Awarded Best of Zola
Purslane is probably one of the first caterers I worked with when I started my wedding planning business, and 6 years later, our relationship is still going strong! Their food is incredible, their staff is so professional, and they are a dream to work with on the planning side. I also have to give them MAJOR credit for being a zero waste caterer. The work that they do in the name of sustainability is inspiring and I always recommend them to my couples looking to lessen the environmental impact of their weddings. I cannot say enough great things about Purslane!

Awarded Best of Zola
When we first looked into hiring a DJ, we thought it was as simple as picking someone to play music and get the dance floor going. But we were impressed with how much more there was to it, and Collins Entertainment had it all covered from start to finish! There were so many details that we had not considered, like doing a "farewell dance" towards the end of the night. They also offered perspectives that we had not considered, like the benefits of doing wedding party introductions since we had not done programs. Because there is a team of DJs and they take incredible notes, it also means that there is a seamless transition in case of any emergencies. Our original DJ had a family medical emergency, but his colleague was able to step in without missing a beat (pun intended). We highly recommend!

We booked Sound Society for our wedding last month after seeing them perform at a wedding band showcase and WOW did they deliver!!! We ended up booking Sound Society as a three piece string arrangement for our ceremony and as a 10-piece band for our reception with emcee duties and they hit it out of the park. Every part of the process was simple and organized-- Neil from their team helped us choose special songs for the ceremony, tailor our do-not-plays and must-plays for the evening, and plotted out speaking cues throughout the night. A month later and we are still getting compliments about how alive our wedding band was! I spent two solid hours grooving on the dance floor and have no doubt you would do the same if you booked Sound Society.

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Sunnyside, NY

When I first started wedding photography, I made a goal of being more than just the photographer on your big day. I made it my goal to be your friend, someone you can crack inside jokes with, and someone who isn't afraid to get down + have fun at the reception (while still doing her job). I made it my goal to capture more than just photos, but an experience. Whether it’s high in the mountains, on a beach near the ocean, in a forest meadow - you deserve to get married however you want to & I want to capture it for you.

L & L Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding day. Lexi, one of the photographers, was incredibly effective and charismatic in her communication style, making the experience fun and easy. She was patient in answering all our questions and ensuring every moment was captured beautifully. The quality of their work is truly top tier, and their services are very affordable, making them a tremendous value. Lexi rocked every single moment, seamlessly blending into the celebration and creating absolute magic with her moody, romantic photography style. I've worked with many photographers, and Lexi is now my go-to - I cannot recommend L & L Photography highly enough.

Rosehip Social Florist 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $150 per arrangement
  • Serves Sunnyside, NY

All of us here at Rosehip have been influenced by a lifelong love of nature and gardening, anything blooming and leaves of all types. We love what we do, and we love how flowers can bring so much joy and happiness to any space. Even something as simple as a small bud vase. We’ve been growing and working hard. Our lovely and amazingly hard working crew has been studying, building and even becoming arial scissor lift certified, so that we can hang greenery and flower installations from any ceiling and beam! True love of flowers and plants has led us to this life, and we can’t wait to share this passion with you! Come by, say hi!

Rosehip Social did my florals for my November 2024 wedding at the Wythe Hotel and WOW did they deliver! When I'd booked with them the year prior based on photos of their work I'd seen, I had just provided a general vibe and color scheme and trusted them to do their thing. A few weeks before the wedding I visited their shop for a table scape preview and we were able to go through specific flower types and colors and finalize some details. I ultimately ended up giving them some general guidances-- include yellows, oranges, and whites, not too fall-inspired, retro feel, tons of baby's breath-- and then let them do their thing. We ended up including a full floral ceiling installation which made the space feel magical. Everything from our bouquets to boutineers, to table scapes were expertly crafted and could've been from the fanciest celebrity wedding out there. The team was collaborative and helpful around making my budget stretch, moving pieces around the venue at different times of the night, and working with the venue's install team. Lauren and Pola from Rosehip are complete professionals and worth the premium if you want the most gorgeous florals in town. I will 100% be recommending Rosehip to friends and would book them again in a heartbeat!

I am the kind of person who tends to worry more about our guest's experience than I do my own- I want everyone to have a memorable experience and to genuinely enjoy themselves! Our wedding day is not the time to sacrifice our own experience, however, and it is because of Christina that we didn't carry a single ounce of worry with us that day. My husband and I felt that absolutely everything went as planned and we were so impressed by her abilities. She exceeded all our expectations.

