My husband and I are absolutely thrilled with the service for our wedding that we received from Kyle. The entire planning process was made seamless. He was very patient and understanding with us as we found all of our songs and counseled us through our decisions! He communicated with us and helped us set deadlines prior to the actual event as we were extremely busy with other aspects of wedding planning plus working and moving! Kyle arrived as promised on the day of the reception and had everything ready to go! He worked seamlessly with the venue manager, the Maitre D and the wedding attendants to ensure that the wedding party was correctly set up for introductions! He also took it upon himself to ensure that everyone's names were correctly pronounced and we are so grateful for him! He also honored us with bringing his fiance, though we did say that he could bring along a guest to keep him company, but the only complaint was that he did not let us know so that we could have a dish for her!!! ... but otherwise, no complaints, they made a great team! This vendor is affordable and the quality of service is unmatched! I would definitely consider him for another event should we have one in the future!!! Do not shy away from the vendor!!! A!!!

Sydney K Andrew Photography

Saratoga Springs, NY
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000

Photographing weddings and elopements is a privilege that I do not take lightly. I treat each moment with as much care as if it were my own! While I am happy to take on weddings of any size, I specialize in intimate weddings or engagement sessions where I can embrace a documentary, candid approach. My favorite moments to capture are those quiet, unplanned interactions. I adore the small details. The moments that sometimes get overlooked but often times help tell the story of your wedding day the most. I thrive with couples who aren’t afraid to be silly and embrace the moments as they come as opposed to forcing it.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I could not be happier with our choice of choosing Sydney as our wedding photographer. We were so happy with our engagement photos and even more blown away by our wedding photos. Taking photos can be a stressful part of your wedding day and Sydney made our experience so far from stressful. Her photography style is beautiful and we will absolutely use her for future events/memorable moments. 20/10 recommend!!!!

Hi, I’m Bridget — but you can call me Bee, cause that’s what my friends call me! And since we’re basically already best friends, let me tell you a secret: taking pictures isn’t even the thing I love most about my job. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m as obsessed with taking gorgeous, dripping-in-light photos that you’ll look back on for ages as much as the next photographer. But what I really love? Meeting the most kind-hearted people and getting to know them on a level much deeper than the typical client-photographer relationship.

When we hired Bridget we couldn’t have imagined a better photographer! From the very first meeting to the engagements photos and everything leading up to the amazing is nothing short of amazing! Bridget has become an instant friend! The shots that she gets and the work she puts into learning you as a couple and the venue is nothing short of spectacular! The photos from the wedding felt like we were reliving the whole thing again!

The A Lively Event team was so easy to work with. They were flexible and they keep us on the right path. Katie and her team were always honest and told us what was going to work easily and what would be more of a "logistical challenge." When they tell you the bus can't pick up at 4 different locations and get your guest all to the wedding on time... Listen to them, they know what they are talking about! We added an extra bus and are so glad we listened.

While I live in Albany, I'm willing to travel almost anywhere - feel free to get in touch whether you want me to come to you, or if you're planning a destination wedding!

Awarded Best of Zola
I can’t say enough good things about Anthony. I truly feel I was lucky to find him for so many reasons. Not only is he very diligent when responding to emails and phone calls. But truly the main thing I loved about working with him was that his energy was exactly what a nervous bride needs — calm and reassuring, while still displaying so much enthusiasm and excitement for our wedding. Music was super important to my husband and I’s relationship so I was happy to know how talented Anthony is. He is able to cover a huge repertoire of music but also took it upon himself to learn a few songs I requested as a special dedication for my husband-to-be. Everyone at our wedding raved about him and kept telling me they even felt his sound was better than some of the original artists’ songs he was covering. My cocktail hour was the exact vibe I envisioned— so dreamy and I’ll never forget it. All thanks to Anthony!

Hi, I'm Jaci Berkopec! A self portrait of me would include a frozen pizza, caesar salad bag, and a bottle of white wine. But more importantly I am a wedding, lifestyle and adventure elopement photographer based out of NYC. Weddings and elopements are one of my passions because witnessing love and marriage is one of the most beautiful things we can witness. When shooting with me, expect to have tons of fun and lots of laughs because I like to be weird! Life is too short to be normal! I photograph all types of love.

