Field Trip Flowers was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! Jenny’s attention to detail and organization made the entire process stress-free, and her flowers were stunning. She grows the most beautiful blooms, and the florals at our wedding were exactly the whimsical, romantic vibe we envisioned. Jenny went above and beyond, especially on the wedding day, setting up our chuppah in the middle of a heavy downpour without missing a beat. Her dedication and talent blew us away, and we can’t recommend her enough!

We had the best day/night of our lives and I have City Winery to thank for that. The staff was immaculate, they were on top of literally everything. My guests and I did not have to worry or lift a finger. The venue was set up exactly how I wanted. We had no issues with the food or cake or bathrooms or the bar. I received SO many compliments from my guests about how amazing the venue was. Lerika and Kylah were on their A game the entire wedding planning process day of and I was stressing about it for nothing because they covered all the bases and let nothing fall through the crack. I really couldn't have asked for anything more.

Matthew Rigby Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Amenia, NY

I started photographing weddings over 8 years ago and was influenced by the two great passions in my life at the time: landscape photography and teaching. My love for both deeply influence my wedding photography because I find inspiration in both the natural setting of a wedding as well as special moments between people. When I document weddings I am in all places at once, constantly searching for great light to highlight beautiful settings as well as the heartfelt, emotional moments...your wedding day deserves to be documented in all its glory and beauty. When I have free time I love cooking, traveling, brewing beer, hiking, and running.

Working with Matt was an incredible experience. From the moment we found his website, we were immediately drawn to his style. About a month before the wedding, he took the time to go over every family and bridal party photo combination we wanted, creating a detailed, organized list. He also asked about any special moments or details we wanted captured, ensuring nothing was missed. On the wedding day, Matt was exceptionally organized and efficient. The whole process felt seamless, which meant we spent less time posing for group photos and more time enjoying our day. He captured everything we asked for—and more. When we received the photos, we were absolutely blown away by the quality and quantity. Every special moment we could have imagined was captured beautifully. Matt’s eye for composition, his artistic style, and the way he brings out colors in his photos really showcase his talent. If you're looking for an incredible photographer, we highly recommend booking him as soon as possible!

They answered our questions quickly, and were extremely flexible and helpful the week of our wedding. We were able to bring up boxes earlier in the week, set up the day before our wedding, and had private access to the grounds/taproom on our wedding day. As a queer couple, we also loved that Bad Seed partners with Big Gay Hudson Valley year-round, so we already knew they would be a queer-affirming space and our wedding day was no different. Everyone we spoke to / worked with helped make our wedding a magical experience.

I frequently travel all over the Hudson Valley, Westchester, the Catskills, and beyond, providing timeless on-location wedding day hair services. I am committed to making all clients look and feel their best. My goal is to help you achieve your vision for bridal hair and have you looking and feeling like the most beautiful version of yourself day of.

Jennifer was incredible - if you’re looking for a very reliable, extremely talented hair stylist for your wedding day, look no further. Jennifer was amazing throughout the entire process- she heard me out on everything that I wanted for my wedding day hair, she answered my one million questions, she did (both) styles I wanted during our trial, and she gave me the wedding hair of my dreams. On top of all of this - she traveled from the hotel where we were getting ready to my venue and did hair touchups throughout the first look and photos, and then transitioned my hair style from down to up between the ceremony and reception. This service was such a game changer for me - it was a humid day so having pre-ceremony touchups was amazing - and having my hair up for the reception and dancing was ideal. Jennifer is truly the best and also so fun to be around on wedding day. I can’t thank her enough!!

Brandon, Fernando, Anna and the rest of the PK team did an absolutely outstanding job. From the get go, they were so professional, kind and accommodating. We are big foodies and were really wanting the food at our wedding to reflect our taste and for our friends and family to feel like they were at the best dinner party ever. We had a hard time narrowing down our menu from their extensive list of options as every dish sounded better than the last. Our jaws dropped when we had our tasting as the dishes were as amazing as they sounded. We have had so many of our guests tell us how incredible the food was at our wedding and how special it felt. We couldn't agree more.

Our front of house team drives the success of each event and they take very seriously, the needs of our guests.

