We cannot say enough good things about Erica and Erica Johanna Photography. Erica was fabulous to work with and through down to the last detail and informational form. One of my friends had actually had Erica photograph her wedding so I got to witness how she worked and how seamless she made the busy wedding day and knew we had to have her shoot our day! She is thoughtful, creative and works very efficiently. She is kind, respectful and friendly to all! Our parents could not say enough good things about her on the wedding day. We loved how our engagement photos turned out and how she made sure to incorporate the color details and colors into our portraits. We are anxiously awaiting our wedding day photos and know we are in the best of hands with Erica! We could not say enough good things about Erica and would recommend her to anyone! Erica does more than weddings, engagement photos, seniors and families.

Melinda Toth Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,800
  • Serves Banner Elk, NC for additional fees

Fueled by equal parts sweet tea and passion, I spend my days capturing the kinds of images that make you stop, smile and ask time to please slow down. Your story, your love, is beautiful and I can't wait to capture it in images you will treasure for years to come. I believe in real moments and heartfelt conversations on the front porch. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together.

Melinda is incredible! We were able to do an engagement session which allowed us to work together and get an idea of each other’s likes and preferences which made the wedding day flow so nicely. Our sneak peak photos from our wedding are INCREDIBLE! We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer.

I am a photographer and artist from the Pacific Northwest with Costa Rican and Scottish roots.

I have been fortunate to photograph 200+ weddings in my PNW home, to ruins in Scotland, cityscapes in Vietnam, to the beaches of Maui, and beyond! I live in Portland, Oregon with my partner, two dogs, and four cats | 🏳️‍🌈🦖⛰️✈️📸⚽🫶🏼🌈🌲🦕🏝 Fun Fact: I was born on Leap Year Day so I turn 9 this year 🥳!

I have used many photographers in the past but none came close to the level of expertise that Leah possesses. Over the years, I've done business headshots with her, family photos, and most recently my wedding. Since I have used Leah's services for other things before, I knew what to expect as far as photo-quality goes; the real testimonial comes from how she handled the wedding. Shooting a wedding in another country with a chaotic family is no easy task, even I wouldn't wish it upon myself, but Leah truly knocked it out of the park: she checked in before the event day to go over the schedule, showed up early, got all of the extra shots that I requested, directed people, and just really took charge of the experience. Having her as my wedding photographer was literally one of the only non-stressful decisions I made for that event lol. The photos turned out beautifully, I really can't imagine having anyone else capture one of the most important events of my life. I recommend her wholeheartedly!!

Hey there! Since you are trusting me to capture these special moments in your life, I figured you should probably know a bit about me, right? I am a Huntsville, Alabama native, but moved to Nashville after graduating from the University of Alabama in 2013. ROLL TIDE! Although I consider Nashville home, I am anything but a homebody. I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

I'm just here to say, if you're looking for an engagement photographer, wedding photographer, bridal shoot or any other of your photography needs, Diana knocks it out of the park every time. Feel awkward? Not sure how to stand or hand placements? Need your dress fluffed? Someone to help herd people out of your bridal suite? Someone who will be caring and take time to get to know you individually and as a couple? Diana is absolutely it! She quickly became a friend after hiking up in the dark with us to get a sunrise engagement shoot. She went above and beyond for us every step of our engagement and wedding. Her wonderful personality and infections smile will keep you feeling comfortable around her. I truly cannot recommend her enough!

So nice to meet you! My name is Carina, and I'm your new wedding planning bestie! I started Raleigh Weddings after self-planning my own wedding. As much as I loved the process, I was also up until 3 AM the night before my wedding finalizing designs on my decor and straightening our ceremony chairs. My wedding day ended up being AMAZING (on 4 hours of sleep, no less!), but if I had known then what I do now, I would have had a planner. That's why I got certified in wedding planning and started my business in 2022: I want to help you soak in the joyful parts this process while I take on the heavy stuff for you.

I can't recommend enough booking through Raleigh Weddings as your planner. Carina was an absolute angel through the wedding planning process and all of our wedding day needs! She listened to all of our wants and made the day everything I could ever ask for. I couldn't have done all the details and vendor coordinating without her there to help guide and arrange. Can't emphasize enough how all my stresses went away once she stepped in and solved any issues before we knew they were a thing. The day of went so smoothly because at every step Carina and her assistant we're there to tackle things while still having fun with us! She's the best planner and person I'm so glad I had her by my side for the biggest day of my life! Don't hesitate and book her ASAP!

