We booked Oris and Oak for our son's wedding and couldn't be happier with our choice. As the mother of the groom, I typically prefer traditional church ceremonies, but this venue completely changed my mind once everything came together. The property is gorgeous with lush, well-maintained grounds that made for stunning photos, and the layout was perfect with the ceremony and reception right next to each other. We had eleven bridesmaids getting ready in the house, and there was plenty of space for everyone to move around comfortably. The team was quick to respond to our questions and so kind throughout the planning process, according to my daughter-in-law. There's honestly not a single thing I would change about our day—the venue, the service, and the overall experience were all flawless.

Harper Films 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
Hoover, AL
  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $2,850

The phrase "telling your story" is quite clichè wouldn't you agree? In 2015 when I began cinematography, that was the most popular phrase that videographers would state on their websites, funny enough that's still the case in 2024 lol. From watching my films couples say that my brand is very relatable and thats what I try to be mostly. Relatable in the music that I pair my films with, to the camera angles that your used to seeing growing up watching a Hype Williams music video on Bet network. Our culture needs a "young Hype Williams" in the wedding scene and i like to think of myself as him, Harper Films..

Harper Films was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding videography. From the very first inquiry, they were responsive, prompt, and professional in all of their communication. On the day of the wedding, Anthony is hardworking and creative, capturing all the special moments beautifully. The final product was high-quality and great value for the price. I would highly recommend Harper Films to any couple looking for a talented and dedicated wedding videography team.

  • Starts at $190

At ARZEL in Birmingham, Alabama, we specialize in helping grooms and wedding parties look their best with affordable, modern suits that are yours to own. Founded in 2014, we combine expert tailoring, fast service, and personal attention to detail. From timeless classics to bold trends, each look is designed to match your wedding style. With group packages, full alterations, and dedicated wedding specialists, we make finding your perfect wedding suit in Birmingham simple and stress-free.

The Arzel team was not a direct vendor for our wedding. Our groomsmen and bridesmaids were given free rein to provide and source their own outfits for the wedding. They were just given a level of dress formality and a color palette. We did however recommend Arzel as an option for our groomsmen and family members. The team at Arzel handled each of our friends and family individually, and we received incredible feedback from them. Arzel was mindful of their individual budgets and the wedding formality and color guidelines. They truly helped each person find something they genuinely liked and it showed on the wedding day and in the photos. As the Bride, it provided me a piece of mind that our friends and family were able to find appropriate outfits that they were excited to wear. I will call out one specific act of kindness from the Arzel team. One of the fathers in our wedding party had been going through some severe medical issues that had drastically changed their sizing and appearance. The Arzel team helped them find a suit, shirt, tie, and shoes on very short notice. The Arzel team also helped rush the suit tailoring so it would fit properly in time for the wedding. The Arzel team handled our father’s situation with grace and compassion, in making the selection and fitting as easy and seamless as possible for them. Overall we avoided any major issues with wardrobe on the day of. Everyone in the wedding party was able to focus on celebrating together and enjoying the day. The wedding photos of the party came out incredible. You can truly see how comfortable and confident everyone felt, including the individuals wearing Arzel items.

My husband and I were very particular with our wedding venue choice and we could not be happier. As wedding photographers and videographers ourselves, we could not recommend a better option to any couples looking. Not only is the venue itself beautiful and peaceful, but hiring the manager Amanda to coordinate our wedding was the best decision we could have made for our wedding. When we were on the hunt for a venue, our priority was to find a safe space for our wedding party, friends, and family belonging to the LGBTQIA and BIPOC communities. We did not want any person feeling unsafe or singled out on our wedding day. Having this confirmed and reassured that the venue and Amanda were inclusive made everyone’s experience phenomenal. In addition to this, it was difficult finding a place that wasn’t rustic or a barn. Many of the locations that aren’t barns also didn’t fit our vibe or they were unaffordable. For this venue, you get the best of both worlds: an elegant location that also feels like home, all while being affordable with excellent payment plans available. We received so many compliments on this location from so many different people. Whether it was the elderly family members or young friends, everyone was so impressed with the space and amazed by the ballroom for the reception. The layout of the space made it so easy for a seamless day. Amanda provided insight and assistance for everything we needed and our vendors loved her. Our wedding gallery could not be more perfect, because of this space and her hard work. This is now the top venue that we recommend to our couples! We are excited to continue to come back to capture more love stories at Mountain View Gardens and Ballroom and maintain a connection with Amanda for future couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had my wedding at Belle Farm in November 2026 with 75-80 people. It was beautiful and the perfect day! They were so willing to work with me as I planned even adding additional hours for me and my bridesmaids to get ready! I planned my entire wedding long distance, only getting to physically see the space once before the big day, but communication was smooth and timely, and they had great recommendations for other venders who have worked with them before (venders who already knew the space made it easier because they already knew the drill: where to park and how to set up to maximize the ceremony and reception spaces). Parking was easy for both guests and caterers, the bridal suite had plenty of space even with the many people I had going in and out all day, and the groom’s suite was perfect for the men and provided a space for us to store things during the reception. The ceremony space was beautiful. It looks big, but even with only 75 people, it did not look empty. The reception lodge was perfect; I specifically loved the bar, the mixed chairs, and the twinkling lights they had there. We did our grand entrance coming down the stairs after eating a private meal up in one of the groom’s rooms and that was a lot of fun. All the tables they provided were perfect for each need whether it be food, the cake, presents, welcome decorations, etc. Finally, the entire farm was exactly what I wanted for pictures! There are so many spots with great lighting for all the pictures you could want. And even with all you could want, I love how they are committed to improve, continuously adding more small details. If you’re looking for outdoor, woodsy, romantic vibe without it looking too much like a barn wedding, this is the venue for you! (It’s also super military friendly (meaning discounts ;)) The only maybe problem would be that it is a bit outside of town and in the middle of nowhere, being 45 minutes from Birmingham, but that is to be expected if you want the quiet and open space like I did. But my guests figured out driving from Birmingham where they stayed for the weekend, so it can work!

We truly don’t think we could’ve done it without her help!

  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Hoover, AL

Hello! I am a Birmingham based photographer & videographer specializing in weddings since 2018! I started out in the industry offering wedding films and have expanded to offer both photography and video coverage to all my couples looking to find ways to capture as many of the memories they will want to cherish forever! My favorite part about weddings is being able to present the final images and videos to my couples and knowing that the memories captured on their wedding day will always be cherished for many years to come!

Matt was so easy to work with. I’ve worked with him on many occasions, and he made it VERY easy for me to know what he wanted, and he is so professional that he can relate to anyone at any venue. He is one that most wedding couples love and want back. I definitely see him as being a long-term vendor of mine and I anticipate him being a photographer that follows his clients throughout their lives. 5 stars, EASY.

Hey my name is Taylor Pickle. I’m a photographer based in Birmingham Al. I’ve been doing photography for 2 years. I would love to take your wedding pictures and capture your memories! I would love to be apart of your special day! 🤍

Taylor was called in at the very last minute when our wedding photographer woke up sick the morning of. She did a fantastic job and not once did I see her stressed! We have quite a few kids and she captured them all beautifully. The photos of our ceremony and reception were stunning as well and really captured the day well. Both the indoor and outdoor pictures were beautiful. Nothing was edited in an unnatural or unflattering way, and I enjoyed the mix of grayscale and color images she provided us. Absolutely recommend her!
