Hi :) I have a background in social work so am used to walking into all kinds of situations and interacting with all sorts of people. I now have my dream job as a wedding photographer where I get to capture people's very best moments!!! Not only do I love capturing those candid moments but I also enjoy guiding loved ones through interacting together to come up with more natural moments to capture actual good times! To help the day run as smoothly as possible we also send out a wedding photography survey going over times and shot details to make sure we are on the same page ahead of time, with wanted poses on this list as well.

Awarded Best of Zola
AR Treasures Photography was wonderful to work with on our wedding day. They were very responsive via text and email, making communication easy leading up to the big day. The quality of their work was good - they captured so many fun candids and beautiful outdoor shots that really highlighted the unique elements of our celebration. They perfectly captured a surprise horse and carriage ride, as well as special details like the dried leaves from our flower girl, maple helicopter seeds, and the groom playing on a seven-piece drum set. Rachel was lovely to work with and went the extra mile to ensure we were satisfied with the final photos from our wedding. I'd recommend communicating any important or unique details you want captured, as they'll make sure those special moments are preserved beautifully.

Hearth Patisserie 

5.0

Rocky River, OH
  • Cakes & desserts
  • Starts at $500

Hearth cakes and pastries are based in French technique and method but with a more American take on flavor. It is a mesh of the best two aspects of classic American and French desserts. The cakes tend to have a more whimsical or natural feel to the design.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hearth Patisserie was a fantastic choice for our wedding desserts. From the start, Holly were quick to respond to our inquiries and very easy to work with, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. On the day of the wedding, the desserts were an absolute hit - the macarons in particular were delicious and our guests raved about them. In fact, there were hardly any leftovers at the end of the night, which is a testament to how much everyone enjoyed the treats. The set-up was beautiful as well! We're so glad we went with Hearth Patisserie and would highly recommend them to any couple looking for top-notch wedding cakes and desserts!

Bill was our photographer for our wedding in October. He came highly recommended by our wedding officiant. He is fantastic and my bride and I are very happy !!!! It was the second wedding for both of us so Bill was well prepared for our wants and needs on the day of our wedding. During our ceremony he was so stealthy we didn't know he was there. This allowed Bill to take many spontaneous photos. The photos were beyond our expectations !! We just picked up our album that Bill made and it is beyond our expectations !! Bill is very artistic and welcomed our input in finalizing the album. I wish Zola would allow a 10-Star rating because Bill is a 10 !!!

Scratch Bakery 

5.0

Rocky River, OH
  • Cakes & desserts
  • Starts at $3

Scratch Bakery began in 2016, as my passion for baking grew into a full time “job.” I enjoy working with my clients to create the perfect treats for their occasions. My main focus is taste, taste, taste - using quality ingredients and made all from scratch. If something looks wonderful, but doesn’t taste good, I do not use it. Part of the reason I began baking and decorating was due to unmet expectations. I don’t ever want my clients to feel as though they didn’t receive what they were hoping for.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jill at Scratch bakery truly brought our vision for wedding desserts to life! We wanted more than just a standard wedding cake and had unique flavors in mind, she was positive and excited to work with us to make our “his and hers favorites” dessert table a realty. In addition to our two tiered wedding cake (that was maple bacon bourbon flavored and AMAZING!), Scratch also handled all of the sweets for our dessert table which included over 250 mini cupcakes in fun flavors such as salted caramel, wedding cake, chocolate peanut butter and red velvet. We also had chocolate chip cookies, key lime pie bars and her famous Carmelita’s (they are to die for). We use Scratch Bakery for all our family birthdays and special occasions now, truly such a memorable part of our wedding day that guests still talk about three years later.

Rocky River, OH
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,900

I'm a photojournalist turned wedding photographer and loving it. I enjoy capturing moments and working my butt off all day long. Worked for newspapers and magazines for many years. The demands put on me by photo editors helped me grow and I find that bride and grooms are much nicer.