My now-husband and I are big foodies! He also works in the restaurant industry, so having great food at our wedding was our top priority. We did a lot of research, looked into all of our venue's recommended vendors, and did tastings with 4 different caterers! Fig and Pig came out on top, not just for the amazing food, but for the team - you could just tell that they really cared about both back of house and front of house, and have put together a team of people who work so well together, who care about the food, have great attitudes and love the wedding business. We loved chatting with Holly at our tasting, and Tammy was on top of every little detail throughout the process. The selection of food was incredible, and they were even open to making customizations. We kept the food coming all night from the Fried Chicken Station at cocktail hour - a crowd favorite, don't miss it! To a late night snack of pretzels and dips, knowing that no one would leave hungry. Our guests are still raving about the food, including our chef friends, saying it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. Also, try the family style dinner! Everyone loved the social way the food was served and enjoyed, and our guests are loved getting to try a little bit of everything. Do yourself a favor, and go with Fig and Pig, you won't regret it!

Hi, Thanks for reading! Here's my photography short story: 2017, after 13 years of teaching, I said goodbye to the classroom and pursued Olympic weightlifting photography- my company was Everyday Lifters. Shortly after, I launched my wedding business. The Long Version: Weightlifting has taken me to places like Turkmenistan, Germany, & across the country! The weightlifters started getting married, and along the way, I received training to advocate for diverse bodies as a photographer. During this time of transition, I started taking documenting courses through the International Center of Photography and work on documenting local stories.

I have reached out to Viviana in 2019 for our wedding in May 2020. She was accommodating and gave us a lot of information and We just clicked right off the bat. Our wedding was postponed due to Covid and she was so helpful along the way and making the rescheduling as easy as possible from her end. We got married July 2021 Viviana was amazing. My fiancé and I are not big in to pictures but Viviana made it easy and the pictures were absolutely amazing. Throughout the entire day guests would comment on hell she was all over the place getting such great pictures. She even got pictures that I had no clue she even took and when I received all of our pictures was amazed at what an amazing job she did. I would recommend her to anyone.

Let's not just capture moments; let's craft an experience where, perhaps, we'll both discover a new friend in the making.

I had hired a photographer for budgetary reasons and about two weeks before my wedding panicked because I wanted another style of photography. Anita literally saved the day, thank god she was available! She worked so flexibly with the other photographer, capturing some of my absolute favorite photos of the entire day.

Its been a year and people are still talking about our magical arrangements and ceremony arch!

We have been performing as a band since 2003, when Jordan Shapiro formed the band with some close musician friends in Brooklyn, NY. Since then, the band has performed at hundreds and hundreds of concerts, weddings, festivals, parties, kids birthday parties, and various other kinds of family oriented events. We have an extensive songlist of over 300 songs, drawing from all styles of music, including traditional folk/bluegrass, as well as classic rock, pop, jazz and country. The band has also released 3 full length albums of original music, ranging from progressive bluegrass/newgrass instrumentals to goofy kids songs.

All of our guests commented that the music at our wedding was lovely and really tied the whole event together. Our venue did not allow DJ's or amplified sound and Astrograss had no problem playing everything acoustically. They were really great communicating before our event. They learned 5 songs at our request and let us pick plenty others for them to play from their extensive repertoire. They even coordinated with our friend (who is a singer) who wanted to sing something for us which ended up being one of the highlights of the night.

Phoenicia Diner offers a unique and retro setting for weddings, combining vintage charm with modern comforts. The venue’s cozy interiors and exceptional service make it an ideal choice for couples looking for a memorable celebration. With customizable menus and flexible event spaces, Phoenicia Diner ensures a personalized experience. Whether you’re planning an intimate gathering or a larger reception, this venue provides a charming and distinctive backdrop for your special day.

Phoenicia Diner went above and beyond when communicating with my wife and I about options, and assisted us through the entire process. It was more difficult getting my suit tailored than arranging to have our wedding here. The food was outstanding and all our guests loved it, and they even made great NA beverages because my wife and I don’t drink (they ended up being the most purchased drink at the bar, actually). Aside from how good everything there was, the price is so reasonable when you consider you’re getting married in one of the most popular places in the Catskills with awards and nods from huge publications like NYT. It was so special to get married in the diner, and I would pick it all over again if I had to. I’ve been to a number of weddings at fancy places with bad food and atmosphere with nothing special about it. The diner was the opposite of that- excellent food, really fun atmosphere, and incredibly special.

Ahh you made it this far and I am so happy that you are here. Come get to know me a little bit better… I am a Hudson Valley photographer who occasionally dips their toes in NJ too. Having fun and capturing special moment with your loved ones and families is what makes my day. I am a girl mom to my favorite tiny human RyRy and a fire fighters’ wife and when you don’t see me behind a camera or working my full-time job as a graphic designer, I am usually soaking up the sun at the beach or outdoors doing something fun with my family.

