Skylark Music 

5.0

Beacon, NY
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $800

Jesse and Justin have been playing music together since they met performing in a band at Disneyland in 2001. After moving to Beacon, NY around the same time, it made sense to start an official wedding music business to share their love of music with some of the many happy couples getting married in the Hudson Valley. One thing they love about playing music for weddings is the variety that is required of them. Every gig is different and they all happen on one of the happiest days of the clients' lives!

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Skylark to perform the ceremony and cocktail hour music for our wedding and they were amazing.! We were able to communicate with them efficiently and hash out our “music vision.” Unfortunately, due to issues with our shuttle buses our wedding had to be delayed by an hour and a half, but luckily Justin and Jesse were there to keep the guests that had arrived entertained with their music while they waited. I also appreciated that they learned the songs that I envisioned my bridal party and I walking down the aisle to, which helped make the moment even more magical. My now husband and I were very happy with their services and would hire them again!

Awarded Best of Zola
Justin was lovely to work with from the start. He was booked for another wedding, but he paired us up with Rob, an associate DJ of his. Both Rob and Justin were so so fun to work with. Rob took the time to text or set up whatever zoom calls we felt we needed. For the actual day, Rob was amazing. We had dinner service, reception, and "after party". Robs killed it with his flow between songs, and was incredibly accommodating and flexible if we had any requests in the moment, and was able to dodge or handle any "questionable" song requests that came his way. We knew that he always put my husband and I's wishes first. We also had multiple people comment on how good the DJ was during the reception, and after the fact! He also went above and beyond to pull heroics the day of to get some of our DIY spot lighting set up that wasn't set up the night prior. Rob was incredible to work with, and just as fun to chat with. Will miss working with them, but absolutely will be following their journeys and would use them again in a heartbeat! So thankful for Justin and Rob!

Scott was excellent every step of the way! Whenever I had any questions, comments, or concerns, he was prompt in his response. He was also highly accomodating, even when I kept changing my mind on various song choices or processional order (hee hee). My husband and I love jazz and swing music and the music boutique fit the bill perfectly. Having live music at the wedding was phenomenal and the guests absolutely loved it. We got multiple compliments about how having live music during the ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner was so nice. They arrived early and everything was set up smoothly.

You will not regret choosing Anecdote Photography! Eddie was one of the first vendors I booked after seeing photos from a friend's wedding! He was so professional, helpful, and kind throughout the whole planning process. Eddie responded quickly to every email and his dedication to each and every detail was truly AMAZING. He made my husband and I feel so comfortable, especially since we are not used to being in the spotlight! Our families can not stop talking about how incredible the pictures turned out.

I believe love is love and happily photograph couples of all backgrounds, orientations, religions and gender expressions. I aim to create authentic and emotive images for my clients and edit true to color so the work will be timeless. My personality is friendly and warm, which helps make my couples feel at ease and open up in front of the camera. I donate $100 from every wedding day package to a non profit organization (either the ACLU, End the Backlog or the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation) because I believe paying it forward in honor of love is an excellent first step into marriage.

Jenna was recommended to us by another photographer and it was such a pleasure to work with her! We greatly appreciated how much she wanted to know us and our personalities in advance of our wedding day. We ended every zoom call or email exchange feeling confident in our decision to work with her. The weather on our wedding day wasn’t very cooperative, but Jenna and team were on the lookout for any break in the rain so that we could go up to the roof and get a few pictures. And she totally nailed them—they are some of our favorite pictures from the day. Jenna and team made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera and also captured some incredible candids. If you’re looking for a fun, positive, and easy-to-work with photographer—Jenna is the right pick!

DJ Lou Paris 

5.0

Kingston, NY
  • DJ
  • Starts at $3,000

DJ Lou Paris is a Wedding DJ out of the Hudson Valley area of NY, providing an extraordinary service to my clients. From gathering all the important information about your wedding in detail to having emergency plans in place to make sure there are no interruptions. I go the extra mile in everything that is done.

