Elyria, OH
  • Beauty professional
  • Starts at $100

Congratulations on your engagement! I am so excited to work with you! I am Emily, the artist here at Emily Adele Makeup! I have been doing makeup for over 5 years and LOVE getting to be a part of such a special day in your life. Makeup is such a passion of mine. I love getting to create the perfect look for any occasion!

I have been lucky enough to have Emily do my makeup for multiple weddings the past few years. Compared to any other makeup I have ever had done, Emily’s work is by far the best. I gave her direction that I would like a natural/pretty look that still made me feel like myself and she did exactly that. I wish she could do my makeup everyday! She is also very calming and pleasant to be around and made it a great experience. I highly recommend her to everyone.

My husband and I stumbled upon David Paul photography about 2 years ago. We saw some of his pictures online and we decided to give him a call. He drove an hour to meet with us and show us his portfolio. He was kind and his work was outstanding. We didn’t really need to meet with any other photographers. We knew he was going to be the one we used! He shot our engagement photos and they turned out spectacular. He was so quick to getting us our edited photos and during the shoot his creativity was great. David also shot a boudoir shoot for me so that I could give my husband a wedding gift. A lot of women may be hesitant to have a man shoot their boudoir but David was extremely professional and never made me feel uncomfortable. The day of our wedding, he was so flexible and made sure to get all of the pictures that we had requested. My husband and I just got married 2 days ago and we already have 30 edited images. I will share some below. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. His creativity, professionalism, thoroughness, attention to detail, and his personality are so wonderful. Thank you so much David for being a part of our special day!

Merkels Floral Studio 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $10,000
  • Serves Elyria, 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 :)

Awarded Best of Zola
When I first got engaged I knew immediately that I wanted Kristin and her team at Merkels to be our florist. Kristin's attention to detail, willingness to try anything, and overall easy-going personality made the entire planning process with her so smooth. When we sat down to discuss the vision I had for my wedding I told her I was thinking blues, purples, whites, and I wanted the entire place to give off a coastal Italian vibe - which I was positive made no sense, but Kristin was the biggest yes-woman. She immediately understood what I wanted and was so helpful when sitting down to discuss what I was thinking for the wedding. On top of this, she was incredibly conscious of our budget and worked with me to make sure I got everything I wanted within my price range! Another thing I never got to compliment on was her memory & attention to details; I had asked for Dahlias and Peonies in my bouquet if possible - knowing it was probably not going to happen as they weren't in season ... BUT SHE GOT THEM which I did not expect at all. From our altar and signage, to the centerpieces and bouquets, Kristin and her team exceeded my expectations by 1000%. I would not change a single thing. Kristin, we love you so much, and cannot thank you enough!

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.

Skinnyboy Media 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Serves Elyria, OH

DJ Stiles, aka SkinnyBoy Media, has been serving the couples and corporate clients of NorthEastern Ohio since 2014. With hundreds of weddings, parties and corporate events, SkinnyBoy Media has the knowledge, the equipment, and the look to take your event to the next level!

Tyson and Sam at Skinny Boy Media were one of my favorite vendors at my wedding. It is so so hard to choose a DJ because you've been to other weddings and had trauma from terrible DJ's that play the same old songs that are awful. Or they don't announce things at the right time or just don't communicate. This was my fear. I was recommended Skinny Boy Media from my photographer in Cincy. Then I noticed he was in Cleveland and I am located in South Central Ohio (where there are no good DJ's). I was so nervous that I was going to have a massive upcharge due to travelling 4.5 hours. I reached out and got a quote from him and discussed the type of wedding I wanted with the music and flow of things. He communicated amazing right from the start and was transparent in pricing and had no problem whatsoever travelling to Southern Ohio/Northern KY. Whew! Then I dragged my feet because this is a large decision. The website of DJ's are hard to tell what they are like. It's not like you can go to a wedding they are at and see if you like it, haha! But then as I looked on a Facebook group of Ohio Bride's to Be I noticed his name kept getting referenced. Which was a good hint. Then I talked to him further about uplighting and Photobooth services for the night. I kept delaying again... Then he reached out to me again telling me someone else wanted my date (July 8) if I didn't want it. That sealed the deal and I paid the deposit online. My husband and I completed a detailed form he provided on Google Docs to say what songs we wanted during what time. And what songs we did not want! We had a video chat with him describing ourselves, the vibe we wanted for our wedding, etc. We are 28yrs and wanted a middle school dance party vibe. I also didn't want songs switched every other minute, but transitioned nicely with reading the crowd. I also asked for some Disney songs during dinner. Man did he deliver!!! It was a party!! And he politely communicated with me during the night, asking if I was ready to begin the dances, the speeches, let dinner tables go to the buffet, etc. We also added a game from 4H camp called Bring-Me and he had it organized on his iPad, let my sister run the game on the mic, etc. The photo booth also sent photos to each person and I got a google drive link to all of them. I chose the Ivy wall with props. I did not choose to have a glow light in the photo background, but that is an option. The 30 uplights literally pulled everything together in the long room! (70ft x 30ft). He was on time, stayed till the end as expected. He also helped create a super special memory for my husband and I that I didn't even plan for! At the end (11:30pm) he had everyone go outside or towards the end of the building and he played "At Last" with just my husband and I. It was so perfect to end the night. If you made it this far...I hope I've convinced you to HIRE SKINNY BOY MEDIA!!! He will communicate like you want, provide a clear contract, provide uplights & a photo booth, travel to your venue without complications, keep things running smooth and does a great job!!

