At The Luke Films. Since our inception in 2016, we've been dedicated to capturing the magic of weddings in a unique, dynamic, and fun way. We believe that every moment of your special day deserves to be celebrated and preserved with utmost care and creativity. We have covered more than 200 weddings.

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!

I've been a wedding & special event florist for over 4 years. I've done it all from backyard weddings to royal weddings at the Ritz Carlton and can definitely bring your vision to life! No idea is too big or too small.

I just have to share how thrilled we were with Blossom Republic for my daughter’s wedding at Ellis Preserve. They truly went above and beyond to make the day perfect. From the initial consultation to the big day, they were fantastic to work with. They really listened to what we wanted and offered thoughtful suggestions that made everything even more beautiful. The floral arrangements were stunning—every bouquet, centerpiece, and decoration was just right. The flowers looked fresh and vibrant, and they tied the whole theme of the wedding together beautifully. It was clear that they genuinely cared about making the day special. They were organized, attentive, and so easy to communicate with. It was a huge relief to know we could trust them to handle such an important part of the celebration. Thank you for making our daughter’s wedding day unforgettable. The flowers were perfect, and we couldn’t have been happier with your work.

I know yanelsi through mutual friends and having used her years ago to my daughter's prom makeup. I knew she did amazing work but I wasn't sure if she could deal with my problem skin. I contacted her and shared worries with her, she not only reassured me I would be ok but also went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. The make up was flawless. I was nervous about what make up does to my skin but all of the products she used were light and moisturized my face. I couldn't be happier with my experience and will definitely use her again and again. You will not be disappointed

What an incredible band! The dance floor was packed all night! At one point during our daughters outdoor wedding, the power needed to be shut down due to lightning. CCO didn't let that stop them as the horn section continued to play and kept the party going. All night long, our guests started every conversation with, "where did you find this band?" They were shocked to find out that they were a Central PA band. Everybody assumed they were from NYC or Philly. Everything was perfect! 10 out of 10

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 !

Our videograoher, Max, was an absolute pleasure to work with. He made sure he knew our vision and captured it on the day of our wedding. Our wedding video came out amazing. We were also matched to two photographers who captured the rich moody tone we were looking for. Unfortunately one of the photographers was late to the wedding and missed our ceremony, and although the lead photographer did an excellent job capturing what he could by himself, this mishap resulted in a crushing lack of photos of my dad walking me down the aisle. Picture This Wedding did reach out with a sincere apology, and offered us some additional services at no cost, which we appreciated.

  • Serves Riverside, NJ

Relive the moments as you experienced them. When it comes to your wedding, what are you most excited about? The ceremony? Dancing the night away with family and friends? Indulging in the emotion of the day? The photos are important so you can relive each memorable moment. But the moments are only memorable if you take the time to experience them in the first place. This way, you'll not only experience the moments of your wedding day - you'll remember them well. Who better to photograph your experiences than a husband and wife team who understands the importance of this day. And the moments that shape it.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do we even begin with Ishan and Preeti of Ishan Fotografi?! Our experience with them was nothing short of amazing. My husband and I (and all of our guests!) would highly recommend Ishan Fotografi to any couple looking for talented, thoughtful, creative, adventurous, understanding, professional, responsive and downright fun photographers! I first got introduced to Ishan & Preeti a year before my wedding at another wedding they were shooting. I really liked their vibe/personality while working with the couple - they were really thoughtful in their approach and shots they took, had great ideas/visions and were really great at demonstrating poses for the couple because they're a couple themselves! I immediately reached out to them the next day to get to know them a bit more. Ishan and Preeti were very communicative from the beginning - answering any of our questions via email, text or phone call; inviting us to their place to see their work; asking us how the wedding planning was going; etc. We got along with them instantaneously and knew we didn't want to book anyone else. Not only were Ishan & Preeti great photographers, but also GREAT company! We loved every minute of our engagement shoot with them. It can get a little awkward taking photos in public, but Ishan and Preeti made it super fun and relaxed. That kind of energy and vibe cascaded throughout the wedding weekend. We were so appreciative of this, especially because they knew how to help us navigate stressful situations as they arose throughout the weekend and made sure our photos still came out great! They also took the time to walk around our venue and scope out the best places to take the different types of photos we wanted. We received our photos very quickly after the wedding. There are so many amazing shots we are having a hard time picking our favorites!! Definitely a good problem to have :) If we ever are in need of photographers again, we know exactly know who we'll be calling!