My wife and I had Lou DJ our upstate wedding and it was more than we could have dreamed of. From the beginning, he was nothing but professional. He met with us multiple times prior to the event to go over music selection, flow of the ceremony day etc. His website was very easy to use and allowed us to have a large role in our music selection for the day, even for the reception dance portion. Everything was reviewed at least 3 times to ensure there were no hiccups, and also to make sure we wouldn't have to worry about anything on the ceremony day. On the day, Lou came in very early to setup and his equipment was extremely unobtrusive and sounded amazing. From the ceremony to reception (and especially cocktail hour), the sound was fantastic and there was not a single hiccup (even with an outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour!). His flow through the reception was so smooth - and as a former college radio DJ, his music choice to fill in the gaps between the 'must plays' we sent him were impeccable!!! If you have a big heart for music and want it to be the backbone of any great party while having one of the most professional guys out there - Lou is 100% your guy. Thanks again Lou!!!!

They are highly organized and professional. Our wedding day was truly magical! Our guests had a wonderful time! We also really appreciate how the staff working on the day of our wedding ensured that my husband and I ate well (and remembered to eat as we interacted with our guests). The food served was delicious and we loved our wedding cake! Another great thing about booking the wedding at Diamond Mills is that the hotel is attached to the wedding venue - it was very convenient for us and our guests! We received a good discount for our hotel block. The wedding package they offer at Diamond Mills Hotel is truly well-rounded! Beautiful venue with indoor and outdoor spaces, catering, open bar, wedding cake, and supportive and amazing staff to help you plan your wedding and ensure that everything runs smoothly during the day of the wedding all for a reasonable price!

You know that all encompassing feeling when you’re revisiting a vivid memory? You can smell the fresh air, feel the way the sun hits your face just so, hear the voice of the loved one next to you, remember the joke that they delivered and instantly you’re laughing all over again. That magic is what I hope to capture as your photographer. It’s my job to hold those moments in time so that they don’t have to fade. You’ll forever be able to revisit the moment, see the exact way they smiled, revisit that incredible sunset, relive the memory and turn back time.

I can not articulate how happy I am to have found Jess to capture our wedding. She was extremely professional throughout the process and yet somehow now I feel like we are best friends?! She made the planning process seamless and we were happy to have gotten to know her during our engagement shoot. Then at the wedding - she was ON! She kept our families in line AND ON TIME, which is not a small task. She even helped coordinate a surprise with my husband that left me speechless! Our wedding was all about the details and she absolutely captured that. AND THE PHOTOS! Aside from being a wonderful person to spend the day with, Jess is a true artist! The photos are absolutely gorgeous, and my husband and I feel SO LUCKY that we get to cherish them forever.

Jim and Sarah of Black Walnut Farm have created a haven for love. Every inch of their 34 acres is carefully curated for a truly magical experience. As Matt and I approached our forest ceremony enclave, filled with our loved ones, the happy tears were instant thanks to their attention to detail. We chose Black Walnut Farm, after exploring numerous venues, because of their perfectly decorated barn complete with 4 foot disco ball, manicured gardens, equally charming farmhouse to stay the weekend with family, smore station, popcorn machine, audio guestbook, and of course their property manager, Miss Lily, the barn cat. What we didn’t expect to be included in our wedding package was the amount of care, energy, support, and love we felt from Jim, Sarah, and the staff at Black Walnut Farm as they effortlessly managed the most memorable day of our lives. Thank you for making our dreams come true and for being the best wedding venue we could ask for! There is no place like Black Walnut Farm.

When I’m not photographing freaking awesome people, you can find me sitting on the couch in my husband's pajama pants, drinking coffee, snuggling my pets, and editing. Coffee and snuggles are my two primary love languages. My favorite Netflix binges are The Office, Shameless, and Friday Night Lights. Clear eyes, full heart. Speed date: I’m obsessed with Vermont, avocados, dark chocolate, and cats. Pinterest is only my friend for recipes. My favorite fair food is fried dough but I’m allergic to it - what kind of cruel joke is that? I didn’t study photography in college (gasp), but I did study music, and that kind of relates...right?