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

I began my career a decade ago. As a tour photographer, I began accompanying musicians all over the world. Little did I know at that point the low lights, high energy, and late nights would translate well into my career as a wedding photographer. My start as a music photographer gave me the confidence to navigate even the most challenging and unpredictable situations, and I use the same philosophy now while photographing weddings: keep calm, stay observant, and follow the action.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very first wedding that Jess and I worked together, I knew I had found "the one." Photographing alongside other artists typically comes with some growing pains, however working with Jess was effortless from the beginning. She has a talent, creative eye, and sensitivity that is unparalleled. Her ability to create beautiful images while gracefully navigating complex dynamics and stressful moments on a wedding day makes her a magician in my eyes. I continue to learn something from her every time we're together. Highly recommend.

  • Serves Sunnyside, NY

Meaghan here - I’m the one from which you’ll hear a lot of “Fuck yeah!!!” and “You guys look so hot!” My inspiration comes from our lord and savior, Janis Joplin, and my style is free movement and honesty. Howdy! I'm Brendon, a quiet Mid-Westerner turned East-Coast loud-mouth who happens to have a knack for photography, editing, graphic illustration, and all things creative. My background comes from shooting fashion shows and exclusive events for BFA.com around NYC, which made me appreciate the avant-garde.

We had a terrific experience working with Meaghan and Brendon of “Far Out Feeling.” If you’ve made it this far, you already love their style – their ability to capture both candid and staged photos artfully – and we are happy to report that the photographers have personalities to match. We loved meeting them for drinks months in advance of our wedding, which gave us a nice context for one another when the day finally came (we cannot imagine, now, not knowing our wedding photographers when they arrived to take pictures of us!) We perhaps didn’t consider how crucial this feeling of comfort was, but when you think about, you do spend a tremendous portion of your wedding day with your photographers. Meaghan and Brendon felt like friends, which made even the parts of the wedding that we don’t like (posing!) feel easy, natural, and fun. Meaghan and Brendon were incredibly responsive, from first to last. They always got back to us the day we had a question, and even weeks after our wedding, they were responding to our technical difficulties within minutes. And the photos themselves turned out great! Again, you’ve probably seen evidence of this already. We cannot wait to print them, frame them, and, in all likelihood, post them relentlessly to our Instagram stories. A huge thank you to Meaghan and Brendon, who we recommend whole-heartedly.

Cheryl is just THE best. Our wedding photos turned out better than I could’ve ever imagined. From the planning process, to the wedding day, to editing our photos, she does such great work and is amazing to work with. She was a calming and comforting presence when I was nervous the morning of the wedding. She ensured everything ran smoothly. We had to change the plan last minute due to a rainy day and she was easily able to transition things stress free. She found a new covered outdoor spot for photos and she explored the hotel herself to look for other spots as well. The bridal party and our families couldn’t say enough nice things about Cheryl. She got all of the photos we asked her to and the editing was fantastic. Not to mention she got all of the photos back to us in just 2 weeks which is unheard of. I will recommend her to all of my friends!! We can’t thank her enough!

After fifteen years in theatre and television production, Kate O’Donnell Diaz discovered a love for planning events but wanted to do so with a different approach from what other planners were taking. Kate desired to help couples cultivate weddings that truly reflected them and not just what bridal magazines, their future mother-in-law or high school frenemy said they just HAD to do. The literal and financial waste she witnessed going into weddings because of something “someone” said the couple HAD to have made Kate feel incredibly uncomfortable. Kate saw a need for a more eco-friendly approach to event planning.

I absolutely loved working with Jen and Kate for my wedding in October 2023!! They were both always so communicative, understanding, and organized, and the amount of attention they put into all of our details really showed on the day of our wedding. They handled so many of the logistics as well for us with our vendors, so that we could better focus on the parts we considered more fun; that truly made the planning process so much easier and enjoyable for me and my husband. In the end, the two of them captured our vision perfectly and gave us such reassurance and confidence in their abilities that it removed all of the stress leading up to the big day. So grateful for getting the opportunity to work with both Jen and Kate — our wedding truly would not have been the same without all of their help!

