JB Photography was the absolute best to work with! From the very first zoom call, Jenna’s energy, experience and passion were so clear. She is creative, thoughtful and detail-oriented - from making us feel at ease during our engagement photoshoot (the first time we ever did a “formal” shoot as a couple), through expertly navigating the wedding day timeline ensuring that every moment was captured, Jenna made sure that every detail was covered. When we received all of our photos we were blown away by how she and her team captured everything, from the smallest detail to the full group shots, in such beautiful and creative ways. Now the hard part - choosing our favorites (which we know Jenna will beautifully layout in an album which we’ll cherish forever)!

Hi friend, I’m Madaline! I love hiking in the Adirondacks, jet skiing the Great Sacandaga and fishing any body of water I can in the warm summer months. In the winter you can find me cozied up next to the wood stove, baking in the kitchen or snowboarding the Northeast. My husband and I have been married nearly 14 years and it just keeps getting better! We have two daughters who I have the privilege of spending my days with. They keep me on my toes, challenge me and have proven I can love so much deeper than I ever thought possible. They have helped me to sharpen my skills by allowing me to photograph them in every setting possible.

I would highly recommend Madaline as a photographer! We hired her for our wedding in 2023 in the Adirondack, our photos were breathtaking! Everyone still talks about the lake photos, she even stood in the lake to get the most beautiful photos we could have asked for! She is a very kind person, super fun person to work with, she is organized and definitely a representative for the bride. We think she was a great addition to our wedding and would recommend for any event! We also had her take our engagement photos prior to the wedding where we went hiking and took them a top a mountain! If I could get married again, I would hire her again with no questions asked!

Brookledge is such a wonderful spot. Our wedding weekend was literally perfect! Not only because of the beautiful venue, but because of the amazing personalities behind Brookledge. Helen, Amber, and the rest of the staff make everything happen for their Brookledge couples and guests. One of my wedding guests mentioned how calm and relaxed our wedding felt, and that is exactly how I felt the entire weekend as well. The power ended up going out during our reception, and Amber already had a back up plan to keep the show running. All of our guests that stayed the weekend complimented how cute and fun the venue was, and we were lucky enough to be the first ones to use the new Trolley and Jean & Lise cabin! The rest of our guests have been raving about the venue as well. If you are considering Brookledge as your wedding venue, or even just a quick stay in one of their various lodging spots, DO IT!!!! This is absolutely a hidden gem, you will not regret it.

Rob is so professional and his eye for photography is superb. My guests were raving about Rob and were even more astounded at the sneak peek photos from my wedding.... which he provided less than a week later! My bridesmaids from Long Island were joking that Rob better make room in his schedule and travel down to Long Island for their future weddings haha When looking for a wedding photographer, he is definitely worth the money!! He even knows all of the best spots at particular venues to take photos, leading to absolutely stunning portraits. I would book Rob and his team again in a heartbeat! Thank you so so much!!

We recently had our wedding at the 408 and could not be happier with our choice. From the staff to the atmosphere, everything was perfect and our guests had nothing but good things to say. We had about 55 people which made for a cozy and intimate wedding that never felt cramped or awkward in the space. The 408 is already so beautifully decorated which allowed us to bring in minimal items and utilize items already at the 408 such as candles, vases, and plants to decorate the tables and ceremony space. Maria (event manager) was fantastic throughout the planning process answering every question quickly and with detail, and the staff the day of was professional, incredibly friendly, and attentive. We have nothing but good things to say about the 408 and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone regardless of the event type

