We are so grateful to have had Eddie as the lead photographer for our wedding in May 2022. From the moment we had our first meeting until receiving our pictures, we have been nothing short of thrilled to have worked with such a professional and talented photographer. Eddie listened to our plans for the day, captured every moment exquisitely, and delivered the most beautiful photos of the most important day (so far) in our lives.

Austin was incredible right from the start. He is extremely responsive which made for stress free weeks leading up to the event. We had him play our cocktail hour, where we received so many compliments for how well he played, his music selection, etc. We even had guests in he middle of the wedding ask for his contact information so they could potentially use him for other events. I cannot recommend him enough!!

Skylark Music 

5.0

Beacon, NY
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $800

Jesse and Justin have been playing music together since they met performing in a band at Disneyland in 2001. After moving to Beacon, NY around the same time, it made sense to start an official wedding music business to share their love of music with some of the many happy couples getting married in the Hudson Valley. One thing they love about playing music for weddings is the variety that is required of them. Every gig is different and they all happen on one of the happiest days of the clients' lives!

Awarded Best of Zola
Our wedding could not have gone better, and Skylark music was a big part of that. When we started planning we had another DJ in mind who turned out to be unavailable, but after the first time we spoke with Justin it felt that we found an even better fit than our plan A. The ceremony and cocktail hour music was exactly what we were looking for, and it was easy to see how much fun everyone was having on the dance floor. Justin also did a great job as an MC coordinating with us and other parties to keep everything moving smoothly. Overall, it was a 10/10 experience for us and we'd recommend Skylark Music to others in a heartbeat.

Awarded Best of Zola
Justin was lovely to work with from the start. He was booked for another wedding, but he paired us up with Rob, an associate DJ of his. Both Rob and Justin were so so fun to work with. Rob took the time to text or set up whatever zoom calls we felt we needed. For the actual day, Rob was amazing. We had dinner service, reception, and "after party". Robs killed it with his flow between songs, and was incredibly accommodating and flexible if we had any requests in the moment, and was able to dodge or handle any "questionable" song requests that came his way. We knew that he always put my husband and I's wishes first. We also had multiple people comment on how good the DJ was during the reception, and after the fact! He also went above and beyond to pull heroics the day of to get some of our DIY spot lighting set up that wasn't set up the night prior. Rob was incredible to work with, and just as fun to chat with. Will miss working with them, but absolutely will be following their journeys and would use them again in a heartbeat! So thankful for Justin and Rob!

Searching for a videographer for our wedding was proving to be a more difficult task than expected, and hope seemed to be dwindling...until Tyler's name was recommended by a friend. From the very first call, it became clear that he was going to be the perfect fit! Tyler is attentive, knowledgeable, flexible, and most importantly, he is kind. He traveled from New York to Connecticut for our wedding, arriving early and staying late. He made everyone feel comfortable, helped the day run smoothly, and captured all of the love and joy that we felt at our wedding in the most beautiful videos...which were all finished within a month! I cannot recommend Tyler enough and our day would not have been complete without him!

Scott and his team from the Music Boutique were absolutely amazing in everyway possible (total package of amazing people, professionals, and just so talented) . If you like, read no further and just hire them (seriously!!)! If you are like me and need to hear a personal experience for convincing; here goes: being a postponed 2020 covid bride who changed location within 3 months - working with Scott and his team was seamless . From my first email to the Music Boutique, Scott (the owner) responded within 24 hours with everything I had inquired about. We emailed several times since then with what I thought were annoying or silly questions, but he answered everything in full detail and even spoke on the phone with me several times. Going above and beyond, he even went as far as telling me about how the ceremony usually goes and what others have done (as I was pretty confused). He was able to play every random song I requested. He played piano along with a violinist for my ceremony, and had a awesome saxophone player, Geoff for part of my reception. Geoff was able to also play some pretty random songs (hooks to old school rap) along with my DJ (DJ Joey G from Jade Productions who was also great). Overall - I could not recommend Scott and his team more. Hope this helps you pick them!

Jenna Salvagin Photography

Warwick, NY
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000

I believe love is love and happily photograph couples of all backgrounds, orientations, religions and gender expressions. I aim to create authentic and emotive images for my clients and edit true to color so the work will be timeless. My personality is friendly and warm, which helps make my couples feel at ease and open up in front of the camera. I donate $100 from every wedding day package to a non profit organization (either the ACLU, End the Backlog or the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation) because I believe paying it forward in honor of love is an excellent first step into marriage.

