We could rave for days about our overall experience with Laura and the end product photographs and prints we received. Laura's experience and professionalism were demonstrated pre-wedding with effective communication and outlining of expectations. She provided excellent advice which ultimately made the day of go much smoother. At the wedding and reception, we were impressed by how unimposing Laura was while still being able to capture the moments most significant to us, as well as the ones we didn't even know would be the most important to us until we saw them. When the fire alarms went off unexpectedly, she took it in stride, creating the most of the moment by placing us near the fire trucks and capturing some of the best pictures of the night. We sincerely and strongly recommend Laura for wedding photography and continue to be so grateful!

BEST WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER IN THE GAME!!!! There is no need to keep searching for photographers. Siobhan is the best for any event! There are no words to describe how excellent Siobhan is, both with her work and as a person. Not only is she talented, organized, and professional, but she is also personable and made us feel like we have been friends for years. My husband and I first met Siobhan for our engagement shoot. We were nervous to be in front of the camera and worried we would look awkward. Siobhan made us feel so comfortable, and our pictures were AWESOME! My mom and sister also surprised me with Siobhan as my photographer for my bridal shower. Thank god they did! From detail shots to portraits with friends and family to all of the candid moments- Siobhan captured it all! Siobhan kept all lines of communication open as the wedding day approached. She had us fill out documents to update her on wedding details, family portraits, group pictures, and any “must-have” pictures we wanted to capture. Siobhan also shared a list of helpful suggestions and items to start putting together for detailed shots. She went above and beyond to put together a timeline of the day and helped put my mind at ease during the last few weeks of planning. Thank god we had Siobhan on the day of the wedding! We were married on a golf course, and the grounds manager told us we needed to wait to take pictures on the course because it would start pouring. Siobhan quickly took out her phone to look at the radar and insisted we go out on the golf course. Our pictures are beautiful— full of Sun and Smiles. No other photographer would have fought for us to get those pictures!!! She kept our bridal party in line and made sure we followed the exact timeline we had planned together. I did not have to worry about anything with her by my side. Siobhan sent us our edited “sneak peaks”… THE NEXT DAY!!! Our whole gallery was ready within one month of our wedding day. She captured everything! We are OBSESSED and couldn’t wait to share them with our families. We can’t recommend Siobhan enough! You NEED her as your photographer!

I am so glad that I chose Nina Renee Beauty for my wedding day. From the very beginning, Nina had so many ideas and was willing to answer all of my super specific questions. I am an admirer of makeup and hair, with little experience lol. I really just shared my vision with Nina and she let me know what I needed! They completely over delivered on quality of work and customer service!! I also highly recommend their hair extension rental. So easy and the extensions really amplified my hairstyle. By the way! My bridesmaids all felt that this was their favorite hair and makeup experience!

Capturing love in every color of the rainbow, Kristen Renee Photography is here to celebrate your unique story. From Albany to anywhere your love takes you, we specialize in documenting authentic moments for all couples and families.

It's hard to put in words how fantastic Kristen is! She is so talented, down to earth and the coolest person you will ever meet! I am also a photographer and I have second shot many times with her and her wife Sheridan! YAY! I love working with both because they are so professional first of all, and also it's so much fun! They have this vibe that creates this fun atmosphere to be around. I so enjoy working with them. Weddings can be stressful, even as a photographer but working with them, I have never been stressed or felt like we needed to rush. They are so easy to work with. Kristen and Sheridan are the best duo photographers there are! I love watching them work along side each other. Both have the greatest attitude and love their job. I also like that they schedule your day perfectly and they get to know you. Every time I work with them I'm amazed how connected they are with their couples. It's amazing to see. They photograph so many weddings, sometimes 3 in a weekend but yet they are connected with each and every couple. I have always looked up to Kristen and it's amazing seeing her grow and seeing all the beautiful work she has done for her couples. If you are looking for a photographer, (being a photographer myself) I recommend Kristen 100x and more if I could!! She will light up a room, ease your day if you are nervous, create beautiful images and just be present with you. :)

We have a strong eye for detail, and focus on really diving into a couples love and expressing their emotion for one another through our lens.

