  • Team of 1
  • Serves Bates City, MO

My name is Hope Rackley. I have been a stylist for eleven years. I graduated from Paul Mitchell The School in Springfield, Missouri. Hair and makeup have been my number one passion for most of my life. There is nothing better than helping someone else feel beautiful. I pride myself in making sure that every bride feels the absolute best about themselves on their special day. I specialize in blonding, as well as weddings and events.

We were so thrilled that we booked JoElla Beauty Collective for our wedding day. JoElla's communication throughout the planning process was amazing and detailed, which really put us at ease. On the big day, JoElla not only did a fabulous job with our hair and makeup - creating absolutely beautiful looks that made us feel like our best selves - she also graciously helped with little details beyond beauty that we didn't know how to handle ourselves. Her work was worth every penny and more. We couldn't have felt more confident and beautiful walking down the aisle, thanks to JoElla. She was professional and friendly, and a joy to work with. We'd recommend JoElla's services to any bride looking for flawless hair and makeup on her wedding day from someone who will take great care of you!

Hi, I’m Erin and I love telling stories. I'm Midwest based, Kansas City to be specific, but I'm a Michigan girl at heart and love to travel! My favorite way to share the world through my eyes is from behind a camera lens. Your story is beautiful, and worth sharing.

Erin was wonderful from the first chat we had with her. She made everything from our engagement session to check ins before the big day, to all aspects of wedding photography have such ease. We feel so fortunate to have found her, especially as a queer couple and the industry being filled with "bride and groom" talk, she didn't skip a beat at making us both feel special as the brides.

Whether playing classical pieces, or creative arrangements of more contemporary songs, there is a timeless quality to their music. Aside from the music itself, these women are kind, professional, and a delight to work with.

Howdy! I’m Aubriana, a photographer passionate about capturing life and love in their most genuine moments. My journey with photography began over a decade ago in high school and has since grown into a heartfelt career. Inspired by my time in Iowa and the beauty of Milkweed fields, my business name reflects my love for fleeting, magical moments—just like the Monarch butterflies that migrate each year. I believe every love story is unique and deserves to be documented with care, warmth, and authenticity. I’d be honored to capture yours!

Working with milkweed moments is a breeze! I was nervous because I have a 3 and 1 year old, and wasn’t sure how they would cooperate. Aubriana made everything go smoothly. She’s great with kids, great with directives on posing, and really made the day so fun! She got all the shots I dreamed of!”. Will be booking her again in the future!

We are passionate about photographing kind-hearted people who are unapologetically themselves, and creating a safe and beautiful space in the wedding world for LGBTQ+ folx. Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

Awarded Best of Zola
When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

I've been filming weddings for over 5 years now and to this day I love being behind the lens and getting creative with each unique wedding. Capturing lifelong memories, that you'd be able to playback with your family and friends for many more years to come!

When we thought about how we wanted to remember our wedding day, we wanted a mix of authentic yet cinematic, styled but personal, and ultimately a way to help us relive the happiest day of our lives. From the moment I found Anastasiya with Rose Gold Films, I was immediately impressed with her gallery of work, her prompt and professional responses and genuine excitement and enthusiasm for a day so far in the future. Her and her sister were incredible the day of and were so easy to work with. We immediately felt comfortable and trusted her artistic eye. We received a highlight reel maybe 2 days after our wedding, and she also sent us dozens of behind-the-scenes content and reels literally THE NEXT DAY. I can honestly say I watched that first Instagram reel probably 18 times in a row and look at those iPhone videos at least every other day still. The day after, you are still on such a wedding high and to have content literally sent to your phone/email 24 hours after is a feature that is 100% worth any upgrade price. And now I have all those sweet, candid moments forever. It's a new feature I didn't realize how much I would treasure. The full wedding film exceeded expectations and was a beautiful blend of family, friends and our closest loved ones. She also honored our wishes of keeping our vows just between us for the wedding film. If you've gotten this far and aren't convinced that Rose Gold Films is for you, I literally don't know what else to say. She's a 10/10 and I honestly wish we could get married again to relive every second of that day. Luckily, that's what her videos are for...

Hi there, I'm Emma, the owner and lead designer of Floriography. With over 8 years of experience in floral design and hundreds of weddings brought to fruition, you can entrust me with the design of one of your most special days. I take on a very limited amount of weddings each year to ensure each couple the dedication and attention their wedding deserves and it's my pleasure to assist in bringing their visions to life!

Booking Emma for our wedding florist was one of the best choices we made for our wedding day. We met with Emma for the first time over two years before our wedding day, and truly felt that we could immediately trust her to bring to life the dream we had. Florals were a very important part of our wedding design for me, and Emma truly knocked it out of the park. It was easy to tell that she had meticulously planned every detail and hand picked every single flower that went into our wedding day designs. Her work was so stunning, from the bouquets, to the smaller arrangements, to the massive hanging installation she designed and executed for our head table. The statement pieces were so beautiful have been talked about by our guests non stop since our wedding day. Emma was extremely easy to communicate with throughout the entire process, and we cannot recommend her enough!
