In fact, there were moments I didn't even realize there was an issue until they had already resolved it! Their guidance throughout the night was invaluable, ensuring every detail was executed flawlessly.

She even checked in with us the next day and after the honeymoon! I don’t know if it’s wedding blues or maybe it’s just that I miss you lol But either way thank you, Belinda, for everything you did to make our wedding day absolutely magical!

Scarlet was so resourceful and easy to work with. We love our engagement and wedding photos. Neither of us has ever really been part of a wedding so we didn't know much going into this. She was helpful not only with all things photography of course but just there to answer any wedding questions and help us as best she could. Our wedding day she took control and we didn't feel overwhelmed. She handled our families with patience and just the right amount of assertiveness. They were a wild bunch to get together for photos.

Crystal Plaza 

5.0

Livingston, NJ
  • Venue
  • Up to 350 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $40,000

Before it became our beloved event venue, the historic Crystal Plaza was originally a residential mansion. The initial Livingston, New Jersey-based residence was built in the late 1800s by famed architect Stanford White, who was responsible for designing the Tiffany building on Fifth Avenue, the original Madison Square Garden complex among other landmark structures. While the restored building has since been reincarnated as one of the leading wedding and event spaces in the tri-state area, it still maintains the feeling of its 19th century grandeur. Our impeccable, white-glove service begins the moment you arrive. Crystal Plaza hosts only one event at a time, ensuring that our dedicated team focuses singularly on you and your every need. From the elegant Grand Ballroom boasting numerous chandeliers (how the Crystal Plaza name came to be) to the lush gardens that change beautifully with the seasons, there are myriad backdrops to complement your wedding, social affair or corporate event.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our winter wedding at Crystal Plaza and the incredible team of warm and dedicated staff. While wedding planning can certainly bring on the stress, our wedding planning process with Max and his team was not only enjoyable, but FUN! His professional expertise, honesty, and attention to detail was invaluable and beyond appreciated. This is not your average wedding culinary experience. It's obvious Crystal Plaza cares deeply about cuisine and we were blown away by every bite and sip. Our guests have not stopped raving about the culinary experience and the unique presentations of food and drink. The Penthouse and Vault (where the bride/groom/bridal party/groomsmen get ready) is out of this world. There is no other venue with this level of accommodation for both the bride and groom. It was so much fun treating the bridal party to a morning of pampering and having the groomsmen be just as excited about getting ready in the morning was incredible. They won't stop talking about the golf simulator and cigar lounge. I cannot recommend Crystal Plaza enough. 5 STARS ALL AROUND!

I've always been relationship driven. It's our connections with those close to us that makes our life's experience that much richer. It's no surprise that my clients naturally become a part of my family. There is no other industry in which I believe I am better suited. We are a good fit if you are looking for a fresh, enthusiastic, seasoned professional who will put you at ease, make you laugh, and spend quality time with you before, during, and after your wedding day. Getting to know each other on a personal level allows us to foster a bond that enables me to capture and deliver stunning images you'll cherish for the rest of your life.

Awarded Best of Zola
Back in 2016, during my brief 4 year stint doing wedding photography, Daniel joined a wedding photography FB group I was a member of, and I was quickly impressed with his eagerness to learn the art of photography. In search of an assistant/third shooter for an upcoming wedding, I decided to hire Daniel. When we first spoke on the phone, I liked him immediately. He came across very friendly, attentive and easy to get along with. It also helped that he is a fellow drummer and Rush fan!! Over the years since then, I’ve watched him grow into a phenomenal photographer, and I knew that he was the man for my own wedding. Certainly not a standard issue photographer, his work has always impressed me. His creative use of light (both natural and artificial) and slow shutter effects make for some of the most gorgeous photos one will ever see. In fact, one of my favorite shots of the day was using the slow shutter effect and a group of complete strangers he convinced to help us! But beyond his photographic skills, Daniel is just a solid human being! He has a very calming presence, which is always welcome when you have the wedding day jitters. He knows how to have a little fun during the day, but is always 100 percent focused on you and your wedding day. Simply stated, you’d be a fool not to hire him for your own wedding! “Living in a fish eye lens, caught in the camera eye” - NEP

