Absolutely blown away by the magic of Georgina! She transformed me into a glowing goddess for my bridal shower, and I knew right then and there that she would be my go-to makeup artist for life.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Isabella Floral Studio for my wedding, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results. Jacie, who handled our floral arrangements, was incredibly accommodating and truly exceeded my expectations. From the beginning, I was drawn to the whimsical and natural style showcased in her photos, which perfectly aligned with what I envisioned for our big day. I provided some inspirational photos, and Jacie brought my ideas to life in a way that was even better than I had imagined. The moment I saw my bouquet, I immediately fell in love. The centerpieces and bud vases were stunning and complemented our venue perfectly. I was amazed by the unique and beautiful flowers she selected, many of which I had never seen before. Everything was perfect, and I can't imagine having anyone else be a part of making my wedding dreams come true.

Studio 27

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Merrick, NY

𝕠𝕟𝕖 𝕕𝕒𝕪, 𝕠𝕟𝕖 𝕤𝕥𝕠𝕣𝕪, 𝕠𝕟𝕖 𝕔𝕠𝕞𝕡𝕒𝕟𝕪. A New York based studio providing timeless photography, cinematography + DJ entertainment for your unforgettable day. Let us capture your memories to cherish for a lifetime.

You never see a bad review for Studio 27 and there’s a reason for it. They truly give a white glove service from start to finish and it was worth every penny. I am not a light and airy, heavily posed photography type of girl and I feel like the trend for wedding photography is just that. When we came across Studio 27 in our search, we were drawn to certain photos which we came to find out were all shot by Paytn. When we had our initial meeting, we were so happy that she was available for our wedding date. We booked our engagement shoot with Paytn as well and I highly recommend doing an engagement shoot with your photographer if you weren’t planning on one. From the minute we met her, we knew this was a perfect fit. She is super friendly, made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and is insanely creative and talented. She sent us a few sneak peeks right after the shoot and I was obsessed. She captured our personalities SO well in her photos and gave us exactly what we were looking for - candid, raw emotion. Come our wedding day, we knew her and her team were going to absolutely kill it. Paytn and Kunal (lighting assistant) were with me during the getting ready and Tony (second shooter) was with my husband. I had such crappy lighting in my hotel room, but she made it work and still captured some gorgeous photos of me. Throughout the whole day, it felt like we were just hanging out with our friends. The team was so easy going and an absolute pleasure to work with. Within two weeks, we got back over 5,000 photos. Paytn and Tony got so many beautiful photos of us, I don’t even know how we are going to choose our favorites. Their style of photography is very complimentary to one another and my husband had nothing but nice things to say about working with Tony. We also want to give a shoutout to Christina, our point of contact at Studio 27. She was an absolute delight to work with and was so kind and was sweet enough to wish us a happy wedding day and follow up after the wedding to check in with us. Studio 27 has a reputation for being one of the best on Long Island and they definitely deserve it.

You read many times that the SCM staff is absolutely incredible, and there is nothing more true! Ian is one of the kindest, caring, most thoughtful and passionate individuals I’ve ever met. From our finals meeting, we clicked and he has done absolutely anything he can to be sure we would have a special day. From setting up decor, to the ceremony running exactly on time, to encouraging guests to play our games and sign our guest book…. he does it all. Let me tell you from someone who was constantly on the fence about getting a DOC - you won’t need one with Ian. At least from the second you arrive at Sea Cliff. He wants to work with you to be sure it is a special day for you!! Camille was fabulous, bustling me all night, keeping us fed, reminding us to “mangia” Every server and bartender we came across was super personable and friendly. It was truly the happiest day of our lives!! They are the whole package. Responsive, caring and the kindest most genuine people and is so refreshing after touring so many other LI Venues that do not show the same level of care. You will not regret booking with Sea Cliff!!