Awarded Best of Zola
I truly cannot put into words how amazing our entire experience was from start to finish. We found John and Avec L'Amour through our photographer, Heather Soucy. She told me that her family even used John for her brother's wedding because of everyone she has worked with, she trusted him to document their special day in the best way. That spoke volumes to me. When I say these two are a 'dream team' I am not kidding. As someone who had never been professionally photographed or video'd before, I was really nervous about looking and feeling awkward. John made my husband, Mike, and me feel SO comfortable throughout the whole day. It was so cool seeing these two incredibly creative minds feeding off each other to get the best possible shot. It was a little rainy on our day and they actually took video/photos of us inside a puddle reflection--I mean who thinks of that?! We were running a little late to the reception when our portraits were supposed to be taken and John knew we didn't want to miss too much of cocktail hour. We were able to get the most beautiful shots in just 30 minutes, including drone, which was super important to us. The Avec L'Amour team got absolutely stunning video without us feeling like we had cameras in our faces all night. We booked John for the 8-hour package, but realized we were not going to be able to get the bouquet toss or cake cutting in that time frame. NO worries!! John offered to stay an extra hour to capture the remainder of the evening. Now for the deliverables: we got our first teaser video back within 3 weeks of our day and I was absolutely blown away. We received the full gallery which included a 1 minute teaser, 3 minute trailer, and the full 1.5 hour long event not even a MONTH after our wedding day. It was just like watching a move of all our favorite people and he captured the day so perfectly. I cannot say enough: RUN, don't walk to book John and Avec L'Amour for your special day!! Worth every penny. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

That’s why I will try to answer the main question you all want to ask. Why me?

Valentinka was the wedding photographer for my city hall wedding. She took photos inside but the majority were spontaneous outdoor photos of my friend and us waking around downtown.

A wedding will not be complete in the absence of having beautifully arranged flowers. They do not only add color to the event, but they also signal the blossoming of a new life ahead of the couple. In the same way, flowers are important; it is also critical to choose the best Long Island florist to take care of the selection and arrangements. The florist has knowledge on the best wedding flowers New York to use, which will ensure making the right choice. Nonetheless, not all florists are the same in terms of the capabilities. To avoid ruining your wedding with bad flowers,

Jack & Rose Florist and Decorators did an amazing job with the flowers and decor for our wedding. Their communication throughout the planning process was always timely, kind, and clear - they responded quickly to emails and were very patient in answering all of my questions. The quality of their floral arrangements was just beautiful and thorough in every detail. They created gorgeous bouquets and boutonnieres for our wedding party that perfectly matched our color scheme. The memorial flowers placed in honor of our parents were crafted with care and looked lovely. The ceremony decor was simply stunning as well - they transformed our venue with floral arrangements and candles for a romantic ambiance that contributed so much warmth and beauty to our special day. We were thrilled with their services and would highly recommend Jack & Rose!

RS Moments 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Gardiner, NY

Our style is artistic and documentary, and can be described in three words; Sincere, Scenic, and Inspirational. Sincere, we will never ask you to act unnaturally in front of our camera; we will adjust to your personalities and photograph you as you are. Scenic, because we love beautiful landscapes and love to incorporate everyone in such environments. Inspirational, because there is always a new way or a new idea to capture a photo but in the end it's capturing that special moment.

RS Moments were the perfect wedding photographers for our special day. From the moment we first spoke with them, their communication style was considerate, kind, and unique. They truly understood the importance of capturing our day in a way that felt personal and special to us. Throughout the process, they were caring, understanding, and respectful, guiding us through different poses and angles to get the perfect shots. We loved how they incorporated unique elements like mirrors, umbrellas, and the beach to create beautiful, one-of-a-kind photos that perfectly complement our love. The results were absolutely stunning, and we are so grateful to have these memories preserved. We couldn't recommend RS Moments more highly!

Awarded Best of Zola
Brittany and her team were an absolute dream to work with. She was one of our most proffesional and detailed oriented vendors. After our initial call, Brittany sent over a gorgeous and detailed mock up. Her communication leading up to our Wedding (we hired Wylde Rose for Styling for our Hindu Ceremony) was excellent, checking in with us to see if we needed anything - which was a breath of fresh air chasing around most vendors. The team pulled out ALL stops to make our Wedding Rentals and styling look gorgeous. Our planner called Brittany with concerns from about the stage we had delivered and Brittany and team were ON IT to make everything gorgeous and execute our vision flawlessly! They had great ideas on the spot to help the concerns. I would reccomend Wylde Rose in a heartbeat to all Hudson Valley Brides that are looking for flawless details and a vendor you can put all your trust in.

Creek Water Blooms 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Serves Gardiner, NY

Creek Water Blooms specializes in fully customized wood flower floristry. All arrangements are made with soft realistic wood flowers and faux/preserved fillers to create floral arrangements that can you can enjoy forever. Every flower is handmade, painted and arranged to ensure your wedding flowers are exactly what you envisioned! There’s no waste from throwing away dead flowers and the wood flowers are made from an eco friendly material. Wood flowers also prevent allergy issues, scent sensitivity and wilting. They’re the perfect way to enjoy your flowers on your wedding day and every day after.