Wedding Planning Plus was an excellent choice for our wedding planning needs for our June 2025 wedding at the Equniox Resort in Manchester, VT. From the start, their communication style was direct, helpful, and calming, which was greatly appreciated as we planned our big day. The quality of their work and value they provided was outstanding - they were focused, supportive, and incredibly well-connected in the region, using their network of vendors to perfectly execute our wedding and beautifully and bringing our garden party tent reception vision to life. On the day of, Eliza ran the schedule effortlessly and her competence completely allowed my husband and I to be fully present. In particular, we appreciated the way that she approached us over the course of the wedding to check if we still wanted to do the next scheduled item, it gave us a sense of control over how we spent our time rather than feeling like we were manically running from task to task. So many of our friends and family have reported back that the wedding was the smoothest of the weddings they had attended this year, and its all thanks to WPP. We are so grateful for the incredible support Wedding Planning Plus provided and would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

Capturing love in every color of the rainbow, Kristen Renee Photography tells authentic wedding stories through a relaxed, documentary style. Based in Albany, New York and traveling wherever love leads, Kristen and her team focus on genuine moments rather than stiff poses. From intimate elopements to vibrant celebrations, every wedding is approached with curiosity, empathy, and a deep respect for each couple’s unique story. The goal is simple: photographs that feel real, timeless, and unmistakably you.

Choosing a wedding photographer was one of the harder parts of planning for us — we weren’t really sure what to look for and didn’t know much about photography. But from the very first phone call with Kristen, it was instantly clear that she was the one. She’s incredibly organized, knows weddings inside and out, and yet somehow keeps everything feeling laid-back and easy. She made us feel relaxed and taken care of through every step. Our engagement shoot was effortless, fun, and genuinely one of our favorite memories. Kristen has this amazing way of making you feel like you’ve known her for years — warm, calm, and completely present. On our wedding day, Kristen and Sheridan worked together seamlessly. They made everyone feel comfortable, blended right in with our families and wedding party, and brought such positive energy. Kristen was familiar with our venue and knew exactly where to go for the best light and most beautiful backdrops — including places we had no idea even existed, like the rooftop and an incredible hidden attic. She coordinated with the venue team like a total pro and even helped me put in my veil! Shooting our Couple’s portraits with them was one of the most unexpectedly special parts of the day. Kristen and Sheridan made us feel like actual models while keeping it authentic and fun. There was something so meaningful about being photographed by a married couple who clearly love and support each other — it made the whole experience even more emotional and memorable. The photos? Breathtaking. Every single moment — from the big ones to the quiet in-betweens — was captured beautifully. We truly don’t know how they do it. Kristen and Sheridan will always hold a special place in our hearts, and we can’t recommend them highly enough. Do yourself a favor and book them — it’ll be one of the best decisions you make!

It’s the one-on-one relationship that you have with your event host throughout your planning that will, and absolutely should, spill over into the atmosphere of your event. Getting to know you with the desire to personalize your entertainment, not simply customize, is a large part of where creativity comes from, and not just mine, but yours as well! I love to offer many suggestions and ideas for your event but also find it just as important to hear your "unique" and "awesome" ideas.

From start to finish, working with Upbeat Occasions was a breeze. DJ Chris was responsive to our requests and took time to really understand what we wanted, while also reading the room and keeping the energy right all night long. His transitions were smooth and the song order kept people engaged—the dance floor didn't empty once, and I was out there dancing to nearly every track. What impressed us most was how laid back he was while staying totally in tune with what the crowd needed, and our guests wouldn't stop raving about the music selection. Chris made our reception feel effortless and fun, and honestly, it's hard to imagine our day going any better. We'd absolutely recommend Upbeat Occasions to anyone looking for a DJ who actually cares about making your wedding special.

She suggested a final dance song for just us after all our guests left and it was truly the best end to the evening and something we wouldn’t have thought of at all.

