Helen at Brookledge was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding!! From our very first interaction, the whole team was communicative, helpful, and really kind. The venue itself has a completely magical vibe, and was the perfect space for our forest wedding in the trees. I had originally hoped to get married in the redwoods in CA, but the The Camp Chapel (one option for a ceremony space) was the absolute next best thing. Helen went above and beyond throughout the weekend (even printed my updated vows last minute!!) to ensure everything ran smoothly, and everyone's attention to detail made our wedding day feel more magical than we could have ever dreamed of!! We are so grateful to Helen and the whole Brookledge team -- if you love glamping and want to get married in the trees -- THIS IS THE VENUE FOR YOU!! 1000/10 recommend! (Just because there isn't another public place to leave this, if you go with Brookledge, as you 10000% should!! don't choose Jake Allen as your DJ - just use another recommended vendor for music! )

Hey there! I am Katrina. I am a lifestyle, wedding and elopement photographer. My style is without a doubt moody. I live for those candids. I thrive when you are authentically and unapologetically yourself!

Freakin Katrina! O M G. Obsessed isn't even a word to describe how in love with just our sneak peeks we are. We don't even have our full gallery yet and we're gasping at how great our photos came out. Before we even got engaged I KNEW I wanted Katrina as our photographer I was even ready to fly her across the country to photograph our secret elopement last year. I wanted moody vibes and she gave us moody vibes. For 2 years I was sending her every instagram reel, tik tok and pintrest post as inspiration and this girl came through! She gave fly on the wall going to be honest I forgot she was even there until it came time for staged portraits. She's so easy going and just absolutely kills it! We cannot thank or recommend her enough. The proof of her work is in the photograph

After we got our film we HAD to drop a quick note about the amazing wedding video we got from Novel. It's seriously everything we could've hoped for! From the first chat to the reveal was awesome. They didn't just capture moments; they created a beautiful story with killer tunes and all the good stuff. What blew us away was how chill and natural everything felt. No awkward posing, no forced smiles—just real, genuine moments expertly captured. The editing? Flawless. Each frame looked like it could be in a magazine. The colors, the shots, that cinematic touch—absolutely nailed it. Working with Aidin was a breeze. They got our vibe, added some personal touches, and kept everything stress-free. Plus, they delivered on time without any fuss. Every angle was covered, and the sound quality is on point—vows, speeches, and all the happy noise. Our memories are forever captured, thanks to them!

Hi, I'm Jaci Berkopec! A self portrait of me would include a frozen pizza, caesar salad bag, and a bottle of white wine. But more importantly I am a wedding, lifestyle and adventure elopement photographer based out of NYC. Weddings and elopements are one of my passions because witnessing love and marriage is one of the most beautiful things we can witness. When shooting with me, expect to have tons of fun and lots of laughs because I like to be weird! Life is too short to be normal! I photograph all types of love.

We 1000000% recommend Jaci for any of your photography needs! She took our engagement photos and shot our wedding last weekend and she is an absolute DREAM to work with. Her confidence, poise, warmth and positivity helped us stay calm and have fun during the busy wedding day. We heard so many compliments from our loved ones who were also so impressed with her attitude and demeanor. And this is all before we saw the photos: her work is UNREAL. We are truly blown away- they are stunning, and capture the JOY and FUN and LOVE we experienced. I get emotional looking at just the sneak peek gallery because it so beautifully memorializes what it felt like on that day, and now we can share it with our grandparents who couldn't make the journey, and ourselves for decades to come. HIRE JACI!!!

Jackie and Danny Spano have created something special with the Rosemary at Spano Lake. I had the good fortune to get married at the Rosemary this May, and my husband and I are so grateful that the Rosemary will forever be part of our memory of our wedding day. It is objectively a beautiful place to get married with gorgeous vistas of the lake and the woods and flawlessly manicured grounds. It also feels intimate because you and your guests are truly welcomed into the Spanos' home. Jackie and Danny went above and beyond to ensure our guests were comfortable and happy on a day when the weather didn't fully cooperate by setting up the site, getting us heaters, doling out umbrellas, and working with us to host our ceremony in a window when the clouds parted. Even though they weren't coordinators for the event, the Spanos did everything they could to make sure we were getting the most out of our day. Aside from the remarkable couple running the Rosemary, this venue has so much more available for you than the average outdoor venue, including handmade harvest tables, a bridal suite, chairs for your guests, and a sailcloth tent. I couldn't recommend it enough.

