WOW, SPECTACULAR, AMAZING, FANTASTIC…These are all words we would use to describe Chris and all of Limitless Entertainment. We had the pleasure of booking Chris for our wedding during his busy schedule and we could not have made a better choice. He made sure we had everything we wanted and more! From providing music for our ceremony, reception, and after party, to all the amazing details including dancing on the clouds, cold sparklers, CO2 gun (my favorite), handouts, all kinds of lighting that really set the scene, as well as Photo Booth for our guests to help us capture the evening! He was a one stop shop which made it incredibly easy to work with only one vendor for all of our entertainment needs. He ensured all of our music was exactly what we wanted and did a fantastic job MC’ing the evening. He is incredibly personable and has a fantastic “whatever you need” attitude which ensured our day was as perfect as could be! I cannot recommend him enough for all your DJ/Entertainment needs!

I am small business florist who loves creating the most perfect florals for a couples most special day. I really believe that flowers can bring so much joy, they can celebrate cultures, represent life and passion, and even remember and honor loved ones. Whether it is a single rose, or a full wildflower garden, I think there are flowers for every type of person!

Awarded Best of Zola
Laura was such a pleasure to work with! She was very responsive and delivered our vision better than I even imagined it. She wrote a card with each flower’s meaning which was very thoughtful, along with including my late mom’s favorite flowers in my bouquet (she took time to find them because they weren’t in season & hard to find!). Her style of florals is very natural and wild, which is exactly what I wanted. Will use her again for any special occasion for sure!

Your wedding day deserves nothing less than magic, and that's exactly what I bring to the table! Couples who've chosen DJ Maxx Saint describe his energy as electric, the transitions as seamless, and the memories as unforgettable. From the tears of joy during your first dance to the uncontainable energy of a packed dance floor, I specialize in creating moments that your family and friends will rave about long after the last song ends. Let’s make your celebration a once-in-a-lifetime experience that’s as unique as your love story!

We are so glad we went with DJ Maxx for our wedding! We were looking for someone who would be able to cater to all of our needs (English and Spanish playlists) but who didn't bring a 'club promoter' vibe to the function! We found that and more in DJ Maxx! The dry ice and party lights made the night so fun! Everyone's told us how much fun they had at our wedding and how nice it was to be able to discreetly (lol) make song requests! Definitely recommend!

Hello, I'm Margaret. It's so nice to have you. I love to see love & take pictures. Perfect match to be an engagement and wedding photographer. I'm a lover of fine art and candid moments. My editing style is filled with true color photography to bring your photos to life.

Awarded Best of Zola
I seriously can’t put into words how amazing she was and cannot recommend her enough. She was great to have around on our wedding day and I am so happy with our photos. The groomsmen didn't have their act together, even though she provides a detailed schedule, and she was totally chill about it and was like no biggie I'll be back in 30. My fiancé commented on how awesome she was (didn't comment on any other vendors) and one of his groomsmen did too (see first pic). This was before we even saw the pics and they turned out better than I could have imagined. At one point I told her I was done taking pics I wanted to go talked to people and dance, so was a little worried if we got enough shots, but was blown away with the results. I also told her I didn't care that much about getting ready pics but wanted a lot of guest candids and she delivered. She also got way more getting ready pics than I even expected. We didn't want to spend money on a second photographer and she was fine with that and got all the pics we wanted on her own. She truly listened to what we wanted and was incredible at communication and organization. On top of that, she is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met, and truly a calming presence during all of the chaos on wedding day. I feel sooo lucky we found her.

Her warm and friendly personality made us feel completely at ease, and we loved how seamlessly she blended into the day. So many of our guests have complimented us on how wonderful she was and how stunning the photos turned out.

I’m a drummer, a mother of two amazing kids, and a proud owner of an 80lb Samoyed. My passion for photography is deeply influenced by my family legacy—my grandmother was a dedicated full-time photographer who spent her life capturing and hand-coloring her own images. Growing up immersed in her art has profoundly shaped my own approach to photography. As a photographer, I'd love to capture the journey of two people in love, telling the genuine and touching story of their life together. I strive to create images that convey heartfelt narratives and reflect the true essence of your relationship and the moments you share.

We had the absolute best time with Momo! We booked her for our wedding in May and did our engagement shoot the other day. Momo is an incredibly professional, talented, and kind individual. From the moment we started the shoot she was fully focused on us and capturing our best moments. She guided us through as this was the first time my fiancé and I were ever professionally photographed, and there was no awkward period, we instantly felt comfortable in front of her camera. We ended up having a rainy day and said let’s do it anyway, and had a great time. We got our photos back and WOW! They are better than we could have ever imagined! Momo took our vision and went above and beyond to make it a reality. Our photos feel like she captured intimate moments of our lives, in a cinematic and romantic way. And we got SO MANY GOOD ONES! We have to pick one for save the dates and it is just so difficult. If you’re looking for a photographer that truly cares to capture your vision, Momo Shot Photography will deliver.

