DJ Rick A was hands down the BEST!!! he was so fun & energetic and played bangers back-to-back-to-back x 10 to where the dance floor was NEVER empty (and we didn’t really have a dancing crowd). we had the twilight baseball scene as the grand entrance and he HYPED everyone up for it. towards the end of the night, we got caught up talking to guests so he was packing up, but he made sure we got our last solo dance also my sister was taking photos of everyone so i wanted to share one of Rick :)

Quincy Hall was an incredible venue for our wedding! We had around 200 guests for our September wedding and it felt simultaneously spacious and cozy. The QH team was very responsive and helped with planning every step of the way. They were also super accommodating and helped fine ways for us to meet out budget while still getting the experience we were looking for. The venue and surrounding area had a number of spots for stunning, industrial vibe photos and we couldn't be happier with the look and feel for our day. Our food was also outstanding. We knew the food at Crave would be delicious, but we received so many compliments from guests about their meals. They have some of the most reasonable prices on the market and the catering staff were super professional and polished. Overall, we had a great experience and would highly recommend Quincy Hall!

MAKEUP ARTIST ONLY Hello! My name is Ashley. I am a professional Minneapolis makeup artist with over eight years of experience. I worked for MAC cosmetics for almost 4 years and that is where I grew as a professional makeup artist. After working for MAC, soaking up all the trainings, learning from the best of the best and doing makeup on many clients, I knew I had what it took to venture off and start my own business. So, I did it afraid: In 2018 I started my own freelance makeup business-Ashley Larae MUA LLC. I couldn’t have done it without my faith in God.

Awarded Best of Zola
Ashley did my makeup for my maternity/boudoir shoot. I gave her freedom to do whatever she wanted on me as I love makeup. She absolutely nailed the look and made me feel so flawless and beautiful. Ashley is so personable and really pays attention to detail while doing your makeup. I could not recommend her more and can’t wait for another excuse to get my makeup done by her. Thank you Ashley!

  • Serves Dayton, MN

After celebrating my own 16th wedding anniversary, my partner and I have truly been able to reflect on what is important on a wedding day, and I'm here to bring the wisdom to you! I believe that digital photography and images are a HUGE gift and can provide us with so many more memories than we were previously able to retain. And, just like reading a physical book vs. an e-book, prints hit different. You're not photographing your own wedding — you're trusting a professional to lead you through the best experience you can have and to give you the best art you can get.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jessica is the best. Hands down. Hire her immediately and never look back. She is a master of her craft. She was fun but professional, everyone loved her, and the photos are beyond anything I could have hoped for. We were not the easiest customers. First, our venue was a museum, not a wedding venue, so she had to be creative and work around a space not designed for weddings. Jessica was unperturbed. She considered everything: where the sun would hit, what time to be where, and how to account for different types of weather. At the end of the day, the photos look like they were not taken in a museum, but belong in a museum. Second, my husband does not like being in photos or having any attention on him whatsoever. When told to smile for the camera, he usually makes a face like he just smelled bad eggs. I do not know what kind of wizard Jessica is, but she is definitely magic. She put him at ease and managed to capture sincere, loving looks. Third, she indulged and hyped up all of my silly ideas, like our first look, which I did in an inflatable dinosaur costume. She reflected exactly the balance of quirky and classy I was going for in our photos. When I got engaged, I envisioned being surrounded by my closest, most cherished friends and family. I did not think about the fact that there would also be a virtual stranger there trying to catch it all on tape. Jessica and I spent almost the entire day together, and it was great. She managed to capture intimate moments without ever being intrusive, but she was not a wallflower either. She was helpful, fun, and truly a joy to be around, making a special day even more special.

Their team pulled off a flawless event that tasted incredible, and what really stood out was how thoughtful they were throughout the day. They boxed up meals for our entertainment before they performed, and when they noticed I was too busy managing things to eat, they made me a plate without me even asking.

CRAVE Catering turned our wedding day into something truly special, and we can't recommend them enough.

Hi we are Kristina and Jody! Revel & Flourish was formed with the idea that ALL couples deserve to find happiness. Our team is here to make sure that becomes a reality for you in the most effortless way possible. When you work with us we'll personally escort you through our processes and tailor an event just for you.

Kristina was amazing to work with for our wedding decor. She gave us great ideas, listened to what we were looking for, and even kindly allowed me to change my mind on decisions. She had a perfect balance of opinions and encouragement. I was in joyful tears when I saw our reception room decor—the candles and lighting were just perfect and better than I’d imagined. We did a sneak peek and I think my face says it all. She made our wedding decor dreams come true—everything was classy, fun, and modern. We’d initially considered the diy route for decor but I’m so incredibly happy we went with Revel and Flourish. The time and care they put into our day was incredible. Their decor looked amazing and I loved getting a quick wave from Kristina as she finished setting everything up. And the team that did the tear down arrived cheerful and organized at the end of the night. Hiring them should be one of the quickest and easiest decisions you make! Well worth it!

My photography style is all about capturing the romance and intimacy of your special day, focusing on those heartfelt, candid moments that make your love story uniquely yours. I have a deep appreciation for the little details that make your wedding day unforgettable, and I take great care to ensure they shine through in every shot.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hannah first photographed our family when we were just starting out and wanted to have a cute baby announcement. She has now been photographing our family for 9 years, and she really is amazing. She manages to catch candid moments that show love and our natural personalities which are my favorite kind of photos. She never over edits, and I am always confident that the images will be ones that truly reflect our family dynamic. More importantly though, Hannah is an empath who understands neurodivergent brains. She is so patient with my boys who both struggle at times. She doesn’t judge, she can help prevent a meltdown, and knows when we might need a break or change. She cares deeply and that is always reflected in her work.

Being able to test my style out ahead of time allowed me to not have to be fully with it for my 6am start. Sabrina and Kimmy were outstanding for makeup and hair, respectfully.

We were planning a hybrid cultural wedding, which can sometimes be daunting for vendors, but Monica embraced it wholeheartedly and made us feel supported every step of the way. We also appreciated the flexibility of being able to tour the venue multiple times without any pushback. By the time our wedding day arrived, it truly felt like we were inviting guests into our own home. One thing to note: the venue requires that the get-ready rooms be cleaned out before the ceremony begins. This was a bit inconvenient as things got hectic, and we recommend couples assign someone specifically to manage that, as we did lose track of a few personal items after the event. The only other downside is that you're required to use their exclusive catering partner, Mintahoe (we've left a separate review for them). Overall, we couldn’t be happier with our experience. The Van Dusen Mansion is a stunning venue with a fantastic team, and we’re so grateful to have celebrated our special day there! Photo cred: @storytellercoweddings

We loved working with Studio Veil for our Minneapolis wedding!! Set up and take down was seamless on our wedding day, and correspondence was always easy and fast. Everyone was raving about how much they loved their Photo Booth photos. We used the black and white glamour filter booth so everyone looked amazing without realizing they had a light filter on.

Sarah traveled for my up north elopement to do my hair and makeup, and I am so thankful for her flexibility and talents! We did a trial run and communicated back and forth on what tweaks to make so the final look would be perfect. On the day of, Sarah came fully prepared for any situation - including snow for the outside ceremony! My makeup was perfect for the entire day and shined through the pictures.
