Ashina was a joy to work with throughout the entire wedding process. We decided somewhat late in the game that we wanted to have our ceremony recorded, and Ashina went above and beyond to accommodate. She was open and upfront on pricing and expectations, and offered us a great deal. She responded to every question and request we had quickly. On the day of, she traveled a far distance over the 4th of July weekend to record our 20 minute ceremony. She was professional, and none of the guests nor wedding party even noticed she was there filming. She turned the final video around in about a week, and it was incredible video quality and sound, and included some wonderful shots of the crowd before the ceremony.

Alexa and her team were an immense help the day of my daughter's wedding. I wanted to enjoy the big day despite the wedding reception being hosted in my back yard and her team delivered great hospitality, organization, leadership, and creative thinking the day of to be sure my family could dance, drink and smile ALOT. For a backyard event, there is a lot of planning, preparation, and checklists that need to be accomplished in advance. Not being an event specialist myself Monarch's direction and tools were immensely helpful to be sure we were on track and considering all the aspects a wedding host must consider. Last minute weather issues were top of mind creating last minute changes so guests were not impacted negatively and my role was simply to be consulted...they handled the rest. Kind, respectful, organized, and positive would be a few words I would describe Alexa and her team. Make sure to reach out and consider Monarch for your next event -- inside or outside.

Dani not only helped us find our elopement spot in Colorado but she was so helpful in structuring our plans. We had our air bnb for a week and she had flowers and photos placed in there to make us feel at home. It was so sweet. She had a changing tent for me to change into after we hiked to our elopement spot. After we were married we ran around the mountains taking photos and we felt so happy and comfortable! The icing on the cake, the photos turned out AMAZING!!!! She is stuck with us forever as our photographer! Hire her!!!

Heather is an outstanding photographer and person. We did an engagement shoot with her and it was an amazing experience from start to finish! She is very thorough and eager to capture her subjects vision. After our initial call, she scheduled another call to discuss the location of the shoot and logistics. Together, we came up with the awesome idea to shoot in a park in Queens during cherry blossom season. She told us the colors she thought would be best for us to wear based on the colors of the flowers, we were SO impressed with her knowledge and amazing attention to detail! Fast forward to the shoot, we got there a little late which was a bit stressful but Heather had an amazing attitude. I must say, this shoot was one of the most romantic moments we've had since we've been engaged. Heather asked us to look each other in the eyes and connect. We did just that! There was nothing super posey or unnatural about the shoot. She gently guided us all the way through and really heard what we were asking of her. Heather holds a special place in our hearts forever!

Jeremy and the New Vintage Strings quartet were incredible. Jeremy facilitated the communication for the quartet, was prompt, thorough, and extremely helpful from start to finish with all aspects. The New Vintage Strings quartet played the ceremony and cocktail hour for our wedding on Saturday, June 15th, 2024, and were a massive hit for all who attended. Their resources were user-friendly, and their repertoire was expansive. The New Vintage Strings quartet were also willing to find the sheet music for a song that was not on their list of songs. It was an absolute pleasure to work with New Vintage Strings and relatively cost-friendly given how expensive live music can be, particularly for weddings. I highly recommend having New Vintage Strings play your wedding or event where music may be appropriate.

Hey, Im Grant. I'm a Madison, WI based wedding photographer who specializes in a documentary approach using both film and digital photography. If you want your wedding gallery to be uniquely yours (vs a Pinterest shotlist), then I'm your guy.

Grant is a skilled, creative, and decisive photographer, but what I feel sets him apart is the care and attention he gives each client. From my conversations with him and the work he shares on social media, it is so evident he puts careful thought into providing the best experience possible for each couple he works with. Bringing him on for your big day is definitely one of the best decisions you can make as you plan your wedding.

I was very impressed with the work Amanda at Dreamscapes Wedding Floral Designs did for me on my wedding day in Saugatuck, MI. She was very responsive from the first time I reached out to her and put a quote together right away after talking with me on the phone about my vision and looking at my inspiration pictures. She was very knowledgable about flowers, design and making sure my vision came out correctly. I decided to rework my wedding colors and event cost just 6 weeks before the wedding, and she worked with me to make sure I was getting enough of what I wanted within my budget. She found gorgeous copper colored roses, peonies and pampas to make my inspo pics come to life IRL! My bouquet was super big and she even used succulents which were gorgeous and tied in with my new color scheme perfectly. She reused a lot of the various garland and aisle pieces to use on the tables to save on costs. Amanda went above and beyond, arriving to MI (from IL with an hour time change) early to give us bouquets and boutonnieres before the photographers arrived, set up early, came back to move my arch and flowers for table set up and stayed to pick up the rented vases- incredible and dedicated service!