Picky sometimes to a fault we realize every couple is not our couple and do not just book couples just to fill the calendar. Thats not fair to either of us. At the end of any event we usually are good friends and miss talking to each other. You wouldn't have it any other way.

When I was a little girl, my favorite part about making the trip to Argentina to visit my grandparents, was rummaging through their old boxes of prints on a rainy day and just imagining life through those photos. I think that's what started my passion for photography. Knowing that a photo can have such an impact on a child, someone who hasn't even met you yet, makes taking them all the more meaningful. I am passionate about making meaningful images for others because I know how important those photos will be in the future.

Awarded Best of Zola
Carolina is in a league of her own. We initially came across her art while looking on Instagram for photographers for our wedding say. We were instantly drawn to her particular style and documentary approach. We wanted something that felt unique and still accessible and that would capture the story of the day and the emotions of the moment. Her service was exemplary. We began with an engagement shoot which she uses to get a vibe of us and what we're looking for. We ended up using these photos hor our save the date, and later the shots taken on the day for our thank yous. She has a very easy going style and makes you feel comfortable and forget that you're on a photoshoot. Her website and communications are incredibly easy to use and navigate and she's so thoughtful with surprise and delight moments along the whole journey. She was easily our favorite vendor to interact with. She always took the time to listen to any of our thoughts or answer questions. She worked with a second photographer and assistant on the day who were both lovely and attentive. Despite never having been to our venue, and having a jam packed schedule she jumped right in and worked confidently in the space. Again we forgot we were being photographed and just enjoyed the day. Delighted with the outcome. We're excited to continue working with Carolina and bring some optical cohesion to our lives!

I created Dear Heart Film + Portraits in college when I realized just how much I love photographing other people. It started with fun-loving seniors and now has developed into capturing adventurous couples who are so unashamedly in love.

From the moment we first reached out to Shelby, we were impressed by her supportive and always available communication style. Her stunning, warm, and intentional work captured the spirit of our special day perfectly. She helped navigate the stress by creating a very detailed timeline and provided some much-needed calm amongst the chaos. Throughout it all, she supported us through the stress and anxiety, knew our entire party by name, and honored our unique vision for our wedding day. We are thrilled with the results and couldn't recommend Shelby and Dear Heart Film Portraits more highly!!!

Dan created a wedding video for my husband and I that we can look back on for years to come. Dan truly captured the feel of our wedding ceremony on the beach. He harmonized the ceremony with an artistic vision. Dan had a consultation with my fiancé and I prior to the wedding to a get to know what style we would like for the video. The result was spot on and brought myself and several of the people I showed the video to tears of happiness. The song that Dan chose went perfectly with each scene of the ceremony, as if he was telling our story through the video.

I cannot recommend Laura enough to photograph your special day! Laura was our wedding photographer this past June and was such a pleasure to work with. While in the process of picking a photographer, Laura and I chatted over Zoom and I was pleasantly surprised with how easy Laura was to talk to, as well as how organized she seemed with her planning. Leading up to the wedding Laura was very communicative and answered all my questions immediately. The day of the wedding she arrived right on time and was incredibly organized. Her second photographer, Bia, was also a pleasure to work with. She was professional and fun- the kids in our wedding party loved Bia and she was able to capture amazing pictures. My fiance and I were somewhat dreading all the group photos that a wedding entails, however Laura ran this process so smoothly we actually had fun taking the photos! We were blown away with the end results. The photos came out absolutely beautiful. Laura captured all the feelings of our special day in every one of her photos. We also received SO many photographs- quite impressive considering I barely even noticed Laura taking pictures while I was so wrapped up in the day. I have zero complaints and only wonderful things to say about Laura. I sincerely hope to work with her again one day!

Franklin & Alison Music In business for over 20 years. Not an agency, just one band to provide you with personal attention to detail and tailor the music to your needs and likes. I love to help couples pick out the songs for each wedding, everyone is different and we like to be creative.

I will just start by saying that hiring the Franklin & Alison Music Band was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding on 5/18/24 at the Atrium of Tenafly! We received so many compliments from all the guests for the quality of the live band we had; and to our joy, the dance floor was always brimming with people. We happened upon the band’s website via The Knot’s suggested music provider list and absolutely loved their sample videos, songs, pictures, and testimonials. From the get go, Laraine was a pleasure to work with - always clear, on point with her answers, considerate, personable, and compassionate. We spoke at length via several phone calls and email exchanges about our history as a couple and our music preferences and then we met in person to go over all the details and narrow down the list of our favorite songs, She paid close attention to the pronunciation of names, nailed the parent dance song suggestions and the timing of the different reception activities. Then Laraine, Keith and the band did an amazing job at compiling an extremely successful playlist customized to our wedding. Katrice’s voice is stunning and so versatile, Sam was the perfect host, Keith was just so fun to chat with, and everyone in the band was just phenomenal! We all had a blast and I couldn’t recommend Franklin & Alison Music highly enough! Hands down the best decision ever!

