The Better Half Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Bourbon, IN

I have been doing wedding and portrait photography since 2015 and I love weddings! This past year my husband, Andrew, joined my team and has begun offering videography services for my couples. We will work closely together to ensure that every intimate detail is captured in a way that reflects your unique love story. With my passion for photography, attention to detail, and authentic editing style, you can trust that your love story is in good hands.

We were blessed to find Brittany and Andrew while searching for a photographer for our wedding and we could not be happier! Everything was just perfect, and every moment was captured just beautifully. Brittany’s creative eye to capture the perfect shot and to capture our personalities shows in our engagement and wedding photos and we are just in love with all of them. She even went above and helped my mom button my dress and then bustled up my dress when it was time for our reception. She honestly helped make the day less stressful with her cheerfulness and everything she did by keeping us on track for time and directing everyone for the family photos. We both loved working with them and highly recommend booking them!

The Music Place, Inc. 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,850
  • Serves Bourbon, IN

Imagine your perfect wedding day: smiling faces at every turn, the smell of fresh flowers, the wedding cake so glorious you can practically taste the buttercream, and your wedding VIPs rocking out on a packed dance floor that bursts with light and color all set to a soundtrack of your favorite songs. Most.Fun.Wedding.Ever. That’s kinda our specialty. Btw, we're REAL DJs, not some old guy sitting behind a computer screen; and creating energy and life-lasting memories for awesome people is our passion.

I do not have enough words to profess how incredible Blake was as our DJ. During the planning process he was extremely relatable, fun , and respectful of our wishes. He made great recommendations and eased any concerns we had about our big day. He also took the time to respond to us while he was on vacation and sent us an advanced shortened version of our first dance song so that we could practice our first dance. On the day of, Blake blew EVERYONE away. My husband was very concerned about the size of my dress while dancing so Blake ran us through the song early so we could practice before the reception began. His instincts as a DJ were SPOT-ON! Every song he played in the order he played them contributed to the absolute best party. Our tastes are a little all over the place (country, classic rock, oldies) and Blake was able to mix them all in and give us a night to truly remember. He was fantastic on the aux during introductions and kept our rowdy crowd going for hours and hours. What might've been most impressive is that he managed to get all 200 guests out of the ballroom in less than two minutes so that we could have our "last dance". We have received nothing but rave reviews from our guests and my husband and I still talk weeks later about how incredible Blake was. An amazing surprise is that he's very active on social media and took a ton of pictures and videos of the dance floor throughout the night that we'll now get to keep forever! Do not hesitate for a SECOND to hire Blake - it'll be one of the best choices you make for your wedding day. We truly could not have imagined the night without him!!!

Wes is the real deal, best of the best. I cannot recommend him enough and cannot thank him enough for the stress-free magic and FUN he brought to our day! Our guests were beyond impressed with his ability to be everywhere at once and were BLOWN AWAY by the same-day slideshow! (I mean, seriously, who can pull that off?!) We’re a year out from our wedding and still drooling over our pictures and receiving compliments from guests.

  • Classic style

Sarah Sage Photography is the premier wedding photography studio in South Bend, Indiana. We photograph elegant and modern weddings like the true love story that they are. These timeless stories are then remembered forever using only the highest quality wedding albums from Italy. Sarah Sage Photography celebrates all couples, no matter their location, religion, sexuality or ethnicity.

Awarded Best of Zola
Booking Sarah for our wedding was hands down the best decision we made. From our initial Zoom meeting, we knew it was going to be a great fit – she even added in cat toys in our welcome packet! My husband and I work crazy schedules and Sarah was so patient and willing to work with us and even make the trip down to Indianapolis for our engagement session. My husband was hesitant about the whole photo process, but he loved Sarah from our first meeting and she and Grace put us at ease and made the engagement session so fun! Sarah is definitely the person you want for your wedding. She knows the ins and outs of a Notre Dame wedding and was able to design the best timeline to fit in all of the pictures we knew we wanted for the day. More importantly, Sarah was a seamstress in another life and was able to sew me back into my dress and essentially sew a new bustle after an unfortunate football mishap. The only people you see more on your wedding day than your partner are your photographers, so this is one of the most important decisions you have to make. You will not regret hiring Sarah as your wedding photographer, she is that person you want by your side! We are lucky to come out of this with not only the most beautiful pictures, but beautiful friends as well. Our engagement and wedding photos captured our love story perfectly and we are so excited to have these to look at forever.