Scott Shaw Photography is an exceptional wedding photography vendor that I have had the privilege of working with on a couple of occasions. As an effective communicator, Scott provides clear direction and guidance throughout the wedding day to ensure the process runs smoothly. Rather than simply capturing a mass amount of images, Scott's work is characterized by quality over quantity, with a thoughtful, editorial-style approach that is a joy to experience. Scott's ability to utilize creative angles, demonstrate intentionality, and showcase his artistry is truly distinguishing. If you are seeking a top-tier photographer who is also an amazing human being, I highly recommend booking Scott Shaw Photography for your special day.

Donauschwaben's German-American Cultural Center was the perfect venue for our daughter & son-in-law’s wedding. The location to the airport, highway and hotel were ideal. Their property provided plenty of parking. The wedding was outside on a 92 day and was flawless. It was hot, but the trees were in the perfect position to shade the entire patio. The entire staff was amazing. The reception space was transformed into a beautiful space for our special celebration. Our family and friends shared with us how delicious the appetizers, meal and “aftertizers” of the homemade pretzels. Christine the Event Manager went above and beyond and made sure the day was special for everyone. She answered all of my questions, even up to the last minute. We were so impressed with how many times Christine checked in with us to make sure we were happy. We highly recommend Donauschwaben’s German-American Cultural Center.

Hi! My name is Andrea and I'm the owner and lead designer here at The Flower Petal! I've been in this industry for about 7 years and I absolutely love what I do. I would describe my design style as loose/organic with a mix of whimsical and romantic. I LOVE color and getting the chance to work with more unique color palettes is my absolute favorite thing!

The Flower Petal was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From our first interaction, Andrea and her team were incredibly timely, thorough, and friendly in their communication. Their floral design was truly visionary - the bouquets, centerpieces, and ceremony decor they created were Pinterest-board worthy and absolutely stunning. They were true floral experts, paying meticulous attention to every detail to bring our vision to life. Andrea and her team were punctual for set up, had the most beautiful arrangements, and even added extra special touches like arranging the bridesmaid bouquets for detail shots and sprinkling extra petals in the ceremony space. They went above and beyond, returning at the end of the evening to collect the rental items so we didn't have to. The Flower Petal provided the best customer experience, were fairly priced, and truly made our wedding day dreams come true.

I could not more highly recommend Kristen! Kristen was one of the very first vendors that I booked for my August 2024 wedding and I could not be more happy in that decision. Kristen's style is timeless and true to color. She focuses on capturing the day as it happens rather than focusing only on super posed shots- which I love! Kristen's communication is clear, prompt, and honest- I so appreciated her insight through the wedding planning process and especially in developing the timeline. We also received far more sneak peeks than we expected and I'm still shocked with how quickly we received our full gallery! Kristen, we are so happy you were there to capture our day!

Originally built in the early 1900s for luxury faucet manufacturing, the 22,000 square foot warehouse sat empty for decades. The creative potential of the location caught our eye, and in 2016, we went to work to renovate the building. As event vendors ourselves, we designed The Madison to be the best parts of every cool venue we’ve ever worked from Seattle to New York City and Chicago to the Caribbean. In 2018, we reopened the restored space The Madison. We quickly gained acclaim from the area’s top event planners, community collaborators, and even local professional athletes. As Northeast Ohio’s premier event venue, our mission is to cultivate human connection and life’s treasured moments. You’ll find it effortless to work with us and within the space so you can focus more on your goals – and your guests.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Classic, vintage atmosphere

