Styled By Nini was a pleasure to work with for my wedding day. Nini’s communication style was responsive and calm, which was so appreciated during the busy planning process, especially as I struggled to find a great stylist who would be in my budget. She was easygoing and collaborative, providing great value for our special day. She even connected me with an excellent makeup artist, taught my Maid of Honor how to properly put on my veil, and executed my desired hairstyle beautifully based on a video and photos I shared with them. I'm so grateful for her professionalism and attention to detail that contributed to making me look beautiful and feel my best!

She listened intently to our vision, worked within the constraints of our budget and had impeccable follow up. Enza delivered all of that and more on our wedding day. We had a "first look" with our ballroom before our guests entered and it was a fairytale. Every detail that we envisioned was brought to life and it truly made our venue gorgeous.

Based in New York City, The Hook Club is one of the tri-state area's most exciting and unique wedding bands. Owned and operated by a tight-knit community of musicians, they are known for their attention to every musical detail and the professionalism they bring to every event. Their unconventional group has mastered the art of creating a great dance party that keeps guests on the dance floor all night and then humming the songs the next day!

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with The Hook Club. Our amazing planner, Greenhouse Events, recommended THC, and we were sold immediately after meeting with Dan. He is super relaxed, nice, and so knowledgable. Dan and THC team made planning super easy for us. They took time to hear about our hopes and helped recommend different band sizes for us. We hadn’t heard of a DJ band before, but loved the idea of some live music with the versatility to play all sorts of music, but our venue wasn’t very big and we also didn’t want to break the bank and hire a huge band. We chose the 4 piece DJ band with singer, sax, drums, and DJ. We knew we LOVED the sax, so we also had the sax play for cocktail hour (shout out to Elijah, who was amazing), and it was one of the best parts of the night. For planning music, they sent out a very detailed and thorough spreadsheet with more songs than one could imagine, and we could rate ones we liked the most, choose ones we definitely wanted or didn't, and choose specific songs for important moments. We met a couple times to review music choices as well. One of our biggest fears with a DJ was that they'd talk too much and be a little annoying, but Dan did a great job as MC, and was very low-key like we asked but announced important moments clearly. Dan and all the musicians had such great energy and got everyone on the dance floor. Our vocalist, Christen, was also amazing — her voice was spectacular, and she was such an amazing performer and got everyone involved in the music and dancing. So many people told us how much they loved the music and the energy, and had never heard of a DJ band but thought it was an amazing concept and the addition of live music over tracks added extra excitement and fun. THC also helped out with lighting (uplights and dance lights), and worked with our fantastic planner and the venue to help us decide the best setup. Ultimately, we loved working with THC. Their DJ-band setup is unique and adds so much variety to your music while allowing for some of the energy that comes from live performers. We danced the night away and had an absolute blast. 100% would recommend THC to anyone!

Awarded Best of Zola
The harpist and violinist were absolutely incredible — truly one of the most magical parts of our entire wedding day. My husband and I were completely in awe, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful and cinematic the music was. It felt like something straight out of a movie, especially with the stunning ambiance of our ceremony location. From the very beginning, the process of choosing music through the company’s website was seamless. There were so many amazing song options to pick from, and we were so happy with our final selections. Hearing them come to life — especially on violin and harp — was beyond words. The musicians played so eloquently and gracefully, and their talent was unmatched. The music added a romantic, emotional, and elegant touch that elevated everything to a whole new level. Communication with the company was excellent. They were quick to respond, always friendly and accommodating, and remained professional and patient — even when unexpected weather challenges came up on the day of the wedding. They were flexible, understanding, and worked with us to make sure everything went smoothly. The quality of the performance was truly a 10 out of 10. Guests were completely blown away, and many told us how unforgettable and moving the ceremony music was. The transitions between songs were smooth and perfectly timed. I would 100% recommend this company to any couple looking to add something special to their ceremony. They are incredibly talented, professional, punctual, and just a dream to work with. We’re so grateful to have had them be part of our big day — they helped make it feel absolutely magical.

Awarded Best of Zola
The short version of this review: if you want the music at your wedding to be awesome and exactly what YOU love to hear, and without cheesey emcee vibes, hire Marcus! Marcus did such an amazing job DJing our wedding, we couldn’t be more thrilled. He is extremely thoughtful with his work. He took careful note of my husband and my musical tastes and preferences, as well as the vibe of our wedding, instead of playing a standard tired playlist. Per our request, he blended in some Latin music seamlessly. The dance floor was full and lively all night long, exactly as we had hoped for! He played songs we hadn’t requested but that we love, leaving me wondering how he could have known so well what to play. He also respected our “do not play” list, as I found out multiple guests requested songs on it and he politely declined. Marcus is very thorough and organized which made working with him so easy- he was on top of all the details, order of events/cues, even reviewed proper name pronunciation with us in advance. The event manager at our venue said she loved working with him and was very impressed. Marcus has such a kind and warm personality, and a really special talent- we feel so lucky that he was part of our big day!

