As Avery’s business grew, he brought in his brother Wes and best friend Landon Bell. Together, this talented trio works hard to bring the dreams of soon-to-be newlyweds to life. In addition to fueling the dance-floor and and crafting ambiance through music, the DJs also serve as MCs with natural ease and charisma. They ensure that introductions, announcements, and transitions run smoothly.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I had been to several weddings with Ace Wedding DJs as a vendor, and several without. Let me tell ya, there is a big difference! We knew we needed Ace Wedding DJs for our wedding this past June and they did not disappoint! Our lead DJ, Avery Echols worked closely with our other vendors to make the night run so smoothly. My husband and I truly did not have to think about anything and could just enjoy the night! Avery also CRUSHED the vibes!! After letting him know our top priority was making it a party and ensuring our guests had fun, he kept the dance floor packed all reception. Our booking coordinator, Wes Echols, was also great to communicate with. He always had very quick responses, provided us with a comprehensive and thoughtful questionnaire for the ceremony and reception, and was overall very helpful. We could not recommend Ace Wedding DJs more!!

  • Serves Rockford, MI

My name is Amanda Montgomery and I am Arrae Photography based out of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The name Arrae (pronounced [uh-rey]) came from my first initial and my middle name, Rae, added an extra r and made a new word. I wanted something unique that was also me, the idea came to mind one day and it just fit. Being a photographer is all I've ever wanted to do with my life. When I was 12 I saved up my babysitting money to buy my first 'big time' camera. I formed Arrae Photography in 2003 as a part-time venture while I worked at local photo labs, went full time in 2008.

Hi, I'm Mandy! I'm happiest at home with a cup of coffee (heavy on the cream & sugar), watching some HGTV (Fixer Upper anyone?!) & flipping through Instagram, with my beagle, Jack, snuggled on my feet. I love exploring new places with my sweetheart, Shawn, trying new foods, craft beer, coffee dates, Michigan autumns, and, of course, PHOTOGRAPHY! Thank you so much for stopping by my page. I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for you all, and I appreciate each and every one of you!

We are a videography and production company based in West Michigan, and we're not in business of filmmaking because we have to be, we're in it because we want to be. Each member of our team has a passion for film and wants to bring their unique art to your story. Based out of Grand Rapids and operating since 2009, our team focuses on capturing candid moments and a small number of formal shots in order to create a truly beautiful and cinematic film of your day. We will approach your wedding day with fair pricing and an unwavering commitment to capturing every important moment that you can cherish for years to come.

When looking into vendors for our wedding, we debated a videographer because of the cost; when we came across Unnammed Films, it was a no brainer. We were so impressed at the different services that they had to offer. The quality of work, the professionalism and communication, and they way they tell the story of your wedding day through video is a MUST HAVE. Our wedding went from a large guest list in Traverse City, MI to a small town backyard wedding in Saint Charles, MI because of COVID-19, and Unnammed Films was the first of our vendors to reach out and make accommodations for live video feed if that was something that we wanted for our guest who might not be able to make it. The flexibility was incredible. They captured the essence of our big day in the big and little moments. Things that we might have missed in the busyness of the day, we were able to look back on through this video. We are so happy with our decision to have Unnamed Films capture our day, we would choose them again and again for all of our videographer needs.

We are the wedding coordination company for the couple who is planning their own wedding but wants to have a stress free wedding day. We include timeline creation and 3 meetings to make sure we understand your wedding day completely and can manage it perfectly.

We cannot thank Elysia and the whole team at The Best Day Details enough for being the absolute MVP of our wedding! From the very beginning, she was attentive and organized, guiding us through every step of the planning process. Before the Week: Elysia was incredibly helpful during the planning stage, which I hadn’t necessarily expected since it was primarily coordinating services rather than full planning. Thank goodness for that! She offered invaluable advice and suggestions that made logistics so much easier. She coordinated with vendors, handled logistics, and took care of so many other details. Before the Ceremony: On the day of the wedding, Elysia was calm and composed. She managed the timeline expertly (which is saying a lot since I must have been a bit frantic with everything I crammed in), ensured everything was in place, and resolved some last-minute issues. During the Ceremony: She made sure everything went off without a hitch! The energy during the ceremony was so much fun because she took care of anything that could have made it challenging. During the Reception: Now THIS is where Elysia was the real MVP. There were some significant timing, logistics, and vendor obstacles, and Elysia handled ALL of them. Her attention to detail made our day, and everyone else's, just incredible. She kept everything running smoothly, managed the timeline, and addressed any concerns we had without us even noticing. Elysia made our wedding day everything we dreamed of and more. We couldn't have done it without her expertise and dedication. If you're looking for someone who will truly go above and beyond, look no further!

Wildcrest Studio, established by Jessie Harris, is a natural light, lifestyle photographer. I aim to capture the magic of your wedding day and you as a unique couple through peerless, stunning photographs!

