Glamour Beauty was a wonderful beauty professional to work with for my wedding day. Katie was extremely responsive, friendly, and accommodating throughout the planning process, always getting back to me right away whenever I had a question or concern. On the big day itself, she worked very efficiently to deliver beautiful makeup for me, my bridesmaids, and all the mothers. She did an amazing job listening to exactly what I envisioned and bringing it to life. My makeup was flawless and stayed put all night long even after the rain happy tears during the ceremony and hours of dancing at the reception. I felt glamorous and confident thanks to Katie’s work. The whole bridal party looked stunning. I would highly recommend Glamour Beauty for any bride looking for a talented, reliable beauty team for her wedding!

  • Beauty professional
  • Serves White Bear Lake, MN

One of my favorite parts of working with brides is putting to rest all of their fears about why they might not be able to have the style they’re envisioning to complete their look. Hair too fine, not long enough, won’t hold a curl… I’ve heard it all. And I love the look on my bride’s face when we work together to make her “impossible” vision come to life. I consider it a high honor to style a bride for a day in which she’ll be memorialized in photos for all time. When you’re in the suite seat, i promise you’ll love what you see in those photos. Enough about me. Let’s talk about your hair!

Awarded Best of Zola
I was looking for a bridal hairstylist in the Minneapolis area on Instagram and came across Kristy’s work. I could tell from her page and our first email correspondence that she had incredible talent and true passion for what she does for brides! I cannot recommend Kristy enough! From the moment we met, she made me feel so at ease knowing she had my bridal hair under control. She was not only incredibly professional, arriving on time and fully prepared, but also super talented. My hair looked absolutely stunning and lasted the entire day and night— through the rain! She took my vision and elevated it, making me feel so confident and beautiful. If you're looking for a stylist who blends personality, professionalism, and top-notch skill, she's the one!

We had our wedding here and it was the best day ever! The coordinator, Victoria, was a dream to work with! She was responsive, helpful, and helped make our day go so smoothly! The place itself required little decor as the bricks and natural elements were so cute! The space layout was great for people to enjoy food, dancing, and convenient to move between the ceremony and reception! And the rooftop photos were such as unique experience and a way to have a private moment as a couple! 10/10

My wife and I got married here in September, and we were so happy with our venue choice! Summit Manor is beautiful, and it was crucial to us that we had rooms at the venue for getting ready rather than having to get ready somewhere else. We had the ceremony outside under the big oak tree with the provided arch, and it was an absolutely beautiful fall day. Our cocktail hour was outside, and for the rest of the reception our guests were able to wander in and out, mingling outside and dancing inside. The mansion vibes were excellent, with all of the dark wood, bookshelves, built in decor, and downstairs speakeasy. We barely had to bring any of our own decorations. David was so easy to work with, and made all of the planning very seamless. He was happy to accommodate our requests for a charcuterie table cocktail hour and breakfast for dinner. We got so many compliments on the food! The venue size was perfect for our guest count of 100. Highly recommend Summit Manor as a wedding venue.

Our team sets the stage and orchestrates the flow so you can simply enjoy the experience, stress-free.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kastina coordinated our June 9 wedding at Silverwood Park. We booked her for Day of Services and I'd book her and the team again with out hesitating. Kastina was easy to talk with, quickly understood my level of interest and brings deep knowledge to the process. She figured out our timeline, consulted with me before we finalized invitations and the website and then took care of all the details. Kastina made our day-of signage and seating charts at a very affordable price too and they looked fantastic. At two weeks before the wedding Kastina began managing all vendor communication. Many of the vendors commented to me that Kastina's timeline was the most useful they'd seen. Both us and our family thought the document was great too. Because of Kastina's work we did not have to manage any details day off including giving out tips, setting up signage or any part of take down. Even if the venue has a day of coordinator, hiring Kastina removed so much of the advance thinking and all the logistic execution and communication for me and my family. Without Kastina's expertise, skills and work I would not have enjoyed the wedding. My advice to any couple marrying is to spend the money on hiring Kastina as your coordinator so you and your guests have a well executed, thoughtful day and you are able to be present.

Like many people, I spent 10 years within corporate America and although I am thankful for my experience, it wasn't feeding my soul. I can be honest and say that I learned so much- my customer service skills, high-level organizational & strategy skills, and my overall work ethic comes directly from my experience within a regular ol' 9-5. However, I've been able to pair what I learned the last 10 years with my passion for photography, and have built this business to provide a stellar experience, the same one I would expect if I were getting married. Below I'll dive into what sets Loui apart, and I hope to hear about your upcoming day!

