We had the most incredible wedding thanks to Kastina and her team. From the start, Kastina made us feel taken care of in the daunting process that is wedding planning. She went above and beyond to take every detail we mentioned and made it come to life on the day-of! She connected us with vendors that complimented the style we envisioned while staying thoughtful of our budget. She took so much stress away from the planning process by keeping us on track and handling all the behind-the-scenes work. We received so many compliments on how smooth the day went, how beautiful the ceremony and reception space turned out, and how much fun everyone had! Everyone kept saying it was "the best wedding they've ever been to!". I couldn't recommend her and her team enough.

My name is Meredith. I’m a self-taught photographer, an avid hiker, and a person who loves getting lost in their own city. If I am not photographing, you will either find me in one of two places, a coffee shop or out in nature usually eating my favorite snacks in fish form (Swedish or Gold), or belting anything from musicals to early 2000s country (yes there is a difference) to 90’s hip hop jams.

Awarded Best of Zola
I've had the privilege of working with Meredith at Cross Lake Media for a couple weddings now, and she's been nothing shy of an amazing vendor to work with! As a videographer, she's given me all the creative reign I need to successfully do my job all while being able to do hers as well. She's both professional and personable, and I am so glad the photographer community has brought us together. I love seeing the way she gives her clients the MOST special treatment, and I can't wait to see how she will continue to grow as a photographer.

Hello and welcome! My name is Lindsay and I am a Saint Paul based photographer. My style is a mix of candid, photojournalistic, traditional and artistic. With those techniques in mind, I do my best to tell your story. I believe every story and individual is unique, and therefore should be captured that way.

I had the opportunity to work with Lindsay Miller Photography at an October 2020 wedding. She was the photographer and I was the videographer. She is so wonderful and let me surprise our couple with an even more special full length video - one that showed the whole day through Lindsay's beautiful photos!!  Since I only shot the ceremony, I'm so ecstatic that she was kind enough to team up on the full length video so the couple could watch their entire day, including the parts I wasn't there to video. Her work took that video to the next level and I'm so happy to have gotten the chance to showcase her fantastic work. She was a dream to communicate with, replied in a timely manner, and is such an easy going person to work with. She truly is a dream photographer!

Hi, I'm Kellie! My inspiration comes from my faith, my love for people, and my parents' marriage of almost 40 years. It brings me so much joy to celebrate others. My couples typically describe me as bubbly, organized, and personable. I like to consider myself less like a vendor and more like a friend!

Enjoy contagious, her talent and passion for photography is incredible. Kellie made my husband and I feel like her only clients, and we still look at our photos weekly as if we just got them back. Her knowledge and expertise helped us plan or shot list perfectly, and she put all of my nerves at ease. She has such a knack for capturing the best moments full of love, laughter, and even a few happy tears. There aren’t enough words to describe how grateful we are to have had such a timely, attentive, and kind person to capture the most important day of our lives.

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

I have always been captured by the beauty of nature and flowers. There is something miraculous and poetic in the way flowers grow out of the dirt and bring such variety and delight. ​​​​​​​​ This is why we incorporate flowers into the most pivotal moments in our lives. Flowers are symbols of all the potential in these moments; they speak to all the possibility of our lives while reminding us that, though beautiful, life is fragile. ​​​​​​​​ ​​​Participating in this language of flowers is what I love to do with Bedecked. Capturing and framing life’s significant moments with all the beauty and mystery of flowers!

Awarded Best of Zola
I would give 15/10 stars if I could. Becca was the best. She was so kind, easy to work with, wonderful and her work was the most beautiful wedding flowers I have ever seen (yes, it was my wedding so while I might be biased I also have been to a LOT of weddings and I stand by the best wedding flowers I have ever seen). We didn't give her much direction other than "we like fall and its a fall wedding" and she took that and made it the fall wedding of our dreams. We received so many compliments on our flowers all night (even from strangers while we were taking pictures). And now that we have some of our pictures back people are STILL commenting on how good they look in pictures. She was timely, always responded to my many emails and took both my husbands and my ideas and made them one cohesive idea.

I grew up with a life saturated in creativity. To put it simply: I love my job. My style tends to be joyful, raw, romantic, & bold. I love a deep splash of color in a palette of neutrals and natural light. I love traveling, ethnic food, & ice cream! Getting married myself helped me to realize the importance of wedding photography more than I could’ve imagined. I am also all about printing photos. I’ve shot over 75 weddings, and continue to in Las Vegas, NV, MN, ND, and beyond. I would love to serve you as a part of my journey. All I want is to build a relationship with you, be your third wheel, & send you off with memories.

Nikayla was wonderful to work with and our photos turned out incredibly. Her artistry, professionalism and flexibility captured the romance and beauty of our wedding day.

