We’ve been with Nain Photography since 2020. The quality has been consistent and working with Natalie has been nothing short of amazing! She has photographed some of our most important life events.

My florals were my absolute favorite décor element from my entire wedding. They made me so happy because they were absolutely perfect, and I credit that entirely to Amanda’s dedication and collaboration with Emporio, the preferred floral vendor at Hard Rock Los Cabos. Florals were the wedding detail I cared about the most, and they also caused me the most worry. They hold such a special place in my heart because I believe they truly accentuate the beauty of a wedding. From the moment Amanda stepped in, she eased all my anxieties. She was dedicated, focused, and meticulous in her attention to detail. She was assertive in communicating my needs to the vendor, efficient in coordinating every step, proactive in addressing potential challenges, and direct in making sure my vision was honored exactly as I imagined. Her strong and trusted relationship with Emporio made all the difference. They clearly respect and value her, which ensured flawless execution and also saved me thousands of dollars. That kind of value comes from her experience, credibility, and deep commitment to her clients. Because of Amanda, my my most treasured design element was in the very best hands. If you have the opportunity to work with her, I recommend it wholeheartedly. She is worth every penny and more.

We had our wedding at Shadelands Ranch Museum in 2018 and couldn't have been happier with our decision! We had a few parameters to work within — a tight budget, a list of vendors we wanted to work with, and a large guest count. The staff at Shadelands were incredibly accommodating and easy to partner with. Since their policy allows food trucks and other mobile caterers, we were able to hire one of our favorite local BBQ restaurants to cater, which was a huge hit. The venue grounds are large enough to fit a sizeable group — perfect for our guests who brought children — they had plenty of room to run around on the lawn. In the summer, the venue adds string lights in the trees around their gazebo, creating a beautiful and romantic touch when the sun sets. The gazebo served as a beautiful centerpiece and the location for our photo booth. Our DJ had plenty of space to set up on the back patio, which doubled as the dance floor. The venue’s accessibility was incredible, with ample parking, clean restrooms, a kitchen, and a porch for the bride to ‘hide’ until the ceremony. And because the venue provided the tables and chairs, we only needed to rent table linens. Shadelands is the place to book if you want a beautiful and affordable outdoor wedding venue in Walnut Creek that can accommodate both your ceremony and reception. The attentive staff, accessible location, and flexibility around customization make it an ideal place to tie the knot!

I've been photographing weddings in the San Francisco Bay Area for over 16 years, and what keeps me coming back is the same thing that drew me in from the start: those fleeting, unguarded moments that you can't stage or recreate. The way you hold your breath before walking down the aisle. The look you exchange when you think no one's watching. The quiet, tender moments that happen in between all the big ones.

I have had the pleasure of working with Meg on countless weddings and shoots and I can honestly say after watching her in action for years that she is super talented, professional, and fun/easy to work with! She caters her photos to each client so it's personal and full of each couple's personality - even if you don't really like taking photos, Meg makes the process easy and fun! And the icing on the cake is that her work is absolutely beautiful - you'll be so excited to display your photos! If you're looking for a professional photographer who not only takes beautiful photos that you'll cherish for a lifetime, but is a pro who communicates really well with her clients, and really works with each couple to make their photos session personal to them, look no further - you wont regret it!

