"WOW!!! If referrals are what you want, you can count on us for that!!! Where do I begin? 1. The service? EXCELLENT, OUTSTANDING, TOP RATE 2. The food? INCREDIBLE, 5 STAR, SCRUMPTIOUS, OUT OF THIS WORLD 3. Professional? YOU ARE A PERFECTIONIST, YOUR TEAM IS AMAZING, SPECTACULAR Each of our guests have commented on how wonderful our reception was. They all went on and on about how great the food was, Your dedication to making each event you cater absolutely perfect was obvious from the first day we met, but when I learned that it was your daughter's birthday the same day as our reception, you blew me away! I know you were throwing her a big party on Sunday, but you were with us instead of sending someone in your place. You are a consummate professional. Again, from the bottom of my heart, we THANK YOU, we appreciate the incredible job your team did and we will always use you and refer to anyone in need of a caterer.

Tiffany specializes in creating the exceptional luxury of an alluring yet cultivated experience while capturing connection and beauty. She draws from over ten years in the wedding photography industry to capture authentic luminous love stories that reflect not only the beauty in a moment but the feeling.

Tiffany and her team were AMAZING! From the moment we contacted her, Tiffany was professional, helpful and easy to talk to. Figuring everything out for my wedding was all a learning experience and she helped me out so much during the process. During our engagement session, we got to know Tiffany better and once we saw the photos she took, we knew we had made the right choice. We refined the timeline (a lot) and she was available for questions or concerns when I had them. We had the most amazing wedding day, thanks to Tiffany, Alyssa and Brittany. They helped us figure out the best places, and how, to pose and made my husband and I feel super comfortable the whole time. Tiffany captured shots in a way that takes me right back to that moment and I'll cherish them forever. All the photos we got back were fantastic, and I would recommend Tiffany to anybody who needs photos of anything!

I had the pleasure of working at Rancho Victoria Weddings last year, and I was blown away. The surrounding landscape is beautiful, the farmhouse is nice and cozy, the grounds are wonderful, and the staff was friendly and professional. I love how the ceremony and reception sites are separated but not too far away. The bar area is unique, and the vineyards are close by. If you want a country farm house/vineyard vibe for your wedding, definitely swing by Rancho Victoria Weddings.

Hello! my name is Maya and I have been a makeup artist since 2014. It has always been one of my passions and I love being able to work with brides one on one to bring their vision for their big day to life.

Maya will be the greatest choice you make on your wedding day. She is only person I trust to do my hair and makeup. She flew across the country for my wedding and I wouldn’t have chose anyone else for my hair and makeup. She was my non-negotiable from the start. For the past 8 years I have trusted her to do whatever she thought looked best and it always turns out better than I could have imagined. Maya is the sweetest and takes the time to make sure you feel beautiful and love your hair and makeup. All of the girls pictured below, Maya colors and cuts their hair. She’s the full package for whatever you need. I could not recommend Maya enough for your wedding.

Enthusiastic, creative, and detail-oriented, the specialist team delights in bringing couples' dreams to life. They tailor their services to align with each to-be-weds wishes and requests and endeavor to curate unique occasions for their cherished clients.

Jenell was so responsive and offered to keep in touch very frequently leading up to the wedding. She took on familiarizing herself with a venue she had not been to or coordinated before our big day. Our venue was unique in that we had to ride the tram at Paisades Tahoe to access the reception Terrace Room. This meant all of our decor, Flower Moxie florals, vendors, and guests had to get up the mountain at particular times. She managed it all fabulously. We can’t say enough great things about Jenell’s work and how she helped us pull off a lot of the DIY final touches. Our Tahoe wedding weekend was perfect.

Love Wildly

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Bear Valley, CA

Photographing elopements happened by chance for me, but once I did my first one, I realized what an amazing experience it was for my couples. Having played a role on so many big wedding days, I realized there was so much my couples were missing out on. The stand out was the pace of the day and time spent with each other! I learned elopements moved at a much slower pace and that those couples had so much more time with each other. They are free to mark the date at a location that really speaks to them, and without a guest list (or a small one) they were so much more free to celebrate the way that left them feeling the most content.

Joleen is one of my favorite photographers in my area. Every wedding and shoot I have worked with her has been a great experience. She provides a high level of professionalism to her brides and is sensitive to every clients needs on the day. Joleen knows exactly how to make her clients feel at ease and relaxed in front of the camera while capturing the most important moments.

Joleen Willis Photography

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style

  • Serves Bear Valley, CA

It is so important to me that your wedding photography is authentic to you as a couple. I want you to have the space to be yourselves, and the time to savor each part of the day. While I do enjoy directing my couples to some extent, I want to be involved as little or as much as you'd have me. I want to work with you closely months before the day to make a timeline that fits your personality and also gives you confidence in the photos you'll receive once the day is over. I want to make sure that we don't rush to the next part of the day without really enjoying the part that comes before it.

Hiring Joleen to photograph our 10-person wedding was the best decision we could've made. We were afraid it might be uncomfortable with such a small group, but Joleen fit right in to help direct everyone on the day's activities without interfering in the private nature of our gathering. The pictures came out beautiful! The quality of her work and her knowledge of lighting definitely showed throughout the day and in the final product. Besides all that, she's just a sweetheart and a pleasure to be around! Definitely recommend!

Come check us out!

