Dani B Beauty service I rate 1000000!!! I had an early morning wedding on July 3,2021. The wedding party make up started at 5:am…. YEA 5:00am. Ms. Dani was set up and ready to go for the first person at 4:45 am. When I say she was prompt, ready and in time…. SHE WAS ALL OF THAT!! EVERY lady in the bridal party was so PLEASED with how beautiful she made them feel. As for myself SHE BLEW ME AWAY!!! I didn’t even recognize myself and my husband couldn’t believe his eyes!!!

Awarded Best of Zola
High Voltage DJ was the last major vendor we booked because we truly believe music can make or break a party, and we wanted to get it right. Two weeks after our wedding, I can confidently say that the combo of HVDJ and our venue, Swan Lake Caterers, helped us throw an unforgettable celebration! We chose a DJ, MC, and photo booth. HVDJ also provided music for guest arrival, our ceremony, and cocktail hour. Leading up to the big day, Matt worked with us to complete a planning form that helped organize all the details—from the wedding party lineup and processional to our grand entrance and toasts. After our final meeting, we felt confident everything would go smoothly, and it did! We gave DJ Angelo a few must-play songs and shared the vibe we wanted for each part of the evening, but mostly asked him to read the room. He absolutely delivered! The only time the dance floor was empty was during dinner, and even then the music was so good I was singing along between bites. Throughout the night, the team checked in with us and kept the energy high. My cousins even joked that DJ Angelo might owe them new knees from dancing so much! At the end of the night, Chris and Nolan from the photo booth had us take a picture for the cover of a photo album filled with guest snapshots and well wishes, a lovely surprise. They also gave us a USB with all the photos. We’re so grateful for the energy and professionalism Matt, DJ Angelo, Chris, and Nolan brought to our wedding. They truly helped make the night amazing!

Words can't describe how thankful I am to have had Jess and Jackie on my wedding day!!! Our day wouldn't have nearly gone as smoothly without them. They truly embraced the day and put all their energy into knowing inside and out our timeline, every detail, our vendors and our bridal party. I (the bride) was able to go about my entire day without having to worry about a single thing because they were taking the lead and handling it all. With a big bridal party and family, they ensured our most important people were where they needed to be and that we got all the photo shots that I had specified on my extensive list. All my expectations for the day that I had talked with them the months prior to our wedding were met and exceeded. There were only a few small bumps to the day and they immediately diffused the situation and quickly resolved it, all while being so kind and professional. These two allowed me to be completely present on my day and blocked out all the noise for me and I can't thank them enough for that. I will forever be grateful for Jess and Jackie and I highly recommend you book them ASAP!!!

SDR Weddings & Events was a LIFESAVER for my wedding day!! I had a backyard wedding and I was worried that my guests would still have an amazing time. Hiring them was the best decision I made because not only was the dance floor (our deck, lol) full of all my guests having an amazing time, but the photos are AWESOME and all of my guests raved about how much fun they had. People literally said it was the best wedding they ever went to. I couldn't be happier. They were so amazing in the process of planning too, giving me advice on the best times to do certain formalities at the reception. Being a wedding photographer myself, I see a lot of DJs, but no one compares to these guys in my opinion. I recommend them to all of my clients. I can't wait to have a vow renewal so I have the opportunity to hire them again!!

So I was looking for a photographer to do my 35th birthday photoshoot. My birthday was in August and I was looking for someone from May. I couldn't find anyone that was in the price range I was looking for. I didn't know photoshoot was so expensive. Anyhow I decided I wasn't gonna do it again since I can't find a reasonable priced photographer. One of my co worker at the time was getting married and she was telling me about her phoyoshoot for her engagement and how the guy was reasonable and professional and so on. So I asked her for his contact and so on. I messaged him and he gave me his packages and they were the most reasonable since my search. I decided to take a chance with him after seeing the work he did for my co worker and trust me I didn't regret it. Julian was patient and passionate about his craft. My package was 25 pictures and Julian took over 200 pictures. I had fun. After the shoot he sent all the pictures for me to choose the ones I want edited which I couldn't choose just 25 because they were all so good. So I told him I can't choose that small amount . I asked him if I could choose more and he gave me a discount. He said sure. Then I choose about 30 then he said he won't charge me extra he will just give me as a birthday gift. My pictures were clean and eye dazzling. I love them all. Julian went above and beyond for all the small details I wanted to add to my pictures as well. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an amazing photographer. And I would personally use him again. One of my best photoshoot yet.

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! We hired AMP DJ/BAND HYBRID for our wedding and they were one of the best decisions we made. From the start, they were so easy to communicate with, incredibly professional, and genuinely attentive to our family’s needs. They even added last-minute band members with total ease, no stress, just smooth execution. We wanted a big party vibe, and that is exactly what we got. The vocals were phenomenal, the musicianship was outstanding, and the energy they brought was unreal. The perfect blend of music kept the dance floor packed all night, and the band read the room effortlessly. They were also so open to our personal touches, like my dream of having a big group sing-along, and they embraced it with enthusiasm. At the end of the night, they were even flexible and kind enough to stay for one last song, making the finale feel absolutely magical. One of our favorite parts was how interactive the performers were. The saxophonist, trumpet player, and lead singers came out onto the dance floor, mingled with guests, and encouraged everyone to get up and celebrate. It made the whole night feel electric and personal. A special highlight was how graciously they welcomed a performance from one of our wedding guests, seamlessly bringing them into the band and turning it into a moment we’ll never forget. If you want a team that is exceptionally talented, energetic, flexible, and dedicated to creating an unforgettable celebration, AMP DJ/BAND HYBRID is the ONLY choice. We cannot recommend them enough!

We had the absolute best experience with our photo booth vendor at our 4th of July wedding! From the very beginning, they were incredibly responsive during the planning process and made us feel completely at ease. On the big day, the team was fun, professional, and so easy to work with. The setup looked amazing, the props were a huge hit, and every single photo turned out fantastic. Our guests couldn’t get enough — it added such a fun and memorable touch to the night. Thank you for helping make our wedding so unforgettable! Highly recommend!

I'm a self taught makeup artist, based in Central Long Island, and willing to travel. As a makeup artist with a background in drawing and painting, I turned to makeup to transform my own look and gain confidence after being bullied for my appearance as a child. Now, I’m dedicated to helping others feel amazing and empowered through the power of makeup. I’d be honored to help you look and feel your very best for your special occasion!

Nicole has done makeup for me for NUMEROUS events. Weddings, christenings, parties, just for fun.. every time is better than the last! I cannot say enough about how meticulous she is and she really listens to and appreciates feedback. I have recommended Nicole to so many friends and family members and they all say the same. Finding someone who does an amazing job and makes you feel comfortable is super important and Nicole hits every mark!

I am so happy I booked Genie Artistry for my wedding-day makeup. Jeanine and her assistant MUA could not have been sweeter, and they made me, my bridesmaids, my mom, and grandma look SO beautiful on my big day. Jeanine is very communicative, and you can see she wants to make you feel your absolute best in the makeup - on the day of my makeup trial, she asked questions about what makeup I usually feel best in, and what I was envisioning for my wedding makeup. After she did the first makeup look, she asked if there was anything I wanted to change, and was so open to suggestions. I felt like a goddess on my big day! She even covered up some bruises on my and my sister's arms on the day of so they wouldn't show up in pictures. I would recommend her to any bride-to-be!!
