Jasmine was exactly what we needed on our wedding day. Between the big parties, big loud italian and portguese families and all the photos I wanted and asked of her even at the last minute she was calm and professional and helped me stay grounded in the chaos. Plus, all the photos were gorgeous! It was amazing to look back at all the moments I missed in the busy day and see everyone love all the hard work we all put into it.

Avec L’Amour

  • Videographer

  • Serves Old Chatham, NY

We are painters when it comes to film. We enjoy creating love stories that poke at the heart of emotion. There’s an art to visually piecing a love story together. We have a strong eye for detail, and focus on really diving into a couples love and expressing their emotion for one another through our lens.

Awarded Best of Zola
Avec L'Amour captured our wedding in June of 2023. We went with Avec L'Amour because we really liked the style and felt the prices were extremely reasonable compared to some of the other videographers out there. We went with the package that included the highlight film and the feature-length film. The audio on the feature-length film is a little tough to hear because of all the background noise, but we were outdoors and in front of a lake, so it’s understandable. While planning for our wedding, we worked directly with John. He had great energy and seemed very prepared every time we interacted with him. However, we never met John in-person because the day before our wedding, he reached out saying he could no longer make it and would be sending a replacement instead. This was understandably very stressful, but fortunately the replacement he sent was awesome. We would have liked to know this update earlier if possible, however we know that’s not always possible, and this was our only complaint in working with him. When John sent us the footage of our wedding, we were so happy with it with the exception of one place where the audio didn’t match up, one place where suddenly the video went purple, and the fact that one of our best man’s speeches was completely left out of the highlight reel; we brought these concerns to John, and he fixed them with no hesitation in a timely manner. Though we can’t review John’s videography or wedding day presence directly, we did have a good experience with his company and would recommend it!

LGBTQ+ Owned. Serving everyone equally. Specializing in queer, off-beat, and non-traditional weddings and families. Kristen and Sheridan are the Capital District's only married LGBTQ+ wedding photography team.

It's hard to put in words how fantastic Kristen is! She is so talented, down to earth and the coolest person you will ever meet! I am also a photographer and I have second shot many times with her and her wife Sheridan! YAY! I love working with both because they are so professional first of all, and also it's so much fun! They have this vibe that creates this fun atmosphere to be around. I so enjoy working with them. Weddings can be stressful, even as a photographer but working with them, I have never been stressed or felt like we needed to rush. They are so easy to work with. Kristen and Sheridan are the best duo photographers there are! I love watching them work along side each other. Both have the greatest attitude and love their job. I also like that they schedule your day perfectly and they get to know you. Every time I work with them I'm amazed how connected they are with their couples. It's amazing to see. They photograph so many weddings, sometimes 3 in a weekend but yet they are connected with each and every couple. I have always looked up to Kristen and it's amazing seeing her grow and seeing all the beautiful work she has done for her couples. If you are looking for a photographer, (being a photographer myself) I recommend Kristen 100x and more if I could!! She will light up a room, ease your day if you are nervous, create beautiful images and just be present with you. :)

We're thrilled with our photos and experience We cannot say enough about how beautiful our photos are! We are beyond thrilled with how they turned out and how they feel like we felt on our wedding day. I will say, though, that we and our families all agreed that even if the photos didn’t turn out as we hoped, we would still be happy because of how great they were to work with. They made even the more camera-shy among us feel comfortable, never distracted from the important parts of our day, and were flexible and lovely to be around. We couldn't be happier with the final results and wholeheartedly recommend them for anyone getting married in the area.

The day of my wedding was even better - she came ready to go and I’ve never felt more beautiful. My wedding guests told me I looked like a model and even afterward when people saw pictures they immediately complimented my glam! I wanted to go for a natural but pretty look and Victoria killed it.

Instead, I want it to be short and sharp like the photographs I take. And I want my visual language to speak for itself clearly and distinctly. That’s why I will try to answer the main question you all want to ask. Why me?

