NIDE Company was founded on the belief that weddings should feel intentional, beautiful, and stress-free. I’m Nicky, founder and lead designer, and I combine strategic planning with creative design to bring each couple’s vision to life. I focus not only on logistics, but on how your day feels guiding, advocating, and creating a seamless experience from start to finish. Every wedding is thoughtfully customized and never treated as a template. We don’t decorate we transform. And it’s an honor to do so for every couple we serve.

Nicky and her team at NIDE created the most perfect wedding for me and my husband. As stressful as wedding planning can be, Nicky made sure each step of the planning process went as smoothly as possible. She carefully listened to all our needs and made sure we were 100% satisfied with her work. When you give her an inch, Nicky really makes it a mile! We’re forever grateful to the hard work NIDE has put in. Almost a year later, we still get compliments on how smoothly and how beautiful our wedding was. Thanks Nicky and NIDE!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were so fortunate to have chosen Zamora Creative to capture our wedding! We had quite the extensive list of photos and videos we wanted taken and knew we needed someone organized and capable of getting those for us. They completely exceeded our expectations in every area. All the guests that interacted with them told us the same thing, that they were amazing and fun and filmed almost the entire night. Once we saw the teasers of our photos, we were so ecstatic we could not even wait to see the entire album...we know without a doubt we made the right decision, and would highly recommend them. If you're looking for easy, patient, trustworthy people to work with, go with Zamora. They got every shot we had on the list, as well as all the random ones we threw at them mid wedding...and, all the photos and videos look astounding. A+

Brownstone Gardens is a true hidden gem in the Bay Area. Not only is the venue stunning, but it’s also affordable. I had a wonderful experience working with Jaime, who went above and beyond to bring my vision to life and make my special day perfect. When we learned a week before the event that a heatwave was coming, with temperatures reaching 104 degrees, Jaime did everything possible to ensure our guests were comfortable and helped us make last-minute changes to the reception location. The catering vendor provided by the venue was also incredible. Overall, I loved everything about the venue and would gladly use it again in the future.

Our guests loved the live music performance for the ceremony and cocktail hour; being able to walk down the aisle to "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" on string duo was incredible!!

Vic flew to France to photograph our chateau destination wedding -- which included multiple events over two days, plus a boudoir shoot in the morning before our ceremony. I am so so happy we decided to work with her. We ended up with SO MANY stunning photos, including glamorous bridal portraits, couples shots, and priceless reaction shots of our friends and family.

I’ve been playing weddings for over twelve years and I love my work! My services cover any or all aspects of wedding & receptions. I have found my life’s artistic calling in becoming flexible to every type of music my clients could desire. I learn to enjoy whatever my clients love and this resonance makes my job sustainable and ever-enjoyable. But, I do tend to request the ability to make choices for the dance-floor that rely on my years of dance-enhancing experience. I meet with my clients to determine what music they would love to hear and what music they do NOT want to hear.

Brandon was an outstanding DJ who supported our wedding this last February. I loved that he had outfit options, as our wedding was themed "Love Through the Ages" and we requested all of our guests to wear attire from their favorite decade. It was fabulous that we were able to pick his super awesome outfit to stand out (and in theme) for the wedding. He curated the most amazing playlist, based on our theme, so we got to drift through music from the 20's, 30's, 40's, and all the way through to current day. He is such a charismatic and engaging host and was able to convince folks (who I never thought would have danced) to get onto the dance floor. I can't say enough about how pleased we were with Brandon's talents and feel so grateful that The Knot had him on their vendor list for us to find.

Films That Are Real, Candid & Authentically You. Every film of ours was created for one couple, and only them. We don’t follow a template or chase a certain style. Instead, we let the feeling of the day guide us. The way you move together, the energy of your celebration, the moments that unfold naturally, these are what shape the story. That’s why no two films look or sound the same. From the music to the pacing to the way we tell your story, everything is built around who you are and how you love.

Booking Interstellar Films was the very best decision my partner and I could have made. From the beginning, Sebastien was incredibly friendly and supportive. He really listened to our ideas and they were extremely communicative throughout the entire wedding process. The day of the wedding, he was so calm and added such a happy demeanor. The filming style was so subtle, it was as if he wasn’t even there. Sebastien captured the absolute best memories. Even after receiving our final product, we had so many compliments from guests boasting about how beautiful the video turned out. We couldn’t have imagined booking any other vendor.

No trendy filters, no forced poses, just authentic moments that reflect who you are. I believe the best moments aren’t staged. They unfold naturally, in the quiet glances, the belly laughs, and those unspoken connections shared with your loved ones. My goal is to capture those raw, in-between moments that truly make your wedding day yours!

