Dorcas was great from the very beginning. She made everything so easy and helped put the whole package together with the catering, bartender, photographer, DJ, and décor. Everyone did an amazing job. The food was delicious, the bartender was fun, the DJ played exactly what we wanted, and Susan made everything look beautiful. It was all set up just the way I pictured it. I felt like I was probably a little difficult because I knew exactly what I wanted and was very straightforward, but Dorcas never made me feel that way. She was always kind and reassuring. The pricing was very reasonable for everything that was included, and I honestly didn't have to lift a finger on our wedding day. Everything went smoothly, and we had such a great time. I would definitely recommend them!

We first discovered El Pampeano Steakhouse through a wedding decorator and were blown away by their catering for our wedding in November 2024. Seeing them now on Zola reminded us of the wonderful experience we had, and we wanted to leave our review. Everything was flawless: the food was delicious, the service attentive and professional, and Leo, the grill master, and his wife Lore were always on top of every detail. They truly made our wedding even more special and memorable. We highly recommend El Pampeano Steakhouse to any couple looking for catering that combines amazing flavor, attentive service, and genuine dedication.

I truly can't say enough good things about Carissa. She was so great and easy to work with. I'm someone who is particular about makeup, and I was genuinely so happy with how it turned out on my wedding day. When I got my pictures and video back, I kept thinking "wow, I LOVE the way I look!" Carissa made me feel so beautiful on a day that can be overwhelming and stressful. All of my bridesmaids loved the way their makeup turned out as well (and we all know it can be hard to please a bunch of women). I would 100% recommend booking with Carissa.

Hello friends! My name is Mariella. I’m 26 year old, a wife, a girl mama, and proud business owner! I have always loved everything about weddings. From start to finish I love the aspect of planning every detail and bringing a vison to life. My passion for this industry has grown throughout the years.

My wife, Summer, was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in 2024. This year, I decided to apply to Wish Upon a Wedding in hopes of giving Summer the day she always hoped for. Wish Upon a Wedding is a nonprofit organization that gifts weddings and vow renewals to couples facing terminal or life-changing illnesses. When they came into our lives, Summer and I were in a season where joy felt complicated and hope looked very different than we imagined. Through Wish Upon a Wedding, we were paired with our wedding planner, Married by Mariella. Mariella donated her time, talent, and heart completely free of charge. What’s important to say is that Mariella didn’t just coordinate our vow renewal. She planned it from the ground up, picking every single vendor and executing the day completely. She took Summer’s vision and brought it to life with care, intention, and deep respect for what this moment meant to us. Every detail reflected the image Summer and I had hoped for, and Mariella carried that responsibility with such grace. She led with compassion and patience, making the process feel calm and supported rather than overwhelming. There was never pressure, never rushing, and never an expectation for us to pretend things were easy. Because of Wish Upon a Wedding and Mariella’s selfless generosity, Summer and I were able to stand together, renew our vows, and experience joy without guilt in the middle of a very heavy season. Mariella and Rachael made this the best day of our lives. We will always be grateful, not just for a beautiful day, but for a memory we will carry for the rest of our lives. We could never thank her enough!

This venue is beyond gorgeous! And the staff / wedding day management were absolutely amazing and so patient. Cameron and Ana were so great and I’m so thankful for them helping out for our big day ! It was supposed to rain so last minute they had to push evening inside and it ended up being everything I hoped for. I would highly recommend anyone to get married at this venue ( or any of their venues ) and to make sure you get the wedding day management. The bridal bubble was not popped at all and I was as stress free as an already Anxious bride could get.