And let me tell you… having Jon perform at our wedding was one of the highlights of our whole day! From live music at the ceremony, to hours of live music during the reception – Jon kept everyone entertained. Our guests are still talking about how much fun they had and what a great idea it was to have live music. The price of Rock It Man versus a DJ company is very different, but we truly felt that the show, the energy, the vocals, everything we received from Rock It Man was worth every single penny.

Often it can be so altered it does not look like the makeup I did and can be tough to navigate. Her work is so clean, fresh and approachable! Loved the fact that she shared the work with me and we have now been able to build a connection to collaborate and assist more brides together!

A’bulae is wonderful! My husband and I do not live in town so we chose the Essentials Package with A’bulae so it would make the planning easier. It really did help everything go smoothly! First, the A’bulae venue is gorgeous and perfect for any weather condition (which helped me not to feel stressed!). The people working at A’bulae respond to emails promptly and professionally. They also help lay out a day-of schedule and handle a lot of the planning. They reach out and meet with the couple several times throughout the wedding planning process to put everyone at ease. Another plus is their in-house decorations, linens, chairs, and tables they set up for weddings. They have several options you can choose from. Further, while A’bulae does require you to use their in-house catering, the food is amazing. All the apps and entrees we chose were delicious. Above all, my favorite part about A’bulae is how they allow you to personalize your wedding as you see fit. My husband and I made our own monogram and cake topper, we made a slideshow to scroll during the social hour, my husband played piano, and we did an about-the-couple trivia game on the screens. It was really fun and made the event special and unique to us. A’bulae worked really hard to make this happen. Even when there was a slight technology issue, they called someone to figure out the solution remotely, and they had the problem solved very quickly. The team worked hard to make everything seamless. Overall, we had an amazing experience, and I’m really glad we chose A’bulae.

I have always been captured by the beauty of nature and flowers. There is something miraculous and poetic in the way flowers grow out of the dirt and bring such variety and delight. ​​​​​​​​ This is why we incorporate flowers into the most pivotal moments in our lives. Flowers are symbols of all the potential in these moments; they speak to all the possibility of our lives while reminding us that, though beautiful, life is fragile. ​​​​​​​​ ​​​Participating in this language of flowers is what I love to do with Bedecked. Capturing and framing life’s significant moments with all the beauty and mystery of flowers!

I would give 15/10 stars if I could. Becca was the best. She was so kind, easy to work with, wonderful and her work was the most beautiful wedding flowers I have ever seen (yes, it was my wedding so while I might be biased I also have been to a LOT of weddings and I stand by the best wedding flowers I have ever seen). We didn't give her much direction other than "we like fall and its a fall wedding" and she took that and made it the fall wedding of our dreams. We received so many compliments on our flowers all night (even from strangers while we were taking pictures). And now that we have some of our pictures back people are STILL commenting on how good they look in pictures. She was timely, always responded to my many emails and took both my husbands and my ideas and made them one cohesive idea.

I've always had an interest in photography, but my passion really took off when I had my first child. There is something special about capturing children in the moments of pure joy. The special moments in people's lives, sometimes lasting only an instant, are the reason I decided to pursue a career in photography. I live for taking that perfect candid shot. Weddings, children at play, engagements, all of them offer their moments, maybe even one, that you can never get back. My goal is to always capture those moments you can look back and reflect on for a lifetime.

Jake with Two Oaks Photography is the best photographer ever!!! We had the best experience working with Jake as our photographer for our engagement and wedding photos. He made us feel so comfortable the entire time and gave us some guidance when we needed it. The photos turned out better than we could have ever imagined and we are so thankful he captured all the right moments for us. Jake fit right in with our wedding party and went above and beyond on everything he did. Our photos turned out so beautifully and we are so thankful we will have these to look back on for the rest of our lives. We would 10/10 recommend Jake for engagement and or wedding photos, he will not disappoint with his amazing skills!

Born in the French Alps and growing up together with my 4 siblings, in a stone house on the side of a mountain, it wasn't difficult to be moved by the beauty that surrounded me. It wasn't long until I turned to imagery as a means of interaction with the visual world around me and to use it as a means of communication with others. I hope to use the power of the image to make a difference and be a part of something bigger than myself. Camera in hand I hope to give you a chance to share and relive your special moments of life through the images we create together. Lets make something.

