Seamless I Do's was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, their communication was efficient, clear, and professional. The quality of their work was truly stellar - they were incredibly accommodating and went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of. Bebe was heaven sent. She coordinated all the vendor meals and even ran out to buy additional flowers when my mother expressed concern over the size of her mother of the bride bouquet. I cannot recommend Seamless I Do's highly enough - they made our special day run seamlessly from start to finish.

Hello everyone👋 My name is Karynna! I am 28 years old, born and raised in New Jersey and a momma to a beautiful little Girl🦋. I have a background in event planning which I loved doing for many years! Afterwards, I transitioned to the travel industry and met so many amazing people along the way. When Covid started, I unfortunately lost my job since the travel industry was greatly impacted. At that time, I didn’t know what was next for me.. but I did know my dream was to do floral design.

Karynna is absolutely AMAZING at what she does. I’ll be the first to say, I know nothing about flowers. I told her that on our consultation call and she brought my vision to life with me barely even knowing what I wanted. The whole night of our wedding, everyone was complimenting how beautiful the decor was and it was all because of her! She set everything up, and even met up with me before I walked down the aisle to see if I liked how everything was set up. Beautiful work, I would hire her again and again!!

I am small business florist who loves creating the most perfect florals for a couples most special day.

Whether it is a single rose, or a full wildflower garden, I think there are flowers for every type of person!

We had Dragonfly Flowers host a flower arrangement class during my bachelorette party weekend & it was incredible. Laura hauled tons of gorgeous flowers and all the supplies we needed to perfect our arrangements up to our Airbnb. The girls and I walked away with insanely beautiful arrangements and a plethora of new tips and tricks for making arrangements on our own with grocery store flowers. This activity hands down was everyone’s favorite of the weekend. I highly recommend bringing Dragonfly Flowers in for any and all of your events. We are so excited to continue working with Laura and the Dragonfly Team for our wedding in a few months!

We can’t thank Jenna and Amalia enough for taking care of our pup, Wesley, on our wedding day. We were hesitant to include Wesley in our wedding day at first because he’s still a pup and we weren’t sure who to leave him with, but once we met with Jenna and Amalia, we knew there was no one better for the job! They took care of him like their own - making sure he was happy, fed and cuddled throughout the day. They brought him to the venue for the ceremony and assisted perfectly with having him walk down the aisle and picture taking. They then brought him back home and got him settled in for the night. We were completely at ease knowing he was in the best hands and we were so happy they were able to help us include him in our special day. I can’t recommend The Butterfly Effect Weddings enough for your dog chaperoning needs for your wedding - there’s no one better!!

She helped us visualize the full timeline from start to finish, and her artistic eye and direction made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. The photos are stunning—capturing every moment from getting ready to our bubble exit, and she stayed through the very end with no extra fees. Our album is gorgeous and such a special keepsake from the day. We can’t recommend Jamie enough!

We knew without a doubt that we wanted to use them for our wedding and we felt even better about our decision when we got our engagement photos—WOW!

And when it comes to your wedding film, I would love the opportunity to tell you about my experience on this journey I have embraced - telling the story of love. Your love.

Awarded Best of Zola
Carlo was THE first of our amazing lineup for our wedding. It definitely felt like it was meant to be -- I came across him completely by chance when someone I knew from college posted her wedding teaser film on FB. I do not, by any means, know that person from college all that well ... but, believe me when I tell you, watching that video brought up so many emotions that I KNEW I needed to have his team to capture our special day. Carlo was the reason that we found the perfect photographer (Victory Photographs) & DJ (Ian from Lifetime Entertainment) for our event which completed our fully stacked lineup & we couldn't be more thankful for that!! From the very beginning he was always so incredibly nice, calm, & professional ... as was his team. He truly exceeded our expectations as we were IN LOVE with both our wedding teaser & feature film. It takes us right back to that special, emotional, & absolute BEST day of our lives every time & we will continue to enjoy them for all the years to come!! Thank you for everything, Carlo!! Our dream wedding would NOT have been possible without you (literally)!!

