Working with Destify was a game-changer for our destination wedding.

We used Eivan's for both engagement photos and our wedding and couldn't be happier. They are wonderful about asking for your input and making sure you are truly happy with what you are getting. The photographers and videographers are the perfect mixture of professional and casual/friendly so that you are comfortable. We loved Rachael H for engagement photos, and Heather G (photo) and Dmytro L (video) for our wedding. They also actually care about you and the event itself, starting with asking you about your story. We got both a photographer, videographer, and engagement photos for a great bundle price, which was so helpful. Customer service is also fantastic about answering questions thoroughly and quickly. After booking and after the events, they send you information about what to expect, etc. I did quite a but of research into photography companies, and I would highly highly recommend Eivan's!

We were really able to enjoy our engagement because of her guidance and support – and that's a gift we will always treasure. Our wedding day was more beautiful than we ever could have imagined.

What is a Hybrid DJ? I asked the very same question. And boy were we glad we found out!! Imagine taking a fabulous DJ and adding a few instrumental pieces to enhance the party even more. That's what we did, and the dance floor was full the entire evening. Our super-awesome DJ, owner Al Okyne, along with his team of a drummer & saxophonist, helped make our son's wedding reception one everyone is still talking about. The saxophonist even played amongst the dancing guests, and everyone loved it. So do I recommend Okyne Entertainment Group...Absolutely!

We had our wedding at Moonflower, and it was amazing! We originally found Moonflower on Zola. Although we are from the area, we had never visited before, and the photos immediately caught our attention. The bar fit our vibe perfectly, and after visiting a few times, we knew it was the right place for us. We rented both spaces: the main bar upstairs and Nightshade, the speakeasy downstairs. Moonflower has a small stage in the main bar, which we used for our ceremony. The space already has so much character that it needed very little decorating. We brought small flower vases and an altar piece that the bride and her now mother in law made together. After the ceremony, we held cocktail hour and served food buffet style in the main bar. Later, everyone moved downstairs to Nightshade. Its lounge atmosphere and dance floor were perfect for our 50 to 60 guests. Some people relaxed around the cocktail tables while others danced, so everyone could enjoy the night in their own way. Moonflower’s event organizer, Morgan, was wonderful. She made the entire planning process feel easy and was a joy to work with. She helped turn our ideas into reality, assisting with day of logistics, décor, beverage packages, and every question that came up. She was always responsive and available. Morgan also helped us think through details that had not occurred to us, including coffee for our guests, explaining the parking situation, contacting nearby businesses about using their lots, and recommending DJs. We ultimately hired one of the DJs she suggested. Her extra support was incredibly helpful and took a great deal of stress out of planning. If you have not tried Moonflower’s drinks, you are missing out. Their regular cocktail menu is fantastic, and our experience was even more special because of a custom cocktail session with Zach. He created signature drink options for each of us based on our tastes and favorite cocktails. Every option was spectacular, and the final drinks felt personal and special. We chose Funeral Potatoes for the food. Since they already handle the food at Moonflower, we were able to try many dishes beforehand. Our guests raved about everything. We especially recommend the brussels sprouts, deviled eggs, and caprese sandwiches. Alexis, who heads up Funeral Potatoes, was also extremely helpful with selecting the menu. The only outside food we brought in was our wedding cake. The entire staff was phenomenal. Everyone treated the occasion with the perfect balance of care, professionalism, and fun. The night went off without a hitch and was truly one of the best nights of our lives. Moonflower was also extremely reasonable compared with other venues we considered in the city, especially with an open bar and food available on site. Street parking was plentiful, and none of our guests had trouble finding a spot. For anyone looking for a relaxed wedding for 50 to 60 people with a memorable lounge atmosphere, fantastic staff, buffet style food, and exceptional cocktails, Moonflower should be at the top of your list.

From our first conversation, Nova Photos made it clear they genuinely cared about capturing our day the right way. Maks and Tariq were easy to talk to and asked to see my inspiration photos, which helped them understand exactly what I wanted without making me feel stressed or rushed. On the wedding day, they showed up on time and went out of their way to make things work, adapting to our needs and keeping everything running smoothly. Their willingness to accommodate our requests and vision really set them apart. We felt comfortable and supported throughout the entire process, and the final photos exceeded what we hoped for. We would absolutely recommend Nova Photos to any couple looking for photographers who truly want to make your wedding special.

Delcia is a magician when it comes to alterations. I brought a dress for a wedding a size up to fit my hips and with her fit skills and alterations knowledge, my dress gave me the look I wanted. The attire was black tie and she helped me nail it. This is the designer/seamstress I’ll always go to and she is now altering my wedding dress.

Anna Piotrowski with Piotrowski Strings is an incredible violinist!! She played the violin during our entire wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, our first dance, and then played the electric violin for an hour and a half during the open dance portion of the reception. Anna's music was extremely beautiful and touching for the ceremony and first dance and vibrant for the cocktail hour and reception. During the reception, she played the electric violin alongside our DJ and absolutely crushed it! Prior to the wedding, Anna was easy to get a hold of and met with us and the DJ a few times to go over how the night could work best. I would recommend Anna 10 out of 10 times!
