I truly found a love for storytelling once I got into weddings. Weddings are these multifaceted microcosms of stories and relationships that continue to keep me fascinated and excited about capturing them. I find that my style leans towards an editorial, documentary storytelling side, with hints of sophisticated moody & edgy. You feel the emotions of the moment when looking back on your photos I have captured just for you.

Jess took our HUGE family photo shoot and handled all of us with ease and made literally and truly photos to treasure. We did a family photo shoot for our parents 50th wedding anniversary October of 2023. Our first family photos in 17’ish years. She has such a particular eye for making a large group feel and look so close in photos (which is hard with 6 kids spouses and kiddos and our gramma who was 95 at the time (almost 96 now). She made each pose, move, placement fun and kept the kiddos (and pup) into it. She gave such professionalism and love into everything she did with us that day. She was as much a part of our family as anyone could be handling all of us un photogenic turkeys. If you choose anyone for your independent, business, family, engagement/wedding or otherwise photos you should definitely choose Jess 3

*The easiest way to contact me is through my website* OMG HI!! I'm Brit! When I am not basking in the chaos of my 2 toddlers, 5 dogs, 3 cats, 10 goats, 6 ducks. 2 geese, 2 cows, 8 chickens, and my 400 hobbies, I am out there capturing your story. First and foremost I am an artist. Telling your story is my art. Oftentimes times photos add such an immense amount of pressure. One of my super powers is making YOU comfortable in front of my camera. I pride myself in my ability to do that.

Brit is professional yet so personable and I couldn’t imagine having anyone else shoot our wedding. She is so kind and caring, she took care of us every step of the way from engagement session through the big day and I knew without a doubt we wouldn’t be disappointed by booking her. Sure enough, Brit is a friend even months after our wedding and her pictures are ones I will cherish for the rest of my life. I am amazed every time I look at them and reminisce on such a beautiful day that Brit captured perfectly.

Trevino Entertainment, LLC

Salem, OR
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,600

I founded Trevino Entertainment, LLC in 2007 after graduating from high school in Salem, Oregon. I went to a small school, and I DJ'd many of my school's dances and events while a student. I love music - all types, genres, and eras - so it was something that came naturally. My focus has always been on the music. If you're looking for a personality to take over your event, awkwardly engage your guests, or lead cheesy games, then you should find another DJ. If you are looking for someone who is organized, professional, listens to your direction, makes clear and professional announcements, and lets the music do the work, then I'm your DJ.

The best decision I ever made in life was asking my partner to marry me. The second best decision I made was having Trevino Entertainment DJ and MC our special day. Five years later and we still have people raving about our wedding a large part of that was due to how amazing the music and MC was. From the day we selected them Michael and his team were hands on ensuring it would be the best day ever; making that the song for our first dance was perfect but also going above and beyond to make sure people were on the dance floor having a good time. My sister got married the same year that we did and spent 10x as much as we did on an entertainment and we still get compliments on what an amazing party ours was. Most importantly I always felt during the planning process that they were listening to us and invested in making this the best day ever which meant a lot. If you are looking for a team that will provide the perfect musical back drop for your best day ever look no further than Trevino Entertainment.

Awarded Best of Zola
I've been in the wedding industry since 1998 and have come across many vendors. I always take note of professionalism and organization when working with other vendors. Working in live audio, it always amazes me how many video companies are not prepared to hook into a DJ's system and having limited connects. Jason is a rarity in this fashion, he always has multiple ways to run audio so couples will get professional sound. Another big aspect with being a master of ceremonies is organizing all vendors to be present at key moments, i.e. formal introduction, toasts, cake cutting, first dance. Whenever I work with Steady State Studios, I never have to look or keep an eye out if they are present and ready to get their video footage. It's all these qualities and more that I look for when recommending a service. Steady State Studios has always exceeded my expectations.

From the moment we booked Northwest Hearts Photography, Naomi was exceptional in her communication and always willing to answer any questions we had. Her work is truly amazing - she is so caring, accountable, and creative in capturing all the special moments of our wedding day. Naomi was even down to help where needed, even tying our groomsmen's bow ties! The sneak peek photos she shared are exactly what we were hoping for and I would recommend Naomi any day of the week.

