Mushmouth 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves Rutherford, NJ

Mushmouth plays every show like it's Madison Square Garden! Lead singer Bill's energy is off the charts - a mix of Bruce Springsteen, Mick, Jagger, James Brown and a sprinkle of David Byrne all rolled into one! The band, a group of longtime friends, pulls off note for note renditions of all the songs while also adding to the on-stage fun. The Mushmouth show consists of big hits, one hit wonders and lost nuggets from the 70's, 80's, 90's and beyond. From Glen Campbell to the FOO FIGHTERS, Duran Duran to Eric Church.

Over the last couple of years, my wife and I hired Mushmouth for our employee appreciation parties. They are extremely talented and know how to work a room. Their energy is infectious and ensures that all in attendance are on the dance floor. All dance moves are welcomed… We highly recommend Mushmouth and look forward to our next engagement. (My sister-in-law may be a Mushmouth stalker!)

Hoi Polloi 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Rutherford, NJ

A stable and fun act that has been serving the New Jersey/NY market for over 20 years. Very dependable, very responsive and helpful when asked for assistance or suggestions. We encourage our clients to come out and hear us live to decide for themselves. Much better than viewing a video and trusting it was all done live in one take.

Jim and the band are wonderful! He is so communicative and always answers in a timely manner. And the band is AMAZING! You can really tell that they love what they do. Our dance floor was packed all night. My brother had them at his wedding, I had them at mine, and my sister in law's sister is having them at her wedding too - says a lot! Can't wait to spend another night on the dance floor.

Felicia Graham Beauty 

5.0

  • Beauty professional
  • Serves Rutherford, NJ

My love of makeup began as a teen when I competed in pageants and talent shows. I honed my skills as a makeup artist while working for MAC Cosmetics as an artist and Cosmetic Manager. I left retail in 2011 to pursue my passion as a freelance artist and I haven’t looked back since. I’ve worked in film, television, fashion, print, editorial & bridal. I enjoy the versatility of it all and I feel blessed to be able to work in different genres. Whether it’s NY Fashion Week, a commercial shoot or natural beauty makeup for a bride my passion is to create and make people feel & look their very best.

Felicia was amazing to work with. She was very responsive and friendly from our first interaction. I took the risk of not scheduling a trial because of timing. I went into the my wedding day feeling a bit nervous about how my makeup would turn out. Felicia showed up to the venue on time and was so pleasant. She may not realize it but she really helped keep me calm during the entire process. I was fielding calls and questions during my makeup application. When I saw my face I couldn't believe it. I asked for a soft and natural glam with lashes and a pinky nude lip. I wondered if she'd be able to bring my vision to life and she did more than that. She far exceeded my expectations! She enhanced my facial features but didn't transform me. My skin looked buttery smooth. That's exactly what I wanted. Felicia stayed for the ceremony and touched me up. Then helped during our photoshoot and touched me up again. Then she helped me with my dress when I stained it. She will be my top choice any time I consider hiring a makeup artist. I'll be referring her to anyone who asks and even those who don't. Thank you so, so, so very much Felicia. You'll be hearing from me again soon!

Blaire Reinhard Band was absolutely amazing!!! From the minute I spoke with her, I knew they were the perfect fit for our wedding. We wanted a band that would get our guests up and dancing the whole night, and that is exactly what happened. Each member of the band was incredible and so talented. So many of our guests told us that it was the best band they've ever heard...and we agree!! We told them we trusted their music choice and they killed it! It was a perfect combination of old classics and newer fun music. If you want your wedding guests to be dancing the entire night, Blaire Reinhard Band is the band for you!

Mixer Sisters

  • Bar services & beverages
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Rutherford, NJ

Last year, my sister and I decided to start Mixer Sisters to supplement our teaching salaries during the summer. We have done well thus far, but we want to expand our services and be part of making personal celebrations unforgettable. We primarily work with weddings, but we have also worked at family barbeques, coming-of-age ceremonies, anniversaries, birthdays, and corporate events.

Having Mixer Sisters bartend our wedding was one of our best decisions regarding planning our day. In the weeks and days leading up to our event, they were always available when we needed suggestions and responded to our requests almost immediately. The owners of Mixer Sisters developed unique recipes for our signature drinks and were attentive to our guests' requests on our wedding day. I recommend Mixer Sisters to bartend any event as they will help to make your day unforgettable.