Our floral creations are rich in texture & movement influenced by our connection to nature. We look forward to meeting you!

My husband and I got married in September and worked with Carolyn and Kristina for our wedding florals. From the first intro meeting, both women were extremely kind, attentive and clearly amazing at their job. We had no doubts after our first call that we wanted to work with them. We had a few calls throughout our wedding journey and I was never concerned with how amazing the flowers would turn out! I felt comfortable enough to express what changes I wanted to make (very minimal) and was happy with the revisions the team presented at our next meeting. Carolyn and Kristina are such a pleasure to work with and made our whole wedding floral experience seamless, fun and easy. The florals turned out to be AMAZING and we couldn't be happier with the end result. The colors matched everything so perfectly and I couldn't have dreamed of better pictures because of the flowers. We were absolutely thrilled with their work and would wholeheartedly recommend them to any couple planning their special day!!

We were worried we wouldn’t be able to find a photographer who could capture everything we wanted and truly fit our needs. Then we found Shelby—and from that moment on, every worry disappeared. We cannot recommend Shelby highly enough for all your wedding photography needs. From the very beginning, she stood out—not just for her stunning work we first saw on Instagram, but for the connection she built with us right after our initial call. We knew instantly we had found our photographer. Shelby’s meticulous planning, sharp attention to detail, and vibrant, fun energy made the entire experience an absolute joy from start to finish. She went above and beyond, not only capturing breathtaking images of our wedding day but also taking the time to truly get to know us as a couple. Our engagement shoot was the perfect warm-up. Meeting Shelby beforehand, getting comfortable in front of the camera, and building that trust meant that on our wedding day, it didn’t feel like we were meeting a vendor—it felt like we were welcoming a friend. On the big day itself, Shelby, her assistant, and her videographer were a dream team: professional, punctual, proactive, and seamless in their coordination. They helped everything flow effortlessly, and we both agreed they were hands down our favorite vendors to work with. The photos speak for themselves, but beyond that, Shelby gave us an experience we’ll never forget. My wife and I kept saying how incredibly lucky we were to have her as our photographer. If you’re searching for someone who will deliver jaw-dropping photos while making the process fun, stress-free, and deeply personal, Shelby is the one.

From the moment we started the shoot she was fully focused on us and capturing our best moments. She guided us through as this was the first time my fiancé and I were ever professionally photographed, and there was no awkward period, we instantly felt comfortable in front of her camera. We ended up having a rainy day and said let’s do it anyway, and had a great time. We got our photos back and WOW! They are better than we could have ever imagined! Momo took our vision and went above and beyond to make it a reality. Our photos feel like she captured intimate moments of our lives, in a cinematic and romantic way. And we got SO MANY GOOD ONES!

I seriously can’t put into words how amazing she was and cannot recommend her enough. She was great to have around on our wedding day and I am so happy with our photos. The groomsmen didn't have their act together, even though she provides a detailed schedule, and she was totally chill about it and was like no biggie I'll be back in 30. My fiancé commented on how awesome she was (didn't comment on any other vendors) and one of his groomsmen did too (see first pic). This was before we even saw the pics and they turned out better than I could have imagined. At one point I told her I was done taking pics I wanted to go talked to people and dance, so was a little worried if we got enough shots, but was blown away with the results. I also told her I didn't care that much about getting ready pics but wanted a lot of guest candids and she delivered. She also got way more getting ready pics than I even expected. We didn't want to spend money on a second photographer and she was fine with that and got all the pics we wanted on her own. She truly listened to what we wanted and was incredible at communication and organization. On top of that, she is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met, and truly a calming presence during all of the chaos on wedding day. I feel sooo lucky we found her.

