Emerson Avenue 

4.8

North Oaks, MN
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $3,500

There’s dancing in the streets of the Twin Cities! Emerson Avenue is a high-energy, horn-driven, classic rock band that hails from Minnesota’s Twin Cities. You’ll hear sounds that are heavily rooted in rock, soul, and funk, with classic tracks from bands like Earth Wind & Fire, Chicago, Aretha Franklin, Bee Gees, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Chaka Khan, Amy Winehouse, Prince, and many more!

I booked Emerson for my wedding in 2017 after finding out about them from a mutual friend. I was able to customize the songs I was interested in and they learned something new just for my reception. A year later they had an opening for a trumpet player and the rest is history!

the suite seat 

5.0

  • Beauty professional
  • Serves North Oaks, MN

One of my favorite parts of working with brides is putting to rest all of their fears about why they might not be able to have the style they’re envisioning to complete their look. Hair too fine, not long enough, won’t hold a curl… I’ve heard it all. And I love the look on my bride’s face when we work together to make her “impossible” vision come to life. I consider it a high honor to style a bride for a day in which she’ll be memorialized in photos for all time. When you’re in the suite seat, i promise you’ll love what you see in those photos. Enough about me. Let’s talk about your hair!

Kristy was responsive and easy to communicate with. She listened to my desires and wrote detailed messages with hair inspiration, including pictures and links to trusted brands for accesories. I loved hanging with her while getting ready. She is easy to talk to and super kind. She worked efficiently and made it look easy, pulling off the exact look we were going for. From a special touch at the trial with a little vase of flowers to arriving on time and in good spirits, I felt that she really enjoyed being a part of my wedding experience. I highly recommend Kristy at The Suite Seat, she really builds relationships and is so talented!

The. Perfect. Band. Hands down the best return on our wedding "investment." For many of our guests, the band was THE highlight of the day—and I think it says everything that I'm not the least bit offended by that. Seriously amazing musicians. The bandleader, Kyle, was an absolute legend to work with. I've heard from several friends/fam who called him after our wedding that he went above and beyond to help them find their second-choice band because the Hitmen were, sadly, already booked. He's just the most lovely person. Talented in his own right and, I must say, surrounded onstage by some of the best singers and players this side of the Mississippi. Their equipment produced incredible sound quality, even though the space wasn't designed for great acoustics. Plus, when we got a late start to our reception, the band called seamless song-selection audibles. If I had a time machine, one reason I'd do my wedding day again would be to relive the dance party the Hitmen threw.

We’re passionate about meaningful moments, striking designs, and the behind-the-scenes details that make it all come together. Our team sets the stage and orchestrates the flow so you can simply enjoy the experience, stress-free.

Awarded Best of Zola
In my opinion, you couldn't possibly imagine a better wedding coordinator than Kastina (and her entire team)! She is everything you could hope for: ultra proactive, on top of everything, asks you questions you didn't consider thinking of, and does it with a level of warmth, compassion, and genuine interest that makes you feel like you're her only client. It's clear that this is her passion, and she's truly GREAT at it! I booked Kastina for "day of" support (which is really month of support), and also used her to help coordinate some ad hoc items throughout the months leading up to our wedding. Working with Kastina is easy and straightforward, she has a very reasonable hourly price she will charge you, and will take things off your plate you don't want to deal with (like finding a vendor to bring in a stage, or conducting a design consultation to help you organize your scattered thoughts). She's got a network of great people she's connected to, is quick to help make recommendations, and moves efficiently to make it happen. Perhaps best of all, working with Kastina truly feels like having an extra friend around on your wedding day. She's a lovely person, an impressive professional, and a total rockstar human being. You will not regret choosing to work with her!

Like many people, I spent 10 years within corporate America and although I am thankful for my experience, it wasn't feeding my soul. I can be honest and say that I learned so much- my customer service skills, high-level organizational & strategy skills, and my overall work ethic comes directly from my experience within a regular ol' 9-5. However, I've been able to pair what I learned the last 10 years with my passion for photography, and have built this business to provide a stellar experience, the same one I would expect if I were getting married. Below I'll dive into what sets Loui apart, and I hope to hear about your upcoming day!

Meg is not only beyond talented but also the kindest human being. We are so grateful to have had Meg as our photographer, she did beyond an amazing job capturing our engagement photos and wedding photos. She is on top of everything, extremely helpful and so kind. I had multiple people come up to me raving about how great she was at our wedding. Definitely our favorite wedding vendor we worked with!