  • Florist
  • Starts at $4,995

A wedding will not be complete in the absence of having beautifully arranged flowers. They do not only add color to the event, but they also signal the blossoming of a new life ahead of the couple. In the same way, flowers are important; it is also critical to choose the best Long Island florist to take care of the selection and arrangements. The florist has knowledge on the best wedding flowers New York to use, which will ensure making the right choice. Nonetheless, not all florists are the same in terms of the capabilities. To avoid ruining your wedding with bad flowers,

Jack & Rose Florist and Decorators did an amazing job with the flowers and decor for our wedding. Their communication throughout the planning process was always timely, kind, and clear - they responded quickly to emails and were very patient in answering all of my questions. The quality of their floral arrangements was just beautiful and thorough in every detail. They created gorgeous bouquets and boutonnieres for our wedding party that perfectly matched our color scheme. The memorial flowers placed in honor of our parents were crafted with care and looked lovely. The ceremony decor was simply stunning as well - they transformed our venue with floral arrangements and candles for a romantic ambiance that contributed so much warmth and beauty to our special day. We were thrilled with their services and would highly recommend Jack & Rose!

I don't think a single person at our 10/14/23 wedding received more compliments than DJ Steff. And there's no one I'd be happier to share the spotlight with. To put it simply - DJ Steff is amazing. At every phase of planning -- from our introductory call to walking through the event portal to wedding weekend - DreSteff Events was a dream. DJ Steff was patient, kind, thoughtful, collaborative, and incredibly responsive. He took time to know our specific music tastes, pet peeves, and personalities to bring our wedding ceremony reception to life in a way that felt uniquely us. He found all the songs we wanted to use -- no matter how obscure. The music mics at the ceremony were flawless. The cocktail hour tunes were on point. Our uplighting - both during dinner and when the dance floor was in full swing - set the room perfectly ablaze. And he DID NOT MISS with any of the reception music. All night, we heard: "WHERE DID YOU FIND THIS GUY?" "YOUR DJ IS AMAZING." "I'VE NEVER DANCED SO MUCH AT A WEDDING." I cannot rave about DJ Steff enough. If you're getting married in the tri-state, book him in a heartbeat. Best decision we made, outside deciding to marry each other.

i consider myself too much of a hopeless romantic and a laid-back photographer to bring the best in you! i’ve been told that nurture is my superpower, and documenting love stories is my outlet. over the years i’ve learned that when it comes to being creative, art it’s what makes me feel alive, that's why my approach to photography is to have an "as-personal-as-possible" experience with my couples by valuing authenticity and connection. to make the whole process feel light and easy! your life’s best moments and stages deserve to be documented in a way that tells YOUR story.

Juan goes above and beyond with his work. From the moment he interacts with his clients he has this genuine connection to him. He takes the time to be personal and truly understands his clients needs. He over delivers with his stunning work. Making sure each gallery is hand crafted to perfection for each couple.

When you hire Rick Lash Photography, you're hiring me, Rick. I've been a professional wedding photographer since 2012 and I still love what I do more than I did the day before. I'm here to make your wedding day better. How do I do this? By being thoughtful, professional, and precise. What's this mean?

I want you to enjoy your day as much as possible while I'm able to fulfill my role to the best of my abilities. I'm also here to make your memories better. That's what my photography is for.

I hired Rick to photograph a family gathering to celebrate a 150th anniversary event. Rick's ability to capture moments when family members were talking, laughing, hugging, and sharing special glances is one of his true talents. The photographs reveal personalities and emotions, and as we look at the photographs we keep saying "that's so her/him!".

Eileen Smith Events 

5.0

  • Planner
  • Offers 5 services
  • Serves Old Chatham, NY

Her experience, creativity & knowledge in the event industry puts her ahead of most in the area. She loves creating and working with clients on all levels to make their vision become a reality. "I love getting to know my clients and enjoy becoming their "New Best Friend" prior to the event.". Her talent in design, organization, and management makes any experience working with her effortless. She makes you feel so comfortable & give you the confidence it will be an amazing event.