Anna Hagen, Harpist 

5.0

  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $400
  • Serves Bourbon, IN

When, I was eight, I announced to my parents, “I want to play the harp.” Their wisely cautious response was to give me a year of piano lessons! But once I got my fingers on strings, there was no looking back. Now I own six harps and play professionally for weddings, churches, senior care as well as arranging and recording. By mixing my years of classical training with my love of different genres I get to help people make memorable events with beautiful music. Meet me and the harps at my website.

Anna was an absolute dream to work with and a true highlight of our daughter’s wedding day. Her harp music added an unparalleled level of elegance and beauty to our lakeside ceremony. Every note she played was flawless and filled the air with an enchanting atmosphere that our guests can’t stop raving about. From our initial communication to the day of the event, Anna was energetic, interested, professional, accommodating, and clearly passionate about her music. She worked with us to customize the playlist, incorporating our special requests seamlessly into her repertoire. From Star Wars to Taylor…..Anna’s performance, delightful personality and contribution to the ceremony was exceptional. If you’re looking for a talented musician who will elevate your event to something truly magical, look no further than Anna Hagen. Her performance was worth every penny and more. Highly recommended!

From its historical beginnings as a stoic munitions depot, The Armory experienced a beautiful transformation to showcase a sophisticated ballroom, classy built-in bar and impressive commercial kitchen. Original element of the 1928 Armory construction and subsequent Newman Recreations Center were incorporated into the even space renovation to provide the perfect blend of past and present.Iron-barred doors used to secure armers and thick concrete walls reinforced with brick to accommodate the National Guard Armory and shooting range lend a rustic industrial aesthetic. Wood from the recreation center bleachers line the dramatic bar and the orginial hardwood floor was dressed up to grace the ballroom. The vaulted timber ceilings and exposed truss work allow the dazzling period chandeliers an opportunity to lend an air of elegance to the urban decor. Charm abounds in the union of classic architecture with a modern flair.

We cannot say enough positive things about Navarre Catering and Events. If you need a catering vendor for your wedding weekend, then Navarre is a great caterer to choose. We worked with Christine, our senior event specialist, and she did a fantastic job helping us navigate all the details of banquet event planning. We contracted Navarre for a Welcome Reception the night before the wedding and for the Wedding Reception itself, and both events were perfect! Our events happened in August 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic and they still went off smoothly. Christine helped us develop a strong plan for guest and staff safety and handled all the venue coordination as well. The food and service staff were excellent at both events! Christine made the awesome suggestion to have a family style platter service for the reception meal to help maintain social distancing, and it, along with the food quality, wound up being one of the most talked about aspects of the reception that our guests LOVED! Our experience working with Christine was comfortable and we really felt like she had our best interests at heart adapting as the planning details changed due to fluid pandemic conditions.

  • Serves Bourbon, IN

Hi there…. My name is Tim and I am the owner of this fun wedding film company. Just to let you know, I LOVE WEDDINGS! To be most accurate, I love the stories of the couples we get to film, and yes the cake too! From getting ready early in the morning chilling with your bridesmaids, hearing all the fun stories of how you meet each other to all the moves being busted on the dance floor, I love capturing it all. Even grabbing a few drinks with your bridal party after rehearsal to get to know everyone better. My approach is to know you and your day to tell it the best through a rocking wedding video.

Working with Tim and Mohr Entertainment was a highlight of our August 2020 wedding. Tim was easy to communicate with leading up to the wedding. He was responsive and my husband and I enjoyed getting to know him and his style. On the day of the wedding, Tim blended in to the background. His second shooter spent the morning with the groomsmen and they commented on how much they enjoyed him being there and the shots he got of them. Tim spent the morning with the ladies in the bridal suite and was never invasive, but still managed to get every moment. He was with us from the very moment we arrived at the bridal suite until the last guest left. Tim produced an incredible preview video within a few days of the wedding and it was a perfect preview of our day while we were still riding the high! Our full length video was delivered in a timely manner and was INCREDIBLE! Tim morphed the video to fit our vibe of the day. We didn't have a slow paced, light wedding, we had a fun, high energy day and Tim somehow managed to capture that! I was in absolute awe of his work and felt totally transported back to my wedding day. I am so thankful to have a video that captures the emotion I was feeling that day. The comment I got most about the video from friends and family was that they were crying one moment and laughing the next. But that describes our day. I could not have imagined a more perfect video to capture our dream day. 100/10, would recommend Tim any day of the week!!!

