Was referred to ESA from someone in my opinion whom was less than professional in her communication. So there was a little trepidation at first. However, from our first interaction with Christena at ESA to the end of the event Christena conducted herself in a professional and exceptional manner. From her initial communication, to vendor recommendations to all of the questionnaires to ensure the events moved smoothly were all investments that showed Christena cared. We used ESA for day of wedding coordination as well as a surprise birthday party the day before the wedding g. Yep, busy, busy, busy. Christena was there for a walk through at the venue which was 2 hours from her home base. She stayed in contact throughout the months leading up the the events and take the lead with vendor a onto or so before. She helped to keep us on track and was available via email with short turn around times. Although their was a LOT of planning prior to the wedding, Christena was more than helpful keeping us on track and ensuring the wedding day could be enjoyed without worrying about last minute pop up issues, and there were a few. Her team was able to resolve a bartender issue causing minimal interruption for guests. In the end Christena felt more like a guest as much as a vendor for each event. We are grateful for the service Christena provided and would highly recommend her and her company, ESA to anyone wanting a coordinator to help ease the stresses of such and important and joyous day!!

Hello! I’m Savannah, the photographer behind Savannah Rose Photography. Photography started out as a fun hobby, but when I was 16 I decided to take a film class in high school and that’s when I realized “this is it”. I have been able to be a full time photographer for 8+ years. I love being able to use my passion for art and photography to help you create uniquely beautiful memories that you will enjoy for years to come. I am definitely guilty of being a bit of a perfectionist which ensures that I do everything I can to give you the best photography experience, whether it be portrait session or on your wedding day.

Savannah photographed our proposal as well as our wedding and both sets of photos came out so beautiful! She is the sweetest and so fun to work with! Prior to the wedding she took time to talk to me and make sure we were on the same page for how we wanted the photos to feel and look, what poses or types of shots we might have especially wanted etc. (but was also so good about helping direct us if we got in an awkward posing situation!!) and had beautiful ideas for photos that didn’t just look like every single other wedding picture you’ve seen! She also made sure everything for the day of was coordinated with a photo schedule for our first look and things like the family shots which made everything run smooth and was very stress free for everyone involved. She perfectly timed out when and where we would need to be for the best lighting and even before that (since our photos after the ceremony were off site) made sure that location was just right and would work well. She honestly thought of everything and her preparation was obvious in how perfect the photos turned out! Savannah captured the special parts of that busy day but also little things I was too distracted to really soak in, she’s worth every bit!

I cannot even begin to describe how amazing it was to work with Jacqueline for our wedding this past weekend. She was extremely easy-going, communicative, professional, and always quick to respond for the entire year leading up to our wedding. So it came as no surprise that on our wedding day she absolutely crushed it. She captured our day so seamlessly. She was never in the way, never made us uncomfortable and just blended into the background in all the right ways. She made the wedding party and family photos process quick and painless which I know from experience can sometimes prove to be a disaster or just unorganized and chaotic at weddings. I was even MORE blown away when she delivered some photos the morning after our wedding after probably being up super late after getting home from our wedding. Talk about going above and beyond and exceeding expectations!!! I could not have asked for a better photographer to play such a huge part in our big day and I would recommend Jacqueline to ANYONE.

If you are reading this review, congratulations — you're likely about to hire one of the best photographers in the Midwest. (And, luckily for everyone else, he'll travel anywhere.) Michael is so talented and creative, and I've been fortunate to enjoy his work over the years as both a friend and a client. I've also worked alongside him in the wedding industry when I used to do wedding videography. He is professional, fun, and always up for adventure. He isn't afraid to think out of the box when it comes to photos. Your wedding photos certainly won't look just like everyone else's. If you're planning a unique wedding that perfectly captures who you are, Michael is your guy. He finds the best things about each couple and captures them perfectly. Have a crazy idea? He'll do it. Want to elope in Antarctica? He's already booked his ticket, probably. (One time he shot a wedding in Fargo, drove back to Sioux Falls through the night, hopped on a plane the next morning, and I picked him up in Denver a few hours later to shoot another wedding. He doesn't give an 'eff about nothin' — he'll do it.) (If you're planning a boring, stereotypical wedding, he'll do an amazing job of that, too. Just know that this guy is up for adventure.) On your wedding day, you may notice his calm and confident demeanor. He makes each couple feel comfortable by giving just enough direction for photos, while still letting the moments play out naturally. You will feel so comfortable with him, and he'll make sure the schedule of your day runs smoothly. So, hire the guy. You won't regret it for a second. Then, when you see how fantastic your photos turn out, print 'em out and slap 'em on your walls forever. Then, be sure to send Michael a bottle of fine scotch for a job well done.