Morey is a great photographer that's easy to work with and helps you feel really comfortable with the process. Our photos for our engagement as well as our wedding day turned out beautifully, and a couple of my friends ended up using him for their wedding days as well after seeing how well things went with ours! One of the best things was having the option to add an additional shooter for the wedding day!

I’m the lead videographer and editor of Voyageur Motion Pictures! I love hanging out with awesome people on the most special day of their lives. Capturing those emotions and memories is a huge honor. I also love craft beer and local coffee shops, so hit me up if you want to chill before (or after) your big day. When I’m not editing, I’m working in our veggie garden, traveling, or losing to my husband Rudy in a card game at a brewery. It’s really important to me to vibe well with the couples I work with so that we all have a blast at your wedding. We spend more time with you than just about anyone else! So shoot us a message and let’s talk!

I don’t often leave reviews, but this is truly a remarkable crew to work with. Booking with Voyageur Motion Pictures should be at the top of your “getting married” priority list. We eloped in Glacier National Park summer of 2020. The team at Voyageur Motion Pictures were the ONLY ones present for our elopement outside of my spouse and I. Having such a small group, the energy of everyone involved is incredibly important. They were so fun to be around! They made us relax and enjoy the process and we NEEDED that outside energy. We laughed SO much. We cried. We celebrated. We continue to laugh and cry watching and re-watching our videos with our friends and family. Because of the work of Voyageur Motion Pictures, we had one of the best days of our lives and we get to relive it whenever we watch our videos. After the day has come and passed, having video will mean so much to you. We cherish our videos above any photo taken that day. If you are looking for a destination wedding videographer, elopement videographer, or someone to capture your wedding celebrations, Kea and her team are exceptional. They are incredibly talented in their craft. They know how to make posing for video a natural part of the day. They are fun, vibrant humans with a gift for making you feel special. They love love.

Their communication was great - they kept all of our vendors working together smoothly and ensured there were no issues that disrupted the flow of the event. Even after the wedding, I learned that there were a number of small problems that could have been big issues, but Class Act handled them seamlessly behind the scenes so I didn't have to worry about anything.

On weekdays you can find me either at home or outside with my five year old daughter. In the evenings I am either home with my family cooking dinner together, playing games or reading. Weekends I stay busy between capturing weddings and spending time with friends and family. I shoot 35mm and 120 film as a hobby. A few other things I love: my daughter, cold coffee, plants (I have many), printed 35mm images, chocolate chip cookies, Scandinavia, rollercoasters, music, and traveling.

We couldn’t be happier with selecting NYLONSADDLE PHOTOGRAPHY for our wedding photos! Nicole did an excellent job wrangling our large family & wedding party as well as capturing all the details and the vibe that was so very us. As the bride, I missed a lot of the little details of the day and I’m so thrilled to have those captured as well as the big moments so beautifully documented. In addition to digital photos, we chose to add on a roll of film to our photos and the results were just stellar. It was perfect and we are over the moon with the results! On top of all that, Nicole was just so much fun to get to know. We would love to work with her again in the future!

I recently had my wedding at North Garden Theater and could not have been happier. This was such a gem to find. Ryan and Tina were amazing to work with, so responsive and helpful. You can tell they really care about making sure your event goes perfectly. Tables, chairs and linens came with the rental, which most places do not do. We got to customize the lighting, the dance party lighting (which is extensive with fog machine!), and the entire layout. They have a bar onsite and the cocktails were great! They were able to serve our guests very quickly. We used multiple Spotify playlists for our music and Ryan was on point switching between them at the right times. The facilities were amazing too; large dressing room to get ready, and nice big bathrooms that they continually cleaned throughout the night. They are also big on reducing waste so we were able to use all compostable cups, which we also had our caterer use all compostable plates and silverware. I really do not have enough great things to say about Ryan, Tina and NGT; they made such a magical day for us!!!

Hey there, I'm Bethany. I love meeting people, celebrating people, and making people feel awesome. My photography is all about authenticity and a sense of adventure! I'm a love-obsessed individual whose passion and joy come from telling visual stories. I use a natural approach to photograph every smile, tear, and embrace shared on your special day. I believe that by being unobtrusive I can capture moments that aren’t staged, and are full of life.

Bethany was the photographer for a wedding I planned. She was already hired by the couple when I came on board and I hadn't worked with her so I wasn't sure what to expect. I really appreciated her communication ahead of the day by letting me know what she needed in order to get the shots she needed but was also able to work within the timeline we needed. She was able to hit up three different locations on the day for photos with a ton of ground to cover and she got it all covered! The pictures were definitely amazing and overall she was just to work with.
