My husband and I got married September 16th at St Clements. Let me just start off by saying, Collins goes above and beyond to make sure every detail is perfect.

Hazel & Spice Photography

  • Photographer

  • Serves Elmhurst, NY

When I first started wedding photography, I made a goal of being more than just the photographer on your big day. I made it my goal to be your friend, someone you can crack inside jokes with, and someone who isn't afraid to get down + have fun at the reception (while still doing her job). I made it my goal to capture more than just photos, but an experience. Whether it’s high in the mountains, on a beach near the ocean, in a forest meadow - you deserve to get married however you want to & I want to capture it for you.

L & L Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding day. Lexi, one of the photographers, was incredibly effective and charismatic in her communication style, making the experience fun and easy. She was patient in answering all our questions and ensuring every moment was captured beautifully. The quality of their work is truly top tier, and their services are very affordable, making them a tremendous value. Lexi rocked every single moment, seamlessly blending into the celebration and creating absolute magic with her moody, romantic photography style. I've worked with many photographers, and Lexi is now my go-to - I cannot recommend L & L Photography highly enough.

Rosehip Social Florist 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $150 per arrangement
  • Serves Elmhurst, NY

All of us here at Rosehip have been influenced by a lifelong love of nature and gardening, anything blooming and leaves of all types. We love what we do, and we love how flowers can bring so much joy and happiness to any space. Even something as simple as a small bud vase. We’ve been growing and working hard. Our lovely and amazingly hard working crew has been studying, building and even becoming arial scissor lift certified, so that we can hang greenery and flower installations from any ceiling and beam! True love of flowers and plants has led us to this life, and we can’t wait to share this passion with you! Come by, say hi!

Rosehip Social did my florals for my November 2024 wedding at the Wythe Hotel and WOW did they deliver! When I'd booked with them the year prior based on photos of their work I'd seen, I had just provided a general vibe and color scheme and trusted them to do their thing. A few weeks before the wedding I visited their shop for a table scape preview and we were able to go through specific flower types and colors and finalize some details. I ultimately ended up giving them some general guidances-- include yellows, oranges, and whites, not too fall-inspired, retro feel, tons of baby's breath-- and then let them do their thing. We ended up including a full floral ceiling installation which made the space feel magical. Everything from our bouquets to boutineers, to table scapes were expertly crafted and could've been from the fanciest celebrity wedding out there. The team was collaborative and helpful around making my budget stretch, moving pieces around the venue at different times of the night, and working with the venue's install team. Lauren and Pola from Rosehip are complete professionals and worth the premium if you want the most gorgeous florals in town. I will 100% be recommending Rosehip to friends and would book them again in a heartbeat!

I am the kind of person who tends to worry more about our guest's experience than I do my own- I want everyone to have a memorable experience and to genuinely enjoy themselves! Our wedding day is not the time to sacrifice our own experience, however, and it is because of Christina that we didn't carry a single ounce of worry with us that day.

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

Jarrod did an amazing job on our wedding day! We were so very grateful to have him there with us. He was absolutely amazing and did a great job collaborating with our other vendors and coordinating logistics and timing of what we wanted to have done. We were so happy that we got videography done for our big day- feels like we’re reliving it each time we watch it! Highly recommend and very worth it!!!

