When choosing your wedding videographer, look no further!! From the moment we reached out to Victor, we could tell he was so genuine and truly cared about our day! He was quick to respond, punctual on our wedding day, and extremely timely when delivering our video. Vic captured all the emotions and moments that meant the most to us, and now every year on our anniversary (and days in between), we get to relive our wedding day with family and friends.

Emily Taft Events 

5.0

Sparks, NV
  • Planner
  • Offers 5 services
  • Starts at $950

I'm Emily, the Owner and Lead Planner behind the scenes, crafting unforgettable moments. My journey began with a degree from the University of Nevada Las Vegas, Go Rebels! In Las Vegas I worked for a destination management company that taught me so much about the industry. From event management, to florals & signage design, custom builds, how to create transportation manifests, execute dine-arounds, oversee entertainment and so much more! In 2020 I moved to Northern Nevada and fell in love with wedding planning. My passion for wedding planning comes from connecting with couples behind the scenes and bringing their dream day to life.

Awarded Best of Zola
Emily helped us plan the 40th-anniversary party for our family business, and we couldn’t have been happier with the results. From the start, we knew we wanted an event that felt welcoming, fun for our clients, tied to our community, and celebrated the last 40 years of memories and accomplishments both personally and professionally. We brought Emily general ideas, a budget, and a few key things we were passionate about. Throughout the entire process, she ensured we always felt heard and respected in every decision. If one of our ideas wasn't the best fit, she provided thoughtful explanations on why, guiding us toward better alternatives to ensure everything ran smoothly. There are so many decisions to make when planning an event, and it was an incredible relief to have complete confidence in Emily. I knew I could give her the reins and she would exceed our expectations. Her connections with local vendors meant we had an outstanding florist, bar service, live music, food, and custom decorations—all within our budget! Emily’s professionalism and charm were on full display as she helped us greet guests and explained the layout and activities of the event. Beyond the event itself, Emily went the extra mile by gathering valuable data, so we know how to improve for future events, and helped us ensure we can properly thank and follow up with our clients who attended. She truly thought of everything. We’re already looking forward to working with her again! I will 100% refer to anyone looking for assistance with a business event, vow renewal, birthday party, wedding, or anything under the sun!

Haven Florals

Sparks, NV
  • Florist
  • Starts at $10,000
  • Offer

Haven Florals is a home based studio nestled in Sparks, NV. We seek to create naturalistic and European inspired arrangements, drawing inspiration from natures beauty and the ever changing colors of each season. We believe in creating impactful designs that tell our client’s love stories, are cohesive with the surrounding environments and we focus on the small details that reflect their personality. We love to choose ingredients that are of the unbeaten path, sourcing from local farmers and California wholesalers as well as our own garden.

We were connected with Kristina through our planner, Taylor at Revel & Rye, and couldn’t have been happier with the recommendation. Kristina nailed the vision perfectly. We had a good idea of what we were looking for, but of course needed the right person to help bring it to life. Kristina listened and understood what we were imagining, presented options while being mindful of our budget, and expanded where we wanted to. Haven Florals focuses on “Old World and Wild Wedding Flowers” and while Kristina certainly excels in that style, someone as talented as she is can do it all. Our floral design was nearly all white, focusing on texture and layout instead of color, but that was no problem for Kristina. The flowers were one of our favorite and most memorable parts of our wedding day, and it would not have been the same without Haven Florals. I would happily use Kristina for any future event where you want the best of the best when it comes to floral design, wedding or otherwise!

Planning a wedding in 2020 during Covid-19 had its challenges to say the least, but Beth and her staff were with us 100% every step of the way- they endured 3 date changes and a venue change and stayed supportive and accommodating throughout. The food at our wedding was Fantastic, we received a lot of positive feedback from our guests. In fact, one of me and my husbands favorite parts of planning our wedding was our food tasting. The staff at our wedding was friendly and professional. Thank you RoundAbout Catering!

Telling stories one shot at a time is what drives my passion for photography. I grew up in Virginia surrounded by nature and family, which inspires my love for capturing authentic moments. When I am not behind the camera I am either spending time drinking coffee with my bible, going to the movies with my husband, or doing something with the pets! We have two cats, Mochi & Boba, and a Golden Retriever named Maverick!

Shiba Shots was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. She was very communicative, put us at ease and made the whole process really enjoyable. The quality of her work is amazing - the photos are intimate, professional, and captured all the special moments we wanted. With 5 young kids under 8 and a big extended family, coordinating everyone and getting great shots was no small task, but Katie and her team were up for the challenge. They had great ideas to make the most of our venue and our family, and the final photos are so timeless. We couldn't be happier with Shiba Shots and highly recommend them to any couple looking for an amazing wedding photography experience.