Lizzie Burger Photography

I’m Lizzie, a wedding & engagement photographer in New York and New Jersey. For more than a decade, I’ve been capturing life's great moments. On wedding days, I am known for my happy and relaxed presence, making sure you’re on time and smiling throughout your whole day.

Working with Lizzie through the entire process, from shopping for a photographer, booking, engagement shoot, planning, day of and photo delivery was the smoothest process imaginable. My husband and I felt as if we were chatting with a friend every conversation, meeting and event we spent with Lizzie. To put it plainly, she is built for this business, in and out. Our engagement photos and wedding photos were all beyond stunning. We received sneak peak photos within days of both of our engagement shoot and wedding. The sneak peak wedding photos were received NEXT DAY! Our full wedding album came one month and one day later. Lizzie had the pleasure of photographing us when it was 20 degrees or less during our engagement shoot and torrential downpours our wedding day. The photos capture only our love and the best moments of our life, you would never even know the elements were less than cooperative. As mentioned previously, due to the weather on our wedding day 99% of our photos had to be fully indoors. Every single photos was even better than we could imagine. We were spoiled with being able to get a few awesome stunning outdoor shots when the rain broke for a little bit during our reception. Lizzie came with two additional photographers day off, Jacky and Hannah, that worked seamlessly with her to help towards our stunning lifelong memories. If you want to add a vendor to your wedding team that will ensure you have the day of your dreams to look back on forever, run don’t walk to book Lizzie.

Liberty Hall Estate 

4.5

Union, NJ
  • Venue
  • Up to 150 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $1,500

Our historic house was built and finished in 1774 and was the home of New Jersey's first elected Governor William Livingston. Throughout time the house was purchased to the Kean family where they resided until the last resident passed away in 1995. Our 23 acres grounds are full of beautiful gardens. You may chose to get married in our gardens which can be found throughout the whole property. Guests will love exploring and walking around the grounds during some off periods of the event. A first floor house tour is also an option so you and your guests get to see the beauty of Liberty Hall Museum.

There were quite a bit of rules and miscommunications along the way. This made the experience, especially during the end of the engagement season and the actual wedding day a bit dramatic and exhausting. However, this could be avoided if every single detail is ironed out from the very beginning and you are giving consistent reminders of what you're anticipating your day to be like. Overall, the venue is gorgeous and every single area of it is grounds for awesome photo-ops. On a gorgeous day, you will absolutely not regret choosing this location. Not only is it super affordable, but they also give you the freedom to pick your other vendors to create your ideal wedding (as almost everything else is kind of "a la carte"). A bonus is that you get the whole grounds on your wedding day, so that's exciting for you and your guests!

I can watch a good romantic movie 100 times. I enjoy romantic dates and white wine I confess that my weakness is chocolate!! I could spend all day at the beach There is nothing more beautiful than watching the sunset with the person you love..My two kids and my husband are my world and my dog shows me everyday that love is unconditional.

Monica made me feel very comfortable through the entire process of working with her. You can tell the care she takes with each of her clients. She listened to me, asked me questions, and came up with a flexible plan of what to photograph and a timeline that worked with everything that we wanted. She was willing to do the not so traditional items we asked of her and was super helpful! She even brought an extra assistant on her own because she wanted us to have the best experience. After the day her communication and delivery of the photos was excellent! She was prompt and delivered beautifully produced photos. She even ended up sending us a beautifully made ornament for Christmas! I truly felt taken care of and considered, which I was not expecting at all! Highly highly recommend!

Hey, I'm Jaimee with two "E"s. I'm a New Jersey based Lifestyle Portrait and Wedding Photographer. I'm also a wife, new mom, and mediocre latte artist. Entertaining family and friends in my home is one of my favorite things to do. The more the merrier. Come over and I'll make you a latte. I promise. When I'm not working you can usually find me with my hair in a bun and a cute baby on my hip, or cuddling on the couch with my husband in our matching robes with our dogs watching a good crime series.

I cannot recommend Jaimee enough. Not only does she give you her all leading up to the event, she does it all the day of. She is professional, kind, and makes you feel so comfortable. She even SEWS. My strap broke before the ceremony and she fixed it with a bridesmaid in ten minutes. She’s incredible.

Black Bear Golf Club

Franklin, NJ
  • Venue
  • Up to 185 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $6,000

Whether you want a small gathering of 30 or a larger ceremony of up to 140 guests, Black Bear Golf Club has the perfect setting for your wedding day. The beautiful, outdoor gazebo is perfect for outdoor ceremonies with dramatic views from Pikes Peak to Longs Peak to serve as your wedding backdrop.