I cannot recommend Sophie enough for wedding make up. My wife and I used Sophie as our makeup artist for ourselves, our two moms, and my sister-in-law. Getting your make up done is an intimate process and sets the tone for the entire day and with Sophie there I felt beautiful and comfortable the whole time. We were not able to do a make up trial due to my schedule so she worked with me prior to my wedding day via zoom to make sure she knew exactly what I wanted. She sent me examples and helped me articulate my vision and even tried the looks on herself so that I could see them come to life. On the day of I felt so glam and powerful. My look lasted through performances and lots of dancing and my pictures from the end of the night are still STUNNING with no touch ups required (though she did provide us with the cutest touch up kits) My wife’s style and comfort with make up is much different than mine so she did a make up trial and Sophie helped her to find a look that was “wedding glam” but still felt authentic. Our looks were very different and incredibly “us” and showed off Sophie’s range and talent. Logistically, she is a complete professional with high end products that she organizes for ease of use and hygiene. Though my make up ran much longer than intended, she had anticipated that and so we still finished exactly on time. I never felt rushed or stressed - only like an absolute queen. It was the perfect way to start my wedding day and was worth every single penny.

Working with Bryan was a joy. He is communicative, kind, relaxed, and so skilled in his art. He took the time to get to know us as a couple first and then as clients, which I'm sure helped his understanding of what we wanted and needed to capture. He knew the prompts to suggest to create gorgeous photos and was willing to work with is with the many things we wanted to try during portraits and the reception (including dealing with rain and a huge group photo where he graciously accepted standing on a chair to get the shot). He was thorough and got every shot that we asked for and used his talent and skill to give us many more that have become our favorites. The photos were given to us extremely fast and at a beautiful quality – everyone we've shown them to adores them. He was accommodating on the day and the result is nothing short of stunning – it helps us relive the day in clarity, which is priceless.

The Loveday Band is a wedding musician group located in North New Jersey. This band specializes in performing at wedding receptions, cocktail hours, and ceremonies. The musicians are devoted to providing couples and guests with a party that exceeds all expectations. These talented and experienced musicians are aiming to introduce a new conception of music with their large repertoire. The Loveday Band provides lighting and a sound system for the events that they perform at. The band is willing to learn new songs for couples who have their heart set on something specific.

We were on the hunt for the perfect band for my wedding on Zola, WeddingWire and The Knot. My fiancé and I wanted to find a band that had no negative reviews. We came across bands with 500 reviews, but after reading some bad feedback, we started feeling concerned. Fortunately, we stumbled upon Loveday band, which had nothing but positive reviews - and it turned out to be the best decision we made! When we visited their website, we were delighted to hear their organic sound, which sounded so close to the original songs on their promotional video. After reaching out to them for more information, we had a couple of chats, and finally set a date to meet at my parent's house. It was a fantastic meeting; everyone loved Marcel. He was funny and went over all the details. We were sold and decided to go with them. Our wedding was absolutely amazing, from the ceremony to the reception. Loveday band's talented musicians brought the house down and lived up to everything we saw in their promotional video. They sounded incredible and kept the guests dancing all night on a packed dance floor. There wasn't a single guest at their table during the reception! We received compliments from every guest about the band we hired. I would highly recommend Loveday band to friends or anyone looking for a band for their big day. Many thanks to Loveday band for delivering a perfect evening performance! Doug & Jenny

Orchard Street Photography was a preferred vendor on a list that our venue (The North Shore House) provided to us. After speaking with Julian for the first time, it was an instant match. My husband and I explained that we were looking for an authentic, unstaged, photojournalistic depiction of our wedding day. When we looked at the pictures, we wanted to be able to feel exactly how we felt that day. We got married last week and from the sneak peaks that we’ve seen Julian and Sarah captured that, despite inclement weather! We couldn’t imagine our wedding without either of them! We had two photographers for 8 hours, which was able to cover getting ready photos, the ceremony, family portraits, and the reception. Never having planned a wedding before, Julian was completely honest with us, shared his professional opinions, and advised based on our requests. His laid back demeanor, go-with-the-flow attitude and artistic vision complemented our day perfectly. We had three children in our wedding party and he was so great with them as well. From the two pictures they’ve shared on social media, they’ve captured exactly what we wanted. Can’t wait to see the rest! Book this Orchard Street, I promise you won’t regret it!

