When The Century advertisement popped up on my Facebook in December 2023, I knew I had to go and see it for my own eyes. A week later, I booked an appointment and first met with Crystal Brouwer. She gave me the tour, and I absolutely fell in love with the venue. Crystal was so patient, honest and understanding. I knew I had to book this venue, and lo and behold; May 25, 2024 was booked for me (and my fiance) of course. Then I met Tatiana Lopez. My coordinator, savior and all around superwoman. She coordinated our tasting, our floral appointments with decorations… I must have emailed her over 500 times. And she was so patient, understanding and she also alleviated any anxiety. All the small details, the big details, the details I didn’t even think of… she got it done! Chef Robert Root was in charge of our Buffett dinner. Our first tasting did not go as well, so we were able to do another one. Needless to say; the dinner was a success. (Guests would not stop complimenting the food.) The day of my wedding; Tatiana was there every step of the way. I would have forgotten to eat and drink if it weren’t for her! I blinked and I swear everything was going by so fast, and Tatiana was here to cue us and kept the timeline on track. Before I knew it, everything was packed and ready to go for us. It was all so flawless. And that is because of Tatiana! Thank you The Century team!l for making my wedding day dreams come true!

Hello! My name is Joseph, and I am a classically-trained pianist and vocalist. I have a B.M. in Piano Performance and have been a professional musician for over 20 years. I have experience as a liturgical musician in Catholic Churches and have worked as a Music Director in Methodist churches, so I am familiar with the religious/Christian repertoire.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hello! 2 weeks before our wedding, our initial pianist backed out. I was in a runt trying to find someone and was able to find Joseph. He immediately took control, which, is exactly what I needed. I gave him all information and he was able to get in contact with coordinators and church reps immediately without me having to worry. I wish we would have found him from the very beginning because he lifted so much stress off my shoulders. Also, he sounds and plays so effortlessly, which matched everything he did for us. Highly HIGHLY recommend, especially how hard it is to find someone in the central valley! Quality 100 percent all around. Thank you Joseph!

Lauren Elizabeth Imagery

Modesto, CA
  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,000

There is nothing more beautiful than a love story well told. Through the highs and lows of the past year of a pandemic, it is clear that love conquers all. The profound emotions, the small gestures and glances, the words of honesty and love shared are memories that will last a lifetime. I photograph weddings to highlight that connection, to ensure your feelings from that day can be looked back on and cherished forever.

Lauren Elizabeth Imagery is a dream to work with. I've shot many weddings with her over the years. Her communication style is relaxed, clear, humorous, efficient, and always positive. She puts everyone at ease throughout the day. Her images are distinctive, fresh, earthy, and emotional. She captures the story of a wedding in a way that feels ageless. Like a true artist, Lauren sees things in her clients (at weddings or portrait sessions) that others often miss. Additionally, Lauren gets along with everyone from all walks of life, from the smallest flower girls to grandparents, making her a joy to be around.

Kathryn Lewis Photography

Modesto, CA
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,500

Meet Kathryn: I began my career as a wedding photographer almost 15 years ago, first working for a renowned Bay Area wedding photographer, and then officially opening Kathryn Lewis Photography in 2014. I loved capturing intimate moments, getting (maybe overly) excited about good light, traveling to gorgeous places, and helping set up the perfect timeline and obsessing about the details so clients’ wedding days could be seamless and stress free. Being able to do that for so many amazing clients makes this such a dream. I'd love to meet you!

Kathryn is wonderful! We did our engagement photos with her as well as our wedding photos. She was so easy to work with, never once added to the stress of such an important day and gave us hundreds of beautiful photos. Four years into our marriage and I still have our album bookmarked on my browsers to flip through often. I highly recommend Kathryn for all your photo needs and hope to work with her for every special event in our future. She was flexible, intuitive and never once felt intrusive during our ceremony but managed to capture so many perfect shots.

DJ JA BOY 

5.0

Modesto, CA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $799

Character-driven DJ with 15+ years of experience. I honor families, lead with integrity and faith, keep the spotlight on the couple, and curate music that respects all ages and highlights love. I’m known for a calm, organized planning process that helps celebrations flow smoothly.

As a DJ myself—and someone who loves EDM and definitely has high expectations—I was honestly blown away. From the start, he carried himself with so much professionalism and humbleness, which really stood out. He took our favorite EDM tracks from the raves where my wife and I met and worked them into the night in a way that felt meaningful, not forced. At the same time, he somehow kept our families fully entertained… and they do not like EDM lol That balance is not easy, but he nailed it. He played those classic songs everyone knows but can never name, kept all generations engaged, and even helped our families appreciate our EDM instead of tuning it out. On top of the music, he was just a genuinely kind, humble person. You don’t always expect that level of humbleness from someone with this much talent. We’re so happy we booked him and couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our wedding.