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!!!

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!

If you are stuck between wanting a classic, old fashioned and a modern, sleek wedding, you can have BOTH at Sun Valley! The completely renovated inside mixed with the charming covered patio and pond outside creates the perfect blend; let's not forget that it sits on 25 acres of land in a very secluded area. This truly is a hidden gem! I never knew SV existed until my fiancé (now husband) and I decided to change our wedding venue TWO months before the big day (Covid-19 played a major role in that). I can honestly say that changing our venue was the best decision we made! Not only did Jennifer accommodate our wedding date but she worked with us up until the very day to make sure everything was just how we had envisioned it to be (we were also very fortunate to be the FIRST wedding under the ownership of Jennifer, Melissa and Scott)! When I walked into SV on my wedding day, I was blown away at how spot on every little detail was. Everything from the entrance table to the layout of the guest tables to the décor was exactly how I wanted it. I love that SV gave me access to their online seating chart so I could do my own layout and make changes up until a couple days before the wedding. Jennifer had very minimal questions for me the week of which is crucial because, as a bride, the week of the wedding is very overwhelming; the last thing you need to worry about is your setup at the venue. SV also provides a spacious bridal suite with a code generated lock where you and your bridal party can store all of your belongings throughout the night. Let's also not forget about the mirrors in the suite that light up at the touch of your finger; I wish I'd spent more time in there but, as everyone always says, the night flies by - and they are right! Another benefit of having your wedding at SV is that the grounds and pond make for beautiful photos! Some of my best photos were captured right next to the pond under a beautiful tree. While having photos taken, it was so refreshing to look over and see our guests fully enjoying cocktail hour that was setup outside with an open bar and delicious appetizers provided by Flour. If you are able to, splurge and rent some colorful linen from Event Source and hire an acoustic musician to play during cocktail hour. It really makes for a magical evening for your friends and family. I cannot tell you how many people commented on how SV was the most beautiful venue they'd ever been to. I couldn't agree more and I can't believe I almost didn't get married there! I really could not have pictured having my wedding anywhere else. If you are stuck between a few venues, do yourself a favor and just go with Sun Valley! Between Jennifer (wedding planner), Melissa (photographer) & Scott (DJ), you are working with three seasoned industry professionals who know how to put on a party! You will not regret your decision!

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. My husband and I have talked about the day over and over again. Nothing could’ve been better. For the quality of the venue and service, Whitehall Columbia offered insane value. Really could not be any better. We would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a venue that has it all.

The ceremony was supposed to be outside and it called for rain (and boy did it rain lol!) Livia set up the outside just incase there was a chance it could've been outside. To me that was her going above and beyond. The whole day was a dream come true. If you book your wedding or event here you will not regret it!

Imagine this: You step onto plush grass that feels cool to the touch under your bare feet. The wind is blowing gently off what appears to be an endless body of water that stretches to the horizon. You walk past the white, sandy beach where a bon fire is burning and hear laughter as friends share drinks and stories. The twinkling lights, music, and dancing beckons you towards a tiki bar where a bartender is serving up fizzy drinks and fun cocktails. You stop. You soak in this moment. You smile as you run towards the dance floor and realize: this is my wedding day.

