Awarded Best of Zola
Margaret was better than I could’ve asked! Leading up to the day she was so easy to communicate with. She created a timeline for the day and any thoughts I had she took them into account and found a way to incorporate them into the plan. Truely felt like a team because of how kind and thoughtful she is. Get to the day, she was a calming presence for sure. She showed up with a smile on her face and seamlessly cued the bridesmaids and myself throughout. She was present but didn’t hover it was the perfect balance. Along with that she was my hype girl throughout it 3 Now let’s talk about the pictures, I’m not used to getting my picture taken and feel so uncomfortable being the center of attention but she tells you every detail you need, and if something doesn’t look right she’ll correct it gracefully in the moment. I felt like I got to enjoy my day without it feeling like a photoshoot. She delivered the pictures so fast!! A couple of my bridesmaids made comments about how fast the turnaround time was…and they were breathtaking!! Better than I ever could have imagined, I can’t stop looking at them. Not a moment was missed and due to her talent we have the most perfect picture to remind us of our special day for the rest of our lives. Do yourself a favor and book with her, worth every penny.

Merry by Mia

  • Planner
  • Offers 5 services
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Sterling Forest, NY

Everyone needs an events coordinator whose responsibility is to make sure you--and everyone at the center of the celebration--enjoy the event. Merry by Mia will be in your corner and take away all logistical stress.

We hired a day-of coordinator because although we wanted to own the process of planning the wedding, we did not want to be point persons for vendor questions, logistics, and issues on the day of the wedding. We chose Merry By Mia because we instantly felt like we were in good hands, were reassured by the fact that Mia herself had recently gotten married and knew firsthand what kind of stressors and wrinkles go into a wedding day, and because we were impressed with her podcast. We benefited greatly from working with Merry by Mia! We had a sounding board for questions throughout the planning process, making big undertakings (like finding and booking transportation for 120 people!) much much simpler. And of course, on the day of, we would not have rested nearly as easy if we hadn't known that Mia was there to represent our best interests when we couldn't be there ourselves. We also heavily relied on Mia to understand what we wanted/what was important to us and translate that to our other vendors, especially when we felt we weren't being listened to. This was invaluable to us. Overall, we were incredibly satisfied! From big planning moments down to helping me into my reception dress, the day would not have gone nearly as smoothly without Mia. I would absolutely recommend working with Merry because from my experience, Mia was reliable, understanding, and excited! It means a lot when vendors who live and breathe weddings still have the ability to get as excited over the details as you do. I would say to absolutely prioritize this expense in your budget. For me, I know that if I had allocated that money to any other line item I wouldn't have been able to fully enjoy it because I would be dealing with so much unnecessary stress and wrangling without a point person. Mia went above and beyond, listening to the long list of very particular requests we had and made sure everything was perfect. We're so thankful to her! “

At A Perfect Blend Entertainment, we’ve set the standard for a Hudson Valley wedding DJ – with over 1,500 satisfied couples, we know exactly what makes a memorable wedding. It’s that combination of a great mix of music and spending less time on the microphone. Our goal is to create an epic experience through music for couples getting married in the Hudson Valley, who believe music is a key part of their celebration.

Mario was an absolutely fantastic DJ, and working with A Perfect Blend was seamless. From the first conversation we had with Mario, he was receptive to how we wanted our wedding, and he executed it flawlessly. The Perfect Blend portal was easy to use and made selecting music a breeze; we even sent Mario a Spotify playlist and a custom edit of our first dance song to make the process even easier. Throughout the reception, Mario was communicative about the different announcements he needed to make and wasn’t afraid to add a little flair to some of the songs he played. We received many compliments on how fantastic Mario was and would easily recommend him for any wedding (or any other event you might need a DJ for).

Awarded Best of Zola
Shawn did an awesome job! He did the music for our wedding ceremony, the music for the reception, provided uplighting, and the photobooth. My now husband and I enjoyed working with Shawn. He is funny, easy going, and patient. His questionnaire is very detailed and is very helpful for pulling the music together for the day. He also was very focused on making sure my now husband and I heard what we wanted to hear for the music. During the ceremony, Shawn timed the music perfectly. We saw later watching videos that he even cut the microphone out for my brother, the officiant of the wedding, when my brother almost started talking over parents walking down the aisle. Thanks for that, Shawn! Later in the night, we had other challenges with our timeline due to longer than expected speeches, too many tables to say hi to, and my own indecisiveness. Shawn handled all these obstacles very smoothly, kept an eye on the crowd and helped us stay in tune with when we needed to get the dance floor going. He played the songs we requested and helped us out with choosing songs for younger people. Since the wedding went by so quickly, I think the thing I am most grateful for is all the photos and videos he took of the night. The day was a bit of a blur and Shawn let us relive the night by sending us tons of photos and videos of everyone dancing. Thank you for that, Shawn!

Justin made sure they played my walk down song special for me to allow me to walk to my husband at a specific time in the song, where others made me feel it was not possible. Their music ability is just so impressive. Justin handled the reception like a pro, from our introductions to our first dance to hyping our guests up on the dance floor!

