Kelvin and Robert were phenomenal to work with. They made the entire process of choosing your music very simple. They were very professional but also went with the flow. There were some last minute changes to our ceremony songs that I wanted that Robert changed with absolutely no problem. Kelvin (DJKelz) made the night absolutely incredible! The dance floor was not empty one time! You can tell he really enjoys what he does. We truly consider Kelvin a new friend!

I truly don’t have enough words to say how grateful I am. Looking at the photos and watching our video felt like reliving our entire wedding all over again, but calmer and with more happy tears. They captured every hug, every laugh, even the nervous looks before I walked down the aisle. What I loved most is that nothing felt too staged, it was all very real. My parents said they hadn’t seen me smile like that in years.

I cannot say enough good things about her work! She did such an amazing job on my hair and makeup. I asked for a natural look, and that is exactly what I got. I’m not really a makeup person and have only had my makeup done professionally one other time, and she was so patient with me throughout the entire process. I felt so beautiful and confident the whole time. She was wonderful with communication and was more than willing to work with me even in such a short period of time. On top of her talent, she is so friendly, uplifting, and truly makes you feel comfortable and cared for. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat!

She has been featured on various high profile wedding social medias and had weddings featured in the Alabama Wedding Magazine. Being a wedding planner is not a job for Raven but a passion!

I used A Rae of Light for my June 9 wedding and she was wonderful! I hired her partial planning service and it ended up being exactly what I needed, as a fairly self-driven type A bride who did not live in the city (Birmingham) where my wedding was happening. Raven served as essential eyes and ears throughout the process. She had great recommendations for venues and vendors, and was able to use her connections to get some discounts and deals for us, which as a budget-conscious bride I really appreciated!!! She also gave us a great recommendation for our afterparty, and was extremely patient as I went back-and-forth on whether to implement our heat plan (ended up going with our Plan A and it was beautiful!). Most importantly, she communicated well with us and helped implement our vision for what we wanted for the wedding rather than imposing her ideas. The wedding day was amazingly stress-free and it was all because of her! I highly highly recommend working with her!

Welcome home!

The view is breath-taking, the backdrops are plentiful, and the home itself is well-equipped with features that are sure to meet your every need.

Venue considerations

  • No free parking

  • Not for you if you are drawn to more unconventional venues
My husband and I were very particular with our wedding venue choice and we could not be happier. As wedding photographers and videographers ourselves, we could not recommend a better option to any couples looking. Not only is the venue itself beautiful and peaceful, but hiring the manager Amanda to coordinate our wedding was the best decision we could have made for our wedding. When we were on the hunt for a venue, our priority was to find a safe space for our wedding party, friends, and family belonging to the LGBTQIA and BIPOC communities. We did not want any person feeling unsafe or singled out on our wedding day. Having this confirmed and reassured that the venue and Amanda were inclusive made everyone’s experience phenomenal. In addition to this, it was difficult finding a place that wasn’t rustic or a barn. Many of the locations that aren’t barns also didn’t fit our vibe or they were unaffordable. For this venue, you get the best of both worlds: an elegant location that also feels like home, all while being affordable with excellent payment plans available. We received so many compliments on this location from so many different people. Whether it was the elderly family members or young friends, everyone was so impressed with the space and amazed by the ballroom for the reception. The layout of the space made it so easy for a seamless day. Amanda provided insight and assistance for everything we needed and our vendors loved her. Our wedding gallery could not be more perfect, because of this space and her hard work. This is now the top venue that we recommend to our couples! We are excited to continue to come back to capture more love stories at Mountain View Gardens and Ballroom and maintain a connection with Amanda for future couples.

I used this restaurant for my rehearsal dinner the night before my wedding in November 2025 and it was perfect. They had great communication and were willing to let us order from the entire menu when we kept our party below 20 people and chose our appetizers ahead of schedule. The waitresses were so kind and attentive, all the food tasted great, and the space we got to use was sectioned off and private (with a big enough screen to show the Alabama game of course), perfect for a rehearsal dinner! I would highly recommend using the Culinary Dropout for any dinner event.

Awarded Best of Zola
My Event DJ was perfect for our wedding! Working with them was so easy and everyone loved the music that was played! So lucky to find them on Zola and definitely suggest working with them if you want to use a DJ for your wedding.
