We absolutely loved our venue. It was gorgeous inside and out. We had endless compliments from our guest. The vendors were awesome to work with all of our pictures that I’ve seen have been beautiful. The communication with the owner was also great! The only thing I can complain about is in the bridal suite where the see-through domes are were beautiful for pictures, but when we went back after the wedding to clean up, there was no lighting in there. Nothing was lit up. We had to scurry to try to put some of the lamps on and use flashlights. I don’t know why the lights were not plugged in and no one was in sight to help. Due to that we are still missing a lot of the things from the suite from shoes to makeup. One of my bridesmaids is still missing an entire bag of jewelry and perfumes. We are 3 hours away and while they did find some of our things it wasn’t till we left the area. It was very chaotic trying to pack up in the dark other than that the venue is gorgeous. I’m sure it was just a problem and I didn’t have anyone to contact at the time but just a heads up to make sure your organized before you leave the suite!

I first realized that I loved photography back in 2011 when a couple friends and I went to Jacksonville beach. That is where I took my first favorite photo on the beach. My friend made a joke saying she found her personal photographer because the photo was so good. I was always the friend that love taking the photos, getting all the crazy angles laying on the ground, standing on top of things doing everything to get that perfect shot.

Trey was lovely to have at my sister in law’s wedding. Communication was great, photos turned out amazing! We loved how he was vocal about his vision for the shots and how to execute it. We made sure he was fed that good Filipino food!

I’ve been a DJ in Gainesville and the surrounding communities for over 20 years. I worked for the largest DJ company in the area for over 8 years, gaining valuable experience in working all sorts of weddings, parties and special events. After earning the reputation as one of the most respected DJs in the business, I decided to venture out on my own and create Wayne’s World.

We originally thought we would just create a playlist on our phone and make do for the wedding reception music, but as the date approached, we realized we wanted a professional DJ to keep the flow of the evening, make announcements, open the floor for toasts, and start the bouquet and garter toss, in addition to playing the music. We are so glad we made the decision to hire Wayne's World Entertainment as it took a huge weight off of our shoulders during the reception. The consultation was thorough and helpful, and he asked questions we hadn't even considered. Plus, he was one of the most affordable DJs we looked into, and we can't imagine what more expensive DJs could possibly provide that he didn't. He exceeded our expectations and then some!

In the past decade and a hald I have been blessed to travel near and far to work with amazing couples and tell their love stories through my captured images.

I can't recommend Sweet Serendipity enough. As a wedding planner, when I hear my couple is working with Jaime, I automatically know they are in great hands. She is so easy to work with, detailed, makes everyone feel comfortable, and produces amazing photos! If you are considering hiring Sweet Serendipity, stop considering and do it!!! You won't regret it!

Getting to capture other people's love, joy, & unique style on camera as an career has been a dream come true. I am so thankful for the opportunities & people I've been able to meet! I am a wife, girl mom of two, homeschool mama, book nerd, thriftaholic, love paddleboarding & generally am happiest outside.

From our first conversation, the team at Eighteenth Hour Photography was a pleasure to work with. They were incredibly timely in their communication, listened closely to our preferences, and were truly amazing at capturing all the special moments of our wedding day. Their professionalism and easy-going nature put us at ease, and the final photos exceeded our expectations. We would highly recommend Eighteenth Hour Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.
