceremony & reception, mics, uplighting for dance floor, photo booth with guest book, monogram, and bubble exit complete with 2 bubble machines and bubbles for individual guests. They were flexible with our requests (customized monogram, unconventional timeline, and last-minute song additions) and had already worked at our venue so they were already familiar with the space which was super helpful because the venue coordinator was awful to work with. They put us at ease and gave us confidence that our day would be wonderful when we were the most stressed. Thank you so much, Brandon, Kellie, and team for setting the tone and giving us a memorable night!

When I was doing my research, she told me she was a solo artist, but manages her time in a way that’s unique… and I decided to take a chance on her cause I loved her honesty and saw all her positive reviews! She showed up early with a truck load of makeup and hair styling products and all in between! She made the entire getting ready experience AMAZING!!!! not only did she do an amazing job, but I was shocked to see my hair and makeup lasted all night long!! From crying, dancing my tail off…. Beyond happy!!! She even stayed to do as many touchups that needed to get done, and as you see from the video, she even stayed through ceremony! Highly highly recommend!!!! You would be dumb not to book her. Thank you again Priscilla for setting the tone to an amazing day! And of course for making me stunning!!!!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I recently celebrated my wedding this past weekend, and while Meagan wasn’t originally my wedding coordinator, she ended up being one of the biggest blessings of the day. She was assisting another vendor but stepped in to help with my wedding—and I am so incredibly grateful that she did. Before the ceremony, Meagan introduced herself and immediately reassured me that everything would be perfect. She promised to support my fiancé and me in any way she could—and she truly followed through. On the wedding day, Meagan brought the calm, guidance, and reassurance that I desperately needed. She was always just one step away—making sure I stayed hydrated, adjusting my dress, ensuring I looked presentable, and even handing me a box of tissues when emotions took over. She was warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. Despite only learning about our situation a week before the wedding, she became our biggest advocate. If I could go back, I would have hired her as my full-time wedding planner without hesitation. Her attention to detail, calm demeanor, and ability to handle every detail without ever stressing or alarming me made all the difference. Because of Meagan, our wedding day was seamless and stress-free. Meagan, thank you again for dedicating your weekend to support my fiancé and me. Your hard work and kindness did not go unnoticed, and we are forever grateful.

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with Bryauna and Jamar at Moments for Life Visuals. From booking our initial consultation to giving updates on wedding timelines to following up post wedding, they were responsive and easy to get in touch with. Jamar showed up right on time on our wedding day and we felt really comfortable with him around. He managed to capture the entire vibe of the day from the big moments to the little details. We were really on the fence about whether or not the cost of a videographer would be worth it since we already booked a photographer. Moments for Life had packages that fit with our budget and we’re so glad we booked them. Photos are great, but the videos we got are so full of life and are truly magical. If you’re on the fence about hiring a videographer - DO IT! We also really appreciated that Moments for Life gave us the raw footage of our ceremony, reception speeches, dancing, and cake cutting.

I cannot imagine our day without the CRC team! We utilized coordination services for the last 4 months and I am SO thankful we had this incredible team. Jenna was always quick to respond and anticipated our needs. Jenna had a form to organize all of our thoughts and worked out the details to mean fewer vendor meetings on our end. She worked seamlessly with our vendors who continuously complimented her to my husband and I. Our guests have told us it was the most organized wedding they have ever been to! This team is clearly full of incredibly organized, detail-oriented, and, most importantly, kindhearted people who made it clear they were there for us and excited for us!

As both a bride and a former wedding coordinator, I can’t recommend Kaytlyn enough! From the very beginning, she was a dream to work with — professional, responsive, and so easygoing. We first worked with her for our engagement session, and the results were absolutely stunning — she captured us so naturally and beautifully that we knew instantly she was the perfect choice for our wedding. On a personal note, I also booked a boudoir session with her as a surprise for my husband on our wedding day. She made me feel completely comfortable in a very vulnerable setting, and within minutes I was totally at ease. The results were elegant, empowering, and something I will treasure forever. On the wedding day itself, she blended seamlessly into the flow of events, capturing everything without ever feeling intrusive. Having worked with many photographers in my coordinator role, I can say her professionalism and ability to connect with her clients is truly exceptional. She has that rare combination of talent, warmth, and efficiency that every bride dreams of in a wedding vendor. If you’re a bride looking for a photographer who will make you feel comfortable, capture your day beautifully, and handle everything with professionalism, look no further — Kaytlyn is the one!

Mak was everything we could have hoped for as a wedding photographer. Since the moment we had a consultation, she was nothing but friendly and honest. She made my husband, who is extremely camera shy, feel comfortable in front of the camera and offered so many poses for us. Not to mention the quality of our gallery!! As someone who gets overwhelmed with major decision making, I can say with upmost confidence that Mak was the best and easiest decision as a vendor for our wedding, and I would choose her again and again!! This is your sign to book with her!!

KV Weddings & Luxury Events was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding.

We used KV Weddings for two proposal events, and they helped select the perfect locations and ensured the plans were fully customized. When we decided to have a small wedding, they also agreed to provide decorations. They even took wonderful photos and videos for us - services we hadn't originally planned for but were so grateful to have.