Katherine helped us capture our civil ceremony at SF City Hall and we couldn't have been luckier to find her! She is incredibly fun, professional, organized, and delivered everything exactly as she described. A few things we especially appreciated was that since we had a full destination wedding planned a couple months later, she was very mindful of our budget and worked with us to still get what we were wanting for the civil ceremony. She also created a fantastic guide to SF City Hall Weddings that she sent early and to help get us prepared. And she's very thorough and communicative; she responds to emails promptly and if there was even a slight delay in delivering anything she told us immediately. And of course the photos turned out beautifully! Overall, we just loved her energy. Since she set up a video call before our date to get to know us and what we were looking for, it was like meeting an old friend when the day came. She was so easy to work with and we felt immediately comfortable with her. I can only imagine what a joy she is to have for a full wedding! We highly recommend working with Katherine!

I’m Colin Pattison, owner and filmmaker at Featherstone Wedding Films. I film weddings because I believe in the power of marriage, and I have a passion for capturing special moments on film. I’ve helped countless couples create their ideal wedding film for over 10 years. My goal is to capture lasting memories through beautiful, personalized wedding films. From first consultation, to finished film, I’ll be with you every step of the way.

Colin was probably one of the easiest vendors to work with. We chatted on the phone to get to know him, sent him our deposit and that was that! We talked a bit leading up to the wedding, but he and my photographer communicated to get on the same page/ timeline so I didn’t have to stress much about that either. The day of, him and his team were wonderful all day. They themselves were professional, and all his gear was as well. One of the things I appreciated most about Colin was his ability to be everywhere to get footage, but he was secretive about it, so those that are shy on camera didn’t feel pressured. My videos I got were AMAZING. I don’t know how many times we have watched the videos together or how many I’ve watched it alone but, every time feels like the first. It’s beautiful work and truly captured our wedding day and our personalities. We also got raw footage from him that had us cackling. It’s awesome seeing the day again through both the finished product and the raw footage. Thank you Colin for everything. I highly recommend Colin to everyone!!

Richard was helpful and respectful throughout our entire wedding planning process. He worked flawlessly with me, my partner, and our wedding planner to pull off an incredibly fun reception. Richard did an initial call with my partner to discuss the general vibe we were looking for, and we knew immediately he would be a great fit for our wedding. Richard gave us a helpful questionnaire to fill out key songs and general musical interests (and do not play songs). Richard was also happy to jump on calls with us to talk through our questions and hopes for our big day. I especially appreciated that Richard was able to play some German songs for some guests who had flown in from Germany, as that got even some of our older relatives on the dance floor. People were partying all night thanks to Richard! Richard catered to our wide age range of guests, and even gave us a couple of bonus closing songs that were the perfect conclusion to the night. We could not have asked for a better DJ.

One word: Perfect. As someone who suffers from severe anxiety, I can honestly say I have never felt more at-ease and confident than while working with the Wedgewood Weddings Redwood Canyon team -- they always had our backs, kept us on track, and made us feel taken care of. From the first venue visit, during the planning meetings, all the way until the rehearsal and wedding day, the professionalism, clear communication, planning resources, and organized approach made for a seamless experience. We worked with Allison as our Wedding Planner and Coordinator and I firmly believe that she is one of the main reasons our wedding went as incredibly as it did. Redwood Canyon, provides a planning binder as soon as you sign that includes monthly checklists ahead of the wedding to help keep you organized in between planning meetings. It is also filled with valuable information about the wedding planning process, examples, vendor questions, and general guidelines. It helped us structure the planning process without losing the ability to truly personalize our event. Every meeting we had with the planning team was concise, direct, and organized -- it helped us stay on track throughout the process and gave us the opportunity to discuss ideas and ask for advice (which they are also more than happy to give via email). Super responsive and accommodating -- we were so impressed with how easy the process was. We also partnered with their recommended Bakery, DJ, and Florist as part of our vendor team, and the coordination between venue and vendors was absolutely seamless...by the time the week of the wedding rolled around all the main aspects were locked in and we knew the event was in good hands. The wedding day itself was perfect. Allison served as our Day-Of-Coordinator, and together with Jacoby (co-coordinator), Liv (banquet captain), Liz (banquet captain), and rest of the team (cooks, servers, bartenders) we had the most incredible wedding. We arrived at the agreed-upon time on the day of the wedding, and from that moment onwards, the Redwood Canyon team took over to deliver the best experience. They were organized, calm, kept us well hydrated and fed, and kept everything on track for us all night. We were able to confidently hand off the reins -- we didn't have to think of anything all day other than having a good time and enjoying our day as much as possible, trusting that all the logistics were in good hands. Overall, the venue itself was gorgeous. We had our ceremony in the Arbor Lawn, our Reception in the Grand Ballroom (we initially chose the venue primarily because of the dance floor), and rented out the Rose Room for the Cocktail Hour. Everything was included and beautifully decorated with all our desired personal touches, the food and drinks were delicious, and the planning and coordination services must be some of the best in the business. I can't imagine a more incredible experience than what we had and am so thankful for the Redwood Canyon team's care and professionalism -- especially Allison, who we were fortunate enough to work with from first meeting through the day-of. The wedding day went off without a hitch and I couldn't recommend the Redwood Canyon team more 3

My artistry centers on creating looks that feel fresh yet timeless — elevated, understated, and softly luminous. My signature style is skin-forward, breathable, and glow-enhancing, designed to elevate your natural beauty with a polished, skin-like finish that never feels heavy or overdone. I use luxury, high-performance products chosen for comfort, longevity, and flawless wear in every light. Above all, my goal is for your makeup to feel effortless and confidence-giving — enhancing who you are without ever feeling like too much.