I began my career a decade ago. As a tour photographer, I began accompanying musicians all over the world. Little did I know at that point the low lights, high energy, and late nights would translate well into my career as a wedding photographer. My start as a music photographer gave me the confidence to navigate even the most challenging and unpredictable situations, and I use the same philosophy now while photographing weddings: keep calm, stay observant, and follow the action.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so thrilled that we managed to book Jess for our engagement photos and wedding! Beautiful photography was a priority for us, and we wanted our photos to have a genuine, documentary style feel. We wanted the photos to capture the real beauty of the day, without being too heavily edited (we hate the photographers who made everything look pastel!). Jessica was completely in line with our style. My husband and I aren’t naturals in front of the camera, but Jessica made us feel so at ease. We were never uncomfortable with Jessica, and she felt like a natural part of the day. Jessica’s photos speak for themselves. She is able to create stunning visuals, but most impressively, Jess captures emotion in all of her photographs. At our wedding, Jessica and her assistant Kat were always present, but never intrusive. I feel like she is a photography ninja—I don’t even remember seeing her at certain moments, and yet there are beautiful photos of everything. No detail or moment was missed. From the day we worked with Jess on our engagement photos, we knew we were in more than capable hands. I am so impressed with Jessica’s ability to find unique spaces and framing for our photos—some of my favorite photos are in front of everyday places, but with Jessica’s eye they are turned into beautiful works of art. Because she did such a fantastic job with our engagement photos, we had no worries at all on our wedding day. One of Jess’ strengths is her background working as a photographer on music tours. Put her in any type of lighting or setting, and she has the technical skills and experience to create something amazing. I would be remiss if I didn’t mention Jess’ professionalism—she is always early and is kind to everyone she interacts with. She is so passionate and excited about her work. Her calm, unflappable attitude made her a pleasure to be around on our wedding day. Her enthusiasm for her work is evident. She's also incredibly hardworking at every stage of the process. Jessica was able to edit our photos and got them back to us within 6 days of our wedding—that is unheard of! We love Jess and are so impressed by her! She is beyond talented and her stunning work will let us relive our wedding day whenever we want. All of our photos were fantastic—it’s hard to narrow down even our top 100 photos. We can’t thank Jess enough for capturing the joy we felt on our wedding day. I’m truly sad that our time working together is over. Jess was easily one of our favorite vendors, and we wish her all the best as she continues to grow her business! We would enthusiastically recommend that you hire Jessica for all your photography needs. Update-- My husband and I were lucky to hire Jessica again about a year after our wedding to shoot some photos of us and our new puppy. As expected, the photos came out beautifully and were delivered to us quickly!

  • Serves Elmhurst, NY

Meaghan here - I’m the one from which you’ll hear a lot of “Fuck yeah!!!” and “You guys look so hot!” My inspiration comes from our lord and savior, Janis Joplin, and my style is free movement and honesty. Howdy! I'm Brendon, a quiet Mid-Westerner turned East-Coast loud-mouth who happens to have a knack for photography, editing, graphic illustration, and all things creative. My background comes from shooting fashion shows and exclusive events for BFA.com around NYC, which made me appreciate the avant-garde.

We had a terrific experience working with Meaghan and Brendon of “Far Out Feeling.” If you’ve made it this far, you already love their style – their ability to capture both candid and staged photos artfully – and we are happy to report that the photographers have personalities to match. We loved meeting them for drinks months in advance of our wedding, which gave us a nice context for one another when the day finally came (we cannot imagine, now, not knowing our wedding photographers when they arrived to take pictures of us!) We perhaps didn’t consider how crucial this feeling of comfort was, but when you think about, you do spend a tremendous portion of your wedding day with your photographers. Meaghan and Brendon felt like friends, which made even the parts of the wedding that we don’t like (posing!) feel easy, natural, and fun. Meaghan and Brendon were incredibly responsive, from first to last. They always got back to us the day we had a question, and even weeks after our wedding, they were responding to our technical difficulties within minutes. And the photos themselves turned out great! Again, you’ve probably seen evidence of this already. We cannot wait to print them, frame them, and, in all likelihood, post them relentlessly to our Instagram stories. A huge thank you to Meaghan and Brendon, who we recommend whole-heartedly.

Our dedicated team forms strong connections both inside our organization and with our clients, and these connections define us. Together, we bring restaurant-quality outside of restaurants, serving everything from intimate weddings to non-profit galas. We’ve built a culinary group that does what restaurants always have: get people talking—and daydreaming—about food, long after their last bite.

When we signed on with Constellation to cater our wedding, we had high expectations based on their stellar reputation alone, and they far exceeded our expectations on every level. During the year-long planning process, Brittany and her team were wonderful to work with; they were responsive from start to finish and very accomodating of our requests to ensure everything matched our vision from rentals to service to food. We had a backyard wedding so food service was anything but standard. They were flexible and nimble enough to service out of a barn (!) and a garage and somehow pulled it all off without a hitch. And, of course, the food was incredible. The cocktail hour spread with passed hors d'oeuvres and stations was a showstopper and I'm still dreaming about (and trying to emulate) our beautiful dual entree. Thank you to Brittany and the entire Constellation team for helping to make our wedding day perfect!

