Merkels Floral Studio 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $10,000
  • Serves Dorset, OH

Founded in 1940, when we say we have decades of experience, we really mean it. Since then our love for flowers and our team has only grown. Day to day you can catch us designing floral arrangements and delivering them by the truck full. We source locally whenever possible (of course). We especially love weddings and just adore our brides. Aside from that, we are probably spending any other spare time cheering on fellow entrepreneurs and our favorite vendors of this industry. We love to pour back into our city by supporting local events, schools, and the animal shelter. And we could go on of course, but there is a word limit :)

I can't say enough good things about Merkel's Floral! They truly went above and beyond for our wedding, delivering arrangements that were more perfect than we could have hoped for. The flower arch was stunning—fresh, vibrant and overall perfection. Guests couldn’t stop complimenting the floral displays throughout the day. I’m so grateful to have had them as part of our special celebration! Kristin is also so incredibly talented and sweet, she makes communicating easy and responds quickly. Overall- such a wonderful experience. Highly recommend!

  • Serves Dorset, OH

You’ve got the ring, found the dream destination or venue, definitely at least thought about the dress - now all you have to do is find THE photographer. The one who’s down to travel, down to party, and most of all, down to help you perfect alllll the details of your dream day. I’ve been photographing intimate weddings in Ohio + beyond for the last 10 years - there’s nothing I don’t know about getting hitched, and nothing I don’t love about it.

Kayla has been working with my family for over 3 years and she is simply the best. She’s so talented, kind, and so patient with our little one. She creates a bond with her clients that you will forever cherish!

Follow the Sun

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Dorset, OH

Established in 2018, Follow the Sun has taken the Cleveland music scene by storm with its distinct sound, diverse taste in music, and a broad range of vocals. Their members consist of Bob Wick on drums, Richie Jackson on lead guitar, Gene Guercia on rhythm, Ryan Bellinger on bass, and Laura Fedor and Sophie Jackson on lead vocals.

Follow the Sun was absolutely incredible! They were everything we could have hoped for and more on our big day. They were so helpful every step of the way and were excellent at communicating. They performed our ceremony and cocktail hour as well and were absolutely fantastic. It’s been over 6 months since our wedding and people still say that they were the best band they’ve ever seen at a wedding and we couldn’t agree more! We are huge fans now and have seen them perform other places and they are amazing all around! We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a band. They made our day perfect and will do the same for you!!!

Awarded Best of Zola
These ladies are phenomenal! We hired them for our wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made for our day. From our first chat over zoom, we knew instantly that we could trust them and that they would capture us, not just a one-size-fits-all deal. They truly capture each couple in their own unique way and you can tell just by looking at their work. I’m so glad we did an engagement shoot first, because it got all the nerves out for us and we got to build more of a relationship with them before our day. We are not people who like being in front of cameras, but their enthusiasm and professionalism put us, especially me, at instant ease! The photos turned out great even with it being an unforcasted rainy and unusually hot fall day. And the wedding, holy moly! They had to wrangle all sorts of family dynamics and chaos while still taking beautiful photos in the rain. Not sure how that happened, but they made it all seem so easy and we had so much fun with them! We didn’t have to worry about a thing! …Not one thing! We received our first look photos in no time after the wedding and we are in love already. Can’t wait to see the rest! We will definitely be contacting them again in the future. Wherever you are in your photographer search (and reading reviews like this), just stop and set up a chat now. You will not be disappointed!

My husband was searching for venues and we came across Kingsville Lodge. The location was perfect, a middle point between our families, out in the country, a breathtaking view, and a place we could have our wedding, reception and lodging in one location. The lodge was everything we dreamed it would be. The inside is gorgeous, the upstairs room was the perfect size and lighting for incredible getting ready photos! The ceremony was even more beautiful than I imagined. The lodge ceremony can be personalized anyway you decide which makes it unique for every couple! Sharyn was absolutely phenomenal through everything. She made sure the landscaper was there the day before we checked in to ensure the property was perfect for our special day and that the shed was full of wood for the fire! Sharyn pays attention to all of the small details so you as the happy couple don't have to. She made everything so easy for us, and the lodge is beautiful. We have gotten SO many compliments about our wedding photos and everyone asks where we got married because it was so beautiful! If you're looking for an intimate location with a breathtaking view making for a unique wedding, I highly recommend booking the Kingsville Lodge!

Livia and the team at Orchard Hills were professional, dynamic, had amazing input planning wise and were a wealth of knowledge. The time between engagement and our wedding was 10 months and it would have been so much more stressful without Livia. She was my rock and I never felt the need to worry with her in my corner. She's extremely dedicated and organized. The team itself day of is efficient and so, so kind. I loved having my wedding here, due to the staff and how beautiful the grounds are. Plenty of room to get ready for both the bridesmaids and groomsmen. Having our reception hall in the same location as the ceremony made life so easy. And in my opinion, this was so most gorgeous location for an outdoor wedding. I felt like a fairytale princess all day. No regrets at all, I highly recommend at least touring the location and meeting with Livia!

Hello! I'm Danny and I've wanted to be a filmmaker since I was seven years old. Wes Craven's "Scream" was the catalyst for having a camera in my hands. I have a need to tell stories that resonate with people and make them feel something. ​ I also happen to be a HUGE sap. I love filming weddings because I genuinely love seeing people at their absolute happiest. The opportunity to turn that happiness into art that couple's can look back on is so gratifying.

We went back and forth on whether or not we wanted videography of my wedding, but we are extremely happy we decided to and that Fullem Films is who we chose! Danny was so easy and fun to work with. Our results, and their professionalism and attention to detail exceeded our expectations! We are also a same sex couple so kindness, acceptance and being inclusive were requirements for us, and again our expectations wee exceeded! Overall, we highly recommend Fullem Films!!