Ashley is such a kind and wonderful person to work with! She made me and my bridal party feel comfortable going up to the big day. Pricing was reasonable and I went with her originally because she did not require more than 2 minimum people/services the day of on site, which put me at ease in case my girls decided later they did not want makeup done. Most services to go on site had a large minimum. Any questions I had in email she responded quickly which is a big help in the wedding planning process. On the big day she made sure my skin was prepped well and the cheeks/lips she was able to build up and make tweaks as we go so it would work perfectly with my look. The photos were amazing with the tones she picked and I got a slight glow as the night went on which is what I wanted, and it stayed all night! To add to it, she gave me the lip product to keep for touch ups at no cost! This is exactly who you want to be with you on your big day. Thank you so much Ashley!

I specialize in photography for couples, intimate events, the arts, and general portraiture. My work is guided by a simple belief: the most powerful images are the ones that feel true. Whether it’s capturing quiet in-between moments or celebrating bold expression, I focus on preserving effortless, authentic memories and timeless beauty that will resonate for years to come. Let’s create something real, together.

Anushka is a natural talent behind the camera. Her eye for light, composition, and story is remarkable and it shows in every frame. She photographed our wedding shoot right after our courthouse ceremony in New York before our big celebration in Italy this September, and she delivered exactly the fairytale vintage editorial look we wanted. We built a Pinterest board together and she turned that inspiration into a clear plan, sending a timed schedule with locations and transitions so nothing felt rushed. From the first message she was organized, responsive, and thoughtful about light and timing. It absolutely poured the day of our shoot, umbrellas and all, and she powered through the elements without missing a beat. She found covered spots in the park and beautiful corners of the city and kept the whole experience lighthearted and fun. We are not big on posing and she made it feel natural with simple cues and small adjustments that never felt forced, even while we were juggling umbrellas. Her ability to capture light is impeccable. She moves with ease from digital to film and from indoor to outdoor settings, and the gallery reflects that range. Colors are true to life, and the black and white images are timeless. Beyond the photos, Anushka is a joy to be around. She is bubbly and friendly, connects with everyone, and puts you at ease the moment the camera comes out. She managed the timeline smoothly, kept us present, and still caught the tiny in-between moments that feel so personal. The final gallery is cohesive, flattering, and exactly our vision, with thoughtful composition and detail. Professional, prepared, and incredibly talented, she is also a light to be around. We are thrilled and so grateful.

Vero Soliman Beauty was the perfect choice for my wedding beauty needs. From our first interaction, Vero was approachable, prompt, and incredibly detailed in her communication, putting me at ease throughout the entire process. Her expertise and artistic talent were evident in the high-quality, efficient work she and her team provided which was extremely valuable given that I had 13 wedding party of very diverse skin tones and needs.

I am Paul, a husband, father, and photographer serving the east coast NY, NJ, tri-state area, and available for travel worldwide. I have a joy and enthusiasm for life, love, and marriage. I love creating beautiful photos and capturing moments and memories but more importantly I love to photograph weddings and engagements because I love marriage and the love it signifies.

Paul was absolutely incredible to work with! We had the pleasure of working with him for both our engagement shoot and wedding, and he made every moment enjoyable. From the start, Paul was kind, communicative, and incredibly creative. My husband and I can sometimes feel awkward in front of the camera, but Paul made us feel completely at ease. He avoided overly posed shots and instead guided us into natural, flattering poses, (but still fun and creative) which turned out stunning. We were a bit nervous about finding a great photo location without needing to drive somewhere else. We thought we might be able to take photos around the grounds; Paul arrived early and scouted out the best spots, ensuring we had the perfect backdrops for our pictures. We had a few edit requests, and Paul was more than accommodating. On the wedding day, he was meticulous in capturing all of our group photo requests and making sure no detail was missed. At the reception, Paul expertly documented all the little moments that will allow us to relive those joyful memories for years to come. We couldn't be happier with our photos!