One of the best decisions we made was to hire Desmond and team. They went above and beyond our expectations. They were so easy to work with. We had to postpone our wedding twice because of Covid-19, they were so accommodating. They did not only created a great video of our wedding, they also told our story. Desmond and team – thank you all again so much! You can hire a wedding videographer to capture your day but it is hard to find a great filmmaker to tell your story. Don't think twice, hire Desmond and his team let them capture your story, you won't regret it!

Oh my goodness - from the very first contact with Terri via email I knew I made the right decision contacting her . Terri is THERE FOR YOU the entire ride. Terri jumped in right away to help my fiancé and I secure our first look location which was not a typical location as we asked the pub we met at for our first date if we could use it. I am a high anxious person, detail orientated and wanted things to be PERFECT. That usually means I take care of everything myself but that is a no go with Terri. Terri listens actively to what you want and makes sure that happens. Her energy, her compassion around my stress and her absolute fiery passion that she has for the work she does makes her an 11/10. Our big day wouldn't have been the success it was without her!

  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Merrick, NY

NY Wedding Rabbi Lev Herrnson serves individuals and couples from Reform, Conservative and unaffiliated families. He has great sensitivity to the challenges of being Jewish in the modern world—because of his own Jewish journey and varied experiences--and therefore welcomes women and men from all walks of Jewish life. His philosophy reflects openness to innovation and respect for tradition. Rabbi Lev officiates at celebrations in the NY area and at destination locations.

We had the absolute pleasure of having Rabbi Lev officiate our wedding, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful, warm, and engaging presence to lead us through such a meaningful day. From the very beginning, he took the time to really get to know us meeting with us multiple times over Zoom and then in person leading up to the wedding. He made us feel seen and understood, and he helped shape a ceremony that felt uniquely “us.” As someone who had recently converted to Judaism, I was especially grateful for how inclusive and welcoming Rabbi Lev was not just to me, but to my entire family, many of whom were unfamiliar with Jewish traditions. He struck the perfect balance between spirituality, tradition, and accessibility, explaining the different elements of the ceremony in a light and meaningful way. He brought humor, warmth, and wisdom, and truly made everyone feel a part of the moment. We’re still getting compliments from family and friends about how special the ceremony was and how memorable Rabbi Lev made it. Rabbi Lev has a gift for creating connection, and we are so grateful to have had him with us for multiple deeply personal and joyful occasions. Don’t think twice about having him be part of your special moments you will be in the very best hands.

A wedding will not be complete in the absence of having beautifully arranged flowers. They do not only add color to the event, but they also signal the blossoming of a new life ahead of the couple. In the same way, flowers are important; it is also critical to choose the best Long Island florist to take care of the selection and arrangements. The florist has knowledge on the best wedding flowers New York to use, which will ensure making the right choice. Nonetheless, not all florists are the same in terms of the capabilities. To avoid ruining your wedding with bad flowers,

Jack & Rose Florist and Decorators did an amazing job with the flowers and decor for our wedding. Their communication throughout the planning process was always timely, kind, and clear - they responded quickly to emails and were very patient in answering all of my questions. The quality of their floral arrangements was just beautiful and thorough in every detail. They created gorgeous bouquets and boutonnieres for our wedding party that perfectly matched our color scheme. The memorial flowers placed in honor of our parents were crafted with care and looked lovely. The ceremony decor was simply stunning as well - they transformed our venue with floral arrangements and candles for a romantic ambiance that contributed so much warmth and beauty to our special day. We were thrilled with their services and would highly recommend Jack & Rose!

From the day we stepped in to tour and spoke with Lisa and John, we felt like family. We felt like they couldn’t wait to help us celebrate our special day. From planning, to communication, they were the best. Nothing ever felt stressful, and I believe that’s all because of how well organized they are. The team here does everything in their power to make sure your day is everything you have ever wanted. Fast forward to wedding day- with James as our maitre d/bridal attendant/what felt like our very own personal assistant for the day; our day was seamless from top to bottom. And the food? All of our guests have not stopped commenting how great it all was. It was the most memorable, best day ever. And we believe it all started at the hands of the team and the beauty of the environment at Stewart Manor Country Club! Thanks John, Lisa, James and the entire staff!

