Merkels Floral Studio 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $10,000
  • Serves Thompson, OH

Founded in 1940, when we say we have decades of experience, we really mean it. Since then our love for flowers and our team has only grown. Day to day you can catch us designing floral arrangements and delivering them by the truck full. We source locally whenever possible (of course). We especially love weddings and just adore our brides. Aside from that, we are probably spending any other spare time cheering on fellow entrepreneurs and our favorite vendors of this industry. We love to pour back into our city by supporting local events, schools, and the animal shelter. And we could go on of course, but there is a word limit :)

I can't say enough good things about Merkel's Floral! They truly went above and beyond for our wedding, delivering arrangements that were more perfect than we could have hoped for. The flower arch was stunning—fresh, vibrant and overall perfection. Guests couldn’t stop complimenting the floral displays throughout the day. I’m so grateful to have had them as part of our special celebration! Kristin is also so incredibly talented and sweet, she makes communicating easy and responds quickly. Overall- such a wonderful experience. Highly recommend!

You’ve got the ring, found the dream destination or venue, definitely at least thought about the dress - now all you have to do is find THE photographer. The one who’s down to travel, down to party, and most of all, down to help you perfect alllll the details of your dream day. I’ve been photographing intimate weddings in Ohio + beyond for the last 10 years - there’s nothing I don’t know about getting hitched, and nothing I don’t love about it.

Follow the Sun 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Thompson, OH

Established in 2018, Follow the Sun has taken the Cleveland music scene by storm with its distinct sound, diverse taste in music, and a broad range of vocals. Their members consist of Bob Wick on drums, Richie Jackson on lead guitar, Gene Guercia on rhythm, Ryan Bellinger on bass, and Laura Fedor and Sophie Jackson on lead vocals.

We saw Follow the Sun at a friend's wedding in Cleveland and had SO much fun on the dance floor that we hired FTS for our own out-of-state wedding! They easily navigating planning with us- even for an out of town wedding- and even provided valuable insights on the flow of the day. Their acoustic trio played beautifully for our ceremony and the band rocked it for the reception. They are extremely talented singers and musicians and play a variety of songs- EVERY SONG IS SO GOOD- they will keep you and your guests on the dance floor all night long! They have fun and are flexible to last minute changes. They are organized- sound and lighting were ideal- and know how to make your special day extra fun. Our guests (and vendors) are STILL raving about how amazing this band was and we can't wait to see them again! Highly recommend this band for your wedding or other special event! :)

Livia was an absolute DREAM to work with. She was very tentative to our vision, and the entire process from beginning to finish was amazing. The team at Orchard Hills made our vision come to life and everything was so intimate and cozy! Livia was by my side from day one and even played violin for the ceremony. The ceremony was supposed to be outside and it called for rain (and boy did it rain lol!) Livia set up the outside just incase there was a chance it could've been outside. To me that was her going above and beyond. The whole day was a dream come true. If you book your wedding or event here you will not regret it!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are stuck between wanting a classic, old fashioned and a modern, sleek wedding, you can have BOTH at Sun Valley! The completely renovated inside mixed with the charming covered patio and pond outside creates the perfect blend; let's not forget that it sits on 25 acres of land in a very secluded area. This truly is a hidden gem! I never knew SV existed until my fiancé (now husband) and I decided to change our wedding venue TWO months before the big day (Covid-19 played a major role in that). I can honestly say that changing our venue was the best decision we made! Not only did Jennifer accommodate our wedding date but she worked with us up until the very day to make sure everything was just how we had envisioned it to be (we were also very fortunate to be the FIRST wedding under the ownership of Jennifer, Melissa and Scott)! When I walked into SV on my wedding day, I was blown away at how spot on every little detail was. Everything from the entrance table to the layout of the guest tables to the décor was exactly how I wanted it. I love that SV gave me access to their online seating chart so I could do my own layout and make changes up until a couple days before the wedding. Jennifer had very minimal questions for me the week of which is crucial because, as a bride, the week of the wedding is very overwhelming; the last thing you need to worry about is your setup at the venue. SV also provides a spacious bridal suite with a code generated lock where you and your bridal party can store all of your belongings throughout the night. Let's also not forget about the mirrors in the suite that light up at the touch of your finger; I wish I'd spent more time in there but, as everyone always says, the night flies by - and they are right! Another benefit of having your wedding at SV is that the grounds and pond make for beautiful photos! Some of my best photos were captured right next to the pond under a beautiful tree. While having photos taken, it was so refreshing to look over and see our guests fully enjoying cocktail hour that was setup outside with an open bar and delicious appetizers provided by Flour. If you are able to, splurge and rent some colorful linen from Event Source and hire an acoustic musician to play during cocktail hour. It really makes for a magical evening for your friends and family. I cannot tell you how many people commented on how SV was the most beautiful venue they'd ever been to. I couldn't agree more and I can't believe I almost didn't get married there! I really could not have pictured having my wedding anywhere else. If you are stuck between a few venues, do yourself a favor and just go with Sun Valley! Between Jennifer (wedding planner), Melissa (photographer) & Scott (DJ), you are working with three seasoned industry professionals who know how to put on a party! You will not regret your decision!

