Kim did my hair for my bridal shower and wedding day. She is so beyond professional and walked me through what hair style would best suit my dress. We ultimately chose a romantic half up and down which lasted all night long. She also did all of my bridesmaids hair the day of and was able to get through their styles with ease.

Trisha was a life saver. My husband and I were absolutely in awe with how above and beyond she went in the months leading up to the wedding, and the day of came together nearly perfectly. Multiple guests described the wedding as the “best they had ever been to”, and knowing how many different vendors and items we had to coordinate, we owe a lot of that to Trisha. She scheduled meetings with vendors, provided tons of product and vendor recommendations, and coordinated setup and cleanup among many other tasks. We had a lot of moving parts the week of the big day, and she was able to set me at ease for the portions that I could not supervise myself. We were able to actually let go and enjoy the day thanks to Trisha, which was very important to my husband and I. Highly recommend using her. 100% worth allocating a portion of our limited budget to her planning services.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am a Filipino and so is my bridal party. I really needed someone who understood an Asian face. I also needed someone who could listen to me, my needs and those of my party to help us all look and feel our best. Rie delivered and more! From planning the day and on our trial, Rie was very kind, open to suggestions and creative when it came to my vision. She was patient to try out the different hair dos I wanted to sample. On the day, she amped up her talent and made me look even more beautiful than when she met me for a trial. Even my FIL thought so! You know it’s real when men notice! Haha. She also took care of my mother, who is hard to please, but was able to say good things about her hair and make up that same day too. Overall what a beautiful experience. I kind of want to get married again just to be able to redo the whole beautification and process! And of course that is only possible with Rie. Many thanks Rie!!! Pics from Nathalie Garcia

Starting at Long Island Beauty School in Hauppauge, then attending Make-Up Designory in Manhattan. After working in salons and freelance all over the NY Tri-state area, she now runs her own business, Palla Beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
I could not be happier with my experience with Palla Beauty. Nicole was so easy to work with from my first inquiry through the wedding. I wanted to embrace my natural curls for my wedding so it was important to me to find someone I could trust to handle curly hair. Nicole made me feel at ease (she has naturally curly hair) and at my trial I knew I made the right decision. She even emailed me ideas to help get closer to my hair vision in the time between my trial and wedding. She also specializes in natural glam which is exactly what I wanted- to look like myself, but enhanced. She brought Cassi for makeup and Nichole for hair for my mom, sisters, and niece, and they both killed it. It was misty/rainy all day and both my hair and makeup held up great. I got to reunite with Nicole at my sister’s wedding four months later :)

It was an absolute treat to work alongside Marybeth during our most recent collaboration. Her beautiful photography is just the tip of the iceberg. Marybeth is professional, imaginative, true to her word, and passionate about her work. Our photoshoot took place on a rather dreary, cloudy, summer day.

  • Florist
  • Serves Shirley, NY

Self-proclaimed plant nerds, we are two kick a** horticulturists who met in the public garden world and have carved a place for ourselves in the floral biz. Weddings are our jam. With the creative process at the heart of all we do, hands-on service is an understatement. From day one to day-of, we got you. Plan, design, deliver- cross them off the list. Oh... and we will oogle your invites, hug your families, and tear up when we deliver your blooms. We can’t help it. We are so grateful. Client focused and design driven. Your big day is our big day at nectar&bloom. Trust the process and we’re in!

When working on wedding planning, we knew right away that we wanted to use nectar& bloom for our florals. We wanted something fun, unique, and just not what you always see at most weddings in our area. Lisa and Ann Marie were amazing in their communication and breakdowns of what could work with our budget and venue space, and were very adaptable and helpful as changes came along the way! We had high expectations coming into our wedding day, but they were absolutely blown out of the park once we saw everything come to life! From my bridal bouquet to the AMAZING floral arch and centerpieces, we were absolutely thrilled with how bright, colorful, fun, and unique our florals were. Our guests are still raving about the flowers that we had, and I even sent out our flowers to be preserved so that I have this amazing piece of our day treasured forever. I would highly recommend using the n&b team for your wedding day; whether you are looking for something more traditional or going for something more unique and personalized, you are in great hands with Lisa and Ann Marie designing your dream day!!

She was easy to get in touch with, patient, and communicative. I am not someone who gets hair and makeup done very often (my bridal party also had others like me), and Diana and her hairstylist offered advice and suggestions in a very pleasant way.