I first connect with Hilary when I hired her as my second shooter for a 10 hour wedding last September. She impressed me with her professionalism, attention to detail, and her overall fun personality during the wedding. Her amazing experience as a second shooter will absolutely carry through at her own weddings! She truly cares for the couples she works with and has a deep passion for creating stunning work and an unforgettable experience. After reviewing all the images she captured from the wedding we had together I was blown away by her incredible eye and ability to capture unique and amazing angles. She brought a whole new perspective to the day that showcase the love and joy of it all! I’m definitely stealing her for 2024 weddings! She is AMAZING

I would first off like to say how responsive and informative the Deco is. Full transparency, I never got to do a tasting with the deco as I was out of state . However, we were complemented all night long and even after the wedding of how good the food was. We got the chicken wild rice, the salmon fillet and the roast veggie pasta. We also got the Helsinki cake made by the Deco and did the late night snack of pizza. Everything was amazing and everything tasted so divine . One of my biggest concerns was the food as everyone is a critic and the Deco delivered 100%

We had SO many people comment on how great the food was at our wedding. We spoke with several caterers prior to choosing Kafe 421.

They answered questions very quickly, came up with creative solutions, and we never felt upsold.

We absolutely loved working with and having Rock It Man Entertainment at our wedding. Although there was a minor hiccup the week of our wedding in a performer change/miscommunication, the team at Rock It Man stepped up and rearranged schedules to quickly accommodate our desire for a specific entertainer. And let me tell you… having Jon perform at our wedding was one of the highlights of our whole day! From live music at the ceremony, to hours of live music during the reception – Jon kept everyone entertained. Our guests are still talking about how much fun they had and what a great idea it was to have live music. The price of Rock It Man versus a DJ company is very different, but we truly felt that the show, the energy, the vocals, everything we received from Rock It Man was worth every single penny.

  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves North Oaks, MN

I have always been captured by the beauty of nature and flowers. There is something miraculous and poetic in the way flowers grow out of the dirt and bring such variety and delight. ​​​​​​​​ This is why we incorporate flowers into the most pivotal moments in our lives. Flowers are symbols of all the potential in these moments; they speak to all the possibility of our lives while reminding us that, though beautiful, life is fragile. ​​​​​​​​ ​​​Participating in this language of flowers is what I love to do with Bedecked. Capturing and framing life’s significant moments with all the beauty and mystery of flowers!

Awarded Best of Zola
10/10 would recommend hiring Becca from Bedecked Florals. A little back story- I had hired a florist back in 2020 pre-pandemic-I met with her once to discuss my vision- didn't hear from that florist again until I had to reach out to her 2 months before our original date to ask if we should be meeting up again to discuss flowers.. that wedding ended up getting canceled due to covid and she ended up refunding us since our second date landed on her brothers wedding- I was pretty relieved to have the opportunity to hire someone else. It was when I hired Becca when I truly realized the bullet we dodged with our first florist. Becca was so wonderful. Her communication was incredible and she made the planning process SO much easier. She looked through my Pinterest page which had no direction at all- I liked about every type of style out there and somehow she understood the vision I could never describe to her. She would pick up on the things I liked that I wasn't able to articulate- I just knew I liked the photo I pinned but I could never pick out why I liked it. She would send me REAL options of vases to choose from and would create virtual renderings of bouquet options with the flowers she would be using. She made virtual renderings of different arrangements in my ACTUAL venue, using the tables, runners, plates, glassware, ect that I rented so I could see EXACTLY how everything would look in the space. I was AMAZED. Becca made flowers the easiest part of the planning process. Come wedding time, her execusion was FLAWLESS. So many people commented on how beautiful our flowers were- her passion and hard work really showed and she absolutely nailed it. With out pause, hiring her was one of the best decisions we made while planning our wedding!! Thank you so much Becca! You absolutely killed it!!

I've always had an interest in photography, but my passion really took off when I had my first child. There is something special about capturing children in the moments of pure joy. The special moments in people's lives, sometimes lasting only an instant, are the reason I decided to pursue a career in photography. I live for taking that perfect candid shot. Weddings, children at play, engagements, all of them offer their moments, maybe even one, that you can never get back. My goal is to always capture those moments you can look back and reflect on for a lifetime.