Our wedding experience was nothing short of magical, and it's all thanks to the incredible efforts of Jessica, our outstanding wedding coordinator at this enchanting venue. From the moment we engaged her services, we found ourselves effortlessly gliding through the entire process without a single moment of stress. Jessica's expertise and meticulous attention to detail were evident in every aspect of our special day. So much so, that I wholeheartedly entrusted her with the arrangement of the florals, not laying eyes on them until the wedding day itself. To say she exceeded our expectations would be an understatement – every detail was flawlessly executed. The venue itself is an absolute gem, radiating an undeniable charm that contributed to the overall magic of the occasion. The accompanying homes provided for our use were not only incredibly cute but also showcased Jessica's unwavering commitment to perfection – no detail was left unattended. Reflecting on our wedding day, my spouse and I find ourselves repeatedly expressing the sentiment that, if given the chance, we would relive that extraordinary day over and over again. This venue, with Jessica at the helm, truly created an unforgettable experience, and we couldn't be more grateful for the seamless, beautiful celebration she orchestrated. Thank you Jessica!

After extensive searching, we stumbled upon this place via family friend recommendation. It was perfect! The owners responded quickly to any questions and concerns we had. Not only was the venue GORGEOUS, but we, as well as the wedding party, were able to rent the venue the night before and the night of the wedding. It saved us a lot of stress because our wedding party was all in one place! This also allowed our vendors to set up earlier in the day. We love Red Tail Ranch and are planning on spending a weekend there in the near future!

The Avery Hotel, built in 1851, is situated on the majestic Ebbetts Pass Scenic Highway 4 east of the historic gold-rush town of Murphys. The hotel is perfect for group vacations and family gatherings. The Bear Valley Ski Resort is located just up the road. Calaveras Big Trees State Park is 15 minutes away. There are restaurants, shopping, and wine tasting nearby. The perfect holiday getaway.

From the historic charm to the large property, it was the perfect setting for our enchanted forest/fantasy world themed wedding! We had a small wedding weekend where we stayed at the Avery with 28 of our friends and family from Friday to Sunday. Terry, the manager, was extremely helpful answering any of my questions from when we toured and booked until even after the wedding. It was the perfect DIY wedding venue for us. They provided tables, chairs, tablecloths, choice of arbor, set up of their dance floor, tons of lighting all over the property, bar glasses, large kitchen for catering, and they also have tons of faux florals and decorations that we were allowed to use. If you don’t mind doing the DIY work, it is the most affordable (and beautiful in my opinion) venue in Calaveras county. I was so lucky to come across this gem, I had to share how much I loved it!

I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.

We had a really great experience with the Uncommon Weddings! I wasn't sure at first that I even wanted to hire a videographer, but after talking to family members, many of them expressed that they were either very glad they had hired a videographer, or regretted that they didn't! After that, we started our research. We didn't live in the same area where our wedding was being held, so we were relying mostly on reviews to pick our vendors. We loved the reviews we read for the Uncommon Wedding and we watched clips of their videos before reaching out. The team is very helpful and we felt immediately comfortable with choosing them. We never met them (except by phone) until the day of the wedding! We opted for a simple package with our ceremony video and reception highlights and they did a really good job! We watched it the same day they sent it to us and we were surprised by how many little things we had already forgotten about in just a couple of months! We had a great experience and hope everyone getting married will consider this team for their own special day!

Ceremony DJs

  • DJ

  • Serves Bear Valley, CA

Full custom theme weddings from San Francisco's leading indie DJs. Share your love of music with family and friends. We're here to help you make your wedding sound like the mixtape you exchanged when you first met.

Our experience working with Jamie and Ceremony DJs can be best summed up by the fact that multiple people told us after the ceremony they wanted to book him for their wedding and at least one got his business card! I can't imagine a better DJ, truly. When we first met with Jamie, he said he could make people dance to anything and would keep people on the dance floor all night, and he WAS NOT LYING. The whole night, the dance floor was PACKED even though it was rainy/muddy/cold/wet. Jamie took us on a journey that covered all of the bases of the music we love to hear and dance to, seamlessly and magically (?) integrating genres with the best mixes, it was pure wizardry and really captured who we were. We as a couple care a lot about music and wanted music that represented who we were and what we like to listen to, and he did not disappoint! So much prep work went into this, he took patience and time to try to understand our tastes and vibe, and it was so cool to have the wedding played on vinyl- basically, Jamie just "got it" from start to finish and we had the best time! Our wedding also got delayed due to rain and a road closure and he was such a good sport, staying late to keep us all dancing for a whole other hour- so fun! Also, when our ceremony musician was stuck in traffic due to the storm, he was so prepared and had our prelude/processional music downloaded so we could still walk down the aisle to the songs we'd chosen. Overall, such a cool, kind, funny guy who was professional and prepared in every way and honest just takes time to meet and know his clients, and clearly just loves to share his love of music. I would book him for everything if I could. BOOK THIS DJ. You will NOT regret it!

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.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

If I could give Grace and her assistant 10 stars I would! Our wedding was very low key with no day of coordinator, etc. Grace and her assistant helped my husband and I navigate the day. We were also very nervous about having photos taken and she did a wonderful job at putting us at ease and helping us with poses. Our wedding photos turned out amazing and we get so many compliments on them! I highly recommend Grace for your wedding!

Jen is incredible and worth every penny! My husband and I weren't very sure about how we wanted our wedding florals to look. We also didn't want to spend thousands of dollars on flowers that would only last a day. We stumbled upon wood flowers and discovered Wood and Word Blooms! Working with Jen was wonderful and seamless. She helps you every step of the way to figure out what you would like. The DIY class was so much fun, and we were able to build all of our centerpieces, boutonnières, and bouquets. Jen also built my cascade bouquet and beautiful garland for us! Everything came out so beautifully and was perfect for our day. Thank you Jen!

DJ Daniel did an excellent job for our wedding. From start to finish, he listened to what we wanted and worked with us throughout the ceremony, pause for Mariachi band, and then continuing with the reception. Great experience.