If you are looking for an unforgettable addition to your wedding or private event, look no further than Hot 8 Brass Band. I first heard them perform at a concert in New Orleans. When my then-fiance and I decided we were going to get married in New Orleans, they were my first choice as performers. We're not from New Orleans and neither were the majority of our guests. We knew that if we were going to introduce the idea of a second line, we had to get it right. Hot 8 delivered! Right after our cocktail hour, guests were offered champagne and invited to line-up. As we made our way down historic St. Charles Avenue, Hot 8 played a medley of Teddy Pendergrass, Tems, Frankie Beverly and Maze, Bill Withers and more. Folks went crazy. After we returned to the venue, they went into an hourlong set that kept the dancefloor full. Even I popped up a few times to dance underneath the stars, with our stars! We're a month out and our guests, who were a range of ages and races, still can't stop raving about this band. If you want to ensure your guests have an out-of-this-world experience that they won't soon forget, make sure you book the Hot 8 Brass Band.

Mikkel Paige Photography doesn't simply take photos - she creates them. She'll laugh and joke with you to get those smiles going to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera so you’re free to be yourselves. Her vibrant photos resonate with couples who gravitate towards color and the details. Mikkel is an avid traveler and will go any distance to capture love and work with fun-loving couples, from the Caribbean, to California, Walt Disney World, Norway and beyond.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Mikkel was one of the first things I did when I got engaged. I let her know immediately the dates we had in mind so I was sure that she would be our wedding photographer. The truth is, I gave her very little direction on what I wanted because I trusted her vision and work completely. The day of the wedding, our entire family was so impressed at how well she knew everyone's name, our entire family dynamic, as well as our location (we did a destination wedding and Mikkel made sure to do a full walkthrough of the entire property beforehand). We still joke about how much little involvement we had because we felt so comfortable working with her! I will say this time and time again, hire someone you trust and know will give you peace of mind. Mikkel captured every moment so beautifully and seamlessly I almost forgot we were being photographed. Hands down the best decision we made!

Chaz Cruz specializes in editorial portraiture and weddings. His style and humor brings out unique characteristics in his subjects which turn the photograph into something unique. Always looking at new ways to use found and created light, he enjoys producing new photographs that otherwise would not be encountered.

Awarded Best of Zola
Chaz is more than just a photographer--he helped my husband with his pocket square, he was attentive and grabbed my purse whenever I needed, he was calm when giving updates on delays, he was a visionary, a comfort, and a professional. His energy is warm, uplifting, and enthusiastic. His work is detail orientated and full of spirit. From our first interview with him to the days following the wedding, he was communicative and caring. I'll never forget the moment of seeing Chaz take photographs of the windy trees during our rehearsal dinner (right before it started pouring rain-the most epic adventure!!) and thinking, "I'm so glad Chaz is here." From the unexpected to the beautiful, I knew he would capture the authenticity of every moment and gosh did he deliver. His work speaks for itself in its aliveness but to experience first hand what it's like to be in front of his lens is truly something special. I felt completely at ease and I know our family and friends did too. What we've seen so far has moved us to tears--he captured our love. The Sunday after our wedding, our friend said to us, "you don't need your wedding photographer to be someone you want to be friends with, but it's pretty cool when it happens." It absolutely is.

We cannot ever thank Pedestals enough for how beautiful everything turned out for our wedding. Everyone could not stop complimenting the floral arrangements!! It was perfect from bouquets to each centerpiece and our arch. I came to Sandy without a true vision of florals and had no idea what I was doing. She turned my mismatched thoughts into perfection and a dream come true. I had the centerpieces repurposed into bouquets for guests to take home & everyone absolutely loved that they were able to take some of the gorgeous flowers home with them. It was beautiful and perfect but it would not have been that way without our florals from Pedestals!! 2 weeks later and people are STILL telling us they were the most beautiful florals at a wedding!!! You will not be disappointed!

I’ve been in the beauty industry for 14 years. I’ve excelled in many different angles from cutting, coloring, extensions, styling & more. Bridal/Formal styling has given me a sense of fun & excitement from the moment I’m packing my bridal kit to the moment she’s headed out the doors. I genuinely love every experience of what I do!