Jaci was INCREDIBLE. We found her on Zola and fell in love with her work. From start to finish she was easy to communicate with, understood our vision, and was very personable. We didn't want any pictures that were too posed or awkward, which I knew was going to be hard because I am so awkward in photos, but somehow we look amazing in every single one. We are going to treasure these photos forever and I am so thankful that we chose Jaci to be our photographer.

Shawn provided the entertainment for our October 7 wedding and we could not be happier that we hired him! Hiring a DJ can be tricky because it's one vendor you really can't "trial" before your big day. Shawn took away a lot of that stress with a comprehensive questionnaire he had us fill out ahead of the wedding. We also sent him a list of do not play songs and vibe suggestions, but trusted him to read the room to keep the dance floor packed all night. We also really appreciated that Shawn was there to curate an enjoyable vibe -- not to hear himself talk on the microphone all night. He played a great mix of music that was suitable for guests of all ages and backgrounds, yet still felt cohesive when played one after the next. A true professional! Our guests had a blast dancing the night away, and many of them told us how much they loved Shawn's DJing in the days following the wedding!

Our teams focus is always giving couples the best entertainment experience possible. We combine technology with knowledge and music to create unforgettable moments. Our team is dedicated to bringing you a party you'll never forget.

We got married in June 2024, and had Thaddeus as our DJ. Mackenzie took care of the photo-booth. Over the course of the 9 months leading up to the wedding I probably had 4 or 5 calls with Thaddeus to give him the general vibe we were looking for & work out details. He was professional, honest, and gave great feedback. We had many specific asks and Thaddeus made sure all of our wants fit into his plan. Once the party was going, we gave Thaddeus the creative freedom to do his thing & make sure our guests had a good time. He totally delivered. I absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ that can keep the party going! Mackenzie was great to work with as well. Empire State Events got more backdrops to choose from in the middle of our planning, so she gave me the option to switch! I’m glad we did, the eucalyptus backdrop fit perfectly with our vision. Mackenzie was incredibly friendly & ready to help anyone that needed assistance. Our guests loved the photo-booth & our kids/nieces & nephews were entertained too! Win-win!

Alex did an incredible job with my bridal look and my mom’s MOB glam. From the first point of contact to the trial to the day-of, Alex was warm, professional, and seemed to possess a sixth sense for what we wanted… even if we weren’t quite sure ourselves! I wanted a natural, glowy look that elevated my day to day “no makeup” style into something that would photograph well and stay put throughout the day. Alex did that and then some… people went out of their way to tell me how good and natural my makeup looked! She took feedback well and adapted to my/my mom’s preferences seamlessly. Amazing value, and I would highly recommend for anyone. Especially great pricing model for brides without wedding parties who can’t meet high bridal party minimums.

Katie and Kelsey were one of the best choices we made for our wedding. Photos were important for us, and they captured our day beautifully. They caught our personalities and the feel of our day. We love ALL of our photos which I’m not sure many people can say. From start to finish they were professional and made the day go with ease. Can’t recommend them enough. Choose them and you’re in good hands.

It’s the one-on-one relationship that you have with your event host throughout your planning that will, and absolutely should, spill over into the atmosphere of your event. Getting to know you with the desire to personalize your entertainment, not simply customize, is a large part of where creativity comes from, and not just mine, but yours as well! I love to offer many suggestions and ideas for your event but also find it just as important to hear your "unique" and "awesome" ideas.

My guest are still raving about Caroline! We are looking for more reasons to book her! She was absolutely amazing. She never missed a beat. She did things that were out of her job title to help make my day a little more special! Caroline was amazing when it came to playing over time as well. Nobody had one negative thing to say about her. Absolutely recommend her! We will definitely be booking her again for something!

I'm also enthusiastically lgbtq+ friendly, body-positive, delighted by DIY and pro making-it-up-as-you-go. Let's celebrate your love, your way. I have to be up front about a few things.

I will almost definitely get a little teary-eyed during your vows, but don't worry... I can take pictures and cry at the same time.

Rebecca really made us feel at ease so that we could have the best photos possible. She took into account our desire to have photos of everyone with the bride and groom from the receiving line and really captured all the special touches that made our day unique.