I would first like to say, that I'm very honored to provide this review for Eileen Smith. She was absolutely the best to work with! I'm still in awe of how she pulled off my wedding in less than three months. With that said, here's why I feel this way. I was contracted with the Italian Center in Stamford, CT to have my wedding on August 26, 2023, in their summer tent. I knew there would be some work required to bring my vision to fruition, so I hired what I thought was a "wedding planner". This individual turned out to be a "party decorator", which I quickly realized, as soon as I spoke with Eileen, is a big difference from an experienced and professional Wedding Planner. The "party decorator" had no idea of all the intricate details required for a wedding. As the days grew close to my date, I was in complete shambles, frustrated and defeated. My wedding was going to be disaster! I could feel depression setting in, so I just started Googling every wedding planner in the tri-state (NY, NJ & CT) area. Most were already booked for the summer and not accepting any new gigs. I had called so many planners that my head was spinning, but I remember one agreed to speak with me on a Sunday afternoon in June. When she called me, she asked me to tell her what was going on. I started to explain my situation and the time constraint I was under. The first thing Eileen said to me was, "I'm so sorry you're going through this, so close to your wedding". It brought me to tears then, just as it's doing right now. I immediately felt like she cared and was going to rescue me. After some discussions, I hired Eileen and she took off from that point. She met with the venue representative several times, had countless calls and email communication with her to ensure I received the best service they could provide. She then informed me (unlike the "party decorator"), that the tent was way too big for my 100 guests and needed to be closed in. She had a decorator come in to drape off the tent which gave it a more intimate look. We then work with what I consider to be one of the coolest florist around. They absolutely understood the assigment. The centerpieces for the table were tall with white flowers, just how I envisioned it and the pillars of flowers at the altar were phenomenal. Everyone is still talking about how beautiful everthing was til this day. I could not have planned a better wedding if I started two years prior. Eileen stayed close to me throughout the entire process. She made sure all the vendors had their COI and performed the services they were hired for. Eileen packed up my husbands SUV at the end of the night with the two slices of cake I asked her to save for me. I would recommend her for her caring first, her professionalism and attention to detail. She definitely rescued my me!

Hi! My name is Nick. I fell in love with photography as a child through my love for music; I was obsessed with album covers and photos that would draw my eye and immediately tell me a story. I have a passion for art and my way of expressing it has always been through music and photography. I love hanging out with my friends and being social. Going out to dinner, having drinks, and spending time with my family are a few of my favorite things.

I’ve worked with Nick on multiple occasions and he is one of the most gifted photographers I know. There are very few photographers that I will recommend on a regular basis and Nick is at the top of the list. He has an incredible vision for capturing amazing photos and his editing style is in elite company. I’m always impressed and inspired when I see his finished work. On top everything else, he is very easy to get along with and always a complete professional. Nick is everything you could ask for in a photographer and more.

The Barnstorm is an NYC-based party rock wedding band, best known for their electric and engaging dance party receptions. It's been said they're "not a real wedding band," but rather "an incredibly fun and engaging band that just happens to absolutely rock weddings!" Whether it's today's hits, top 40, hip hop, classic rock, Motown, and all things in between, The Barnstorm can do it all - putting their own spin on everything they do.

Awarded Best of Zola
The Barnstorm isn't a "wedding" band. They're a band. A really great band. And that makes them the best wedding band, in our opinion. We went to one of their live shows before booking them to play at our wedding and we knew immediately they were perfect. The band is 7 guys who you would want to be friends with -- which makes them blend in seamlessly at a wedding. Their range of songs is awesome. Everyone raved about their playlist, including a few of our guests who are huge music snobs. They also did an awesome job of getting everyone involved. People were dancing, singing along, even getting a second or two on the mic. It was like having a private live show at our wedding, which we loved and all of our guests loved. The vibe is much better than other wedding bands we've seen. On top of that they were incredibly easy to work with and accommodating. Brooks never made us feel bad for requesting songs, no matter how random, and they learned anything we asked them to that they had the right instruments for. Overall it was an awesome experience and we could not possibly recommend them enough. If every wedding we go to in the future has Barnstorm as the band, we'll be thrilled.

We extend this way of thinking to our packaging, and use recycled boxes and paper whenever possible. Melissa’s unique take on cake has caught the eye of Vogue, New York Magazine, and many stylish events in NYC & beyond.

