Don’t overlook the Short Hills Hilton for your wedding! It was the perfect location for our big day, offering a central gathering spot where our guests didn’t have to worry about traveling throughout the day. We explored several traditional venues, but none felt as right as this one. We had a November wedding and didn’t expect to have an outdoor ceremony, but the hotel’s lovely patio space was a wonderful option, and surprisingly, the noise from the JFK Parkway wasn’t an issue. For our indoor ceremony, the venue features a permanent enclosed tent structure. At first glance, it didn’t seem like much, but with the help of the event coordinator Vivian Cohen’s help and coordination with our florist, the space was transformed into something breathtaking. The reception space was spacious and perfect for our 170 guests—large enough for everyone to feel comfortable but not so big that it felt empty. Guests still rave about the food and service! The chef and maître d' truly deserve all the praise. The hors d’oeuvres were diverse and delicious, from sliders to a pasta bar to sushi. We chose the salmon and short ribs for dinner, which we selected during a private tasting session. The hotel grounds, filled with foliage, were perfect for photos, especially as we were lucky to have beautiful fall colors for our shoot. Victoria at the Hilton was incredibly helpful with coordinating room blocks, hotel room gift bags, and storage. Vivian was a dream to work with—she was welcoming, communicative, and made everything run smoothly. Her checklist was a lifesaver for keeping track of details, and she was hands-on with day-of coordination, ensuring everyone knew where they needed to be and helping with the little touches that made everything perfect. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or team to help make our wedding day unforgettable!

We truly could not have asked for a better DJ than Evan. From the very start, he was professional, organized, and so easy to work with—but what really set him apart was how incredibly well he read the room. Every song felt perfectly timed, and he somehow knew exactly what to play to keep the energy up all night. The dance floor was never empty—our guests are still talking about how much fun they had. He struck the perfect balance between playing our must-haves and mixing in songs that got everyone involved. It felt so seamless and natural, and we were able to just be present and enjoy every moment. Evan didn’t just play music—he truly created the atmosphere for our entire night.

Brittany did an amazing job with our wedding flowers! During our first phonecall, I told her I was aiming for a fairy garden vibe, and I described the color palette. And as soon as she sent me her proposal a few days later, I knew she was the right fit for us! She really understood exactly what I was envisioning, and she came up with a few different options. Communication was also easy. Brittany is responsive and I felt confident that we had all our bases covered and every detail was well planned. On our wedding day, the flowers were simply stunning! Brittany delivered and set everything up, and everything was just like in the proposal we had discussed. She was even able to repurpose the floral arch after the ceremony, and move it to the reception hall. I had spoken to a few other florists, and none of them were prepared to do that, so the fact that Brittany made it possible was a huge deal to me! The entire experience was just perfect. If your wedding flowers are a priority for you, she will make the magic happen!

We're a husband/wife photography duo. We're college sweethearts and we're currently expecting our first child in June 2021! We are so happy to be in this business but we didn’t always know we’d become wedding photographers. Seth spent about 10 years in video production (aka the equipment expert) and Nicole is an advertising art director (aka the artsy perfectionist).

Seth was phenomenal on our wedding day! He gave us fantastic direction as a couple, ensuring every authentic laugh and moment was captured. He is a true artist who constantly looks for unique, creative elements in his shots, which completely kept our photos from feeling stiff or staged. The previews that hit the mark are absolutely breathtaking and completely authentic. Seth was also incredibly patient and professional when it came to directing our family and friends. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Glitzed Events was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding florals. Nicole and her team were incredibly responsive, creative, and attentive to every detail throughout the planning process. I had a very specific vision for a gothic Victorian theme with black and white florals, and Nicole brought that vision to life perfectly. She worked closely with me to explore different options and make changes as needed. The morning of the wedding, I asked for a last-minute change to my bouquet and Nicole was so quick and responsive to make the adjustment. The final florals were truly stunning - it was like stepping into a dream. I cannot recommend Glitzed Events highly enough for the exceptional quality of work they provided.

Literally from the very beginning, he demonstrated unparalleled professionalism - answering all of our emails super quickly, and taking the time to ensure every detail was covered. He worked with us to create a personalized timeline that made our day run SEAMLESSLY. Most of our vendors worked off his timeline.

