From the moment we first reached out to Old North State Photography, their communication was clear and quick. Justin was easy to work with, engaging us throughout the photoshoot and capturing us candidly for our engagement pictures!

Sarah is a delight to work with before the wedding day, during the wedding day, and after! She is organized, kind, creative and does absolutely beautiful work.

Nicole Stone Weddings 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Wake Forest, NC
  • Officiant
  • Offers 9 ceremony types
  • Starts at $500

I’m one of those people who loves love. Not the dramatic, rom-com “will they won’t they” type of love, but the type of love that sustains decades of life together as partners. For the last 10+ years, I’ve put that passion into my work as a marriage therapist. I’ve seen inside so many marriages, and I truly value what it means to live that commitment. I want your wedding ceremony to feel like it captures who you are, what you mean to each other, and the heart of the promise you’re making. It’s a big, beautiful commitment! It would be an honor for me to be a part of sharing your love story with those who have gathered to celebrate with you.

Nicole was amazing from start to finish! She really made sure I felt secure and was open to every last minute change. She was very accommodating and had several suggestions whenever asked. She acted as an advisor to a very unsure bride, and at the end of the day, everything went very smoothly!

I'm an elopement photographer, because I believe eloping couples deserve to have wedding days that are full of comfort, playfulness, and adventure somewhere stunningly gorgeous with zero stress! <3. I specialize in Glacier National Park and Western North Carolina elopements and love to serve couples with unlimited planning assistance.

We were SO blessed to have Des. She is so much more than a photographer. She has become our biggest hype girl and such a close friend, since working working with her. She will take such excellent care of you and make sure that you have a day that is an honest reflection of your relationship. She was able to guide us into choosing the most epic location, connect us with incredible vendors, and put us at complete ease. We’re super laid back and she made everything so easy and chill. We were taken care of through the entire experience. We we’re nervous about exploring somewhere new, but Des knows her stuff and was able to navigate us through the location scouting process seamlessly. The day of felt nothing like a photo session and more like hanging out with a really cool friend that gave you as much space as you needed to be vulnerable with your partner, while also keeping the hype up. She had such an incredible pulse on our needs. We were nervous about looking awkward or feeling camera-shy, but she knew exactly what to say to help up feel comfortable. There was no awkward posing or forced emotion, just really subtle prompting that helped you ease into each moment. The entire day was amazing and none of it would have happened without her skill and guidance. We felt like we could trust her to keep us present in the most important moments. We cried when we got our images, they were absolutely breathtaking and 1000% us. We loved being able to share this day through these images with all of our friends and family that weren’t there. They were able to laugh and cry with us. Getting your gallery from Des is like getting to relive your favorite day all over again. She is an absolute gem that impacted our lives in such a positive way. We had no idea how gorgeous Montana was until Des blew our minds with all of the incredible knowledge that she has. If you’re curious about how amazing eloping can be, she’s the girl to talk to. We would do it all over again in a heartbeat.

I love photography and often I would like to pause life to enjoy a special moment for just a little longer. I started my journey by photographing nature but was always drawn to weddings and portraits. I've been photographing weddings in Wine Country in CA since 2008. I recently moved to Raleigh, NC. It takes an experienced photographer to make people comfortable in front of the camera in order to capture their true personalities. I am available for weddings, engagements, portraits, and events in Raleigh/ Durham, NC and I am starting to offer destination weddings including Europe. I truly love what I do!

Magdalena is kind, professional and is an outstanding photographer. I have worked with Magdalena for over 10 years and she is always charming to fellow vendors and to the bridal party and their guests. I can recommend her services one hundred per cent.

Currently booking for 2026 & 2027 I've been photographing weddings & couples for 11+ years and couldn't imagine doing anything else! Wedding Photographer 🏳️‍🌈 For ALL couples. Based in Raleigh, NC, and am always available for travel within the US.

Awarded Best of Zola
My fiancé (now husband) found Casie for us during the wedding planning process, and I immediately fell in love with her work! Her darker style was exactly what I was looking for and her wedding engagement package is extremely well priced. Working with her felt like meeting up with an old friend. I was very worried about how I would feel about posing and if I would look awkward and she did such an amazing job directing me in a way that felt natural. I have not received a picture from her that I do not like. Casie also made the planning process so easy. She even met with me over facetime to address some anxiety I was having regarding the timeline. I ended up adding 2 hours to the photography package (again, very reasonably priced). Overall, I genuinely have nothing bad to say about Casie and her work. She is a joy to work with, her work is incredible, and she is such a fun person to be around!

Hi, I’m Rebecca—the heart and eye behind the lens. I’m a wedding photographer drawn to the quiet, in-between moments—the ones that often go unnoticed but mean everything. The soft glances, the gentle laughter, the way your hands find each other without thinking. Those are the moments that tell your story honestly. With a refined, minimal approach, I focus on creating imagery that feels effortless and timeless. My goal isn’t just to document how your day looked, but to preserve how it felt. The emotions, the connection, the intimacy that makes your love uniquely yours.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we booked The RF Collective, her communication was effective, timely, and responsible. On the day of our wedding, she made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and even got on her knees to help me bustle my dress before greeting our guests. The final photos were absolutely stunning - the quality of her work is truly beautiful and natural. She also gave us previous for both engagement and wedding sessions (which I LOVED). We couldn't be happier with the memories they captured of our special day. Highly highly recommend!

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,695
  • Serves Wake Forest, NC

In Raleigh, Just like in Durham, Chapel Hill, and throughout North Carolina, once the guests arrive …the wedding DJ is the most consquential wedding vendor that you'll hire. The average wedding puts 75%-80% of their event in their DJ's hands. That's why, when it’s time to celebrate and have fun, you can relax and enjoy your event with Stylus! Entertainment is the single most important part of how your wedding will be remembered. If your wedding DJ isn’t getting everyone of all ages involved, from your friends to your parents and grandparents, then they’re probably not playing the right mix for you.

Stylus S.E. was the perfect choice for our wedding band and DJ. From our very first meeting, they were excellent communicators - personable, engaging, and really took the time to understand our vision for the day. Their reliability and user-friendly process were invaluable in keeping our wedding day stress-free. The pre-wedding meetings were incredibly helpful in nailing down all the details, and on the big day, they showed up on time and kept the dance floor full all night long. We couldn't have asked for a better team to bring the energy and excitement to our special celebration. Highly recommend Stylus S.E. to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and all-around wonderful DJ service.