Where to start on Jake Lanes ability to take AMAZING photos!?! Two Oaks photography is something you’ll want to check out. I randomly came across Jake on the internet looking for someone to shoot Josh and I’s wedding on 10.3.2020. We got an engagement session with him to better get to know him, his style, and see the quality of the photos. The engagement session was so much fun, we actually got fully submerged into the Mississippi river to try and get the perfect shot! Yes, the shots did turn out quite great. Jake is creative, witty, thoughtful, and goes above and beyond. As thrilled as we were about the engagement photos, we were that much more excited about our big day and it being captured! We had Jake, his lovely wife Amanda and actually a videographer which was a total surprise on our big day (a good one). We just got the wedding photos back and am totally blown away by the amazing photos. These are photos Josh and I will cherish the rest of our lives!! Thank you so much for rocking our day Jake and everything you brought to the table. We enjoyed your cheerful attitude and great ideas, God bless you and your family.

Born in the French Alps and growing up together with my 4 siblings, in a stone house on the side of a mountain, it wasn't difficult to be moved by the beauty that surrounded me. It wasn't long until I turned to imagery as a means of interaction with the visual world around me and to use it as a means of communication with others. I hope to use the power of the image to make a difference and be a part of something bigger than myself. Camera in hand I hope to give you a chance to share and relive your special moments of life through the images we create together. Lets make something.

Morey was awesome! He has a very calm and professional presence and we will definitely be using him again in the future. Photos that we will have in the frame for years.

I’m the lead videographer and editor of Voyageur Motion Pictures! I love hanging out with awesome people on the most special day of their lives. Capturing those emotions and memories is a huge honor. I also love craft beer and local coffee shops, so hit me up if you want to chill before (or after) your big day. When I’m not editing, I’m working in our veggie garden, traveling, or losing to my husband Rudy in a card game at a brewery. It’s really important to me to vibe well with the couples I work with so that we all have a blast at your wedding. We spend more time with you than just about anyone else! So shoot us a message and let’s talk!

On weekdays you can find me either at home or outside with my five year old daughter. In the evenings I am either home with my family cooking dinner together, playing games or reading. Weekends I stay busy between capturing weddings and spending time with friends and family. I shoot 35mm and 120 film as a hobby. A few other things I love: my daughter, cold coffee, plants (I have many), printed 35mm images, chocolate chip cookies, Scandinavia, rollercoasters, music, and traveling.

We couldn’t be happier with selecting NYLONSADDLE PHOTOGRAPHY for our wedding photos! Nicole did an excellent job wrangling our large family & wedding party as well as capturing all the details and the vibe that was so very us. As the bride, I missed a lot of the little details of the day and I’m so thrilled to have those captured as well as the big moments so beautifully documented. In addition to digital photos, we chose to add on a roll of film to our photos and the results were just stellar. It was perfect and we are over the moon with the results! On top of all that, Nicole was just so much fun to get to know. We would love to work with her again in the future!

Hey there, I'm Bethany. I love meeting people, celebrating people, and making people feel awesome. My photography is all about authenticity and a sense of adventure! I'm a love-obsessed individual whose passion and joy come from telling visual stories. I use a natural approach to photograph every smile, tear, and embrace shared on your special day. I believe that by being unobtrusive I can capture moments that aren’t staged, and are full of life.

Awarded Best of Zola
Bethany was the photographer for a wedding I planned. She was already hired by the couple when I came on board and I hadn't worked with her so I wasn't sure what to expect. I really appreciated her communication ahead of the day by letting me know what she needed in order to get the shots she needed but was also able to work within the timeline we needed. She was able to hit up three different locations on the day for photos with a ton of ground to cover and she got it all covered! The pictures were definitely amazing and overall she was just to work with.

We had Candice bartend our 200 guest wedding, and she was nothing short of AMAZING! From the very first meeting, she helped us create two signature cocktails that perfectly reflected our personalities and the vibe of our day. One was a fun and fruity option for the summer heat, and the other was a smooth, whiskey-based drink for a classy touch. Throughout the night, our guests couldn’t stop raving about the drinks! Many said they were the best cocktails they’ve ever had at a wedding, and the presentation was stunning—Candice even added personalized garnishes that tied in with our wedding theme.

We had our September wedding aboard the Magnolia Blossom. Captain Dan and his crew were absolutely amazing to work with and went above and beyond. Tamara even helped me bustle my dress when we couldn't figure out how to do it. There are lots of areas for photos, on the river, the dock, in the marina, and at the park, just a short walk from the Marina. We had a lot of compliments from our guests on how unique our wedding was, oh, and the food was amazing as well! I would 100% recommend Magnolia Blossom Cruises to any couple looking for a riverboat cruise wedding!
