The Landing at the Lone Girl was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, the team was incredibly timely, kind, understanding, flexible, and eager to make our day special. The space itself has a beautiful, slightly rustic-but not too much, casual elegance that we loved. They put up all of our decorations for us, and even provided giant Connect Four for the kids to play with - little touches that went a long way. Caleb, the event coordinator, was a great communicator and made us feel so welcomed, even letting us bring our big dog to the wedding. We could not have asked for a better experience or a more perfect venue. Highly recommend!

My name is Elliot Stokes and I am a photographer located in the Madison, WI area, but I work all across Wisconsin and Illinois. I have been drawn to the camera since I was young, but becoming a father has really shown me the magic behind capturing the most candid and beautiful moments of our lives. I started my journey into professional photography officially in the summer of 2019 and received my Bachelors of Fine Arts degree with honors in Digital Photography in the spring of 2022. I absolutely love what I do and look forward to every new experience and opportunity this journey takes me on!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough about how wonderful it was to have Elliot as our photographer for our wedding! Simply put - book Elliot for your next event! He is the best vendor we have ever worked with and I promise you will not be disappointed. Elliot is incredibly responsive - like anytime we had a question (which was often) he would be texting/calling us back within 10 min. It was so nice and really helped relieve a lot of stress throughout our planning. Elliot is extremely knowledgeable in his field of work and was extremely helpful in guiding all of our poses and providing insight on the best location spots and recommended order of events. Elliot prioritizes you on your special day and will do anything to get the best shots - he literally climbed a tree for us lol! He also kept a box of Q-tips on him at all times to help me blot my tears without ruining my makeup which was so so sweet. Elliot is also very efficient. He gets great shots super quickly and can work within your timeline. He literally had our sneak peeks and drone video uploaded to my phone the same day as our event. Overall, Elliot is extremely passionate about his work and will do everything he can to ensure you are happy with the result. We are obsessed with what we have seen so far and cannot wait to see the full package!

There are many types of wedding Videographers, and all of them combine art and storytelling to capture significant life moments. At Complete Weddings + Events Madison, our wedding Videographers bring the same dedication and attention to detail to our Videography services as we do to the rest of our wedding and event services. From major corporate get-togethers to fabulous downtown weddings, our event and wedding Videographers in Madison, Wisconsin and surrounding areas are ready to exceed your expectations and create memories that you’ll enjoy for years to come.

It was an amazing experience working with the three amazing people we were assigned for our wedding. We booked a photographer, videographer, and DJ through this company and I don’t think I could have asked for much more than what they did for us! Finding vendors for these three jobs was very important to me as a bride because I wanted to make sure it was going to be a stress free and memorable day. I wanted to make sure everything was captured and that friends and family would have the best time possible celebrating with us. To start with our photographer Sean, he is such an amazing individual and was such a light hearted and fun energy to have. He got along with everybody and was so patient with our youngest and oldest family members. The photos we received were amazing and captured so many great moments without feeling posed. Our videographer Jason captured such great moments for us and cracked so many jokes throughout the day. Our video is absolutely amazing and was pretty close to what I had imagined before receiving it. When your videographer willingly whips out a kart wheel to show off to a group of dancers, you know he’s passionate about his job. Lastly our DJ John was the perfect DJ for our party! He was so attentive and absolutely hilarious. An amazing MC and worked with me to create several surprises throughout the night. As a dancer and perfectionist, I could not have asked for someone to have read the room any better! I never had to ask for songs to be skipped and my guests felt so comfortable to approach him with requests. I don’t know if we could ever put into words how well they worked together. Everyone that we dealt with through this company made our experience so easy to manage.

We loved having Hoffman House as our catering vendor! Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the food and one guest even mentioned that it was the best wedding food he’s ever had! We chose the plated dinner option and had stuffed chicken caprese, baked ziti, and seared filet of sirloin as our options. And all options were delicious! We also had a slider bar as a late night snack and they were really yummy as well! We would highly recommend Hoffman house (:

This is probably going to be long because I can’t say enough good things about 10south. I got married on 9/6/2025 and it was the most incredible day ever. First, Audrey was our event coordinator and she did such a phenomenal job. I was probably the most annoying person with all my questions but she always got back to me so quickly and helped me out so so much. She made sure my vision would come to life. It was also amazing to have the ability to book our djs through them as well as some other add ons so we didn’t have to search (will be reviewing the djs on their page but wow they were great as well!!) The venue has the largest bridal suite out of all the venues I have seen (ones I toured and for weddings I’ve been a part of) which made getting ready feel so much less stressful. We had plenty of space to set up food and all the hair and makeup equipment we needed. The patio is a dream. We had our ceremony outside which was absolutely gorgeous. We then turned it into an area for cocktail hour which worked out amazing because it was so large for the amount of people we had. Of course the reception area is also amazing. The bar staff did incredible, I don’t think anyone had to wait in line for long at all. And it really helped having 2 bars during cocktail hour (Poppy is just adorable). Everything was magical, thanks to the 10south team and the way the venue is set up. I highly highly recommend getting married here!

I'd recommend Jaded Beauty Esthetics LLC to any bride looking for someone who actually cares about making you feel your best.

We had DJ KJ for our wedding and we were so impressed! He was extremely personable and easy to talk to. He chose the perfect song for each moment and we had numerous guests comment on how good he was. I highly recommend!

I’m Sage the Magicienne. I don’t just perform magic. I use it as a powerful tool to build immediate connections, create genuine laughter, and make lifelong memories. Based in Janesville, Wisconsin, I partner with corporate event planners, wedding coordinators, and private hosts throughout Madison, Milwaukee, and the Chicago area to elevate their gatherings. Weddings can be a bit awkward, especially if both your families don't know each other well yet. My magic turns those awkward family interactions into a moment of connection. Giving both sides something to break the ice, talk about, and create a unique memory together.

Sage performed for our Halloween party and she was fantastic! She peformed a variety of magic tricks for about 30 minutes and it was some of the best magic I've ever seen. I am, to this day, still figuring out how she performed some of the tricks! I cannot recommend her enough, if magic is what you're looking for, you've found it. Book her asap you will not regret it!

Hi, I'm Makenna, and I’m a Wedding + Lifestyle Photographer based in the Madison Metropolitan area! I am a midwest gal, born and raised, currently residing in Stoughton, WI. Most days you can find me hanging out with my best friend and husband, Chris, our daughter Scottie, and our dog, Sky. Other than my family and photography, I’m most passionate about music, dance and the arts in general. I’m also interested in clean skin care and beauty, sustainable fashion, supporting small businesses, and meeting/getting to know new people! I would love to get to know you more as a couple, and to photograph your wedding day!

It is so clear that Makenna puts her heart and soul into capturing memories. She put my partner and I at ease and made us look EXCELLENT - even though we describe ourselves as quite awkward on camera. Makenna was so supportive throughout the pre-wedding planning and even shared tips and tricks unrelated to photography to help the day go smoothly. A photographer is by your side for much of this special day, I HIGHLY recommend hiring Makenna to be that person. You will not regret it!