  • Videographer

  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Thompson, OH

Hello! I'm Danny and I've wanted to be a filmmaker since I was seven years old. Wes Craven's "Scream" was the catalyst for having a camera in my hands. I have a need to tell stories that resonate with people and make them feel something. ​ I also happen to be a HUGE sap. I love filming weddings because I genuinely love seeing people at their absolute happiest. The opportunity to turn that happiness into art that couple's can look back on is so gratifying.

Awarded Best of Zola
If I could reccomend Fullem Films to every single bride and grooms to be, I would. Going through the process of picking vendors we wanted a photographer and videographer that really valued the art and creativity aspect of their work, and also made their work feel like "us". Fullem Films did this, and went above and beyond. Not only did we get a sneak peek video the DAY AFTER our wedding, but the actual highlight feel video takes me right back to our special day: capturing the moments that stick out in my memory. 10/10 work, and if I could give him 10 stars -- I would.

Whitehall Columbia was the perfect venue for our wedding! The communication with their event coordinator, Julia, was always easy, fast, and professional which made the wedding planning and day everything we have always wanted. The venue itself is beautiful, clean, and classy - perfect for a wedding. The chapel has gorgeous chandeliers, massive windows, and great natural light. Their staff was attentive and made sure everything ran smoothly on our big day. I cannot thank Julia enough. Without her, the whole wedding wouldn’t have been exactly what we dreamed of. My husband and I have talked about the day over and over again. Nothing could’ve been better. For the quality of the venue and service, Whitehall Columbia offered insane value. Really could not be any better. We would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a venue that has it all.

Tropical Paradise in Geauga County! I kept telling my husband when we were looking into venues, "I want somewhere close to the water that's peaceful and I want it to feel like paradise, but I want to get married not too far from home". Most of our family is from the area, so we wanted somewhere that we didn't have to travel super far either. I had been looking for DAYS and everything was either way too far, way too expensive, ehhh, or just not at all what I was thinking. My husband hopped on Google, and said "Hey, how about this place called Shangri-La?" I looked at the pictures and I was like "Where is this place?!" He said "5 minutes from us". I could NOT believe it! It was GORGEOUS! The pictures are amazing but don't do it justice. I immediately reached out to Pam and Rod who own Shangri-La with interest. They said we could come and look at it that day if we wanted! My husband and I went and fell in LOVE! So so beautiful, and they have clearly spared no expense on making it so elegant, beautiful, convenient, affordable, and just magical. They were so amazing to work with. I knew when we parked and walked down the walkway even only seeing a small area of the location that was it. That was the place we were meant to be married at. Pam and Rod were so unbelievably amazing to work with. So caring, so organized, so attentive. They even offered us to set off fireworks at the end of our wedding (we got married on the 4th of July). It was truly the best day of our lives. I didn't worry about a thing, everything went smoothly, and they were just so great to work with! I will absolutely be returning to Shangri-La in the future as they can accommodate you for any kind of gathering you have in mind! They even went the extra mile; I was in a very bad car accident about 2 weeks after my husband and I got back from our honeymoon. I was in the hospital for a days and had broken my neck and had surgery on my knee that left me re-teaching myself to walk. Somehow, Pam and Rod had found out that I was in a car accident, and they stopped over at our house with the sweetest care package and card. It truly made me cry. They are such sweet and wonderful people. And we had such an amazing visit. Pam and Rod are just such unbelievably genuine people. You just feel like you're "home" when you're at Shangri-La. I cannot say enough about Shangri-La and Pam and Rod <3

I can’t say enough great things about Sam and the staff at La Vera! My father’s Celebration of Life was, without a doubt, one of the smoothest and easiest events I’ve ever organized, largely thanks to the incredible team at La Vera. Not only are their prices affordable (especially considering how stunning the facility is), but their catering was fantastic—everyone raved about the delicious food. When we unexpectedly had more guests than anticipated, Sam and the team handled it flawlessly. They set up an extra table on the spot and ensured there was more food ready without missing a beat. It was completely seamless! On a day when we were already overwhelmed by emotions and details, La Vera made everything so much easier. Thank you, Sam, and the entire La Vera staff, for your kindness, professionalism, and support. You made a difficult day memorable in the best way.