Jenna was recommended to us by another photographer and it was such a pleasure to work with her! We greatly appreciated how much she wanted to know us and our personalities in advance of our wedding day. We ended every zoom call or email exchange feeling confident in our decision to work with her. The weather on our wedding day wasn’t very cooperative, but Jenna and team were on the lookout for any break in the rain so that we could go up to the roof and get a few pictures. And she totally nailed them—they are some of our favorite pictures from the day. Jenna and team made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera and also captured some incredible candids. If you’re looking for a fun, positive, and easy-to-work with photographer—Jenna is the right pick!

DJ Lou Paris 

5.0

Kingston, NY
  • DJ
  • Starts at $3,000

DJ Lou Paris is a Wedding DJ out of the Hudson Valley area of NY, providing an extraordinary service to my clients. From gathering all the important information about your wedding in detail to having emergency plans in place to make sure there are no interruptions. I go the extra mile in everything that is done.

My wife and I had Lou DJ our upstate wedding and it was more than we could have dreamed of. From the beginning, he was nothing but professional. He met with us multiple times prior to the event to go over music selection, flow of the ceremony day etc. His website was very easy to use and allowed us to have a large role in our music selection for the day, even for the reception dance portion. Everything was reviewed at least 3 times to ensure there were no hiccups, and also to make sure we wouldn't have to worry about anything on the ceremony day. On the day, Lou came in very early to setup and his equipment was extremely unobtrusive and sounded amazing. From the ceremony to reception (and especially cocktail hour), the sound was fantastic and there was not a single hiccup (even with an outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour!). His flow through the reception was so smooth - and as a former college radio DJ, his music choice to fill in the gaps between the 'must plays' we sent him were impeccable!!! If you have a big heart for music and want it to be the backbone of any great party while having one of the most professional guys out there - Lou is 100% your guy. Thanks again Lou!!!!

We had the most amazing time at Diamond Mills Hotel! The venue is BEAUTIFUL, and the staff is wonderful to work with. My husband and I also loved exploring Saugerties!

They are highly organized and professional. Our wedding day was truly magical! Our guests had a wonderful time! We also really appreciate how the staff working on the day of our wedding ensured that my husband and I ate well (and remembered to eat as we interacted with our guests). The food served was delicious and we loved our wedding cake! Another great thing about booking the wedding at Diamond Mills is that the hotel is attached to the wedding venue - it was very convenient for us and our guests! We received a good discount for our hotel block. The wedding package they offer at Diamond Mills Hotel is truly well-rounded! Beautiful venue with indoor and outdoor spaces, catering, open bar, wedding cake, and supportive and amazing staff to help you plan your wedding and ensure that everything runs smoothly during the day of the wedding all for a reasonable price!

You know that all encompassing feeling when you’re revisiting a vivid memory? You can smell the fresh air, feel the way the sun hits your face just so, hear the voice of the loved one next to you, remember the joke that they delivered and instantly you’re laughing all over again. That magic is what I hope to capture as your photographer. It’s my job to hold those moments in time so that they don’t have to fade. You’ll forever be able to revisit the moment, see the exact way they smiled, revisit that incredible sunset, relive the memory and turn back time.

I can not articulate how happy I am to have found Jess to capture our wedding. She was extremely professional throughout the process and yet somehow now I feel like we are best friends?! She made the planning process seamless and we were happy to have gotten to know her during our engagement shoot. Then at the wedding - she was ON! She kept our families in line AND ON TIME, which is not a small task. She even helped coordinate a surprise with my husband that left me speechless! Our wedding was all about the details and she absolutely captured that. AND THE PHOTOS! Aside from being a wonderful person to spend the day with, Jess is a true artist! The photos are absolutely gorgeous, and my husband and I feel SO LUCKY that we get to cherish them forever.

Jim and Sarah of Black Walnut Farm have created a haven for love. Every inch of their 34 acres is carefully curated for a truly magical experience. As Matt and I approached our forest ceremony enclave, filled with our loved ones, the happy tears were instant thanks to their attention to detail. We chose Black Walnut Farm, after exploring numerous venues, because of their perfectly decorated barn complete with 4 foot disco ball, manicured gardens, equally charming farmhouse to stay the weekend with family, smore station, popcorn machine, audio guestbook, and of course their property manager, Miss Lily, the barn cat. What we didn’t expect to be included in our wedding package was the amount of care, energy, support, and love we felt from Jim, Sarah, and the staff at Black Walnut Farm as they effortlessly managed the most memorable day of our lives. Thank you for making our dreams come true and for being the best wedding venue we could ask for! There is no place like Black Walnut Farm.

When I’m not photographing freaking awesome people, you can find me sitting on the couch in my husband's pajama pants, drinking coffee, snuggling my pets, and editing. Coffee and snuggles are my two primary love languages. My favorite Netflix binges are The Office, Shameless, and Friday Night Lights. Clear eyes, full heart. Speed date: I’m obsessed with Vermont, avocados, dark chocolate, and cats. Pinterest is only my friend for recipes. My favorite fair food is fried dough but I’m allergic to it - what kind of cruel joke is that? I didn’t study photography in college (gasp), but I did study music, and that kind of relates...right?