I cannot say enough good things about Katie! She was so wonderful to work with, and her work is absolutely STUNNING! I'm totally obsessed with my wedding photos, and how she captured everything that day. She and her assistant Lauren were so lovely and fun! From the first phone call, I knew I had to book with her. We clicked right away, and she gave a rough rundown of how the day would go, which made me feel at ease. It rained the day of my wedding, and at first I was really upset because I'm such a fall girl and I was really looking forward to getting those rich fall colors in my photos. Well, we still took pictures outside and Katie did NOT disappoint! As I said, I'm totally obsessed with my photos, and the ones we got outdoors still captured the fall colors and aesthetic I wanted. All I can say is "WOW!". I highly recommend working with Katie for your wedding!

Amber was extremely communicative and every time I reached out to her, I felt like I was talking with a friend. She accommodated all of our requests and got every shot that we wanted in a shortened time frame since we did not want to do a first look. Our photos were delivered to us within a timely fashion and we even got a sneak peek within 24 hours of our wedding. The photos were top notch and better than we could ever have imagined. I have been to many weddings and seen many wedding photos and I can truly say that Amber has a unique eye for capturing the absolute best shots and you will not be disappointed with her.

It can host up to 150 guests comfortably inside the barn, with additional space on the deck for cocktail hour and an adjacent lawn area for your ceremony. There is also an additional lounge seating area if some of your guests would like to relax with a bit of quiet time. Antique chandeliers accent the hardwood floors, walls and beams providing the rustic character that compliments the temperature controlled AC and heat to enable us to provide year-round events. In addition to the barn, deck, and ceremony space, the onsite 4 bedroom (7 queen beds) restored farmhouse is included in the venue for the weekend. A Friday check in enables you to prepare yourself for the big day and set up the space in the barn with any decor. The house is yours for the entire weekend for up to 8 guests. It works perfectly as a bridal suite for everyone to get ready.

The Ryan Family Farm is a PERFECT place for rustic barn style weddings. The venue boasts so many beautiful features that allow for amazing photo opportunities and having a great time. The Barn itself is amazing with lots of nooks and crannies for privacy but also spacious enough to allow guests to feel comfortable. The Lake makes for a beautiful backdrop for ceremony or photos. It is a very pressure free experience from start to finish. The team there is a pleasure to work with and if there is a service they don't provide they are quick to reccomend someone who can which makes for a very stress free experience!

As a photographer, I want to capture your happiest moments and your greatest achievements. I absolutely love working with people and creating long-lasting relationships. Making people laugh and have fun is something that comes naturally to me. I want to create authentic moments, bring magic to adventures, and make beautiful memories that will last a lifetime. So, can I help you capture your story?

I had a very clear vision of what our wedding would look like, particularly from a photo point of view. And even under a constant cloud of rain, Kelly Jean captured our day better than I could have imagined. We were already blown away by the engagement shoot Kelly did for us back in December 2022, but our wedding day photos were the real prize. Our whole gallery stunningly represents the moody, romantic look that drew me to Kelly Jean’s photos in the first place. I thought the rain would ruin the outdoor wedding we’d dreamed of for the last year and a half. But Kelly Jean knew exactly how to turn the weather into something truly wonderful — and the rain became the most beautiful backdrop for our ceremony photos. On top of that, the weather didn’t stop Kelly from committing to every detail of our day. She was a total pro (geared up in rain boots and a rain jacket) through every part of the wedding and knew exactly how to shift away from sunny day photos to what worked for rainy weather. We are FOREVER grateful we found Kelly Jean and have all these stunning memories to hold onto for life. Her unique, artistic approach and attention to detail truly shines through every photo. We haven’t been able to stop looking through our gallery and reliving every special part of our day!

Let’s partner to create the nature-inspired wedding of your dreams—chic enough for your friends, and comfortable enough for your grandparents. Whether it’s a massive party or intimate gathering, the Cedar Lakes property can accommodate as many guests as your event requires, with overnight lodging for over two hundred. Our style blends rustic elegance with nature, so guests enjoy a sleepaway camp vibe with all the luxuries of a 5-star hotel—steaming rain showers and feather down beds included. In-house chefs create seasonal menus with produce grown in our onsite organic garden, while our craft cocktails please any spirit connoisseur. Choose from indoor or outdoor settings to hold your ceremony and reception, each one with a view of tree-lined lakes and stunning mountains. Your wedding weekend package includes full access to the property, including lakes, pools, hiking and biking trails, and bonfire pits. We strive to make certain each wedding is specially tailored to fit the couple.