I could go on endlessly about how amazing the Maples Estate, and Katie and Louis are but I’ll try to keep it brief! From our first interactions with Katie, which was via a virtual tour, my husband and I knew there was something special here. We immediately booked an in-person tour, and once we stepped foot on the property we knew this was where we would get married. The estate itself is stunningly unreal. In the middle of the mountains, beautiful views all around, wild flowers in abundance, a beautiful river, the pavilion is a dream, and so many options for your event locations - all of which are magical. Our wedding party stayed with us in the house and we all felt so comfortable. With 17 of us in total it was awesome to have the space to be together comfortably as we played games or shared a meal. The getting ready room is beautiful, it is a fun space to prepare in and the photos will be epic. We added on partial planning to our contract, so we worked with Katie throughout our wedding preparations. Katie is fantastic! She made us feel so comfortable, which made it easy to collaborate. Katie made our design board, every time I shared it with a vendor the response was “oh my gosh did you make this?!” Katie’s design skills are amazing, organization is on point, she is calm and quick to respond, and her list of vendors is expansive and everyone we worked with was just as amazing as Katie and Louis. If you are thinking about the Maples Estate, go for it! We had a wedding that was so uniquely us and that was because Katie and Louis gave us the space to do so. At every point Katie embraced our ideas, embraced our family and friends, and allowed our relationship to be reflected in an amazing weekend. We are so grateful and lucky to have found them! We are rooting for a couples reunion event or something so we can visit them soon.

Every flower is handmade, painted and arranged to ensure your wedding flowers are exactly what you envisioned! There’s no waste from throwing away dead flowers and the wood flowers are made from an eco friendly material. Wood flowers also prevent allergy issues, scent sensitivity and wilting. They’re the perfect way to enjoy your flowers on your wedding day and every day after.

When I was looking for a florist, I didn’t want to spend too much because I thought it wasn’t worth it to spend so much money on flowers for one day. Then I stumbled on creek water blooms! The price was great and better yet I get to keep my flowers! Jessica did such a great job making exactly what I envisioned. I even felt like the florals she made were even better than I had imagined! We got my bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages. Looking back, I honestly would have gotten more pieces. When I began planning, flowers were the part I cared about the least. Once I started talking with Jessica and saw her proposal and what she ended up making - it truly became one of the pieces of the wedding day I was most excited about! She was great to work with, its obvious that she puts a lot of thought and pride into her work, she made sure to include me in decisions along the way to make sure that they came out exactly how I wanted! The flowers were so gorgeous and looked so real! The also were pretty sturdy and help up really nicely. Now we have them displayed in our house and they look stunning! Absolutely recommend!!

Rotterdam Junction, NY
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $999

​I began photography in early 2015 by offering a few free sessions. Soon my business grew and I was booking numerous family and children photography sessions each month. In the summer of 2015 I began photographing weddings by offering to photograph a wedding for free and now I have seen my business grow from a few weddings a year to being fully booked with weddings nearly every weekend! In 2019 I decided to turn something I was passionate about into my full-time job. Many of my weddings are booked through "word of mouth" from some of my amazing clients! I am located in Rotterdam, NY and I travel in NY, VT, and MA for weddings.

Melanie with Always in Focus Photography was a joy to work with for our wedding day. Her communication style is very prompt, responding to emails and calls quickly, which was much appreciated during the hectic wedding planning process. Melanie takes her time with each shot, is very patient, and comes up with lots of creative ideas to capture the perfect moments. On our wedding day, she was amazing - capturing every important shot while never getting in the way of the event. The turnaround time for receiving our final edited photos after the wedding was faster than expected. Overall, Melanie is a talented, thoughtful photographer who helps document all the special moments of your wedding day. We'd highly recommend Always in Focus Photography to any engaged couple looking for a photographer who prioritizes communication and delivers beautiful, creative work.

A Charmed Affair we are boutique wedding and event innovators creating tailor-fit experiences for all of life's many celebrations, with love, respect, and allegiance to providing a holistic event planning and execution journey. The difference is in the details. I believe that life is meant to be celebrated and that bringing people together creates this palpable energy that becomes the food of humanity.