Erica is AMAZING!!! From our very first consultation call with her, my fiancé and I knew she was the best choice for our engagement shoot and wedding. We laughed and chatted and felt comfortable right off the bat. I have been told that you end up being around your wedding photographer more than almost anyone else on your wedding day - so it's super important you feel comfortable around them, so I was thrilled to feel like I have known her for years just over a Zoom call! Then, she managed to fit us in her schedule last minute, and drive over 3 hours to us in the Greater Boston area to shoot at the Arnold Arboretum! Talk about going above and beyond!!!! She frolicked around the park in the cold with us, LITERALLY climbing in and out of bushes and trees to get these gorgeous shots. You couldn't tell by the photos... but I was super duper nervous going into the shoot. I’m not a huge fan of my picture being taken… and the thought a professional camera made me feel extremely anxious. But Erica was so kind, and calm, and made me laugh and feel comfortable literally immediately!!! My fiancé and I are sooooo awkward too, but she expertly posed us in many different ways that make us look like pros LOL! A day that I had so much anxiety for… ended up being such a blast for both of us, truly. JUST THE SHOOT IN ITSELF will be a wonderful memory we will cherish forever. And then she got us the photos in record time, I couldn't believe it! So fast!!! And to no surprise, they were all incredible. It's so hard to choose a favorite, I have like 10 haha. I am beyond excited to have her shoot our wedding in the future. Five stars for EVERYTHING! Seriously. She is so incredibly talented!!!!

We hired Stacey in early 2020 to be a Month-Of-Coordinator for our October 2020 wedding. From the beginning, Stacey was one of the most responsive, helpful wedding coordinators that I reached out to. She offered great advice, explained the importance of having a Day-Of coordinator even if your venue happens to have one, had vendors to recommend, and was determined to bring our vision to reality, even while COVID-19 started to take over. Well, we all know how 2020 went, so when we ultimately decided to postpone our reception to 2021, Stacey remained in our corner throughout the decision and ultimately helped us to weigh the pros and cons of postponement. Then, throughout 2021, Stacey reached out around once a month to ensure we were on track with plans. She helped us to secure final vendors, review contracts, craft a perfect day-of timeline, ran our rehearsal, and made us feel incredibly confident that our big party would go off without a hitch. Stacey also has a keen eye for event styling, so we were able to trust all of our complicated decor to her and her team for set up the morning of the wedding, and she flawlessly coordinated a last-minute rain plan (which we made, and then with every miracle, didn't actually need!) She coordinated with all of our vendors, worked seamlessly with the in-house team at our venue, was warm, professional, and an invaluable asset to have running the biggest party of our lives. As a former stage manager and a bit of a control freak, having Stacey at our wedding was invaluable. If anything went wrong, I had no idea because of Stacey's magic touch.

It’s our job to make wedding planning easier, and add to the fun of your wedding day. Being adaptable and creative, there to guide you through the day, without being obtrusive.

Stop your search. Pioneer Media is IT. Lynette, Bryndon and team are truly the best. We are so lucky that my brother and his wife discovered Pioneer Media. After seeing their wedding pictures and videos, our research was done. We got to work with Lynette for an engagement shoot a few months before our wedding. She made the experience light and easy with tips to feel more comfortable in front of the camera. She is amazing to work with and thorough with communication. During the wedding ceremony and reception, I don’t remember seeing the cameras AT ALL until it was time to say goodbye. They were stealthy ninjas capturing the most incredible magic. They helped us map out an itinerary ahead of time to capture the photos we felt most important. This allowed us to spend maximum time living in the moment with our friends and family. They captured all of the classic group and posed shots we requested and then incredible candids from all stages of the night. We received our “Sneak Peek” photos and wedding video so impressively quickly after the wedding day. We promptly scrolled/watched them on repeat. Pioneer Media captured the day beautifully and will let us relive it forever. We are forever grateful!!

With their passion and profession, we made it within only one week of preparation. During the whole time, they provided brilliant ideas, tackled the issues we faced, and offered so much extra support without hesitation. Also, they are proactive and super easy to communicate with from the beginning. We loved them since the first time con-call with them! Their friendliness and sincerity made us feel like planning it with our old friends (and we are really friends now!), making the whole thing a great memory.

I have been photographing weddings for 12 years and I love every second of it! I live in the Hudson Valley, but I travel all over the world for weddings. I started photographing weddings in college on the side and once I graduated I knew I wanted to continue to pursue weddings! If you'd like to inquire, please do so through my website!

