Harpist 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
Westlake, OH
  • Ceremony only

I am a harpist and attorney whose passion for music and justice inspires my creative process. I have diverse playing experiences spanning across my career as a harpist. I began playing harp at the age of 8. At the age of 9, I was invited to participate in Jocelyn Chang’s Harp Ensemble, a group of 12 talented harpist who played during the holiday season. I have also won awards at the Ohio Scottish Games. At Smith College, I played in Orchestra for the performance of Swan Lake, Wind Ensemble and the Celtic Ensemble known as the Wailing Banshees. I am always excited for new opportunities to share my passion for harp music!

Sara was a joy to work with. The minute my wife booked her for our daughter's wedding she was nothing but accommodating. Beside the songs she already knew, she took time to find the music and learn the songs we wanted to hear. She helped to make a beautiful day perfect!

Sage & Iron Creations 
Rating: 5.0 (46 reviews)
  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $1,600
  • Serves Westlake, OH
  • Offer

My name is Ashley. I operate as a portrait photographer based in Cleveland, Ohio, with a specialized focus on capturing evocative, dark, and conceptual themes and I offer multiple editing aesthetics. Over a span of 18 years, I have honed my craft in photography. My educational background includes the attainment of a Certificate of Photography from the Hallmark Institute of Photography in Massachusetts and being self taught.

Awarded Best of Zola
The Important Points about Sage & Iron You Should Not Skip: -Budget friendly -Super flexible -Empathetic and understanding -Professional family wrangler -Prompt communication & transparency -Open to ideas if you've got 'em, but if not that's totally fine too -Easily the most "human" professional photographer I've ever had the pleasure of working with Sage & Iron (we only worked with Ashley) is someone I felt super comfortable with right away--which says a lot because I'm usually so untrusting of most people I hire for things. My husband and I were hunting for a wedding photographer that could provide spooky/moody photos of us, but also some traditional classics too. All with the very tight constraints of funding our small wedding ourselves, we thought we'd never find what we were looking for. *Enter: Sage & Iron* We booked with S&I right away, and while I originally had plans with a friend to take our engagement photos, that fell through, and S&I(Ashley) was SO understanding when I asked about booking an engagement session even though it wasn't originally in our plans. We scheduled for dates in the fall, but it's Ohio, so there was of course rain.. then wind.. so our spooky moody engagement shoot ultimately was pushed to early spring in a cemetery. You would NEVER know that we didn't take these photos in the late-fall! Mission: Accomplished I am chronically forgetful, but Ashley always came through with reminders about payment dates, and was always incredibly flexible with me when I said I'd text her soon and "soon" became days. A Saint of Patience! Not to mention, all of our wedding planning (Read: Me stressing out) was happening while Ashley was experiencing some heavy life-things of her own, but she never once made me feel like anything less than a priority. Truly dedicated to her clients and making sure they feel heard and cared for. Wedding: It was beautiful weather all week, but naturally, bonkers wind and rain the entire day of our wedding. Unfortunately, and at no fault of S&I, our venue that already was lacking in the "indoor photo locations department" decided to book a 1000 guest event at the last minute the same day of our wedding... So are many of our photos in a stairwell not designed for photos? Yes. Did Ashley do her damndest to get interesting photos of the bridal party despite the lack of indoor locations or ideal lighting conditions? I believe so! She was also a champion of wrangling us, keeping the family under control during photo time, delegating whose turn it was to get photos with the bride and groom next, it was like watching a foreman in a work zone. And I NEEDED someone to do that for me because I was, well, a bride. In summary: S&I (Ashley) is a joy and a pleasure to work with, even when I forget to download my own wedding photos before they came down from the website... She still has them stored safely for me to be able to download them. An angel. If you're looking for a photographer who is real with you, keeps you updated, has transparent pricing and won't ever try to bait-and-switch you, cares about you as a human first and foremost, knows how to flex some genuinely cool moody artistic shots but still nails the classics, you've found your vendor!

We had a fabulous wedding reception at the Donauschwaben German Cultural Center (Lenau Park). Their entire staff—from their awesome coordinator Christine to their banquet captain and bar staff—was so kind, so professional, and most importantly made our guests feel welcome and taken care of. Christine came to every meeting organized and prepared. She understands the details as well as the emotions that go into planning a wedding and was a great part of our support system. She is fair and reasonable—even helped us make a German Hall a little more “Italian” for the bride. We could not have asked for a better partner! As for the venue itself, it was the perfect place to host 300 of our closest friends and family. The space was beautiful, bright and happy. Our guests were comfortably seated at 32 round tables of 8 to 10. The team made all of our décor visions come to life. The outdoor patio was welcoming and comfortable for guests as well. The dance floor is huge! Perfect for an Italian tarantella. I would also say the room is set up well acoustically—with 300 people in the room and music playing, you could still hear the other people at your table. The entryway was also perfect for our receiving line. We were happy to see that guests could enjoy their time—whether they wanted to dance the night away, sit and chat, or just enjoy the night air with family. The food was excellent—seriously excellent. We got so many compliments after the wedding! They have their buffet line down to a science with all of our guests being served in a reasonable amount of time. They also did a great job of meeting the needs of our gluten- and dairy-free guests. That is so hard to do when you are feeding so many people, and even these guests said they enjoyed their meals. Finally, the money we spent on this wedding reception was well worth the value. The food and beverage packages are incredibly fair for the quality and the amount of food your guests will be served. We were also able to add appetizers and some special add-ons at a reasonable rate. The linens are provided by a separate vendor, but even those costs were not too bad, and everything looked beautiful when it was decorated! While there are certain rules the venue must follow and sometimes we needed to negotiate the details, Christine was highly transparent and upfront with us, and always worked with us to find the right solution for our day. After hosting our wedding here, we would absolutely do it again with this space and this team. When it comes to the Donauschwaben, we strongly recommend them for your wedding reception and cannot say enough good things about their level of service!