Saying we are obsessed with Kate, is an understatement. Kate did my sisters wedding at our property upstate in 2019 and I knew when It was my turn to get married, I HAD to have her as my wedding planner. I knew she was going to nail it and boy.. did she nail it! Down to every little detail. Everyone is still talking about how beautiful our wedding was and it’s all thanks to Kate. Whenever I felt stressed through out the process, she would schedule a call with me and go through everything until I felt better. Just talking to her made me feel less stressed. If you are thinking about hiring a wedding planner, Do yourself a favor and hire Kate. You’re welcome.

Piping Dreams 

5.0

Averill Park, NY
  • Baker

Whimsical & FUN cake studio!! Ca-truffles (cake truffles), cupcakes & cookies. Local pick up and delivery in Upstate NY / Hudson Valley. Shipping ca-truffles & cookies in the USA. Growing up, my father loved to bake and dreamed of one day owning his own bakery. We all loved his creations at family get togethers and I believe a general appreciation for food, and awesome desserts, was cultivated in me then… As well as a love for art & creating things that bring people joy!

The cake looked awesome and tasted wonderful! We got a sampler of cupcakes from Keira before our wedding and thought they were a little dry/cakey and didn’t pack a ton of flavor. We went with Piping Dreams though because we cared more about the look of the cake (awesome!) in the end the cake also tasted a lot better (moist, more flavor!) than in our samples. So I’d definitely recommend Keira and keep that in mind.

I am a wedding photographer who splits time between my hometown of Fargo, ND and Albany, NY. I'm all about adventure and meeting new people, and my work has taken me to just about every state in the U.S. and put countless special humans and connections in front of my camera. I strives to portray love stories with authenticity and meaning and I happily tailor my approach to my clients’ tastes and preferences. My mission is to ensure that you enjoy the day, while I take care of catching those quiet moments in an unobtrusive way.

Oh my goodness, Kay was so much fun to work with! I was the day-of coordinator for a recent wedding that she shot, and we truly had a blast. Not only was her creativity and dedication to the couple's vision unmatched, but her time management skills were 10/10. When our timeline fell behind and we were getting super close to ceremony start time, she managed to catch us up perfectly and somehow captured significantly MORE pictures than we had planned. She was a perfect match for our client and I can't wait to see all of the beautiful photos that she captured. Hire her now, you won't regret it!

Awarded Best of Zola
We got married at Glen Sanders in June 2023 and Mazzone provided everything. It brings me to tears thinking about how amazing everything they did was. First and foremost, the food was OUTSTANDING and three weeks later we are still getting soooo many compliments from our guests about the outstanding food. Everything we wanted and envisioned was far exceeded. There wasn’t a worry in the world. The cocktail hour food was to die for. Our meals were exceptional. The service was five star. When you work with Mazzone you know you’re getting quality and a good reputation. What we didn’t know was just how far beyond our wildest dreams they would be. The folks who work for Mazzone from our initial tasting to the wedding itself were so accommodating, friendly, kind, and just all in all exceptional at what they do. We couldn’t recommend Mazzone enough- if you have the chance BOOK MAZZONE!!!

NSM DJs spin live mixes at your event, with seamless transitions and expert blends. We’ve worked to build a reputation around a style that is fun, classy and memorable. That’s how we roll.

We are so happy to have found DJ Anthony B from NonStop Music for our wedding this past June 17th and would highly recommend him to any future bride and groom (or for any event)! My now husband and I are musicians, so we spent a lot of time researching DJs and debating what kind of DJ we wanted. As soon as we had the first meeting with Anthony (after listening to hours of his remixes), we knew he was the one. He listened to every need and concern we had regarding wedding music and DJs in general, and flat-out blew us away with his talent. His musicianship truly shows in his ability to get all of the guests out on the dance floor, no matter their age. Our guests are still raving about how good the music was more than a week after our wedding and how they have never danced so much at a wedding before (including our wedding coordinator)! He was able to take the classic wedding songs and put a nice spin on them so that it kept the original sound, but also added something new and special. He also took our wide, eclectic style of music and remixed oldies and rock with tech house and pop. Thank you for the Zedd remix and for our first dance song rendition! DJ Anthony was just the right amount of involved with the crowd, coming out to dance with us a few times, but also not over-involved. He was extremely professional and created a great atmosphere for our special day! This was one of our hardest vendors to choose, but also our most rewarding choice. We are looking forward to hiring him again for the next big life event, and really appreciate all of the hard work he did for us before the wedding and during the most special day of our lives! Thank you DJ Anthony. You really made our wedding (sound) incredible! -The Claffeys 3