Erica is AMAZING!!! From our very first consultation call with her, my fiancé and I knew she was the best choice for our engagement shoot and wedding. We laughed and chatted and felt comfortable right off the bat. I have been told that you end up being around your wedding photographer more than almost anyone else on your wedding day - so it's super important you feel comfortable around them, so I was thrilled to feel like I have known her for years just over a Zoom call! Then, she managed to fit us in her schedule last minute, and drive over 3 hours to us in the Greater Boston area to shoot at the Arnold Arboretum! Talk about going above and beyond!!!! She frolicked around the park in the cold with us, LITERALLY climbing in and out of bushes and trees to get these gorgeous shots. You couldn't tell by the photos... but I was super duper nervous going into the shoot. I’m not a huge fan of my picture being taken… and the thought a professional camera made me feel extremely anxious. But Erica was so kind, and calm, and made me laugh and feel comfortable literally immediately!!! My fiancé and I are sooooo awkward too, but she expertly posed us in many different ways that make us look like pros LOL! A day that I had so much anxiety for… ended up being such a blast for both of us, truly. JUST THE SHOOT IN ITSELF will be a wonderful memory we will cherish forever. And then she got us the photos in record time, I couldn't believe it! So fast!!! And to no surprise, they were all incredible. It's so hard to choose a favorite, I have like 10 haha. I am beyond excited to have her shoot our wedding in the future. Five stars for EVERYTHING! Seriously. She is so incredibly talented!!!!

Dylan was so awesome to work with, and took the stress out of picking songs for my wedding! We were even lucky enough to coordinate a private last dance to one of our favorite songs, AND the most HYPE last dance to "Love Story" by Taylor Swift. All of my guests loved the music he played throughout the night. There was a healthy mix of oldies and newbies, some of my personal favorites, and a few surprises. I was dancing all night long with my loved ones. Searching for a DJ was hard, because I didn't quite know how to go about it. From the beginning, I was clear that I was having a Greek Orthodox wedding, and during the reception we do a few traditional dances. When Dylan told me he had experience working Greek weddings, I was thrilled! Dylan will work with you to make sure your night is memorable from start to finish.

Cullen Creations is a wedding design company in The Catskills of New York. They are able to cover every aspect of your wedding vision from florals, to rentals, to set up and break down and more. The team at Cullen Creations only take on a limited amount of events per year to helps ensure each of their clients get the attention and care they deserve.

I ordered Cullen Creations services for flowers and decor set up and rental of some of their inventory items. I spoke with Heather once or twice and emailed with her before the weekend of the wedding. As I continued to adjust my order over time she provided updated spreadsheet showing new quote. It was very helpful so I could meet my minimum and our personal wedding budget. She also provided pictures of items that I was seeking which was helpful to make decision on my final order. Heather and her husband arrived the day before to drop off games, candy glass containers and charger plates. We briefly met day before wedding to confirm the set up of ceiling items. She had my ideas set up on the laptop so we could easily finalize details in person on location. They put together the massive cart and put the fabric to layover the top I provided, so we could decorate it as a candy station, and they also put up the ceiling decor I provided which included 3 large disco balls and long streamers. They previously spoke with the venue to ensure their equipment used for set up would be acceptable to use in the venue. They worked diligently and made my colorful disco wedding dream come true. They also provided flowers for the wedding include wrist corsages for the mother of bride and groom, boutonnieres, and bouquets for the wedding party. I asked for colorful and tropical and the outcome was glorious! It was a beautiful splash of color against the lake backdrop. Heather brought all the flowers the morning of to the girls get ready room and had them clearly labeled and explained how to hold/ wear the items. They also set up all the ceremony flowers on the pillars I rented from them. It came out stunning! The flowers and pillars were easily moved to the reception later on for decor in the venue space. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Cullen Creations.

She's so so talented and such a pleasure to work with. Anyone who gets to work with her is the luckiest!

I'm Carroll, a photographer for those who love to live a happy, fun life! I'm married to the most amazing man and together we hike, travel, eat a lot of Chinese food, and watch WAY too many Friends reruns (which explains my crazy love for coffee). I'm also a fur-mom to the two most adorable (and spoiled) little fur-babies, Levi and Chloe. The more you get to know me, you’ll realize how much I love the simple moments of life and to make the most of it all!

