Grace saved me when I was struggling with adult acne. She created a customized treatment plan for my needs and cleared my skin with two treatments. I've been seeing her monthly for almost two years now for customized facials to maintain my clear complexion. I very much look forward to my appointments with Grace! She is so personable and loves what she does. I can't thank her enough for my clear skin -- I used to never leave the house without putting foundation/makeup on, and now I love my skin and feel more confident than ever, so I often go out into the world with a fresh face, no makeup! Can’t recommend Grace enough!

Hi! I’m Christine, and my business is my passion. I'm on a mission to ensure our clients get to be guests at their own parties. Growing up, I watched my mom, grandmothers, aunts, and sisters go crazy every time we had family events, never able to truly enjoy the moment. Now, I’m here to change that! 🌟

From the time I contacted Party Professionals LLC, I was happy with their responsive, fast, and easy booking process.

I truly can't say enough good things about Lex, I recommend her to every person I know! She's an amazing person, her work is incredible, and she always goes above and beyond for her clients. She's so easygoing, extremely flexible, and will make your shoots so comfortable and relaxed. We did a few shoots with Lex prior to getting engaged. She actually helped my fiance plan our engagement and she absolutely nailed both execution and the photos. She was the first vendor we booked for our wedding and was the easiest decision we made the entire planning process. She was extremely patient at our official engagement shoot when we brought our crazy dogs and were trying to get them to sit still and pose for a few photos, and had no issues editing out a big black stain that got on the side of my white dress during our shoot. She's someone who truly cares about her work AND her clients, and will do whatever she needs to to make your experience perfect. Every frame in my house is filled with photos taken by Lex. If you're considering hiring her for your big day, this is your sign to DO IT!

Mushmouth 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $8,000
  • Serves Hawthorne, NJ

Mushmouth plays every show like it's Madison Square Garden! Lead singer Bill's energy is off the charts - a mix of Bruce Springsteen, Mick, Jagger, James Brown and a sprinkle of David Byrne all rolled into one! The band, a group of longtime friends, pulls off note for note renditions of all the songs while also adding to the on-stage fun. The Mushmouth show consists of big hits, one hit wonders and lost nuggets from the 70's, 80's, 90's and beyond. From Glen Campbell to the FOO FIGHTERS, Duran Duran to Eric Church.

Mushmouth is an absolutely incredible band—they had people asking us all night (and still to this day) how I found them. I think I turned quite a few of our wedding guests into Mushmouth groupies! From the beginning they were very accommodating, always quick to respond and accommodating to our song requests. They have a huge set list to select from no matter what your taste is, and they even learned new songs just for us so that we could do our first dance with live music. It really felt like we were part of a live concert just for us at our wedding. They sound so amazing and not only are they truly talented musicians, but they are also incredible performers who got everyone to dance and sing along. I received compliments all night that they were the best cover band anyone had ever heard. Mushmouth made our wedding day extra special, and I would book them again in a heartbeat.

From our first conversation, she was so warm and attentive, asking about my vision and style like she truly wanted to bring my dream to life. She made me feel like more than just a client—more like a friend she was rooting for every step of the way.

  • Serves Hawthorne, NJ

I reside in Jersey City, New Jersey, serving New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and beyond. I grew up surrounded by family photos. My parents had a professional photography business, Infinity Photography, back in the days of film. My friend asked me to do her senior portraits, so I started my photography business after my parent's business was closed for nearly 20 years. Fun fact, I chose "Grey" because I'm a nerd, and I love Jean Grey - she's my fave X-men. Also, my name is hard to spell, especially when you hear it. It's like "Leah" with a "Tuh."

Taliya gave us the absolute best wedding photography experience. She was extremely professional and quick to answer any questions at any point along the way. She made sure every detail was arranged before hand so there were 0 surprises along the way and day of. Not to mention that the photos turned out phenomenal. She was great at posing and framing to get the best shots and made sure that everything got pictured and captured from our special day. Would recommend 100%

I don’t even know where to begin to explain how absolutely amazing the Grand was for the best night of our lives. We attended a wedding for close friends here two years ago, immediately fell in love with the Grand and knew this was where we wanted to get married. Fast forward to our engagement; from the moment we first reached out, our Maitre D Sal and his team were always professional, extremely friendly, and timely in all of their communications, providing us with accurate information every step of the way. The quality of their work was simply beautiful - the venue itself was clean, modern, and elegantly appointed, creating the perfect backdrop for our special day. Sal, Manny, Evelina and the entire team at The Grand went above and beyond to ensure our wedding ran smoothly, and our guests have been raving for days about the massive cocktail hour, the exceptional quality of the food, and the stunning ballroom and all other facilities. We have had a bunch of friends and family reach out to tell us that this was the best wedding they have ever been to. The attention to detail is simply unmatched. We have been to at least 20 weddings and cannot compare the Grand to anything else in the tri-state area. We really could not have asked for a better venue to celebrate our marriage. We HIGHLY recommend the Grand and we cannot wait to go back as guests again.