Kristen Caputo Weddings & Events is a wedding planning service that curates elevated events for memories that will last a lifetime! We offer everything from full-service planning packages to wedding coordination packages.

I cannot recommend Kristen Caputo Weddings & Events highly enough! My husband and I had a beach wedding last month and I was trying to handle everything myself, until I realized just how overwhelmed I was. Kristen had great reviews and after reaching out, I thought she had very fair prices for her services. I hired her to be my coordinator and I’m SO thankful I did! After every planning call with her, I would feel like a weight was lifted. She always had such helpful input throughout our calls and there are SO many things I would have overlooked without her there to guide me. On the big day Kristen and her Assistant Megan were AMAZING! I really thought I was going to spend the day worrying about if things were being set up the way I wanted them. On the actual day I wasn’t worried at all, by that point I had so much confidence in Kristen I knew she’d make it happen! And she did! My wedding was set up exactly how I wanted it and everything flowed so nicely! Megan waited with my dad and I before walking down the aisle and she was a lifesaver! She held all my things and helped me stay calm! Our ceremony turned out beautifully. I couldn’t believe how pretty it looked when I got to the aisle! It was better than I had hoped for. For the reception Kristen and Megan directed all our guests while we took photos. Then they made sure we got food and drinks and some time to ourselves before the socializing. Our reception turned out to be so much fun and all of our friends and family LOVED Kristen and Megan! They got to know our guests and they just felt like family celebrating with us by the end of the night! To any brides reading this in need of a wedding coordinator/planner- do yourself a favor and contact Kristen right now! My wedding was a beautiful, fun, and unforgettable day and I owe that to all of Kristen and Megan’s hard work!!! I couldn’t have done it without them!

Alex is grounded, calm, and helped us stay focused on one another and our community.

Leading up to the wedding he was highly communicative (with both us and our planner) and took the time to get to know us. During the day, he played air traffic controller with our extended families without missing a beat. And he even shared a sneak peak of the previews by the next morning for us to celebrate before our honeymoon. We are so grateful that Alex was our photographer.

Weaver Wedding Films was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding videography. Rachel, the lead videographer, was friendly, open, and clear in all of her communication throughout the planning process, making sure she fully understood our vision. On the big day, Rachel and her team were practically invisible yet managed to beautifully capture all of the special moments and personal touches we hoped for. The final video truly blew us away with how wonderfully it encapsulated the love and magic of our wedding through creative shots and seamless editing. We couldn't be happier with the amazing, personal, and timeless record of our special day that Weaver Wedding Films created for us. They are phenomenal videographers and wonderful people that we would enthusiastically recommend to any couple looking to treasure their wedding memories.

  • Serves Banner Elk, NC for additional fees

My style is rooted in a editorial and documentary approach, allowing me to narrate your unique love story through timeless images that capture genuine emotions. I prioritize unscripted moments, such as the reaction of your spouse as you walk up the aisle, the inside joke that makes you break out in laughter or the tears as your loved ones share thoughtful memories during toasts. These intimate details hold immense significance to me. As your photographer, I bring a heartfelt and genuine perspective, ensuring that your wedding day is portrayed in a way that truly reflects you and preserves the memories you'll cherish forever.

We are so glad to have found Lucia and that we chose her as our photographer! She's Awesome, very personable, kind, patient, professional, and all around great to work with! She made our phtoshoot fun and took the pressure off, which for us is a big deal as being infront of the camera is not our thing. She helped us both feel very relaxed and comfortable as well as had tons of ideas and gave great direction. I couldn't recommend her enough!

Lindsay and Nathan are an incredible team. From booking them two years ago, doing our engagement session, and now having gotten sneak peaks back from our wedding that was just 2 days ago, I’m completely blown away by how incredible they have been! Lindsay is a complete pro. Group photos flew by because she was so great at directing and wrangling everyone. I had multiple people comment on how she was EVERYWHERE non-stop at our wedding, doing an amazing job the whole time! I just know she got every picture I wanted and more, and with how gorgeous our sneak peaks turned out I know I’ll absolutely love them! She and Nathan were so on top of everything, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Not only that, she truly went above and beyond helping to safety pin a rip in my dress. The day was a whirlwind but Lindsay and Nathan made it so easy! I would hire them a million times over!