Awarded Best of Zola
I hired Sam for hair and makeup for my wedding in August 2025, and it was the best decision I could have made. After several trials with other artists that left me feeling caked-up and not like myself, I was close to skipping hair and makeup altogether. Then I found Sam through referrals — and I’m so glad I did. Sam made me feel stunning, but more importantly, she made me feel like me — just the most elevated version. I asked for beach waves, a style I’ve requested countless times but have never actually gotten (I usually end up with big, pageant-style curls). Sam was the first to truly nail the natural, effortless look I’d been dreaming of. She also did hair and makeup for my mom, mother-in-law, sister, and one bridesmaid. Every single one of them felt beautiful, and my sister even said she liked her hair and makeup that day more than on her own wedding. On your wedding day, the last thing you want is to feel anxious or like you’ve dropped the ball — and when I forgot to pre-plan a couple of services for my bridal party, Sam made sure I didn’t feel that way for a second. She stayed longer than scheduled, handled everything with grace, and made me feel like nothing had been missed and everything was perfect. She is extremely thoughtful, and her social/emotional intelligence is through the roof. By the end of the night, my makeup still looked flawless, and my hair had fallen into the perfect shape. She’s not just an incredibly talented artist — she’s the exact kind of calming, positive energy you want around on such an important day. I’d recommend her again and again. She’s worth every penny.

Alma and her team truly made our day easy, allowing me to fully enjoy it with my family, friends, and new husband. The quality of their work and value they provided was fantastic - I would highly recommend Alba Decorations to any couple planning their wedding.

We are so happy we went with Chabot Space and Science Center for our wedding. We wanted something unique that also aligned with our interests -- our background in physics, astronomy, and space. The staff at Chabot are incredibly kind and were quick to respond to our emails and questions. The space was incredibly expansive and unique for our guests. The planetarium ceremony was our favorite part, and we will treasure those memories forever. As an educator myself, I fully appreciate that Chabot is a non-profit organization and that my deposit/rental fee goes back to the community and staff. Thank you again for making our day so special!

"Literally The Best Wedding Food I've Ever Had." -Guest at our wedding If you are even thinking about booking Americano for your wedding, stop thinking and DO IT. Hiring them was single-handedly the best decision we made in our entire wedding planning process. We knew we wanted our food to be a highlight, not an afterthought, and the Americano team delivered a culinary experience that was beyond our wildest dreams. Our guests are still raving about it weeks later! From our very first inquiry, their catering manager (Beni) and team were an absolute dream to work with. They were responsive, incredibly organized, and genuinely excited about creating a menu that felt personal to us. They took our vision and elevated it with creative ideas, turning the tasting into one of our favorite pre-wedding memories. They made the entire process feel completely seamless and stress-free. Now, let's talk about the food on the wedding day. Show-stopping. We had the burrata with prosciutto and fig jam for a starter, and people were losing their minds over how fresh and flavorful it was. For mains, the slow-braised short rib literally melted in your mouth, and the sea bass was cooked to absolute perfection. It wasn't just "good wedding food"—it was exceptional food, period. The presentation was stunning, the ingredients were top-tier, and everything was served hot and flawlessly. Multiple guests—including our pickiest family members—pulled us aside to say it was the most delicious and memorable meal they had ever had at a wedding. Americano didn't just cater our wedding; they created an unforgettable experience that became a core memory of our celebration. They are worth every single penny and then some for the impact they will have on your day. Book them. You will be so, so happy you did!

My husband and I just got married at Jefferson Street Mansion and it was the most perfect wedding we could have ever imagined - it exceeded our vision! The whole JSM team was so amazing to work with and made planning as stress-free as possible. We stuck to the planning timeline they provided in the planning binder (which was SO helpful to have) and had everything ready in time. Our guests all raved about what a fabulous wedding it was. We customized the venue quite a bit bringing in our own decor and personal touches and it did not feel cookie-cutter at all even though it is an all-inclusive venue. I am so happy we chose JSM!! The recommended vendors were all outstanding, the food was delicious, everything ran smoothly during the wedding and I didn't have to stress about a thing. The mansion, ceremony area, and reception tent are all BEAUTIFUL. I could not have asked for a more perfect day.

From the moment we first met with AnnaMarie and the team at AR Weddings N Events, we knew we were in good hands. Their communication style was attentive, positive, and enthusiastic throughout the entire planning process. The attention-to-detail, big picture perspective, and warm approach they brought to executing our vision was truly impressive. AnnaMarie executed our vision for the table settings and flowers perfectly while I was away getting ready, and they were around monitoring the entire wedding to make sure it was perfect and we didn't hear of any problems. As very organized and anxious planners, we appreciated that AnnaMarie checked in with us bi-weekly to ensure everything was on track. They truly brought our dream wedding to light.