In addition to my bridal work, I’ve participated in New York Fashion Week, collaborating with top designers, and my work has been featured in Glamour and Lafayette magazines. I’m proud to bring that same level of expertise and artistry to every wedding I’m part of. I’m here to make your special day as stress-free and enjoyable as possible.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had both my makeup and hair done by Anastasia, and it was truly an incredible experience. Her team also worked with my mom, my sister, and two of my friends. Everyone arrived on time, and the atmosphere was so cozy and relaxed — it felt like getting ready with close friends. Before the wedding, I did a trial session where we discussed everything in detail and made a few final adjustments. On the big day, I felt absolutely beautiful. What I loved the most is that Anastasia has a very modern style — her hairstyles are contemporary and elegant, and her makeup is fresh and natural. My makeup lasted perfectly all day long without feeling heavy on my skin. I still looked like myself — just enhanced, glowing, and confident. The hair was absolutely stunning: it stayed flawless the entire day, but at the same time felt soft and flexible — no stiff hairspray buildup, no heavy, uncomfortable feeling. I changed my look three times during the day — from soft waves to an elegant updo — and Anastasia stayed by my side through every transition, helping and supporting me. Honestly, her style is simply the best. As a model, I’ve worked with many stylists before, but this experience was truly on another level. The quality of her work, her attention to detail, and the way she made me feel — I haven’t encountered anything like this in a very long time. It was an unforgettable experience, and I’m so grateful I chose her!

It's feeling, and it's found in the whirlwind and the still moments, in heightened emotion and calm, and above all, celebrating what makes you and your partner exactly who you are with the people you choose to surround yourself with. In my work composition serves to frame the feeling, with permission to be raw, outrageous, reserved, and unabashedly yourself. I make photos about the day and not the day about the photos. All couples of all genders, ethnicities, ages, faiths, shapes and abilities, are more than welcome.

Awarded Best of Zola
I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with Ali! She reached out to me on Zola and I am so glad she did. I was impressed with her portfolio and I really loved seeing how she would capture little moments in the weddings she had done. We set up a video call before booking and we clicked. She is very calm and helped with my pre-wedding nerves. She worked with us on a payment plan and she was always very quick to respond to any of my questions. She really listened to what we wanted. She got to the venue early to scout out different shots and came to check in with me a couple of times before we even began taking photos, which I did not expect but was very sweet and considerate of her. When we were taking photos, she really helped to guide the more “posed” photos but she also captured a lot of beautiful candid moments. We had so many guests come up to us and compliment her and that was before we even got the photos back. She sent us our sneak peeks the next day and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. She captured so many beautiful moments and her style is exactly what we wanted. Nothing felt “overly edited” just perfectly genuine. I cannot recommend Ali enough. I cannot wait to see the full gallery of photos because I know they will be nothing short of perfect.

We booked The Sanctuary as our venue back in 2023 when they were just re-opening, and we have zero regrets! Every New Yorker should have this place on its radar! The very first day we were there with Fonsi, we knew we were in good hands! Everything was perfect: the pier set-up for the ceremony, the open bar, grazing table and passed hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour and finally the dessert table and pizza stations for the after party. The food was AMAZING and cooked on-site so it was as fresh as it can be! And then they seamlessly cleared out the cocktail area and transformed it into the dancefloor while we were all enjoying our dinner buffet in a separate tented pavillion. Shout out to Amelia, Frank, Artur, Cat, and the rest of their wonderful team!

Kenny Fiesta was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very start, his communication style was thorough, low-pressure, and reliable. He connected with each vendor, the venue, and key people in our wedding to ensure all were aligned and knew who he was, how to work with him, and what to expect throughout the night. Kenny's experience as a DJ was truly top-notch - he kept the party going all night long and made sure the music and energy were perfect for our special day. He worked with our playlist and captured our vision for the day. It was a PARTY. Kent was a joy to work with, keeping things low-pressure throughout the process but covering every detail. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ, and we highly recommend Kenny Fiesta to any couple looking for an experienced, professional, and fun-loving addition to their wedding day or their event. We would 100% work with him again in the future. In the end, he felt like family.
