MARS TAKES PHOTOS 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Serves Arverne, NY

Hi! I’m Marci, but I also go by Mars. I’m a photographer who specializes in analog film photography, but I also offer digital photography and am typically shooting both on a wedding day. My greatest inspiration comes from organic moments, lived-in details, cinematic storytelling and human connection — I take all these influences into consideration when photographing a wedding day and like to consider my approach documentary with an editorial flare.

We loved our photos from the elopement, and we are sure we’ll love the rest of the wedding photos when they come back. Thank you for everything. You had such a calming presence, and your work is exquisite! I’d recommend Marci to anyone looking for documentary style photography of their wedding day.

Lulo Floral

  • Florist
  • Serves Arverne, NY

Creative studio in the heart of Bushwick, infusing New York City with unique, light hearted, show stopping arrangements. We express ourselves through the art that we create, embracing every detail to craft the ultimate floral experience. Playful, adventurous, unconventional & always fresh; its the Lulo way.

Lulo Floral was seriously the best thing about our wedding (minus the whole getting married to my favorite person part!) Not only are Lu and Lauren insanely creative, talented, and totally organized but they are also just incredible, fun, kind people that you want to be around, especially when it comes to planning your wedding. They went above and beyond for our day and created the most STUNNING, unique, colorful, cool, quirky florals I have ever seen. People have not stopped talking about them. It was raining all day for our mainly outdoor wedding, but it didn't stop them from making everything perfect. Seriously, OBSESSED is an understatement, hiring them is the best decision you will make, I promise.

I just want to start out by saying my fiancé and I are the literal worst when it comes to being in front of a camera. We’re awkward, we’re stiff & we joke too much lol. When looking for a wedding photographer I wanted to find someone of course who had talent and beautiful editing skills but I also wanted to be comfortable, I wanted something personal with my photographer. And boy did I hit the jackpot with Mina! Her skills are INCREDIBLE. Our photos are absolutely stunning and I’ve received so many compliments. Not only that but we received our photos so quickly. A lot of people only give you the bare minimum edited photos but she edited almost every single one!! I absolutely love her to death, she made my fiancé and I feel so comfortable that we were able to open up and I feel like she truly captured who we were. Not only did I secure the best photographer but I’ve also made a lifelong friend. 10/10 recommend

Jamaal (J. McKenzie) has been described as an ever-evolving romantic, a perfectionist and a serial creative. With a perspective deeply rooted in expressive art-forms such as musicianship & spoken word, Jamaal approaches every story with an unwavering respect and veneration for each moment. Bred in Brooklyn, New York and tempered in a variety of cities across the vast United States and South America, Jamaal brings a familiar, yet fine-tuned touch, lodging echoes of that vastness in every image. Jamaal produces timeless visuals and agencies across the conduits of creative genres, exploring the roots of the emotions at the core of us all.

Awarded Best of Zola
I initially had first hand experience with Jamaal's work while being in a good friend's wedding last year. A this wedding Jamaal was great. He paid attention to detail, was prompt and on time, didn't need to be told to capture certain moments, etc. When it came time for my big day, I knew I had the perfect person in mind. My wife and I decided to go the conservative route and have a small wedding w/ reception dinner at a restaurant. However, based on our wedding photo sneak peaks that Jamaal provided after; you would think it was a bigger wedding that what it actually was! Which is exactly what we wanted. He captured every moment perfect. My wife and I are happy to have worked with J. and hope to use him in the future for whatever occasion we have coming up next! Thank you again J!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were extremely lucky to find this company and forever grateful to them. They made me feel amazing and our pictures and video were just incredible. I am a perfectionist and sometimes a bit much but they were so patient and kind. They were in constant communication with me and even let me know what to expect the day of. I received proofs fairly quickly (but can't remember how long though) and literally had 100s of pictures. I honestly had no cares at all. If you need a wedding photographer/videographer this is the company to choose. I have been to many weddings where the photographers forget about taking pictures with the guests and just focus on the wedding party. Blissfullstills made sure I got pictures with EVERYONE which meant the world to me. Oh and they had a drone that captured so many moments that would have been missed otherwise!! A++ Blissfullstills Vincent and I love you and thank you!!

