Jenelle Kappe Photography 

5.0

Leonardo, NJ
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $8,575

I believe experiences outweigh possessions. I have a slight obsession with making my dog pose on random objects, just so I can upload the photo to Instagram. I wish to one day make out in a hot summer rainstorm. I collect nearly empty perfume & lotion bottles that I will never finish. Their smells bring back so many good memories. I believe the relationships that inspire you the most should be the ones held closest to your heart.

Jenelle was absolutely amazing as our wedding photographer! From the moment we met her at our engagement shoot to our wedding, she has made the entire experience stress-free and relaxed. Her calm and chill vibe helped keep everything low-pressure, allowing us to truly enjoy each moment of our wedding day. Jenelle is so accommodating and went above and beyond the entire day/night whether it was helping with my gown, the Groom’s boutonniere or capturing photos of us and our family in the rain. Her photography is breathtaking, capturing the emotion and romance of our special day in the most beautiful way. We are so grateful to have worked with Jenelle and cannot recommend her enough!

Chrys Coles Makeup

If you're a bride, you know that things have changed a little bit since the day you got engaged, you started making plans right away and every step it's a roller coaster of emotions that will follow you until your wedding day. Being a bride in the past, I understand the need of being surrounded by professionals that not only provide you with beautiful and organized work but you also treat you as a special person and not just a number.

Awarded Best of Zola
Chrys was more than my hair and make up artist that day. She was my fairy glam mother! She stayed with me all day for touch ups (which my now husband really enjoyed receiving too). She would run over in-between a photo and fix a strand of hair, blotting some sweat, the little things that made my wedding photos truly perfect. There is nothing worse than looking back and wondering why did no one fix that piece! When she wasn't perfecting my look, she was an absolute angel and was helping me walk around with my extra long train and giving me pep talks. When we arrived at the church it all hit me, that the big day was here and I was about to walk down the aisle, she knew exactly what to do and calmed me down while holding a fan to my face for my make up to stay put from tears. She is truly the kindest and most genuine person. I was so lucky to have her with me during that moment! Now... for why you're reading this review, the hair and make up skill. 5 stars!!! Chrys is beyond talented! I loved her work in Instagram and reached out. The truth is, you never know what you're booking in the wedding planning phase. I saw she had an amazing portfolio and was reliable. I can say booking with Chrys was the best wedding planning decision I made! NO NOTES! I'm whole heartedly in love with my look and how it all came out in photos. She took the direction and feedback from the trial and perfected it on my wedding day, I was blown away! I seriously think she was reading my mind! lol. She hit every single detail, she helped mix what I wanted and what would last on a hot June summer day with ease. I felt like a princess! Chrys also did my mothers hair and make up. She's never had it professionally done and is very picky. My mom is OBESSESSED with Chrys and her work. She also said it was the best wedding planning decision I made. After it was all over, we agreed it was so important to have someone who was full of positive and calming energy as you're anxious sitting in the chair all morning. She was exactly what everyone needs on their wedding day. A true full package, a fairy glam mother! XOXOX

I cannot say enough amazing things about Gabriella Loren, my hair and makeup artist and her incredible team! From the moment we started planning she made the process so easy. Once I reached out she provided me with all of the details and hoped on a call right away. When I went for my trial she walked me through everything and listened to any changes or concerns I had and ensured me that on the big day it would be perfect. I have gotten my hair and make up done for other weddings and events and no one has ever went above and beyond like Gabriella and her team did. Something myself and all of my bridal party appreciated the most was that she reached out to every member of my bridal party ahead of time to gather inspiration photos and make sure everyone felt confident and excited about their look. Her team was very professional and fun to be around. On the big day, she and her team were absolute magic. Everyone looked stunning and felt like the best version of themselves.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are looking to have a wedding where your guests do not leave the dance floor the entire night - look no further because JB Pro Live is who you need!! Our DJ, Jan, absolutely exceeded all expectations we had as a DJ for our wedding day. When we met with him before the wedding, we gave him a few of our favorite songs but told him to use his discretion as what was most important to us was having everyone dancing and enjoying themselves. WELL, did he know what he was doing!!! Our dance floor was filled the ENTIRE NIGHT. We had 220 guests at our wedding, and 0 of them were sitting. We have guests who didn't even know we had a photo booth or voicemail booth because they truly did not leave the dance floor one time to look around. Jan reads the room perfectly and truly has a niche for knowing what people like to hear. Our MC Matt was also so great! He helped keep the night on track and made sure we were enjoying ourselves the entire time. He was fun, entertaining, and kept the vibes going! We have had 10 guests ask for our DJs information so they can book him for their own wedding because he really was just that good. After just the first dance set alone, our guests were excited and ready to party because he set the tone perfectly! We also booked a saxophonist through JPBRO as well as a dry ice machine, indoor firework fountains, and the snow effect and they were all perfect! The snow was by far the best addition! It was practically real snow (way better than what we were expecting) and all of our guests went crazy over it! The saxophonist was also a great touch and played practically every song throughout the night which our guests loved! And of course the dry ice machine and indoor firework fountains looked so great in our wedding pictures! Request Jan as your DJ- he is worth every penny and you will not regret it!!! He is absolutely a pro at what he does and you can guarantee that with him, not only will you have the best night of your life, but your guests will as well!