La Mila Catering & Events

  • Caterer
  • Starts at $75
  • Serves Glen Gardner, NJ

Starting their careers in the restaurant and food industry, Elie & Heidi Hanna decided to utilize their unique experiences and create their own vision of a full service event company. La Mila is named after their daughter, Milana, who provides them with limitless inspiration and motivation.

As a classically trained chef, I hope my review of La Mila inspires anyone doing their “homework” to earn an A — for themselves, especially their guests. I’ve been to many weddings, and the food served is often an edible afterthought. How many times, when leaving a wedding, were you asked, “What did you think about the food?” — and you replied with shrugged shoulders, “Eh, it was okay.” That is not the case with La Mila. A huge shoutout and thank you to Sandy, who was able to pull together a phenomenal menu all in a very timely timeline. Sandy was honest, upfront, and available around our busy work schedule. The day before and the day of, Sandy was there to help with setup — from the big asks, like helping move furniture, to the small tasks—like lighting lanterns and ensuring no glass of champagne for our toast was served empty! Given our wedding took place at our home, we thoroughly appreciated Sandy staying late to clean the kitchen, empty overflowing garbage, and make sure our home was not a war zone when we woke up the next morning! Elie’s execution of our menu was stellar. As a classically trained chef, I was thoroughly impressed by the well-run machine Elie could create within our garage, the makeshift kitchen for the event. It rained on our wedding day, and we were blessed with a beautiful, vivid rainbow—right before dinner service. This blessing brought all our guests outside for 30 minutes—right before dinner. A major wrench in the moment-by-moment timeline. I know how this, for many chefs, can be a disruptive, unexpected delay—but Elie did not miss a beat. All of our guests raved about the food—notably friends who I graduated with from the Culinary Institute of America. One thing I learned in culinary school is that you “eat with your eyes first.” Simply put, Heidi’s presentation skills are on point! Her attention to detail in creating beautiful food displays, notably for our cocktail hour, showed the care, thought and love we wanted our guests to feel. Sandy, Elie, and Heidi may be the stars of La Mila’s show—but the success of our wedding would not have been possible without their hard-working and friendly staff. One of the elements that sold us on choosing La Mila, was their well-stocked arsenal of kitchen equipment they brought on site. (Most caterers require you rent equipment separately, which is not only more expensive, but introduces a whole new dimension of moving parts.) La Mila was also able to include chinaware, silverware, and the majority of our glassware! They even included soft drinks, water, condiments, cocktail napkins, etc. — all of this, and they still came in under what we were quoted by other caterers. Thank you, Sandy, Elie, Heidi, and the entire La Mila Catering & Events team, for making our wedding day what it was. Your talent, professionalism, and experience were felt by everyone who took part in our special day.

Meli is an experienced professional makeup artist who specializes in makeup including airbrush makeup services. Whether you seek a traditional look or full glam, Meli strives to help you realize your beauty vision.

Meli is the best makeup artist I could have asked for on my wedding day. I am so thankful to her for everything! From the trial, which helped me get an idea of what the experience would be, to the day itself, she was nothing but helpful. Meli showed up on time and ready to work, after a few minutes of setting up and a sip of coffee she was ready to go. Everyone was very impressed with how hard she worked! She kept us on schedule so we were able to walk out the door on time. I was impressed by how she was calm and collected while all the chaos was happening around her. All the ladies were so happy with their makeup, and each of us chose very different looks. From the young to the old we all looked glam and felt fabulous. I also changed my inspiration a bit from the trial to the wedding day, and she was more than flexible with adding a bit more glam to the look. She also communicated with me in the months leading up to the wedding, and I never felt like I was left in the dark about anything. My makeup lasted the whole day and I was so sad to take it off since that was the most beautiful I have ever felt. It even lasted through a torrential downpour in NYC as we were running to our hotel room - I looked in the mirror and still had the full glam face on! I would recommend Meli highly and am so happy I got to work with her!

Hey, I’m Daniel. I’m a NY & NJ wedding photographer who incorporates fresh, contemporary techniques to create dramatic portraits for couples on their wedding day. The wedding industry is filled with incredible vendors who want nothing more than for you to have the epic wedding you’ve been dreaming of. But what if you don’t want just the classic and cookie-cutter things that this industry seems to offer? By understanding your needs and tailoring your wedding day coverage to you, I ensure that together we will create an experience that is just as fulfilling as the final image gallery.

Working with Daniel and his team was hands down the best experience I've ever had and would recommend him without any thought. Daniel is definitely a guru at his craft. During my consultation with him I explained I wanted to be relive the moment everytime I looked at my photos and he did just that. He suggested a few locations he thought would deliver what I wanted and he was right. Not only did he pay attention to the small details of the shots but he worked so well with my 2 year old whom I was nervous about cooperating during the session. THANK YOU Daniel for delivering and allowing my husband and I to relive our wedding day every time we look at out photos. This is definitely your calling.
