Awarded Best of Zola
Spencer is such an amazing DJ! I have only positive things to say about him. He is calm, organized, structured, kind, and professional. He is able to read the room and adjust accordingly. There were no awkward lulls at our wedding thanks to him. He kept a great flow to both our ceremony and reception. I have never seen so many people dance at a wedding! My friends aren't dancers, so the fact that he got all of them out there was amazing! We gave him a list of songs we liked, and he was able to choose great songs from there. He also kept the dance floor fun and upbeat. He was the most organized person at the wedding. He did the microphones and speakers for our friends who played the violin for the ceremony and the person ordaining. He also did the lighting (which was magical). I cannot even say in words what a great experience we had. All of our guests told us later that he was amazing too!

Found Floral 

5.0

Berkeley, CA
  • Florist
  • Starts at $15,000

My name is Judy Leung (she/her) and Found Floral is based in San Francisco Bay area & beyond. Found floral is rooted in intentional and modern approach to floral and event design. With a focus on creating a flowerful experience that celebrates the culture and stories that are uniquely yours.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Judy at Found Floral was one of the best decisions my husband and I made during our wedding planning process! I knew I wanted florals that were textured and unique and not too cookie-cutter or traditional, so this was my top criteria when searching for a florist. Judy was able to masterfully bring the vintage backyard dinner party feel to our wedding which had 260 guests and still make our wedding feel unique (each table had different tropical and rarely seen flowers). Over 20 of our guests have mentioned to me since how much they loved the florals at our wedding since then - so many people have complimented our florals and shared that they are their favorite florals they've ever seen at a wedding and are still thinking about them today (some guests even have group texts focused specifically on our wedding florals)! The other big thing Judy did for us was the florals for the mandap (arch) for the ceremony - it was so spectacular and such an incredible focal point! It was raining for our entire ceremony so we were grateful to have a pop of color against the grey backdrop. The Found Floral team also used such unique flowers for the arch and laid them out in a way that was the perfect balance of textured but also refined (without being stiff or overly formal). My favorite part of working with Judy was that she took the time to understand my vision but then was able to operate and make decisions independently to bring that vision to life. There are 10000 things to do during wedding planning and it was such a relief to know we were in good hands with Judy and not having to make tiny decisions like picking out individual flowers or greenery or designing much of anything. I would work with Judy again in a heartbeat - she has such a chic unique style and is warm and makes her clients feel so comfortable at every stage of the process. Found Floral truly is the best florist in the Bay Area!!

Hi, I'm Tyler a professional photographer based in the SF Bay Area. I've been shooting portraits since 2009, when I visited Tibet with my dad on my middle school graduation trip. Ever since then, I've loved taking photos of people. Over the years I've developed my own style of photography to convey the feeling of the moment into my photos. My goal is to always create images that will stand the test of time.

Awarded Best of Zola
Tyler was truly a gift to have as part of our wedding. He very carefully, and effectively, cultivated perfect settings for photographs that didn’t feel cheesy. He really understood the importance of angles and worked hard to find each of our best. Really, so so many of his photographs ended up breathtaking. If I were to do it all over again, I would have Tyler by my side to document my momentous day!

Hi, I'm Carrie the lady behind the lens of CMG Imagery. I'm a photographer with twelve years wedding experience and a focus on natural light and storytelling. In my work, I am inspired to capture love and connection in a timeless and authentic way that will be cherished for years to come. I love creating images with movement that capture the heart and soul, the candid moments, the playfulness and personality. So get ready to adventure and let's tell your story!

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Carrie as our wedding photographer, and also have done an engagement photo session with her. We're both somewhat camera shy, and didn't know quite what to expect with a photo session, but we had a wonderful time with Carrie and enjoyed the whole experience immensely. She has been fast to respond and stay in touch, and we just got our engagement photos today. Among the comments we've already received are "wow, those are the most beautiful engagement photos I've ever seen!" What initially attracted us to Carrie was the excitement and enthusiasm she had from when we first met, and she's maintained that same attitude through every interaction we've had with her. We enjoyed working with Carrie for both our engagement session at a regional park as well as our wedding photos at an old church and rose garden. She took indoor and outdoor pictures well, and captured fun moments and interesting angles that highlighted the locations we chose well.