Carroll captured our elopement in Grand Teton National Park. Seriously, she's absolutely amazing! Carroll has this incredible attention to detail that truly sets her apart. From the moment we met up with her, she made us feel so comfortable and at ease. It was like hanging out with a friend rather than posing for photos. She helped us scout out the most beautiful spots for pictures weeks leading up to the wedding and was so easy to communicate with. What impressed us the most was how she prioritized our wants and needs. She made sure to communicate with our family members in a professional and respectful way to ensure we got all the pictures we wanted. Carroll truly went the extra mile to make our day special. We're so grateful for her expertise and the breathtaking photos and memories she captured for us. If you're ever in need of a photographer, I highly recommend Carroll. She's absolutely the best!

Run - don't walk - to work with Jasmin! I'm eternally glad that we had Jasmin to help us create a wonderful wedding day. Jasmin is extremely talented, thoughtful, and kind, which I learned are essential but not common qualities you need in your wedding vendors. While I shared my ideas and inspiration with her, the day-of creations were so much better than I could have imagined. She managed to capture our vibe so much so that I left a lot of final detailed decisions completely up to her. Everyone was complimenting our bouquets and centerpieces - even the staff at our venue who have seen plenty of different arrangements. Our table numbers were in perfect tiny little pumpkins. With our wedding in October, Jasmin managed to capture the "feel" of leaves changing colors and even included a variety called "Coffee Break" which tied into our coffee-related hashtag. Jasmin also designed our photobooth backdrop which was a huge hit. It's this level of detail and attention that Jasmin brings to her work that is unbelievable. Jasmin was at our venue early to set-up, and then returned again to pick up the flowers & decor late at the end of the night at which time my parents were thrilled to finally meet her. Leading up to the wedding, she was very communicative via e-mail and was responding promptly to all my questions. I 1000% enthusiastically recommend her to any future couples - do not wait to reach out to her!

Cappy Hotchkiss Photography

Beacon, NY
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000

I grew up in Amagansett, NY, one town away from Montauk, hanging out at the ocean, riding horses, and photographing my plastic Breyer horse models in different scenarios with my little crappy film camera, always searching for the perfect light. I have since moved on to photographing people with better equipment and I still always search for that perfect light. I now live in the lovely Hudson Valley after a long stint in NYC and Brooklyn where I trained under fashion and editorial photographers before starting my own photography business almost 20 years ago. Full disclosure, I'm a little scared of the ocean.

Cappy was a pleasure to work with from the very first interaction I had with her. She is full of joy and excitement about her work and it really comes through. We are extremely happy with both the engagement photos and our wedding photos—especially the photos of our reception. She captured the joy and excitement of the day so incredibly well. Looking through the albums allowed us to relive the day together and gave us so many fun snaps of our guests enjoying the party. Neither of us are comfortable in front of a camera, but she somehow managed to help us relax and enjoy the experience, making the pictures even more beautiful. Cappy was there for every important moment of our day without being overwhelming. We all laughed with her during the posed shots of our family and bridal party and she managed to somehow work her way around the dance floor seamlessly to get the most amazing pictures of the party. Being able to see these and share them with family and friends has brought us so much joy and laughter. Cappy is incredibly talented, fun, and easy to work with—zero drama and all smiles. She was on time with everything, including the turnaround of the albums. She brought a second photographer with her to our wedding, Teresa, who was also amazing and they made a GREAT team. We would recommend her work to anyone!

