ap FILM & PHOTO

  • Photographer
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Cedar Rapids, IA

I’m Ashlee - owner of ap FILM & PHOTO and I’m so glad you found me! Based out of Cedar Rapids (born, raised and stayed) but I’m down to go anywhere our hearts desire. My photography style is joyous, candid and it looks moody and bright all at the same time. If that’s what you’re after - let’s get started!

Ashlee is the best to work with. I can’t wait to see the rest of my album, I’m already giddy with the sneak peak! She was absolutely everything I wanted in a photographer and more. My husband wasn’t wanting pictures, but during the wedding and afterwards, he was so grateful we had Ashlee capture it. Her style was what I was dreaming of, and if you’re worried about posing, she helps coach your poses. Our wedding was a fantastic day, and she’s one of the reasons it was.

Graphic Formation Films

Cedar Rapids, IA
  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $6,500

I am a midwest filmmaker who specializes in weddings. My passion for filming weddings started with me documenting my own life and family events. I've fallen in love with genuine moments and preserving memories that can be relived in the future.

My husband and I had the best experience working with Ben. We had to postpone our celebration due to Covid in 2020 and Ben offered to film our very small ceremony then come film our big party in Sept of 2021! It was such a pleasure working with him and he made us feel so comfortable and was so accommodating through all the struggle. I was blown away by our videos. They are so fun, personal, and special to us. I love how the vibe of our video is very unique and catered to our relationship and personalities. Do not hesitate to have Ben as your videographer for the big day!

Lauren was my wedding planner and she was absolutely amazing. I couldn’t have imagined my wedding day without her. She helped me find vendors, she made my timeline, she coordinated with my vendors, and she made the day run so smoothly. Also, she decorated the venue so I could relax the day before my wedding. It was a dream to work with Lauren. Mercedes helped out on the day of my wedding and Lauren and Mercedes are a great team. Mercedes helped keep everything on time during the reception and she made sure my husband and I were well taken care of. I would absolutely hire Elizabeth Bliss Events again in a heart beat.

Oasis Salon & Spa 

4.0

  • Beauty professional
  • Starts at $70
  • Serves Cedar Rapids, IA

Our carefully chosen and highly trained staff is here to exceed your expectations. The same goes for our elegant salon space —dedicated to guest comfort — and our devotion to innovation and artistry. We’re focused on making your day and continually raising the bar. We are also proud to align with Aveda’s mission of ethical and sustainable business practices and its high-fashion aesthetic. We share Aveda’s exceptional standards of quality products, treatments, and guest care, and everything we do reflects the standards of an Aveda salon.

Oasis Salon & Spa was the hair and makeup vendor for my wedding this past August. The girls we ended up working with were great; super friendly and everyone was happy with their hair and makeup the day of. They worked with me to figure out my makeup look as I was struggling to figure out what I wanted. I had 2 trials where they walked me through different ideas and modified the day of as well. The airbrush makeup was also great on the hot August day and held up the whole day! The reason I didn't give 5 stars was when figuring out the details of the day, I was told we would receive 2 hair stylists and 2 makeup artists to be able to get through the amount of services we needed in the timeframe we outlined with our DOC. I even booked them 11 months in advance. Unfortunately when we showed up to the venue that morning, there was only 1 hair stylist and 2 makeup artists. While the hair stylist worked as fast as she could, it still put us 20-30 minutes behind schedule and didn't allow time for her to show me how to put my veil underneath my updo. Because of this, we were behind schedule for pictures and I wasn't able to wear my veil the way we had discussed. I wish they had been up front on capacity or communicated the change in number of hair stylists assigned to our wedding. The ability to get 10 hair and 10 makeups done in 4 hours was the main reason I choose Oasis.