I could not more highly recommend Kristen! Kristen was one of the very first vendors that I booked for my August 2024 wedding and I could not be more happy in that decision. Kristen's style is timeless and true to color. She focuses on capturing the day as it happens rather than focusing only on super posed shots- which I love! Kristen's communication is clear, prompt, and honest- I so appreciated her insight through the wedding planning process and especially in developing the timeline. We also received far more sneak peeks than we expected and I'm still shocked with how quickly we received our full gallery! Kristen, we are so happy you were there to capture our day!

Hi 👋🏼 my name is Katie and I would love to film your wedding day for you! Wedding videography is a creative outlet for me and is not my full time career. I do this because I truly have a passion for capturing love and providing my clients with videos that show their big day exactly as it happened! I film weddings solo on a single professional quality camera (no drones or full scale productions) which allows me to stay in the background as much as possible and capture the day in the most natural way possible.

We are so happy we chose Katie as our wedding videographer! We weren't sure if we would hire a videographer but we found Katie on a Facebook group recommendation and knew she would be the perfect person for it- we never even talked to another option! Her pricing was clear, easy to personalize, and affordable, and she was very friendly, communicative, and easy-going from the start. We loved her "fly-on-the-wall" style as we knew we didn't want scripted, unnatural set-ups taking away time from the day. She captured every special moment of our winter wedding flawlessly and worked great with our photographer. We love the 5-minute video she edited for us, the relaxed "home video" style is so perfect and she caught lots of cute candid moments! She also provided all of the raw footage at our request which we really appreciated. Her editing and delivery was very prompt, we received it all on our honeymoon less than a couple weeks later which was a very pleasant surprise!

I booked C-Town Entertainment at the recommendation of another bride, and I was so happy with Bob and his assistant! I may be biased, but ours was one of the most fun weddings I have been to. Everything ran smoothly and Bob did a great job reading the room and picking songs that brought people to the dance floor whenever needed. He checked in with me and my family/bridal party throughout the evening and made last minute adjustments as needed. He was professional and made sure we had all the moments and songs that we wanted. I have been to weddings with DJs who were not as skilled and it makes a big difference in the flow and energy of the evening. My guests started chanting “one more song!” at the end of the evening, and I think that says it all. I cannot thank you all enough for the care you put into our wedding!

We can’t say enough nice things about this place! Most importantly to us was the excellent communication at every step of the planning process. The space is warm, somewhat (but not overly) fancy, reasonably priced, and welcoming to any size party. Lake Affect gave us a vibe so special it made my dad cry, but never feeling “formal” - aka stuffy. Our only warning to other couples is to plan for extra lighting in the ceremony space. We were VERY impressed with Stefanie’s problem solving ability when vendor issues came up on the day of the rehearsal. LGBTQ friendly as well!

Wonderful to work with, he listens, he explains well. If you have a question or concerns he will communicate effectively with you! My videos were to die for! Beautiful, I still cry watching the video he created for us!

I’m Yevhen, photographer and filmmaker behind Human Artist. I run it with my wife, Julie and a small team of talented artists. I photograph couples who care about style, meaning, and experience. I guide when needed, and step back when the moment speaks.

Working with Human Artist Photography & Cinematic was hands-down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning—our engagement session—to the very last moments of our wedding day, their team went above and beyond to deliver a truly exceptional experience. Yevhen (our photographer), Serhii (our videographer), and their amazing assistant were all incredibly kind, professional, and just so easy to be around. They made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, while still managing to capture all the big, emotional moments and the quiet, candid ones we’ll treasure forever. What stood out most was their attention to detail and how seamlessly they worked together. It never felt staged or stiff—they somehow caught the true essence of our day with such artistry and grace. The final photos and video brought us right back to the moment, and honestly, we cried happy tears all over again. If you're looking for a team that will not only deliver stunning, timeless memories but also make the process feel joyful and effortless, we truly can’t recommend Human Artist enough. They’re more than just vendors—they felt like part of our celebration. Thank you, Yevhen, Serhii, and team—we are forever grateful!

We loved hosting our event at Pinstripes! We had such a great time having our own private bowling, with our own server - and the food was AMAZING! Thank you Pinstripes Crew!

Photojournalist, Virgo, & everyone's self-proclaimed bestie. I want to know your story and I really want to pet your dog. I pride myself on being the type of person you will want to keep coming back to share your life with. I hope you love the way I tell stories but mostly I hope I can make you feel seen the way you deserve to be.

We planned our backyard wedding in 2 weeks and were SO lucky that Chelsea was available to photograph our day! She made my parents backyard look like our dream venue through her photos. She was super communicative, professional, and helped make our wedding run smoothly. Would highly highly recommend!!
