Liv is honestly the BEST! She did my wedding day glam up as well as my bridal shower. She made me feel so amazing and beautiful on both occasions. My make up lasted the entire day without having to touch up anything but the lips! I could t have asked for a better MUA! I will be having her as my MUA for any other future occasions. ️

  • Officiant
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $150
  • Serves Manalapan, NJ

Hitched! By Harper is where unforgettable ceremonies meet authentic storytelling. I’m a firefighter-turned-award-winning officiant who crafts one-of-a-kind wedding experiences rooted in joy, meaning, and a touch of humor. Since 2010, I’ve helped couples of all backgrounds feel seen, celebrated, and totally at ease on their big day. Every ceremony is written from scratch to reflect your vibe, your values, and your story—not a template in sight.

My fiancé and I had Kevin officiate our wedding in August of 2025, and it was one of the best wedding decisions we made in the whole process! We were struggling on who we wanted to officiate our non-denominational ceremony, and with one month until our wedding day we found multiple recommendations for Hitched by Harper. The process was so easy, and for not knowing him personally, we had no less than 10 people on our wedding day asking something to the affect of “the officiant was amazing and personable, how did you know each other” and we actually had a friend book him for a wedding shortly after! Kevin was beyond impressive and we would recommend him and his services to anyone! If I could give this more than 5 stars I would.

If you're a bride, you know that things have changed a little bit since the day you got engaged, you started making plans right away and every step it's a roller coaster of emotions that will follow you until your wedding day. Being a bride in the past, I understand the need of being surrounded by professionals that not only provide you with beautiful and organized work but you also treat you as a special person and not just a number.

Awarded Best of Zola
Chrys and her team did an absolutely amazing job on our wedding day — I have never felt more beautiful in my entire life! From the moment I saw myself in the mirror, I knew the day was going to be everything I dreamed of. Every bridesmaid and family member looked stunning too, and it shows in every single photo. The pictures are breathtaking, all thanks to the incredible artistry of Chrys and her team. Chrys ended up staying late and doing a second hair look for me and touch ups while I was doing my pictures, that extra effort meant more than words can say. It’s those little details that turned an already perfect day into something truly unforgettable. If you want a makeup and hair team that is talented, patient, and puts their whole heart into their work, book Chrys. You will not regret it!

My approach is calm, intentional, and heartfelt. I want your photos to feel like you: beautiful, honest, and full of soul.

My fiance booked Madalina for a surprise engagement on the beach, I had no idea she was there until after the moment. I am so greatful she was there to capture such a surreal moment.

Awarded Best of Zola
This is what dreams are made of. When I was a little girl, I had big dreams about what my future wedding would look like. As I got older and realized how much everything costs, I started to think my dream wedding would stay just that—a dream. But one thing never changed: I always wanted to get married in a little white chapel and walk down the aisle to the sound of a violin. Petya made that dream come true. From the moment I first reached out to her, we instantly connected. I knew, without a doubt, that no matter where we ended up getting married, she had to be a part of it. I’d listen to her music on YouTube and just melt. She’s cheerful yet calming, incredibly talented, and truly helped put me at ease throughout the process. The morning of my wedding was stressful, but Petya texted me with encouragement, lifting my spirits and getting me excited for the day ahead. Guests even told me how beautiful the atmosphere was as they waited for my arrival—all because of the ambiance she created through her music. As the church doors opened and I saw my soon-to-be husband standing at the altar, the sound of Petya’s violin made it feel like I was walking into a dream. I couldn’t see anyone else—it was as if her melody was wrapping around just the two of us. It might sound dramatic, but we had a very Christian ceremony, and we asked her to play worship music. It made the moment feel sacred, like God’s presence was truly among us. At the end of the ceremony, I ran up to her and couldn’t help but gush about how incredible she was. She gave us our fairytale moment.