Beach Nights - Live Band & DJ Combo

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $8,500
  • Serves Arverne, NY

You’ve seen wedding bands before. But you’ve never seen one like us. Our wedding nights are, in a word, unforgettable. We specialize in epic dance hits, teary-eyed singalongs, and everything in between. Book us for your event and you'll get our award-winning Boston Wedding Band & DJ combo, PLUS our professional sound and stage lighting system at one simple rate, with absolutely NO overtime charges. We travel all over New England and beyond, so when you’re ready for our industry-leading talent and a game-changing event package all at one affordable wedding band price, we’re ready to celebrate with you.

We are still on a high from the most fun night of our lives all thanks to BeachNights band, Chris and DJ Connor!!! If you want to have music at your wedding that everyone will be talking about for years to come, book BeachNights for your reception and the DJ combo for your other music needs (ceremony, cocktail hour, afterparty). Booking BeachNights for all our music needs was the best decision we made for our wedding day. BeachNights far exceeded our expectations. Chris is so professional, organized, and easy to work with. They have so much experience in all types of venues; you will be glad you have a band who knows exactly what they need to do to put on a seamless performance. They keep the music process worry-free so you can focus on other aspects of wedding planning. A piece of unsolicited advice if I may, book BeachNights for everything: ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, afterparty. It was so much easier being able to talk to ONE person and coordinate all music through ONE group rather than having 4 music vendors involved in the planning process. They take time to learn about you as a couple, your music wants and needs, likes and dislikes so that every single song is exactly what you want and how you pictured your music on your wedding day. THANK YOU Chris and team for making our wedding dreams come true!

Hi! My name is Nick. I fell in love with photography as a child through my love for music; I was obsessed with album covers and photos that would draw my eye and immediately tell me a story. I have a passion for art and my way of expressing it has always been through music and photography. I love hanging out with my friends and being social. Going out to dinner, having drinks, and spending time with my family are a few of my favorite things.

We never even looked for another photographer when planning our wedding. We new from the start that we would use Nick Finochio Photography. We had seen his work for many years prior to our wedding and we were in awe at his attention to detail and overall style of photography. When it came time for our wedding, Nick delivered beyond our expectations. His calm manner was exactly what we needed on our big day and he made us and our bridal party feel so at ease in front of the camera. Nick realizes the style you are going for with your wedding theme and personalities and turns that into a story with his photos. We HIGHLY recommend Nick for your wedding day and promise that you will be blown away by his work.

Hello! My name is Christine and I love weddings. I have been photographing weddings since 2005 and the more I do it, the more I love it. I also love chocolate, binge-worthy television and Betty White so much, I named my dog after her.

Dear Prospective Couples, In the summer of 2017, I had the opportunity to hire Christine Merson for my wedding. Besides the decision to marry my husband, she was the best decision of the day. If you have the opportunity to hire this talented professional I would recommend it. You will not be disappointed. Christine planned out the timeline for the entire event with me a week before the big day. Christine is a wonderful listener and was able to provide insightful suggestions to make sure the day was a stress-free as possible. Because of her years of experience, her advice really changed the course of the event in positive ways. Moments before the outdoor ceremony, the skies opened up and there was a downpour. The venue switched the ceremony to inside. Christine and her second photographer adapted to the situation as if that was the way the ceremony was originally planned. My dad was recovering from major surgery the day of the wedding. My father-in-law and godmother were also recovering from medical issues. Four days before the wedding, my husband came down with a nasty virus. Christine and her employee were able to capture everyone with a smile and with their best foot forward. Christine captured so many special and intimate moments of my wedding day without being intrusive. I will cherish each documented memory for years to come. If you choose to work with Christine, I am sure you will feel the same way. Best wishes!

The Barnstorm is an NYC-based party rock wedding band, best known for their electric and engaging dance party receptions. It's been said they're "not a real wedding band," but rather "an incredibly fun and engaging band that just happens to absolutely rock weddings!" Whether it's today's hits, top 40, hip hop, classic rock, Motown, and all things in between, The Barnstorm can do it all - putting their own spin on everything they do.