Jordan was the first person my husband and I hired for our wedding. In fact it was only a few hours after I got engaged that I ran to email Jordan after finding her exceptional work on Instagram! The only thing I knew is we HAD to have Jordan as our photographer. Since connecting in 2021, my husband and I have changed our wedding plans quite a bit. With each shift, Jordan has been accommodating, flexible, supportive, and most importantly, a friend to us. Every person I’ve seen since our wedding has remarked about the exceptional photos from our day. There’s a level of artistic expertise that Jordan possesses that simply sets her apart from so many in the field. The work is breathtaking and speaks for itself!

We never thought we would find a photographer in our price range. Lyn helped us more than we could ever have thought. We were on a very tight budget and asked to removed some of the items in her package to ensure she would be the one to photograph our wedding. She was immensely passionate about our family struggles and understood that we were paying for our wedding with no help from family. Any questions I had even when they weren’t pertaining to photography, Lyn did research and found deals that helped us save money. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to work with than Lyn. She walked through every step of my wedding with us and when my wedding came, Lyn an Melissa were more than I could have ever expected! They were so personable, professional, and made sure we were comfortable every moment we were with them! After our wedding we had continually gotten compliments on how fantastic they were and how they always had a smile and never got upset when our guests asked for photos of themselves with others! When we received our photos, they absolutely blew our minds! I cried so many happy tears because I never thought I could look so beautiful!

I grew up in Amagansett, NY, one town away from Montauk, hanging out at the ocean, riding horses, and photographing my plastic Breyer horse models in different scenarios with my little crappy film camera, always searching for the perfect light. I have since moved on to photographing people with better equipment and I still always search for that perfect light. I now live in the lovely Hudson Valley after a long stint in NYC and Brooklyn where I trained under fashion and editorial photographers before starting my own photography business almost 20 years ago. Full disclosure, I'm a little scared of the ocean.

Cappy was referred to my husband and me by a coworker and it was the best decision we could have made. Not only is she extremely talented, but she is one of the most joyful people we've ever met. She made the entire process a breeze and really fun. We started our working relationship with her when we decided to do an engagement shoot by the beach in Long Island. She made us look and feel like models. She spent so much time with us and was so flexible driving around to different locations and even scouted locations that we did not even think about. Since our engagement shoot was a full year before the wedding, we were able to get to know her and felt extremely comfortable for the wedding day. We also missed her dearly in between events! When it came to the wedding day, it was like she was part of the family. She was so professional, clear, and made family photos quick and easy before the actual wedding. Her assistant, Joe, was just as wonderful! Cappy even found the perfect "first look" location for us. During the actual wedding and reception, she was a ninja as we had no idea she was taking our photos as we enjoyed the evening. We had a hard time saying goodbye too! When we got our photos back we were stunned. She knew how to capture every moment and we felt like we can relive the best day of our lives over and over. Thank you, Cappy!

Chef Tommy's culinary mastery shone through in every dish, infusing local flavors with a touch of creativity that elevated the entire wedding experience. Our guests raved about the exquisite food, and many claimed it was the best wedding meal they'd ever had. The Inn itself exudes charm in every corner. The cozy and elegant interiors provide a sense of comfort and sophistication, creating an inviting atmosphere that made our guests feel right at home.

Two Upper West Siders. Twenty blocks apart. How had we not crossed paths before? Or did we? Well, after finally matching on Hinge we made that happen and the rest is history! We have combined families and now as a family of 7 (three dogs, two cats) we have become an unstoppable force. We both share the same passion for photography, capturing the beauty all around us and making magic happen. Our dog Lucy, embodies love, kindness and poise. We couldn’t imagine naming our business after anyone but her. That’s how Love, Lucy Photography came to be.

Bethany and Raquel are a phenomenal photographer team and we loved working with them for our wedding. They were easy to work with both in preparation for the big day, and on the day itself. They have a special eye that captures moments perfectly, and ties them together to make you feel like you’re watching the day on film (yet it’s all ‘still’ photos). They are artists and masters of their craft. I’m honored and grateful we had the chance to work with both of them. In addition to all of the above, they delivered our photos in a very fast amount of time. We really appreciated that. We opted to purchase an album from them which was an investment we would make over and over again. While they let us help with the design, they truly know best. In my opinion you do not need a videographer if you invest in the right photographer. Bethany and Raquel are THOSE photographers.

