We were not originally going to do a videographer for our wedding due to quickly dwindling budgets (seriously, weddings are crazy!!) but 10 days before the wedding in the middle of the night I wake up suddenly obsessed with the idea because really end of the day, I’d rather have the memories over money and it’s a drop in the bucket at this point. Weaver films reached out immediately and were very quick on responses to all my questions and concerns, and even helped find a middle ground on our budgets! They did a thorough review of my timeline and wants with me to make sure everything went smoothly day of, even coordinating with the church on protocol for setup. We used the main team with Jennifer and Kayla and they were so lovely and friendly, made my groom feel comfortable and not use his awkward forced default smile thank goodness, and rolled with the flow of the day perfectly! Our best man got Covid morning of the wedding so his speech was sent as a recorded video from his phone they were able to stitch in too! The highlight film captured all our natural moments and felt so personal, not just a forced rinse and repeat thing, and had great quality video and sound. I’ve already watched mine about 100 times in 2 days and will love it for years to come to remember so many wonderful moments!!

Lucia is the most genuine and talented photographer - if you have any doubts, let them go! You won’t be disappointed by working with her :) Lucia captured our wedding back in July 2022 and the photo quality, the shots, and entire process was JUST what we wanted. From the initial consultation, I knew working with her would be a great fit because she was professional, passionate about her work, collaborative with ideas and also provided direction when I was unsure. The day of, we didn’t have to worry about anything because she worked with our wedding planner to ensure the shots we wanted got done, and taking the photos with her felt so natural! From giggly and candid to artistic and dramatic couple shots, Lucia captured a wide array of poses of us that are absolutely timeless. While there was a technical issue with some of the photos, Lucia handled the situation with grace and sincere apologies. We were lucky to get a discount and a complimentary session with her to make up for the loss of photos - and honestly it couldn’t have worked out more perfectly… the following year she came out to our town and took our maternity shoot 3 All of the photos she’s taken of us have captured the love my husband and I share, and it’s such a wonderful keepsake to have for the rest of our lives. It’s wild to think that our relationship with Lucia started with just shooting our wedding, to our maternity sessions, and soon-to-be baby session. She’s truly captured our love story and each major milestone, and now we’ve gained a friend in the process :) We can’t thank her enough for everything and the time and effort she puts into producing stunning galleries for her clients is well worth it. We can’t recommend her enough!

Lindsay and Nathan are an incredible team. From booking them two years ago, doing our engagement session, and now having gotten sneak peaks back from our wedding that was just 2 days ago, I’m completely blown away by how incredible they have been! Lindsay is a complete pro. Group photos flew by because she was so great at directing and wrangling everyone. I had multiple people comment on how she was EVERYWHERE non-stop at our wedding, doing an amazing job the whole time! I just know she got every picture I wanted and more, and with how gorgeous our sneak peaks turned out I know I’ll absolutely love them! She and Nathan were so on top of everything, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Not only that, she truly went above and beyond helping to safety pin a rip in my dress.

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.

From the moment Alissa and I connected I knew she was going to be a great fit for us. She was very flexible as far as booking our engagement shoot and went above and beyond to get us all the photos we wanted, we even hung out a bit after and had a drink, she's fun!! Come wedding day I was having some issues with another vendor and Alissa was more than willing to step in and help in any way she could. Both my husband and I have very large families so when it came time for family photos she did a great job at making sure we got what we needed and moved on so that we can enjoy our time and not spend hours corralling family to get photos done. We ended up needing her to stay longer to capture our exit and she was more than willing to add more time. After just a few days we got back 50 photos for our sneak peak and were soooo in love with the way they turned out!

When shoot day came, we were both so nervous beforehand, but Mary immediately made us feel so comfortable and at ease. We received our sneak peek a couple days after, and the rest of our gallery within a couple weeks. They are BEAUTIFUL and I am so thankful we did it! Cannot recommend Mary enough 3

No trends, no awkward poses. Just love, laughter and emotion.  While photographs are one of the few things you walk away from your wedding with, they aren’t the sole purpose of your event. You are there to get married, see your people, and celebrate this moment in your life. The photographs come far after that. This day is all about your love for each other. However you naturally stand together, embrace each other, whether you visit people on different sides of the room or hold hands all day, whatever story you tell on your wedding day is going to be preserved as such. Weddings are just love stories wrapped up into one day.

Daria and her partner were so wonderful to work with. They made everything quick and easy and got beautiful photos for us. They were also so quick to send previews after both our rehearsal and our wedding! Highly recommend using them for your big day.

Kit was amazing to work with every step of the way. She sent previews and asked for input, but honestly she could wing it herself and I would have been over the moon with her creations! I asked for a custom alter piece and she did not disappoint! I had several people ask if they were real, and I proudly said they were silk!!!