We loved everything about EMG for our July 2025 wedding. The process of meeting and setting up a contract was easy and efficient. It was a completely tailored experience and did not feel rushed or pushed at all. He gave great recommendations and really understood what our vibe was for 115 guests. We went with an acoustic guitar player for ceremony, electric guitar cocktail hour and reception along with a DJ (Josuel lead) for the reception. We also had the photo station Photo Booth which was perfect for the setting. However our biggest compliments go to Josuel who was our lead DJ. He was organized, prepared and had an excellent presence and composure. He even sorted our last minute changes with the venues matre de because we and guests were taking too long at cocktail hour.. he figured out little changes so I didn’t have to! Above and beyond. Also he had everyone and I mean everyone dancing the whole night to a blend of 80s rock, 90s pop 2000s alt.. it was just perfect. Cannot say thank you enough to him and the whole EMG group.

If I could give Eli a million stars, I would without hesitation. Hiring her was hands down the BEST investment we made for our wedding. She is absolutely iconic in every sense of the word. From day one, Eli brought a level of organization and expertise that made the entire process feel effortless. She anticipated needs before we even knew we had them, handled every detail seamlessly, and somehow made us feel completely at ease the entire time. Her communication was clear, her execution was flawless, and her presence was exactly what you want on such an important day, steady, supportive, and genuinely invested in making everything perfect. On the wedding day itself, I truly don’t know what we would have done without her and her team. Everything flowed beautifully, any potential issues were handled behind the scenes, and we were able to be fully present and soak in every moment. That peace of mind is priceless. Beyond her professionalism, Eli is just an incredible person to have in your corner. She cares deeply, she shows up fully, and she makes you feel like your wedding is the most important one she’s ever planned. If you don’t think you need a planner… you’re wrong. Book LSC. It will be the best decision you make. —The Bride Book her. Period. My only regret was not booking her the day we started wedding planning. My wife and I are very organized, type A people both with strong visions especially with our wedding. And yet, Eli surpassed any of our capabilities going above and beyond to bring our dream wedding to life. From the start, Eli combined organization, inspiration, and genuine excitement/joy into a solid feasible plan. Everyone involved in the wedding had a clear roadmap leading up to and on the wedding day. Whenever we ran into obstacles, as life tends to bring, Eli was quick to pivot and find solutions that would be even better than our original ideas. Often, she had multiple solutions for every single scenario we threw at her. In short, I would trust Eli with every single second since the day I proposed. If you’re looking for someone who can see your vision through, organize and execute effectively, and bring genuine joy to you and your future spouse’s lives, you need not look any further than LSC. I’m not really sure why you’re still reading this and not contacting Eli this very second. Our wedding day was, without exaggeration, PERFECT. And LSC made that happen. —The Groom

From the moment my husband and I stepped foot into Liberty House, we knew we had found our dream wedding venue. The communication with the staff, led by the wonderful Danielle, was impeccable - they went above and beyond to ensure our special day was nothing short of perfect. The level of care and attention they provided made me feel like the most important bride they had ever seen. The venue itself was a true luxury, like something out of a magazine, and the food received rave reviews from all of our guests. Despite the high-end feel, the pricing was more than fair. I wish I could relive my wedding day at Liberty House over and over again. It was truly a magical experience that we will cherish forever.

My husband and I got married at the CKE this October 2024. There aren’t enough words to express our gratitude to their entire team for all of their hard work to make our visions and dreams come to life. Each and every staff member was kind, and helpful. If you had a question you’d get a response promptly and always with a “let’s see what we can do attitude”. Katherine (the owner) made you feel a part of the CKE family and always was looking to make the planning process seamless and easy for us and our family. The CKE floral and design team made our big ideas all come to life- we had a visions of big branching centerpieces with florals tucked in, that Jess and her team absolutely delivered on. On top of that, we asked for an installation over our sweetheart table. Jess and her team have many suggestions and shared they visited Home Depot at least 3 times to see how it would hang, and the final installation beyond exceeded our expectations. The talent and grace their team exudes is what ever bride and groom look for in a team. The planning process was also so seamless due to their amazing coordinator team. We worked with Katrina, the kindest, most professional coordinator we have ever met. Katrina was available at every step of the planning process, providing thoughtful recommendations due to her very obvious experience. Katrina also was there for our wedding day of helping to manage the schedule, set up, constantly checking in, and making sure it all went according to plan (which it did). In addition during the reception Katrina was checking with us throughout the night to see if we wanted to pivot anything or if we needed anything. We are extremely grateful for her support! In addition, Kyle was our maitre d’ for the evening and he did an absolutely wonderful job. He made sure to check in with my husband and I as well as our immediate family members. He was so kind and professional! Lastly but very importantly- the food and drinks! Most of all of our guests shared that this was the best wedding food they have ever had. It is no small feat cooking for large groups and every aspect of the food from the cocktail hour to the dinner course was absolutely fantastic. These are a few quotes from guests: - “The food was gourmet.” - “This is the real deal.” - “The sushi… Oh, the sushi! So fresh!” In addition, the bartenders crushed it! Everyone was impressed by the quality of the drinks and we never had a line at the bar- they were fast and catered to our guests. I would highly recommend the CKE to future couples getting married. The aspect of the family business really shows and ensures you have a tailored experience for your wedding. The entire staff is kind and down to earth- always willing to help. We wish them nothing but the best for their future wedding seasons!

