They were incredible! I got an amazing deal for Black Friday (highly recommend if you can!) that came with two photographers and a videographer for 7 hours. They were really fun to work with, had creative vision on what our event was all about, and were professional. The consultation process was flexible and easy, they worked well with my day of coordinator and gave us the gift of images that will be with us forever. Thank you so much to the team at Sound Originals!

Ansar was the PERFECT dj for our wedding! He was professional, extremely flexible, accommodating to our (sometimes strange) requests, and was totally willing to improvise on the fly when we admittedly did not give him enough information about our venue. He kept the tunes popping late into the night, and the dance floor was never empty! (Outdoor wedding, late May, Asheville,NC )

Thousands of brides across the United States and Canada have trusted Something Borrowed Blooms to provide the perfect flowers for their wedding day. We offer brides the expensive peonies, delicate ranunculus, out-of-season anemones, and the ever-impossible-to-find-magnolia — all at a fraction of the cost.

Awarded Best of Zola
The process of using something borrowed blooms was so easy. I loved that the flowers could be reused and that I wasn't going to spend thousands of dollars on flowers that would just be thrown away! They included the return label in the box with the flowers they shipped out, which was great because we did not have a printer at our destination wedding. All of our flowers were fake because I was also worried about the heat wilting our flowers. I only rented bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages and a dog collar- but I wish I had rented my centerpieces as well! Amazing experience with SBB all around!

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers

  • Florist
  • Starts at $350

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Awarded Best of Zola
Flower Moxie was a great floral vendor. Their wide range of diy tutorials was very helpful, and our florist helped us form a vision for our wedding flowers. We were very happy with how our flowers turned out, and proud we could have a hand in diy-ing this aspect of our wedding.

Jen was AMAZING to work with! When it came to flowers for my wedding, I had NO IDEA what I wanted. She was very patient with me and helped talk me through my vision. She gave me flowers to pick from, talked about how big I wanted my bouquet and how much greenery I wanted, and then when I could find colors I liked in swatches, she color-matched the colors I wanted from an inspo pic I found online! She was very professional and patient with me, even when my plans changed or I needed to add to my order.  I am not the best at putting together a bouquet. I am also someone who likes control, especially when it came to planning my wedding. I was thankful that I was able to give Jen the reins, tell her what I wanted, and watch her make my dreams come true. When I first saw my flowers, I was speechless. She truly did make my floral dreams come true, and now I get to keep my bouquet for the rest of my life! A wooden flower bouquet from Jen is the way to go!

I love the storytelling aspect of photography. Photographs allow us to freeze a moment in time so that it can be remembered and relived years down the road. I started my journey in photography over 20 years ago and I'm lucky that I'm allowed to help so many couples tell and retell their wedding story. Weddings are full of small moments that deserve to be captured and remembered. From the early morning laughter as the bride fights with the champagne cork to make mimosas to the tears rolling down dad's face during the first dance... Those are the things that drive me to wedding photography... Real moments. Real emotions. Real stories to tell.

Hannah was an amazing photographer to work with from booking to bridal portraits to wedding day! She made us feel so comfortable and captured our vision perfectly. She went absolutely above and beyond with our gallery and delivered it to us SO quickly which was an added bonus! My husband and I are absolutely obsessed with our photos and couldn’t be happier.

Applehead Photography & Design

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,750
  • Serves Athens, GA

We are Applehead Photography and Design, and our combination of directing and documenting provides our clients with photos of raw emotions and interactions, and allows us to truly get to know each and every person we photograph. It's pretty awkward to have your photo taken by a couple of strangers, but our hope is that by the end of the day, you feel like you had your photos taken by a pair of old friends. To us, it's not just about the end product you receive – it's about the adventure and the memories we created in order to do so.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our wedding photos are STUNNING—seriously, they are incredible! Choosing Applehead Photography for our wedding was the best decision we made. Here’s why you should book them: 1. They work wonders for everyone—whether you love the camera or not. I’m not photogenic at all, but they made me look amazing! They guide you through each shot, helping you find your best poses, and they excel at both candid and posed photos. I usually have one smile that shows all my teeth and gums, but they helped me get the look we wanted. 2. You’ll feel like the most important person, as if you’re their only client. 3. They are genuinely kind and helpful people. Heather carried my wedding veil, made sure I had water, bustled my dress, and so much more. They’re just wonderful. 4. They are worth every penny. Every photo is expertly edited—lighting, brightening, even sculpting double chins—all included in the price. We didn’t realize how valuable this was until we spoke to other photographers who charged extra for these services or had limits on edited photos. 5. You get your photos back FAST and there are lots of them! The hardest part will be picking your favorites because they’re all so good. 6. They know how to photograph all skin tones. My husband and I are Black, and we wanted someone who could capture our skin tones beautifully. They nailed it! 7. They communicate well and ask all the right questions leading up to your big day. They are true professionals! Applehead Photography made a huge impression on us. We don’t usually write reviews, but we relied on them heavily while planning our wedding. We hope our experience helps you choose the best photographer for your big day!
