Awarded Best of Zola
We found Madison because she was an Alumni from same school, UCF, as me. We booked her to do an engagement shoot (an hour outside of Orlando) and our photos turned out absolutely amazing. From that one interaction with her, it really felt like we knew her our whole lives. She is super nice, personable, and made us feel very comfortable right away. She also had so much knowledge about the area, and any questions that we had regarding the shoot. She planned and timed everything out so that we could get photos at one location, and then sunset photos by the beach 30 min away. And then when we were looking for photographers for our wedding (in Philadelphia), it was a no-brainer that we wanted to book her again to capture our big day. She came halfway up the coast and played a large role in making our day perfect. We planned the photography from 1000 miles away, and she was really communicative and helpful about the picture planning, and also just wedding planning in general. We ran into a timing issue with how the day was going to work out before the ceremony, and she helped us navigate that, and she worked to keep us on track throughout the night for the different photos that we wanted. She knew what to do & what not to do in the Church. She also worked well alongside our videographer. Ultimately, we are very happy with our experience with Madison, and the wedding photos she took turned out absolutely amazing.

Lorraine & Staff When I found The Garden Ballroom, I knew it was the venue for us. Both my new husband & I work a lot of hours, and didn’t have much time during the week to plan our wedding. We used their all inclusive package, it made planning a breeze. We found that Lorraine was very accommodating to us, as we had a few hiccups since we were planning from afar. We drove for two hours to do the important meetings in person, and a few on the phone. Day of the wedding, it was easy to kick back and trust the Garden Ballroom had it under control. If there was ever a problem, I had no idea. All my guests loved the venue and had wonderful things to say. We stayed at the Staybridge Suites around the corner, and it made it so easy! I cannot say enough nice things about both Lorraine, Alfredo, and the staff at The Garden Ballroom. Everyone we worked with was so kind and wonderful to speak with. My guests spoke highly of the venue and staff as well. The venue itself was beautiful and charming. There are so many options for decorations, Lorraine will be able to capture your vision. I scrolled through their Instagram, and sent them DM's when I liked something in particular. Be sure to follow them and watch their stories & posts if you book! You won't be disappointed booking at this venue. While the building itself doesn't have its own parking lot, there is ample parking nearby. None of my guests had a problem. Catering The Catering was good! We selected for the Italian Menu, as we knew it would be a crowd pleaser. During the tasting we provided some feedback, and it was resolved. Catering was also able to accommodate our vegetarian guests by making sure the meatballs were on the side; which was a big deal to us. I know not all catering companies will do alterations, so it was nice to have it. We also had a gluten free guest, and I was happy to hear that I could order her a special plate. She gave it a 10/10 too! The food was delicious and I was hearing compliments from everyone. DJ For our DJ, we had Carlos. We were not sure if any of our guests were going to get on the dance floor. So we told him to go with the flow. We also bought some LED foam light sticks. Carlos did a fantastic job! We had people up on the dance floor the whole time. My guests loved the music selection. Being able to share songs from a Spotify playlist made sending our song selections so easy.

My name is Mary and I own and operate Mary Marsh Media with the help of my amazing partner Wiresh. I grew up in a small town outside of Virginia Beach and moved to Central Florida in 2013. I have been shooting for the past 15 years and am so grateful to have had the support of my family, friends and clients. I am primarily a wedding photographer but I have a passion for capturing beauty in every form and I just LOVE love. Being chosen to capture the most precious moments is the biggest honor of my life and I know that I'm lucky to be one of the few people who absolutely loves what I do for a living.

We had the most magical elopement in the hills of Tennessee, at a local bird sanctuary, and it wouldn't have been the same without our incredible photographer, Mary! From the very first email, her communication was absolutely excellent. She was prompt, clear, and always happy to answer our (many!) questions. Planning an elopement or wedding can be stressful, but she made the process so smooth and easy. Beyond her amazing communication, her talent behind the camera is simply breathtaking. She perfectly captured the intimate and natural feel of our ceremony. The photos are stunning – the light, the composition, the way she captured the emotion of the day… everything was just perfect. Looking at them, we’re instantly transported back to that special moment. She has a true gift for capturing not just images, but the feeling and atmosphere of a place and time. She was also so flexible and adaptable on the day itself. The bird sanctuary provided a stunning backdrop, but also presented some unique challenges (like navigating uneven terrain and climbing a mountain while she had a broken foot!!!). She handled everything with grace and professionalism, and her positive energy was contagious. It felt like having a friend there with us, celebrating our special day. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only incredibly talented but also a joy to work with, look no further. We wholeheartedly recommend her for any wedding or elopement, especially if you're looking for someone who can capture the beauty of nature and the intimacy of your special moment. We will cherish these photos forever!

DJ Eric was incredible and kept the dance floor full all night long! He knew exactly how to read the crowd and keep the energy going. We also had a violinist for our ceremony who was amazing, and the saxophone player during the reception was such a fun and unique surprise for our guests. Everything flowed perfectly, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!