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

I am not a colleague or friend of Ella Rose Photography (although it would be an honor to be friends with Michelle.) I am writing this review as a client. I fell in love with her style of photography a few years ago and booked her for my family's fall photos. Upon receiving my photo gallery I almost cried at how beautiful they were. That was when we were a family of five. Now we are a family of six, and have only gone back to Michelle for our photos. Not only is she kind and patient with my four children, but she has a way of capturing each one of their personalities with her lens and freezing that moment of time at their specific age that I can hold onto forever. You can definitely tell she's a mama. I would highly recommend (and have many times) Ella Rose Photography. Your photos will not just look like annual family photos on your wall, rather like fine art that will stand out amongst other family/wedding/etc. photos.

I am a wedding and elopement photographer based out of northeast Ohio, but I am down to go wherever the love flows! I love capturing the moments during the wedding day that most couples wouldn't expect to find in their galleries, those moments that you don't even realize are happening around you. I want my couples to be instantly transported into the emotion of their wedding day everything they look through their galleries and albums.

The quality of her work was amazing - the photos are beautiful, creative, and truly captured all the most important moments.

We got married in 2021 when all the craziness was still going on. Peggy worked with us through the whole process. She was very detailed in explaining everything and was a pleasure to work with. The cake was delicious and beautiful! All our guests loved the cake and everything about it. There wasn't one piece left by the end of the evening. I highly recommend and will use Peggy again for future events.

Sugar Lake Lodge is a 135 acre estate with a seven acre private lake surrounded by Lake County Metro Parks. It features a gorgeous 6,700 square foot lodge & event center with an 1,800 square ft. private suite fully equipped with kitchen, fire place, and elegant bathroom all with a slight rustic feel. There is also a steam room for guests to unwind and enjoy. In addition, there is a lakefront event center with dual inside and outside fireplaces, and accommodations. For a more remote and primitive experience, there are secluded cabins complete with bathrooms and a pavilion with cooking grills sinks and fire pits amidst beautiful hiking and horseback riding trails.

We literally had the wedding of our dreams at Sugar Lake, and I never thought it would have been possible. My vision came to life because of Nadine and her team with Jess and Cailin. Cailin took amazing care of our dogs for the day and it was amazing we could have them there and incorporated in the ceremony. I want to relive my wedding day over and over, and we got so many compliments about the venue and how smooth everything went. Truly the best wedding ever

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!

Hi, I’m Rekira, a photographer based in Northeast Ohio, with over 14 years of capturing love stories. My passion lies in documenting the most precious moments of my clients’ lives. Every wedding I photograph is a unique journey, and I feel incredibly privileged to be entrusted with such meaningful occasions—from intimate elopements to grand celebrations. Whether you’re planning a dream destination wedding or a beautiful celebration here in Ohio, I’m dedicated to bringing your vision to life, ensuring each moment is beautifully preserved for generations to come. Let’s create something extraordinary together, wherever your love takes us.

Working with Rekira is always an amazing experience! She has done multiple sessions for my husband and I and every single time I am blown away by the pictures she captures, her ability to make us feel comfortable (we are not naturally good at taking photos) and her professionalism. 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!

  • Up to 200 guests

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!

Skyview was the perfect venue for our wedding! We loved that we could bring our own catering and that the alcohol was provided. The bar packages are awesome. Jordan and Donna were so helpful from the beginning. Easy to work with, kind and very communicative whenever I had questions. The venue itself is beautiful, we got so many compliments on the ceremony space and we did very minimal decoration.

Hello my name is Cooper Flora and I am a rising wedding videographer! I have been doing professional videography for over a year now and I absolutely love delivering high quality films that convey emotional storytelling. I am a student at Kent State and I am trying to do more and more wedding videos until I am able to do it full time!

We were THRILLED with the product Cooper crafted for us to capture our special day. He managed to document the most intimate parts of both our ceremony and reception without us even knowing he was there. His eye for detail and knack for perfection were just what we needed to create a timeless keepsake that'd allow us to relive our wedding for years to come. He was easy to work with, friendly, communicative, and professional. Making the decision to work with him will be one of your best in the beast of a process that is wedding planning!
