Emily is absolutely incredible! From the very start of the wedding planning process to the big day itself, she went above and beyond to make everything seamless and stress-free. She was always available to bounce ideas off of and provided so much valuable insight. Whether it was creating the perfect timeline, coordinating with all our vendors, or helping me elevate our table decor with creative ideas, Emily’s expertise was evident every step of the way. Her support extended beyond the planning process—she was a tremendous help at our rehearsal dinner and took charge of running the wedding day flawlessly. She and her assistant set up the entire ceremony and reception space exactly how I envisioned it, down to the smallest detail. I was so particular about placement, and they followed everything to perfection. The result was absolutely stunning! Any issues that arose on the wedding day were handled so efficiently that I didn’t even know about them until afterward. Emily’s calm presence and ability to manage everything truly put me at ease. And as a thoughtful surprise, a day or two after the wedding, she sent me behind-the-scenes photos and videos that she captured throughout the day—it was such a special and unexpected gift! Emily is not only an incredibly talented coordinator but also one of the kindest people I’ve ever met. I can’t imagine what our wedding day would have been like without her.

Let me share a bit about my journey in the wedding industry. With two decades of experience, I've had the privilege of working with some of the top DJ companies in the area. In 2017, I decided to embark on my own path, and since then, I've earned recognition as a 6-time "Couples Choice Award Winner" and a 3-time "Best of Wedding Award Winner". Notably, I take pride in being the only single-op, black-owned DJ vendor with this honor.

Working alongside Sutle Productions was a fantastic experience. As the photographer at the event, I was able to observe their professionalism and commitment to quality firsthand. From the beginning, their DJ was easy to communicate with, coordinated seamlessly, and made sure we were in sync for key moments, allowing us to capture every special memory smoothly. Their music selection was spot-on and truly set the mood for each part of the event. They read the crowd perfectly and kept the energy high, making sure the dance floor was packed and guests were having an amazing time. Their setup was well-organized and unobtrusive, blending into the event atmosphere while delivering top-notch sound quality. I can confidently say that Sutle Productions offers excellent service and is dedicated to making each couple’s big day a memorable one.

Right Here Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves College Hl, OH

For over 14 years, I’ve been one of the lucky ones who gets to have my passion also be my profession. Under the big skies of Wichita, Kansas, where I was born and raised, I bought my first DSLR camera in 2008 and was hooked for life. Then I landed a job with a national portrait studio and was suddenly getting paid to do what I loved. My love for the craft took me to several cities as a regional manager, and eventually landed me here in Cincinnati. Though I moved on from that job, Cincinnati sunk its claws into me for good. I, my wife Katie, and our four (or more depending on when you ask) beloved cats now call the Queen City home.

Jason is a talented photographer that is easy to work with. He is always quick to respond and takes care of his clients making sure they are comfortable throughout the entire process. I highly recommend him to any bride looking for a photographer for her special day.

Rhinegeist has a beautiful venue set up for weddings, so much that we didn’t have to get much decor because we didn’t want to over shadow the wood and brick aesthetic, the photo opportunities around are also very unique and untraditional which was perfect for us. The beer was also great and the staff was super nice and were there for us whenever we needed them. No one seemed like they didn’t want to be there. The wedding couldn’t have gone smoother.

First off, let me just say how amazing it was to have a mobile bar at my shower. The vibe was instantly giving fancy, and my guests were impressed by the drinks all day! They offered mocktails, which was perfect because not everyone enjoys the bubbly. And speaking of bubbles, they crafted my absolute favorite cocktail, “The Blushing Bride,” which was not only delicious but super Insta-worthy! The bartenders were so friendly and made everyone feel like a million bucks. I called them my hype girls all day lol.

In 1981, The Verdin Company, North America's oldest bell and clock company, purchased historic St. Paul's Church. The beautiful building housed The Verdin Company corporate headquarters and the Verdin Bell and Clock Museum. In the late 1990's, The Bell Event Centre was created in St. Paul's Church. Featuring hand-painted murals, marble, stained glass windows, vaulted ceilings, terrazzo flooring, & a cobblestone courtyard, this spectacular venue made for an unrivaled setting for events. Christy Cafeo & her family were presented the opportunity to purchase The Bell Event Centre in 2008 & has been creating memorable events ever since. With an elegant, historic setting & exceptional amenities, The Bell Event Centre is the perfect place to bring your dream wedding to life!