Though unoccupied now, the original ice-house, brew-house, and malting building still stand across the street, a reminder of the dream Philip Zorn brought with him to America.

I picked this location because of how beautiful the landscape is. So many different spots on the property to get married on, all beautiful. Different locations cost different price. Overall, relatively cheap compared to other venues. When talking to them, I first started with one wedding coordinator. She left and was informed about the new coordinator. She introduced herself and thought she was awesome. She was very tentative to all the details and was very helpful. I wasn’t informed that she had left and a new coordinator had taken her spot. I didn’t know there was a new coordinator until the day before the wedding. She didn’t take charge of anything. She took a back seat to everything. Told her I had a specific song I wanted to play for walking down the aisle. There wasn’t any sort practice with the song at the rehearsal. She couldn’t figure out how to connect my phone to the sound system. She couldn’t figure out how to navigate the song that I had already pulled up on my phone.

The joy and magic that fills weddings is one of my favorite things to photo and film. Getting to photo and film weddings is an excuse to constantly remember my own fairy tale wedding (which we used Zola to help plan!) Wedding photos and videos document your special day for posterity, but they also capture the beginning of your future together. Let me have the honor of photographing or videoing Chapter One of your happily ever after.

My husband and I had a photographer that had an extenuating circumstance a couple days before our event and Adam came through huge for us! He was incredibly easy to talk to, listened to our vision and ran with it — we were blown away by his incredible creativity, quick action, and kindness. He will support you, get the most amazing shots for you and leave you with beautiful memories to look back on. I’m so grateful for Adam and his team for capturing our event! I highly recommend his services.

I'm Audrey Taylor wife, mom, photographer, baker, Coke Zero addict, Hufflepuff, and lover of all things Disney. Throughout my career I worked for large photography firms and privately doing all sort of photography from babies to seniors, weddings to 50th anniversary parties and everything else. I love being able to capture special moments for my clients. Please take the time to look around my site and social media to get to know my style, and always feel free to contact me with any questions.

Audrey was a rockstar! I generally don’t write reviews regardless of experience, but this review is so deserving. She was supposed to have a second photographer with her, but a medical issue occurred with that person and she had to come by herself. Even by herself, she nailed it! She didn’t miss anything and the pictures came out great! We couldn’t be happier with our entire experience and we highly recommend her.

I'm Katie Whitcomb. I am a classic wedding photographer based out of the Notre Dame, IN area. I stop in my tracks for a bright orange sunset, I'm obsessed with all tropical plants (seriously, my foyer is a jungle) and the feeling I get every time I walk into the Basilica of the Sacred Heart will never get old. Thank you for coming by. Let me know if I can do anything to help along the way.

Katie is the most amazing wedding photographer. She blows everyone else out of the water; it's not even close. She photographed my brother's Cape Cod wedding last summer and was so amazing that my family had to hire her for my Philly wedding this summer. She is professional, organized, and involved. She provides a wonderful timeline that sketches out your day in terms of photos. She keeps in touch often throughout the engagement process and helps you develop a vision of your wedding. She is kind and fun!!! She is a wonderful "cheerleader" to have with you on your big day in addition to being the best vendor ever. Then there's her photos. They are seriously gorgeous. They are timeless, classic, and romantic. She has developed a craft that is unmatched. All of my guests have been floored with the photos. Katie just the best!

Thank you so much for coming to my page. Photography has always been a passion of mine, but before photography I was a Firefighter/EMT and absolutely loved the career I was in. However, when my daughter was born, things quickly changed and I wanted to be able to stay home with my daughter and give my family the love and attention they deserve. Thats when I decided to go running full force with my photography business. Ever since then I have been capturing moments since 2021.

Mamas Lens Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, her communication was prompt, helpful, and passionate about capturing our special day. Dezaray has a true gift for documentary-style photography that freezes time and evokes the most emotional moments. Her amazing quality work made the day flow smoothly, as Dezaray provided a detailed timeline and coordination to keep us on track. We highly recommend booking Mamas Lens Photography for any wedding - you will not be disappointed with the incredible final photos that perfectly encapsulate the beauty and love of your celebration.