As you can tell, sometimes choosing your photographer can be an overwhelming process. There are so many things to consider when narrowing it down to your perfect match. Of course, style and price are the main two, however, some couples forget that your photographer is the one person who is with you the most on your wedding or event day. That is why we offer complementary sessions to all our couples so we get to work together and create a bond. Instead of just being "the photographer" at your event, our goal is to capture beautiful images from your day and leave you with an experience that enhances your memories.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience! From start to finish, Wedding Times Film was an absolute dream to work with. They have an incredible eye for capturing not just moments, but emotions—every smile, tear, and laugh was documented so beautifully. The photos were beyond stunning—timeless, elegant, and so full of life. [Photographer’s Name] has this unique ability to make you feel completely at ease in front of the camera, which truly shines through in the natural and candid shots. Not only were they professional and attentive, but they also brought a calm and joyful energy to our wedding day, which made all the difference. We’ll cherish these photos forever and can’t thank them enough for perfectly capturing one of the most important days of our lives. If you’re looking for a talented, passionate, and reliable photographer, look no further—Wedding Times Film is amazing. Highly recommend!

I’m Carissa, a California-based wedding photographer specializing in true-to-color editing, candid documentary coverage, and natural, editorial-style portraits. My work focuses on real connection, emotional storytelling, and the in-between moments that define a wedding day. With more than a decade of experience, I photograph weddings with an intentional, relaxed approach that helps couples feel comfortable, authentic, and fully present. My husband, Tyler, joins me as our videographer, bringing the same warm, storytelling-driven style to every celebration.

Ethereal, candid, jovial, refined are some of the buzzwords that the images of our oak tree & hanging lights, spring evening, 100 person ranch wedding brings to mind. Carissa made sure to get an idea of our and our family's priorities and vision for our wedding day photography months in advance. As the day approached she nailed down specifics of timing and herding those dear to us to capture everything we wanted! She has an eye for catching family dynamics, sweet background moments, and her whole team is quick to drop to the floor to get the perfect golden hour angle, play with long exposure, or get some kids laughing! They coordinated wonderfully with our other vendors throughout the day on things like equipment positioning and audio capture. We knew we would love any photos of us as a couple on the happiest day of our lives, but the width of their professional and personal vision for the whole picture is what truly captured our hearts. Thank you Dugonis for loving on us!

They arrived early to set up, started playing as guests arrived, and provided beautiful music for our ceremony and cocktail hour.

Jess was beyond amazing and made our day so special. It was incredible how beautiful our pictures turned out and she captured everything I could have ever imagined and beyond. It was actually quite impressive looking through the wedding album after we received it because Jess seemed like she was everywhere all of the time. She captured every moment sometimes with different angles and I am so grateful to be able to relive our wedding day while looking through the photos. I thought I would regret not having a videographer but Jess truly captured everything from start to finish and that the day just comes back to life when I look through all of the photos. As she captured our wedding day she was soooo very patient with my husband and I, our family, and all our friends. Everyone spoke so highly of her after our wedding and really appreciated having a relaxed, caring, funny, kind, and professional photographer. She also helped me while getting ready and truly made it so I could fully enjoy my wedding. I also asked her to shoot my graduation photos and lets just say I don't think I will ever inquire for a different photographer. I am looking forward to continuing to have her capture precious moments in my life for as long as she continues photography.

I work to build a true friendship with you to create trust which aids in gorgeous photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Natalie as our photographer for our wedding was like working with your best friend (I'm serious). She made us laugh the entire time, got just as excited as I did (if not more) over details for the flat lay, and was the perfect match for my husband's sarcasm. What more could you want in a photographer? What drew me, initially, to Natalie was her bright and light photos that captured candid moments beautifully. My husband and I have a very fun-loving personality and to find a photographer that captured every laugh was an instant-win. Natalie took our engagement photos and our wedding photos and we could not be happier, as every photo was absolutely amazing and told a story throughout the engagement session and wedding. I will always look back on these photos with the biggest smile on my face, because they are simply beautiful. You can tell that she is painstakingly meticulous in curating the perfect gallery for you and that she loves her couples. If you're thinking of hiring Natalie for your wedding, do not hesitate. She was an absolute dream to work with and I hope we can work together in the future!

Hiring Hillarie was the best decision I could have made for my wedding. I had a wedding at a venue she had never been to, and was a little nervous about her not being familiar with the grounds. My nerves were silly because she absolutely killed it. She over delivers and is the sweetest calm in the chaos. I wish I could relive my wedding day over and over, including having her there. I am so happy I went with her.

The Tipsy Hellcat was born from my love of creating experiences that feel fun, personal, and totally on-vibe. I’m a mobile dry-hire bartender who specializes in crafting custom menus, thoughtful details, and bar setups that match your wedding’s unique style — whether you’re planning something elegant, alternative, whimsical, or bold. I’m passionate about making the process easy, stress-free, and exciting for couples. Your bar should feel like you, and I love helping bring that vision to life with creativity, warmth, and a little bit of Hellcat magic.

We booked The Tipsy Hellcat to bring a hot cocoa bar to our Christmas party at Main Street Tattoo, and it was honestly incredible. She showed up early, handled every detail, and created the cutest setup that fit perfectly with our shop’s holiday vibe. Our team and clients loved it. Whether you need a mobile bartender or a specialty drink bar, she delivers every time. We’ll definitely be inviting her back for future shop events!