DM Events planned our 200-person black tie wedding at Brooklyn Botanic Garden this fall. From the moment I first spoke to Dawn Goldsmith, I felt at ease. She is a true visionary and a powerhouse. Dawn kept not just me, but my husband, our families and our budget(!!), on track from our very first phone call to the end of the wedding night. She and her team are kind, thoughtful, sensitive to their clients’ preferences, and extremely responsive. Putting aside all of the variable twists and turns that came with the era of COVID-weddings (which were navigated with ease), Dawn designed and planned an absolutely picture perfect event that exceeded all expectations. She has impeccable taste and a way of articulating and evolving my vision better than I could. Her design-minded approach is something that was really important to me when selecting a planner – no detail too small! Regarding the day of, Dawn’s team is a well-oiled machine.

Literally, the perfect day. Dawn Goldsmith is a total pro and a blessing to work with.

Kate desired to help couples cultivate weddings that truly reflected them and not just what bridal magazines, their future mother-in-law or high school frenemy said they just HAD to do. The literal and financial waste she witnessed going into weddings because of something “someone” said the couple HAD to have made Kate feel incredibly uncomfortable.

She knew exactly what I was looking for, even when I had trouble describing it! She added very subtle, yet beautiful details to my makeup which looked amazing in person and in pictures. She was very thoughtful about the look I was hoping for and made sure that everything from my lips to eye brows were perfect right up until I walked down the aisle (and after)! She did my makeup for my rehearsal dinner as well, and gave me a totally different, yet beautiful look. She also did the make up for my whole family on my wedding day. She was patient, responsive and intuitive. Everyone in my family had different looks that matched their style, dresses and wants. Most importantly, she is an amazing person to work with. I look forward to having her do my makeup, eyebrows and hair for every special occasional I have.

Elana did an amazing job photographing our wedding!! She took so many great photos and really captured our day so beautifully! The turnaround time to get the photos was quick, especially considering the volume of photos we received. She was also very flexible with our location changes that were required due to the pandemic. I highly recommend Elana Goodridge Photography for any event! Thank you so much, Elana. Your work will be in our home for years to come. :)

Mikkel Paige Photography doesn't simply take photos - she creates them. She'll laugh and joke with you to get those smiles going to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera so you’re free to be yourselves. Her vibrant photos resonate with couples who gravitate towards color and the details. Mikkel is an avid traveler and will go any distance to capture love and work with fun-loving couples, from the Caribbean, to California, Walt Disney World, Norway and beyond.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I cannot applaud Mikkel enough for being such a superstar photographer! She is truly a professional with a bubbly, upbeat attitude and she possesses the rare ability to make you feel like the most important person in the world when she speaks to you. Not only did she remember our wedding day details, but also she made an attempt (successfully) to remember all the names of our family members and friends. My husband and I were also blown away by her amazing talent of being in five places at once on our wedding day. Mikkel captured absolutely gorgeous photos that look bright and natural--exactly what we wanted! It is impossible to pick a handful of favorites from her gallery because they are all gorgeous. We cannot thank her enough for her positivity, professionalism, and eye for what we wanted to remember. You have found your photographer here- look no further :)

Chaz Cruz specializes in editorial portraiture and weddings. His style and humor brings out unique characteristics in his subjects which turn the photograph into something unique. Always looking at new ways to use found and created light, he enjoys producing new photographs that otherwise would not be encountered.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were looking for a bright, editorial look for our wedding photography, and fell in love with the images we had seen from Chaz Cruz. 

Chaz was incredibly easy to work with - always so prompt in his replies, happy to answer questions, and had an amazingly detailed questionaire for us to fill out ahead of the wedding so that both he and his team knew exactly what we were after. The timeline he provided was also perfect, and left us knowing that our day would go smoothly! Although Chaz himself was not available to shoot our day, we won the lottery when we hired his associate, Celeste. Not only is she a true artist (we just received our huge sneak peek and every image is amazing) but she brought us so much joy. She was so much fun to be around all day, directed our family with such ease, charm, and efficiency during family portraits (what a gift), and was the perfect ‘fly on the wall’ when she needed to be. She is so skilled at capturing not just beautiful portraits, but incredible candid moments. We feel so lucky to have been able to work with both Chaz and Celeste for our wedding at the Wythe and can’t recommend them enough!