Welcome! I am Allison! The Badass Behind The Flowers. The official flower handler of Floret & Foliage. I live in Wahpeton, with my bearded husband, Jesse; two dogs, Ruxin, Penny, and three cats, Dottie, Kit, & Lewis affectionately known as Poopis. I rarely brush my hair, and it is almost always in a ponytail or a bun, and probably a different color than the last time you saw me.

Allison at F&F is just the BEST!!! She flowered our wedding in June of 2024 and just did a perfect job. Our theme was bright and colorful and she just nailed it. We got SO many compliments on the florals. I was obsessed with my bouquet. 10/10 recommend F&F and Allison for all your flower needs!!!!!! She is the best in Fargo/Moorhead!

I love a good love story. There’s nothing I enjoy more than photographing the kind of love that sets the soul on fire. Or capturing the excitement that comes from saying ‘yes’ to forever with your best friend. I’m empowered by the couples who are passionate about life but don’t take it too seriously. The ones who crave adventure and aren’t afraid to blaze their own trail. Who value connection and intentional conversation while making the time and space in their relationship to grow in love and as individuals.

If your looking for a laid back, caring, passionate photographer, Emilee is YOUR GIRL! Her talent is unmatched and photographs completely represent who she is as a person and professional. We cant say enough amazing things about her:)

Heyyy there! I’m Kiersten, the founder and creative force behind the lens. Born and raised in West Virginia, this beautiful state is what I call my home. I’ve developed a love for traveling across the United States, and I’m excited to expand my adventures internationally in December 2024. I’m passionate about capturing that best friend type of love—the real, raw, and candid moments that make your relationship unique. On your wedding day, my focus is on documenting your authentic selves, from those emotional first looks to cozy moments during golden hour. And I’m all about the pops of color!

From the very first moment I met Kiersten, I knew she was the perfect choice to document our wedding. Her warm and engaging personality made us feel completely at ease, allowing us to truly enjoy every moment of our special day. The way she captures the essence of a moment is nothing short of magical. Her romantic style effortlessly highlights the love and joy shared between us and our guests. Each photograph tells a beautiful story, filled with emotion and grace. We were especially impressed by her ability to capture candid moments, turning fleeting seconds into cherished memories that we will treasure forever. Her attention to detail and genuine passion for their craft are evident in every shot. Whether it was a quiet, intimate exchange or a lively dance floor scene, she managed to capture every moment. In addition to how talented she is, she brought a sense of calm and joy to the day. Her friendly demeanor and approach made us feel like we were in the best hands possible. We couldn't have asked for a more dedicated and compassionate photographer to be a part of our celebration. If you're looking for a photographer who will not only deliver stunning, romantic images but also add a touch of warmth and personal connection to your wedding day, we wholeheartedly recommend Kiersten. She is truly one of the sweetest souls.

I've always had an interest in photography, but my passion really took off when I had my first child. There is something special about capturing children in the moments of pure joy. The special moments in people's lives, sometimes lasting only an instant, are the reason I decided to pursue a career in photography. I live for taking that perfect candid shot. Weddings, children at play, engagements, all of them offer their moments, maybe even one, that you can never get back. My goal is to always capture those moments you can look back and reflect on for a lifetime.

Jake is SOooo great to work with and I couldn’t recommend him and Two Oaks Photography more. He took our engagement photos as well and was so easy to work with, he had great ideas for poses to try and entertained all of my ideas too. I knew when I got those pics back that I definitely made the right choice for a wedding photographer! He was with us ALL DAY and night on our wedding day, going to both the bride and groom locations of getting ready and then never missed a beat all day (and night when he even took pics at the bar after the reception!!). He brought in a second photographer too which put me at ease that literally every moment of our day was being captured. Jake is the best and definitely comes highly recommended by me and my husband!!!

I never saw myself having a wedding. Never imagined the venue, the flowers, or the centerpieces. Never had any ideas about what my hair would look like or the dress I would wear. One night I was sitting with my mom and she said “I see you getting married on a beach somewhere, with just a few friends. Then afterwards we have a bonfire and music, and we laugh all night.” It’s like she was living in my brain- that felt so right to me- and I had never seen a wedding like that. I didn’t know that kind of thing was allowed? From then on that’s the only way I’ve pictured my wedding to be one day. That’s what I want to help my couples find.

Awarded Best of Zola
We highly recommend Lily and her work is amazing! She took our engagement photos and then our wedding photos on a rainy day and they turned out so good. I have received so many compliments on my photos and we aren't sure how they turned out so incredible in the rain, but she is magic! If you are looking for a fun time and moody, earthy photos Lily is your girl! She is incredibly talented and won't let you down.