I am typically a Type B person in my life, but when it came to our wedding day, I wanted everything to be exactly how I wanted it. This included researching quite literally hundreds of photographers. As a super DIY wedding, I wanted to be able to look back on our photos and be able to relive it without it feeling overly filtered or untrue to how it was in real life. When we came across Fireside Sparrow, not only did the style of photography stand out to us as authentic, but you could just feel that Stephanie was authentic as well. She and Steve fit our vibe perfectly leading up to and the day of our wedding. Her attention to detail and ability to be professional but also feel like your number one fan made our wedding day run so smoothly. They’re now a part of our story forever.

I had a small backyard wedding in August 2020, and came across Hometown on Instagram. Jaclyn understood my vision from the first convo we had. I wanted all tables to have different flower arrangements and at the end of the night, I saw my friends walking away with my arrangements to keep as their own! Even for my bouquet, Jaclyn put together something she thought I’d like and pointed out the flowers and why I’d love them. It was such an easy and enjoyable collaboration!

Genie artistry was absolutely incredible for my wedding. We were a big group, 12 for makeup and 10 for hair. They finished us early, had time for touch ups and nothing about it felt rushed. The morning moved seamlessly and smoothly. Jeanine and her team are one of the best. I also had an extremely diverse bridal party and they were able to accommodate that and work on everyone. They truly highlighted everyone’s best features and each girl came out stunning. With 3 make up artists and 2 hair stylists you may worry about consistency but each member of the team is so talented, you cannot even tell who did which girl. We started at about 9am and by 6pm for the ceremony everyone’s hair and makeup was perfectly in tact. This is a rare team who can deliver excellence on 12 different girls in a 5 hour period.

I have been fantasizing about my own wedding day since I was about three years old and continue to be just as excited about everything wedding related today. I am a crazy cat lady, soon to be wife, and absolute Office fanatic.

Recently engaged? Congrats! Now don’t wait another second to hire Britt Lee wedding photography!! I had received Brittany’s name from another vendor and instantly fell in love with her work! After meeting her in person and seeing how sweet, calm, kind, organized she was, I knew there was no other choice for our wedding than Britt Lee wedding photography! Brittany played such an important role in our wedding right from the beginning. From helping us establish a timeline straight away that would allow her to capture hundreds of gorgeous natural light photos (we got married in December so daylight was sparse!), vendor recommendations, and constant communication and advice throughout the entire planning process (about anything and everything I asked her!), it’s like she was our personal wedding planner! And I cannot forget the Engagement session! We couldn’t get over how great the photos were (neither one of us ever had done anything like that before or had our picture taken professionally), and we had way more fun than we ever expected (yes, my husband even admitted he had a good time!) When the big day came, Brittany arrived (early none the less) and got right to to work. She kept us on track so we never had to stress about time or anything! I’ve been in a lot of weddings these past few years and I’ve never been more calm or had more fun “getting ready” than I was on the morning of my wedding, and Britt a huge played a part in that! She gives awesome direction and never makes you feel like you are “posing.” And her assistant (also Brittany!) did a great job keeping my husband and his rowdy group of groomsmen on time as well! We had such a blast at our wedding and we were able to truly enjoy ourselves knowing Britt was behind the camera capturing it all! Brittany delivered more than half of our gallery just two weeks after the wedding and the remaining photos 2 weeks after that. To receive our entire gallery in full under a month from our wedding (in the thick of the holiday season mind you) was absolutely mind blowing! But most importantly, the photos were more beautiful than we could have ever imagined! The variety she captured not just of us but of all our guests throughout the day was amazing. I could go on and on about how thrilled we were with Britt Lee wedding photography. Bottom line, Britt is a GREAT person, someone I am so happy now to call a friend, incredibly professional, and super talented. Everything you could ever want from the person responsible for capturing one of the best days of your life to share and look back on together with each other and your family and friends for years and years to come!! Brittany/Britt Lee wedding photography is simply the BEST!!

My love of art and nature have led me to where i am today. I thrive when I can create and to be able to make a work of art with flowers, truly brings me a great joy. I want to bring your visions to reality through flowers on your special day or exciting events. Over my years of training in both traditional art and floral design I have developed my own personal style that is anything but traditional, but more so unique- just like all of us. Perla, which is French for pearl, was my Grandmothers name, is my middle name, and the name I give to my passion I hope to share with you.