This is going to be a long one, but Kathy is SO worth it! Kathy and I first met during one of many rough times in my life. I had just lost two wedding venues (one closed and one gave our date away) and had just had arm surgery (which I was awake for and it didn't go great, so I was very traumatized at the time) and I was running late trying to parallel park my car with one arm. I remember Kathy calling and me crying on the phone saying how I was struggling to park and Kathy offered to park the car for me. The moment she whipped that car into its spot, I knew she was the one for me. I have numerous health issues and trying to explain my dream wedding and how those issues fit into it, as well as all the normal overwhelming aspects of wedding planning, seemed daunting to explain to a stranger, but Kathy really understood. She got it. Meeting Kathy was one of the best things that ever happened to me honestly. She not only got my wedding back on track, but became one of my closest friends and confidants. Kathy helped me find the most amazing vendors, from the photographer to the DJ, and averted so many crises, from helping find someone to rescue my dress the day before the wedding after the alterationist didn't finish it (but said he did, amongst other issues) to making the random "bubble guy" disappear (apparently people follow wedding parties now and literally stalk you to the church and then offer to blow bubbles for photos for money, but he wouldn't leave after we said no until Kathy stepped in) and everything in between. If you are the person that crazy, random stuff happens to all the time and you really need someone who is at the top of their game, I cannot recommend Kathy enough. If you are looking for someone who will be a friend and a confidant, a protector and manager and emotional support through a challenging part of your life, I recommend Kathy. If you are looking for someone who is a genuinely kind and happy person who will make you feel safe and better about yourself after every conversation you have with them, I recommend Kathy. Kathy, thank you, truly from the bottom of my heart, for making it Our Dream Day! We love you!

Hello! My name is Christian. I'm an artist. Whether camera shy or not, my couples and their friends or family have a great time with me and I make the experience pretty easy and enjoyable since I'm an awesome director. It has taken me a lot of studying, practice and natural talent to get to where I am today. I've documented over 600 weddings leaving many happy clients in many different areas of the world.

My fiancé and I hired this company for both our photo and video services, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the results. The photos were stunning, with a polished, magazine-worthy quality that felt like something out of a celebrity shoot. The video was equally impressive—fun, engaging, and expertly crafted. From start to finish, we felt completely at ease on our wedding day. Communication was seamless throughout the planning process, and they were by far the fastest responding vendor we worked with. The team was punctual, reliable, and incredibly easygoing. They made everything feel effortless and were always understanding and flexible, never demanding. We truly couldn't have asked for a better experience.

I booked Chenese for my wedding makeup based on her great reviews and amazing work and I am so glad I did. My wedding was planned in 2 months and she was able to easily schedule me for my run through and wedding makeup. She was available to speak to me and answer questions leading up to my run through appointment. She was extremely thorough in her questions and professional at all times during the makeup run through. She asked thoughtful questions and made me really hone in on what I wanted. It was a smooth and easy process. On the day of my wedding she was on time and very helpful. And her work was beautiful! I got compliments all night and wore my makeup long into the night, with it looking just as she first did it. I was so pleased with how I looked on my wedding day thanks to Chenese - I truly felt like a princess. She also did wonderful work on my mother who is in her 60s and she made sure her makeup looked appropriate to her age. I also found out afterwards that she also did several of my cousins makeup for their weddings! I have found my makeup artist here in Cincinnati!

Megan shot our wedding in July 2024. From start to finish, her communication and professionalism were excellent. Neither of us are super comfortable in front of the camera, but Megan walked us through the posing and made us feel at ease. She was extremely organized, helping us create a timeline and sticking to it on the big day. This made sure everything flowed smoothly, and she coordinated effortlessly with our other vendors. Megan made the photo process efficient, allowing us more time to enjoy our day with our guests. She truly captured the magic of our wedding day. She felt more like a friend than just a photographer. Our photos were returned earlier than expected and look absolutely beautiful—better than we could have imagined. We can’t recommend her services enough!

My therapist says there is no such thing as a bridezilla, but I think I got close. Amanda and the rest of the Mojave East team did everything in their power to reduce my stress and make my day awesome. I wasn't allowed to get hungry, stressed, or into micro manager mode. They made sure I was focused on my husband and our family. I had a great day, so much that I'm hoping to have our anniversary party there. if they have your event date available, jump on it. It's a beautiful space, the acoustics are nice inside and out, and you can decorate it almost any way you want. They have great relationships with vendors, and make sure your day is wonderful from the time you get out of the limo to the time you get back in at the end of the night.