I have been happily collaborating with the BVI team on a variety of events for 5 years now, primarily weddings. I am referred to the potential client by the BVI team, and I work with the client and the venue from there on in. It is always a success! Nothing makes me happier than to have a few BVI events in my DJ calendar. The team here are great! Pleasant professionals, that know how to deliver the best experience for the client. They look after their partnering vendors, bringing you in as part of the team, and (personally) part of the family. Technical & Logistics: Whether the event is inside the facilities or the acreage, all DJ needs are met. BVI works with local event/staging companies that provide the needed risers, DMX control panels, tasteful illumination, redundant power grids, quality dance floors, and beautiful tents. Setup & teardown is fluid, with multiple access and egress points throughout the facilities. Depending on the size of the event, rooms may be available at the BVI if you choose to stay for the night. Alternatively, having access to pool house showers and changing rooms, give the option to prepare yourself professionally for the event ahead. The team at BVI are a fun bunch who deliver the best of experiences. I look forward to our next collaboration! Stephen

Words truly cannot describe how incredible Kristen is - as a photographer and a person. As soon as we met Kristen for our engagement shoot, we knew she was our photographer… forever! She has such a talent for capturing who you are as a couple in such a natural way. On our wedding day, she went above and beyond from the moment she arrived: making staying on schedule feel effortless, making sure that my complicated dress was entirely zipped and buttoned, pinning boutonnieres, fixing hair pieces, ensuring that the ceremony was set up perfectly- and, most of all, making everyone feel so comfortable and at home. I truly felt as though I had my very good friend with me all day. During our reception, she had a sneak preview of photos rotating on her tablet - everyone was absolutely floored by how amazing her photos were and by how quickly she was able to make that happen. When she could have been taking a break, she took the opportunity to get us outside when it wasn’t raining to take some amazing intimate pictures in front of the venue with lanterns that she had brought herself (and that we absolutely loved!) Then, the next day, we received a sneak preview of 40 photos that had us in happy tears! Kristen’s incredible work ethic is matched by her personal touch. It’s her ability to build a relationship that is absolutely amazing. She has a warmth and a kind spirit that is instantly felt by everyone. Again, going above and beyond, she sent us a gift package when we signed our contract, and a beautiful and very thoughtful year-end gift that we will treasure forever. We love Kristen, and we can’t wait to work with her again! Hiring Kristen will be the best vendor decision you will make :)

We absolutely love the way our wedding photos came out. Sarah is so creative and has such an artistic eye which made our pictures unique and very cool. She was so awesome to work with. She really cares about her work and her clients and it really shows. In addition to being a great photographer, she is very sweet and genuine. We felt so comfortable with her which makes a huge difference! Not to mention, a photographer that can make you smile and laugh makes for some pretty great pictures! Her communication was clear and quick from the very beginning, which is super important in the wedding planning process. She really listened to what we wanted and what we didn’t want.

Hi! I’m Julia, middle name Margo, a film school dropout and music buff who wants to make your wedding look like art. I'm here to represent diversity in the couples I work with and weddings I shoot (love is love), to give you something hyper-shareable that will instantly transport you in space and time for the rest of your lives, and to make you cry upon watching. The crying is very important. Bear with me on this analogy, but basically I like my wedding films like I like my salads: raw, organic, a little bit of quirk and flare, and consumed alongside great music. If this sound pretty good to you, have a look at my work and get in touch!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were on the fence about getting a videographer, partially because it seemed unnecessary and partially because we were worried that we would feel uncomfortable having a camera follow us around. But we met with Julia (Margo Sees Stars), and ultimately decided it was worth the risk. We could not be happier! Although Julia herself was booked for our wedding day, her colleague Mel was fantastic--she was friendly, unobtrusive, worked great with our photographer, and really put us with ease. And Julia's editing ability is off the charts. We opted for the package with a short teaser as well as a longer video, and both brought us to tears. We are so happy that we went with Margo Sees Stars for our special day. You will not be disappointd if you do the same!

She’s wonderful and so pleasant! I got my makeup and hair done for my friend’s wedding/reception that went on the whole day (9am-11pm) and my hair and makeup did not budge! I’m so impressed with her professionalism and quality of work! I got a half up/half down hairstyle for medium hair and full glam for the wedding for reference.

