Every wedding tells a story, and I believe the flowers should feel just as personal. As a NC native and Pittsboro farmer-florist, I grow many of the flowers I design with, pairing the best of each season with your style, color palette, values and the details that matter most to you. Whether it's a favorite color, a cherished family memory or simply the feeling you want your guests to remember, I love translating those ideas into flowers that feel aligned with you. You don't need to know flower names or what's in bloom. That's where I come in. I guide you through the process, creating flowers that are beautiful, seasonal and very you.

I can’t say enough amazing things about Buck Naked Farm! The flowers for our fall wedding were stunning. I loved colorful dahlias. They perfectly complemented our barn wedding venue and the colors just popped against the bridesmaid dresses. Jennifer took the time to get to know us and added small details that reflected us —like tucking in blooms that were my grandmother’s favorite flower. It made the arrangements feel so special. She even custom grew the most amazing colored sunflowers for us! The entire process was seamless, She communicated clearly and often so I knew everything was covered. If you’re a bride who wants something different than run-of-the-mill flowers, Buck Naked Farm is IT.

Jimmy went above and beyond in his role as photographer. Not only were the photos absolutely perfect and returned in a timely manner, he did far more than take photos. He was attentive and made the experience fun. We clicked well with him and he understood our vibe. When something went wrong with our ceremony plan, he was the first to come and check in and help get me back in track to enjoy our special day. He cleared my plate from the reception so our speech photos wouldn’t be impacted, and he did a great job photographing our dogs who were not easy to corral. Thanks Jimmy for being amazing!

Joseph introduced himself to us BEFORE asking for any deposits or contract signatures. He listened to what we were looking for and worked with us to get the best playlist for the age range of our guests. One 19 year old, several in their 50's and the rest in their early 70's. More slow dances than fast. He also helped out the caterer and served iced tea when he saw the pitchers were empty! He even stayed after the reception had ended and helped clear tables. Joseph was fun and on top of everything. He even helped our photographer get some amazing shots (ours was her first wedding).

My fiancé (now husband) found Casie for us during the wedding planning process, and I immediately fell in love with her work! Her darker style was exactly what I was looking for and her wedding engagement package is extremely well priced. Working with her felt like meeting up with an old friend. I was very worried about how I would feel about posing and if I would look awkward and she did such an amazing job directing me in a way that felt natural. I have not received a picture from her that I do not like. Casie also made the planning process so easy. She even met with me over facetime to address some anxiety I was having regarding the timeline. I ended up adding 2 hours to the photography package (again, very reasonably priced). Overall, I genuinely have nothing bad to say about Casie and her work. She is a joy to work with, her work is incredible, and she is such a fun person to be around!

I’ve been a Raleigh, NC local since 2014—by way of Chicago, by way of military brat, so, all over. With a background in theater, I know how to read a room, anticipate moments, and blend seamlessly into your day while offering gentle direction.. An avid traveler and lifelong student of the world, I’m fascinated by other cultures, languages, and traditions—curiosity that naturally fuels my love for storytelling through photography. Behind the scenes, my Type A nature keeps every detail organized and flowing smoothly. Outwardly? Calm, upbeat, and ready to pivot. I’d love to document your story—and I can’t wait to hear from you.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you’re searching for a wedding photographer, look no further—you’ve found the best. Any couple would be incredibly fortunate to have Brighid from Oz Images capture their special day. We wholeheartedly give her a 10/10 recommendation. From the very beginning, Brighid impressed us with her professionalism, warmth, and creativity. She took the time to get to know us, understand our vision, and figure out exactly how to capture the images we would value. Her communication was clear, her pricing was reasonable, and every interaction was straightforward and professional. We weren’t interested in many posed or overly formal shots. She planned and executed a few beautifully composed portraits, but what truly blew us away were the candid moments she captured so effortlessly. These photos told the real story of our wedding—a heartfelt, joyful celebration shared with 300 of our closest friends and family. Brighid has a gift for recognizing and preserving the spontaneous, meaningful interactions that make a wedding so personal and memorable. She developed a playful yet respectful rapport with our wedding party, which was exactly what our personality-filled group needed! She became part of the celebration—not just an observer—sharing in our joy and reflecting it back to us through her lens. She captured the subtle dynamics of our relationships with grace, humor, and tenderness. During the ceremony and reception, Brighid worked like a photo ninja—always present, never intrusive. She caught genuine moments of connection: laughter, tears, shared glances—photos that make us feel like we’re reliving the day every time we look at them. Our final album doesn’t just show who was there; it reveals how deeply loved and supported we felt on that day. Her turnaround time was lightning-fast. We received a sneak peek within hours and the full, beautifully edited album shortly after. Her editing style is natural, vibrant, and timeless—it elevated every shot without making them feel overly processed. A particularly meaningful note: due to a last-minute illness, my parents couldn’t attend the wedding. Thanks to Brighid’s thoughtful coverage and the help of a little technology, they felt like they were right there with us. These images mean the world to us. We revisit our wedding photos often. They make us laugh, cry, and feel so grateful all over again. Having Oz Images document our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. Brighid didn’t just take pictures—she captured the spirit of our marriage and the love that surrounded us. We will treasure these images for a lifetime.

I’m a bit late in posting this since I just received my official photos. I was planning my wedding in NC in February 2026 while being out of town and didn’t know anyone for makeup. I came across Theresa Makeupbon the Knot website. I loved her natural look. I had my fears because of my dark skin tone, not everyone can handle this, but I got exactly what I wanted for my wedding day—I don’t usually wear makeup and didn’t want my appearance to feel different. Theresa was incredibly punctual, detail-oriented, and thoughtful. She even shared skincare tips with me months before the wedding, which I really appreciated. When I leave a review, I make sure it’s honest, so, I can confidently say Theresa truly gives her best to her clients. She made sure everyone was happy and took amazing care of my bridesmaids, they looked like princesses. The overall look was natural yet glamorous, and the makeup lasted all day despite heavy rain, dancing, and different lighting throughout the church. And the photos! Absolutely beautiful.

I felt so beautiful, even though I was nervous all morning. They were patient and encouraging the whole time. The photos of me and my dad before walking down the aisle are priceless. Every bride deserves this kind of experience. I’ll recommend them forever!

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,695
  • Serves West End, NC

In Raleigh, Just like in Durham, Chapel Hill, and throughout North Carolina, once the guests arrive …the wedding DJ is the most consquential wedding vendor that you'll hire. The average wedding puts 75%-80% of their event in their DJ's hands. That's why, when it’s time to celebrate and have fun, you can relax and enjoy your event with Stylus! Entertainment is the single most important part of how your wedding will be remembered. If your wedding DJ isn’t getting everyone of all ages involved, from your friends to your parents and grandparents, then they’re probably not playing the right mix for you.

Stylus S.E. was super easy to work with from start to finish. They were highly responsive and accommodating throughout the entire wedding planning process. On the day of, their DJ Spencer was absolutely amazing - he kept the dance floor packed all night long with a great mix of music that kept our guests entertained. The photo booth they provided was also a huge hit, with so many fun props and backdrops. Everything about their services was perfect, and we couldn't be happier with how our wedding turned out thanks to Stylus S.E.!

Our wedding day was seamless, without any mishaps, all thanks to Rachel! We went through a thorough planning process with her, in which she answered all questions effectively and gave us ideas about things we had never thought about. She understood the aesthetic we were looking for. All of her efforts really showed on our special day, making it the best time of our life!