Valley of the Eagles Event Center is a premier wedding venue in the Northeast Ohio region.

After extensive renovation, the banquet facility debuted in late 2019 to provide full catering services for all events. Our space features massive floor-to-ceiling quarry rock walls, earthy tone cherry wood lined ceilings, oversized windows, and roll-up garage doors. Light and bright, the décor is both modern& rustic. And the spacious outdoor deck!

We love providing people with a platform to make memories, whether those great memories come from a meal, a round of golf, or a special event. This is especially true when it comes to weddings, managed by our dedicated and attentive staff.

Hello! My name is Katie and I am a wedding and family photographer based out of Elyria, OH and covering the greater Cleveland area. I began Oak Lane Studios in 2021 after deciding I wanted to share my lifelong passion for photography with my community.

It was a great pleasure to have worked with Katie. She not only created and baked our wedding cake that guests are still talking about, but she photographed our whole wedding day. I gave Katie my vision and she made it come to life; there wasn't a detail missed! Katie has an exceptional eye for detail and was able to capture each moment throughout the day so we can always look back and remember the best day ever! I would recommend Katie for any occasion, big or small, that you do not want to forget! She is professional, yet relatable, and extremely talented. We will absolutely use Oak Lane Studios in the future!

For nearly three decades, I’ve been the driving force behind some of Cleveland’s most memorable weddings, social events, and corporate celebrations. From intimate gatherings to large-scale affairs like the Cleveland BiCentennial, I’ve orchestrated it all—always with the same goal: creating flawless, unforgettable experiences for my clients. Need to quickly cover a rogue sprinkler head before it ruins the moment? I’ve got you covered. My secret? A deep-rooted knowledge of the local scene, a network of trusted vendors who feel like family, and a passion for finding the perfect venue for any occasion.

I cannot say enough about Janet Abbey of Sterling Events Services, who planned my daughter’s wedding, as it was beyond what we imagined. Working with her was wonderful and she has years of experience planning every type of event at a variety of venues, and has worked with the top vendors. My daughter and her fiancé knew they were in good hands working with her, as she understood their vision and helped create a magnificent, most memorable evening!!

WE NO LONGER OFFER FRESH FLOWERS. We give brides their dream bouquets in silk or sola, & even work from “inspo pics”. We work with Brides to help bring their vision to life and stay on budget. Styles and shapes you want may change during the process. But for an initial quote, we need details like the number of bouquets that are needed and what styles are being considered. We limit our responses to those inquiries that include this info d/t paying per response. Thank you for understanding. We have designed a line called La Petite to help Brides with tight budgets or large wedding parties. Let’s chat about your wedding!

Linda was fast to respond, understood my vision and was so kind to work with. She updated me and sent me pictures throughout the whole process! I love my flowers and can’t wait to use them in my wedding!

Hi, I’m Rekira, a photographer based in Northeast Ohio, with over 14 years of capturing love stories. My passion lies in documenting the most precious moments of my clients’ lives. Every wedding I photograph is a unique journey, and I feel incredibly privileged to be entrusted with such meaningful occasions—from intimate elopements to grand celebrations. Whether you’re planning a dream destination wedding or a beautiful celebration here in Ohio, I’m dedicated to bringing your vision to life, ensuring each moment is beautifully preserved for generations to come. Let’s create something extraordinary together, wherever your love takes us.

Working with Rekira is always an amazing experience! She has done multiple sessions for my husband and I and every single time I am blown away by the pictures she captures, her ability to make us feel comfortable (we are not naturally good at taking photos) and her professionalism. Her turn around time for getting our pictures back to us was so fast and the level of quality is unmatched. Everything we asked for she made happen and never once did I feel rushed or stressed out. Our wedding photos were so much better than we could have ever imagined. I highly recommend working with Rekira, she will exceed all of your expectations!