Philip Sammut’s passion for floral design and creative expertise are the guiding forces behind the success of Pedestals Floral Decorators. His team of trained, creative and insured designers sets Pedestals apart from the rest. The floral design studio and special events company, located in Garden City Park has been creating imaginative and elegant floral arrangements for sophisticated and demanding clientele for over twenty years. Always keeping up with the latest trends and fashions, keeps Pedestals in the forefront of the industry.

We cannot ever thank Pedestals enough for how beautiful everything turned out for our wedding. Everyone could not stop complimenting the floral arrangements!! It was perfect from bouquets to each centerpiece and our arch. I came to Sandy without a true vision of florals and had no idea what I was doing. She turned my mismatched thoughts into perfection and a dream come true. I had the centerpieces repurposed into bouquets for guests to take home & everyone absolutely loved that they were able to take some of the gorgeous flowers home with them. It was beautiful and perfect but it would not have been that way without our florals from Pedestals!! 2 weeks later and people are STILL telling us they were the most beautiful florals at a wedding!!! You will not be disappointed!

Makeup is a passion and listening and understanding my clients needs are something that I take a lot of pride in. Making them feel beautiful and confident on one of most important days of their lives is truly an honor.

I had my makeup done with Rosy from faith & beauty and I have to say, it was a relaxing experience! I loved how professional, organized and clean she was throughout the entire process as someone who does not wear makeup often. I appreciated all the information and step by step she took with applying certain products and her explanations to why my skin needed it! Rosy knows what she is doing and I would recommend her for any beauty/skincare service.

I wish I had my parents' wedding day captured on film. I would have loved to see how they interacted with each other on the day they celebrated their union. How nervous with excitement they were when they spoke their vows; how they arrived to the church; the look on my grandfather's face as he walked my mother down the aisle. ​ Moments such as these are valuable family histories because as generations move along, memories of past events evaporate. This is why wedding films are important and why I love creating them.

Awarded Best of Zola
Valerie is incredible to work with. We have had the pleasure of working together many times on weddings. As wedding photographers we appreciate other wedding vendors that are mindful of the space we have to perform our craft. Valerie is never obtrusive. She always has a game plan and works together with us so we are not in each others space. Her presence is very calming. She is organized and extremely professional. We love her as a wedding peer and admire her talent. After so many years crossing paths and working together we are happy to call her a friend too.

Dawn has been producing creative events in New York and California for over 15 years. You’ll most often catch this bi-coastal party maker biking around Greenpoint, BK or in her home state of California loading up on burritos and baseball games.

As a photographer who has documented over 300 weddings, I have worked with my fair share of planners - and there is nobody I get more excited to work with than Dawn and her extraordinary team. Not only does she do a SPECTACULAR job creating fun, interesting, and cool custom designs while also managing all of her clients’ needs, she also is so on top of managing all her fellow vendors respectfully and effectively. She has always been the best in Brooklyn (that’s why she is on almost every preferred vendor list in town!!!) and now that she is bicoastal in LA, too, she gets to expand her absolutely amazing business - but also that means you should book her ASAP before somebody else nabs her.

Clean Plate Pictures began when Erica Beckman left her fancy Photo Editor job at The Wall Street Journal to photograph happy couples full-time - guess what? Weddings are way more fun. Erica earned her degree in photography and uses her twenty years of experience in the industry to bring exacting editorial standards and creative excellence to all her work. Her documentary style captures genuine emotions and artfully records events as they unfold organically.

From the moment we booked Clean Plate Pictures, we were impressed with their communication and responsiveness. Erica was always open to our suggestions and worked closely with us to ensure they captured our day perfectly. Her impeccable attention to detail and great eye for the perfect shot were evident in every photo. She was able to herd our many relatives to make the family shoot less stressful, and even made the slightly janky Hyatt Place look elegant in the getting-ready photos. Erica was so friendly and had a strong expertise on the best shots for our venue. We were thrilled that Erica was willing to travel to New York City to shoot our engagement photos as well. We absolutely loved working with Erica (and Elle the second shoot, a dream!) and would highly recommend Clean Plate Pictures to any couple looking for professional, talented, and personable wedding photographers.