I am going to try and get off my soapbox for this review but I make no promises. Hiring Jessie Harris and Wildcrest Studios for my wedding was the single best decision I have ever made, except for marrying my husband. We had a small wedding, with a small budget, a very specific vision, no planner or coordinator, and no freaking clue what we were doing. From my first phone call with Jessie I knew that she was something special. She is experienced, organized, diligent, detail oriented, creative, kind, patient, and funny as heck. She truly listens to what you are hoping for and - somehow, despite all odds - she makes it happen. She LITERALLY threw off her shoes and climbed into Lake Michigan to get a shot of my husband and I on a dock at sunset. She kicked the groomsmen out of the area during our first touch because it was ruining the moment and I was too emotional and nervous to say anything. She drove across the state to shoot a pre-wedding reception for us. Alex, the second shooter, tied my husband’s bow tie for him before he walked down the aisle… and my brother’s… and my dad’s… and I’m pretty sure half the groomsmen’s bow ties too. She helped us create the timeline for our wedding day. She even gave us advice on what to pick for our first dance. And, to top it all off, she has provided us with the most unbelievable and stunning engagement, reception, and wedding day photos I could have imagined. Grateful doesn’t begin to cover how I feel when thinking about finding Jessie and Wildcrest Studios. Do yourself a favor and at least send an inquiry. Or don’t, and I’ll keep her all to myself :)

Our goal is to lighten your load, allowing you to fully focus on marrying the love of your life. Trust us to handle all the coordination and planning services, ensuring a seamless and unforgettable wedding experience for you.

April was FANTASTIC!! I was unsure whether or not I wanted a coordinator- I had a hard time “giving up” control of my big day. When I first spoke with April- I knew that she was THE ONE! Kind, patient, understanding, and also a little bit of a perfectionist. ;) I hired April as “Day of Coordinator” only. April took everything I gave her on my wedding day and ran with it. She took my planning binder and I said “Good Luck!” She made it all happen! She quickly and effortlessly made my dream wedding perfect. She helped with decor, setting up, getting my dress on, helping me use the bathroom, putting my shoes on… anything you could think of!! And the professionalism and kindness was next level! A few days/weeks later, my bridesmaids told me about little fires that April put out that I had no idea about- problems with the DJ, the groomsmen trying to get drunk before walking down the aisle (April stopped them), and our Happily Ever After sign that kept falling. She handled all of this without me even knowing! The best decision I made (besides who to marry) on the day of my wedding was hiring April!! You won’t regret it!!

Michelle did a video for our wedding and I just adore it. My husband and I had a non-traditional wedding at my father's house with a lot of friends/family, but only a few vendors present. I wanted the day to be as low key as possible and was picky about who we hired for the event. Michelle was amazing in every aspect. Before the wedding, she was very communicative. I did not have a wedding planner and wanted the day to be as natural as possible--no strict schedule, but capturing the moments which were special to us. We outlined the event day together and, day of, she was incredible. We had some hiccups with our AV set up and she went above and beyond to help us out with them. She was so thoughtful about how she captured the day and blended right in with our guests. My husband and I both cried when we got our video after the event--as did our friends. I would absolutely recommend her!

We booked Warehouse 6 to host our ceremony and wedding reception in one place, and Lynn and her team went above and beyond to deliver an incredible experience that matched our vision for the day. It was important for us to have a venue where we could add our own touch and Warehouse 6 was exactly that place. Lynn is highly professional, organized and easy to work with, which made it easy for us to share our ideas and figure out how to make them a reality. We wanted to have a colorful, garden party style wedding and we were able to transform Warehouse 6 exactly into that. Plus, the beautiful, handmade wood tables elevated the space and made it easy for us to simplify our decor. The end result was a wedding day that reflected exactly who my husband and I are as a couple, and made it possible to have a perfect, love-filled day! Plus, it's located in downtown Holland which made it a fun location for our guests and family to enjoy the town. We would book Warehouse 6 if we could plan a wedding all over again!

It is really hard for me to put into words just how amazing Katie and her husband Matt are. We found them through our friends who used them for their wedding. We knew we wanted to do a destination wedding, and our friends had attended one the year before in Jamaica which Katie and Matt photographed. Because of that wedding, they chose them to be their photographer for their wedding in Michigan. After we saw the photos from the destination wedding and our friend's engagement photos we knew they would be perfect for us. After we saw our friend's wedding photos we knew made the right choice. Katie and Matt from the beginning were super helpful and were incredibly integral on our wedding weekend and day. When they arrived in Mexico, they met up with us and started to work immediately. They came to our rehearsal helping us decide where to put our camera for filming the ceremony and other helpful advice for the day of. They helped find the PERFECT first look location. On the day of the wedding, Katie and Matt were energetic and came ready to help put us to ease. Katie and Matt just have a way of making you feel at ease and then make you look like models. They did a great combination of classic portraits but a lot of candid photos mixed in (which were my favorites). They stayed through the our whole reception and the photos we got look out of a bridal magazine. We had a secondary shoot the day after as a Trash the Dress photo shoot, and the sunset photos we got look like post cards. The only down side of using Katie and Matt is that they gave us too many photos we want to print and get framed! Book them for your destination wedding (or Michigan wedding) and you will absolutely be making the best decision!