From start to finish, Black Bear Golf Club was a dream to work with for our 10/14/23 wedding. Lee was the greatest wedding coordinator a couple could ask for. She dished out helpful advice and suggestions, answered all our questions, and was warm and friendly every step of the way. She was a source of calm on wedding weekend and we're so grateful for her expertise. The food at Black Bear is generous and delicious. Couples have so many tasty options to choose from and your guests will not leave hungry. The cake that Black Bear supplies from Calandra's is equally incredible. The reception area is spacious -- there's two bars, ample seating, and a large dance floor. The room for cocktail hour is a nice inside/outside space, with enough room for guests to spread out, enjoy each other's company, and take in the scenery. It poured on our wedding day, so we weren't able to use the outside ceremony area, but the staff did an incredible job setting up inside -- the extra decorations and touches they added made it feel just as beautiful. If you get married in fall like we did, prepare to be wowed but all of the pumpkins, gourds, mums, and harvest vibes. Of course, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the mountains -- our guests couldn't believe how breathtaking they were as the fog rolled in, and the gentle wisps of foliage sprinkled within. Net/net: Black Bear is affordable in terms of the wedding industry; the food is delicious and bountiful; the scenery is beautiful; and the staff is friendly and helpful. I've been replaying this wonderful day in my head endless since the big day. THANK YOU for everything!

Floreal Blooms Luxury Silk Floral Rental Boutique

  • Florist
  • Serves Rutherford, NJ

The Floréal Blooms concept came to fruition while I was planning my wedding. After being blindsided by the actual cost of wedding flowers, I was motivated to find a more sustainable and economical alternative without compromising aesthetics. Our mission is to source quality silk flowers that not only photograph beautifully but also look amazing in person. I firmly believe that some traditions are made to be broken: It is time for a modern approach to event flowers that is: beautiful, sustainable, and waste-free.

Della was so kind and easy to work with. She incorporated everything I asked for into the arrangements and bouquets and made my vision come to life. She really listened to everything I wanted and made sure it was perfect. The flowers were beyond beautiful and everyone was blown away to find out they weren’t real flowers. Everything was absolutely amazing and really elevated my ceremony and reception spaces. The delivery, set up and pick up was also any brides dreams, everything was handled perfectly and I had nothing to worry about. I can’t thank you enough!

Dramatic, Art Deco Located in the heart of the historical Village of Ridgewood, NJ. Amenities include critically acclaimed culinary programming, a stunning bridal suite, our signature hospitality and much more… Let us make your memories of a lifetime! The Treasury at Felina is a neoclassical bank space that features marble columns, soaring windows, towering ceilings, and a wraparound mezzanine for cocktail hour. Elements of brass, marble, the iconic Bank Vault Door and the floating chandelier sculpture combine to impress and delight the scenes, promising celebrations never to be forgotten.

If you are looking for a perfect wedding venue, look no further, Felina is it! From the moment that my fiancé and I toured the venue we knew that we had to have our wedding there. Carissa was the absolute best. Every single question that we asked, she had an answer to. She was extremely responsive and in the days leading up to the wedding and on the wedding day she and her team made our day memorable. We are weeks out from our wedding and our guests are still raving about how good the food, drinks, and service was at Felina. The venue is gorgeous with the vault and floating chandelier. There are so many good spots to take gorgeous pictures. There are 2 bars and the drinks kept flowing! If you are worried about the ceremony and reception being in the same place, don’t stress! They flipped the room in 42 min flat and as our guests were eating and drinking on the mezzanine during cocktail hour. Our guests didn’t even notice the room flip. It was also nice that on the day of our wedding the Felina rooftop was open to the public. So after the reception our guests could go to the roof to buy their own drinks and enjoy the view of Ridgewood. I couldn’t be more happy with picking Felina to have our ceremony and reception and if I had to, I’d pick them 100 more times. Thank you for making our wedding day so special for me, my husband, our families and friends!