** Inquiries are only accepted from the form on my website! It's the only way to ensure I received your inquiry. ** My name is Jes and I am the owner of Jessica Lynn Photography. Photography has been a passion of mine since high school where I began shooting with a pin-hole camera! I would like to say I'm joking but I'm actually serious. My style is crisp and clean, I love all things candid and lifestyle, and I’m not scared to play in the shadows. While I understand the importance of posing, there is something so beautiful in letting my subjects (that’s you) be themselves!

Jessica Lynn Photography captured our wedding day beautifully! Despite not meeting before the big day due to scheduling conflicts, Jessica made me feel at ease like reconnecting with an old friend. Her communication was clear, effective, calming, and sooo understanding throughout the entire process. The quality of Jessica's work is simply breathtaking - her photography style resulted in airy, stunning, fun images that we will cherish. I especially appreciated Jessica's attention to detail in photographing all of my requested people. She also bustled my dress in a flash! Having Jessica there made me feel calm and in good hands. She also gave us such a wonderful surprise by giving us Polaroids at the reception - I was blown away!!!!!! I wholeheartedly recommend Jessica Lynn Photography for your special event photography needs.

LIAT (singer/songwriter) 

5.0

  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Riverside, 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.

My husband and I chose Liat to perform at our wedding and it was the perfect fit to make our reception memorable. My favorite part was Liat playing her guitar and singing as my husband and I shared an intimate first dance on the beach at sunset. Her voice was so beautiful and it made the moment perfect. She was easy to work with and extremely accommodating. She also was able to provide many different kinds of songs for everyone to enjoy. I would definitely recommend using her for your big day- you won’t regret it!

Jason came recommended to us from a few people who responded to a Facebook post I made in one of our local groups. We are so, so glad we decided to go with him! We had a very small wedding at our house and hired Jason to come do just an hour-long shoot (for a very reasonable price) so we could have a handful of formal shots and a few of our ceremony. He arrived right on time and ready to go. He was super friendly, laid back and professional and actually made us both feel at ease (which is tough because I hate being in front of a camera!) Even though it's the height of wedding season, he had a few preview photos for us to see within three or four days and the rest of the photos were ready for us within about two weeks? Just an amazing turn-around time. And although I'm burying the lede here, the photos were outstanding. I didn't expect very much from just an hour-long shoot, but we had so many "favorites" we really had a tough time picking which ones we wanted to have printed! We wholeheartedly recommend him if you're looking for a wedding photographer!

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.

I would highly recommend Kimberly Mufferi Photography. She was a dream to work with and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera! Kimberly shot our engagement, wedding and also a bridal portrait session with just me the day of our wedding-which I highly recommend! it was a great warm up for the wedding photos. She made everything so easy and we could not be more pleased with our photos! We will be using her for all future photos and recommend her to all of our family and friends!

Hey there, I'm Joy! Years from now when you look at your wedding photographs, I want all of the memories and emotions to come flooding back: the joy, the love, and the laughter. It’s so easy to live our lives, missing the sweetest moments because how quickly they fly by. Those sweet in-between moments that can be so easily missed are my favorite to capture. Whether it be your candid smiles, the tears shed on your wedding day, or your beautiful family laughing together, I find joy in capturing you being YOU! I love photography because through it, I’m able to share pieces of your story and create lasting memories.

Joy made us feel special and relaxed in the midst of a hectic day. She captured our love so beautifully and delivered photos that looked effortless and natural, which is exactly what we wanted! So much of that is owed to her encouraging words off-camera that made the environment feel comfortable even while being photographed. She wholeheartedly lives up to her name and brought sunshine to our already bright day!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
I found Richel on the Zola app. I liked her vibe and porfolio. We had to postpone our engagement pictures a few times sue to Covid and the holidays but she did not disappoint once we were able to get together. Richel is very responsive to emails and texts, she was prompt and a joy to be around. I only have sneak peeks from our wedding but I am confident all of the pictures will be beautiful. If you're a fan of light and airy photos you would be crazy not to hire Richel.

