Greensboro, NC

Cadillac Service Garage is located in the heart of downtown Greensboro. As we renovated this historic 1921 Cadillac Dealership, we respected its character and kept the exposed brick walls, original black & white marble Showroom floor and lofty 30' ceilings with skylights. We added only "real" materials like concrete, brick, steel, reclaimed wood and glass in bringing the old building back to life as a wedding venue. The result is a truly unique, handcrafted, industrial urban-renewal work of art! Cadillac Service Garage features a private Terrace Courtyard, gorgeous architectural features, industrial texture and a Wandering Garden for photography, multiple indoor & outdoor ceremony locations, two large, well-appointed private suites with early access, two built-in bars, a built-in stage, on-site parking, custom-built farm tables & Chiavari chairs, and custom lighting that includes permanent (indoor & outdoor) festoon string lights.

The Cadillac Service Garage was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first contacted them, their communication was prompt and informative, addressing all of our questions and concerns. The venue itself is large, upscale, and clean, with an ideal location that made it easy for our guests to attend. On the day of our wedding, the staff was incredibly organized and willing to assist us with any requests, helping to ensure we were not stressed. Unfortunately, one of our guests had a minor fall during the event, but the venue staff responded quickly, providing their insurance information and working to help get the guest the medical care they needed. Overall, the Cadillac Service Garage exceeded our expectations and contributed greatly to making our special day a complete success.

Sabrina and Chelsea were a pleasure to work with since our very first call! After our intro call where we described our dream wedding, they gave us a list of recommended venues that was an immense help in our venue search. This was before we signed with them which I thought was very kind for them to do! They were very positive, friendly and patient with our many questions. We ended up doing the wedding management and tabletop design package. We worked closely with Sabrina throughout the planning and she is amazing! Always calm and reassuring that we were on track with planning. The team is super organized and also gave us planning tools like a checklist and budget tracker. Communication was always easy and I asked for monthly calls which helped a lot. The design process was fun and Sabrina was able to create our design plan based on our Pinterest board, as well as recommend vendors that fit our aesthetic. She even helped make our table signage! The day of went perfectly as planned and was absolutely beautiful! We were able to just show up without a worry! Our bridal party was also able to just enjoy the day since Lucky Day was handling everything. Sabrina and her assistant checked in with us throughout the wedding day and helped with my dress, shoes, and even had to go on the beach with us for photos. They set up all our extra decor and neatly packed everything at the end of the night so we didn’t forget anything. We had last minute changes to our schedule the week of and Sabrina was able to manage all our requests. We had our dream wedding come true and would highly recommend Lucky Day!

Chelsea Barber Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style

  • Serves Sophia, NC

I was born and raised in High Point NC. I have always enjoyed being around a camera, at a very young age I would have glamour shots done at my dads house and I think I knew then that I wanted to do something to capture other peoples special moments. When you step in front of my camera on your special day you will never have to worry about how to pose yourself or others, I will take care of everything for you. Once you get your images back you will be able to relive your entire day from start to finish, every small detail will be captured. When I'm not capturing someones special day, you can find me hanging out with my 3 kids and husband!

Awarded Best of Zola
I couldn’t say enough great things about Chelsea. From the first time I talked to her (we bonded about healthcare problems haha) I knew she was who I needed for my day. Fast forward to our engagement photos, she literally hiked basically straight uphill for a mile with us AND we saw a snake and she still kept going and got the PERFECT photos, even though we all forgot water. We also did a few other sessions with her in between which were also amazing. Then the wedding day comes, she was the MVP for our day and helped with anything I needed help with, even if it had nothing to do with photography. We just got the album and it was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, not to mention you get SO many pictures. She’s not only an amazing photographer, but such an all around amazing person that eases your mind as a bride throughout the day. There is no way I could have chosen someone better than her and I’m SO grateful I found her on here!

I am from a small town in North Carolina. I grew up being in front of a camera doing pageants and modeling. I know what it is like to have no direction at a photoshoot and leave disappointed. I strive to never make anyone feel this way when they leave a session and certainly not on your wedding day. I coach you and help pose you so that you do not feel or look awkward. Photos are not only about how you look, but also the memories that go along with them. When I am not taking pictures, you can find me hanging out with my husband and two kids.

Hiring Stephanie as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From our engagement photos to bridal portraits, and especially on our wedding day, Stephanie captured every moment beautifully and exceeded all of our expectations. Her attention to detail and artistic vision brought our love story to life in every image, and we couldn’t be happier with the final results. Beyond her incredible photography skills, what truly sets Stephanie apart is her emotional and physical support throughout the entire process. She was so much more than just a photographer—she felt like a friend, guiding us through the day with care and making sure we felt comfortable in front of the camera. On the wedding day, Stephanie and her second shooter Sheri were an amazing team, keeping us relaxed and calm while capturing all the important moments. Stephanie’s calming presence helped ease our nerves, and Sheri was always there with an extra hand, whether it was fixing my dress or coordinating the wedding party for photos. Their professionalism and warmth were exactly what we needed during such an emotional time, and they both went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. The photos themselves are stunning—every shot feels timeless and captures the joy, love, and candid moments we’ll treasure forever. From the romantic engagement shots to the bridal portraits that made me feel beautiful, and the vibrant energy of our wedding day, Stephanie perfectly documented every stage of our journey. We can’t recommend Stephanie and Sheri enough! They’re not just incredibly talented photographers but also wonderful people who made our experience even more special. If you’re looking for someone who will capture your wedding day with heart and precision, Stephanie is the one.

