Holy cow I don’t even know where to start! Nicholas was hands down one of the best Djs I’ve ever heard when at an event! We are incredibly blessed to have him be a part of our wedding day. He was so much fun and very thorough when it came to planning what music would make our day so special! He was so kind to play music during our ceremony and had a microphone for our pastor! He also had lighting that looked so beautiful in our venue! I would recommend him to anyone who wants a DJ that truly loves his job and wants to make your day special! I received so many compliments! Also, his Photo Booth that he offers will be a huge hit at any occasion. Everyone loved the Photo Booth and this was one of my favorite things we had! Huge thank you to Nicholas!

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 
Rating: 4.9 (94 reviews)
  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Rutledge, MO

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Awarded Best of Zola
Flower Moxie was an incredible experience from start to finish. The flowers arrived without any issues, and we had almost a 0% loss of flowers (which is unheard of). The tutorials helped me feel so ready to assemble my own bouquets and our self-assembly not only was SO FUN to do with my bridesmaids, but saved us SO MUCH money!!! I would recommend this to anyone who loves fresh flowers :)

The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire.

Heather and Andrew are just the best! Their communication is quick, clear and detailed. Heather makes sure to cover all bases and offers so many helpfully tips which is so nice when you have so many other things going on. We used them for our engagement photos and they were able to make a trip back out to us after we had to reschedule due to weather. The turnaround time for those photos was great and the quality of work was not compromised by how quickly we got them. For our wedding day they were able to catch all the best moments without making the day feel like it was all about photos. Both of their personalities are so kind and welcoming that they made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. We had so much fun with them and I would highly recommend working with them for your big day.

My name is Ali Cushing; a NY-based photographer working in a blended documentary and editorial approach, emphasized with a cinematic method, and a personalized, true to life editing style. I am honored to be entrusted with depicting genuine love, authentic characters, and immortalizing precious memories. I see beauty in the subtle details as much as the wide, epic scene, while I see glory in the mundane in-between moments as much as the heart thudding highs. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

From our first interaction, Ali proved to be an exceptional wedding photographer. Their communication style was friendly, timely, detail-oriented, and flexible - she was like a fly on the wall on our wedding day, capturing all the special moments we didn't even realize were happening. The quality of her work was seamless, with a documentary style that beautifully documented every aspect of our day. Ali traveled a long distance to be with us, and was thorough in ensuring we had every single picture we wanted and more. We were thrilled to receive gorgeous sneak peeks just days after our wedding. Ali went above and beyond to make our special day perfect, and we couldn't recommend her more highly.