We really could not be happier with Rich and his second shooter for our big day! He was professional and fun, and already delivered a ton of preview photos even though our wedding was a few days ago. We're so excited to see the film photos as well. He was willing to go along with some of our more time-consuming schemes (first look on top of a ski hill) and still managed to keep us on track. It was great not having to worry about anything the day of, because we knew he was on top of everything!

Stanhope, NJ
  • Venue
  • Up to 200 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $19,000

Featuring a working mill, blacksmith shop, active church, and several beautiful historic houses, Waterloo Village is a time capsule surrounded by an air of tranquil beauty. With its rich history, Waterloo Village is the perfect setting for weddings. Boasting two spectacular indoor event spaces—the newly-renovated meeting house and the rustic pavilion—in addition to its spacious outdoor compound, Waterloo has the resources and ambiance to make your special occasion a memorable success. As a remarkably well-preserved example of a 19th-Century canal town and the site of a 400-year-old Lenape Indian village, Waterloo Village is an incredibly valuable piece of New Jersey history. Waterloo is open to the public as part of Allamuchy Mountain State Park and home to many events and educational programs to teach and inform visitors about the past. When you choose Waterloo Village as the setting for your event, a portion of proceeds will go towards the preservation and restoration of the site.

Our experience so far with Waterloo Village and their staff has been amazing. From the moment we walked onto the property at Waterloo, we knew it was going to be our wedding venue! Between the beautiful farm, the adorable animals (love the alpacas), the gorgeous canal and historic homes, and the venue itself, we made our venue decision very quick! We got to see all of the ceremony spots which were all beautiful in their own unique way, but since our wedding is in summer we fell in love with their Secret Garden location. It is tucked away in the trees and just gives very magical vibes. So we are super excited! Once we picked Waterloo as our venue, it only got better from there. Everyone has been extremely friendly and helpful. We brought our families to the open house and both sets of parents could not believe how incredible the food was! JAM catering does an amazing job of make fresh food that is sustainable and mostly grown by them (AMAZING)! At our tasting, it was incredible how organized and friendly all of the staff were. We cannot wait for our wedding at Waterloo Village!

My name is Jia, I am a lover of Seafood, Peking Duck, and Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Lattes. I also love to see people smile. I believe that all smiles are contagious, this is why I chose wedding photography: it magically makes me smile more. I love the warm sunlight and true emotions from both the bride and the groom. Now looking back, I am really thankful that clients appreciate my artistic vision more than my professional equipment. PS: Personally, I’d avoid the moon but I am more than happy to photograph you anywhere on earth. :)

Awarded Best of Zola
I don’t even know where to begin to describe just how amazing Jia is as not only a photographer but a videographer as well. I had initially found him through my best friend Sam, who he had done BOTH photo and video for, and I was blown away by his amazing work. He was kind enough to do the videography for my wedding and I am so grateful that he did. Not only does he do amazing work, but he is professional, kind, pays attention to every detail, and he ended up being the life of the party at the wedding. All of my guests adored him, and he made everyone feel so comfortable. When my husband and I received our video, we were both in tears. You can really tell how much time and effort Jia put into it. If you are in search of a photographer or videographer do not hesitate to book Jia from Frame Your Love Photography. You surely will not regret it!! attached are some screen shots from my wedding video because they are just too good not to share.

A small studio in Union NJ with big plans! I have been a photographer for 6 years working as a freelancer. Learning on the field like back in the day is the best way to learn everything about photography. Starting a Zola is the first step to branch from a freelancer to a business owner / photographer. Im starting my own business for my baby, Xavier. Working at your wedding helps me be with my family longer.

We booked Malta Studio for our wedding at the end of August 2024 and we were blow away with how exceptional their work was. They pay attention to every detail in your day. They did more than just take pictures but helped me create the dream day that I wanted! Everyone who attended our wedding pointed out how on top of everything they truly were. Couldn’t have asked for more at all. We can’t wait to see it from their eyes!

After some research, I decided to go with Prime Star Visuals for part of my wedding. They were very informative from the beginning and responded quickly with great details on my questions. Dave and team present me with many options that would fit my request. All the pictures were fantastic and I was so pleased that I called them back for a family session photoshoot. The entire team were very professional and were prepared with quality and high-end technologies. Satisfied customer and will be calling them back. I wish that I would have used them for our wedding.