We were SO fortunate to have found Kristen's page in our Google search and from our very first phone consultation she immediately put us at ease. She was communicative, responsive, and friendly during our email exchanges. She answered all of our questions in an impressively timely manner. Most importantly when it came time to capture the big day, she did so in THE most beautiful way imaginable. We are SO impressed with our photos. She was able to capture our joy in a way that is palpable. Not only are our pictures absolutely stunning but she delivered both our sneak peek AND final gallery in record time. She is 100% who you want for your big day. She's trustworthy, reliable, an excellent communicator, and most importantly her final product is breathtaking. We will cherish these photos for years to come and we cannot wait to work with her again for our post-elopement celebration in April and for whatever other occasions warrant impeccable photographs.

In 2015, Danny founded Joint Venture as a way to explore how food can bring people together beyond the confines of a restaurant’s four walls. JV is a departure from and reaction to the kitchens of his past. It's about collaborating with friends, reconnecting with nature, and working directly with farmers and producers. JV creates menus that are of the season and expressive of their surroundings. JV is ever-evolving.

We can't recommend Danny and the Joint Venture team enough. It was important to us for this meal to feel more like what you'd expect from a restaurant than a typical wedding, and Danny's imaginative menu design and execution exceeded expectations and was stellar from start to finish. Even amidst unideal weather conditions, Danny exceeded expectations and his food has our guests raving to this day.

The crying is very important. Bear with me on this analogy, but basically I like my wedding films like I like my salads: raw, organic, a little bit of quirk and flare, and consumed alongside great music. If this sound pretty good to you, have a look at my work and get in touch!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you want your wedding day to be captured like an art piece, like an actual movie or magical music video, hire Julia. I cannot recommend Margo Sees Stars enough! I knew I wanted a video of our big day because A) my memory (for the little details) sucks and B) I knew seeing the movement and all the sweet in-between moments in live footage would be so much more meaningful to me than just still photography. But I also am not drawn to super traditional sappy wedding video treatments. Julia took it to another level. I don't remember how I found her but she was the first vendor I booked and it was an A move and worth absolutely every penny. I fell in love with her Wes Anderson style, her eye for minimalism and fun candid moments, her editing and music choices. I felt such joy watching her videos of other peoples weddings, I couldn't imagine how good I would feel watching my own in her beautifully unique film style. Cut to my wedding day, not that this is totally mandatory but she was a complete fly on the wall. Obviously I was a bit preoccupied but I barely remember seeing her there, to the point that later on I was worried she may not have captured enough of the day because WHERE WAS SHE?! But she caught EVERY moment. Moments I was too anxious to pay attention to, or wasn't present for, or was having too much fun to remember. But I'm SO happy to be able to see them in the final video. It was 100x more than I dreamed of. Myself, my husband, our families, we all wept watching it. The music was so perfectly edited to the shots. Honestly I was anxious to pick a song without seeing the footage so I just gave her a few songs and bands I liked and the general vibe I wanted, and she completely NAILED it. She was also hugely accommodating to my editing process (I'm also a creative so I was a bit nit picky), and super communicative along the way when needed. But there was barely any need for it. You just let her do her thing and she makes absolute artistic magic. Not to mention she sends you the raw footage in an adorable package filled with Hershey's kisses and a camera-shaped USB key. I loved my wedding day but the moments are so fleeting, it goes by so quickly and then its gone forever, and it's lovely to have photographs of the day, but I'm telling you, having such a uniquely beautiful video art piece to watch when you want to smile really hits different. GO HIRE MARGO SEES STARS!

Sandi played the flute at my wedding! She played entry music and played while I walked down and back up the aisle. She sounded beautiful - kept a nice and steady flow and the perfect volume while our guests were both being seats and as folks left the church for the reception! I am so glad we chose to have a live, flutist during our big moment. If you’re interested in soothing and lovely flute music, I would easily recommend Sandi!

Her timing and communications were perfect, Including plenty of mockups and vision boards during our preliminary meetings, and continued conversations leading up to the big day.

I’m the self-declared winner of “most likely to hear someone’s life story in unexpected places.” Whether it’s an antique shop owner telling me about her and her late husband’s favorite meal from their Italian vacation 40 years ago, or a fellow TJ Maxx customer recalling how she met her best friend of 17 years in a shared hospital room, I listen. And not a polite listen, but an I really give a shit listen. At the core of my being, I’m story obsessed. It’s why I was an English major in college and why I fell in love with photography. If there is a story to be heard, I will listen. And if there's a story to be told, I'll tell it.

We came across Lindsay’s beautiful photos on Instagram, set up a call and within the first 5 minutes we knew we wanted to have her take our wedding day photos and also be best friends with her! She was willing to travel to us for both our engagement session and wedding day. We met in person when we did our engagement session at Harkness Park in CT and she took amazing photos but was also super fun, friendly and professional. She made us genuinely laugh. It made us more excited to work with her on our wedding day as well! She arrived early, helped us stay on the timeline, took amazing photos and was so fun to be around! Even though it rained a little, she got amazing shots (getting wet in the process) and was also so creative with the shots at the venue. She even got my not-so-happy 3 year old ring bearer to smile for photos! Then the next day we had a bunch sneak peaks in our email inbox and have already received so many compliments! We cannot thank Lindsay enough for all of her hard work and cannot recommend her enough to anyone looking for a photographer!

