New Pace was so accommodating and they were extremely prepared! It was important to us to find a vendor that did photo and video so we were so happy we loved their editing style and touched base with us throughout the whole experience. We loved their package to do an engagement session which was where we met our photographer Anna for the day of! It was great to build a rapport and not be nervous for the big day. She did a great job of making us feel comfortable.

What I great and awesome experience was to have Lucas in our wedding day. I knew from day one that I needed a video of my wedding day because I wanted to live that day again from watching it back since it goes so fast as I was warned. And that is exactly what I received from Lucas; I received a piece of time in a video. I have chills to watch it and remember the best day of my life. He is very professional, and he blended into the party so I never felt like I was being recorded so I could literally be myself, so did my guests, we were all pretty comfortable with him around. Thank you, Lucas!

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.

Hi. My name is Cici Chang. I am a professional makeup artist based in New York City. Passionate about the integration of makeup and fashion, I love the creative inspirations that stem from the art of makeup. When I first began my career as a makeup artist, I came across the OMAK philosophy which’s kick-started a series of learning, changes and self-improvement. OMAK is an acronym that stands for "Observe Merits and Appreciate Kindness"; it is a positive way of thinking that encourages one to see, recognize and appreciate the good qualities of others.Hence, makeup means much more than it is a delivery of personal beauty makeup Concept !

Jose Almeida Photography

  • Photographer

  • Serves Ocean, NJ

Weddings are celebrations that are full of emotion and romance all in a highly dynamic environment. Wedding photographs are timeless and irreplaceable so as a photographer, I feel I have a great responsibility at hand. I try my best to work with clients on their needs, provide flexible coverage hours and I work within their budgets. I am drawn to those unguarded candid moments. I attempt to portray an artistic feel that reveals feelings of emotion onto the viewer. Be it a gaze, a beaming smile, tears of joy or a blurred image to depict movement my goal is communication. It is these moments along with many others I feel should be captured.

Jose is fantastic! He has so much experience and very professional. Before our wedding day, he always had quick and clear communication. We loved his artistic eye and dramatic style of photography. He knows how to give good direction for those that aren’t used to posing or being photographed, and was always looking for the next shot. He definitely lets you be you and can still get amazing shots. We were surprised at how quickly we got to preview our gallery. After the wedding day, I realized that there was so much I didn’t get to document personally to remember the details from that day. But after seeing some of the shots, Jose had made me so happy to see how much he documented from the day! I highly recommend Jose :)

LIAT (singer/songwriter) 

5.0

  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Ocean, NJ

With her earthy acoustics, dark melodies, and rich vocals, singer-songwriter Liat has been captivating live audiences for over fifteen years. After years of performing in the pulsing cities of Philadelphia and New York, Liat moved to Colorado, where she drew inspiration from the folk music of the mountains. Her music evokes her itinerant life and Israeli-American heritage— 90s’ pop-rock meets 60s’ folk with glints of Middle Eastern desert soundscapes. She spins guitar acoustics with her powerhouse vocals for lyrical “dark folk” sounds that linger long after a performance.

For as long as I’ve known Liat I’ve always been captivated by her voice. She has a presence that is magnetic. Anyone who’s ever heard her sing has felt drawn to her performance and longs to be a part of the experience. When Liat played our first dance at our wedding it was hard not to cry. She learned our song while truly making it her own. Even though it was Radiohead and kind of emo it was special to us. She knew what that meant and delivered not only a song, but a moment we will never forget. I would recommend her to be the voice of any event. Her live music is now forever a cherished memory everyone should get to have and to hold.

When I went to college I knew I wanted to have a career that allowed me to work with people and so I studied Social Work and Psychology! Photography was a hobby but when my friend found her self with no photographer days before her wedding, she asked if I could shoot her day and from the first wedding I was hooked! 11 years later and I think I have the best job on the planet. I have been married to the love of my life Jordan for 6 years now and she is the extra magic in Swiger Photography. We have a lil rescue pup named Furgie and spend our free time trying new bourbons and exploring Philadelphia!

I have known Amanda both professionally and personally for several years, and when the time came to choose my own wedding photographer, there was no question that she was it. She is incredibly professional, personable, and has a way to bring the light out of every person who stands in front of her camera. She works with such ease and confidence that there was not a single moment that I felt stressed during our day, because I knew our moments were being captured. Leading up to the wedding, Amanda made sure that she really understood our vision for our day, and absolutely delivered! If you are looking for a photographer that can make even the most shy family member absolutely shine, who brings laughter and joy to your wedding, and who will unequivocally give her all to capturing your precious moments, you would be remiss not to hire Swiger Photography!