We got to know Cedar Lakes by attending winter weekends and pop-up dinners while planning our wedding. Frankly, we worried that was a mistake as we got close to our wedding day -- after we had experienced CLE's hospitality a few times, our expectations were through the roof. Turns out, not a problem. With the help of the people at Cedar Lakes and our incredible team of vendors, despite our anticipation, we were absolutely floored. It was beyond perfect. The people at Cedar Lakes - each and every one of them - embody a blend of warmth and professionalism I've never witnessed anywhere. They treated every guest like family, every event went off exactly as planned, and if there were any problems that arose during the day, we never heard about them. At every turn, the CLE team added unique surprises that matched our own and our guests' style perfectly. We left (reluctantly) on Monday morning feeling as though we'd made friends at CLE, and have been treated like family every time we've returned. This is really a special place for us, and I can't emphasize enough how much of that comes from each and every person who works so hard to make CLE what it is. The food gets its own paragraph. This isn't wedding food, and its not restaurant food. It's some of the best I've had anywhere, and the CLE team executes it perfectly whether for 2 or 200. Not only is the food insanely delicious, but it is plated beautifully in a way that compliments your decor and is always paired with perfect specialty cocktails, wines, and other beverages. This was a huge reason why we chose CLE, and we are still hearing about each and every meal from our guests. All that said, the best part about this venue is the setting - it is a surreal environment to be surrounded by friends and family for a weekend, and enabled us to spend quality time with the people we love during our wedding. We can't imagine a better set-up than CLE. Having accommodations for nearly the entire wedding on site (and being there for the whole weekend) allowed us to be truly present with our guests. We were able to share some meals and downtime with our friends and family in a more causal settings, and we felt like we were able to be a part of the weekend our guests experienced (which, honestly, we are still a bit jealous of -- sports fields, two pools, a beer garden, not to mention the lake and the blob). It warms our hearts to hear over and over from our guests, even to this day, that it was the most fun they've ever had at a wedding. All in all, we looked at a lot of venues, and I cannot imagine having had our wedding anywhere else. This will forever be one of our favorite places on earth, and we're thrilled to see what's next for CLE and their team. It doesn't get any better than this.

Every Little Detail Wedding & Event Planning 

5.0

  • Planner
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $7,977
  • Serves Amenia, NY

Owners Danielle DeFreest and Matt Marvullo opened Every Little Detail in the spring of 2012 with one goal in mind- to create pure and unique moments that are unforgettable. Danielle started out in the service industry as a teenager, and after graduating with a master’s degree in special education, decided to continue her career in service. Matt spent 24 years in the service industry, catering weddings and galas under master-chefs at 5 star venues throughout the country. In 2013 they asked long-time friend Kayla to help them at a wedding, and by the time the reception ended she realized she absolutely loved it. She is now a co-owner.

Danielle from Every Little Detail was amazing and contributed to the absolute success of the most perfect wedding day. We hired Danielle as a partial planner after deciding (thank goodness) that we could not plan a wedding ourselves. Danielle was there every step of the way. She tended to be 2 steps ahead of us. Ahead of the wedding she'd reach out and ensure we were on track. ELD provided an amazing online tool that contributed to this success to track costs, plan seating, and keep all of our wedding documents in one place. Danielle helped us find some amazing vendors and was especially key in the 60 days ahead of the wedding, finalizing details, coordinating with vendors, and providing great details into what we should expect and prepare for. Day of ELD was even more amazing. The venue said ELD was one of the best planning companies they ever worked with - extremely on top of everything and so seamlessly coordinating every detail (no pun intended!). Every Little Detail was a joy to work with and they helped us create and execute a magical and truly perfect wedding day. I could not recommend them more.

Your wedding day is one of the most important events in your life. Let us customize flowers to your wedding vision and give you the wedding of your dreams. We are a local family owned business that has been part of the community since 1966. From small to large, weddings are our passion. Let us be a part of your special day. Call us to schedule a free consultation or an informal chat as to your floral needs.