He was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and was exactly the type of person we wanted to provide the soundtrack to the best day of our lives. My wife and I love music and go to many concerts, and have family and friends of many different backgrounds. We wanted someone who could play music for our wide range of taste but also across generations and genres. We had an absolute blast and spent most the night dancing. My family is of Latino descent and my wife is of Jewish heritage, DJ Dom excellently blended both our cultures and music.

From the very beginning Joe was professional, easy to talk too and so so easy to work with. He made my wedding day so smooth and easy & i never had to question anything the whole entire day, he even worked so well with my photographer who he’d never met before.

The Villa Roma is perfect grounds for a magical marriage and has a treasure trove of options to help make your day one you’ll never forget. Our Clubhouse offers a truly fabulous and elegant venue for an affair to remember. Months and sometimes years are spent making your wedding day special, way too much time to let it rush by. Let us help your friends and your family enjoy this special occasion with you and with each other at The Villa Roma Resort. From pools to spa services, tennis to golf, dance halls to bowling, we have it all. This isn’t just the place for a one night event, it’s the place for your ultimate wedding destination for a weekend worth of wedding fun with everyone you love in one place.

The Villa Roma truly offers a fully customizable bridal package. We were allowed to bring our own decor as well as borrow some too. You have several choices on ceremony locations. The Villas are a bit outdated and we had some plumbing issues, however maintenance was quick to respond. The reception hall is very nice and large, you can fit 100 people no problem. Again, fully customizing settings, decor and table placements. Cheryl is the events coordinator for the entire resort. Since she is in charge of all the events, she definitely has a full plate. If you are looking for a day of coordinator that can walk you through each second of the day, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to hire outside the Villa. If you are a type A planner, it would be my recommendation that you frequently email and coordinator with the team at the Villa. Cheryl was very accommodating and even moved our ceremony location an hour before starting, due to concerns with the weather. Alicia, who is the head bartender, stepped in and helped decorate, helped direct staff during the wedding day and she made the best signature drinks ever! She even popped in at our after party for more congrats! If you’re organized and know what you want, the possibilities are endless here. The views are beautiful, the food fantastic and the wait staff very helpful. I would recommend this venue.

Hey! I'm Nina. I'm a pretty energetic and charismatic person that loves love and enjoys life. Documenting through photo is my favorite thing on this planet. I've been a professional photographer since 2016 but really I've been invested in photography since I was 15 years old. My love for documenting moments came from a desire to capture my own life and that of my friends using disposable cameras to using flip phone cameras and point and shoot digital cameras on beach trips with friends. I have used writing, art, and photo to document my life and it is an incredibly special thing to be able to share that with my clients.

I'd been following Nina Marin on Instagram for a number of years so once I got engaged, I knew exactly who to reach out to to capture my engagement shoot and elopement. As someone who cringes at being in front of the camera, she made me feel at ease and didn't hesitate to pose us or adjust our awkward hands/faces/etc. The pictures we got back felt like us — Nina was able to capture not only the visual aspects of our special day, but also the sheer bliss.

The team really went the extra mile to solve our planning problems (I had many) and made us feel like family. Some of the cabins are pet-friendly which meant the world to us as my father is blind and needs his seeing-eye dog to get around. We knew there would be no hassle having friends bring their dogs too! The rooms are cozy and accessible, for those with mobility issues there are walkways and cabins on flat ground. We dream about sitting around that camp fire with all our friends and family often and are forever grateful to have found Belleayre Lodge!!

We will be there to make sure you’re picture perfect!

I had a vision for my wedding day to accentuate my long hair – soft, glamorous waves similar to an Old Hollywood look. If this is the look you're going for as well, you likely quickly discovered that this is a much more difficult look to achieve than you think. Better yet, most of the professionals who have perfected their technique charge well over 500 (one even quoted me 900) for the wedding day look and that didn't include a trial. I am all for paying vendors what they deserve for their skills and talent, but it felt so unattainable. But beyond that, these stylists booked up far too quick to even get on their books. Some others I was able to get trials with simply didn't have the skill to achieve the soft Hollywood style. I went to Coven for a haircut and met Alexis and ironically struck up a conversation about my wedding. She was inquiring about what kind of look I was going for and we ended up booking a trial for glam waves. When I say I was beyond surprised and overjoyed leaving my trial – and the wedding day?! I could not say enough amazing things about Lex. She even washed and styled my hair before my rehearsal dinner the day prior to the wedding (separate cost) so the amount of product in my hair was exactly what we wanted to work with on the wedding morning. She is the kindest, most professional soul with the talent to match. And as it is a very important factor in the process of wedding planning, the pricing is reasonable and attainable. The amount of compliments I get on my hair to this day anytime someone sees a wedding photo, and I will forever recommend Alexis and her team at Coven!! Don't hesitate to reach out and book for your big day – you won't be disappointed. Note: I did my trial in the salon and Alexis assistant came to us on the wedding day.