Working with Mandy was an absolute dream! For my makeup trial, I gave her a reference photo and she copied it exactly. She took my very minimal comments from the trial and implemented them perfectly for the big day—I’ve never felt so beautiful! I love Mandy’s style because I’m not someone who wears makeup regularly, and she made sure I still felt like myself. She enhanced all my features in such a natural, effortless way. My makeup put stayed all night and looked fantastic in photos. Mandy was also incredibly professional and organized. She provided a detailed timeline for myself, my bridal party, mom and (now) mother-in-law for the wedding day, which was so helpful for coordinating with my hair artist and keeping everything running smoothly.

Melissa was very professional, kind, supportive, and her communication with both us and the venue was punctual and easy. She was our easiest vendor to work from our side and the venue! I highly recommend working with Melissa. We’d book her again in a second!

It's taken me a couple months to write this review since getting married at Park Loft in May because I just haven't felt I had the words to adequately express how perfect this venue and their entire team was. Our wedding day exceeded even our own expectations and was absolutely flawless. I expected a little hiccup somewhere along the way, but there were none. The entire team we worked with were true professionals and had the whole process down to a tee. Our director, Allie, was beyond organized and accommodating, helping us throughout the entire planning process. Chef Thomas is incredible and so invested in ensuring all the food was delicious. Everyone who attended went out of their way to tell us it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. If you are considering booking with Park Loft, all I can say is DO IT!! You will not regret it and you and all your guests will be blown away by the all around perfection of Park Loft.

Alex & his team were absolutely amazing from the first meeting to the wedding! They worked with us throughout everything, the only DJ team that we met with that we genuinely laughed and felt super confident and comfortable with choosing! The weeks leading up to the wedding with planning and choosing our music, Alex was absolutely AMAZING! Giving us so many suggestions and ideas (he is truly talented!) The day of the wedding his team were on time and I didn’t have to worry about anything. They DID NOT disappoint when it came to the ceremony & reception. Me and my husband danced the entirety of the night and did not let one song go to waste! Everyone was out on the dance floor all night. Overall a 11/10!! The DJ Experience was absolutely amazing and we highly recommend

Words can't express how incredibly grateful we are to have had Garden in the Pines as our florist for our wedding at the Bay Head Yacht Club. From our very first call, I knew I had to work with Alyssa. She is incredibly sweet and knowledgable, she really helped form my tastes into a clear vision that she executed PERFECTLY on the wedding day. Every single detail was nailed - she is so responsive, kind, and most of all TALENTED. She knows what she is doing and I really believe hiring her for our wedding was one of - if not THE best decision we made. My bridesmaids, guests, family, friends - everyone kept commenting on how gorgeous the flowers were. The full ballroom was transformed with her beautiful garland down the head table and centerpieces. There was such continuity across every part of the wedding - gosh I could go on and on!!! All I will say is... I know how stressful as a bride it can be to choose the right vendors. I actually had put a deposit down with a florist that was pushy and then cancelled them because I wanted someone who would listen, make me feel comfortable, and that I could trust. I honestly can’t rate GITP any more highly. Your search for a florist should absolutely stop here, CHOOSE GARDEN IN THE PINES!