True story -- when people first came up to the reception area from the separate space where we held cocktail hour to find their seat at our wedding, everyone immediately rushed to see Melissa's beautiful cake. I have photos of a huge crowd gathered around the cake, everyone's phone was out taking pictures as if this was a celebrity sighting or something! People literally had to be told several times to get to their seats because they were literally in awe of the amazing cake. The cake also tasted incredibly delicious, and the buttercream frosting was a huge hit. Melissa really goes out of her way to create incredibly intricate and magical designs and it's something we will remember for the rest of our lives! Her and her husband also delivered the cake to our venue directly and even got in touch directly with our venue contact weeks in advance to coordinate. They were super organized and knew just how to handle everything. Plus she uses all fair trade ingredients so you will actually be contributing to sustainable agriculture.

Being a professional photographer for over ten years has allowed me to develop my artistic craft. In my subject matter, I tend toward a unique perspective in my shots, always seeking the emotional importance in what I see. Ranging from engagements, weddings, and corporate settings, I have photographed a diversity of people from all different backgrounds in diverse moments of their life. I love bringing out the best in my subjects through various angles and filters, celebrating that special and unforgettable moment.

Awarded Best of Zola
Words cannot express my gratitude towards working with Pepe and having him transform my memories into print. He made me feel so comfortable, my family and friends so comfortable. His pictures were flawless. He was great at communicating, leading up to the day and ensuring I was getting what I wanted. Day of, he was on another level just capturing each moment perfectly. I stare at these pictures even months later just in Awe of his work. So many favorites and so many beautiful shots of my family together that I will cherish forever. I really loved working with Pepe! Thank you again for being a part of our day and capturing these special moments for us. Love you!

Jason "Snorlax" Cun is an all around photographer that currently resides in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in the heart of Los Angeles, where he found his calling in photography. He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was the best! My husband and I would not have wanted anyone else to capture our special day. He did our engagement and wedding photos and our photos came out incredible! Jason is professional, friendly, and his outgoing personality makes the shoot so comfortable and enjoyable. During our wedding, he also went above and beyond by making sure to take care of us. He knows the ups and downs of a wedding, so he would make sure we were okay by reminding us to stay hydrated and to eat, he would be so great communicating the schedule for the day, and what to expect and what to do throughout the photoshoot. So grateful for his expertise and we totally recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer.

To start, I'm obsessed with memories! I am a mother of two wonderful kids and the wife of the most amazing, supportive man. Photography has been such a big part of my life the last twelve years and I can't thank my clients enough for allowing me to capture their special moments. I believe in capturing moments as they happen. My style is clean and natural and there's always those black and white moments that I can't live without! I love having a vision and seeing it realized through a photograph. Also, I love to travel!

From the moment we met Amy at our engagement shoot we knew we were lucky! Not only is Amy easy to contact and work with, she makes you feel at ease and like you are a rockstar! On top of all that-she is a DANG GOOD TIME! On our wedding day we had the pleasure of working with not only Amy but her partner Alex as well. By the end of the night we had found new friends in them. There was not a moment of stress on our part as they took control of everything and made the day run so smoothly. We have received a few teasers already and cannot wait to see the rest of our day through their eyes! If you are looking for a photographer who feels like a lifelong friend, is professional, makes you feel at ease,and takes stunning pictures then Amy is 100% for you!

Wedding, couples and boudoir photographer based in Owego, NY. I do both outdoor session and studio sessions. Some fun facts about me: #boymom, book worm, gear head, horror fanatic, iced coffee is life.

I had the pleasure of working with Morgan at a styled photo shoot I planned. Morgan was professional, easy to work with, and fun to be around. She worked well with the other photographers and gave clear directions to the couple being photographed. She was quick to edit photos and get them back to me. Even though it was a staged shoot, none of the photos of the couple look “staged.” I absolutely love her editing style, and her photos from the shoot are some of my favorites from the whole day. I use her photos frequently in social media posts, printed marketing materials and advertisements. I’m looking forward to having Morgan take some branding photos for me and my business coming up this spring. I’ve added her to my preferred vendor list for a reason. You definitely want Morgan to capture your day!

