You will have time to connect and build a relationship with me and I who will be there with you during your wedding day. Although I am not your typical neighborhood florist, my prices are still average but I create luxury with my skills. Minimal investment for full service wedding start from $5000 A-la-carte service minimum investment start from $500 I will be glad to make your wedding beautiful and magical!

Awarded Best of Zola
Sofya is the best—& I mean, the actual best. I’m a huge stickler for flowers, truly the pickiest person when it came to them. There are plenty of high end florists that will do the same stereotypical floral designs. But not Sofya. I looked long & hard at many florists before picking her and I could not be happier. Not only does she have the best eye for design, but also, she has high standards for the quality of flowers she chooses. Her work was truly beautiful and better than I could have ever imagined. She really does pay such close attention to detail to make your look perfect. I cannot say better things about her, or her work.

  • Photographer
  • Classic style

Hi, I’m Kaylea! A photographer driven by emotion, storytelling, and the quiet beauty found in everyday moments. I began taking photography seriously in 2023! I've had the opportunity to work on my art and grow as a person!

From our first conversation, Kaylea was incredibly responsive and made sure she understood exactly what we wanted for our wedding day. Her communication style made us feel heard, and she delivered timeless photos that exceeded our expectations. She has a gift for capturing those fleeting moments with our newborn that we'll treasure forever, and we received our edited photos faster than we anticipated. What impressed us most was how she took the time to really listen to our vision and executed it perfectly. We've already booked her for our baby's first birthday shoot because we trust her so completely. If you want someone who genuinely cares about preserving your special moments, Kaylea is the photographer to hire.

This venue is the most amazing venue I toured while planning. It’s was absolutely stunning and everything I wanted in a venue. The venue coordinator is very nice, however, at times it was very difficult to get in touch with her. There is no staff to cover if she happens to be out of the office (which made it stressful as it closer to my wedding). Overall, I would recommend this venue for any celebration. I also loved that I had to option to bring all of my decor and vendors. My overall experience was a good one. My wedding was beautiful and everything turned out great.

Venue considerations

  • Not for you if you're looking for a sleek and contemporary space
  • No in-house lighting and sound packages available
My husband and I recently got married at The Union Exchange and had the most magical days of our lives. I don't even know where to begin! I have been going to The Union Exchange market since it opened in 2022 and ever since my first day on the property, I felt at home. Growing up in rural Pennsylvania, there was familiarity to it with the rural charm and wooded trails. As I watched the property grow over the years and saw all the hard work they put in to making it a beautiful wedding venue, I knew deep down that this where my husband and I would get married. The staff at The Union Exchange are one of a kind. From day one, Kelly and Kacie were detailed oriented and provided helpful insight when making decisions, but never were pushy when it came to discussing add ons. Donna is sunshine personified and brought such a light to the meetings throughout the process. The day of the wedding was smooth and seamless and much of that had to do with the hard work of the venue team. The property itself is unlike any other venue we toured! It has the perfect blend of elegance and rustic charm, without feeling too barn-y. It's truly serene. We utilized the Full Farm Package so we had our ceremony in the Pine View Forest and reception at the Auction Barn, with cocktail hour at their stand alone bar, Splinters. One thing to note is the property is very large so there was some walking required throughout the day (for guests), but they are more than accommodating for people who need assistance! I HIGHLY recommend the Pine View Forest for the ceremony site. The lighting coming in through the trees was magical with the fall colors! You cannot go wrong with any location on the property for ceremony, but there really is something enchanting about the forest. The addition of the vintage furniture included in our package also added an element of elegance that perfectly matched the vibe we were going for. A HUGE perk of this venue was the addition of the AirBnBs on the property. We had the bridal party stay the night of the wedding and it worked out perfectly! My husband and I plan to come back on our anniversary and stay at the glamping cabin we stayed in on the night of our wedding which is such a special option to have that you don't get with many other venues. The bottom line - this venue is magical. The staff treats you like family to make it the wedding day of your dreams. I00/10 recommend!

I started my small business as a side job to earn extra income as I raised my children as a stay at home mom. Little did I know at that time how successful we would grow as a family and business owners. This business is so important to my family and I because just like we love watching our family grow, we love even more being apart of the start to another family’s growth. We enjoy doing all types of event cakes, but specialize in custom wedding cakes. We are fondant making, homemade cake baking, chocolate artists and so much more. We offer more than just cakes as well. You can check us out for customizable apparel, balloon art, etc

Top tier was gluten free for my husband and the bottom 2 were regular for the guests. Gorgeous naked cake with whipped vanilla frosting that was sooooo delicate and light, not overly sweet, filled with raspberry jam. I'm not really a cake person but WOW did I eat so much of her cake! YUM!