We were so lucky to have someone recommend Lilysh to us for our wedding florals in the Catskills. Although I had a vision for what I wanted the flowers to look like, I am certainly not a flower connoisseur, so wanted to find a professional who I could trust to understand and execute my vision and Liliya was the perfect person to do just that. Her timing and communications were perfect, Including plenty of mockups and vision boards during our preliminary meetings, and continued conversations leading up to the big day. Plus - I love that she works with in season/local blooms, in addition to other sustainability efforts. Photo Credit: The Lovewigs

I’m the self-declared winner of “most likely to hear someone’s life story in unexpected places.” Whether it’s an antique shop owner telling me about her and her late husband’s favorite meal from their Italian vacation 40 years ago, or a fellow TJ Maxx customer recalling how she met her best friend of 17 years in a shared hospital room, I listen. And not a polite listen, but an I really give a shit listen. At the core of my being, I’m story obsessed. It’s why I was an English major in college and why I fell in love with photography. If there is a story to be heard, I will listen. And if there's a story to be told, I'll tell it.

Your wedding is a day that is filled with a wide range of emotions. A new beginning comes with more than just happiness. There is fear of the new, letting go of the past, the feeling of accomplishment from parents and loved ones and of course the excitement and joy in deciding to take a life long adventure with someone you love. My goal is to capture all of these emotions for you, so you can cherish and relive them for many years to come.

Working with Joe was a blessing i didn’t know i needed until i found it. From the time i got engaged i always knew i wanted a videographer but kept convincing myself i could live without. But in the 11th hour i knew i needed one and along came Joe ! After lots of research & by the lucky stars Joe happened to be available within the 3 months before my wedding. From the very beginning Joe was professional, easy to talk too and so so easy to work with. He made my wedding day so smooth and easy & i never had to question anything the whole entire day, he even worked so well with my photographer who he’d never met before. I truly feel so blessed to have had Joe be apart of my wedding & if i could do it all over again i would 100% book him all over again. Thank you Joe so much for making my dreams come true !

The Villa Roma is perfect grounds for a magical marriage and has a treasure trove of options to help make your day one you’ll never forget. Our Clubhouse offers a truly fabulous and elegant venue for an affair to remember. Months and sometimes years are spent making your wedding day special, way too much time to let it rush by. Let us help your friends and your family enjoy this special occasion with you and with each other at The Villa Roma Resort. From pools to spa services, tennis to golf, dance halls to bowling, we have it all. This isn’t just the place for a one night event, it’s the place for your ultimate wedding destination for a weekend worth of wedding fun with everyone you love in one place.

The Villa Roma truly offers a fully customizable bridal package. We were allowed to bring our own decor as well as borrow some too. You have several choices on ceremony locations. The Villas are a bit outdated and we had some plumbing issues, however maintenance was quick to respond. The reception hall is very nice and large, you can fit 100 people no problem. Again, fully customizing settings, decor and table placements. Cheryl is the events coordinator for the entire resort. Since she is in charge of all the events, she definitely has a full plate. If you are looking for a day of coordinator that can walk you through each second of the day, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to hire outside the Villa. If you are a type A planner, it would be my recommendation that you frequently email and coordinator with the team at the Villa. Cheryl was very accommodating and even moved our ceremony location an hour before starting, due to concerns with the weather. Alicia, who is the head bartender, stepped in and helped decorate, helped direct staff during the wedding day and she made the best signature drinks ever! She even popped in at our after party for more congrats! If you’re organized and know what you want, the possibilities are endless here. The views are beautiful, the food fantastic and the wait staff very helpful. I would recommend this venue.

I've been a professional photographer since 2016 but really I've been invested in photography since I was 15 years old. My love for documenting moments came from a desire to capture my own life and that of my friends using disposable cameras to using flip phone cameras and point and shoot digital cameras on beach trips with friends. I have used writing, art, and photo to document my life and it is an incredibly special thing to be able to share that with my clients.

Nina was a pleasure to work with. We hired her to photograph our wedding in upstate NY and the whole experience was such a pleasure. We are both pretty shy and uncomfortable in front of a camera, and our wedding was as casual as they come, and Nina fit right into that. I feel like I found a best kept photographer secret and am so grateful we chose her!

We will be there to make sure you’re picture perfect!

