Abbe and her assistant Melissa were the best, an absolute dream team. The bridemaids all loved Abbe's energy, pace, and obviously the photos!

It doesn’t get any better than Signature DJs. We booked Signature DJs for ceremony/reception music, Photo Booth, and uplighting. Brandon and Kellie were more than helpful during the wedding planning process. Signature DJs periodically sent me emails to remind me of anticipated steps to keep me on track. I had already booked my Day-Of Coordinators, but had I not I definitely would have booked Kellie! On the day of our wedding, Signature DJs arrived early and easily set up. Meredith with the photo booth was amazing! Our guests loved the customized photobooth strips! We are so glad that we booked Signature DJs because our wedding would not have been as perfect as it was without their services!

Excited to collaborate on impressive videos that preserve cherished memories forever! Let's make your vision a reality!

Awarded Best of Zola
As a little girl I have always said that when I get married I want my wedding video to look like a movie to capture the love me and my husband have. Years ago I saw Henry work and I knew he would be the one to capture not only our love story but to give us the fairytale movie that I’ve always wanted. Fast forward now I’m engaged and the first person I booked was Henry. He answered right away. The initial meeting was amazing he asked us our love story, how would we like our video to be filmed. What do we like about each other? Ect..(I think he does that to get the couples vibes) He answered all of our questions. He listened to us. Throughout the process he communicated with us. Wedding day came and Henry was on time. Whatever we needed he assisted us with. He even helped my husband with a wardrobe malfunction what videographer you know that does that. He paid attention to every detail and made our wedding day stress free. While we was on our honeymoon we received a trailer and boy was we blown away from the voice over to the quality of the trailer the creative touch wow it was our own fairytale movie. We knew if the trailer look like that just imagine how the actual wedding video would look like. Henry did not disappoint his creativity shine through. He captured everything and then more. The cinematography was clean. The transition were amazing. The quality was absolutely incredible. (It was so good my dad asked what camera did he used so he can purchased one lol) It’s been six months and we are still in awe. We get goosebumps from watching the trailer . We get teary eyed from watching our beginning. And we laugh and smile from watching our family and friends have a good time. You only have one wedding day so why not have it be captured the best way ever. Henry captured something that will last a lifetime. We are forever grateful for him.

I booked Riverwood Designs for my May 2024 wedding, at The Maine of Williamsburg, for bridal party flowers and floral table arrangements, as well as a Day-Of Coordination package. Booking Joseph and Rob was one of the best decisions I made during my 2-year long wedding planning process. Joseph was a life-savior during the planning process, keeping me calm and confident that my day would be nothing but perfect. And it was exactly that. On the day of my wedding, Joseph and Rob arrived promptly and delivered the most BEAUTIFUL flowers. I am so glad that I chose to go with real flowers, as opposed to wood or silk flowers. The arrangements looked and smelled amazing. The proposal that we had worked on prior to the day of in no way did the actual flowers justice. They were even more amazing than I could have ever imagined. For the florals, we chose to include the orange flowers in only the bridal bouquet. Also including this same orange flower on only the groom’s boutonnière. This was the perfect way for me and my groom to feel special and different from the rest of our bridal party.

If you're looking for a band that is organized, energetic, talented, and personable, look not further. We had Fresh Take perform at my wedding with the addition of 2 horns & they were truly exceptional! Daniel, head of Fresh Take, was amazing during our planning process and the band was absolutely phenomenal during our wedding! We had seen this in a previous review so we asked the band to have the horns lead everyone outside to our cake cutting & had surprise fireworks. The 2 horns played a melody leading my husband and I, and our other guests outside. I will never forget the look on everyone's faces as the horns played - amazing! At the end of the night the trumpist and saxophonist also guided our guests out to the sparkler exit. It was the perfect extra touch to really - WOW- our guests! They even included some personal touches with our first song- learning the lyrics to "Love like crazy" and changing a few words making it increasingly intimate! Throughout the night and in the days after our wedding, it was a consistent theme that everyone LOVED our band - obviously my husband and I did too! I cannot thank Fresh Take Band enough for bringing the energy & intimacy on the most magical day of our life!

The only trouble is narrowing down which shots we want to get printed to display in our house! You will not go wrong with 1828 Collective and McKenna!

Hello! I’m Sharon and I own Sharon Elisabeth Photography. I feel so grateful every day that I get to capture the most heartfelt moments and feelings that occur during weddings as well as documenting the relationships between people who love each other so much – families, friends and couples! I love to tell the story of a wedding day and capture all the forms of love found there. It’s definitely not an “I have to go to work today” career. For me … it’s “I GET to go to work each day!" There is nothing I would rather do more than have my camera in my hands & working with wonderful people.

Sharon was our photographer for our engagement photos in March 2024 and our wedding in September 2024. Everything came out amazing. Sharon has a true eye for photography and she proved it to us in all her creative ideas! She delivered the photos to us when she said she would and does a great job picking out the best shots and editing. We received high res and web size versions!

I had an amazing experience with The Stylist Abroad! Ashley, the owner, was absolutely fantastic and was incredibly communicative for the entire process. She answered every single question right away, and gave so much insight! For the trial and on the day of my wedding, my girls and I worked with Kim (hair) and Jenna (makeup), and they were both amazing. So kind, so friendly, and clearly knowledgeable! I was deciding between two hairstyles, and Kim was happy to try both in my trial. I had a couple things I wanted to change with my makeup, and Jenna was more than happy to accommodate! I was incredibly pleased with both looks on my wedding day, and everyone looked incredible!! I was definitely very blessed with the weather on wedding day, so that also helps, but hair and makeup stayed in place fabulously! The cherry on top is that everyone was just so sweet and easy to talk to!! Made the start of the day so pleasant and relaxed, and it seems like all my girls had a great time, too! Would absolutely recommend!!

Stephanie is not only amazing at her job but also has a super down to earth, relaxing personality that makes you feel like you’ve known her for longer.

From the first introduction phone call to hugging her goodbye at the end of our wonderful wedding day, Makayla was Amazing. She heard my wishes and concerns about our wedding photos and helped me see her vision. And even got me in a rowboat! (Forever Grateful!) And the final results are breathtaking and I can’t choose a single photo I love more than others. They’re all above and beyond my expectations. I also want to say…Makayla kept me calm prior to the ceremony in ways she probably doesn’t even know she helped me. She exudes kindness and anyone near her feels it. You will not be anything but blown away when you hire Mak’s Captured Moments. I will be forever grateful we connected on Zola. I started with a wedding photographer and ended with a friend.

We will approach your special day as a huge collaborative effort.

I was lucky enough to have Manai photograph our special day this past July. Most of the wedding was a whirlwind, so I am so grateful to have such beautiful photos of our day to look back on. Manai was great to work with and captured the day in such a beautiful way. Even better than my wedding Pinterest board could have imagined!! I am not used to taking photos so I was pretty nervous at first but he had me laughing and put me at ease in no time. Photography is such an important part of your wedding day, and you want to make sure you pick someone great. That person is Manai!! You won’t be disappointed! Manai is such a professional and talented photographer. All my photos look like they belong in a magazine. They all came out so well. I have the most beautiful photos of not only me and my husband, but our friends and family having a great time. Thank you so much for capturing the most important day of our lives.