Hello! My name is Christine and I love weddings. I have been photographing weddings since 2005 and the more I do it, the more I love it. I also love chocolate, binge-worthy television and Betty White so much, I named my dog after her.

Our wedding weekend was one of the most special times in our lives thus far, and Christine was such a huge part of that! We're New Yorkers who got married in Vermont, and Christine had hired a second shooter from that area. Although she'd coordinated with the other photographer over the phone, they only met in person for the first time the day of the wedding. We were so taken with how well they worked together, and a big part of that is due to how great Christine is with people. Whether she was photographing us as we got ready, or she was rallying all of the guests into a single shot after the ceremony, Christine worked seamlessly. She's funny and charming and knows how to get the shots she needs. She makes the whole operation look effortless, and she'll definitely put you at ease on your big day.

Kristin and Demi were fabulous to work with. From our first trial, the vibes were relaxed and fun. My makeup wasn’t quite what I was looking for on my first trial and Demi really listened to the feedback I gave and blew me away on the second try. They listened to my concerns about sensitive skin and really made me feel comfortable the whole time. I don’t typically wear makeup either, and originally came in with no real idea of how I wanted to look, so I know I wasn’t the easiest customer either. They were fabulous with my family and friends too, catering to several different styles.

After saying 'I do', couples and their loved ones can make their way into the Cider House for a night of dancing and entertainment.

They answered our questions quickly, and were extremely flexible and helpful the week of our wedding. We were able to bring up boxes earlier in the week, set up the day before our wedding, and had private access to the grounds/taproom on our wedding day. As a queer couple, we also loved that Bad Seed partners with Big Gay Hudson Valley year-round, so we already knew they would be a queer-affirming space and our wedding day was no different. Everyone we spoke to / worked with helped make our wedding a magical experience.

We had our wedding at City Winery Hudson Valley on 5/13/23 and could not have dreamt of a better experience—from our first time touring the venue to the day itself. The event manager Lauren is such an amazing asset to City Winery and she helped us create a vision for our wedding and then execute that vision to absolute perfection. Every single guest that attended our wedding described it as “magical” and I truly couldn’t think of a better word. We had our ceremony outside by the waterfront, our cocktail hour in the courtyard, and our reception in the main falls venue. Each space is so beautiful and dreamy and fit our guests perfectly and the transition from one space to the next as the night went on was seamless. The restaurant remained open during our wedding, but we never would’ve known as the staff did an amazing job of keeping our event separate and private. The food and drinks were amazing as well! Overall I really can’t recommend City Winery enough. From the start I knew I could trust the staff to make my wedding dreams come true and they couldn’t have done a better job. Do not hesitate to consider this venue!

I had the pleasure of working with Baylee for my wedding, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The hair she did was absolutely flawless and lasted throughout the entire event (and still looked good when we woke up the next day). Baylee looked at photos of what everyone wanted and asked detail oriented questions to get the look exactly right. She was very calm fun to work with. Prior to the wedding and throughout the booking process she was accessible and easy to work with. Baylee kept us on schedule and made sure everyone was comfortable with their hair. I would highly recommend booking Baylee.

Fig & Pig continues to be a creative, quality-driven catering company devoted to showcasing seasonal ingredients and producing exceptional, food-focused events. Our team of professionally-trained chefs cook with dedication and pride to create thoughtful meals that are both comforting and modern. We work closely with our clients to build curated menus and distinctive settings that reflect the personality and vision of their event. At Fig & Pig, the service is as important as the food. Our front of house team drives the success of each event and they take very seriously, the needs of our guests.

My now-husband and I are big foodies! He also works in the restaurant industry, so having great food at our wedding was our top priority. We did a lot of research, looked into all of our venue's recommended vendors, and did tastings with 4 different caterers! Fig and Pig came out on top, not just for the amazing food, but for the team - you could just tell that they really cared about both back of house and front of house, and have put together a team of people who work so well together, who care about the food, have great attitudes and love the wedding business. We loved chatting with Holly at our tasting, and Tammy was on top of every little detail throughout the process. The selection of food was incredible, and they were even open to making customizations. We kept the food coming all night from the Fried Chicken Station at cocktail hour - a crowd favorite, don't miss it! To a late night snack of pretzels and dips, knowing that no one would leave hungry. Our guests are still raving about the food, including our chef friends, saying it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. Also, try the family style dinner! Everyone loved the social way the food was served and enjoyed, and our guests are loved getting to try a little bit of everything. Do yourself a favor, and go with Fig and Pig, you won't regret it!