I had a vision for my wedding day to accentuate my long hair – soft, glamorous waves similar to an Old Hollywood look. If this is the look you're going for as well, you likely quickly discovered that this is a much more difficult look to achieve than you think. Better yet, most of the professionals who have perfected their technique charge well over 500 (one even quoted me 900) for the wedding day look and that didn't include a trial. I am all for paying vendors what they deserve for their skills and talent, but it felt so unattainable. But beyond that, these stylists booked up far too quick to even get on their books. Some others I was able to get trials with simply didn't have the skill to achieve the soft Hollywood style. I went to Coven for a haircut and met Alexis and ironically struck up a conversation about my wedding. She was inquiring about what kind of look I was going for and we ended up booking a trial for glam waves. When I say I was beyond surprised and overjoyed leaving my trial – and the wedding day?! I could not say enough amazing things about Lex. She even washed and styled my hair before my rehearsal dinner the day prior to the wedding (separate cost) so the amount of product in my hair was exactly what we wanted to work with on the wedding morning. She is the kindest, most professional soul with the talent to match. And as it is a very important factor in the process of wedding planning, the pricing is reasonable and attainable. The amount of compliments I get on my hair to this day anytime someone sees a wedding photo, and I will forever recommend Alexis and her team at Coven!! Don't hesitate to reach out and book for your big day – you won't be disappointed. Note: I did my trial in the salon and Alexis assistant came to us on the wedding day.

Hello! My name is Christine and I love weddings. I have been photographing weddings since 2005 and the more I do it, the more I love it. I also love chocolate, binge-worthy television and Betty White so much, I named my dog after her.

Dear Prospective Couples, In the summer of 2017, I had the opportunity to hire Christine Merson for my wedding. Besides the decision to marry my husband, she was the best decision of the day. If you have the opportunity to hire this talented professional I would recommend it. You will not be disappointed. Christine planned out the timeline for the entire event with me a week before the big day. Christine is a wonderful listener and was able to provide insightful suggestions to make sure the day was a stress-free as possible. Because of her years of experience, her advice really changed the course of the event in positive ways. Moments before the outdoor ceremony, the skies opened up and there was a downpour. The venue switched the ceremony to inside. Christine and her second photographer adapted to the situation as if that was the way the ceremony was originally planned. My dad was recovering from major surgery the day of the wedding. My father-in-law and godmother were also recovering from medical issues. Four days before the wedding, my husband came down with a nasty virus. Christine and her employee were able to capture everyone with a smile and with their best foot forward. Christine captured so many special and intimate moments of my wedding day without being intrusive. I will cherish each documented memory for years to come. If you choose to work with Christine, I am sure you will feel the same way. Best wishes!

Kristin and Demi were fabulous to work with. From our first trial, the vibes were relaxed and fun. My makeup wasn’t quite what I was looking for on my first trial and Demi really listened to the feedback I gave and blew me away on the second try. They listened to my concerns about sensitive skin and really made me feel comfortable the whole time. I don’t typically wear makeup either, and originally came in with no real idea of how I wanted to look, so I know I wasn’t the easiest customer either. They were fabulous with my family and friends too, catering to several different styles. My hair stayed in place all night despite wind and rain and a lot of dancing and my husband told me my makeup still looked fabulous at the after party!

They answered our questions quickly, and were extremely flexible and helpful the week of our wedding. We were able to bring up boxes earlier in the week, set up the day before our wedding, and had private access to the grounds/taproom on our wedding day.

Middletown, NY
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500

Rebecca has been working as a professional photographer for over 10 years. She began with a small film camera, taking photos at her favorite concerts. As she grew, so did her unique style and her passion. She attended the Academy of Art in San Francisco, Ca. and obtained a BA in Advertising Photography. Over the past 10 years she has had the opportunity to photograph events in places such as Portland, Or., San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Monterey, Ca., Washington DC, Florida and now New York City. She frequently travels for her photography and loves every moment.