Composed of a core group of five event planners, including the only in-house event designer in the area, WPP is able to care for their couples and bring their visions to reality from day one until the confetti hits the floor as the celebration ends. Add to that a talented group of dedicated event coordinators and Team WPP is able to build authentic event experiences and dazzle on wedding day like no one else can.

Wedding Planning Plus is the best! I had the pleasure of working with them for my wedding this past September, and I don’t know how we could have pulled it off without them. If you are reading this and debating whether or not to hire a wedding planner, I not only recommend getting one, I definitely recommend Wedding Planning Plus. As we were moving through the planning process, WPP was great at helping us stay on track and definitely had the expertise needed to make sure we didn’t miss anything. Margette was extremely helpful in planning the florals and design of our wedding, and Eliza was there every step of the way to make us feel at ease so we didn’t get too stressed but also pushed us along so that we kept up with everything. WPP was great for helping to plan the wedding, and they came through even more on the wedding day itself. We felt a little scattered on our day, and Eliza was able to pull everything together and make it really easy for us. We had some unexpected rain on our day, which changed our plans for the ceremony. Eliza was able to reorganize our ceremony and put together something that was as beautiful as we could have hoped for. WPP also was able to set up our table settings just as we had imagined, amongst MANY other things. They really came through and pulled it all together. You will not be disappointed if you decide to work with this team!

  • Serves Schenectady, NY

Cathy founded Cathy's Elegant Events in 2010. Although she was born in NYC, her family moved to the Catskill Mountains at a young age, but they maintained a home in Brooklyn. This allowed her to have a unique upbringing in both Upstate New York and Brooklyn, where many of her relatives still reside. Cathy holds a degree in Mathematics and Statistics.

It was so fun getting to spend time with her and getting to know her during this process. Cathy made every little detail of our fairytale wedding come true. She was terrific during the planning process. When I wanted to try to handle projects myself, she stepped back and let me handle them, but was always there if I needed advice or help with anything. When I needed her to be more involved and hands on, I felt completely confident and comfortable letting her take things in the direction that she felt was best. She was always quick to answer emails and talk on the phone to hash out big picture items or last minute details. The week leading up to the wedding Cathy was AMAZING. We spent almost 2 hours on the phone making sure every last detail was taken care of and exactly the way I envisioned it. She ran our ceremony in the pouring rain and was always cheerful and positive, she was there for me for moral support all afternoon while I was getting ready, she helped setup the barn and ceremony beautifully and made sure every detail was in order. During the ceremony and reception, she made sure that my husband and I were taken care of the entire evening. Our day was absolutely perfect from start to finish and Cathy's expertise, guidance and help played such a huge part in the success of our wedding day. Thank you Cathy!! Tim and I are so grateful for all the hardwork and love you put into making our day great.

Alex is absolutely the BEST at what she does!!! She is so warm, attentive, and thorough at making sure I felt like the bride I always wanted to be on my big day. Our trial run was so much fun, and she had complete grace and flexibility on the big day when it turned out I wanted to change EVERYTHING (God bless her!!). I was sick the morning of my wedding, but Alex rolled with it effortlessly, moved around the morning-of-schedule to style half of my bridesmaids’ hair and makeup, and worked absolutely masterfully under all the pressure of having half the time to finish me as the bride. Truly, she is nimble, professional, creative and has the BEST energy to be around on the biggest day of your life. I would absolutely hire her again, and because I chose her, I get to look back on the photos from my wedding for the rest of my life feeling the most beautiful I’ve ever felt.