Lorraine & Staff When I found The Garden Ballroom, I knew it was the venue for us. Both my new husband & I work a lot of hours, and didn’t have much time during the week to plan our wedding. We used their all inclusive package, it made planning a breeze. We found that Lorraine was very accommodating to us, as we had a few hiccups since we were planning from afar. We drove for two hours to do the important meetings in person, and a few on the phone. Day of the wedding, it was easy to kick back and trust the Garden Ballroom had it under control. If there was ever a problem, I had no idea. All my guests loved the venue and had wonderful things to say. We stayed at the Staybridge Suites around the corner, and it made it so easy! I cannot say enough nice things about both Lorraine, Alfredo, and the staff at The Garden Ballroom. Everyone we worked with was so kind and wonderful to speak with. My guests spoke highly of the venue and staff as well. The venue itself was beautiful and charming. There are so many options for decorations, Lorraine will be able to capture your vision. I scrolled through their Instagram, and sent them DM's when I liked something in particular. Be sure to follow them and watch their stories & posts if you book! You won't be disappointed booking at this venue. While the building itself doesn't have its own parking lot, there is ample parking nearby. None of my guests had a problem. Catering The Catering was good! We selected for the Italian Menu, as we knew it would be a crowd pleaser. During the tasting we provided some feedback, and it was resolved. Catering was also able to accommodate our vegetarian guests by making sure the meatballs were on the side; which was a big deal to us. I know not all catering companies will do alterations, so it was nice to have it. We also had a gluten free guest, and I was happy to hear that I could order her a special plate. She gave it a 10/10 too! The food was delicious and I was hearing compliments from everyone. DJ For our DJ, we had Carlos. We were not sure if any of our guests were going to get on the dance floor. So we told him to go with the flow. We also bought some LED foam light sticks. Carlos did a fantastic job! We had people up on the dance floor the whole time. My guests loved the music selection. Being able to share songs from a Spotify playlist made sending our song selections so easy.

We had the most magical elopement in the hills of Tennessee, at a local bird sanctuary, and it wouldn't have been the same without our incredible photographer, Mary! From the very first email, her communication was absolutely excellent. She was prompt, clear, and always happy to answer our (many!) questions. Planning an elopement or wedding can be stressful, but she made the process so smooth and easy. Beyond her amazing communication, her talent behind the camera is simply breathtaking. She perfectly captured the intimate and natural feel of our ceremony. The photos are stunning – the light, the composition, the way she captured the emotion of the day… everything was just perfect. Looking at them, we’re instantly transported back to that special moment. She has a true gift for capturing not just images, but the feeling and atmosphere of a place and time. She was also so flexible and adaptable on the day itself. The bird sanctuary provided a stunning backdrop, but also presented some unique challenges (like navigating uneven terrain and climbing a mountain while she had a broken foot!!!). She handled everything with grace and professionalism, and her positive energy was contagious. It felt like having a friend there with us, celebrating our special day. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only incredibly talented but also a joy to work with, look no further. We wholeheartedly recommend her for any wedding or elopement, especially if you're looking for someone who can capture the beauty of nature and the intimacy of your special moment. We will cherish these photos forever!

Thank you so much Gary and Graingertainment for being so easy to work with and making our day run so smoothly (and we had a blast!).

"I'm a witness of Life in its best moments" Hi, I'm Nacho! A professional Photographer seeking beauty and real life moments, I help nervous & shy couples relax and enjoy their day. First, I am a kind person. Then, a skilled seeker of unforgettable memories. I am the one who appreciates the smallest details. I am the witness of life in its best versions and the custodian of the fact that everything was real. This is me, Nacho! The fortunate stranger who today has the pleasure of saying that he captures love where others only see a simple wedding.

Hands down the best wedding decision we made was hiring Nacho - and my husband says it all the time! Nacho is incredibly talented at getting the perfect shots but his service is so much more than his photography. He seamlessly fits whatever role is needed in the moment - handling stressful family situations, helping navigate busy timelines, keeping things moving and bringing a genuine “good energy” to the day. He showed up as our photographer but ended the day as everyone’s favorite person. My 4 year old niece still asks about him every day! He leaves a lasting impression and his photos truly capture every moment and emotion that we all want to remember from our wedding days. (Side note: he is very talented at understanding lighting and I’m blown away at how well he captured the natural sunlight during golden hour.) I am beyond thankful that we hired Nacho and highly recommend him for any event or wedding. Extra: Our photography package included an engagement shoot. However, on the day of the shoot a hurricane came through Florida and we had to cancel so Nacho offered us a photo book after the wedding. And let me tell you, this photo book isn’t just any photo book. The quality is unlike anything I have seen. It truly is an heirloom-quality memory book with thick, archival cardstock pages. I highly encourage you to add on Nacho’s photo books if you can!

Wellman & Co Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the moment we first spoke with them, Rebecca and her team were prompt, helpful, and incredibly knowledgeable, guiding us through every step of the process. On the day of the wedding, they were professional, efficient, and produced excellent results. Rebecca and her team kept us on schedule, were encouraging when my nerves started to show, and even helped my not-so-photogenic husband feel comfortable during the photos. The final photos are absolutely stunning - the dreamiest shots that we will proudly display in our home for years to come. Wellman & Co gave us the wedding photography experience we had dreamed of having, and I would recommend them to any couple looking for a talented, kind, and friendly photography team.
