nectar&bloom

  • Florist
  • Serves Howard Beach, NY
  • Offer

Self-proclaimed plant nerds, we are two kick a** horticulturists who met in the public garden world and have carved a place for ourselves in the floral biz. Weddings are our jam. With the creative process at the heart of all we do, hands-on service is an understatement. From day one to day-of, we got you. Plan, design, deliver- cross them off the list. Oh... and we will oogle your invites, hug your families, and tear up when we deliver your blooms. We can’t help it. We are so grateful. Client focused and design driven. Your big day is our big day at nectar&bloom. Trust the process and we’re in!

When working on wedding planning, we knew right away that we wanted to use nectar& bloom for our florals. We wanted something fun, unique, and just not what you always see at most weddings in our area. Lisa and Ann Marie were amazing in their communication and breakdowns of what could work with our budget and venue space, and were very adaptable and helpful as changes came along the way! We had high expectations coming into our wedding day, but they were absolutely blown out of the park once we saw everything come to life! From my bridal bouquet to the AMAZING floral arch and centerpieces, we were absolutely thrilled with how bright, colorful, fun, and unique our florals were. Our guests are still raving about the flowers that we had, and I even sent out our flowers to be preserved so that I have this amazing piece of our day treasured forever. I would highly recommend using the n&b team for your wedding day; whether you are looking for something more traditional or going for something more unique and personalized, you are in great hands with Lisa and Ann Marie designing your dream day!!

Kim-Trang Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Howard Beach, NY

After working 10+ years in corporate America in NYC, California and traveling the globe, I found myself wanting more than what the traditional career path had set for me. I stumbled into photography while I was on maternity leave with my oldest and started a side hustle that I had no idea was going to turn into a complete career change years later. From the very first wedding I shot, I knew I was onto something. And ever since then, I haven't looked back.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kim-Trang Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the start, Kim’s communication style was ahead of the game - she was warm, friendly, and we were excited to have her on our team. Kim is talented and committed and truly captured the joy and intimacy of our special day. She connected with us and our family in a way that felt more like having a friend there than just a vendor. One of our favorite touches was the sweet Polaroids she left with our wedding cards - the perfect surprise when we were feeling a bit of the post-wedding blues. We couldn't be happier with the sneak peeks we've seen so far and can't wait to see the full gallery. Kim-Trang Photography went above and beyond to make our wedding day truly unforgettable.

Snowdrop Creative Co. 

4.3

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,300
  • Serves Howard Beach, NY

Snowdrop Creative Co. was born from a dream. A dream that I could do the things that I LOVE, be present for my children and my partner, and create work that I am proud of. It sounds like what we all wish for, right? Well, it isn't always so simple as "I want this, so I'm doing it." I spent ten years in retail management. I spent long days away from my family, only to get home to them and be too tired to enjoy my time with them. My life was cold and dreary, and I knew something had to change. And so, Snowdrop was born. A place where I can create and love what I do. Capture memories and magic and joy in a single moment.

Alex has done two different photo sessions for me and both turned out beautifully! We did a family mini session and cake smash photos for my son’s first birthday as well as business photos. Both sessions were super fun and Alex made the process so easy. Her communication was great and she was wonderful to work with. My daughter (3) has been super shy for family photos in the past, and she was starting off the same way this session but Alex let her do her own thing, relax, and open up on her own. By the end Kinsley was talking her ear off and trying to get her to go on an exploring adventure with her. I highly recommend Alex and her team for your photo needs!

  • Serves Howard Beach, NY

Kimberly is a wedding, music, and editorial photographer. Her work is natural, warm and smart, combining a trained eye for photojournalism with romantic charm and colorful energy. Building from 16 years' experience managing one of the top wedding photography studios in NYC and collaborations with some of the most respected photographers in the industry she started Craven & Co. Photography - a team of visual artists working with clients to capture events and celebrations around the world. She is southern charm with a touch of New York grit; a hometown photographer with big city savvy - the perfect combination for an exceptional photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kimberly is an expert. And we would recommend her to anyone. My partner was a groomsmen in a wedding that Kimberly was the photographer for and he was so impressed by her presence and efficiency (not to mention we both loved her photography) that we immediately reached out when it came to our wedding.  Her ability to capture the best and sweetest moments without feeling like we were surrounded by cameras is truly a super power. We were floored by the incredible images she took. Not only did she manage the schedule based off of the photos we wanted to take, but her talent is evident in the countless pictures we have from our wedding weekend that look back on this special milestone. She captured the essence of our day in ways that felt natural to my partner and me -- and to us, that's the mark of an expert photographer.  Kimberly also balances this ability to wield a calm and warm energy while commanding a large room of people to get a photo together -- which is not easy. Her energy and grace is exactly what you need on a stressful day filled with places to be and schedules to follow. She was truly our favorite person to work with leading up to and during the weekend. Easy, efficient, communicative and most importantly kind.  Photos are important to look back on the day you've spent so much time preparing for and we would put our faith in Kimberly all over again for future events and endless recommendations to other couples. We are forever grateful for the beautiful pictures she took of us.