We got married at The Mansion on Aug 10th and there are insufficient characters in this review box to capture our gratitude for what an impeccable place this was to get married. We initially chose the venue for ease of the location (we live a few blocks away). I hoped the food would be good, since we couldn't do a tasting, and just trusted it would all work out. THESE PEOPLE BLEW ME AWAY. The staff is awesome, from the Matre D, to the Bridal Attendant, to all the ways Jim and Nancy helped us tend to ever detail of the event, it was the most perfect day. The food was so delicious. Our guests are still talking to us about it weeks later. The cocktail hour was incredible. The main course was the best piece of meat I've ever had in my life. Everything was so fresh, and so delicious. My only regret of my wedding was that I didn't eat more than just a few bites of everything. I woke up the next morning craving the rest of my filet mignon, lol. We went with the "minimum" of everything included because we were on a budget, but it was all so abundant, generous and tasty. Even the dessert platters that came with the meal were amazingly delicious. The space itself is luxurious and beautiful. We had the whole venue to ourselves and the whole thing was just magical.

Bri Johnson Weddings 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves Rutherford, NJ

I'm a beauty, boudoir, & wedding photographer living in New Jersey with my husband and two kitties. We’re both originally from Upstate NY (and I mean WAY upstate like Rochester) where we grew up, fell in love, and I studied photography professionally. I photographed my first wedding in 2010 and haven’t looked back. Too many “I do’s” to count and I am still getting excited over your dress, I’m keeping your friends and family laughing, and I cannot wait to congratulate you after the ceremony. I know how lucky I am to photograph such momentous milestones and create images you’ll cherish 50 years down the road.

Bri Johnson was BY FAR the best decision we made for our wedding. Her services go well beyond taking photos and her talent well beyond a typical wedding photographer. From the day we met her we knew she was the perfect fit for us. She has a great personality that’s kind and lighthearted, but tough at the same time - the perfect mix to corral a crazy family like ours on the wedding day. She’s also VERY organized and guides you through every step of the process with timely checkins and articles to help make decisions or manage yourself (e.g. pros and cons of a first look, how to prepare for a rainy wedding day, what to pack for the day of, etc.). She worked tirelessly on our wedding timeline and served as our mentor to help estimate timing. She found creative solutions to fit in everything that was important to us and adjusted it as needed when we got closer to the day. Her responsiveness is incredible. Unlike other vendors you may encounter, you will never wonder where you are in the process with her. Most times she anticipates your needs and questions, but when those random thoughts pop up she is always quick to answer calls or emails. Her turnaround time is notable as well. We had sneak peaks of our engagement session and wedding the NEXT DAY and our full galleries shortly afterwards. Our family and friends were thrilled to see the photos so quickly, as were we. Bri is the quarterback of your wedding day and she’s a darn good one! Prior to the wedding she contacted the other vendors to make sure they had copies of our timeline and were on the same page in terms of run-of-show. She made sure we stuck to the timeline and kept the day moving like a well oiled machine. That said, Bri navigates through changes and wedding hurdles with ease. For example when we stayed longer after the ceremony because the light outside was just right or when my father decided to do a last minute speech at the reception. She didn’t skip a beat. The photos she takes will have everyone wishing they hired her for their wedding day. Bri has a way of making you feel comfortable in front of the camera and in doing so captures the best version of yourself. She has an amazing eye for photography and can literally make a stone wall by a dumpster look like a stone wall in a meadow (true story). Her photos capture emotion and a certain je ne sais quoi that will have you wishing she could follow you around and take every photo of you from that day on. We cannot recommend Bri enough and will gush about her to whoever will listen. She is a true professional, with great talent and an amazing personality to match. Read through all of her amazing reviews, but look no further…she’s the best.

WHERE DO I EVEN START!? When I got engaged, I didn’t realize one of the hardest things about planning a wedding was going to be finding a wedding photographer. I loved so many photographers that I met with, but I didn’t connect with any of them the way I connected with Gabby. Her rich upbeat personality and knack for being so personable is amazing and very much radiates from her the moment I met her. That alone completely convinced me, but she knocks it out of the park with her perfect and thorough organization skills. Not a single detail was missed and she was so understanding of my anxiety the day of my wedding I don’t even know how she does it. She wasn’t just my photographer she was also my therapist, haha! If you’re looking for a photographer that can not only capture your wedding beautifully but also contribute so much happiness I can’t recommend booking Gabby enough. I’m so excited for whatever event me and my new hubby are going to have just so we can hang with her again!