Lauren was an amazing photographer. She had multiple facetime sessions with us on how we would like the day to look. She was able to focus on what him and I needed (less poses, more candid and natural shots). She was very communicative and detail oriented. Her questionnaires were very helpful and so was her ability to help outline the day. Her and her second photographer were able to wrangle up the groom and groomsmen and get them in order which was really nice. I even had a few guests come up to me and compliment Lauren on her ability to weave through all the guests and capture the moments.

I love visual storytelling, because in essence, it is a part of human experience. All in all, memories is the most precious asset we hold on to. It is waterproof; it is fire proof, alas, not so much time proof. People say time heals all wounds, but unfortunately, it erases memories too... Until we are reminded of them again, like looking through an album or watching your wedding video. Then all of a sudden, you remember what you were doing, how you felt that day, what happened before and after. Pictures and videos are tools to keep our stories alive, so we can share them over family dinners and gatherings over generations.

We had the immense pleasure of working with Desert Southwest to coordinate our recent family reunion and we are very pleased with the overall experience. From the beginning stages all the way through to the day of the reunion they provided excellent organization, clear and consistent communication and thoughtful attention to all the details large and small. Bringing together our reunion required gathering families from multiple states to bring us all together in one location for a joyous weekend! They handled every aspect with care, professionalism and attention to details. The reunion itself was beautifully put together, they handled all of the catering, the decor, equipment rental, travel arrangements and transportation to and from the venue. Our families were able to focus on reconnecting and enjoying our time together as being such a large group, we rarely have the opportunity to be together all at the same time. It was planning that took a little over a year to put together and I had the utmost faith putting the planning decisions in their capable hands. What stood out was Kaia's approachable manner, her calm affect and genuine commitment to making our event memorable and meaningful so that we created memories for years to come. We can confidently recommend Desert Southwest to anyone planning a reunion or similar private gathering. We would gladly work with them together in the future and will definitely be reconnecting with them to plan my daughter's wedding next year.

Hi there! First off I am so excited that you’ve made it this far!

Capturing your wedding day is my drive and my passion. The ability to tell your story from start to finish through stills is my drive.

Josie was a dream to work with. She was very involved and helpful durning the entire planning process. She was able to offer recommendations for other vendors which was so appreciated. She becomes more than someone providing a service, she really does become a friend. We chose to have an intimate wedding with no bridal party. Josie was there to fluff my dress, help with my veil, bustle my dress, bring me water....she really wore all the hats. She helped keep us on our timeline and even got down on the dance floor with us. Her work is very talented and creative and we are so happy to have these memories to look back on. She'll definitely be our go to photographer for all of our special life moments.

Blend Catering

  • Caterer
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Sparks, NV

We started Blend after falling in love at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York. Upon graduating, we trekked across the country to work tireless hours under envelope-pushing chefs in Napa Valley and San Francisco. We are happy to now call the Greater Reno-Tahoe area our home, as this region is brimming with culinary possibilities and evolving in exciting ways.

Blend was incredible! The food was absolutely delicious and the staff was super friendly and efficient. We are foodies and catering was an important decision for our day; Blend exceeded all our expectations and we are so happy with our choice. Everything was so fresh and we are beyond impressed with what they were able to do in a pop-up kitchen at our off-the-grid venue. Blend has an extensive menu of options that can be a bit intimidating, but they happily work with you to build your dream menu and to tweak things to your vision. A tasting is included with your booking and we highly recommend taking advantage of it! It was extremely helpful in narrowing down & tweaking some items on our menu. Pro tip: don’t taste the things that you know you’re going to go for (for us, that was the short ribs); use the tasting to choose the sides and dishes you aren’t confident in! We started off with Asian inspired appetizers and hands down our collective favorite item of the night were the Bao Buns! They were so light and fluffy and had an amazing pork filling and gochujang sauce. We also went off-menu with veggie spring rolls that were a favorite for our vegetarian guests. Our main course included duck and short ribs, which were both delicious, but the stars of the plate were the seasonal succotash and rosemary brown butter smashed potatoes. We opted to include late night food service, which featured breakfast burritos and chicken and waffle bites. Worth noting: our off-the-grid venue didn’t have an oven, so we had to rent one for Blend to use (we rented through Celebrations). This will be an additional budget line item if you’re hosting an off-the-grid event. All in all, the talented team put together an amazing variety of food that we are still dreaming about. We loved working with Blend and cannot recommend them enough!

On the big day, Crystal arrived on time and immediately got to work. She listened carefully to what I wanted and perfectly executed the look. My makeup was flawless - it looked natural yet glamorous at the same time. I couldn't stop admiring how incredible it looked in photos! Most importantly, it stayed put all night long despite happy tears, hugs, dancing, and more. I didn't have to do a single makeup check or touchup.