Growing up, I was obsessed with magical love stories. Fairy tale love stories always left me with a euphoric feeling. I now get to document these stories being a professional photographer, & I LOVE IT! This is not a job for me but a passion that I am grateful to pursue. There are many good photographers out there, but what makes me unique is my passion for what I do. I will do anything to capture the most intimate moments for you to enjoy for a lifetime. If I must get in a tree, lay in a mud puddle, or wade in water to get the perfect shot, I will do it!

Caitlin Gregory Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From our first interaction, Caitlin demonstrated a detailed, responsive, and friendly communication style that put us at ease. We didn't want a huge production and had a small wedding, and Caitlin met us where we were and provided customized services that exceeded our expectations while maximizing our budget. On the day of our wedding, she was calm, cool, and collected. She somehow managed to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera, which is no easy feat for two people who typically don't enjoy posed photos (or being the subject of photos period). The preliminary images Caitlin captured were truly stunning, showcasing the joy and energy of our ceremony and reception in the beautiful documentary-style we were hoping for. I also have to say that I am blown away at how she captured so much so unobtrusively; I had been a little apprehensive thinking back to how "in the middle of everything" photographers had been at other weddings I've attended, but Caitlin wasn't like that at all. Her talent and attention to detail resulted in a wonderful set of photos that we will cherish for years to come -- and we haven't even received the final, finished collection yet! We couldn't be happier with the value and quality of Caitlin Gregory Photography's work and will definitely try to book her for additional sessions as we start to grow our family. Thank you so much, Caitlin!

Your event is unique and special, so why should your entertainment be anything less? Combining the latest and greatest technology with super talented entertainers as Wedding DJs in Greensboro, NC allows us to create custom tailored experiences for each of our clients. Here at Fusion Sound and Lighting, “average” is not in our vocabulary. We are a specialized group of entertainers that take pride in being different than the crowd of “DJ companies” out there.

We have now attended three weddings in which DJ Rick and Fusion Sound & Lighting were the entertainment, and we truly believe that they are the best in the business! The planning app helped us to put in our preferences beforehand, and Rick confirmed all of the details with us beforehand. All communication was seamless and professional. Even on the wedding day, when we needed to clarify things, Rick was able to accommodate and take care of things without hesitation. When the evening’s dancing began, our guests didn’t leave the floor! Rick kept the party going, transitioning from song to song, playing a mix of current hits and classics. The energy in the room was unbeatable, and we had the best time. Thank you FSL for bringing the party to our reception!

My love for wedding planning began through my love of reading. In middle school, I read a book whose main characters were wedding planners and from then on I was in love with the idea of planning weddings for a living. My dream became a reality in 2020 when I finally went off on my own and created Livvy Marie Weddings. With over 10+ years of experience in the field and education from UCF and Rosen Hospitality Management, and now my own business, I have had the honor of helping numerous couples plan and live the wedding of their dreams. I cannot wait to help you with yours!

I’m a mother to an adventurous little boy, a personable little girl, and wife to an amazing man! Loving these three in my life started my venture in stumbling across photography. I’ve always been fascinated by it, and found myself studying it in many forms. It didn’t take long to realize this profession would allow me to be myself: passionate, fun, and bold! I came to a crossroad after my son was born of whether I should return to work or pursue my passion with photography. Let’s just say I took a jump and went into business around 2012. It’s been a daring journey with the most awesome clients ever!

Maria is the best photographer I have had the privilege to work with. From before/during/after our wedding she made every step special and magical. Our family and bridal party LOVED her and the humor/fun personality she brought to group photos. We love Maria and cannot wait to work with her in the future.

As I prepare for my own wedding in April of next year, I was taken aback by the exorbitant costs associated with floral arrangements. Quotes ranging from $6,000 to $7,000, with a minimum commitment of $4,000, were simply unfeasible for me. This led me to explore alternative solutions, and I discovered a passion for creating my own florals. I was delighted to find that I had a knack for it! This experience sparked the idea to launch my faux floral rental business, driven by the belief that beautiful wedding florals shouldn't come with an astronomical price tag. My goal is to make stunning arrangements accessible to all.

While I didn’t use her for a wedding — I most certainly will once I get married! Morgan’s floral arrangements are so well done that I asked to purchase some to decorate my home. Her customer service and attention to detail is out of this world. 10/10 recommend.

Specializing in timeless documentary wedding, elopement, & portraiture photography with a fun, artistic, creative flair.

Elizabeth enjoys building relationships with her couples, many whom she has kept in touch with over the years. Many of her wedding couples are repeat clients - maternity, newborn, family, anniversaries!

Elizabeth was the photographer for my parents’ vow renewal, so when my now-husband and I decided to get married in a tiny, intimate ceremony in my parents’ backyard, I knew I wanted to hire her! From the beginning she was nothing but enthusiastic, kind, and professional. With everything happening with Covid, she was very understanding about my request of her to wear a mask and try her best to stick to the 6ft distancing. She’s a natural with her photos and captured some very sweet moments that I never even knew happened! I’m extremely picky with pictures of myself, too, but I found PLENTY of photos that Elizabeth took that I am THRILLED with! You absolutely will love working with Elizabeth - she is so fun, so sweet, and does incredible work!!