Frame of Reference photography came to fruition at the end of 2017 and has been in business ever since then. Moving from Indianapolis IN to Philadelphia PA in 2019 where the business has continued to grow and prosper. Holding a degree in both business and digital photography allows for a mixed understanding of both worlds and allows for the two worlds to coexist seamlessly for clients. Paired with excellent communication skills, understanding and creativity allows for the best experience possible for a client where the end goal is to capture your perfect day perfectly and forever.

Working with William is always an absolute pleasure. His attention to detail and ability to execute is second to none. Will really makes sure to not just listen to his clients, but really hear what they are saying. To take their vision and requests and really turn them into reality. From a vendor's perspective, Will is easy to get a long with and is more than happy to help in any situation. You don't have to worry about fighting for different shots, or getting enough time with the couple. Will puts the couple first, and if that means making sure that other vendors like a videographer get the perfect shot, then he is all in! I highly recommend hiring Will as your wedding photographer and would recommend any vendor or venue to work with him as well. You will NOT regret it!

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.

Denise was so fun and easy to work with. I stressed about the look of my photos and interviewed over a dozen photographers before finding Denise. Her photos are true to your vision while staying with her art. I’ve only received samples and I cannot wait to see the rest. She was so communicative and reassuring. Could not recommend her more.

Jen and the team at Kaleidoscope Weddings were absolutely wonderful to work with for our wedding. Their communication was top notch - Jen was always quick to respond to emails and phone calls, and kept us updated every step of the way in the planning process. She brings incredible knowledge and experience that put us at ease during a stressful time. On the day of, Jen was there whenever we needed her - whether it was bustling my dress with a zip tie when my bustle broke or helping me in the bathroom with my gown. Her attention to detail and thoughtful touches made our wedding day smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Kaleidoscope Weddings for their professionalism and personal care.

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!!

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!!

I can't say enough about the exceptional experience we had with Customized Occasions for our wedding decor. From the moment we connected with them, we knew we were in the right hands.

Hudson Table

  • Caterer
  • Starts at $1,000

Hudson Table is a culinary studio located in the heart of Northern Liberties in Philadelphia. We offer everything from cooking classes, to live chef competitions, to bespoke private catered events. Our catering department provides each guest with an extraordinary and memorable experience with a focus on impeccable service, chef-curated seasonal menus, and full customizability to exceed your expectations.

Hudson Table and its staff are a hidden gem for your wedding or special event. We hosted our rehearsal dinner for 45 people at Hudson Table in June 2022. Anne, Chef Doug, Christine and their staff were so accommodating and helpful throughout the entire process. Chef Doug crafted an amazing menu that catered to our large group and honored several dietary restrictions including vegans and nut allergies. Hudson Table is also BYO which helps keep an event like this within budget. The price point is so reasonable: we looked into numerous options and you cannot feed a group of 45 at this price point at any other venue in the city, and few others can accommodate this large a group. We opted for the additional barending staff and definitely recommend it, they were so helpful and the price was on-budget and elevated the event. Upon arrival, I was thrilled to see the space set up with table runners, and our event manager Christine had an eye for the space and helped us arrange our candles tastefully on some beautiful plateware she had on-site and set up the tables with pops of colored poetry. Hudson Table also has some outdoor seating which is great for a large event like ours, so we had run over into the outdoor space for seating, and Christine decorated those tales with some greenery. The photos from the outdoor space are STUNNING. Christine our event manager kept us on time and checked in with me and my groom frequently to make sure we were eating and to alert us when it was time for toasts, and when we're ready to clean up. Chef Doug also made sure we were eating while entertaining, and checked in about the quality of the food. The portions are generous, and even with 45 people we had leftovers. Hudson packaged the leftovers for us and our guests to take home which was such a pleasant surprise. My groom and I received so many compliments from our guests about the food and the space and were told it was one of the most fun rehearsal dinners they've ever attended. If you are looking for a casual, friendly environment where you can mingle with guests and eat to die-for food, honestly look no further.