Jamie Bodo Photography

  • Serves Howard Beach, NY

When you hire Jamie you actually GET Jamie as your photographer on your wedding day! Why? 1. I LOVE photographing weddings! (I don’t want to send someone else to “do it for me” 🤪) 2. If you’re reading this, then you’re at the stage right now where you are researching individual photographers style, reading reviews showing their reputation, and scheduling a call to research their personality while sharing your vision. …. Now imaging doing all that work just for a “team member” or “an associate” photographer to show up on your wedding day? CRAZY RIGHT?! When you hire Jamie, your date is locked in FOR YOU, no unwanted surprises!

We recently hired Jamie for engagement photos and our wedding. I had met with several other photography companies prior to meeting with Jamie, but we didn’t click with any of them, and we couldn’t see any of them being at our wedding. When we first met with Jamie, she was ready to answer all of our questions and guide us through the wedding day, plus she was super fun and easy to get along with. Our big day was flawless, and she was a big part of making sure things went well. We got our photos back yesterday and they are stunning, she even captured all of the funny moments in between posed photos! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

Gerald was our wedding signer and guitarist at Central Park. He was absolutely amazing, I could not have asked for anyone better! He spoke to all the guest before I arrived in between songs and they all are still talking about him and how great and friendly he was. His singing and playing was perfection that I am still thinking about him bringing my songs to life! Being from the U.K. and having an overseas wedding he made everything so easy to organise and book. No question was left unanswered and he made me feel at ease from day one! Do not hesitate to book - you will not regret it!

I started working as a photographer because I'm passionate about helping people showcase who they are and what they have to offer.

I'm in love with human emotions, either it's laughing till it hurts or tears of happiness. When your man hugs you so strong, that you can't breathe or when your dad is crying (for the first time in his life!) listening to your vows at the altar. I do believe, that these un-staged moments are more meaningful than classy portraits on a sunset (but no worries, you'll plenty of both!) If you feel like we are on the same page - let's talk! Write me a few words about who you are, tell me your story and let's create something beautiful together!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are reading this, go book Dasha! The wedding photographer was the most important vendor for us. After talking to many photographers, we ended up booking Dasha and that's the best decision we've ever made. Through our engagement session, we got so comfortable in front of her camera and the photos turned out great. Ahead of the wedding, I had a final meeting with Dasha and you could tell that she cares about her couples and gives good advice on the timeline. On the wedding day, her professionalism and creativity made the day so easy for us, and we didn't need to give her a long shortlist because we trusted her. When we received the full gallery, we were so BLOWN AWAY. The editing style speaks for itself. We also loved the way she documented our special - it feels very natural and authentic. Many of our families and friends asked us who our photographer was, and we cannot recommend Dasha enough. Thank you, Dasha!!

I had the opportunity to work with Lee Ramsay Events for our wedding in August. Lee demonstrated the perfect temperament and attention to detail needed. My fiancé is a surgical resident meaning much of the planning was left to me (the groom) and Lee. Lee managed all of the personalities in our wedding party, family, and venue masterfully. We continue to receive compliments days and weeks after about our wedding and the level of organization that made our day flow so well. She was a true joy to work with and all of our other vendors shared that she was one of the best planners they had ever worked with. When we hired Lee, we did not think we needed a full planner, but she more than demonstrated her ability in one of Manhattan’s premier venues. Lee offered other value add services and guidance to making our wedding weekend the perfect one. Her team of bridal attendants and assistants were incredible on Wedding day. I cannot recommend Lee Ramsay Events enough. I am excited to watch her career take off because she is clearly one of NYC’s most talented people in the event space and can handle events large and small.

We had an absolutely amazing experience working with Jillicious! My husband and I are major foodies so we knew we didn’t want to have standard wedding food at our reception. We started searching for wedding caterers that would work with us to customize the perfect menu for our wedding day. Jillicious did not disappoint! We worked with Chef Jill to put together the most delicious menu of both apps and main courses. Everyone we spoke to after the wedding couldn’t stop raving about how good the food was. It honestly rivaled many of our favorite restaurants in NYC. In addition to the food, Chef Jill and her staff were amazing. They were so responsive throughout the whole wedding process and offered so many great recommendations. On the wedding day, the staff were very helpful with getting the rentals in order, setting up the tables, etc. We also had some guests thank us for how allergy conscious the wedding and staff were. We're so grateful to Jillicious for bringing our vision to life and couldn’t recommend them more! They truly contributed to an absolutely perfect wedding day!

