  • Serves Long Island City, 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 Long Island City, 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.

We had The Last Nites as our wedding band on 8-9-24 and could not have been happier with them! Our guests of all ages were on the dance floor all night as the band absolutely crushed some oldies, some classics, and some modern jams. Our guests kept telling us how electric the energy in the room was all night. The Last Nites also had to learn our first dance song and did an amazing job with it. They were accommodating every step of the way during the planning process. Could not recommend The Last Nites more, and we can't wait to see them again in the NYC area!

  • Photographer

  • Serves Long Island City, 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!

Jamie was recommended to us by a friend who had recently used her in their wedding—and we would 110% recommend Jamie too! She brings the utmost professionalism; from the first time we talked, she had already researched the venue we had chosen to get married at and was already prepared with questions and an understanding of the venue’s layout. Going through the wedding process can be a lot of chaos, but we knew from the start that we would never have to worry about Jamie! Throughout, she also showed so much excitement and passion for us as a couple from being excited about the colors we had chosen to her sheer enthusiasm on the day-of as we took our first look photos. Jamie is amazingly personable and was incredibly helpful at instructing us on where to be to stage the best moments and making us feel comfortable each stop of the way. Oh, and the pictures she took? They all came out absolutely PERFECT. We are so happy that we went with Jamie!

Not only did they have a great song selection, but they were willing to learn new songs for us and also play them in styles that we asked. We could not have been more pleased with their performance!

Hi there! I'm Anthony Parker, a passionate and Published wedding photographer based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. With years of experience in the field, I have developed a strong expertise in capturing the most precious moments of your special day. Photography has always been my true passion, and being able to document the love and joy that radiates from couples on their wedding day brings me immense joy.

My husband I were lucky enough to have Anthony as our photographer with the East Coast Event group. Anthony was with me (the bride) for the morning and he was phenomenal to work with. Very relaxed (at least it seemed haha) and didn't add any stress to the day but gave direction and professional opinion when needed. I have to admit, I didn't have much of a plan when it came to photos but he truly captured everything I wanted and took the best candids that I will cherish forever. He also made a point to ask us several times throughout the night if there was any specific photos that we wanted. Our one wish was to take a lot of staged shots before the ceremony so that we would make it to our cocktail hour and he made that happen, no problem! My husband and I are beyond happy with the photos we received (very quickly after the day) and recommend Anthony to anyone!!

We are wedding photographers best matched with clients that have a preference for unscripted, candid moments. Clients booked with quirky venues, offbeat receptions or eclectic wedding plans. Or clients leaning toward the editorial and artistic side of photography with natural edits. Although we are based in the Southeast, we photograph wedding days all over the country: Hawaii, Colorado, Connecticut, Massachusetts, California, Louisiana, etc.

Jennifer was an amazing photographer. She met all of my wants and was with me throughout the whole process of what I wanted. I can’t stress how much you would want her as your photographer. The one thing that caught my eye was her editing skills and the pictures she was able to capture. She will not only be a photographer for our wedding but any other special events that we will have in our new marriage. She is absolutely amazing and I was so happy to have her on our special day.

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.

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.

It honestly rivaled many of our favorite restaurants in NYC. In addition to the food, Chef Jill and her staff were amazing.

Punctual and ready to capture every moment, Heather was loving and passionate about her craft. She listened closely to the details that were important to us, like our Disney-inspired wedding in the Carousel Museum in CT, and made sure to beautifully document all the magical moments, from our engagement photos in NYC's Times Square and Central Park to the carousel at our ceremony. We are thrilled with the final results and couldn't be happier that we chose Olker Wedding Photo to be a part of our wedding.

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 photography is magical! My fiancé and I did an engagement shoot with her in Central Park, and despite the early hours and super hot weather, Hannah was personable, kind, and so much fun to work with! We were so lucky to have been recommended her by a friend, and found that the entire experience was seamless--she knew tons of hidden gems in the park to take us, provided a guide in advance to take the stress out of finding something to wear, and the whole thing flew by so quickly! Within weeks we had the full album of photos and I am STILL in awe at how amazing they turned out! We can't thank Hannah enough and I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for natural, artistic and beautiful photography.