Ricky Castillo & Havana Nights 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $450
  • Serves Rutherford, NJ

Within the pulsating heart of New York City's jazz scene emerges the unmistakable rhythms of Ricky Castillo's ensemble, a masterful blend of tradition and innovation. Castillo, a Havana-bred virtuoso who honed his craft under the tutelage of guitar legend Pat Martino, seamlessly melds the raw emotion of Cuban music and the intimate stories of the Buena Vista Social Club with the polished nuances of Latin Jazz, Bossa Nova, and Jazz Standards. His collaboration with Mayda Cuellar, an enchanting chanteuse from Havana's National School of Arts, adds layers of Son Cubano, salsa, and Latin pop to their repertoire.

Awarded Best of Zola
Ricky Castillo was an absolute lifesaver! We reached out last-minute for our wedding, and not only was he prompt and professional, but his performance was simply mesmerizing. The fusion of Havana's soulful vibes with the sophistication of jazz set a magical tone for our special day. A truly unforgettable experience, and we're eternally grateful for his incredible talent!

The Meadow Wood is an absolutely beautiful, elegant venue (inside and outside) with every detail accounted for. That theme continues from start to finish with all they do. The food was not only delicious but was presented in such a way you couldn’t help but simply just say “Wow". We are happy we took a moment to pause and take it all in - from cocktail hour displays, to main course plating, to desserts that went on forever …. – “Amazing!!”. We appreciate all the work, professionalism and hands on attentive approach from the staff (a special shout out to Juan and Becky!!). None of this could have been accomplished without them working together in the same manner. It was seamless. Thank you, George, John, Tim, Charlie, Frank and all at the Meadow Wood for making our daughter and son-in-law’s wedding “the best day ever “as they begin their new life together as a married couple

  • Serves Rutherford, NJ

On wedding days, I want my couples to know that I'm there to capture more than just portraits in the perfect golden hour lighting. Photos should bring you back to the day they were taken, the same way that souvenirs bring you back to a trip or country that you absolutely loved. To me, being a wedding photographer means more than just taking photos at a party. It's about taking the right photos that will have the right impact; the ones that will transport you through movement, colors, and vantage points right back into that incredible day. That's why "more than just portraits" is the best way to summarize what I photograph on wedding days.

Stop your search and book Olivia- she is AMAZING!!! I knew from looking at her work immediately that we had to have her for our wedding and she went above and beyond. Her work is stunning - she captures the most beautiful photos where you can feel the emotion behind them. She is also so kind, so professional, and makes you feel perfectly at ease on a day that can often feel so hectic. We could not be happier that we had Olivia photograph our wedding day.

Photography is a way to tell a story when words just don’t do it justice. I believe the best way to get to know each other is to find out what we have in common. My family is big and loud and full of love and laughter. Thankfully, my husband’s is the same and our parents, siblings, nieces and nephews are our whole world. My friends are right up there too! Some of my best friends have been in my life since I was in pigtails and footie pajamas and at this point, they ARE my family. I can't wait to chat and learn more about you!

We got Rosemary's name from my co-worker who had worked with her for her own wedding. I didn't even need to speak with any other photographers. After seeing Rosemary's work and speaking with her over the phone I immediately knew that I wanted to work with her for our wedding. Her relaxed and fun demeanor really spoke to me! Meeting Rosemary for our engagement session (included in the price of her services for our wedding) was such a great experience and further solidified that we had made the right choice. Her love of love, people, and the way that she prioritizes what you want truly exude from within and it makes the awkward process of having your photo taken completely comfortable and stress free. Rosemary was super easy to communicate with she made everything extremely straightforward, especially on the day of. Once we reviewed everything with her in the weeks prior to our wedding, she provided us with the most amazing timeline for the day of which we completely stuck to and were ready early! My husband and I did a first look so that we didn’t miss any of the party, which was an amazing experience. Rosemary suggested that this be a private moment and I am so glad that she did. She allowed us the time and the space to just be with each other for a few minutes before we flung into taking photos and her presence there during that very private moment was very calm, kind, and noninvasive. Utilizing her timeline and knowing when everyone had to be ready made things suuuuuper stress free for me. So much so that I had time to sit and relax and felt completely content knowing that we had gotten all of the photos that we wanted done. I couldn’t be happier with our photos and our families agree! We just got our album back and I could not be happier with the final product and the experience of putting that together with Rosemary. It was such a special day and having confidence in Rosemary and knowing that we were going to get the best pictures was priceless. We highly recommend working with Rosemary, she is a professional, talented, and a great person! Thank you so much for everything Rosemary!