My goal for your event is straightforward: to create a musical atmosphere your guests will enjoy, in a tasteful way to conserve your excellent reputation. I look to do this by curating my family-friendly music library with all genres, removing instances or entire songs with profanity, vulgar descriptions, and offensive lyrics. I want you and your guests to feel comfortable for the entirety of the event, starting with the mood music that represents your style, whether you've chosen every song or have a few key picks you want me to build a playlist around.

Planning an event can be so tiresome but when you hire the right vendors it’s a lot off your shoulders. DJ Kenny Fiesta deserves every star in the sky!

What if your photos actually looked and felt like you? Picture yourself 10 years from now on your wedding anniversary looking back at your wedding album with tears welling up in your eyes as you relive your day.

Danielle was professional, warm, and knowledgeable. She guided us through every step of our day and weathered through unexpected torrential downpours and hurricane winds all while keeping morale up for the whole wedding party!

Loved Danielle, Love love love our photos, couldn’t recommend her enough!

Ra was awesome, we booked him for my engagement photoshoot. We spoke in advance and went over ideas for the day and then he went to it. he arrived on time and snapped away. he got views that we didn't even think of. he made the shoot go that much smoother. he has a great personality and great sense of humor which is why I’m laughing in most of the pictures. he also gave us so many ideas and stuff to do to look more natural instead of just telling us what to do. he was doing the pose first with his assistant to show us how it’s done and the tips and tricks to make it look natural. We appreciated all the knowledge that Ra brought! We can't thank him enough. he highlighted my dress and how big it was in certain poses which made my dress look just awesome and stunning. everyone loved the pictures and I’m just in love with this shot especially. thanks Ra again, definitely recommended.

Katie was such an amazing person to work with from the very first phone call to our last email after my wedding!! I got engaged in February of 2023 and reached out to Katie the following month. My husband and I decided to elope but we still wanted to have a big celebration with all our favorite people. The idea of splitting up our wedding into two events made me very stressed and anxious. I wasn't positive on how we could even achieve this and if it was just a crazy idea. My first phone call with Katie I expressed my concern and she immediately reassured me that this idea was possible. After our first call ended I let out the biggest sigh of relief and told my husband that I was so thankful that I reached out to her!! Katie made me feel confident in what we wanted for our wedding and I am so thankful for that. We did what we wanted and not what other people thought we should've done because Katie encouraged and supported us from the very start!! Our wedding day was so special to us and I can not thank her enough for that! We worked with Katie on partial planning. I am so thankful to have her for the first two months of planning. She truly kept me on track and informed me the whole time, I never felt like I was forgetting something or taking too much on at once. When April of 2024 hit I had zero stress because I knew that I would have Katies help that whole month. She asked questions that I would never have thought of, helped me make final decisions and was a calming person to go to during my wedding month. Our elopement was beyond perfect and our reception space was STUNNING thanks to Katie! She even mailed our marriage license for us! Katie was very responsive and honest. When I sent her inspo she let me know what we could do to achieve my goal but in our budget. She is also super sweet and very cool! I wish I could throw more events just to have her help me again. Katie at Keystone Event Coordinating was the perfect wedding planner for us and I can not think of a better person to help plan your most special day with!! Email Katie now, I promise you will thank yourself later!!

Our mission is to turn your inspiration into a stress-free, seamless celebration, allowing you to fully enjoy the journey to your dream day!

We used Destiny and her team as our coordinator for our wedding in August and we are so glad we did!! I literally cannot say enough nice things about Destiny - she’s extremely organized, reliable, detail oriented, and always made us feel like everything was under control and we didn’t need to worry. She went above and beyond leading up to our day, always checking up on me and willing to help where she could. Her enthusiasm and positivity made the difficult times of wedding planning feel way less stressful. When we had difficulties with a vendor just days before the wedding, she totally put my mind at ease and told me she’d work everything out — and she did! On our wedding day she was equally reliable and amazing and the whole day went really smoothly and we got to enjoy it without worrying and everything looked beautiful. I literally can’t imagine what our wedding day would’ve been like without Destiny, and I completely recommend her to anyone who wants to hire a coordinator that they can trust to think of every detail and make everything happen just the way you’d want it!!