Jessica, the owner of Creek Water Blooms, is absolutely incredible! Starting the process, we didn’t have a clear vision for our flowers, but she asked all of the right questions and created a bouquet and boutonnière that are even more perfect than anything we could have come up with ourselves. She included us in every step along the way (sending pictures of flower samples, paint/dye tests, etc.) and made the process extremely easy and stress-free. We got so many compliments on our flowers from our vendors, wedding guests and complete strangers; they photograph beautifully, are light-weight and less fragile than natural flowers. Best of all, we get to keep our flowers for life without the cost and stress of preservation. If you’re looking for beautiful, customized, long-lasting flowers and you want to work with a professional who takes the stress out of planning, then we absolutely recommend Jessica at Creek Water Blooms.

T. L. Holloway 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Gardiner, NY

Wedding and event band based in New York’s Capital Region. We do cocktail jazz, wedding receptions, ceremony music and more. Today, jazz is a rarity, especially in its purist live form. This condition is a result of its limited availability, and the higher prevalence of rock bands in most areas. We at T. L. Holloway seek to alleviate this issue. As students of the jazz classics, we seek to provide authentic American jazz to venues and events all over the Northeastern United States.

Awarded Best of Zola
T.L. Holloway was the perfect band for our June garden wedding. Steve, John, Peter, and Dylan are fantastic people, extraordinary musicians, and organized planners. These four showed off their versatility and stamina by playing throughout our whole wedding day — from ceremony music with custom renditions of some of our favorite folk songs, through the cocktail hour and dinner with smooth jazz and Sinatra, and closing out the night with faster jazz mixed with classic American and contemporary tunes to keep everyone dancing. They graciously provided sound equipment for our outdoor ceremony, and Steve artfully handled wedding party introductions during the reception as well as various announcements. Throughout the night we noticed them checking their sound from various locations — that attention to detail and care typified our experience, from our first planning call until their last song. They made everything easy for us, were extremely generous with their time during planning, and their renditions of songs we selected were beyond what we imagined was possible. Our guests (and us!) were simply enamored! As lovers of jazz and classic American tunes (but not necessarily dancing), these guys had us and our guests dancing all night. They matched our style and energy level perfectly. We received countless guest compliments on their behalf, though the credit is all theirs. Whenever we think back on our wedding day, their music will always be a cherished part of it! We can’t recommend enough — or thank enough — T.L. Holloway.

Awarded Best of Zola
I initially had first hand experience with Jamaal's work while being in a good friend's wedding last year. A this wedding Jamaal was great. He paid attention to detail, was prompt and on time, didn't need to be told to capture certain moments, etc. When it came time for my big day, I knew I had the perfect person in mind. My wife and I decided to go the conservative route and have a small wedding w/ reception dinner at a restaurant. However, based on our wedding photo sneak peaks that Jamaal provided after; you would think it was a bigger wedding that what it actually was! Which is exactly what we wanted. He captured every moment perfect. My wife and I are happy to have worked with J. and hope to use him in the future for whatever occasion we have coming up next! Thank you again J!

The Barnstorm 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $15,000
  • Serves Gardiner, NY

The Barnstorm is an NYC-based party rock wedding band, best known for their electric and engaging dance party receptions. It's been said they're "not a real wedding band," but rather "an incredibly fun and engaging band that just happens to absolutely rock weddings!" Whether it's today's hits, top 40, hip hop, classic rock, Motown, and all things in between, The Barnstorm can do it all - putting their own spin on everything they do.

Awarded Best of Zola
Highly, highly recommend the Barnstorm for a wedding or any event. We hired them for our wedding the last weekend of September 2019 in Montauk, and they absolutely put the night over the top! First and foremost, they are a great band; not your typical “wedding band”. They aren’t cookie cutter (i.e. you won’t hear them playing the same songs that you hear at every wedding) and they certainly aren’t stiff. They vibe off each other and the room. They are legitimately having a fun time performing with each other and that permeates throughout the room. Everyone will be up dancing, singing, drinking, and sweating their butts off, and having a blast! What to expect: -Professionalism. Brooks responds promptly and covers all bases. No detail will be overlooked during the planning stages. Day of, they get to the venue well ahead of time to sound check and make sure everything is sounding perfect. During the event, they are great at providing direction and making sure everything runs smoothly. -Personalization and flexibility. The guys truly care about making the event as special as possible and are very open to any idea to bring the event over the top. In addition to our “special request” songs (which they nailed) the band was incredibly gracious at my request to join them onstage to “surprise” my wife and guests by playing a song along with them. It could not have gone over any better…my wife was thrilled and it absolutely brought the house down! -Party! They know what will get everyone up and moving. Their catalogue of songs is well over 200 and it includes all decades and genres. Multiple guests commented that they didn’t want to leave the dance floor to get dessert or go to the bathroom because every song was such an amazing jam. The Barnstorm is absolutely worth every penny. We knew they were the right band for our wedding the first moment we heard them at Hill Country, and we feel so lucky and grateful to the guys for playing our wedding. On top of it all, my wife, friends, and I get to continue to relive that night by seeing their gigs throughout NYC! We simply cannot say enough great things about The Barnstorm.
