Ashley was amazing! Leading up to the wedding, she was super helpful in guiding us through the steps to set up playlists and coordinate the intros/outros of the bridal party. Our wedding was spread out over a large property, and she had zero issue running speakers to each area, providing a festive, cozy atmosphere! We had a couple live performances and she was very accommodating in getting mic stands and cables all ready to go. Then the DANCING began! Lights, speakers, the whole deal - Ashley killed it! We leaned into more 70’s and 80’s music, and Ashley completely understood the assignment. Needless to say, the music mix was brilliant. Since then, we have had at least a dozen of our friends and family tell us that this was the most fun they have ever had at a wedding. I have no doubt that Ashley is 99.99% responsible for that. Hiring Ashley and Fog City Entertainment made a lot of sense 6 months ago, but now, having seen what she can do for a wedding’s atmosphere and dance floor, it’s a no-brainer. Thank you, Ashley!!

After serving the Bay Area for years, I've moved to Lincoln and looking forward to serving our new community. A little about me: Always lived in the country raising cattle and horses.

Now that my husband and I have moved to Lincoln I decided to start my floral business full time.

MSR was by far our dream venue. Not only are the views and property absolutely stunning, but Scena and Susanne were incredible to work with. Wedding planning is hard and stressful, there’s always something you didn’t think of, but, believe me, Scena already has and has already worked it out for you. A God send Our family and us had so much fun staying here as well. We loved being able to stay for 4 days, wind down with our close family after the wedding, and relive the moments together. It truly makes the weekend more special when you don’t have to pack up and get out the very next day. I could go on and on about how wonderful our weekend was. I highly recommend MSR and working with Scena and Susanne. It’s worth the trust me!

Ali is literally the best wedding coordinator a couple could ask to have. From the moment we first spoke with her, she made us feel comfortable and confident that we would have a smooth wedding planning experience and stress free wedding day. Although the stress is inevitable, Ali lifted a ton of weight off of our shoulders the entire last month leading up to our wedding and the wedding day was more beautiful than we could’ve imagined. Our only regret was not choosing full service planning with Ali and only going with month-of! We can't imagine the process going smoothly without Ali and her team and highly recommend her to all of our friends and family. She helped us more than we could have ever hoped – from always being available to give us advice on any decisions we had to make, big or small, to making sure we truly were able to enjoy and not worry about anything but being present on our wedding day. There are so many behind-the-scene logistical challenges that we did not even notice until we thought about it after the wedding and realized were handled by her team. We were able to trust her 100% in any stylistic choices because we know she has a good eye for aesthetics and making our vision come to life. She took the time and effort to learn what we as a couple uniquely like, and made sure that everything was perfect on the wedding day. Ali’s experience and advice are what makes her planning invaluable, even the smallest things you might not think about can make such a big difference on how the day pans out. We genuinely don’t think our wedding would have been possible without her and her expert team!

Anne Roos was a fantastic live music addition to our wedding in early April. She had worked with our coordinator in the past, making it a seamless integration into the wedding program. We loved the deep library of music that she offered; we found songs that fit every moment for our ceremony and the cocktail hour. The music added a classy touch to our ceremony and the guests loved the movie themes and show tunes! We had our wedding just after in the last major snowfall in North Lake and she was able to accommodate that the changing weather without any disruption to the program. We would highly recommend Anne for anyone looking for a Classical harpist in the Tahoe region.

Hey, I'm so glad you're here! My name is Heather and I live in beautiful Foresthill, CA. I love any and all hard seltzers, my Great Dane Fritz, and using my camera to capture all the feels. About my business? Well I'm basically a professional wedding crasher, so you know you will always have fun with me! Oh and I've pretty much cried at every wedding I've ever been to...and yours is no exception. Let's be friends!

You can't go wrong with Heather. She and her team handled our engagement photos and shot our wedding. Both sets of pictures are incredible! She captured amazing moments of our wedding--and they match our memories perfectly. Heather's photos are stunning, but also feel authentic. Beyond her photography and editing abilities, she made us feel very comfortable. My wife and I aren't used to professional photoshoots (we are humble folk), so having someone so kind and down-to-earth made those experiences fun. Heather felt like someone we'd want to have at our wedding anyway! Hire her, have fun, and frame those prints.

Stephanie Marie Morris has spent 15+ years in the event industry: fueled by the social impact, togetherness, and love that each carefully-planned event has imparted onto its guests. With a sociological background + training in event design + planning, & her detail-oriented eye; Stephanie approaches each Wedding as an opportunity to connect to each client's innermost desires, while fostering memorable relationships. Just as each individual has a unique fingerprint, molded by inherent characteristics and shaped by experiences; Stephanie strives to identify that unique vision that each couple has, to then craft an event that resonates :)

Our goal for our wedding was to be able to fully enjoy celebrating with our friends and family without worrying about anything, and Stephanie made that happen. She was on top of everything, always available, and quick to respond, and it genuinely felt like we were on the same wavelength throughout the entire planning process. As a conflict-averse bride, it was a relief having Stephanie in my corner to advocate for us when a vendor presented options we didn’t love or when there were too many familial opinions flying around. She listened closely to our vision and, with her years of experience, offered thoughtful guidance on how to bring our ideas to life. Stephanie oversaw every single tiny detail and effortlessly rolled with our last-minute changes. Even with other events going on, it always felt like we were a priority, and her genuine care for us made all the difference. She made it possible for us, and our parents, to relax and fully enjoy our wedding. We can’t recommend her highly enough.