Golden Bell offers a unique musical blend that packs a high-energy punch! The DJ/live fusion band, or DJ/live band hybrid, is always anchored on a DJ set but supported by live musicians. With all the energy and hype of a live band and the flexibility of a DJ, you won’t have to decide between hiring a band or a DJ for your next event or wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
Okay, seriously, if you're planning an event and thinking about a band/dj hybrid, you have to look into Golden Bell Music. Our wedding on June 27, 2025, at Viansa Winery in Sonoma, CA, was everything we dreamed of and so much more, and honestly, a huge part of that credit goes directly to them. We spent 11 months planning every detail, and booking Golden Bell Music as one of our very first vendors was hands-down the best decision we made. The band/DJ hybrid concept? Pure genius! It absolutely delivers the best of both worlds, and they pulled it off flawlessly. But really, the biggest shout-out – and the core of this whole review – belongs to the phenomenal Marlon Aldana, our DJ and drummer. We first spotted him in action on Golden Bell's Instagram, and it was an instant "that's our guy!" moment. You can imagine our excitement when we found out he was available for our date! Working with Marlon from the very beginning was just an absolute pleasure. He wasn't just playing music; he was genuinely feeling the room, intuitively knowing when to let a song build or transition to keep the energy up. All of our "must-plays" were there, the do not-play was respected, and the dance floor never once emptied And talk about flexibility! We had a last-minute idea to add an extra instrument, and the Golden Bell team didn't blink. They jumped right in, helping us find the perfect addition without any issues. Plus, we had a separate violinist for our ceremony, and it was so impressive to see how effortlessly all the vendors collaborated. No drama, just smooth, professional teamwork, which really speaks volumes about Golden Bell's commitment to making your day seamless. Now, for the ultimate highlight: our after-party! We decided to do something a little different and host it in a wine cellar, and Marlon and his team elevated it beyond anything we could have imagined. When they brought in a fog machine, the entire atmosphere transformed. It wasn't just a party; it was an experience! That fog machine honestly MADE the party, turning the space into something truly epic. I genuinely can't picture it having the same incredible energy without it, so a massive thank you for that unexpected, perfect touch. And because we had a masquerade theme, I asked if the DJs would wear disco masks and they SAID YES and wore them the entire time, even after I told them they absolutely didn't have to for more than one song! It just created such an amazing vibe, and we've got the pictures to prove how much fun everyone had! There's just so much to appreciate about this incredible group. If you want your special day to be filled with fantastic music, seamless execution, and an unforgettable atmosphere, you absolutely have to choose Golden Bell Music. They truly are exceptional!

Vic with Lightfall Imagery was nothing short of incredible, and truly felt like such a special part of our entire wedding journey. We worked with her for both our engagement shoot, boudoir, and wedding day, so we really got to know her and that comfort and connection made such a difference. On the day of, she was everywhere in the best way, somehow capturing every angle and every moment without ever feeling intrusive. She was so thoughtful and quick on her feet, at one point even using my bouquet to hold down my veil in the wind so we could still get the perfect shot! And then she casually pulled out a drone to capture the most stunning video footage on top of everything else. Her creativity, energy, and attention to detail are unmatched. We love her process, where she shares the full unedited photos and we get to select the ones she will edit. We are absolutely in love with our photos and will cherish them forever!

My wife and I couldn't have been happier with our decision to choose Joey (Cello Joe) and Brandon to help make our special day sparkle. Their attention to detail, guided by years of experience, allowed us to have the wedding we envisioned while avoiding many of the common pitfalls we might have encountered without them. They had creative ideas, were responsive to all of our questions, and brough an awesome presence on our wedding day. We highly recommend choosing The Celebration DJ Group for your wedding!

Interstellar Films 
Rating: 5.0 (25 reviews)
  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $3,895
  • Serves Walnut Creek, CA

Films That Are Real, Candid & Authentically You. Every film of ours was created for one couple, and only them. We don’t follow a template or chase a certain style. Instead, we let the feeling of the day guide us. The way you move together, the energy of your celebration, the moments that unfold naturally, these are what shape the story. That’s why no two films look or sound the same. From the music to the pacing to the way we tell your story, everything is built around who you are and how you love.

My wife was super skeptical about hiring a videographer, so we ended up searching for one only 2 months before the wedding. We are so grateful that we found and hired Interstellar Films. I loved the selection of music for our video. On my wedding day, Sebastien was on time, professional, so friendly, and somehow managed to blend into the scene, even with all of their equipment and lights. Most importantly, I am IN LOVE with our final product!!! He captured exactly what we wanted from our wedding day - the wild dancing, emotional vows, poignant toasts, and the all encompassing love and excitement from our family and friends. Thank you so so so much for giving me a wedding video that I will cherish forever.