Bree Nacsa 13 reviews 2 hours ago NEW We could have not asked for a better photographer for our wedding and are forever grateful for the fantastic job Andrew did for our rehearsal and wedding day. Some highlights: - Strong communication in the months leading up to the wedding, always promptly replying to emails - His gallery speaks for itself but he clearly has a good artistic vision and excellent editing skills with many years of experience - Did some FILM photography as well!!! My favorite photos of the day were captured on film and had such a gorgeous vintage vibe that digital would never be able to capture. - Captured everything we could have possibly wanted, was good at posing us for posed photos but also got so many special candid moments Most importantly, Andrew has such a relaxed, positive, and calming vibe that was so important to us on our big day. I have been in weddings where the photographer is way too intense and barking orders at everyone, rushing people, and stressing out the bride and groom - I am so glad that was not the case with him. I could not recommend his services enough - it is well worth every penny.

Our Wedding hair and makeup Glam Squad is a carefully cultivated crew of the best stylists in Michigan. We all have several years of experience in the wedding industry and are devoted to bringing you confidence on your wedding day with your perfect style of hair and makeup.

Alexis was absolutely amazing!! She was our hair and makeup artist for my wedding this Saturday and when I say she KILLED it!! Aside from her AMAZING hair and makeup skills… We had a few bumps in the road so my mom and I weren’t able to make it to the venue until after my scheduled time for both hair and makeup. As you can imagine, I was definitely panicking about our ceremony starting in less than two hours from the time of my arrival. When I finally made it, I felt SO much better as I realized that Alexis made sure that all of my bridesmaids were on track as far as hair and makeup while I was gone. She completed my hair and makeup beautifully with time to spare for my mom’s hair and makeup. She even managed to squeeze in another makeup service for one of my guests. I will definitely be recommending her to anyone that I know who may be needing a hair or makeup service. She is absolutely amazing at what she does and she is so SO sweet!! I could not thank her enough for everything she helped with the morning of our wedding

We recently had Sarah Nader as our wedding photographer, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. Sarah's photos are nothing short of magical. She captures the genuine moments that tell the story of our day, and her artistic talent truly shines through. Sarah's warm and friendly personality made us feel comfortable throughout the process. She took the time to understand our vision and made the entire experience feel effortless. What sets Sarah apart is her ability to capture emotions. Her photos are a journey back to that special day, and we can feel the love and joy all over again. Sarah's communication was excellent, and she delivered our photos promptly.

We hired Brittany for our wedding and she was phenomenal! Planning with her beforehand gave me so much peace of mind and her ability to make you feel comfortable getting your photo taken and given quick direction was excellent (even with my camera shy husband)! She is so kind and was able to chat with some of our friends and family, who have all been raving about how great her and her sister/helper were. We are already obsessed with our sneak peak photos and I know when we get our gallery it is going to be impossible to decide what pictures are going on the wall. We will absolutely be hiring Brittany for any future photos we want to get and can't wait to work with her again for some family/fur baby photos!

We had a multiday Punjabi-Jewish wedding, and from the beginning I knew that I would need help with the planning. Gina was so helpful in the planning stages with making sure I wasn't forgetting anything and taking stuff of my plate, especially when it was more challenging stuff to deal with. The day-of coordinators Christina and Angie, were the absolute heroes of the day; every wedding has bumps along the way, and ours certainly had a few, but Christina and Angie handled everything quickly, effectively, and so well that no one could even tell that there was a problem in the first place! They really allowed us to enjoy the night, and I completely credit the two of them with the success of our wedding.

We’re so happy we chose Hana to capture our engagement and future wedding photos! She arrived at our engagement shoot location an hour before our time slot just to explore the area and find spots for our shoot. I was so impressed by this and it made us feel like she could take the lead and we could sit back and enjoy the shoot. She was so fun to work with and captured our personalities in a way that looks timeless in the photos - and we’re not that comfortable in front of a camera! She delivered sneak peeks so quickly and they are more beautiful than we could have imagined. We’re so excited to have her capture our big day.
