Emily was so wonderful to work with, and provided such great value from beginning to end. I had 14 people getting makeup done and she made the entire process stress-free and truly enjoyable. She is absolute pleasure to be around and every single girl LOVED their makeup, which is very rare! I have never felt more beautiful than when she did my makeup.

The Garrison was the perfect venue for our winter wedding. Annie was incredible for all of the coordination, and we loved working with our day-of attendant, Fatima, who made the entire event personal, seamless and low maintenance. From the very beginning, their communication was quick, easy and incredibly helpful as we planned our big day. The views both inside and outside the venue were absolutely breathtaking.

Dylan was absolutely phenomenal as our wedding DJ and emcee! From the very start, he was incredibly communicative, professional, and so helpful throughout the planning process. He gave us great suggestions and made sure every detail was perfectly planned. On the day of our wedding, he truly exceeded our expectations. Not only did he keep the energy high and the dance floor packed all night, but the flow of the entire evening was seamless. As the emcee, he guided us and our guests through every key moment—from introductions to speeches, to special dances—with such ease. His timing was flawless, and everything transitioned so smoothly that we could just relax and enjoy the night. The vibe he cultivated was unbelievable—it’s hard to even put into words just how perfect his song choices were. He expertly read the room, adjusting the music to keep everyone on the dance floor and having the time of their lives. It felt like he knew exactly what we wanted without us even having to ask. The transitions were seamless, the energy was high, and everyone (of all ages) was up and dancing. We had so many guests tell us this was the best wedding they’ve ever been to, and a huge part of that credit goes to Dylan. He truly brought our celebration to life, and we couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. If you’re looking for someone who will make your wedding unforgettable, Dylan is your guy!

There are so many lovely things to be said about Julia. Her photos of our wedding took my breath away! From the first intro call, Julia was pleasant to work with. Talking with her was so easy, like we were already friends with her! Throughout planning, Julia was always responsive, flexible, and made it easy for us to provide the information she would need for the day to run smoothly. She even helped us map out the timeline of the day. My husband and I are not the most comfortable in front of the camera, but her photographing style was very natural and helped put us at ease. Our pictures came out so beautifully – I really feel like they capture organic moments of joy and love between us. I can’t thank Julia enough for the incredible work she did - I know we will cherish these photos for a lifetime!

We’re Hudson Valley wedding photographers that want to see you at your happiest. Every love story is unique, and we want to make sure yours is captured naturally and exactly as you want to remember it. Let us make your wedding photography experience comfortable, relaxed and beautiful.

We couldn’t have been happier with the quality of Megan and Kenneth’s work. From the engagement shoot through the wedding, they made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. They’re great at taking direction if you have requests but are also assertive and creative in setting up poses and backdrops. Having two photographers resulted in TONS of shots and adequate getting ready time with both bride and groom. They’re also the nicest people and delivered the photos promptly. Our friends and family were floored by how beautiful our photos are. Definitely recommend!

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Poughkeepsie, NY

I started photographing weddings 9 years ago and was influenced by the two great passions in my life at the time: landscape photography and teaching. My love for both deeply influence my wedding photography because I find inspiration in both the natural setting of a wedding as well as special moments between people. When I document weddings I am in all places at once, constantly searching for great light to highlight beautiful settings as well as the heartfelt, emotional moments...your wedding day deserves to be documented in all its glory and beauty. When I have free time I love cooking, traveling, brewing beer, hiking, and running.

Working with Matt was an incredible experience. From the moment we found his website, we were immediately drawn to his style. About a month before the wedding, he took the time to go over every family and bridal party photo combination we wanted, creating a detailed, organized list. He also asked about any special moments or details we wanted captured, ensuring nothing was missed. On the wedding day, Matt was exceptionally organized and efficient. The whole process felt seamless, which meant we spent less time posing for group photos and more time enjoying our day. He captured everything we asked for—and more. When we received the photos, we were absolutely blown away by the quality and quantity. Every special moment we could have imagined was captured beautifully. Matt’s eye for composition, his artistic style, and the way he brings out colors in his photos really showcase his talent. If you're looking for an incredible photographer, we highly recommend booking him as soon as possible!