Hi, Thanks for reading! Here's my photography short story: 2017, after 13 years of teaching, I said goodbye to the classroom and pursued Olympic weightlifting photography- my company was Everyday Lifters. Shortly after, I launched my wedding business. The Long Version: Weightlifting has taken me to places like Turkmenistan, Germany, & across the country! The weightlifters started getting married, and along the way, I received training to advocate for diverse bodies as a photographer. During this time of transition, I started taking documenting courses through the International Center of Photography and work on documenting local stories.

Choosing a photographer is always hard, it is even more nerve racking when choosing your wedding photographer. That wasn’t the case when we met and connected with Viviana. Viviana from the start was able to put us at ease and was incredibly welcoming. She was very open and helpful as we navigated the planning process. During the day of our wedding we felt like we were in safe and good hands. We didn’t feel like we had to act a certain way or pose in an inauthentic manner. We felt at ease and like our true selves throughout. Viviana’s approach and warmth helped us be our true selves and embrace the day to its fullest. When we received the photos we were thrilled about how they all came out. We loved that each picture captured a special moment on our special day. Whether that was at our first look, ceremony, or when we hit the dance floor. We included pictures to our friends along with our thank you notes. It was an absolute pleasure to partner with Viviana on our wedding day photography. We highly recommend her and her work for your wedding!

It’s Katie if you haven’t guessed already! I’m a photographer in the Hudson Valley. My goal is to give you the newest best friend you didn’t ask for and an incredible memory you get to keep forever. I live for the giggles, full heart felt moments and even shed a tear or two at almost every wedding I attend (just because I am so freaking happy). I can’t help but be so deeply intertwined in the moment that I get lost in the love and magic of it all.

I would HIGHLY recommend Katie. She travelled relatively far for my wedding but was energetic, easy to work with and willing to try anything to make our day special! She was timely, easy to contact and went above and beyond for my husband and I. 10/10 cannot say enough good things!

I value creating a safe haven for every facet of your humanity. Whether you're camera-shy or uncertain about interacting with a stranger, I strive to make the process comfortable. Let's not just capture moments; let's craft an experience where, perhaps, we'll both discover a new friend in the making.

We chose little cacti photography after meeting with a bunch of different photographers for our micro-wedding/elopement ceremony. Anita was such a pleasure to work with and knew exactly what we wanted to make our special day extra special. She lived up to our expectations and then some. We couldn't be happier with the way our pictures turned out. She is prompt, professional, funny, caring and really loves what she does and it shows in her work. We couldn't be happier with how she captured our special day. We highly recommend Little Cacti Photography.

After our first phone call, I knew Planned Perfectly was the florist for Joey and I. She was so kind and helpful throughout the entire process. As a client that didn’t know much about florals, she walked me through everything and sent me many designs for me to look at. Her thoughtful nature and artistic touch allowed her design florals that truly matched our wedding theme and our personalities. Our bouquets were STUNNING— but I can’t say enough about the boutineers (with hops!), the arch, and my floral crown. I decided last minute that I would love a floral crown, and without hesitation, she created the most perfect headpiece. The day of, she was so warm and inviting and you can clearly see that she puts her heart and soul into everything she creates. I can’t say enough about my experience with Ali and Planned Perfectly!

I like to find beauty in the balance between the shadows and the light. They are rarely inseparable. They are complex and totally opposite and yet they can not live without the other. Just like real connection. What is real is beautiful. Only love is real. Your wedding day is important. To you. To your families. To me. And I don’t take it lightly. I understand that you’ve never done this before and you may not even know where to start! Don’t worry- I got you!

Finding a good photographer was high on our priority list for vendors. We got married outside in the Catskill Mountains and as such we wanted a photographer capable of capturing the depth of the forest. After looking through Sam's portfolio we knew she was good, but after working with her and seeing her work firsthand we can say she's the best. Getting your photo taken can be awkward, especially given the high stakes of a wedding. But Sam is able to make you feel immediately comfortable while simultaneously taking the most stunning photos you'll ever see. We also had a connection session with her, which we would highly recommend so that you can know how she works - very fun and relaxed, but professional. Sam helped us outline the entire day of the wedding, and based on her knowledge the day went off without a hitch. We're so grateful she agreed to work with us!
