My husband and I LOVED working with Ali for our wedding at the Picnic House in Prospect Park! She was responsive to all of our questions and quick to answer calls and emails. On the day, she put everyone at ease and corralled everyone to get through the family portraits quickly. She totally captured our vision for the day and we're so happy with how our photos came out! We absolutely recommend working with Ali for your special day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Naked Soul (led by Tony and Tom Perrone) absolutely ROCKED at our wedding! Tons of friends and family told us during and afterwards that they were the best wedding band they'd seen, and we might be biased, but we agree wholeheartedly. They were also pretty great to work with, and as a result music was one of the least stressful parts of planning and one of the best memories of the event. The planning process was extremely professional — we had a few calls with Tony to talk over the vibe we were going for in the ceremony, cocktail hour, and dance floor. They sent over a list of a couple hundred songs in their repertoire and we picked 20 or so to anchor their idea of what we were looking for and selected our processionals, recessional, first dance, and parent-child dances. Our first dance was not on their list but they learned it and killed it in their performance. Our venue was a little non-traditional (relatively small room for the dance floorband) and we weren't sure that a full band was going to work in the space, but Tony put us at ease and pulled it off amazingly. One of the points Tony made in the run-up was that the songs we were picking were recommendations, not a set list. The band was going to follow the vibe and play more of whatever style was working with the crowd. This made it so much easier for us to pick songs, and in the end they played a lot of stuff that wasn't in our pics but went over better than we could have dreamed. I never thought I'd say that the best songs at my wedding were from the Backstreet Boys, Spice Girls, and Black Eyed Peas. They knew their audience and the place went wild when they played Everybody (Backstreet's Back). The range of songs that a 10-piece band with a full array of vocalists can pull off is wild. Anyway, 10/10, would book again. If you're in the New York area and looking for a party we can't recommend Perrone Bros/Naked Soul highly enough. Bonus, these pics were taken by Tony and posted to their Instagram after the event.

Justin & Jesse were amazing! We got married this past October at Blooming Hill Farm, and they made our wedding so special. We had Justin & Jesse play live music for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and then Justin DJ’ed our reception. Right from the start, Justin was incredibly easy to work and communicate with. We didn’t have a hyper-specific vision for our music and Justin was great at making recommendations but also allowing us to personalize things and make it more us. On the day of, they were punctual and so flexible - I think I sent my cut-off times for the first and parent dances the morning of the wedding! We got so many compliments on the live music, our guests were truly blown away by how talented they were. We had a very small wedding (20 people) and Justin was great at reading the mood on the dance floor. Our guests danced all night long! Can’t recommend these guys enough!

They were professional while also personable making the experience very relaxed and natural.

On the day of, Nelson and his team eased right in without a hitch bouncing from one location to the next and corralling us and family seamlessly while staying on time. There wasn't a single moment of concern or stress during photos! Now to gush about the product!! Nelson and his team caught the most PERFECT moments. My husband and I expressed early on that we preferred candid or organic shots and not so much the typical couple poses. And I must say, Nelson got it right! It brought us right back to the day when we were looking through the huge inventory of shots. Brought tears of joy and gratitude. Lets not forget the video!! My GOD!! It was truly an emotionally provoking video and definitely a fan favorite with family. To Nelson and his team, Dave and I couldn't be happier with all your hard work.

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!

Using Rich was one of the best wedding decisions we made. We really liked his style and ended up feeling very comfortable with him during our first phone conversation so we decided to go with him. From the very initial calls, to the engagement shoot and eventually to the wedding, Rich was super thorough, helpful, encouraging and informative. He was able to be so helpful and guided us while also perfectly incorporating our preferences and discussions. When the wedding day came, he was so calm and really relived us of any anxiety and stress and he led us and our party through the day. He made everyone feel so comfortable and it really showed in the shots. The second photographer he brought, Greg, was also just the best and made us all feel so comfortable throughout the day. We thank you so much Rich for all you did for us and for making this whole experience super positive! The final pictures came out better than we could have ever expected and encourage anyone considering using Ciro photography to do so, you really won’t regret it.

Dean Street Daisies 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Hawthorne, NY

Hi there! I’m Karina, an architect turned floral designer dabbling in all things daisies and more! My enthusiasm for floristry began in Brooklyn as a way to express my love for nature and design, but mostly so I could bring color, life, and beauty into my apartment on, you guessed it, Dean Street! Now, Dean Street Daisies has blossomed into a full-service floral and event design studio on the Hudson River in Irvington, NY where I live and create in a converted chapel with my husband and two cats!

If I could do my wedding all over again, I would just so that I can re-live how amazing my flowers were at my wedding!!! I was introduced to Karina from Dean Street Daisies by a colleague at work after I mentioned to him how anxious I was about my flowers for the wedding. I emailed Karina, and in less than 24 hours she scheduled a consultation meeting with me and had been nothing but a delight to work with since then. We bonded on the fact that we are both architects, so I knew how responsible, detail oriented, and design focused she would be. I was not too sure what I wanted in the beginning, so during our consultation, she helped guide me through specific questions about my vision, what colors I'm attracted to, what type of flowers I typically like, etc. Her consultation helped me do a more thorough research, so after I sent her a general moodboard, Karina quickly built and shared with me a design presentation along with a detailed cost analysis that was perfectly within my budget. Karina was honest and upfront from the beginning about how much things would cost, and helped me find the right balance of number of arrangements/ types of flowers that would be around my budget and still fit my vision. And let me tell you... I went from not prioritizing flowers on my wedding day, to the flowers becoming the most important feature of the day! They were absolutely MAGICAL. Everyone was raving about them, and two months later, I still go through all my pictures and daydream about how beautiful my arrangements and bouquets were. If I could give 10 stars for Karina's artistry, professionalism, and commitment to her important role in my wedding I would. Thank you again!!

Hi there! My name is Jesse Rinka, owner of Jesse Rinka Photography and one of the luckiest men you will ever meet. Why? Because unlike so many others, I am blessed with the opportunity to wake up each and every day and do what I truly love for a living. It's an amazing blessing made possible by those closest to me...especially my wife & Studio Manager Maria who is my rock and number one supporter along with my two sons. I've got a huge responsibility to set a great example for my kids and that's my motivation to be the best that I can be. Second only to my family, photography is my life.

Jesse Rinka Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Jesse and his partner Maria were incredibly responsive, communicative, and personable. They answered all of our questions leading up to the big day with ease, even as we navigated the uncertainty of planning a wedding during the pandemic in 2020. On the wedding day itself, Jesse's calm and professional demeanor helped keep us relaxed and focused amidst the chaos. The photos they captured are truly stunning - beautiful, unique, and timeless, with a clear passion for their craft. We've since used Jesse for additional lifestyle photo sessions, and he continues to be a joy to work with, making the process seamless and enjoyable every time. We cannot recommend Jesse Rinka Photography highly enough.