Offering MC/DJ packages, lighting, photobooths, and even videography we can build the ultimate experience for you and your wedding. Our DJs are trained to create an epic dancefloor no matter what and we guarantee your guests will be saying "That was the best wedding reception....ever!"

I got married on June 15, and Mason was our DJ. He was absolutely amazing and made our wedding so much fun! I highly, highly recommend him. From our first meeting to the big day, he made everything so easy. We had multiple meetings to go over every detail, even things I hadn’t thought about (and I’m definitely Type A). So many friends and family members came up to me during and after the wedding to say how great he was and to ask for his information for future events. I honestly don’t have a single negative thing to say about him. Mason even got on the dance floor to teach some dances and was constantly helping with other wedding-related tasks besides the music, like making a schedule, helping with our slide show, watching over our raffle stuff and keeping it safe, helping tear up tickets, and so much more. I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else there for that day! He was fantastic on the mic, keeping the energy high and ensuring everyone had a great time. The dance floor stayed full the entire night which was definitely a fear of mine but EVERYONE danced ALL NIGHT! Mason truly did an amazing job. If you’re looking for a DJ, I promise you, Mason is your guy!

Hey, how cool of you to end up here. I promise not to bore you with a bunch of flowery language or over-the-top promises. I love to document real moments. Weddings, elopements, couples' shenanigans - you name it, I am here for it. I do this with a healthy dose of humor, a dash of sarcasm and a whole lot of heart. So if you're looking for someone to capture your story in all its imperfect glory, say something, let's make it happen.

Loy at Sweet Lime takes some great photos. He was a joy to work with and helped set the room up by providing a suggestion that none of the restaurant staff, or us, had thought of which ended up working swimmingly. The day of the wedding, he was present but also not too if that makes sense. He was kind enough to send us a couple preview shots while we impatiently/patiently waited. The photos are well worth the wait. I would be happy to recommend Sweet Lime Photography. You will not be disappointed in his service.

I am lucky; I get to do what I love for a living, have a ton of fun doing it, and meet a lot of great people along the way. It's a bonus that I get to also travel a lot for it as well. I hope to always bring that enthusiasm and fun to every wedding as well. I tell myself before every wedding to treat it like it was my very first. I do only weddings, and I only do 30 per year. This lets me focus on my couples and their weddings, and to tell their stories completely. Over 400 weddings spanning 12+ years. And I have never missed a one. Not even late. I may not take myself too seriously, but I take my commitment to my couple seriously.

Cody is very personable, accommodating and enthusiastic. His ability to see a vision and capture through his lens is second to none. Having watched him work with hundreds of brides and seeing the results you know he is a true artist. All of his positive attributes made it a simple decision to utilize his talents for our family photos. We unequivocally support Cody and are confident he will capture your special moments.

My name is Steph Stanglin and I am an experienced wedding and special event planner! My goal is to create lifelong memories for my couple through beautiful, customized bridal events. Some fun facts about me are: I have 2 cats (Milo and Kiro) and 1 dog (Rory), My goal is to visit every state and continent before I turn 40, I'm a certified Swiftie, and Reality TV and chocolate are my guilty pleasures. Most likely to be seen carrying a binder and crying at first looks and vows.

I cannot say thank you enough to Steph! She was absolutely amazing. She was so committed to learning what aspects of the wedding were most important to us and making sure they happened on the day of. For example, we were getting caught up in the dancing and were going to skip the cake cutting. She didn’t push, she just asked, “Are you sure? You told me that this was something that was important to you, so I just want to check”. And I’m so thankful she did that, because it’s one of my favorite wedding moments! She went absolutely above and beyond for us. I am currently in medical school and was so stressed leading up to the wedding, but Steph made me feel like it was possible. She was so organized and wrote out every detail we discussed. She went out of her way to suggest some vendors we were struggling to book last minute, and the list goes on. I cannot recommend Steph enough. She is wonderful and sweet and kind and I cannot believe I found her! We could not have done it without her.

I have been coordinating events for 5+ years and fell in love with the methodical creation that comes from planning each different event. Each event is different and has it's own challenges which makes the entire process that much more exciting.

Audrei from Luxury Affairs was so helpful for our Day of Coordination on our wedding. She was flexible, communicative, and seemed to be everywhere we needed her to be! Audrei is very efficient and was able to be the eyes and ears that I couldn't be day of. She kept the whole day running smoothly and we are so appreciative! Thanks Audrei for making our wedding day perfect.