We never thought we would be able to get such amazing pictures within our budget - but Instill Wonder definitely delivered!

I'm a wife, a mom and a New Jersey wedding photographer!! I love Jesus! I really really love to travel!!! And I'm the one who always plan the vacations. My favorite food is Italian. If I had to choose between the beach or snow, you will definitely see me jumping into the water!! I have a degree in Accounting and Finance and I love to create budgets. I was born in Cuba, so my first language is Spanish, lived in Colombia for a few years and my plan is to get old in the United States.

Sarai came recommended in a wedding group I was in, and we could not have been more pleased with our decision to hire her for our intimate courthouse wedding. From our very first interaction, Sarai was incredibly responsive, friendly, and collaborative in helping us plan the perfect November morning around lower Manhattan. My husband and I have varying degrees of comfort with pictures, yet she was able to capture both staged shots and joyful, candid moments that made our wedding day so memorable. Sarai took the time to get to know us as a couple and brought out our goofy, playful sides without even trying. She went above and beyond anything we could have imagined, delivering the best value for the incredible quality of her work. Sarai is not only an incredibly talented photographer, but a genuinely kind and personable human being. We cannot recommend Sari Photography highly enough for any couple looking to document their wedding day with beautiful, timeless imagery.

The North Shore House holds a special place in our hearts- they helped make our wedding day the literal BEST DAY EVER. From start to finish, we couldn't have been happier! Emma and the rest of the staff were timely with communication, SUPER organized, helpful with details, and so attentive. Emma was truly a rockstar point person- we can't rave about her enough! The space speaks for itself: the outdoor space perfectly amplifies the natural beauty of the lake, and the indoor space is cozy, warm, and inviting- a perfect place to dance the night away! The food was amazing (must get the pistachio crusted lamb chops), and the wait staff was the most helpful. We have been to the restaurant several times before, so knew the food was delicious, but our guests couldn't stop mentioning how tasty everything was! Some bullet points of things we LOVED: -the hotel rooms are cozy, individual, and inviting, with space for all the hotel guests to chill and hang out -North Shore picked us up from my parent's lake house on the other side of the lake in their 2 pontoon boats, and we had a blast riding to the ceremony -everything was meticulously set up, from the beautiful white chairs to the signs we had made -Can't stress how beautiful the outdoor ceremony was -My husband and I scheduled 5 minutes alone together in the bocce ball quart after the ceremony during cocktail hour, and the staff had pre set a plate of hors d'ouvres and 2 cocktails there for us so we didn't miss any of the food -One of the waitresses told my husband and I at the start of the night that she was going to make sure we ate enough and drank enough water throughout the night- she was so sweet, and several times made sure we had cocktails and champagne. -The dance floor was big enough for all of our friends and family to dance- we were on the floor the entire night! - We used all of the North Shore House's preferred vendors (Platinum Band, Karen's Kreations, Orchard Street photography, Stocker Bus) and couldn't have been happier with their suggestions -We did an after party in the back bar- super fun! If you want a beautiful venue with picture perfect outdoor space, cozy indoor space, delicious food, super helpful personnel, and overall GREAT vibes, book North Shore House!

  • Band or Ensemble

  • Serves Hawthorne, NJ

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.

12/10. Having Maggie at our wedding made the experience even more incredible than we could've ever imagined. The biggest highlight was having photos and videos to look back on within about 12 hours. Before we were even really feeling like people again I was already scrolling through our shared album and reliving the best night of my life. Maggie made everyone around us comfortable too. She explained what she would be doing and how we could/should interact with her. For some things it was candid, others more posed and it was so easy to take direction from her. If you’re looking for a content creator or you’re on the fence about hiring one .. DO IT and make sure it’s Magdrop Creations, there is no chance you’d ever regret it.

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.