We cannot recommend Miriam highly enough! She was kind and caring, professional, and extremely good at her job, for a very decent price. She helped our wedding go so smoothly and we are so incredibly grateful she was part of our special day! Our photographer heard we were looking for an officiant for our wedding, and passed along Miriam’s information. From the moment we connected with her, we felt her warm and friendly energy and felt totally at ease about planning our wedding ceremony! Before we met Miriam, we were not really sure what we wanted our wedding to be, but we did know we wanted it to be written by us, and as a queer couple we did not want a “traditional” wedding. It started off feeling overwhelming with so many details to plan overall, but as soon as we met with Miriam, we felt completely at ease and even excited about the process! We threw out some ideas that wove in our New Age/paganistic spiritual beliefs, and Miriam reached out to her pagan priestess friend and did a deep dive researching for our ceremony and coming back to us with so many wonderful ideas. She thoughtfully and creatively wove all the important elements we hoped for into a beautiful ceremony, down to every detail. She was open to our ideas, and supportive through every step of the way, right up until we were there in the moment getting married, and even after the ceremony. She helped make our wedding so special, and we got so many compliments on how “us” our ceremony was and what a great job Miriam did. 100/10, would recommend, do yourself a favor and take this as your sign to book with her!

Established in 2011, CLH images Photography creates classic, authentic, and true to color photos that stand the test of time. My personal motto is "more is more!" More angles, more photos, more personalized attention to each gallery. Simply put: the more I put in, the more you get out!

From the moment we inquired with CLH Images Photography for our wedding, Carrie's communication was timely, professional, and engaged. The quality of her work is exceptional - both the attention to detail and organization she brought to the planning and execution of the day and of course the photos themselves. It poured rain the few hours before the ceremony, Carrie had the perfect backup plan for where to do our first look and made the whole experience of photos of us and our families seamless. Working with her was also fun, which was something we hoped to find in our photographer because we felt really comfortable in all our interactions with her. We are over the moon with the final photos Carrie produced and could not have asked for a better person to document our wedding day.

The Rosemary at Spano Lake was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, Jackie and Danny were quick to respond, knowledgeable about their offerings, and easy to work with in planning all the details. On the day of the wedding, they were attentive and went the extra mile to ensure our vision came to life.

Blenheim is a beautiful property and the perfect location for a Catskills wedding. Min and Morton are accommodating owners who made sure all of our needs were considered and facilitated. If you want to have an upscale barn wedding that is a highly memorable affair this is absolutely the venue for you! The food is amazing, the staff is on top of everything (shoutout to Rosie!), and the setting is gorgeous. We had multiple wedding events (welcome party, wedding, after party and farewell brunch) and every one was amazing!

Rain at our private home outdoor wedding ended up throwing a wrench in the works for our original photo locations plans on the property. Lindsey seamlessly shifted gears with zero interruptions to make sure we got all the special shots we wanted while staying dry! I had full confidence our photos would be amazing given how calm, cool, and collected Lindsey handled the entire day. And they were!

SoundFormula Entertainment by Mike Napoli

Based in Albany, NY, SoundFormula Entertainment is a DJ and photo booth service that specializes in weddings and special events. This company is owned and operated by DJ Mike Napoli, who offers over two decades of experience in the industry. This entertainer has performed at over 1,000 events, helping to create a high-energy experience for guests and couples alike.

We cannot thank DJ Mike Napoli enough, he was such a big part of our special day! Mike is very easy to talk to and work with. He brings such a friendly positive energy to the table. He kept great communication with us throughout our whole wedding planning process. The app he provided us with made everything so easy! It covered all the music we needed from start to end. We were able to customize and add specific notes to the time line as well. It’s truly a dream for any type A Bride. Besides providing the music, we also chose to use Mikes photobooth service. Our guest were able to take prints home and leave a print in our guest book. It was so nice to be able to look at all the photos and messages that were left by our guests. Within a few days after our wedding Mike also provided us the links to all the photobooth photos. We were unsure about lighting but with Mikes guidance he knew exactly what we needed based on our music choices. We are so grateful for his expertise because it turned out absolutely amazing. Not to mention he came early to set up and ran the whole thing on his own without missing a beat. Truly a 10/10 experience for us. We highly recommend Mike! P.S Our only word of advice…This didn’t affect us in the moment but we did get a lot of feedback from our guests that since we did not have mics our guest could not hear our vows clearly during our ceremony. This is something to consider discussing with Mike if you plan to have him.