I have been a working artist for over eight years but a makeup lover since before I can remember.. I chose to pursue my passion and graduated from esthetics school in 2017, officially becoming a licensed esthetician/makeup artist shortly after. I have found my groove in freelance bridal makeup (with boudoir and other fun projects too). From the most simple glams to full transformative glam, I love the creativity and artistry of it all. Being chosen as your bridal artist means more than you can imagine. Thank you for considering trusting me with this honor.

Jenna stepped up to help us at the very last minute. Our original MUA had an emergency and couldn’t make our wedding, so we pivoted quickly and found Jenna. She was flexible, kind, and most importantly, talented! She listened to what I wanted and made sure she knew everything important to me before we started. We did a trial and adjusted the day-of look perfectly. Our wedding morning was so much fun, Jenna was so personable and she, our hair stylist, and all my bridesmaids made me feel like a million bucks. Jenna is the type of person you feel instantly comfortable with and she just blended right in with the friend group and had fun with us. When my niece arrived to get ready, Jenna went above and beyond to make her feel special as our flower girl, and that meant the world to me! Thank you so much for everything Jenna, I am still floating on cloud 9!

Kim and CJ are the perfect mix of detail-oriented, thoughtful, creative, and cool under pressure. We hired them for full planning for our wedding weekend at Eastwind Hotel in Windham in June 2023. We started working with them a year before, and they were deeply engaged the entire time. Our wedding was a full weekend (3 days and three events), with lots of different moving parts and activities. Everything was outdoors. We had to bring in and set up a lot of stuff. Not only were they exceptional at knowing and implementing logistics (sound, lighting, rentals, decor, rain plans), they always made sure that the events reflected our personal vision and intentions. The planning process itself was made immensely fun working with them. Because of their expertise, we were able to focus on the creative stuff. We crafted what we hoped the weekend would look like together, planning over calls and the super organized planning spreadsheets Kim and CJ have created. Their systems kept us on track, and we (and our guests!) appreciated how well organized and executed everything was! On Saturday, we had lots of intermittent rain during outdoor events. Kim and CJ kept all our guests dry and happy, shifting schedules and logistics as needed. We were involved in these decisions but also trusted them completely, so were able to be fully present in the day with our guests. Kim’s timelines the day of the wedding ran impeccably; nothing felt rushed and she brought on top notch folks to work the wedding as day of staff. She has a deep knowledge of and relationships with various vendors in upstate New York, everyone was truly excellent. On top of it all, Kim and CJ were truly a joy to work with. Now a month out from the wedding, we are so grateful for how it all went! We miss them terribly! In sum, VNE gets our highest possible recommendation. Do yourself a favor and hire them, ASAP!

I love capturing everyone's unique love story and being able to freeze moments and give them back to you in photographs.

When we first met her, we had initially planned to go with a different photographer, but her energy, is vibing, and herunderstanding of exactly what we wanted was unmatched, as well as her pricing, and what it included. She helped us through every step of the way and even on our wedding day when we didn’t have a long enough package she was flexible and left the wedding and then came back so that we could get our sunset photos. During our engagement shoot, we were having so much fun with the props that we didn’t end up getting romantic views that we wanted after a few hours and she scheduled another couple hour shoot for us to get the romantic photos that we wanted it by the end of the time working with her I would call her friend and I look forward to working with her in the future .

We provide access to the Barn for the reception, the garden for the ceremony, the birch grove for the cocktail hour and dressing areas in the Pruyn House and the Verdoy Schoolhouse.

All else provided by caterer or rental service.

I got married at the Pruyn House 20 years ago and have been planning and designing weddings there ever since. I started a floral design and wedding planning business called Intuition Events and Floral Design, as a result of my experience with the Pruyn House. They were so incredibly helpful and welcoming! They try to make it as easy as possible to come into the space and create the wedding of your dreams! The grounds are breathtaking and every corner provides you with an amazing photo backdrop. It is also in such close proximity to many hotel, which makes it so convenient for guests from out of town. There is a bridal suite and the school house is the perfect spot for the groom and groomsmen to get ready. They allow you to come in the day before and have access to the space if you want to have your rehearsal, drop off items or DIY anything. I cannot recommend the Pruyn House enough! Beautiful spot that you would never know is in the middle of Latham!