We danced the WHOLE night and the “hora loca” blew everyone’s minds. Fernando also incorporated our song requests seamlessly, ensuring the vibe was right before playing anything. Given that it was a bilingual wedding, he also ensured that both languages were incorporated so everyone felt included and it wasn’t overwhelming on either side. I appreciated that a whole lot. He played a major role in making our wedding the most fun wedding, and was a pleasure to work with, and highly professional.

JP and David were wonderful to work with! They were professional, and got all the important aspects of our day. They even delivered our video content faster than expected which was a fun surprise to relive the wedding day after the chaos was all over. The implementation of our MOHs&BM’s speeches, along with the officiant and our private vows into our final wedding video was amazing and was so cohesive with the lyrics and shots that JP chose. You can tell there was a lot of thought and heart put into our video and we couldn’t be more thankful for that. It was truly a pleasure to work with JP and his team! I am so glad we will have these memories to look back on and will cherish them forever.

Working with Lace & Rose Events was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Leading up to the day, they were incredibly helpful—always available to answer questions, quick to respond, and full of thoughtful, practical advice. They helped us fine-tune every detail of our timeline and made sure nothing was overlooked. On the wedding day, they made me feel calm, confident, and completely taken care of.

It was a pleasure working with Sonya and her team for our big day! From the initial phone conversation, she made sure to listen to what we wanted and came back with recommendations that really brought it to life. She ensured that we stayed within the budget parameters we set by providing various options of things we could do but, making sure everything was still of the highest quality. She even worked with our schedule to come meet us at the venue with samples to finalize all the details. A few days before the wedding we ran into a small issue around the Chuppah structure we chose and she made sure to call us right away to explain the situation, and came up with alternative solutions that did not require any additional charge. The finished product was beautiful. I’m still getting compliments on my flower arrangements a month later!! If you work with Sonya and her team, you won’t be sorry!

I'm Angelica, the owner of Dawnpoint Studios! I'm an adventurous and internationally requested wedding/elopement photographer with a focus on sustainability! Here's an unexpected fact - I hated weddings when I first started second shooting them. It broke my heart to see couples being rushed, overwhelmed, and not truly having any connection to couples. That's what drove my passion to breath a fresh air into the wedding experience! Plan with intention, focus on being present, and building genuine relationships with couples! You should be heard, appreciated, and understood. You should feel encouraged to get married your way.

I don't even know where to START!!!! This gal immediately became part of the crew from the first photos with the bridesmaids to the end of the night rager! Angelica and her second shooter were both incredible start to finish. Great at going with the flow but also making sure to get those photos that I had on my shot list (no matter how hard everyone was making that haha!) She had the best energy that helped me not feel nervous at all and honestly empowered from the start. She got so many amazing details that we are literally having a viewing party with all of our local guests because we just cannot choose which photos to post. I chose her because her photos and galleries all looked so different but one common theme was everyone looked like they were 1. having fun and 2. being themselves. Personally posed photos aren't for me. So when I saw her galleries I knew I wanted her above all other photographers. And I had a chart of 21 that I researched but after my first meeting with her I was sold. I chose three photos for this review- one of her capturing the insanity of our hair at the reception, Angelica being a part of the crew (my dad mentioned 3 times how great she was and how much he loved her and the second shooter) and the one where she truly shows her style of capturing natural excitement in the people and world around her.