As a great listener, she was very respectful of our wishes and took the time to understand our vision for our special day. Punctual and ready to capture every moment, Heather was loving and passionate about her craft.

Hi! My name is Hannah Jan Schillinger and I’m the owner and lead photographer of Hannah Jan Photo. I grew up in Westchester, New York and graduated from Kenyon College with a degree in Art History. My education in fine art trained me to observe and see the beauty in the everyday. This background guides me to not only capture authentic moments, but gave me a curated eye and ability to document the personality of couples and the spirit of their love celebrations.

Hannah's talent in the frame is matched by her presence on the day. No fewer than 5x throughout our big day did I think to myself, wow Hannah is crushing it. The results were beyond expectation. 11/10, wouldn't wedding again without Hannah

Connection is everything, and my passion is to capture human connection in a unique and artistic way. I have one goal behind my craft, to deliver a collection of photos that hold cherished moments, feelings, and the ambience of that special day. I look at my work as a tool that enables my clients to re-live their proposal, engagement or wedding at any point in their lives.

Danny is an amazing photographer all around. He was a pleasure to work with. Right from the start he was responsive and answered all our questions. My husband and I aren’t photogenic and get shy showing affection in front of people but he made it feel comfortable and the photos look natural. He is easy to talk to but still very professional. The delivery time of the photos was only a couple weeks! They were exactly what we were looking for. Danny also had the lowest price in our area. Overall, we are extremely happy Danny got to capture our big day and highly recommend him!

From our first meeting I know Matty would be the perfect fit. He is super kind and incredibly professional. He led us through the wedding process with ease and smiles. He listened to our requests and added his own magic which I knew he would do. The dance floor was packed!! Matty was perfect in his execution- never stealing the spotlight from the bride and groom and he didn’t sing and shout over the music which we appreciated! (That has a time and place but not for this wedding). He pulled together instrumentals for the ceremony and managed the artists and added musicians at the reception and it really brought out the celebratory vibe of the night. We were all smiles and many and he was too! Amazing job! Hire him asap or you will miss out:)

Hello, my lovely couples! My name is Annie and I have started my business at the beginning of 2023 and so far I've had clients from all over the East Coast. I am focused on Partial, Full time Wedding planning, Elopements and A-la carte. My goal is to help my clients and make sure that their wedding goes by the plan that they created.

Annie from Before You Say I Do was an exceptional day-of-coordinator for our special day. Her communication style was frequent, clear, thoughtful, timely, and she was quick to respond to all of our questions and needs. The quality of her work and the value she provided was excellent-- she is hard-working and was incredibly considerate throughout the entire process. She went above and beyond, offering to bring additional decorations and even showing up the day before to assist with our traditional Vietnamese Tea Ceremony, which was not even on the same day as our official wedding. We had only hired her for her day-of coordination package, but even so, she was a consistent voice and helping hand for us for months leading up to the wedding. I can only imaging if we would have booked her whole wedding planning service, our wedding probably would have somehow been even more perfect than it already was. We are so grateful for her dedication and attention to detail in making our wedding day perfect. I highly recommend booking Annie!

My best friend Rose was planning her wedding and asked if I would arrange the flowers. I absolutely loved being creative and being part of her special day. The next week I enrolled in Flower School and after I finished my studies I started The Gathering florist and haven’t looked back!

Victoria did an amazing job and was super communicative throughout the whole process. Halfway through the planning I realized the venue had repainted and Victoria easily and quickly reshuffled the floral plans to accommodate new colors. Her and her assistant were super friendly, on time, and did a beautiful job turning our venue of a Brooklyn dive bar into a lovely and romantic space. The chuppah was framed with beautiful birch trees and really gave a sense of solidity and ritual to the ceremony. They also efficiently and unobtrusively took it down after the ceremony was over. Thank you!!

Ben traveled the furthest he'd ever traveled for a wedding for us! He was incredibly friendly, kind, and fun to talk/work with. On our big day, Ben was relaxed and calm even when things seemed to get crazy, He listened to exactly what we wanted and found the best stops for pictures and our private vows.

My beauty journey started when I was about 4 years old.That’s when I helped myself to my mother’s lipsticks—which weren’t easy to come by in those days! I decided that day -and all days- should be Halloween, and I painted my face accordingly. As I grew, my love affair with makeup intensified. When I was a teenager, I would wear heavy, smoky eye makeup. I’ve grown out of that stage, having come to appreciate natural beauty. It’s natural beauty that I focus on now. But don’t get me wrong! I still love a wide palate of colors and working on creative photoshoots, pictorial projects, and editorial pieces.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a great experience with Elena and her team! We did the silver package and my best friends, mom, and I were all thrilled with the end product and experience overall. We were not a make up and hair savvy group and she easily took us through the process and went with the vibe each girl asked for. She really listened to us when we asked for a more natural look and I couldn’t have felt more beautiful on my wedding day.