Our mission is to put you at ease, knowing you have an entire vendor team working together that you can trust. Deeper than that, we also aim to create a wedding that is unique to each couple, lend a listening ear when you are overwhelmed, and advocate for you and your desires on your wedding day. We want you and your family to enjoy this process just as much as we do!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Lydia and her team took care of things that I didn't even know about. Not only was everything seamless on the wedding day, but for the entire month prior (we booked the month-of package). If you're on the fence about hiring a wedding planner, do it. Hands down the best decision we made for our wedding!!

If I had a superpower, it would be celebrating people. I'm my friends' biggest cheerleader and I'll be yours too during this whole process! As a documentary wedding photographer, I focus more on being in the moment and letting you be YOU, by reminding you why you fell in love in the first place.

Loretta was truly a dream to work with. She really knows how to capture love within a photo ! We met during or engagement shoot which went amazing - she made us feel so comfortable while we walked around our neighborhood taking pictures. We knew the moment we met her that we had made the right decision. As soon as I saw her on my wedding day she gave me the biggest hug and interacted with my bridal party and family like they were her own. Truly a wonderful experience. We will forever be grateful for Loretta for being able to capture our big day.

Danielle is a professional event planner located in Westchester, NY, specializing in weddings, retirement parties, Bar / Bat Mitzvah’s, engagement parties, dinner receptions & more. Let my experience help guide you through planning your big celebration. No event is too big or small for Danielle’s Events.

Where to begin?! Danielle was a blessing! She made my husband and I so comfortable from the get go. We felt our worries slip away after our first zoom call. I’m a Type A personality so I was quite shocked to feel that at ease! The day of Danielle had her own emergency kit that came in great use. It was very humid outside so the extra hairspray and bobby pins made me and more girls feel more secure during the photos. She made sure our card box was secure and in our hands at the end of the night. She handed out all of our gratuities on our behalf so we could just dance and have a good time. Thank you again, Danielle. You truly made our night special!

For Couples who are good at heart, that live for the seconds and party like no tomorrow. Capturing Authentic moments, focused on heartfelt storytelling. Based in the Southern Adirondacks, I have been wedding photographer for 15+ years now telling over 400+ wedding days.

My husband Sean and I got married at the Blue Water Manor in June 2024. We are from northern NJ and took a chance on each of our vendors through their portfolios and online reviews. Jason went above and beyond what we could have ever expected from our photographer. Since we were from out of the area we had multiple phone calls to discuss timelines and specifics really helping us think of everything. Even met with us the week of to walk through the venue and other places we wanted to take photos, just rolling with it and helping us get exactly what we wanted. Nothing could have prepared us for the crappy weather we had the day of the wedding but Jason put a smile on with us and braved it. Never complained about how soaked he probably got and just did everything possible to help us have the best day. And we did. Every single one of our guests commented on lucky we were to have a photographer like him watching him in action and our photos speak to that. Even though our wedding day has come and gone we would still book Jason time and time again.

I have loved doing makeup since I was in middle school, always an artist and creative and when I discovered makeup it seemed The world aligned. My passion for people and sharing experiences with my clients and my love for makeup makes this my favorite thing I’ve ever done. My relationships with my clients is my favorite part.

Essie was my makeup artist for my June 22, 2024 wedding, and I simply cannot recommend her enough. She is thoughtful, kind, and incredibly professional with her brides. Though she has done hundreds (or maybe even thousands?) of weddings, she took the time to personalize my look for ME, and to encourage me to be honest if I wanted any tweaks. Her energy is so calm and positive- the exact thing you need in a hectic bridal suite. She worked FAST and even kept us ahead of schedule- which I believe is unheard of for the wedding day! Her assistant Riley made skin prep a total dream, and many of my bridesmaids said it was the best professional makeup they've ever received. However, Essie became more than a makeup artist throughout my planning process. When our photographer needed to cancel, she saw my post in a bridal FB group and immediately texted me to send about 25 photography recs- following up to be sure I'd found someone. When I posted in that same group asking for help finding a sponsor for our country club venue, Essie jumped in to help. She went WAY above and beyond what a vendor does for a client, and instead acted as a genuine friend. It's hard to fully put into words how wonderful she is, but booking with Essie is a no-brainer.