I've had a camera in my hand since I was a kid. My mom was a wedding photographer also. I spend my days taking photos because it inspires me and fills me with joy. To me, there is nothing better than capturing a beautiful moment. I have photographed weddings all over the US TX, NY and the Hudson Valley, the East Coast, as well as in Europe, the Caribbean, & Hawaii. A few more things about me… I love the ocean, traveling, exploring, hiking, dancing, the change of seasons, the outdoors, sunrises, sunsets, walking without a destination, that few minutes of magical golden light before the sun sets, life… and telling stories with photographs.

Kimberly has a unique talent for capturing special moments in her photography! An absolute pleasure to work with (even made me feel comfortable in front of a camera, which is NOT an easy thing to do!) Her energy and passion for her work exudes from her and is very evident in everything she produces. My family and friends loved working with her too, and she did great managing my crazy bridal party. Thank you Kimberly!

As a candid wedding photographer, my work is created with the purpose of preserving your love story with intention, honesty, and real connection. Getting to know you independently and as a couple through my questionnaires helps me to capture images in a way that is authentic to your unique love story. Every person is unique and your love reflects that. At your wedding you'll find me getting vulnerable with your closest peeps, using my ninja skills to quietly get the shot, and definitely singing along to any song I know on the dance floor. When I'm not shooting, you can find me snuggled up in bed watching my (current) favorite Netflix show!

If I could give a 10 star review I would . I will tell you a little bit of myself so you can understand why i love her work so much. Me and My Husband are the definition of young love i met him at 16 and i was married by 18. Just two teens growing together in love fast forward to our 10 year anniversary. i knew i needed the perfect photographer to capture our special day. My first impression of Daniella was wow i love how detailed and personal it was. It started with questions about our love story so she can better get to know us. From that moment on i Knew she was the right photographer for me. Daniella was everything I thought I wanted and more ! I met Daniella in person for the first time on my wedding day but I already felt like I knew her from our previous conversations and all the questions. I felt like I was prepared and aware of everything that was going to happen that day. Daniella took the time to get to know my bridal parties names and their relationships which my bridal party loved because it felt so personable. Daniella created a color coded picture schedule which helped make the group pictures quick and painless. When I want to relive the moment her pictures remind me of every single detail of the day I truly love it . She loves what she does and you can see it the amazing photos she takes . By the end of the night she was FAMILY ! I will book and rebook Daniella for all my photography needs !

Just a little bit weird. Usually the quiet one until I get around a smaller group of people. I cry easily at any emotional part of a movie, and I love all the tiny moments in life that truly make you feel alive. The smallest detail or fleeting moment is sometimes the most important thing or has the biggest impact, and that’s why I love photography. I get to capture the little things in life.

Richel is an absolute gem!!! We booked with her 2 years ago via phone, and my husband and I said after that phone call, “she sounds so sweet and fun”, and that she is!! We officially met Richel at our engagement shoot at Laurita Winery and her energy did not disappoint. She knew exactly where the good lighting was and just made us feel comfortable. My bridesmaids surprised me with Richel meeting us at a winery for some pictures at my bachelorette party and I was in aw. Then for the wedding, her and her fiancé Steve were sooo much fun to work with! They followed our timeline, got so many good angles and just overall had a great time. Highly recommend.

Welcome to James Webb Photography, recently named the best photographer in the world by my daughter. My name is James and my goal is to tell your love story through powerful images. From your engagement session to your wedding day, my approach is laid back and relaxed while giving direction as needed. This is how I capture authentic and expressive images that tell the story of your most important moments.

As a wedding videographer working alongside James Webb on a wedding day, I knew I had to have him on MY big day. Outside of his amazing photos, his personality is perfect for the job. He is laid back and easy going yet gets s*** done when need be. Sometimes weddings run behind and you need someone to still be able to take amazing photos and get you to cocktail hour. I would recommend and do recommend James to everyone looking for an amazing wedding photographer.

I'm an empathetic person. I'm sensitive and in tune with the more spiritual side of life. I love travel and photography. I am a mother and a lover of fashion and nature and all things beauty. Coffee is basically my favorite and what makes me hop out of bed (even on Monday morning). I have a lot of energy and I love fitness and eating healthy. I love my girlfriends and have deep relationships but only with a handful of women who I trust. Loyalty is important to me and I believe in doing all things with love.

You will not be disappointed! We worked with Denise for both our engagement and wedding photos and they were nothing short of gorgeous. Denise is a consummate professional and her expertise was evident throughout the entire shoot. Prior to our wedding she asked us a bunch of questions to set expectations and created a game-plan for our big day. On our wedding day Denise and Lexi (the second shooter) were able to get all the right shots while keeping everyone on schedule and in good spirits! Lexi and Denise divided and conquered, Lexi working with the groom's party and Denise the brides'. I can't recommend this duo more highly! The 'sneak peek' batch of photos was delivered very quickly and Denise was highly communicative throughout the entire process. Photography is the part of the wedding that will last far beyond the actual wedding day and Denise was worth every penny!