Hi there! I'm Brayley, a full-time Traveling Wedding + Lifestyle Photographer who operates primarily in the Western United States, & I would LOVE to be your wedding photographer! 🫶🏼 I grew up & now live in the PNW with my loving spouse & our sweet pup, Forrest, but after doing my undergrad in AZ, I just knew I needed to spend at least part time there, too. I LOVE my work & am passionate about capturing life's precious milestones, & doing so in a way that feels natural & authentic to my clients. Although I love all photography, I specialize in wedding, lifestyle, & business photography with a natural, earthy, classic & candid style.

Brayley was hands down the easiest and one of the best hires for our wedding. I found her through the Zola website as a photographer with five stars. I reached out, and she got back to me immediately. Her communication skills were top-notch, and I hired her that same day. My fiancé and I live in the Carolinas, and despite the three-hour time difference, we always felt in the loop, heard, and understood. From the first email to the wedding day, she was amazing. Now let's get to the important stuff... the wedding day. She was incredible. She got all the shots I wanted and then some. We were able to get all the photos done in a timely manner so that we could get back to the party and enjoy ourselves. Brayley captured both staged photos and the best candids. We cannot wait to get the rest of our album back. If you're thinking about hiring Brayley... DO IT!

Oregon Coast based. I love creating a full experience for my couples, and really developing a friendship so we can make your day truly you! Yes, I’ll be dancing at your wedding. I started my business after an incredibly hard personal loss because photos became a huge part of my grief journey. I love capturing the raw and real moments, the ones you look back on and wish you could have forever. Photos are timeless and I love creating small forever moments in time. I care deeply for my clients! If you’re ready to get barefoot, maybe a little messy and live in the moment I’m the photographer for you!

I can't express enough how happy we were to have Renee. She just so happened to be in town the weekend of our wedding so we didn't even have to pay a travel fee which she never had to do! She was a breath of fresh air in actually feeling like she was appreciative to be our photographer. After a long period of planning I was starting to feel like vendors were acting like they could care less to be selected and Renee was COMPLETELY the opposite. She sent us the sweetest personal touches and dug through all her photos to show me examples of photos that really mattered to me. I wanted more candid photos and she did not disappoint. Even when going through a lot in her personal life, she was there 100% on our day which was so amazing and I will have these photos forever to always remind me of our special day. We tried doing some phots before the ceremony and everyone wanted to come say hi or congratulations and Renee was amazing at being my personal bodyguard and keeping people at bay. She is the best!!

Hello and Welcome! I’m Olivia, a wedding planner & event coordinator in beautiful Eugene, Oregon. My favorite place is “outside,” and I laugh easily. You’ve heard that wedding planning is stressful and scary, and I’m here to change that. Whether you need a coordinator to manage your carefully-made plans on the big day, or a planner to guide you and your partner through the entire planning process from proposal to post-wedding thank you notes… I’m here for that. I’m here for all of it. I'm here for YOU!

Awarded Best of Zola
Olivia is worth her weight in gold! My partner and I got married at the end of June and had a wonderful wedding thanks to Olivia and her care, enthusiasm, patience, and attention to detail. Wedding planning is not for the faint of heart and early on in the wedding planning process my partner and I realized we were way in over our heads and needed help. I stumbled across Olivia’s day of coordination services, Round Pearl Events. She was happy to answer our questions before we even officially booked with her. Throughout the next ten months, we met with Olivia for our formal meetings, but she was also so responsive via email and text to any questions we had. She was very patient and compassionate in helping us navigate some tricky family situations and provided insights into making our vision of the day really come true.Olivia helped us coordinate challenges that we weren’t expecting, like how to plan childcare for all of the nieces and nephews we were excited to have on our special day. One of the most helpful things about working with Olivia is her many connections to vendors here in Oregon! Before we met Olivia, I would spend hours researching vendors and had no idea how to vet them or choose one and was incredibly overwhelmed. Olivia took out the guesswork and extensive research piece of the process and helped us find vendors in our price range that still provided a great service! Her help was invaluable, allowing us to spend the last month leading up to the wedding focusing on the fun experiences with family and each other. And when the day of the wedding finally did arrive, it was so beautifully organized and coordinated that we had to do nothing but enjoy our day with our family and friends. Olivia has so many tricks up her sleeve of how to make a wedding go smoothly and just in general is a compassionate, fun, and wonderful human being to work with! I had so many people come up to me during and after the wedding to say it was one of the smoothest wedding days they had ever experienced and we owe that all to Olivia. She truly helped us have the most beautiful and stress free day! My only regret is I don’t have any friends getting married any time soon that I can refer Olivia to!