The venue itself is beautiful, clean, and classy - perfect for a wedding. The chapel has gorgeous chandeliers, massive windows, and great natural light. Their staff was attentive and made sure everything ran smoothly on our big day. I cannot thank Julia enough. Without her, the whole wedding wouldn’t have been exactly what we dreamed of.

Paige went above and beyond throughout the entire process of our wedding. From the initial meeting to days prior to our big day, Paige was extremely helpful! She went above her photography duties by asking if we needed any snacks, helping solve the missing boutonnières problem, and even helping my disabled mom pick up desserts she dropped on the floor. Working with Paige was effortless and fun. We were able to fully relax and she guided us through posing and shots. Her moody photography style highlighted everything our big day was about. I am left with an amazing experience and stunning photos. Thank you Paige for making our big day so special!

Tropical Paradise in Geauga County! I kept telling my husband when we were looking into venues, "I want somewhere close to the water that's peaceful and I want it to feel like paradise, but I want to get married not too far from home". Most of our family is from the area, so we wanted somewhere that we didn't have to travel super far either. I had been looking for DAYS and everything was either way too far, way too expensive, ehhh, or just not at all what I was thinking. My husband hopped on Google, and said "Hey, how about this place called Shangri-La?" I looked at the pictures and I was like "Where is this place?!" He said "5 minutes from us". I could NOT believe it! It was GORGEOUS! The pictures are amazing but don't do it justice. I immediately reached out to Pam and Rod who own Shangri-La with interest. They said we could come and look at it that day if we wanted! My husband and I went and fell in LOVE! So so beautiful, and they have clearly spared no expense on making it so elegant, beautiful, convenient, affordable, and just magical. They were so amazing to work with. I knew when we parked and walked down the walkway even only seeing a small area of the location that was it. That was the place we were meant to be married at. Pam and Rod were so unbelievably amazing to work with. So caring, so organized, so attentive. They even offered us to set off fireworks at the end of our wedding (we got married on the 4th of July). It was truly the best day of our lives. I didn't worry about a thing, everything went smoothly, and they were just so great to work with! I will absolutely be returning to Shangri-La in the future as they can accommodate you for any kind of gathering you have in mind! They even went the extra mile; I was in a very bad car accident about 2 weeks after my husband and I got back from our honeymoon. I was in the hospital for a days and had broken my neck and had surgery on my knee that left me re-teaching myself to walk. Somehow, Pam and Rod had found out that I was in a car accident, and they stopped over at our house with the sweetest care package and card. It truly made me cry. They are such sweet and wonderful people. And we had such an amazing visit. Pam and Rod are just such unbelievably genuine people. You just feel like you're "home" when you're at Shangri-La. I cannot say enough about Shangri-La and Pam and Rod <3

Hello! My name is Katie and I am a wedding and family photographer based out of Elyria, OH and covering the greater Cleveland area. I began Oak Lane Studios in 2021 after deciding I wanted to share my lifelong passion for photography with my community.

It was a great pleasure to have worked with Katie. She not only created and baked our wedding cake that guests are still talking about, but she photographed our whole wedding day. I gave Katie my vision and she made it come to life; there wasn't a detail missed! Katie has an exceptional eye for detail and was able to capture each moment throughout the day so we can always look back and remember the best day ever! I would recommend Katie for any occasion, big or small, that you do not want to forget! She is professional, yet relatable, and extremely talented. We will absolutely use Oak Lane Studios in the future!

WE NO LONGER OFFER FRESH FLOWERS. We give brides their dream bouquets in silk or sola, & even work from “inspo pics”. We work with Brides to help bring their vision to life and stay on budget. Styles and shapes you want may change during the process. But for an initial quote, we need details like the number of bouquets that are needed and what styles are being considered. We limit our responses to those inquiries that include this info d/t paying per response. Thank you for understanding. We have designed a line called La Petite to help Brides with tight budgets or large wedding parties. Let’s chat about your wedding!

I absolutely loved working with Linda at Fleur Wedding Bouquets! She was so helpful during the design process, helping me refine my vision and my needs for the venues and wedding party. The flowers were finished far in advance of the wedding, which was a great stress relief. Everything was absolutely beautiful, and I couldn't be happier. And, best of all, I can keep them forever! Highly recommend!

My husband and I had an elopement style wedding and we’re kind of awkward when it comes to taking pictures. This was actually our first time having professional photos taken of us and it was better than expected! Kelly carries a warm, yet fun energy all while maintaining professionalism and is beyond talented. Our wedding photos are so amazing, every moment was captured beautifully. We will definitely be working with Kelly again in the future!

Her turn around time for getting our pictures back to us was so fast and the level of quality is unmatched. Everything we asked for she made happen and never once did I feel rushed or stressed out. Our wedding photos were so much better than we could have ever imagined. I highly recommend working with Rekira, she will exceed all of your expectations!

Established in 1969, the 50-acre parcel in Brunswick with nothing more than an old barn and a dream. The barn, originally built in 1869, became the foundation for a Ski Lodge, but would ultimately become the event center that it is today. Although many updates and renovations have taken place over the last 50 years the original barn remains intact, and its beams are still visible in the hall. Over the years Skyview Lodge has held countless events. The building was renovated again in 2001 to expand its capacity and continue building upon the success of the hall rentals. Skyview Lodge heads into its 3rd generation of family ownership & tradition with big plans on the horizon! We look forward to you becoming part of our rich history!

The venue itself is beautiful, we got so many compliments on the ceremony space and we did very minimal decoration.