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband Sean and I got married at the Blue Water Manor in June 2024. We are from northern NJ and took a chance on each of our vendors through their portfolios and online reviews. Jason went above and beyond what we could have ever expected from our photographer. Since we were from out of the area we had multiple phone calls to discuss timelines and specifics really helping us think of everything. Even met with us the week of to walk through the venue and other places we wanted to take photos, just rolling with it and helping us get exactly what we wanted. Nothing could have prepared us for the crappy weather we had the day of the wedding but Jason put a smile on with us and braved it. Never complained about how soaked he probably got and just did everything possible to help us have the best day. And we did. Every single one of our guests commented on lucky we were to have a photographer like him watching him in action and our photos speak to that. Even though our wedding day has come and gone we would still book Jason time and time again.

Awarded Best of Zola
Brian is one of the best wedding DJs in the business. In the past two years I’ve been to eight different weddings. Brian was the DJ for three of the eight, and the party/reception component of the events was never more fun than when Brian was driving the bus. He is an east coast DJ, but he spun tracks at both of my sister-in-laws’ weddings and as we were searching for a DJ for our own wedding we reached out just to see what he would charge for a wedding in Chicago. Turns out the price was right. Brian traveled to Chicago, MC’d our entire wedding, brought all of the equipment necessary and made our day exceptional in every way. I think there are a few things that really set Brian apart from other wedding DJs. Anyone can stand there and run through a playlist, but Brian went off book a few times to match and capture the energy of the guests. As we were in the midst of the planning process he added zero stress, and just calmly walked us through the process of selecting songs. He had suggestions and recommendations along the way. He even brought an extra speaker so that we could plug our digital piano in and the pianist would be able to play loudly enough. Overall, we can’t recommend Brian highly enough. You will not regret choosing him to DJ at your wedding, party, event. Whatever it is, Brian is a huge value add and a pleasure to work with.

Zhané was an absolute pleasure to work with for my bridal hair trial! I wanted to write this early in case anyone was considering her and wanted early feedback. Her communication was always clear, efficient, and timely, putting my mind at ease throughout the scheduling process. She was very flexible with finding a time that worked with my schedule. The quality of her work and value was excellent - she truly provided a full-service experience that was both professional and fun. Zhané was particularly wonderful, as she was patient with me even though I was indecisive with what I ultimately wanted. She made sure I was comfortable and that my dreams were perfectly visualized, ensuring I looked and felt my absolute best and I knew then that she would do the same on my special day. I will update this after the wedding but if you are looking for a natural hairstylist, book her yesterday! Update post-wedding: Working with Zhané was an absolute dream. She took such good care of not only my hair but also my spirit leading up to the big day. I received her complete service which included the bridal trial (shampoo, treatment, and styling) and hair prep 1 day before the wedding (which I received shampoo, customized protein treatment, and prep for the big day) and then she was with me to finish the look at the wedding. She was so funny and got along with my other vendors (even tag-teaming with my MUA so that they both could work when time was getting short). She brings such great energy to the space and I received compliments on my hair all day. For those of you who have natural hair and want to highlight that on your big day, it is truly a no-brainer!

Olivia is a master at natural makeup. I felt so gorgeous and so myself at the rehearsal dinner and wedding day. She was a relaxing presence during the wedding weekend but also took the time before to really understand my makeup routine and preferences and even make product suggestions. She was a proactive communicator and even sent my bridesmaids info ahead of the wedding! Couldn’t recommend her more!

Julia is truly the BEST photographer out there and she makes everyone look SO GOOD!! We booked her for both our engagement session and our wedding because we loved her so much! She is so skillful at finding beautiful angles and working with natural lighting, and she was great at directing us with suggested poses that didn’t look forced or unnatural. She was also really easy to work with: we met up beforehand to communicate our vision and discuss the kinds of photographs that we wanted for the engagement session and we did that again for our wedding. On our wedding day Julia brought her husband Leo who is also a photographer to assist her and they came early in the morning to begin taking scenery photos, details, and other things while the rest of us got ready. She was there with us throughout the entire day all the way til the end of the evening and she went out with us to take some sunset photos in the middle of the reception, which turned out so beautifully! Finally, Julia was super prompt at sending us the final photographs, which I know she worked hard on because there were A LOT! We can tell that Julia truly enjoys what she does and really wants to get the best photos possible so she always goes above and beyond. I think the phenomenal photos that we’re sharing here can speak for themselves. She was such a joy to work with and we can’t wait to find some other excuse to hire her again!!

Stef was a wonderful photographer for our wedding!! She did an excellent job in the pre-wedding planning to help us shape and define our vision, then on the day of she couldn't have been more supportive or professional! The photos are absolutely gorgeous and she got a perfect mix of formal/informal shots, poses/candids and made sure all our bases were covered. Thank you so much for everything Stef!!

Why do I tell stories? Because stories help us remember all of those beautiful moments in our lives. I'm Danny, and I've been creating cinematic films for thirteen years. I'm a human being who's incredibly passionate about creating timeless films that are artistic, exquisite, and recherché.

Danny and Eve worked with Scott and me months before the wedding to be prepared for our big day. They worked with our Dog, Nora during an engagement session in one of our favorite hikes and captured our love story perfectly. These are photos and videos that I will be watching well into our marriage. Thank you Driftr Films!