Awarded Best of Zola
In today's world everything is extremely overpriced and service is terrible. My wedding was very stressful for me because of this. I did not have a DJ or a Photographer and honestly was considering just something small scale, until I talked to Ed from DJ Double E. I would give them 10 stars out 5. From the minute I talked to Ed it was a breath of fresh air from the million other outrageously priced DJ's. The price is unbeatable but that's not why I would recommend them. They are absolutely phenomenal and made my entire wedding. The music was perfect from ceremony to the last dance. They were so professional, so involved and so fun. We had a daytime (early) wedding. It is so challenging to get people up and have a good time at 12:30 in the afternoon, I was having meltdowns about it, they reassured me but had the entire place up and having fun. You didn't know if it was day or night. They helped us more than the attendants at the venue. Over 100 guests said how amazing they were. The pictures they took could not be any better. Any other DJ who had packages like this (photo booth etc...) were THOUSANDS, yes THOUSANDS, more!!! I really hate to admit but I'm not easily pleased however I would put my name on the line for DJ Double E after how they made my wedding. DJ Double E exceeded all my and my husband's expectations and -consider yourself lucky if you hire them for any event. I'll be calling them again!!!

  • Caterer

Danny has spent the past dozen years working in kitchens around New York City and abroad. After attending the French Culinary Institute, Danny worked at Momofuku Ko, Isa, Estela, and Cabane à Sucre Au Pied de Cochon in Montreal. In 2015, Danny founded Joint Venture as a way to explore how food can bring people together beyond the confines of a restaurant’s four walls. JV is a departure from and reaction to the kitchens of his past. It's about collaborating with friends, reconnecting with nature, and working directly with farmers and producers. JV creates menus that are of the season and expressive of their surroundings. JV is ever-evolving.

Awarded Best of Zola
Joint Venture cooked some of the best food of our lives for our wedding of 135 people last year in the Catskills. Danny somehow managed to create a menu that was comforting and indulgent, yet nourishing. I'm a musician who's played hundreds of weddings and I've never experienced a caterer close to Joint Venture's level. He also focuses on seasonal ingredients and sustainable farming practices-- even growing some of the food for the meal himself. We couldn't recommend Joint Venture more to anyone looking for a transcendent catering experience that's also down-to-earth (literally).

If your style is timeless as it is eclectic, rooted in Nature, beauty, and community, Idyllwild is for you!

Working with Jasmin is a complete dream. From the moment we had our first Zoom call, almost 2 years before the wedding, I immediately adored her. She was recommended to me by our venue, Roxbury Barn and Estate, but I had already scoped her out via Instagram since she was tagged in many of the venue's photos. Her style is absolutely breath-taking and I knew I wanted to work with her right away. After our Zoom call and her shared 'vision board' and proposal, I was so excited to keep planning. She wanted to know my vision and details from the start, and welcomed allllll of the inspo pictures I sent her way! I can't emphasize enough how she truly 'sees' the vision her clients want to bring to life -- and brings her knowledge of florals and eye for design to her work with each couple. She is communicative and collaborative: she asks detailed questions to ensure you 100% love the florals in each aspect of your event. Beyond that, she is so sweet and takes the time to write detailed emails that make you feel seen and heard. Wedding planning can be a stressful process but with Jasmin's talent, professionalism, and collaboration, it feels exciting! I couldn't have been more happy with how my bouquet turned out; in fact, all of the girls and beauty vendors were gushing over the bouquets the morning of the wedding. Our floor alter, which we repurposed as florals in front of our sweetheart table at dinner, were absolutely gorgeous. As Jamin so accurately observed, I was really going for "effortless elegance" (her words, but my exact thoughts!). The gorgeous bud vases and flameless candles came together perfectly, as well as the branches I asked if she could add last-minute! From the very start, I said Jasmin was my favorite vendor to work with and I just can't recommend her enough! If you are in need of a florist in the area, book her -- it will be the best decision you make for your big day!

Working with Jill and her team was an absolute delight. They not only met but truly exceeded my expectations for our wedding day floral arrangements. Despite providing several conflicting inspiration photos, Jill and her talented team masterfully translated my vision into the most stunning ceremony and reception arrangements imaginable. I was utterly thrilled with the results. What impressed me even more was their unwavering professionalism in the face of challenging weather. When it began to pour rain, Jill's team remained completely unfazed. They diligently worked through the downpour (which fortunately stopped just in time for our outdoor ceremony) to ensure everything was set up beautifully. I am profoundly grateful for their exceptional vision, remarkable creativity, and meticulous attention to detail. Jill and her team's expertise and dedication played a crucial role in making our wedding day truly magical. Their ability to bring my floral dreams to life, even under difficult circumstances, was nothing short of impressive. I wholeheartedly recommend their services to any couple seeking extraordinary floral arrangements for their special day.