We got married at M&D Farm in August of 2024. It's hard to put into words just how magical our wedding was. When you pull into M&D you are instantly transported to a tranquil oasis. We knew as soon as we got pulled into their driveway the day of our visit that this was the place we'd be getting married. What we'd soon learn was that not only would we be saying yes to a beautiful venue, but an all star team! The care Daniel and Mario put into M&D is evident in everything from the flowers to the furniture! Every detail is carefully curated while feeling completely natural and seamless. They have great pride in their home and gardens and tend to it with love, care, and dedication. Daniel and Mario were such a pleasure to work with from start to finish. They are the ultimate professionals, yet also so kind and warm. Couples are so incredibly lucky to get to work with them. Daniel brought out my best creativity and organizational skills, making me think about countless things I would never have considered. We hired Daniel to be our day of coordinator, which is a decision I would highly recommend. No one knows M&D and the local vendors better than him. His recommendations were all stellar and he made suggestions while also listening to us and honoring our vision. He worked with us to be thorough and organized and the result was the most perfect day. Everyone always says to be prepared for things to go wrong on your wedding day. In our eyes, and our guests' eyes, nothing went wrong. Everything was spectacular! That is completely thanks to Daniel! We are so appreciative and in awe of him. Looking back at photos feels like a never ending "pinch me" moment of sheer perfection. Mario and Daniel have created a little slice of heaven.

It’s the one-on-one relationship that you have with your event host throughout your planning that will, and absolutely should, spill over into the atmosphere of your event. Getting to know you with the desire to personalize your entertainment, not simply customize, is a large part of where creativity comes from, and not just mine, but yours as well! I love to offer many suggestions and ideas for your event but also find it just as important to hear your "unique" and "awesome" ideas.

My guest are still raving about Caroline! We are looking for more reasons to book her! She was absolutely amazing. She never missed a beat. She did things that were out of her job title to help make my day a little more special! Caroline was amazing when it came to playing over time as well.

We were on the dance floor ALL night and he continued to hit every kind of music we needed. We also had some unique selections from the ceremony including personally sourced live music. Giuseppe was easy going, organized, professional, and really understood the vibe we were going for. Do yourself a favor and stop looking for the right DJ - Giuseppe is IT! Not to mention - we added a percussionist who Giuseppe brought that was hilarious and really added to the live feel. Book Love of Music and Giuseppe - you'll have the wedding and reception music of your dreams!

Windham Manor was everything we could have wanted. Susan and Barry are amazing! We got married outside in the enchanted forest in Nov ‘24 and it was beautiful. The barn was a fantastic place to host our 200 guests for our reception. The house that you can rent right next to the barn fits 33 people and is perfect for your wedding party to stay. We hosted our rehearsal dinner and after party right at the house as well. Karen, the house manager went above and behind to assist us throughout our stay.

Olivia and Bridie were wonderful to work with. They were able to learn our 2 custom arrangements within a month of the wedding which we so appreciated. The performance was wonderful! The music was beautiful and I'm so happy we chose to hire them to play for our ceremony. There's just something about live string music that makes a wedding even more special! They have a long repertoire list too, so we were able to choose lots of beautiful songs for the ceremony. And they were so nice and waited for us to finish our photos so we could meet them in person! Would definitely recommend them!

We had the pleasure of having Dream Space film our wedding. Tyler was incredible as he played a huge role in making our hectic day go smoother. He knew all the best shots and angles, had very high quality equipment, but most importantly his energy was unmatched. We already knew the product was going to be great just by watching him work with such passion and a smile! Anyone can write a nice review but we strongly feel that the price-range alongside the quality material is a bargain all things considered. Talk to them for 15 minutes and you will be sold - and rightfully so.

Love is what motivates and inspires me every single day. I am a hopeless romantic, and absolutely love every sentimental moment of a wedding. I strive to capture real moments, genuine smiles, and raw emotion.

JB Photography was the absolute best to work with! From the very first zoom call, Jenna’s energy, experience and passion were so clear. She is creative, thoughtful and detail-oriented - from making us feel at ease during our engagement photoshoot (the first time we ever did a “formal” shoot as a couple), through expertly navigating the wedding day timeline ensuring that every moment was captured, Jenna made sure that every detail was covered. When we received all of our photos we were blown away by how she and her team captured everything, from the smallest detail to the full group shots, in such beautiful and creative ways. Now the hard part - choosing our favorites (which we know Jenna will beautifully layout in an album which we’ll cherish forever)!