The flowers at our wedding were absolutely stunning! My initial meeting with Debbie was wonderful, she is so knowledgable and really listened to me, used my reference photos, and took time to show us photos of work, pull out fresh flowers from the back, and go over every detail (ribbon color and style, pin style, bouquet size, bouquet shape, containers... etc.). I have a huge appreciation for the work that Flowers by Jo-Ann put it because I cannot begin to understand all of the thought/timing and artistry that goes into floral arranging. It is a true art combined with precise planning! I am so appreciative of all the work Debbie did after our initial meeting, which included sharing photos of available flowers and colors with me to get a good sense of what I liked. The entire planning process was transparent. If a particular flower I liked was costly it was discussed upfront immediately. If the season wasn't right for a specific flower I referenced, Debbie let me know immediately and found alternates to work within my color palette that were equally as beautiful. I can't stress what a great experience it was to sit down with Debbie, to have an open discussion, feel like I was listened to, look at photos, look at different flowers, and have a very collaborative experience when creating the vision for our wedding flowers. I felt that everything was customized based on what we liked. I trusted Debbie and the team at Flowers by Jo-Ann and the result was more beautiful than anything we had imagined. Friends and family complimented our centerpieces all night, and one friend said, "This centerpiece is SO YOU, I can't get over it!". I was equally thrilled with my bouquet and loved everything the team put together for us. Thank you so much Flowers by Jo-Ann, you helped make our day absolutely beautiful!

I'm Alex. I spend my free time with my husband and our dogs Conor & Belle. I'm lucky to live in the Hudson Valley surrounded by amazing nature and upstate lifestyle. Art is something that I fell in love with at a young age and has always carried me through life- it lead me to photography. The mixture of art and emotion is one of the things I love most about wedding photography. When you look through your collection of photos I want you to feel and see the emotion, love and fun you had on your best day ever.

Alex is AMAZING. Her photos left us in awe — I was so impressed by how she listened to my vision and adapted her style accordingly. Most of all, though, Alex excels in all things related to running a business — she’s prompt in email responses, professional with her contracts and payment process, and goes above and beyond to connect you with resources for a successful day (a last minute coordinator, in my case). This is what really sets her apart from other vendors in my opinion. Run, don’t walk, to hire Alex for your wedding!

Authenticity focused visual Storyteller for those who've found their one wedding photography services based in Hyde Park, NY, look to Erin Braden Photography for your big day. This business combines experience, artistry & professionalism.

I met Erin 2 years ago when I booked a boudoir session for myself and my husband. It was such an amazing experience; Erin's studio is beautiful, and she made me feel 100% comfortable. Her work is absolutely amazing, and you can tell she loves what she does. Everyone I shared these photos with were amazed at how beautiful the photos came out and needless to say my husband was very happy. A few months after I did another boudoir session with Erin for one of her promotional projects which I could not turn down. These sessions are just so fun an empowering, I was so touched she asked me to be a part of this and it definitely won't be the last time I do it either! My wedding was the following year and of course I needed to ask Erin to be our photographer. Erin & Ben did our engagement session that we used for our invites, and I will cherish this forever. Erin & Ben make a great team and really capture the moment. Our Wedding as a bit hectic and Erin & Ben were great at handling the chaos and my annoying family very well. Again, our photos came out absolutely perfect, they all are timeless and priceless pieces. Seriously, if you want great photos and to work with great people, its Erin. I cant wait to continue to work with Erin for years to come!

I like to find beauty in the balance between the shadows and the light. They are rarely inseparable. They are complex and totally opposite and yet they can not live without the other. Just like real connection. What is real is beautiful. Only love is real. Your wedding day is important. To you. To your families. To me. And I don’t take it lightly. I understand that you’ve never done this before and you may not even know where to start! Don’t worry- I got you!

Finding a good photographer was high on our priority list for vendors. We got married outside in the Catskill Mountains and as such we wanted a photographer capable of capturing the depth of the forest. After looking through Sam's portfolio we knew she was good, but after working with her and seeing her work firsthand we can say she's the best. Getting your photo taken can be awkward, especially given the high stakes of a wedding. But Sam is able to make you feel immediately comfortable while simultaneously taking the most stunning photos you'll ever see. We also had a connection session with her, which we would highly recommend so that you can know how she works - very fun and relaxed, but professional. Sam helped us outline the entire day of the wedding, and based on her knowledge the day went off without a hitch. We're so grateful she agreed to work with us!

Her photographs are beautiful and they capture the emotion of the moment. She works quietly, diligently and captures every moment of the day. She is calm, professional and works very hard.
