Awarded Best of Zola
We put our full trust in Alyssa and wow did she deliver! I was sincerely blown away when I walked up to my beach ceremony and even more walking into our reception room. (Her and her husband built out a stunning ceremony from start to finish on our beach in 20 mph winds!) The work they put in to make such a beautiful day.. I've never seen anything like it! They had flowers cascading from chandeliers at our reception.. it was incredible. Just let her take the wheel and you will not be disappointed. I've been to too many weddings to count and the guests were even raving about our flowers! All the Pinterest pictures in the world could not match her creative ideas and class!!! Also, the attentiveness throughout the process was unmatched. Immediately upon meeting her, we stopped looking at other florists because it couldn't get any better. Her love for flowers and people and calming demeanor - what a pleasure to see and to work with!!

Eric Coleman 
Rating: 5.0 (7 reviews)
Forked River, NJ
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,000

Hello couples! Ive spent a lot of my career working with celebrities and professional athletes all over the world but have always had a connection with the wedding photography world and decided to go full time with that a few years ago! Id be honored to shoot your special day and seek out every moment I can for you, your family and your friends!

I can’t say enough about how incredible our experience was with Eric as our wedding photographer. Located at the Jersey Shore, where most photographers focus on sunny beach weddings, I was looking for something different. Our wedding took place in the fall, full of rich earth tones and a fun, edgy vibe that centered not just on romance, but on the presence of our children. It was important to us that the day felt authentic, emotional, and full of movement. And, just to make it more fun, ours was a Halloween wedding. We had a formal ceremony followed by a costume reception, and Eric embraced every bit of it. He didn’t just roll with our unique requests—he elevated them. He found the perfect location: a hidden gem that was edgy, raw, and exactly what I didn’t even know I was hoping for. The backdrop had this cinematic, timeless feel that makes you wonder “where in the world could they be,” which paired beautifully with our nontraditional theme. Photographing four young kids is no easy task, especially on such a big day. But Eric’s speed, patience, and instincts were unbelievable. He captured fleeting moments—tiny glances, quick smiles, the chaos and joy of our family—without ever losing sight of the romance and connection between me and my husband. Every image tells a story. Every photo feels felt. If you’re looking for a photographer who goes beyond the typical and brings a true artistic eye to your day—especially one that includes children, unconventional details, or an untraditional setting—Eric is your guy. We will treasure these photos forever.

Addiction Floral 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Forked River, NJ
  • Florist
  • Starts at $1,500

Hi, I’m Kristine—and I’m a total flower addict. It all started in 2004 when I walked into a local flower shop hoping to land a receptionist job… and somehow never left. Fast forward 20 years, and I’m still head over heels for blooms. With a background in fine art and graphic design, I see flowers as nature’s artwork—and my favorite way to get creative. I love dreaming up floral designs that are just as unique (and fabulous) as the people I make them for.

Booking Kristine for my wedding flowers was the best decision I made for my wedding. She did an absolutely breathtaking job and my wedding guests are still talking about how beautiful the flowers were. They were truly even better than I could have imagined. My bouquet was unbelievable and every arrangement from the flower arch down to the bud vases on the tables were exactly what I had hoped they would be and more. The flowers were very high quality and my bouquet, my bridesmaids' bouquets, and the bud vases that guests took home lasted many days beyond the wedding. Kristine was so enthusiastic about my wedding vision and color palette and was great at communication throughout the planning process. She sent a proposal after our first conversation that brought together my inspiration with her ideas, and was flexible with changes I had leading up to the big day. She was so friendly and so supportive throughout the process and was extremely dedicated on the day of to make sure everything looked perfect. Even when there was an issue with one of the corsages she stopped everything to fix it on the spot so that it was ready for the ceremony. I highly recommend Kristine at Addiction Floral for her beautiful floral style, enthusiasm, and attention to detail. She has the talent, artistry, and vision you can trust to make your wedding vision come to life!

Blossom and Bee were one of the approved vendors on our venue's list. It was an easy process working with Penny and her team. I was able to pin inspo pictures on a Pinterest board as well as share pictures of my dress, my husband's tux, and our wedding invitation suite. As a bride of Indian origin, I wanted bright spring florals that also complimented the industrial/French look of our venue. I was overwhelmed by the number of color combinations I was interested in and the team helped me narrow down to the best color scheme. Something to note is that you will need to provide bud vases and rent floral stands from B&B if that is something you want in your decor. Luckily my venue provided a moon gate that could be used for the ceremony, and the venue staff repurposed the florals from the ceremony to the sweetheart table.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sandy made our wedding ceremony absolutely perfect! From beginning to end she helped us so much. Sandy was always super easy to get a hold of. It never took her more than a day to respond back to any emails we sent her (which to anyone planning a wedding knows is key to have vendors respond as quickly as possible). She made the ceremony so unique by reaching out to some of our friends and family to ask them question about my husband and I and incorporated their answers into the ceremony, which made us and our friends and family feel even more apart of the ceremony then they already were. And everyone knows that one of the post stressful parts of all of this is writing your vows. Which Sandy knows (of course) and she goes above and beyond to help with that she gave us a detailed list of things to incorporate (if you decide to write your own) along with a list of already made vows that you can choose from or use to help create your own version of. Which helped so much to alleviate some of the stress of it all. If I were to do it all again I would choose Sandy every time she was so helpful through the planning of it all and when it came to the actual execution of it, it was perfect and true to her business name, felt like it came right out of a storybook written just for us.

My fiancé and I took our engagement photos at Resorts Casino and we had the best experience! We chose Resorts specifically for the nostalgic charm that the casino and grounds offer. Nancy, the events manager, kindly tended to all of our questions and needs before and during the shoot. She made sure we were escorted by security as she guided us to all the best spots around the casino and the rest of the building to take photos. She walked us through a beautiful ballroom to get to the balcony with an amazing view of the boardwalk and the famous Resorts sign to get incredible pictures. Lastly we were able to shoot in the lovely classic theater that we didn't even know existed and was perfect for the theme of our photos. There are a variety of options to choose from whether you're planing a wedding, engagement party, bridal shower, bachelorette party (which we saw while stayed there) or just taking photos like us. I definitely recommend Resorts Casino for an event during your wedding journey.

Cascade Queen Designs was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, their communication was quick, professional, and reliable. The quality of their work was truly breathtaking - the rental flowers they set up on the staircase of our venue, as well as all the other floral designs, were absolutely gorgeous. Cascade Queen Designs also went above and beyond by sending me photos throughout the process to ensure I loved everything. Their attention to detail and commitment to making our day special was evident in every aspect of their service. I would highly recommend Cascade Queen Designs to any couple looking for a florist that delivers impeccable quality and value.
