We found MATS at a friends wedding and knew right away that we wanted them to be our wedding band! They were both affordable as an 8 piece band (but you have many options) & amazing having the wedding guests on the dance floor the entire night! Marlon coordinated everything with us and made it very easy with a template he already built. We let them choose the songs with a few do not play lists. They even let us customize the night including a song they learned for us by our request, singing happy birthday to my maid of honor, & letting my father in law sing a song with the band.

He takes such clean, beautifully edited photos that we will treasure forever. Bogdanov took the time to walk us through different photo positions and locations around our venue, helping us get creative shots that captured the essence of our special day. We are thrilled with the final results and would highly recommend Bogdanov Photography to any couple looking for an experienced, professional photographer who goes above and beyond.

Working with Wedding Studio Pro was an absolute pleasure. Their communication style was open, fast, and professional from our very first interaction. The quality of their work was truly remarkable - the photos they captured are beautiful, detailed, creative, and artistic. They were patient with us throughout the planning process and maintained open communication, which helped make our special day even more special. The owner is clearly very passionate about his craft, and his dedication shone through in the exquisite, breathtaking photos that take us back to when my husband and I made our love official. It really was a magical, Harry Potter-esque experience that we will cherish forever.

I cannot recommend Sarah enough! While I initially thought I just needed someone for the “day of,” I quickly realized how much goes into wedding coordination in the weeks and months leading up to the big day—and Sarah was there every step of the way. She went so far above and beyond what I ever expected, and I truly don’t know how I would have gotten through the wedding planning process, or the actual day, without her. From the moment we started working together, Sarah brought a sense of calm, professionalism, and thoughtfulness to everything. She is kind, incredibly organized, detail-oriented, and somehow manages to be both relaxed and hard-working at the same time. Every detail was thought through, every vendor was communicated with, and every little hiccup was handled before I even had time to worry about it. On my wedding day, I was able to be fully present and soak it all in, because I knew Sarah had everything under control. If you’re on the fence about whether you need a day-of coordinator, don’t overthink it—hire Sarah. She is a true gem, and you’ll be so glad to have her in your corner.