Bluma: The Artful Botanic 

5.0

Berkeley, CA
  • Florist
  • Starts at $1,200

I started Bluma: The Artful Botanic in the summer of 2013. I was doing flowers for several friends’ weddings when I decided to take the plunge and open a small business. Bluma is a delight and an incredible learning experience. I love it most because it combines two of my passions, flowers and art. Bluma: The Artful Botanic is based in Berkeley, CA. I design for weddings, anniversaries, memorials, b’nai mitzvot, birthday parties, fundraisers, and other special events. I am open to inquiries of all kinds.

Bluma: The Artful Botanic was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding flowers. From the moment we connected, the team was incredibly helpful, kind, and bubbly in their communication style. They took the time to understand our vision and provided thoughtful suggestions that resulted in truly fresh, inspiring, and beautiful floral arrangements. I was living in NJ during the time of wedding planning, and they even texted me about what flowers were in season and were transparent with the pricing. Bluma's attention to detail and passion for their craft shone through in every aspect of their work, and they helped make our special day even more beautiful. I would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a top-notch wedding florist.

Nora Spanish Cuisine 

2.5

Berkeley, CA
  • Caterer
  • Starts at $3,000

Ñora Cocina Española is a full service catering company, serving the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond. We strive to bring you the essence of the Spanish dining experience, taking care of the details to ensure the event is as seamless and stress-free as possible. Ñora can handle everything from menu planning (including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options), event coordination, rentals, decorations, staffing and more! Our team of experts can help make any vision into a reality. Whether it’s a spectacular wedding of 200 guests or an intimate gathering for 20, no event is too large or small.

My husband and I are from different cultures. We have relatives who think paprika is spicy and friends who love more flavor. We wanted food that would be a crowd-pleaser for all our guests. We were also on a strict budget. Every other caterer wanted to charge way more for food that didn't sound all that exciting. I was so happy when I found Nora. We went with three paellas, tapas, and a grazing board. The paellas were a big hit, and everyone got to have a delicious meal. It was also a cool experience for our guests to see the paellas being cooked. Alexa, Emily, and the staff were great, but they are quite busy, so communication can be slow. Overall, it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend Nora for your event. I knocked down a star because their communication skills aren't the best, but they were flexible on all our menu requests and were very accommodating to our last-minute timeline.

We had the absolute best experience hosting our wedding here. Natasha Norman was incredible to work with through the entire planning process. She was clear on pricing, set our expectations well, was incredibly responsive, and helped coordinate the event on the day of the wedding. We asked for some extra time to set up the room and, since the room hadn't been booked the day before the event, she let us come in the day prior to get everything in order. Natasha spoke with our DJ and coordinated for his set-up, which was very helpful. The team setting up the event also did the perfect job of setting up the tables and outdoor chairs exactly as we'd asked. I changed my mind on the arch at the last minute, and they had no problem making the change. The wedding was incredible, our guests felt comfortable in their rooms and were pleased they could bring their dogs so they didn't have to hire a dog-sitter. Everyone was impressed by the view and by the fact that the sun was setting behind the sweetheart table in the Bayview Ballroom. I also want to give a shoutout to the banquet manager who made us feel at home, kindly brought us beverages as we were setting up, and took care of us throughout the stay. I’ve received at least half a dozen compliments on the qualify of the food served, and I felt the pricing was very reasonable – especially when compared to other hotels on the water nearby. I also loved that the hotel provided us a contingency plan if we needed to move our outdoor wedding to the indoors because of rain or anything else. We truly felt special and valued and would use this venue again in a heartbeat.

Ivan Duran Photography 
Berkeley, CA
  • Photographer

I am an award-winning photographer based in San Francisco and the Bay Area. I was born and raised in Guadalajara, Mexico. As a kid, I loved painting & drawing just as much as I loved taking apart wrist watches and fixing car radios. It wasn't until I picked up a camera as a teenager that I found an activity that combined my artistic sensibilities with my love of technical challenges. Photography has been my passion ever since. I bring a happy, relaxed energy to every job I shoot. In general, I'm more of a listener than a talker. When I'm not taking pictures, you'll find me salsa dancing, or playing ukulele very badly, though joyfully!

One of our best wedding planning decisions was hiring Naian Photography for our photos! We worked with the fabulously talented Natalie (noting that Naian Photography is a duo of Natalie and her husband Pedro). From day 1, Natalie was warm, professional, and knowledgeable. Knowing that Natalie would be with us a lot on our big day, we knew we wanted someone who felt like a friend. Natalie absolutely went above and beyond to get to know us, help us craft our photography timeline, and perfect all the details. She was readily available for questions and came to our wedding prepared to capture everything and everyone!