Hi! I’m Shauna — but you can call me Shay. I’m the photographer behind Milestone. What started as a side business in 2015 became my full-time dream in 2022, and I thank God daily that I get to serve amazing couples through my work. I met my husband at 15 and we’ve been together ever since, so love stories have always meant a lot to me. As a wife and mom of two adventurous boys, I know how meaningful life’s biggest milestones are. My goal is to give every couple a relaxed, fun experience and a gallery of memories you’ll treasure for a lifetime.

From the moment we started planning our backyard wedding, Shauna was so much more than just a photographer. She helped us think through the setup, guided us on where everything should go for the best lighting, and truly brought our vision to life in ways we didn’t even know we needed. On the day of, she was a calming, grounding presence. When nerves kicked in, she was right there- steady, supportive, and somehow capturing every moment so naturally and beautifully at the same time. And the photos… I don’t even have the words. They are everything we hoped for and more. She captured not just how it looked, but how it felt. One of my favorite photos is of all six of us hugging- it’s so natural, so full of love, and perfectly captures us as a family. I will treasure these photos forever and will always be grateful for the role Shauna played in our day. If you’re considering booking her, do it!!

We are Mark & Brittany Edman, NJ based wedding team. Mark created “This Insane Idea” with the vision that anything is possible. As your lead shooter, he had a passion for photography his entire life, capturing moments around him in the most authentic ways until one day Brittany told him “go full time”, it was insane. He fell in love with wedding photography and the emotion it brought out for everyone involved. Coming home so happy with unique stories and photos from all over the state, Brittany knew she needed to join him on wedding days. Having a background in hospitality for 20 years Brittany began coordinating the day alongside Mark.

From the very first conversation, we knew we had found the perfect photographers with Mark and his team. Their communication was super responsive, and they were incredibly organized throughout the entire planning process, making it a seamless experience. The engagement shoot and wedding day photos were exactly what we were looking for - their professional, energetic approach captured all the special moments beautifully. They blended in seamlessly during our wedding day, allowing us to just enjoy the experience while they got the shots we'll treasure forever. We couldn't be happier with the stunning photos and how they contributed to making our day so special.

My love for photography was born when I picked up a camera and started shooting street photography as a hobby. This hobby quickly took over my entire life! Thankfully, combined with my editing and retouching skills, I was able to turn my passion into a career. Owning and running Wild Hearts has been the one of my greatest joys! I love truly love capturing your real life moments and emotions. Yes I am organized as hell and type A, but balance that with heavy doses of standing back and just capturing the moment as it’s happening. I feel a real connection with all the wild hearts out there, and would love it if you let me capture yours!

My wife and I booked Wild Hearts for our 2025 wedding. This was the single best decision we made for our wedding (aside from choosing to get married). Kamelia is a fabulous photographer, a fastidious planner, and an encouraging partner for your wedding day. Kamelia is equally comfortable keeping order during wedding chaos and being a bastion of support who will tirelessly and patiently listen to all of your wedding woes. I cannot say enough good things about Kamelia. She made my wife feel supported and sane throughout the wedding process by offering sage, leveled advice and being a constant source of understanding and reassurance. She made me, who is not often comfortable in front of the camera, feel at home in our shoots. Never once when working with Kamelia did photos feel tedious, unwelcome, or unenjoyable; rather, every moment with her was fun, easy, and smooth. As a photographer, Kamelia has a unique skill to capture the beauty of small moments, to represent love and affection and happiness in timeless images. Life becomes art through Kamelia’s camera lens. Truly, her talent is unmatched. But her peerless skill as a photographer is only part of the reason you should hire her. With Kamelia, you get more than a photographer; you get a wedding planner, a sympathetic soul, a wedding day drill sergeant who keeps everything and everyone on track, a genuine advocate for her couples, and a friend. I promise, give Wild Hearts your business. You will be making one of the best decisions you could make for your event or moment. Thank you to Kamelia and Chris for making our wedding day such a serene, easy event and for capturing our love in such a beautiful, elegant fashion. You have given us memories we will cherish forever. We are eternally grateful.