Your ultimate destination for luxury bridal hair and makeup! We are passionate about enhancing the natural beauty of brides who embody elegance, artistry, and romance. Our mission is to empower luxury brides—those 'it girls' who define their unique style and radiate sophistication on their special day.

From the moment they pulled up, I knew my wedding day aesthetic was about to be fire. Their diversity game? Absolutely on point. They didn't just do makeup and hair, they created magic that made every single one of my girls feel like a queen. The vibe was pure luxury, but make it authentic. None of the looks were cookie cutter and each of us got a style that was 100% us, but, the most elevated version of ourselves. We ATE! Talk about Bridal Goals! Getting ready was basically the Instagram-worthy moment of the entire wedding. The energy was immaculate – part spa day, part epic friend hang out, and 100% celebration. They weren't just vendors tho. They were basically honorary bridesmaids at this point. Tip for all my engaged girlies: If you want a team that understands representation, brings next-level skills, and makes you feel like an absolute BOSS on your big day, these are your people. They didn't just do my hair and makeup – they served looks, dropped confidence, and made memories I'll be living for forever. 10/10 would recommend. Oh yes and I forgot to mention they are black & POC owned which was very important to hubby and I. Wanna know how I really feel with The IT Brides? INSANELY OBSESSED!

Fen was a dream to work with during planning, leading up to and on the day of the wedding and after. She was always present yet never once felt in the way of any action, and captured all the best moments. Even over a year later I couldn't find the video, Fen emailed me back in a few hours and was able to assure me not all was lost. I HIGHLY recommend Fen, you wont be disappointed!

She really knows what she is doing. My pictures came out exactly the way I wanted and I can't thank enough Tatiana for that. No doubt she is an expert and would love to hire her multiple times!

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:)

Caz Isaiah - Cinemotion Photo

We’re very happy with our wedding photos! Caz was incredibly responsive throughout the entire process and took the time to understand our vision, and that was very important to us. He and Sheldon delivered more value than we expected, capturing both artistic and documentary-style shots that reflected our day’s emotions and energy, as well as posed friends and family portraits that we are excited to send with our thank you cards. Their professionalism and ease made us feel comfortable and they were ready and willing to be at different locations and change venues including taking photos on a subway ride from Brooklyn, and walking the streets of SoHo. The final photos exceeded our expectations—beautiful, candid, and thoughtfully composed. We were also touched with the short film Caz created, which beautifully captured the essence of our celebration. On top of that, they were generous of their time, even coming early to capture the beginning of our wedding preparations. He is even sending film prints, which is just the kind of personal touch that we will treasure for a lifetime. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for stunning, timeless wedding photos. Ours are truly works of art thanks to Caz and Sheldon!

We LOVED working with Brittany. We had monthly meetings with her for over a year, from the venue search phase to the handoff to our month-of coordinator, and she was so helpful. She helped us with the searches for everything—venue, DJ, photography, day-of coordination, flowers, catering—and provided us timelines and organization tools that were genuinely invaluable. We had very little idea going in exactly what was needed to plan a wedding, but Brittany’s collaboration made us feel very on top of things. She also worked with us to troubleshoot things when issues arose (like our flower provider not following some of our communication requests). And an added bonus is that she’s fun to hang out with lol—we really enjoyed our monthly meetings!! Would absolutely recommend the Venlist (and Brittany specifically)!

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!

Wow, we had such an amazing experience working with The Gathering Florist. Victoria is incredible to work with. She is easy to communicate with and responds promptly to your questions. We loved her personality as well, she is super approachable and fun to collaborate with. She fully captured our mood board, but even greater than we imagined. For context, my brother who works in events helped to curate/elevate our mood board and felt she did a beautiful job! We loved the ambiance she created with the florals and candles at our venue, Giando on the Water. I would 1000 percent recommend her as a florist. Although we didn’t have a coordinator for our wedding, if we did have one, we definitely would have booked her services! Truly a great experience working with her, no notes!

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.

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.
