Royalty Floral Design 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Riverbank, CA
  • Florist
  • Starts at $2,500

My floral aesthetic celebrates natural beauty-exposed stems, delicate movement, and romantic softness. I enjoy creating both small, simple pieces that feel intimate; and the large, dramatic installations that make a statement. My work can lean softly wild or elegantly refined, depending on the story we're telling. I would love to tell your story!

“Shann brought all of my floral dreams to life for my wedding—truly above and beyond what I imagined! She took my ideas and inspiration photos and made the entire process effortless. She even walked me through specific flower choices she felt would best capture my vision, and I absolutely loved every detail. I’ve not only trusted her with my wedding florals, but I’ve also worked with her on other major events, and her creativity always shines through in the centerpieces she designs. I can’t recommend her highly enough!”

On the day of, he demonstrated top-tier service, keeping us on schedule and ensuring the entire event ran smoothly. Their was not a second someone wasn't on that dance floor.

“The Century is an extremely beautiful venue that even pictures can't do justice! Erica Ford at The Century made everything SO easy!! Her organization and attention to detail on top of anticipating my needs because she's just THAT good, was beyond expectations! She kept me sane, helped me make my menu a complete dream (I am the only vegan amongst meat eaters), and accommodated every one of my (last minute) changes! She genuinely cared about us and our dream wedding and did everything she could to make our dreams come true! The chef, the banquet staff, the bar staff, security, everyone was so professional, on top of EVERYTHING, and made it so we had zero worries on our day. Our wedding day was a complete dream, and that's because of The Century and their amazing team of dedicated, professional, caring employees! Speaking of which, Leticia from Hand Creations Floral, their in house florist, brought my visions to life and moved me to tears with her execution! She was so easy to work with, understood our needs and vision with very minimal direction (I knew what I wanted but didn't always know how to vocalize it), and executed beyond my wildest dreams! My bouquet, which were the only flowers I had other than boutonnieres and corsages, exceeded my wildest dreams! The attention to detail, her ability to capture everything I wanted represented, and the sheer beauty could not have been accomplished with anyone else. I will sing the praises of The Century and their team from the rooftops! One of the best decisions we made for our wedding!”

From the very beginning she was attentive, communicative, and always kept me updated on everything. She really listened to what I wanted and somehow brought my vision to life exactly the way I imagined it. What honestly impressed me the most is that she managed to make everything look absolutely perfect despite all the weather chaos we had — rain, freezing cold, and even snow. Somehow she handled every single unexpected situation so calmly and professionally and made our day feel effortless and magical. She was genuinely my saving grace during our dream elopement, and I cannot recommend her enough”

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!”

We initially wanted to discuss breakfast catering options, but once we received highly detailed emails from Jennifer about her services we then decided to move forward with planning/catering/floral/furniture/signage/wedding cake/tastings/wine pairings and so much more. Cakewalk provided the perfect nature design/coordination, organic farm to table catering and custom cake design with dessert services for our special day. Jennifer is an absolute gem. She connected with us via phone and email multiple times leading up to the big day to plan a truly amazing wedding day. She asked us for our pinterest board, and she really listened to our ideas and concerns. Her emails were very detailed and consisted of multiple design boards. She was very organized and provided us with a comprehensive planning timeline. Jennifer incorporated two new entrees for our dinner service that were not in their original menu selection. During the tasting, she offered the highest degree of service. She also provided the wine pairings for each dish! Jennifer coordinated with all our vendors. She planned a day of coronation timeline that was perfectly executed and was flexible with any changes. She really has a caring eye for detail and made our dream wedding a reality! Our wedding party was intimate with 20 guests and Jennifer and her team really made everyone feel like royalty. We really don't know how we could have done any of this without her. 100/100 the best day of our lives.”

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.

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.

Photography has always been more than just photos to me. It’s freezing the little moments that end up meaning the most years later getting to tell people stories is something I’ll never take for granted. Behind every session is a girl who still gets excited every single time someone trusts her to capture their memories and honestly that feeling never gets old.

“From our first conversation, Payton Ophelia Photography made us feel at ease with her straightforward communication and quick responses to every question we had. On our wedding day, she went above and beyond by stepping in to curl my bridesmaid's hair when we fell behind schedule, then somehow still captured stunning photos in a tight timeframe. Her images are crisp and vibrant, with gorgeous attention to detail in every shot. We honestly felt like we hired both a photographer and a hairstylist rolled into one. Payton's willingness to help with the little things while delivering such clean, polished work made our day feel special and stress-free. We can't recommend her enough.”

We had a super colorful wedding (groom wore a floral blue suit) and she was just as excited about our plans as we were. She was also open to feedback on editing style (I really wanted high contrast), but honestly both our engagement photos and wedding photos were/ are everything. She worked great with our dog, captured our individual personalitlies and worked great with the group.

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 an event coordinator, I truly value vendors who are punctual, organized, and easy to work with — and this DJ exceeded expectations. He arrived on time, was well prepared, and kept the event running smoothly without anyone feeling rushed or stressed. The music was clean, family-friendly, and perfectly suited for the crowd. His professionalism and attention to timing made a huge difference in keeping the event on schedule and enjoyable for everyone. I would absolutely recommend him for any event needing a reliable and professional DJ.”