Enjoy our traditional flavors like Moo-Vee Butter or our signature Albany Mix (cheddar and caramel) or take it up a notch with Deathwish Coffee Mocha. We do it all.

What's Poppin Gourmet Popcorn was awesome! They did a great job with the favors for our wedding - the popcorn itself was tasty, the ordering process was easy, and the staff even matched the design and colors of the label with my invitation - communication was great and we were very happy with their service for our wedding favors.

Heart Speak Visuals 

5.0

Troy, NY
  • Videographer
  • Starts at $2,899

Hello hello! We, Lindsey & Kevin, are the individuals behind Heart Speak Visuals. Together since 2015, we have never been shy to new experiences or exciting challenges. Lindsey, a Virginia native, took her first photo class in high school and has developed a passion for photography and videography ever since!

Lindsey from Heart Speak Visuals is the type of person you want alongside you on a wedding day. When my couple asked if she could reach out to me before the wedding to connect, it was an overwhelming yes! Having a fellow vendor want to collaborate before an event demonstrates how much they truly cares about the experience they want to provide to a client. And Lindsey shows that care, not only in her beautiful work, but in her willingness to work seamlessly with everyone. The day of the wedding, Lindsey was a joy to work alongside. Her friendly demeanor, ability to capture every moment, and warm presence was a dream. Weddings can be unpredictable due to so many moving parts, but having her as a fellow vendor made me extremely comfortable in tackling anything unexpected. Lindsey is an excellent communicator and I can't stress enough how wonderful she is at her craft. I would welcome any chance to work with her again! Lindsey and Heart Speak Visuals is one of the best in the business!

My name is Maisie and I am SO. DARN. EXCITED you are here! Celebrating and capturing you cool cats and kittens is one of my FAVORITE things to do and I am so stoked to share in your story. It’s not about the photos. It’s about you. It’s being playful and emotional; it’s being authentic; it’s creating something that is effortlessly you. I am known for my genuine, immersive, classic images and my easy-going, joyful nature from booking to gallery completion.

Maisie was hands down the best photographer we could have chosen. She not only nailed our engagement photos but created the best wedding day ever. She was helpful from getting ready, setting a schedule, staying calm and relaxed to taking amazing photos. Her eye for detail is incredible. For people who aren't used to taking photos she made us feel beyond comfortable that totally showed in all of our pictures. She has become a lifetime friend. HIGHLY recommend.

Milestone Media 

5.0

Schenectady, NY
  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $2,500

Milestone Media is a premier wedding cinematography service in Schenectady, New York. This talented team, led by owner and principal videographer Kayla Juracka, offers beautiful wedding keepsakes that will make you laugh and cry in the same video. Wedding cinematography is a great investment for your big day. Unlike other elements that will only be around for the event, wedding video allows you to experience your wedding day over and over. Choose Milestone Media for the wedding memento you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

If you’re being indecisive about hiring a videographer (like I was for various reasons) do it and hire Kayla, you won’t regret it! I booked with Kayla three weeks before my wedding, I had been lamenting on knowing I wasn’t going to be able to go back and watch my wedding except from footage on someones iPhone, and it was one of the best decisions I made. I’m so grateful to have found her at the eleventh hour, she was so welcoming from the moment I emailed her in a panic that I wouldn’t find someone so last minute. I was in the thick of making final preparations for our wedding and wasn’t sure I could take on another thing but she made it so easy. Finally our day was here and we had only talked a total of probably three times at that point but from the moment she showed up she put my whole bridal party at ease. You can see it in our wedding footage that she captured all of us at our best, and our most natural. When I got our teaser video I cried, and I think I must watch it everyday, knowing I have all the best moments from our wedding to show my kids one day, having the voices of my loved ones on video to listen to one day when they aren’t with me anymore, you can’t put a price on how special and important that will be someday and I’m beyond grateful that I had Kayla and Milestone to capture it all for me and my husband.
