From our first conversation, LanaGlow made the whole experience feel effortless with their detailed and thoughtful responses. Lana's team really listened to what I wanted and weren't afraid to adjust things based on what actually worked for me, which was huge since I wasn't sure my reference pictures would translate to my face. On the day of my wedding, I felt calm and ready because we had prepared so well beforehand. What I love most is that they delivered that natural but elevated look I was going for without making me feel like I was wearing a mask. Lana and her team treated me like a person, not just another bride, and I couldn't be happier with how I looked. I'd recommend them in a heartbeat if you want to feel like the best version of yourself on your wedding day.

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style

I've taken everything I learned in photo school and used it to influence my wedding photography. The end result? Images that feel effortlessly cool, timeless, and personal. I work in a way that encourages you and your partner to interact with each other and be yourselves, instead of focusing on me and my camera.

Melissa made my special day stress free and fun. I expressed to her we were awkward and didn’t know how to pose and she responded with “I specialize in awkward.” She made us feel so comfortable and photogenic. She went above and beyond because my wedding outfit didn’t come in time and offered to split the session. I can’t wait to work with her again!

Not only was she extremely easy to work with and communicate with, but she is so fun, caring, warm, and passionate. She clearly loves what she does and her passion for bringing beautiful details to life shines through so magically in her work. My bouquet was absolutely breathtaking and my girls’ bouquets were so beyond perfect. The first time my husband and I walked into the ballroom and saw our centerpieces with our floating gold candles, it was like walking into a fairytale. It was so magical and whimsical - exactly what we wanted.

Based in New York City, The Hook Club is one of the tri-state area's most exciting and unique wedding bands.

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!

Their response time is incredibly fast, and their knowledge of music and event flow is outstanding. Tara, who runs the team, is truly the best. She works extremely hard, can find any musician I need, and consistently responds in under five minutes.

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!

After 14 plus years DJing weddings across New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, I know the fear is not just bad music. It is awkward MC moments, dead air, generic playlists, and a dance floor that never connects. My style combines real wedding experience with NYC nightlife instincts: live mixing, clean announcements, calm planning, and room reading that keeps every generation included without making the night feel forced.

Awarded Best of Zola
When my husband and I were searching for DJ's for our wedding, we were immediately impressed when we got to Dan's website. When we met Dan in person at an open house at our venue, the choice was made even easier. Dan represented himself and his company as professional, experienced and polished. He came across as a real and heartfelt guy who is just really passionate about what he loves doing, something we've found rare in our past experiences with DJs. As we began our music journey with Dan, he was consistently in touch with us with reminders, suggestions, playlists, timelines and was always ready, willing and able to take our questions and provide valuable feedback. Dan listened to our needs as a couple and really got to know us so he could make personalized recommendations, such as a private first dance so that we, as introverts, could have a few moments alone on a wonderful but overwhelming day. On the wedding day, Dan made sure every detail was ironed out and made us feel completely at ease throughout the entire process. Our wedding was phenomenal and every guest we spoke to had an amazing time! We would highly recommend Dan for any event and we are confident that he will surpass your expectations!

We worked with Rebeca and Andrew Federico as our wedding photographer in August 2025. From the moment we had our phone consultation with Rebeca and Andrew, we loved their vibes. They seemed calm, natural, and experienced in their talent. They included an engagement photo shoot for us in the months before our wedding day, which was extremely helpful to get comfortable in front of the camera, and for them to get to know us and our personalities. Although it was a cold rainy day, we had so much fun and we came out with creative and natural photos. But of course, the most important part are the wedding photos that Rebeca and Andrew and one of their team members took. They sent a sneak peak within 2 weeks of our wedding, and finished the entire set, which was almost 1000 photos within a few months. These pictures are the most gorgeous and creative photos and they bring out the personalities of my husband and me. Rebeca and Andrew scoped out the property to utilize the best scenes for our photos, took the opportunities to seize the time during the golden hour while the sun was in the perfect position, and indulged us with silly photos we wanted to try out. We had so much fun. They really captured every aspect of the day from getting ready to the dance floor, with all the details in between like our flowers, napkins, decorations, and signature drinks. Rebeca and Andrew were extremely kind and patient with us throughout the day and maintained such calm demeanors so we could stay calm and stress free. They are also very responsive, by text or email, if we had any questions prior to or after the photo shoots Rebeca always replied with the answers we needed. We could not be happier about our choice to work with Rebeca and Andrew, and we are so in love with our wedding photos!

The Sanctuary on Roosevelt Island provided the dreamiest backdrop for our wedding last month! Their entire team went above and beyond for us on our big day. Our friends and family raved about the location, the ambiance, the food, the service. About an hour before our ceremony started, it began to pour outside- and we were meant to have an outdoor ceremony! My husband and I sat in our vintage taxi parked out front of the venue, and watched The Sanctuary staff run around in the torrential downpour to save our ceremony and move everything indoors- and the fact that the rain only put us about 15 minutes behind the original schedule?! I’m still not sure how they managed it. Would also like to send a special shout out to Amelia, who more recently joined the Sanctuary team as event coordinator- she was not part of the team when we first signed out contract, but she proved to be an invaluable resource to us on the day of the wedding. She is a fabulous addition! Alfonso gave us our first tour of the venue that made us fall in love with the space. Frank was so patient and kind and answered all of our questions- and even helped us accommodate a last minute addition guest who was originally too ill to attend our wedding but who luckily recovered well enough to be able to come. Thank you again to the Sanctuary team from the bottom of our hearts for helping make our wedding the most magical and special day of our life!

I was also the personal artist and photographer of the late Iryna Zarutska, whose story touched hearts worldwide.

The team at IBEAUTY GROUP was a pleasure to work with for my wedding day beauty needs. From our first interaction, they were quick to respond, professional in their communication, and made me feel at ease throughout the entire process. On the day of my wedding, there was a lot of chaos, but the IBEAUTY team did not blink an eye and ensured I still felt comfortable and looked stunning. Their work was truly long-lasting and beautiful - I felt like the best version of myself all day long. I cannot recommend IBEAUTY GROUP highly enough for any couple's wedding day beauty services.
