Philmont, NY
  • Caterer
  • Starts at $100

Recognized as the Best Chef in Columbia County for 2015 and 2016, as well as the recipient of the Fourth Annual Victoria A. Simons Locavore Award in 2013, Chef Josephine Proul embarked on her journey with Local 111 in 2008. Freshly graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Culinary Arts from the New England Culinary Institute, she returned to Philmont, NY, becoming Local's Chef and General Manager. In 2014, when the previous owners passed the torch, Josephine eagerly embraced the challenge of ownership with open arms. "It's a destination for Philmont."

“The communication with Local 111 was impeccable - everything was clear and uniform throughout the entire process. The Local 111 staff put their all into the quality of the work they delivered, and it truly showed. From the starters to the buffet style dinner, Local 111 certainly delivered, with the presentation and flavors of each dish having our guests raving about how wonderful everything was. I would highly recommend using Local 111 for any event - not only do you get high-quality, farm-to-table food, but the staff are just as amazing to work with as well.”

“Black Walnut Farm is an unbelievable venue that far exceeded our expectations for our wedding. Beyond the incredible property, the owners are excellent to work with from your first tour to even after your event. To start, the barn and the surrounding grounds look incredible and are so beautifully manicured. So many of our guests complimented the venue. The staff also blended very seamlessly with our caterer. We used Bridge Creek Catering, who were unbelievably on top of it, and between the venue and the caterers there wasn’t a single hiccup. Sarah’s day-of coordination definitely tied everything together and gave us a ton of confidence that event would run smoothly. We rented a tent for our reception and had it placed on the main lawn. The scene behind us, wild grass and a line of trees, is absolutely stunning in our photos. And the ceremony space in the woods is honestly magical. The farmhouse on the property, where the wedding party can stay for the duration of their weekend, is so comfortable and classic. The MASSIVE fireplace in the parlor is so amazing. And who doesn’t love a hot tub? We can’t say enough good things about Black Walnut.”

Eddie was easy to communicate with, and was there for us through the whole experience from beginning to end. The second it was dance time, they got the crowd up and out onto the dance floor in a heartbeat, and most didn’t leave the dance floor until the night was over. DJ was good, knew what songs to play, when to play them, and played the ones I wanted. And the emcee was awesome, funny & easily able to get people involved in whatever!!

I’m Matthew, a documentary wedding photographer based in Garrison, NY. I’ve photographed weddings for a decade, alongside a 15-year teaching career. The classroom shapes how I work: I meet every situation with empathy, plan carefully with you beforehand, and stay calm when the day gets busy. About 90% of my coverage is candid. I blend in and witness what unfolds, then step in with light direction for family photos and portraits. Couples tell me they forgot I was there, and my favorite compliment is that guests thought I was a family member with a camera. I work with all couples and celebrate every kind of love.

Beyond his amazing presence, his work speaks for itself. The photos left us absolutely speechless. Every image looked like it belonged in a magazine, yet still felt so personal and full of heart. He captured the perfect balance of candid moments and thoughtful details, each shot filled with genuine emotion and artistry. You can feel the love and care he pours into his work. Matthew is such a rare soul, unbelievably talented, but also deeply good-hearted. We’ll cherish these photos forever and will always be so grateful that he was the one who captured our day. He’s not just highly recommended, he’s a must-hire for your wedding or any event where you want stunning, heartfelt photos that truly tell your story.”

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Philmont, NY

Jesse and Justin have been playing music together since they met performing in a band at Disneyland in 2001. After moving to Beacon, NY around the same time, it made sense to start an official wedding music business to share their love of music with some of the many happy couples getting married in the Hudson Valley. One thing they love about playing music for weddings is the variety that is required of them. Every gig is different and they all happen on one of the happiest days of the clients' lives!

Awarded Best of Zola
“Justin was a pleasure to work with from the initial interview to the last song at our wedding. Justin played with a three piece band for our ceremony (guitar, piano, bass) and cocktail hour (saxophone, piano, bass) and then DJ'd our reception. Justin made sure that the music played at our wedding and cocktail hour was tailored to specifically match the vibe of our dinner playlist. He even surprised us by playing one of our favorite Herbie Hancock tunes during cocktail hour. The vibe of the live jazz trio during cocktail hour was a perfect transition over to dinner. Justin then switched over to DJ our dinner and reception afterwards. He played all the right songs to keep the dance floor flowing all night. If you are seeking a combination of live music and DJ at your wedding I would highly recommend Skylark Music.”

“From our first interaction with Valentino Entertainment, LLC, we were impressed by their thorough, relaxed, and reassuring communication style. Paul and his team provided a truly professional experience, with top-notch equipment and amazing value for the services they delivered. They worked tirelessly as our hard-working entertainers, genuinely caring about making our special day a blast. The reception environment was such an active party - at one point, I went back to the head table to get water and no one was sitting, as people were fully dancing or enjoying the music from the sidelines. Even when we had to make some last-minute changes to the day's details, Paul was able to roll with it seamlessly, even practicing our long last name until he got it right. The remainder of the reception was an absolute blast, with people dancing through the entire end of the night. It was truly the best day and party we could have had, and we would hire Valentino Entertainment, LLC again in a heartbeat. The photobooth was also a great value-add.”

