I cannot say enough wonderful things about Masha at Emerald Glam Co. in Santa Rosa Beach! Masha made me feel absolutely beautiful on my wedding day. She listened to exactly what I wanted and brought my vision to life perfectly. My hair and makeup were stunning! The greatest compliment came when I was standing face-to-face with my husband at the altar and seeing me brought tears to his eyes. That is a moment I will cherish forever, and Masha played such a special part in making me feel that beautiful.

Where do we even begin. Finding Billy was truly a divine gift from above. She and her family were everything we needed and more! Billy exceeded our expectations from day one. We worked with her for over a year, and throughout that time, she was always there for us when we had questions, worries, and moments of uncertainty. She helped us through every challenge and kept us at ease through all the phases of wedding planning. Billy was available any time by phone when we needed her, to take on tasks, and kept a positive can-do attitude! She was so talented at guiding us through the first stages of the budget, helping us find our wedding design, and was a total rock start on wedding day! She and her crew made our day run so smoothly and were there to take the stress off us so we could enjoy each moment of our wedding. I genuinely can’t recommend Billy, her team, and her preferred vendors enough! She will always be a special part of our wedding and our lives. She genuinely cares about her clients’ happiness and was a major part in helping my husband and I build a stronger bond during our engagement and throughout our wedding. When you sign up with Team DeSilva, you will not only get a beautiful and well-coordinated event, but you will experience kindness, graciousness, and compassion that is only given by someone who genuinely cares for you and the work they do!

Her partner, Jerome, also provided custom-made songs that truly touched our mother’s heart and the hearts of everyone in attendance. The photographer was excellent, and every detail of the event was handled with care. Nothing was overlooked! I waited a week to post because my husband, my mother, and I were still overjoyed by how beautifully everything turned out. We also wanted to share photos of the event space so others could see the amazing work for themselves. We could not recommend Radiant Touch LLC more highly for celebration and party planning.

Josh and Tori shot our wedding in May of 2020 amidst all the uncertainty of a Covid wedding! They were so flexible and professional during that time, and we were so thankful! They are considerate and sweet, while remaining detailed and organized, which proves to be a valuable skill set balance for someone who will follow you around, be in your personal space, and capture the most precious moments of such a significant day! And the videography they produce is stunning! My Mother in Law couldn't stop telling people about how amazing it was, that it looked like a Hollywood budget movie! And she never gushes about anything haha! Since my wedding in 2020, I started my own successful luxury wedding planning business, and I am more convinced now than ever that Josh and Tori are the most caring, talented, and professional video team! I've seen Josh pour over his footage for hours, painstakingly editing each frame for the best light and color balance. The care and love his team puts into their work is unparalleled! Their turnaround times are reasonable and considerate. You could not ask for a more dedicated and skilled video team. They bring all the best equipment, the most skilled and coordinated team, and incredible passion for their work! My wedding video is so treasured! We love Written in Film!

I attended an event that Tipsy 30a was participating in and I only have great things to say. They were incredibly professional, very personable, and made killer drinks. Everything was clearly fresh and only the best alcohol was served. Each drink was crafted with care and tasted delicious. I would highly recommend them for any event!

Pearl Coast Weddings is a wedding photography and videography company created for couples who want more than just pretty images — they want their wedding story captured with emotion, beauty, and intention. We specialize in artistic, natural, and timeless wedding photography and films that preserve the real feeling of the day, from quiet emotional moments to the energy of the celebration.

At ninety years old, I never imagined I'd live to see my great-niece get married, so this day meant more to me than words can express. The photographer was so gentle and patient with me, making sure I was comfortable and included in as many photos as possible. My favorite is a picture of four generations of women in our family standing together, something we may never get the chance to recreate. This team understood the rarity and importance of that moment, and I'll be forever thankful they captured it so beautifully