We could not have been happier to have our wedding reception at Watermill! It was absolutely incredible!

There are also so many spots to take pictures on the grounds that you don’t have to find another location between or before your ceremony and reception. In the few short weeks since our wedding, we have received so many compliments about Watermill! Our guests were blown away by the extensive cocktail hour selection and we were told “it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had.” The 9 dinner options were not only so amazing and tasty, but truly accommodated all dietary needs. The staff was AMAZING- huge shout out to Rob, Sean, Jessica and Erika! No need for a DOC here- they set up everything that we brought to Watermill without any issues. Even placing a personalized ornament at each place setting — for 280 people. Our bridal attendants and Sean kept drinks in our hand all night long and ensured that everything ran smoothly. We are hoping that someone in our lives decides to get married at Watermill in the future so we can go back and enjoy it as guests! Thank you so much Watermill for a truly unforgettable day! -Meghan & Connor 12/16/23

Words can't describe how thankful I am to have had Jess and Jackie on my wedding day!!! Our day wouldn't have nearly gone as smoothly without them. They truly embraced the day and put all their energy into knowing inside and out our timeline, every detail, our vendors and our bridal party. I (the bride) was able to go about my entire day without having to worry about a single thing because they were taking the lead and handling it all. With a big bridal party and family, they ensured our most important people were where they needed to be and that we got all the photo shots that I had specified on my extensive list. All my expectations for the day that I had talked with them the months prior to our wedding were met and exceeded. There were only a few small bumps to the day and they immediately diffused the situation and quickly resolved it, all while being so kind and professional. These two allowed me to be completely present on my day and blocked out all the noise for me and I can't thank them enough for that. I will forever be grateful for Jess and Jackie and I highly recommend you book them ASAP!!!

Sam and Deb- I have only great things to say about this coordinating and decorating duo. I found them through Zola and am so glad I did. Most of our wedding was DIY and Sam and Deb really helped us get across the finish line on our wedding day. Through zoom meetings leading up to the wedding day and coordination on the day of they were extremely communicative, easy to work with, and a pleasure to be around. They understood our vision and executed it to perfection. Extra shout out to Deb who took our semi-vague wedding decor vision, ran with it, and absolutely nailed it. They did a great job of setting up our timeline, working with our vendors, and wrangling our friends and family for the ceremony. We would hire them again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for everything!!

My name is, yensy marquez Born in the Dominican Republic where I spent my early childhood before moving to the United States at the age of 5. I have always had love for the arts and music. I spent my teenage years drawing cartoons and Japanase manga. I discovered my love for photography during my late teenage years when I got my hands on my first cellphone with a camera. I was always the go to picture person during family events and gatherings. Though they were admittedly average at the time, everyone loved them and always encouraged me to get a real camera. I finally saved up for one and never looked back.

Working with Yensy has been a very pleasant experience. He's able to connect with the flow of the photo shoot. He's polite, professional, and kind. He is also very good at making the client feel comfortable in front of the camera. Highly recommended!

Words can’t express how much we loved working with Ana & Jimmy and the entire Amp DJ Band Hybrid. My husband really wanted a band while I really wanted a DJ, Amp DJ band was the perfect mix. We found Ana & Jimmy immediately and were able to schedule a meeting with them the next day. We knew right away that they were right for us. They were extremely attentive and outgoing from the start. They answered all out of questions and addressed concerns we had. We booked them immediately because we didn’t want to miss out on the opportunity to work with them. We met with them several times through our 6 month planning process. They responded immediately to any questions that popped up along the way and even allowed us to make a last minute change the night before. They well exceeded our musical playlist, taking the songs we requested and tailoring the rest of the music to fit the vibe. There was a perfect mix of live songs and an awesome dj set. The amount of compliments my husband & I received about the band far exceeded anything we expected. All of our guests LOVED them (of course as did we). So many people reached out that night or the next day to say how impressed they were with Ana, Jimmy & the whole band. We also had an acoustic guitar player at our cocktail hour which was amazing. If you’re debating getting a band for your wedding because your heart is set on a DJ, seriously look no further than Amp DJ Band hybrid. You will not be disappointed. I want to have another event just to work with them again!