This was the most amazing & perfect day for us! We are still reliving this day & so happy with how everything turned out. Not only is Winchester CC so beautiful & breathtaking, it’s the perfect venue for us golf lovers as well! My parents went to look at the venue before us without an appointment and the WW team toured them around as if they had one! Amazing customer service! We were sold on the venue right after we toured it & put a deposit down right away! All of the girls are so professional & really want to make your dream wedding come true! I highly recommend attending one of their wedding faires as it’s a great time to speak with your other vendors, see what additional add-ons there might be & even win a raffle prize like us!! The service was amazing from the very beginning to the end. They even allowed us to bring an ice sculpture that was a wedding present to us, they never have dealt with one before but were totally open and willing! Taylor our Coordinator was the best! She rocked it!! She knew we wanted an outdoor wedding, the rain stopped 40 minutes before our ceremony and she was wiping each chair down from the rain. Kayla was great too, making sure we had everything and was comfortable the whole night! I cant recommend WW enough, honestly wedding of our dreams!! We have had many people say it was the best wedding they have ever been to!!

I did a trial and day of makeup and hair with Maddie for my wedding day and it was so perfect! First off she’s cute as a button- and even her being so young she was beyond professional, was very organized and super talented. She’s 100% in the right business! After my bridal trial, I had a couple of things I wanted to tweak/adjust and she took the feedback so well immediately adapted it on my wedding day. HIGHLY recommend doing a trial because I THOUGHT I wanted one thing but realized I didn’t for both my hair and makeup! All of my bridesmaids loved her- her timeline was spot on and her communication skills are top notch! YES 100% BOOK her! Thank you for making me feel so beautiful on my big day Maddie!

We booked Teddy months in advance for our wedding day on April 26, 2025. We wanted a cinematic style to capture our day but we also weren’t familiar with the poses nor how to work with a photographer for a full 11 hours. Teddy made it super easy and great to work with him and ask him what we were hoping to get captured on our wedding day. He was communicative, on time, and open to going with the flow as changes came up with our itinerary due to unexpected rain. We got married at our church, took pictures at a nearby garden, and then we traveled 30 minutes to the reception. We definitely recommend him and hope others can have the great experience we had with him!

I’ve had a camera in my hand since I can remember. On family vacations each of us had a camera and would come back with several rolls of film. It was great to see different perspectives of the same place. My photos became more refined throughout my childhood as I graduated to my stepdad’s Minolta film SLR. In college I dedicated myself to photography professionally with a degree in photojournalism, then found my calling with a wedding studio at 19.

Nicole isn't just an amazing photographer. She's an ally on the day of the wedding. She's a calming presence reminding you to ENJOY one of the biggest moments of your life. And she gets everything you want (and more) naturally, and in the style that represents who you are as a couple. We had to do a COVID wedding, and Nicole handled it so flawlessly that we wouldn't think of working with anyone else once we finally get to throw a larger party. SHE'S INCREDIBLE! You'll love your photographs AND your wedding day.

Chelsea was very easy to work with and never pushed to go over my budget (in fact she helped with ideas to keep my costs lower!) The floral designs were beautiful and exactly as I imagined.

Dana Gualco Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,995
  • Serves Alta, CA

I am Dana Gualco, a natural light and golden hour photographer based in Roseville, CA, serving the Sacramento area and beyond. My passion for photography is rooted in the belief that everyone has a unique story to tell, and I am dedicated to capturing yours with authenticity. Specializing in weddings, engagements, and portraits, I focus on the meaningful details that you will cherish for a lifetime. My goal is to provide high-resolution, timeless images that reflect the raw emotion and beauty of your celebration, turning your fleeting milestones into priceless heirlooms.

From the very first conversation, Dana completely understood the assignment — our vision, our vibe, and what mattered most to us. On the wedding day, she was the definition of calm and collected. While everything else felt like a whirlwind, she was steady, organized, and reassuring in the best way. She captured the day perfectly — not just the big moments, but the subtle, emotional ones we didn’t even realize were happening. Her creativity truly set her apart. Every shot felt intentional, artistic, and uniquely us. She found beautiful light, thoughtful angles, and little in-between moments that turned into some of our favorite photos. I have worked with Dana on every milestone, from engagement photos to gorgeous family portraits. It feels like she is a part of the family and we trust her with all of life’s special moments implicitly. If you’re looking for someone who is calm under pressure, incredibly talented, and genuinely gifted at telling your story through photos, stop searching. She’s it!

You NEED Crush’s at your wedding! Hadyn and Falon were amazing! Knowledgeable, professional, and fun! Seriously, our family & friends are still raving about the cocktails at our wedding. :) We found Crush’s on Instagram and fell in love with the creative and photogenic cocktails they posted. We booked the cocktail bar package for our wedding and they provided us with a tasting of our choice of 4 bottled cocktails to try at home so we could narrow it down to 3. They were all delicious, but we ended up going with the Watermelon Moscow Mule, Open Flame, & Rosehip Dew Drop. They then provided us with a list of liquor we needed to purchase for the selected cocktails, since mobile bars are a “dry-hire” bartending service in CA. On our wedding day, the ladies were on time and helped setup the self-serve beer, wine, non-alcoholic drink buckets, and welcome shots. They provided the buckets, ice, cups, hand-made cocktail mixers, garnishes, etc., and brought their own beautiful wooden bar. They served our 3 cocktails along with straight & mixed shots all night. The cocktails were such a hit, that we ran out of liquor (we had a ton of beer left lol). The ladies offered to run to the liquor store to purchase more and saved the night! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Recommend them 10000%!
