Based in the heart of the Midwest, our event staffing company specializes in providing exceptional corporate event staff, event staffing, and convention staffing for sporting events, private functions, concerts, and more. Our mission is simple: to infuse every event with outstanding service and vibrant professionalism.

Setting up and planning everything with the person online was wondering and really gave me high hopes! Everything went super smoothly. They gave me a comprehensive shopping list and helped finesse all the recipes for our mocktail bar. Also checked in a few times prior to the wedding to make sure we were all on the same page. Now the bartender who came was a different story. She forget several of her tools needed including knives for all the garnishes. I had bought quite a bit of oranges, lemons, limes etc. She was also incredibly rude and several people remarked to me about that during the wedding day and after the wedding. She looked miserable and angry the whole time at the wedding. The only time I went to the bar, she wasn’t there and after about 10 minutes of waiting around, she came back and I asked to try all my mocktails and she gave me a judgy look and said that she was already made a drink for the bride earlier. I asked again and finally after my husband asked with me she made them but reluctantly. Mind you, this was a nonalcoholic bar. Overall liked Bucky’s, but the bartender was who worked with them was having an off day.

I am a destination wedding & elopement photographer + planner based in New Mexico. I am originally from the small college town of Lexington, Kentucky, but before long my family moved to Toronto, Canada. Fast forward a handful of years, we moved to Nashville where I finished up elementary school and attended high school. I graduated from UTK in the spring of May 2020 with a BS in marketing and a collateral in entrepreneurship. After graduation I moved down to Florida to be with my partner who is stationed in the area and this past year we got moved to NM! I am an avid traveler & learner!

Audrey is the best. She went above and beyond for my wedding which seemed so natural that she must do it for all. We had 3 phone calls since we lived far away. Ahead of the wedding she put together detailed timelines for myself and all those involved. We made edits together and we explored different package options. I had a large wedding where my Husband and I were getting ready at different locations, a Catholic Church Ceremony and a different location for reception. Audrey managed with ease. She has the calmest demeanor and the best art came from the day. I received “Sneak Peaks” of almost 80 photos within 2 days which was a shock to me. Upon opening them, the photographs were so beautiful we couldn’t even believe these were from our day. I HIGHLY recommend Audrey for your wedding. Big or Small, Formal or Informal. She is the girl. BTW her second shooter, Lauren quite literally saved our wedding ceremony when I forgot the rings. Lauren tracked down the limo driver and delivered the rings discreetly to the alter!

I’ve been a photographer for over 15 years. My journey started at Mississippi School of the Arts where I first saw the magic of a photo develop in a darkroom! I have a bachelor's degree in Photojournalism from Southern Miss and worked as a professional marketing photographer for 6 years before moving on full-time to wedding photography. That important step has proven fruitful as my passion for capturing real moments has been fulfilled by capturing the magic of loving couples. Now after 2 years of booking my calendar up and meeting with beautiful people from all over the southeast, I can reliably say my expertise is serving a higher purpose.

April was so easy to work with! My wife and I had a short engagement so we had to find vendors fast. April was super accommodating and able to work with us through all the steps of engagement and the wedding. She’s professional, timely, understanding, and incredibly friendly.

10/10 recommend Myers Media! Matt and Olivia were incredibly easy to work with, communication was very clear, and they were incredibly flexible with us having to reschedule our wedding due to COVID. Not to mention the video that they produced was absolutely INCREDIBLE. They exceeded my expectations by far! They could not have captured our love for one another any more beautifully. When I watch the video... which is about 5x per day, lol... i am still in awe every. single. time! I have received so many compliments from friends and family that it was the most beautiful wedding video that they have ever seen, and i have to agree!! If you haven't booked with them, do it now!!

Hey Friend! Photography is my absolute passion and it shines through my images!!! I live for the RAW moments... the true emotion of the day. Tears that fall during a first look, the last hug with your loved ones before you walk down the aisle, and the ear to ear smiles once you've said "I Do!" I blend candid and guided shots, giving you the freedom to move about the day to enjoy it, while never having the thought of “what should I be doing” running through your mind! You'll be able to look back on your wedding photos 40 years from now and FEEL the emotions you felt that day. That's my promise to you!

Lauren Ashlie Imagery provided amazing photography for our wedding day. Her communication was efficient, clear, and prompt throughout the entire process making it so easy to work with her. The quality of her work was incredible - the photos are so natural and detailed, capturing all the special moments beautifully. She also sent the sneak peak photos, along with the full portfolio, in a timely manner. Lauren was able to make me feel so relaxed and beautiful in front of the camera. I highly recommend Lauren Ashlie Imagery to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

The photographer was kind, communicative, creative and made it fun! Even though we spent extra time trying to find an open space and it was a bit cold, she made my family feel so comfortable. I loved the photos and can’t wait to book her again!