Hi, I'm Avery! I am West Michigan born and raised, with a bit of a roaming side. You can find me traveling the great outdoors, reading a good book or sunset watching at the lake. I thrive on God’s great love and creation. Farming runs deep through my family roots, so I guess you could call me a farm girl. I’m a homebody at heart, with a passion to adventure. I fell in love with photography when I picked up my mom’s old camera in middle school. I'd capture everything from blades of grass to the cattle on my farm. 5 years later, using my cattle as models has turned into photographing weddings and capturing everything from portraits to families.

My husband and I attended a wedding at the Bissell Tree House in May of 2022, and before we were even engaged I said to him that I wanted us to get married there. This location is so stunning at any time of the year, but during our October 12, 2024 wedding, it couldn't have been more perfect. We had an absolutely gorgeous day and the venue was surrounded by fall colors and just a gorgeous ambience. Hilariously it started raining just as our ceremony was about to start, but because of the overhand of the roof above the ceremony location, no one got wet and we got to have a magical ceremony while the rain was coming down around us. The team is very helpful and worked with our vendors so well. Many of our guests complimented how organized and kind the staff were. Do yourself a favor and get married at the Bissell Tree House, you won't regret it!

When I was looking for a wedding photographer, Sydney stood out against the rest of them. She is so quick to email you back, is friendly and knowledgeable about all aspects of weddings. When it came to our engagement session she gave us ideas for locations and just made the whole experience so fun and easy. My husband hates his photos being taken and he enjoyed our engagement session and loved talking to Sydney's husband who was with her. When it came to our wedding day, Sydney has this awesome questionnaire that answers everything! There were questions on there I never even thought about!! She showed up early and found places for portraits and checked in on me. She's just the sweetest and made our day so special, even through the stressful parts. She was a blast at our reception dancing with everyone on the dance floor while taking photos, like I said she made the day even better. We were sitting in our hotel room the night of our wedding and I got a Facebook notification from Sydney Marie Photography, Sydney had posted 10 photos from our wedding, I couldn't believe it and it made me so happy. I can't thank Sydney enough for everything, if you're looking for a photographer do not hesitate and hire her.

After being adopted from China, I fell in love with everything creativity. I was always drawing, editing my friend’s insta pictures for fun, and of course having mini photoshoots. I felt so much joy when it came to creating art that could be saved forever. It didn’t take until college that I used all my money from my savings to buy my own camera- yeah I definitely knew my priorities. When I had time in between classes and studying I devoted it to taking pictures of everything. Wedding photography was a complete different realm of opportunities. Capturing the sweetest day and to gift that is unmatched.

Rhythm & Lights

  • DJ
  • Serves Rockford, MI

SO Rhythm & lights was founded in 1989. And the premise is really simple, simple pricing that includes everything we got. We only have two add ons. If you need the ceremony, and if you want a photobooth. Our teams going to setup all the lighting, and give you their all every single time, because the price doesnt dictate if they do that. We got you covered from every aspect. We do not do hourly rates, so no need to worry about the smallest details. BEcause we worry about the smallest details. You can just have FUN at your wedding.

Rhythm and lights exceeded our expectations. They were easy to work with every step of the planning process and very helpful. As a nervous bride this was very important, their attention to detail throughout was a huge weight off my chest, knowing I didn’t have to worry about anything. Mitch was our dj and he was absolutely amazing. The reception flowed flawlessly and the dance floor was full all night. (Ask for Mitch) I can’t imagine how different my wedding would have been if I hadn’t booked Rhythm and lights! Literally the best ️. Thank you!!!

We had the most wonderful experience at St. Cecilia's on our wedding day! From booking to the day of the wedding, Nadine was so helpful! Communication was wonderful leading up to the day. We even got a layout of our table setup to send to other vendors. They were also so accommodating when we decided to move the buffet to the lower level of the building. Choosing this venue was truly a worthwhile investment! We were originally concerned about the option of only one bar vendor. But we now know why they prioritize them! Martha's catering went above and beyond for us and the bartenders were wonderful. They clearly know the venue and have a lot of experience. So do not let the catering options deter you, clearly St. Cecilia's has them picked for a reason and you can trust your vendors! Have I mentioned that the building is gorgeous!?! The ballroom is stunning and the rooms are all so magical. It is such a beautiful wedding venue. Our guests had a wonderful time!