I highly recommend Kylee Jade Photography for your engagement and wedding photos! From the planning meetings to our wedding day, Kylee made it all so easy for us. She made our engagement and wedding photos so much fun. She does such a great job at capturing real, raw and natural moments. I love that when we look at our photos, I see “us” instead of staged and awkward poses. She helped us feel at ease during our day. I appreciated her expertise in helping with our wedding day timeline, choosing the right location for the photos and taking the stress of this part of wedding planning off of our shoulders. She is detailed oriented and made the planning easy! She is a joy to work with! We will always treasure our wedding day photos!

I have been a wedding planner for over 20 years. I am here to support your ideas and help you find ways to make your wedding day the experience you imagine. I also specialize in planning weddings in a very short amount of time. Its a wonderful challenge and you’ll receive no judgement from me about your timelines! There are no geographic limitations. I’m comfortable working remotely for the planning process and have traveled extensively domestically and abroad. I have supported people from all backgrounds in their journey towards a lifetime of love together. I network extensively with other vendors & have a passion for collaboration.

If there is one decision you must make for your wedding, you must hire Sholeh as your wedding planner or coordinator. Sholeh is everything that every good planner should be. She is organized, thoughtful, flexible, down-to-earth, detail oriented, solution oriented, and extremely kind. She was recommended to us by our wedding venue and to say we were not disappointed would be the understatement of the century. Initially, we hired Sholeh for half-day coordination services, and planned to have the in-house reception planner handle the remainder of the day. But when the venue coordinator fell through, we immediately called Sholeh in a panic and she said, "Don't worry, consider me your full-day coordinator now." She hardly even charged us a substantial upcharge for planning the entire day. On the day of the wedding, she truly felt like family. She arrived on-time, with her wagon full of supplies, ready and eager to help. She made sure everyone was fed, went out of her way to spend quality time with the mother of the bride and bride's sister, and executed every detail to perfection. She even sewed one of the groom's cousins back into her dress at the reception. Sholeh is a dream come true. We could truly write pages about how wonderful she truly is. Believe us when we say that you must must must hire Sholeh!

A Charleston Wedding Photographer with a fierce love for storytelling, fostering memories and capturing those moments that you will want to treasure forever. I get to tell your story. And, I think that’s pretty cool. I love traveling everywhere and anywhere, talking with my hands, buying plants (and attempting to keep them alive), and spending as much time as I can with my loved ones. I have lived in Boston, Paris, and New York City, and am now lucky enough to call Charleston home, while also still traveling the world for my clients. You can usually find me on my back porch in downtown Charleston, right next to my favorite little park.

tldr: Jessica is amazing and I don’t think you can go wrong with her if this is the style of photos you like I had a lot of difficulty picking a photographer as I’m pretty picky with photos. I knew I wanted something bright and light, with kind of a whimsical or ethereal vibe, but it was really hard finding the style until I came across the “fine art” style. Jessica’s name came up while researching this style and I decided to reach out to her among a few other fine art photographers. I definitely hoped talks would go well with Jessica as the others I contacted ended up either not responding or were wildly out of my budget. Pre-Planning: Jessica was wonderful throughout this process. She promptly responded to my emails and answered questions clearly. I never felt like I was left in the dark for any part of the process. When I sent her the timeline of the ceremony/reception, she quickly came up with a timeline to slot in all the photos to be taken ahead of time at the location (We had access to the venue for a little over an hour prior to the ceremony). She also asked for a list of family photos that we wanted to take. This made it very easy at the wedding as she could call out people’s name to make sure everyone that was supposed to be in the pictures, were in the pictures. Jessica also sent over a list of ideas for detail shots and explained she could do this ahead of time. We didn’t want extra pictures of these and decided against it, however, I still thought it was very thoughtful of her to offer. Wedding Day: I loved her energy at the wedding. She was very calm and felt very competent. She directed my husband and I throughout the pictures, showing us poses etc. During family and wedding party photos, even though we had many bodies to fit in the frame in quite a few pictures, she led us through them with ease and the entire experience was very stress free (or as stress free as can be at a wedding lol). The venue was quite dim at specific locations, but the final results did not reflect that at all. The pictures were bright and did not look like they were taken in the dark at all. (This is a little off topic but I loved the little apron with pockets she wore for her equipment. So cute) I’m not sure when Jessica had the time, but there were pictures around the venue which were so beautiful. I definitely feel like the day was captured through the pictures. Post Wedding: Jessica sent us a sneak peak 2 days after the wedding containing 23 pictures. They turned out great and were beautiful. You can see examples on her website so I won’t elaborate, but they really are that good. The full gallery was sent almost a month after the wedding (minus 2 days) with instructions on purchasing prints or an album attached. The full download contained 650ish files, including the sneak peek pictures. Half of which were black and white, so this matched up pretty perfectly with Jessica’s estimation of the amount of photos when we spoke in the pre-planning stage.