My wife and I used Rebecca for both our engagement and wedding photos because of how easy to work with and enjoyable the photo shoots were. Not to mention how gorgeous all her work turns out! We’re both camera shy people but this was the most pain-free and happy experience I’ve ever had in front of a camera. Rebecca is great with making sure her client’s needs are met but is also good at going with the flow and making the environment/setting work for her. If I have any other life events that need to be photographed, I know who my only call would be!

Hi, Thanks for reading! Here's my photography short story: 2017, after 13 years of teaching, I said goodbye to the classroom and pursued Olympic weightlifting photography- my company was Everyday Lifters. Shortly after, I launched my wedding business. The Long Version: Weightlifting has taken me to places like Turkmenistan, Germany, & across the country! The weightlifters started getting married, and along the way, I received training to advocate for diverse bodies as a photographer. During this time of transition, I started taking documenting courses through the International Center of Photography and work on documenting local stories.

Viviana is kind, charismatic, and warm on top of being a professional with a wonderful eye. She made our engagement photos and wedding photos magical. It rained on our big day and she took it in stride and created magical ethereal images I will treasure for forever. She is organized, easy to work with, and during the chaos of planning a wedding working with her will be an oasis

  • Starts at $3,000

Planned Perfectly Hudson Valley is a floral and event planning company bringing a breath of fresh air to the Hudson Valley community. We embrace a genuine passion for flowers paired with an extensive background in event operations resulting in a memorable experience for couples.

After our first phone call, I knew Planned Perfectly was the florist for Joey and I. She was so kind and helpful throughout the entire process. As a client that didn’t know much about florals, she walked me through everything and sent me many designs for me to look at. Her thoughtful nature and artistic touch allowed her design florals that truly matched our wedding theme and our personalities. Our bouquets were STUNNING— but I can’t say enough about the boutineers (with hops!), the arch, and my floral crown. I decided last minute that I would love a floral crown, and without hesitation, she created the most perfect headpiece. The day of, she was so warm and inviting and you can clearly see that she puts her heart and soul into everything she creates. I can’t say enough about my experience with Ali and Planned Perfectly!

It’s Katie if you haven’t guessed already! I’m a photographer in the Hudson Valley. My goal is to give you the newest best friend you didn’t ask for and an incredible memory you get to keep forever. I live for the giggles, full heart felt moments and even shed a tear or two at almost every wedding I attend (just because I am so freaking happy). I can’t help but be so deeply intertwined in the moment that I get lost in the love and magic of it all.

I would HIGHLY recommend Katie. She travelled relatively far for my wedding but was energetic, easy to work with and willing to try anything to make our day special! She was timely, easy to contact and went above and beyond for my husband and I. 10/10 cannot say enough good things!

Welcome! I'm Anita. I aim to freeze moments in time, ensuring they never fade away. Picture this: the exact curve of a smile, the hues of an unforgettable sunset, the ability to relive a cherished memory and rewind time. I value creating a safe haven for every facet of your humanity. Whether you're camera-shy or uncertain about interacting with a stranger, I strive to make the process comfortable. Let's not just capture moments; let's craft an experience where, perhaps, we'll both discover a new friend in the making.

I had hired a photographer for budgetary reasons and about two weeks before my wedding panicked because I wanted another style of photography. Anita literally saved the day, thank god she was available! She worked so flexibly with the other photographer, capturing some of my absolute favorite photos of the entire day. I cannot recommend her enough!

Since then, the band has performed at hundreds and hundreds of concerts, weddings, festivals, parties, kids birthday parties, and various other kinds of family oriented events. We have an extensive songlist of over 300 songs, drawing from all styles of music, including traditional folk/bluegrass, as well as classic rock, pop, jazz and country. The band has also released 3 full length albums of original music, ranging from progressive bluegrass/newgrass instrumentals to goofy kids songs.

Awarded Best of Zola
All of our guests commented that the music at our wedding was lovely and really tied the whole event together. Our venue did not allow DJ's or amplified sound and Astrograss had no problem playing everything acoustically. They were really great communicating before our event. They learned 5 songs at our request and let us pick plenty others for them to play from their extensive repertoire. They even coordinated with our friend (who is a singer) who wanted to sing something for us which ended up being one of the highlights of the night.