Katie was an absolute pleasure to work with! We weren't sure if what kind of photos we wanted but Katie was able to give easy and clear poses that gave us stunning photos. The part I admired the most was her pulling us aside during dinner to capture the only sunlight that peeked from the sky that day, something that was unintentionally so meaningful to my husband because in that moment of sunshine he felt his late brother was there with us. She captured some of my favorite photos during that moment. Thank you Katie!!

We were thrilled with Nikki and the team at Nicole Briann Photo! From the beginning, communication was prompt, clear, and so friendly - Nikki made us feel like old friends. On the wedding day, they arrived early with a detailed shot list to ensure we got all the photos we wanted, while remaining discreet so as not to intrude on the moments. The quality of photos is truly excellent; high resolution, beautifully composed, and full of emotion. Nikki perfectly captured the most special moments of our wedding day. Every penny spent was worth it for memories we'll cherish forever. We couldn't recommend Nicole Briann Photo more - Nikki and her team were an absolute joy to work with and the final product is stunning!

  • Caters to out-of-town guests

Venue considerations

  • No in-house catering options
  • Large venue, not ideal for small guest lists
  • Does not have a dance floor
Navarra Gardens truly is a hidden gem. My husband and I booked this venue for our September wedding and it was everything we could have asked for. It was the first and ONLY venue my husband and I toured and we knew immediately that it was perfect for us. Karen was extremely helpful and we were impressed with the number of rentals available from her. The accommodations on site were also very helpful, as my bridesmaids and I were able to stay on the property the night before. The only negative experience I had was occasionally not having clear communication via email with Karen. At times, certain details would get mixed up or misinterpreted, which caused me some stress. However, I had read some reviews before booking the venue that also mentioned this, so I was not surprised. In the end, everything worked out perfectly and these miscommunications did not affect the wedding day. If you are looking for a beautiful venue, I would absolutely recommend Navarra Gardens!

I have been planning events for the last 20 years, on the side. I have always loved hosting people, and I've done a few bridal and baby showers. At my previous job, I helped plan several employee luncheons and holiday parties, with about 100-150 employees attending. I even led the planning a few times. In the summers of 2021 and 2022, I became an on-site wedding coordinator for a local venue, with 5 weddings each summer. In 2023, I coordinated 11 weddings (from full planning to day-of coordination), a large gala for non-profits, an annual fundraiser, a memorial service (for 300+ guests) and a surprise birthday party.

I had the pleasure of working a wedding with Erin that I was photographing. Let’s just say a lot went wrong that day thanks to Mother Nature but Erin handled everything quickly and with grace. She was so easy to work with as another industry professional and she really cared about honoring her brides & grooms vision for the day.

Hi, I'm Niki. Thanks for being here! I am a 29-year-old collector of hobbies, tattoos, and cats. I photograph weddings, elopements, and boudoir in the PNW and beyond. A 2023 bride said this: "Niki was the absolute best choice as our elopement photographer! She asked all of the right questions and helped capture the most important day for us with perfect photos and an unmatched way of keeping the day fun and stress free. Niki is truly one of a kind, her photography skills are hands down amazing and after the experience of working with her we consider her a friend too! "

We can't say enough good things about Niki! Working with her was a phenomenal experience. Her communication is great, and her flexibility and willingness to meet us wherever was so appreciated. At our engagement shoot she immediately put us at ease and we felt so taken care of, and the results were fabulous. At our wedding she was able to take charge when we needed her to and blend into the background when we were living in the moment. She is so talented and so easy to work with, we cannot recommend Niki highly enough!

What do I love about weddings? All of it. The storyline is built in, both sides are dressed up to the nines. Both get to express how they truly feel without the normal social repercussions telling you that you are too gushy or emotional. Family coming together to celebrate your love story. The food, the drinks, the party the dancing. And showing it all in a film that's warm hearted, uplifting, fun and beautiful. Showing the big celebrations along with the quiet little moments that connect us with what it means to be human. I look forward to sharing your day with you. -Seth

10/10 highly recommend working with Seth! I knew I wanted a videographer but instantly questioned my decision since I’m not one for being on camera or being the center of attention.. however, Seth made it so seamless and easy with his great energy! When I met Seth, I immediately felt comfortable with him and knew there’d be nothing to worry about! If anyone is questioning having a videographer for any reason, I would definitely consider meeting him! Your wedding day will come and go so quickly, but the pictures and videos will last a lifetime. If you want to ease your stress and anxiety.. Seth is the only way to go