We got married on our property in upstate NY and KR occasions helped provide day of coordination and SO much more. Kayce who is the founder, owner and operator helped coach us through the process, provided regular therapy and sourced some amazing vendors, who made the day so special. I would highly recommend that anyone getting married either at a venue or on your property use a coordinator so that you can relax on the day and feel assured that all will go to plan. Kayce is very experienced, knows what works and what doesn’t and fully takes charge to get the job done. People don’t generally follow directions at events and Kayce made sure that we stayed on schedule and didn’t have any regrets after the big day. Highly recommend KR occasions - you will be in safe hands and won’t regret the investment.

Carroll is absolutely amazing, THE BEST!! From start to finish, Carroll was very upbeat, friendly, respectful, and professional. Carroll was so fun to work with, we loved all the photos she took during our engagement session and our wedding. Everyone has said how great our photos came out! We highly recommend Carroll and look forward to working with her in the future!

Cappy Hotchkiss Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Poughkeepsie, NY

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 Hotchkiss Photography was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first connected, their communication style was friendly, responsive, and clear. They took the time to understand our vision and made sure we felt at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work is truly exceptional - their photos have a nostalgic, natural, and emotional quality that perfectly captured the spirit of our special day. Cappy's skill and creativity shone through, even in the challenging backgrounds of our intimate venue in Greenport. They beautifully documented every moment, from the getting ready shots to the ceremony and reception. The final images are timeless, memorable, and absolutely perfect. We couldn't be happier with the results and highly recommend Cappy Hotchkiss Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

We had the pleasure of working with Tara for a mutual client recently, and it was a great experience! Tara was responsive, personable, and professional throughout. She thoughtfully shared preview and completed photo albums with us right away, and her work is beautiful! Thanks Tara for capturing the spirit of the day (and our venue!) so perfectly! We hope to work with you again soon!

Ahh you made it this far and I am so happy that you are here. Come get to know me a little bit better… I am a Hudson Valley photographer who occasionally dips their toes in NJ too. Having fun and capturing special moment with your loved ones and families is what makes my day. I am a girl mom to my favorite tiny human RyRy and a fire fighters’ wife and when you don’t see me behind a camera or working my full-time job as a graphic designer, I am usually soaking up the sun at the beach or outdoors doing something fun with my family.

We cannot recommend Katie enough! From the moment we reached out for our wedding photography, they were incredibly responsive, professional, and genuinely excited about our big day. On the wedding day, Katie was a calming presence amidst the whirlwind of planning and emotions. They blended seamlessly into our celebration, capturing candid moments that we will cherish forever. The way they interacted with our guests made everyone feel at ease, which translated into the most natural and beautiful photos. The final gallery blew us away! Each image was thoughtfully composed, with stunning attention to detail. They perfectly captured the essence of the day—from the emotional vows to the joyous dancing—and we were astonished by the quality and creativity in every shot. We also appreciated Katie’s ability to stick to our timeline while remaining flexible and adapting to the day’s flow. Their artistic vision truly shone through, and we received countless compliments on our photos. If you’re looking for a talented, dedicated, and friendly wedding photographer, look no further than **Katie Ellen Photography** . They truly have a gift for storytelling through their lens, and we are so grateful to have had them as part of our special day! Thank you, Katie, for giving us memories we will treasure for a lifetime!

I am Vicki Weed, yes, that is my real name. I have been a wedding only florist in the Hudson Valley for over 30 years. I love flowers and weddings more than you can imagine! I only book a limited number of weddings per year, to ensure my clients get the attention they deserve. I strive to deliver the freshest flowers from local and wholesale growers. I also lend or rent containers, props and decor - to keep costs and the imprint on the environment as low as possible. I would love to create the floral of your dreams!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment I met Vicki from Deja Vu Floral I knew I was in good hands. She immediately understood my vision for a simply, cozy winter wedding (January 2024) and offered expert advice on how to bring it to life. Her knowledge of seasonal blooms and color palettes was impressive, and she was able to suggest stunning floral arrangements that perfectly complemented our venue. Her knowledge and easy demeanor put me at ease and I didn't consider anyone else after speaking to her.  The day of the wedding, the floral arrangements were absolutely breathtaking. My bridal bouquet was even more beautiful than I could have imagined, and it was the perfect accessory to my wedding dress. The centerpieces, which were actually runners so that my guests could actually see and speak to each other, were elegant and eye-catching, and the ceremony flowers were simply stunning.  What truly sets Vicki and Deja Vu apart is her professionalism and dedication to her clients. She was incredibly responsive, always available to answer questions and address any concerns. She was also very flexible and accommodating, working with us to create a custom floral package that fit our budget. I cannot recommend Deja Vu highly enough. Vicki's talent, creativity, and professionalism made our wedding day truly unforgettable. If you're looking for a florist who will go above and beyond to create stunning floral arrangements, I highly recommend choosing Deja Vu!!!