  • Multiple event spaces

Venue considerations

  • Venue feels large for events with small guest lists
  • Limited cleanup and setup services
  • Lighting and sound are not included
Awarded Best of Zola
Being in the event industry ourselves, we knew finding a team of key partners to work with would be pivotal to success for our wedding. Anthony and Daryl at The Madison knocked it out of the park. We wanted a fun, unique and industrial-vibe venue and this venue provides all that and so much more. It is a blank canvas that truly allows you to turn it into whatever your vision may be. The service, ideas, and personal attention the team at The Madison give each event is incredible. From our first meeting with them, we knew they were the team for us to create a successful and memorable wedding. They offer a variety of bar package tiers to fit your budget and are able to accommodate custom / signature drinks for an additional personal touch. The bar staff they provide are true sweethearts. When it comes to load in / setup, they are there to not only help you, but are willing to accommodate anything and everything you may need. The venue offers a variety of different spaces to accommodate everything from a cocktail hour, ceremony, reception and outdoor spaces all at one venue. Truly, everything you could ask for. There are a handful of preferred caterers they work well with to provide anything you could need from a catering perspective. The venue is a blank slate, and with that, allows you to add your own creativity to develop the event you vision. Ample amount of available electric also allows for pretty much any level of production you are looking to host here. The venue is great, but - as mentioned above - it is the people who truly build your team. The two gentlemen who run this facility (Anthony and Daryl) are the ones behind the magic here. They honestly care and have your event’s best interest in mind. They are willing to step in and assist on anything needed and are truly team players when it comes to building your vendor team. Thank you to the two of you for making our wedding dreams come true. — Jeff & Cierra

I booked C-Town Entertainment at the recommendation of another bride, and I was so happy with Bob and his assistant! I may be biased, but ours was one of the most fun weddings I have been to. Everything ran smoothly and Bob did a great job reading the room and picking songs that brought people to the dance floor whenever needed. He checked in with me and my family/bridal party throughout the evening and made last minute adjustments as needed. He was professional and made sure we had all the moments and songs that we wanted. I have been to weddings with DJs who were not as skilled and it makes a big difference in the flow and energy of the evening. My guests started chanting “one more song!” at the end of the evening, and I think that says it all. I cannot thank you all enough for the care you put into our wedding!

Alyssa Schlegel, the wedding florist, was an absolute pleasure to work with. From the very beginning, her communication was exceptional - she responded to my messages and questions lightning fast, and really took the time to understand my vision for the flowers, even when I struggled to fully articulate it. The end result was beyond my wildest dreams - I have received so many compliments about the flowers she provided, which blossomed beautifully and looked incredible. Alyssa even went above and beyond, traveling to me and helping put together an additional bouquet when my sister from Guam surprised me and joined my bridesmaids.

We can’t say enough nice things about this place! Most importantly to us was the excellent communication at every step of the planning process. The space is warm, somewhat (but not overly) fancy, reasonably priced, and welcoming to any size party. Lake Affect gave us a vibe so special it made my dad cry, but never feeling “formal” - aka stuffy. Our only warning to other couples is to plan for extra lighting in the ceremony space. We were VERY impressed with Stefanie’s problem solving ability when vendor issues came up on the day of the rehearsal. LGBTQ friendly as well!

I’m Yevhen Gulenko. I take photographs and make films. My wife, Julie, and I built Human Artist Photo + Cinema to capture weddings as they are—real and fleeting. I was born in Kyiv, came to the U.S. in 2002, and now I’m a husband and father of two.

Working with Human Artist Photography & Cinematic was hands-down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning—our engagement session—to the very last moments of our wedding day, their team went above and beyond to deliver a truly exceptional experience. Yevhen (our photographer), Serhii (our videographer), and their amazing assistant were all incredibly kind, professional, and just so easy to be around. They made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, while still managing to capture all the big, emotional moments and the quiet, candid ones we’ll treasure forever. What stood out most was their attention to detail and how seamlessly they worked together. It never felt staged or stiff—they somehow caught the true essence of our day with such artistry and grace. The final photos and video brought us right back to the moment, and honestly, we cried happy tears all over again. If you're looking for a team that will not only deliver stunning, timeless memories but also make the process feel joyful and effortless, we truly can’t recommend Human Artist enough. They’re more than just vendors—they felt like part of our celebration. Thank you, Yevhen, Serhii, and team—we are forever grateful!

Photojournalist, Virgo, & everyone's self-proclaimed bestie. I want to know your story and I really want to pet your dog. I pride myself on being the type of person you will want to keep coming back to share your life with. I hope you love the way I tell stories but mostly I hope I can make you feel seen the way you deserve to be.

We planned our backyard wedding in 2 weeks and were SO lucky that Chelsea was available to photograph our day! She made my parents backyard look like our dream venue through her photos. She was super communicative, professional, and helped make our wedding run smoothly. Would highly highly recommend!!