Hey there! My name is Angelina and I started practicing photography in August 2020, but I've had an interest in it since I was 13 years old (I really wanted to shoot for National Geographic). Now I've expanded into portraits, engagement sessions, and I've done small weddings. I'm a Chicago native but I've also lived in Iowa, Arizona, Nebraska, Texas, & now Mississippi!! What can I say, I enjoyed a somewhat nomadic lifestyle. I also just got married on August 31st, so I know how it feels to be both a service provider and a customer! My style of photography is more candid with a documentary style approach, but I do love a good editorial moment!

From the moment we first spoke with Angelina, we knew we had found the perfect wedding photographer. Her communication was clear, attentive, and incredibly organized, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of Angelina's work was truly inspiring - her professional and creative approach left us amazed at the beautiful, artistic photos she captured. Angelina's attention to detail and patience on our wedding day were invaluable, as she expertly documented all the special moments we'll cherish forever. We cannot recommend Angelina Carrasquillo Captured highly enough.

Mike was so lovely to work with! He is prompt, personable, and helpful in all our communications, and we especially appreciated the ease of the planning process when using his app, to choose songs to play, info he needed to know as MC for our wedding night, and timeline planning. As DJ, he kept everyone on the dance floor all night, and kept the energy of the room up flawlessly. The balance between English and Spanish music was perfectly executed, and it’s clear that he knows and loves his work! As MC, he helped us to keep everything running smoothly, and make sure we were cued on time for our events. He made sure to make certain announcements in Spanish for my husband’s family as requested, which was such a nice touch. Overall, we had an amazing experience with Mike and his team, and couldn’t have asked for a better night!

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Myesha when she helped us in the final weeks leading up to our wedding. She is an amazing wedding planner who truly exceeded all of our expectations. Her attention to detail was impeccable, ensuring every aspect of our special day was perfect. My fiancé was skeptical about the need for a planner when I first mentioned to him that I had hired Myesha. She went above and beyond at each step of the process, and he quickly understood the benefit of having her help and support along the way. As a busy professional, the amount of details and planning involved leading up to the wedding became quite overwhelming for me. Myesha walked us through the final steps by scheduling meetings, creating our floor plan, contacting and coordinating with our vendors, creating our wedding timeline, and allowing me to remain calm leading into our wedding day. She provided wonderful suggestions for vendors that did not disappoint. She even picked up our wedding cake the day of the wedding! I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a top-notch wedding planner. Our day wouldn't have been the same without her expertise and dedication. Thank you for making our wedding an unforgettable experience!

Makeup artistry has been my passion for years, with over 8 years experience, and being a certified professional makeup artist. I have worked with Estée Lauder, Lancôme, and Clinique as a beauty advisor/makeup artist. I look forward to being apart of your special day!

Christen Makeup Artistry was an absolute dream to work with for my wedding day. From the moment I reached out to her, her communication was prompt, pleasant, and reliable. Christen and her partner did an incredible job on my makeup as well as the makeup for my 8 bridesmaids - we all felt like the most beautiful versions of ourselves! Their attention to detail and high-quality work truly made me feel like a million bucks. Christen was able to accommodate my large bridal party with plenty of time to spare, and the compliments we received all night long were a testament to their amazing skills. I would recommend Christen Makeup Artistry to any bride looking for full glam services - they truly saved my day after my original makeup artist cancelled a few months out, and I am so grateful for their professionalism and talent.

Jenni and her team did a phenomenal job capturing our wedding day. We felt so comfortable from the moment we first met with her and that definitely translated to how easy it felt taking direction from her for our wedding day photos. Her team took time to get to know us and figure out what we were comfortable with so it felt natural (we're not the most comfortable in front of the camera but somehow she figured out how to get those sweet in the moment shots without it feeling forced!). The photos turned out stunning. From the formal portraits to our mountain top vows to the sweetest candids she captured of me and my dad and my adorable nieces and nephews there’s seriously so many amazing photos to choose from. I also appreciated how organized she was with our formal portrait list keeping it quick and everyone ready to move through those as soon as possible. Cannot recommend her enough. Thank you so much Jenni! We absolutely could not dream of better photos!

I’m a wedding videographer located in Lubbock, TX and i love my job. When my wife and i got married everything was perfect except afterwords when all I had to remember of the biggest day of my life were still pictures!?! I deeply regretted not hiring a videographer for my wedding and have lost the chance to correct that mistake. Now I get to shoot gorgeous weddings with beautiful couples reflecting and capturing through video all the laughs, tears of joy, heart felt moments, and love between them. So that they can replay those moments in their hearts forever.

Stephen was a dream to work with. He was communicative, patient and took the time to help us create our vision. He even helped come up with our day of timeline, which took a lot of stress off us. He helped everyone feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera. Some guests even commented that he seemed familiar and like part of the family. The videos came out so beautiful. We loved the drone footage of our venue and how he captured our guests celebrating with us. As someone who is shy in front of a camera he provided a lot of helpful direction. This calmed our nerves and made our day run with ease. There are a lot of videographers out there, but not a lot that have the same passion, kindness and talent as Stephen does when capturing your big day.