Awarded Best of Zola
The Barnstorm isn't a "wedding" band. They're a band. A really great band. And that makes them the best wedding band, in our opinion. We went to one of their live shows before booking them to play at our wedding and we knew immediately they were perfect. The band is 7 guys who you would want to be friends with -- which makes them blend in seamlessly at a wedding. Their range of songs is awesome. Everyone raved about their playlist, including a few of our guests who are huge music snobs. They also did an awesome job of getting everyone involved. People were dancing, singing along, even getting a second or two on the mic. It was like having a private live show at our wedding, which we loved and all of our guests loved. The vibe is much better than other wedding bands we've seen. On top of that they were incredibly easy to work with and accommodating. Brooks never made us feel bad for requesting songs, no matter how random, and they learned anything we asked them to that they had the right instruments for. Overall it was an awesome experience and we could not possibly recommend them enough. If every wedding we go to in the future has Barnstorm as the band, we'll be thrilled.

Anastasiya was absolutely PHENOMENAL! She did such a beautiful job with our florals. We gave her a few inspirational features and it came out better than expected! She took our romantic Burgundy and gold vision and brought it to life. I even had a requirement that she use carnations (as an homage to my mother in law's wedding bouquet), and calla lillies (as an homage to my mother's wedding bouquet), and she did this seamlessly, even though carnations aren't the typical wedding flower. I am so appreciative of We Make Fun Florals, and I still (3 weeks later) have my bouquet in water on my dining room table!

Thank you for taking an interest in my work and considering me to be your Wedding Photographer! I'm technically based in Brooklyn, NY but have the unique situation of growing up in Maine. I then spent a decade in New Orleans where I first began my photography journey and moved up to NYC to further pursue it.

Traveling is one of my other great passions, along with music, so it's a perfect fit.

A simple search on the wedding app led us to Karl, so we started with some engagement photos. He immediately won us over with his vibe, skill and ability to make awkward photoshoots (for me) relaxing and fun! Fast forward to our wedding, Karl continued to impress. I sent him a few inspo photos focusing on editorial-style shots and boy did he deliver! He was excellent at directing poses (BIG plus) as well as capturing those precious candids. He even flexed some drone footage and went above and beyond with a surprise reel! In addition, it's important to remember that you spend most of your wedding day with your photographer, so make sure you like them! Karl was a calm, welcoming energy all day, we even shared some laughs and inside jokes. He truly became a friend to us and our wedding party! We are so happy with our photos and this hire, we would highly recommend Karl to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

First off- if you are thinking of hiring a wedding planner in general but are not sure- just do it. It is the best money we spent of our entire wedding budget. But if you are going to hire a planner, specifically hire Eleve Events. Our experience with this company was incredible. From our first meeting to the wedding day Kristen and her team kept us organized and on track but more importantly let the process feel fun! I have heard from many couples that the time in their relationship in which they fought the most was wedding planning- it was NOT that experience for us. We got to feel in love and relaxed being engaged and she took care of all of the logistics. She gauged right away how involved we wanted to be in the planning process and let us continue our busy lives without stressing about the wedding planning. The day of the wedding Kristen's team anticipated needs I never would have even considered, she was literally prepared for every scenario that popped up and made the whole day run on time and smoothly.

Dear StyleNique, We cannot thank you enough for the beautiful decorations on our customary marriage ceremony this past weekend! We knew we wanted our traditional ceremony to be full of beautiful shades of neutral colors and seeing this come through in our decorations was incredible. It was everything we dreamed it would be and more. You truly understood what we wanted and created our dream traditional event and it was absolutely stunning and we so appreciate all the hard work and attention to detail you put into that beautiful structure. Not only did the decorations wow us, they wowed our guests too! We received so many compliments about how beautiful and well put together the decorations were. We can't thank you enough for our beautiful decorations and wish you all the best in the future! With thanks, Rachael and Kwadwo.

Chaz Cruz was the ideal wedding photographer for our special day. Communication with Chaz leading up to the wedding was prompt, organized, and highly professional. On the wedding day itself, Chaz guided us every step of the way, providing helpful direction while putting us completely at ease in front of the camera. The quality of Chaz's work is simply exceptional - he truly captured all of our best moments with skill and artistry. We knew from the first time we saw Chaz's portfolio that we wanted him to photograph our wedding. His amazing talent was evident, and we could not be happier that we chose Chaz to document the most important day of our lives. His beautiful photos will allow us to cherish our memories for years to come. We cannot recommend Chaz highly enough for any couple looking for a talented, dedicated, and personable wedding photographer.