  • DJ
  • Serves Ocean, NJ

Pure Event Group is dedicated to providing you first-class entertainment. We understand how important your wedding day is and treat it, unlike any other private event. Your wedding deserves to be different, plain, and simple. This is why Pure Event Group does not offer the same old "Cookie-Cutter" DJ packages. From our first phone call, you will have a custom experience with your own custom package based on your vision, venue, and our experience. There are times where less is more. And for those of you who are looking to add enhancements like Sparklers, LED Videowalls, Monograms, and Photobooths, Pure Event Group has you covered.

From my first conversation with Griffon, I loved his ideas, his thoroughness, and especially his enthusiasm! We worked with Griffon asking questions and making changes until literally the day before our wedding. Not only was he able to accommodate to all of our requests, but everything was done so smoothly! Because of COVID restrictions in NJ, we had to keep our dance floor outside of our reception ballroom, and we were worried about the separation, we’d lose some participants on the dance floor. Boy, was I wrong! The transitions between rooms was unnoticeable, and we had the entire group dancing all night long. Highly recommend for anyone who wants a true dance party at their wedding!!

Awkward? Never heard of her. I promise you will feel right at home behind our cameras and in most moments… not even notice we're there! We strive to create timeless, authentic, true to you images and films. Films are created with a cinematic approach that’s filled with deep, rich color. No two films are the same because we strive for you to see your love story be the foundation of your wedding film.

Choosing a wedding photographer was one of the most crucial decisions for our big day, and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. From the moment we met Hannah, her genuine passion for photography and capturing special moments was evident. She not not only understood our vision but enhanced it with her (and AMAZING Micah’s) creativity and expertise. On the day of the wedding, they were not just photographers but integral parts of our celebration. Their energy and enthusiasm were infectious, putting everyone at ease and getting genuine smiles and emotions from us and our guests. They seamlessly blended into the background during intimate moments yet took charge (literally Hannah and Micah showed me what to do for a Pinterest inspo pic I sent her) when needed to ensure every important detail was captured beautifully. They let us shine and feel so beyond comfortable and natural, as we are not people that like the camera outside of the wedding! Their talent truly shone through in the final photos. They captured not only the significant moments but also the small, fleeting details that we might have missed in the whirlwind of the day. Looking through the photos brought back all the emotions and memories, making us feel like we were reliving the day itself. I swear I look at them everyday! We cannot recommend our Hillside Film and Photo highly enough. They are not just talented professionals but also genuinely wonderful people who made our wedding day even more special. If you're looking for someone to capture your wedding day with skill, passion, and a contagious enthusiasm, look no further. They are simply amazing! I swear I get more DMs from people asking who our photographer was so that speaks for itself!!

Hi! Welcome to Well-Dressed Events. We're New Jersey's premier style-centric wedding, party and event planning company. We specialize in high-end, unique events for modern, bold, standout clients and we pride ourselves on cutting-edge, creative design, styling and event management

Well-Dressed Events is SIMPLY THE BEST! Kristen was our planner for our wedding and I could cry over how amazing she is! The venue we chose was a blank canvas and we had to bring in everything ourselves, which was super daunting. Kristen was with us every step of the way, and really shined on the day of the wedding especially. She is just so much fun to work with, super helpful and attentive and just an all around pro. She took care of everything for me and accommodated even our craziest of requests. I love her to pieces! I can not recommend getting a planner enough, it is sooo worth it, and 100/100 recommend Well-Dressed Events : )

Creative, modern photographers based out of Philadelphia. Drew and Angela are fun, relaxed and experienced. You can trust us to capture all the fun and emotional moments as well as epic portraits with ease.

Angela and Drew are the BOMB! They are husband and wife, and clearly gaga for each other, which is very very cute. They have tons of experience, so they deliver consistently amazing images. They are extremely professional, and respond quickly. And no two photos look just like any other photos. Their creativity and eye for moments will pay off years down the road when you look back at your wedding photos and smile at how each moment can transport you back to the feeling at that exact time on the day, and then you have all this gorgeous artistic and creative stuff to relish in for decades! Can’t go wrong with picking them. For real!

Growing up with New York City as my playground and with constant exposure to the city’s vibrant culture and style, I had been introduced early on to the concept of self-expression—ultimately using a comb to sculpt my creations. I am known for my effortless updos, and glamorous waves! I decided to create Fluff Me because as a new mom going to a salon was a mission. What better place to get a blowout other than the comfort of my own surroundings! We pride ourselves of consistency of quality styling and positive professional attitudes.

Worked with Fania and Priscilla for my wedding hair and makeup. They also did the hair and makeup for three bridesmaids and hair for my mom. They were a dream to work with. So friendly and warm. I could not get enough of my hair and makeup. I wish they could do my hair and makeup all the time!