Lem LeRoy, the wedding officiant, was a real pleasure to work with. My husband and I were really nervous about choosing an officiant for our wedding because we didn't know what to expect, but Lem made the entire process easy and seamless. He was very thorough, asking all the right questions to understand what we wanted our day to be like. Lem always followed up with us and made sure we knew what we needed when it came to the marriage license, taking that stress off our plate. He also made sure the ceremony was exactly what we wanted it to be, changing anything we asked him to. Lem took the time to get to know us better, which really shone through in the personalized ceremony he created. We are so grateful to Lem for helping make our wedding day special and memorable.

I had my dream wedding at Meadowview Events. This is a gorgeous venue in a beautiful location with an outdoor ceremony site, separate cocktail hour location, and a large reception space. The venue also offers ample space in both the bridal and groom suites and an extensive list of approved vendors that was very helpful as we started planning our big day. We chose not to have a wedding planner, but the venue does require a day-of coordinator. They will provide this service, but there are certainly some particularities that they have about the venue, so I would recommend asking questions about everything you are planning to ensure if meets their requirements and advocate for what you want. I was told a handful of times that what I wanted “wasn’t what was typical” but once I advocated for it, there was no issue making my vision come to life. There were some times I felt like the need to question and advocate for what I wanted led to added stress during the planning process, but nothing too extreme to not make it worth having our day at this beautiful space. After months of planning, the day of staff was very attentive and worked well with family and vendors to ensure everything was in place and taken care of and that our day ran smoothly. As you plan your special day at this venue, make sure to discuss, ask questions, and advocate for your vision with the owner to ensure that your vision becomes a reality while staying within the requirements and guidelines of the venue.

From the first day we reached out to Brian about his DJ services all the way through our wedding day he was absolutely outstanding! The app was an awesome way to communicate and my husband and I had a blast sitting down to dig through our Spotify playlists and add songs to it. On the day of, Brian was incredibly attentive, adjusting music when it needed to be and throwing in some of his own flair that made for such a memorable night. Everyone was on the dancefloor having the best time and the mixes/mashups he created were so so good. We would recommend Brian to anyone looking for the best wedding DJ (and actually have already, one of my bridesmaids recently got engaged and Brian was my first vendor recommendation).

Hi! I’m Steph, owner and lead wedding planner of SC Signature Celebrations, and your personal stress reliever. I’m a former educator turned wedding planner. I love balancing my creative spirit with my logistical expertise to make peoples’ dream days come true. After 8 years of event planning, I decided to focus on weddings because I’m passionate about creating lifelong memories. I’m here to collaborate with you on creating your dream wedding day!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we started planning almost two years before our wedding, Steph completely understood our vision. She never tried to steer us toward what a wedding "should" look like—instead, she encouraged us to create a day that felt authentic to us, even when our choices were a little unconventional. Having someone who genuinely supported what *we* wanted made the entire planning process so much less stressful. She also somehow managed to talk me through every single one of my little wedding planning menty b's. Whether I was spiraling over tiny details or showing up with what felt like completely unhinged ideas or last-minute thoughts, she never made me feel like I was being ridiculous. She listened, reassured me, and somehow always found a way to make me feel calm and confident again. Having someone who could balance professionalism with that level of kindness and patience made all the difference. The greatest gift Steph gave us was our wedding day. I can honestly say I have no idea if anything went wrong, because if it did, we never knew about it. My husband and I were able to be fully present with each other and soak in every moment. We never left each other's side, and at one point we even snuck away during the reception for a little nap because we were feeling overstimulated. Instead of worrying about timelines, logistics, or putting out fires, we got to experience the day exactly as we had hoped: together. It wasn't until days and even weeks after the wedding that we learned some guests had opinions about a few of our non-traditional choices, like not taking formal photos with every single guest or taking time for ourselves during the reception. The fact that we didn't know any of that in the moment is a testament to Steph. She protected our peace and made sure we stayed in our own little magical bubble all day long. Looking back, that's what stands out the most. Our wedding wasn't perfect because everything went exactly according to plan—it was perfect because we got to be completely present with each other, free from stress and outside expectations. That is an incredible gift, and one we'll always be grateful for. Steph is so much more than an amazing wedding planner. After nearly two years of planning together, she's become a friend, and I can't imagine having gone through this journey with anyone else. If you're looking for someone who will truly listen, advocate for your vision, calm your anxieties, embrace your wild ideas, and make sure you actually get to enjoy your wedding day, Steph is the person you want by your side.