  • Serves Walnut Creek, CA

I’m Colin Pattison, owner and filmmaker at Featherstone Wedding Films. I film weddings because I believe in the power of marriage, and I have a passion for capturing special moments on film. I’ve helped countless couples create their ideal wedding film for over 10 years. My goal is to capture lasting memories through beautiful, personalized wedding films. From first consultation, to finished film, I’ll be with you every step of the way.

Colin was probably one of the easiest vendors to work with. We chatted on the phone to get to know him, sent him our deposit and that was that! We talked a bit leading up to the wedding, but he and my photographer communicated to get on the same page/ timeline so I didn’t have to stress much about that either. The day of, him and his team were wonderful all day. They themselves were professional, and all his gear was as well. One of the things I appreciated most about Colin was his ability to be everywhere to get footage, but he was secretive about it, so those that are shy on camera didn’t feel pressured. My videos I got were AMAZING. I don’t know how many times we have watched the videos together or how many I’ve watched it alone but, every time feels like the first. It’s beautiful work and truly captured our wedding day and our personalities. We also got raw footage from him that had us cackling. It’s awesome seeing the day again through both the finished product and the raw footage. Thank you Colin for everything. I highly recommend Colin to everyone!!

  • Serves Walnut Creek, CA

I'm Katherine, a wedding photographer based in Oakland, CA. With over a decade of experience and features in Vogue, Brides, The New York Times, and more, I know how to create wedding photos that don’t just look stunning — they feel like you. No trendy filters, no forced poses, just authentic moments that reflect who you are. I believe the best moments aren’t staged. They unfold naturally, in the quiet glances, the belly laughs, and those unspoken connections shared with your loved ones. My goal is to capture those raw, in-between moments that truly make your wedding day yours!

Katherine was amazing to work with! She shot both our engagement and city hall photos and we could not have asked for a better partner. She was super patient with us and gave us great direction since we were both a little awkward in front of the camera. She always came prepared and made sure at City Hall she was able to get great shots from all the key places we had discussed. Bonus points, our parents loved the experience and the pictures!

Redwood Canyons by Wedgewood Weddings is a venue I would highly recommend. When I was looking for a place to have my wedding I kept coming back to Redwood Canyons based initially on how beautiful the ceremony site was in the pictures. After doing some research I saw that the venue offered packages based on budgets that would help provide everything else we would need. I went for the first meeting and met with Allison. Allison ended up helping us through out the planning and day of process. She was wonderful. Allison explained all the packages and helped me customize one to fit my needs and budget, I did not have to have anything I didn’t need and I got everything I wanted for the budget I had. I was a little concerned that only having 3 months to plan the wedding would make things hard but Allison said no problem and it was not a problem. The wedding we perfect. Guests are still talking about how good the food was and how beautiful the Ceremony and Reception locations was. I would and have recommended this venue to friends and family. They will take are of all your needs and take the stress of wedding planning from you.

Dana is fantastic! On my wedding day, she did hair on 8 girls, each wanting different styles, which she executed perfectly. We finished on time and she gave me a little kit in case we needed to fix anything later in the evening. My hair looked amazing and lasted all night, even after hours of dancing! I would HIGHLY recommend her work for your special day!

Richard is a spectacular DJ. All he wants is for you to feel happy and that your needs are met. He was very laid back and easy to work with and communicate our preferences to. His timing the day of was excellent - he did a great job mc'ing for us, and the music was exactly what we wanted. He also had so many options for us to choose from with his skillset, we felt like we had a lot of options to customize what we wanted. We have heard nothing but good things from our wedding attendees about how great the music was. Dancing on the night of our wedding remains one of the happiest memories of my life, and it's thanks to Richard. 10/10!