Hiring Unruffled was the best decision we did during our wedding planning process. Kritzie and Emily are experts in their field. They run their business with dedication and class. You can tell how passionate the two of them are. They were both so easy to communicate with. Unruffled created a full timeline of the day, handled all our vendor communication a month prior to the wedding (we utilized their day of coordination services), and even provided suggestions like finding a decor wall for our dream limoncello seating chart. Their services put us at ease leading up to the wedding and were incredibly helpful the day of. Because of Kritzie and Emily, my husband and I were able to feel like an actual guest at our wedding. The two of them handled everything behind the scenes and made sure everything aligned with their timeline. We worried about absolutely nothing the day of! Besides being good at what they do, Kritzie and Emily are both so personable and kind. We felt so comfortable with them since day 1 and it was so sad having our final debrief meeting after the wedding because we felt like they became friends through the process instead of just a one time vendor. Their day of efforts were beyond our expectations and even our family and friends at our wedding recognized their amazing work and attention to detail the day of. You won’t regret hiring Unruffled, I promise you!

Your wedding day is one of the most memorable days of your life, and I am so honored to be apart of it ! I always ensure you feel confident, radiant, and truly yourself. As a professional bridal hairstylist with 12+ years of experience, I specialize in creating personalized hairstyles that enhance your natural beauty. From romantic updos to glamorous waves, I take pride in providing an stress-free experience for every bride. Let’s work together to make your wedding day look everything you’ve dreamed of and more. I can’t wait to be a part of your love story!

Nina is the only person allowed to touch my hair…cut, color, or special occasion styling. She exudes professionalism. Her skill is unmatched. If you have a look in mind, she will execute it. If you can’t decide what look you’re going for, she will guide you and then ensure you look even better than you could have imagined yourself. She styled my hair for all of my bridal events- engagement party, bridal shower, and 2 events at my extremely hot and humid Dominican Republic destination wedding. On my wedding day my hollywood glam waves were absolutely perfect. They also did not move or fall at all. My hair is the kind that frizzes at the littlest bit of moisture in the air, but not on my big day thanks to Nina. She did my hair and that of 7 other women on my wedding day with complete ease. She was so fast that we were all done with time to spare for additional pictures. And everyone’s hair was a different style. Ever since my incredible wedding experience with her, I can’t even host or go to an event without her being on my glam team. The best part of working with Nina, besides ending up with perfect hair, is how sweet she is. She will make you feel at ease and make the getting ready process, which for me is usually stressful, relaxing and calming. Cannot wait to hire Nina again!

They also made my flower girls feel special & apart of the girls, which was so important to me ! The team truly was such a good time ! Wouldn't have wanted anyone else there for the morning of my wedding !

Will Castellanos Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Merrick, NY

Passionate about storytelling and as a wedding photographer with a deep love for capturing love stories in their most authentic and beautiful moments. For me, weddings aren’t just about posed smiles—they’re about the raw emotions, the stolen glances, and the little details that make each couple’s day uniquely theirs.

Will was incredible from start to finish. He made us feel so comfortable and was just a fun guy to have there with us taking pictures on our day. I didn’t even need to tell him what photos i wanted because he got them all! I would definitely recommend him and his team over and over. 10/10

We were at the showcase on 4/1/25. Everything was fabulous and solidified even more how happy we are that we booked with the Inn at New Hyde Park! We brought our very picky, Italian mothers with us and they were floored by everything; vendors, room, staff, food…everything was outstanding! Both moms fell in love with the cannoli girl and insisted we book her on the spot. Thank you, Lynne and your team! This showcase has made us so excited for our wedding on 4/10/26!