Carolina Wahnish Rivera Photography

  • Serves Arverne, NY

When I was a little girl, my favorite part about making the trip to Argentina to visit my grandparents, was rummaging through their old boxes of prints on a rainy day and just imagining life through those photos. I think that's what started my passion for photography. Knowing that a photo can have such an impact on a child, someone who hasn't even met you yet, makes taking them all the more meaningful. I am passionate about making meaningful images for others because I know how important those photos will be in the future.

Carolina is incredibly talented. She captures the genuine moments, feelings and stories from the day, while she creates art at the same time. Very few photographers do both, and she is able to blend the documentary with the artistic in such a unique and cool way. She also captures photos that feel like there’s some added magic or fantasy. The thoughtfulness and creativity she brings to her work results in really remarkable photography. I studied photography for years and love collecting photo books and traveling to see photography exhibits at museums. I’m very nerdy for this stuff. Honestly, Carolina’s work is easily as good as the greats, and I’d happily spend hours going through galleries of her pictures. It is so cool to have photos like that of our wedding day and our family, that capture our real candid moments and the magic at the same time. Beyond that, Carolina was wonderful to work with and was incredibly understanding and thoughtful in how she interacted with us. I so recommend working with her, whether you want a photographer to capture a major event in your life or some of the beauty and magic in your everyday moments.

Words can’t express how much we loved working with Ana & Jimmy and the entire Amp DJ Band Hybrid. My husband really wanted a band while I really wanted a DJ, Amp DJ band was the perfect mix. We found Ana & Jimmy immediately and were able to schedule a meeting with them the next day. We knew right away that they were right for us. They were extremely attentive and outgoing from the start. They answered all out of questions and addressed concerns we had. We booked them immediately because we didn’t want to miss out on the opportunity to work with them. We met with them several times through our 6 month planning process. They responded immediately to any questions that popped up along the way and even allowed us to make a last minute change the night before. They well exceeded our musical playlist, taking the songs we requested and tailoring the rest of the music to fit the vibe. There was a perfect mix of live songs and an awesome dj set. The amount of compliments my husband & I received about the band far exceeded anything we expected. All of our guests LOVED them (of course as did we). So many people reached out that night or the next day to say how impressed they were with Ana, Jimmy & the whole band. We also had an acoustic guitar player at our cocktail hour which was amazing. If you’re debating getting a band for your wedding because your heart is set on a DJ, seriously look no further than Amp DJ Band hybrid. You will not be disappointed. I want to have another event just to work with them again!

We had the absolute best experience working with Florescent and Sam for our wedding! I truly cannot say enough great things about them! I came to Sam with the idea of doing a colorful meadow for our altar but the issue was that the inspo pictures I had for this were from a VERY pricy Lake Como wedding. But Sam came to the rescue and figured out a way to make my floral dreams come true on my much more limited budget! She worked hard to come up with ways that the flowers could be repurposed and used in different ways throughout the venue following our ceremony. She took all of my notes about the colors of flowers I was interested in and completely exceeded my expectations without much more direction from me! She came up with the most beautiful combinations of flowers in the arrangements and bouquets she created and totally blew us all away! When I first walked into our wedding venue I was completely amazed by what Sam and her team did and how their amazing work transformed the space and brought my dreams to life. I cannot thank Sam and her team at Florescent enough and I also cannot recommend them more highly! Thank you, thank you, thank you Sam and Florescent!!!

Abby Lauren Makeup and Hair

  • Beauty professional
  • Serves Arverne, NY

With a passion for providing high-quality services and an obsession with Makeup since the age of 3, I’ve been involved in the beauty industry since 2007. My mission is to offer my brides everything they need to look and feel their best.

Wow, if I could have invited Abby & Bailey to actually ATTEND my wedding - I would have because that's how much I loved working with them and having them be a part of my wedding day! From the very first call (9 months before my wedding), Abby was beyond incredible. She immediately made me feel like I could rely on her and I trusted that she would make sure my wedding look was everything I wanted it to be. In the 9 months leading up to the wedding, she answered every single one of my questions within hours of me sending an email. The day of was perfect - Abby and Bailey executed my vision beyond my wildest dreams! They were excellent with my mom, MIL, SIL, and cousins and did a great job keeping us on schedule. Not only are they extremely talented, but they are also FUN and personable! When looking for "the one" for hair and make-up for your wedding it's, of course, important that they are skilled, but to me, it was equally important that they fit the vibe on my wedding day since they are with you all day. Abby excelled in all those areas! Book her ASAP :-)