Lynette, was especially skilled at organizing our family photos - she remained calm and collected, able to wrangle everyone without breaking a sweat or getting frustrated. The entire Pioneer Media team was dedicated and focused, capturing all the special moments of our day with care. The final images and photo booth prints were great. We are so grateful to have chosen Pioneer Media to document our special day.”

“Mikayla and her team provided amazing hair and makeup services for myself and my bridal party for my wedding! I did a trial with them about 2 months before my wedding so I could see what looked best with my hair and complexion, and create the vision I had in mind for my bridal look. They were both so nice and heard what I had to say and worked with me to create the look I wanted. On the day of, they were super organized to get through each member of my bridal party in the time we had allotted. I didn’t have strict styles in mind for the other girls, so they were able to work with the variety of inspo. pictures my bridesmaids brought and made a beautiful and cohesive set of looks on each girl. They worked with various different hair and skin types easily and when my mother-in-law had a relatively-last minute request to use hair extensions, they were super flexible to be able to provide that service as well. Iris Beauty’s skilled and reliable team created beautiful looks for all of us on my wedding day, I highly recommend them to any future brides!”

Hi! I am a professional makeup artist specializing in bridal! I have been in the wedding industry since 2018 and loving every second of it. I am so grateful for each and every one of my brides that trust my team and I on their big day!

“If you’re reading this, just do it. Book Gabby as your makeup artist because you won’t regret it. One of the best decisions I made in my wedding planning era. Gabby has been so amazing from the moment I booked her up until the wedding day. She was so sweet and easy to work with, she made me feel comfortable and understood my vision. I barely ever wear makeup but when I looked in the mirror after my trial I felt SO BEAUTIFUL. She knew what I was talking about, when I said Natural but elevated and was so open to any feedback or things I wanted to change. The day of the wedding she was our superhero. My mom had fallen a few days before the wedding and her face had scratches and cuts. Of course we couldn’t put makeup on any open wounds but she worked with my mom and made her feel calm and assured her she would look beautiful. My mom and I are so grateful for Gabby, my mom looked amazing. She made us both feel and look so beautiful. My makeup was flawless, and lasted all night I didn’t want to take it off by the end of the night. THANK YOU for everything, for bringing good vibes, making myself, my girls, and my mom feel and look SO BEAUTIFUL. once my wedding photos come back I’ll send more!!”

“We had our wedding at Kindred Creeks at the beginning of May 2022. I have so many great things to say about this place! First off, Jill was extraordinary, caring, attentive and so helpful from start to finish. She was able to work within our budget while keeping our dream wedding a reality. She had rain plans, sunny day plans, plans for more or less people and was thorough throughout. Her father, Gerry, who lives in the farm came out the day before and day of the wedding to make sure we were taken care of and that anything we needed would be done. And the tent staff was kind, courteous and officiant! The grounds itself were gorgeous! We were the first to use the airstream bridal suite which got so many compliments and great photos. They also redid the bridge across the creek for the wedding party to walk over during the ceremony. I fell in love with the green barn and even though it needs to come down soon, they held off construction so we could take pictures in front of it. We got married right where the two creeks meet which was so beautiful. All our guest had nothing be great things to say and we are beyond happy with the experience. If you are thinking of taking a tour of the farm, don’t hesitate! You will fall in love just like we did!”

“From the very beginning, Scott and The Music Boutique were an absolute pleasure to work with. Music was such an important part of our wedding day, and Scott truly took the time to get to know us. He really listened to our wants and needs, and personalized every detail for both the ceremony and cocktail hour. It never felt like a "one-size-fits-all" experience - he made everything feel uniquely us. One thing that really stood out throughout the planning process was how responsive and attentive Scott was. Every conversation we had mattered, and he genuinely remembered the details we discussed, making us feel heard and confident that our vision was in the best hands. The live strings added such an elegant and emotional touch to our ceremony and cocktail hour. Walking down the aisle to beautifully performed live music is a moment we'll never forget, and so many of our guests commented on how incredible the musicians were. The cocktail hour music created the perfect atmosphere and tied everything together beautifully. Everything was executed flawlessly, allowing us to simply be present and enjoy every moment of our wedding day. If you're looking for live music that will truly elevate your wedding, I cannot recommend The Music Boutique enough. Scott and his musicians brought so much beauty, elegance, and personality to our wedding, and we are incredibly grateful they were part of such a special day.”

“The Views at Mt Fuji was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, Pia was attentive and incredibly helpful in guiding us through the planning process. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful, with a traditional Japanese aesthetic. Everyone loved the food (and many thought that our spread at the cocktail hour was actually dinner!). Throughout the event, the staff ensured we were well taken care of, always making sure we had food and drinks at our loveseat table. The best part is that so much of the decoration, cake, and other includes are already taken care of, which let us focus on other things. Very, very happy with Pia and Mt. Fuji!”