Shannette arrived at 8:15a.m. and she worked from the moment she arrived. She was absolutely Amazing and extremely Professional. She did 12 girls hair and everyone looked stunning. She brought what everyone wanted to life. Everyone was beyond pleased with the Amazing job that she did. I hired Shannette in 2019 thinking my wedding would be in 2020 due to Covid we had to postpone and she still stayed by my side. I entrusted her work I didn’t even do a trial. I always wanted to look like a princess for my special day and she went above and beyond to make my dreams come true. I was nervous about doing the style that I always dream of and she assured me it would stay perfect all night and did. Shannette came to the venue with me and touched up everyone’s hair before we walked down the isle. I highly recommend her. I wouldn’t have anyone else style my hair for any other events in the future. I was asked all night who did mine and my girls hair and they wanted me to pass along her info. You won’t be disappointed if you hire her I promise. She stayed as long as I needed her and I was extremely greatful for that. Thank you for your amazing work and for being so extremely sweet to us…

Makeup is a passion and listening and understanding my clients needs are something that I take a lot of pride in. Making them feel beautiful and confident on one of most important days of their lives is truly an honor.

I had my makeup done with Rosy from faith & beauty and I have to say, it was a relaxing experience! I loved how professional, organized and clean she was throughout the entire process as someone who does not wear makeup often. I appreciated all the information and step by step she took with applying certain products and her explanations to why my skin needed it! Rosy knows what she is doing and I would recommend her for any beauty/skincare service.

  • Serves Sunnyside, NY

I wish I had my parents' wedding day captured on film. I would have loved to see how they interacted with each other on the day they celebrated their union. How nervous with excitement they were when they spoke their vows; how they arrived to the church; the look on my grandfather's face as he walked my mother down the aisle. ​ Moments such as these are valuable family histories because as generations move along, memories of past events evaporate. This is why wedding films are important and why I love creating them.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'm a NYC wedding planner working in New York and around the world. I have known and worked with Valerie for exactly 20 years. She's the first videographer I call when my client is interested in an authentic, romantic and artistic film capturing their wedding day. Beyond her art and style, which you can see on her website, Valerie is kind, fair, professional, responsible and reasonable. She works exceedingly well with other vendors (including photographers), and her clients consistently love her work. She is a delight to work with.

Dawn has been producing creative events in New York and California for over 15 years. You’ll most often catch this bi-coastal party maker biking around Greenpoint, BK or in her home state of California loading up on burritos and baseball games.

As a photographer who has documented over 300 weddings, I have worked with my fair share of planners - and there is nobody I get more excited to work with than Dawn and her extraordinary team. Not only does she do a SPECTACULAR job creating fun, interesting, and cool custom designs while also managing all of her clients’ needs, she also is so on top of managing all her fellow vendors respectfully and effectively. She has always been the best in Brooklyn (that’s why she is on almost every preferred vendor list in town!!!) and now that she is bicoastal in LA, too, she gets to expand her absolutely amazing business - but also that means you should book her ASAP before somebody else nabs her.

Erica earned her degree in photography and uses her twenty years of experience in the industry to bring exacting editorial standards and creative excellence to all her work. Her documentary style captures genuine emotions and artfully records events as they unfold organically.

From the moment we booked Clean Plate Pictures, we were impressed with their communication and responsiveness. Erica was always open to our suggestions and worked closely with us to ensure they captured our day perfectly. Her impeccable attention to detail and great eye for the perfect shot were evident in every photo. She was able to herd our many relatives to make the family shoot less stressful, and even made the slightly janky Hyatt Place look elegant in the getting-ready photos. Erica was so friendly and had a strong expertise on the best shots for our venue. We were thrilled that Erica was willing to travel to New York City to shoot our engagement photos as well. We absolutely loved working with Erica (and Elle the second shoot, a dream!) and would highly recommend Clean Plate Pictures to any couple looking for professional, talented, and personable wedding photographers.

Craig James Video

The first time I picked up a video camera I was 10 years old making home movies in my basement with friends. Today, I enjoy capturing everything from weddings to overseas adventures while still having that excitement of storytelling I had when I was a kid. I create timeless wedding videos by capturing the experience of marriage in an authentic way. My videos are inspired by real moments, emotions and people.

Craig is precious! He’s personable yet professional, creative, detail oriented, and the final result is amazing! We initially met at Starbucks to discuss everything and we instantly clicked feeling like we’ve been friends for a long time. He takes notes of the bride and groom preferences/personalities to get a feel for what you’re all about and somehow it translates into his work! During the big day, he is timely, presents well, and teams up with the photographer! He gets in all the little details from various angles and perspectives. Even at times Craig fades into the background which enables capturing the most natural moments. Since our church didn’t allow our vows to be read during the ceremony, he had the great idea to record us at the end of the night with his light set up and disguised microphones! He is willing to work long hours to make sure he gets everything for the film. Hands down he is awesome and would highly recommend!
