Anita and her team at A Marie Events & Design were an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From our first meeting, we were impressed by Anita's enthusiasm, creativity, and attention to detail. Communication was consistently great - Anita responded to emails and texts very quickly, keeping us totally looped in on all planning details. On the big day itself, Anita went above and beyond to make sure everything flowed smoothly and looked beautiful. She surprised us with some gorgeous additional floral arrangements and decor touches that perfectly suited our vision. Her expertise in not only coordination but also design, florals, and even officiating (!) enabled her to provide us with a truly custom, seamless one-stop wedding planning experience. I cannot recommend A Marie highly enough for any couple wanting a talented pro who will make your wedding vision come to life!

We had a two-day Indian wedding weekend with four events: Sangeet, Haldi, ceremony, and reception, and honestly, we don’t know how we would have done it without Annie and Oscar. They kept everything moving on time without it ever feeling rushed, which if you know how Indian weddings go, is truly an art form. Every event flowed into the next and we never once had to worry about what was happening behind the scenes. What really got us though was how much they genuinely cared. They checked in on us personally throughout the whole weekend, not just logistically, but as people. And our family noticed too. Everyone felt looked after, which meant the world to us. You could tell they understood the cultural weight of each moment and treated it with real respect. Annie and Oscar didn’t just coordinate our wedding, they made sure we actually got to enjoy it.

Having Nicole and Hillary do the hair and makeup for my wedding was a game changer. They were so friendly and personable. They did hair and makeup for 6 adults and 1 child quickly. The heat and humidity in S FL in September is brutal, but my hair lasted literally until I washed it the next day. My makeup lasted all night until I took it off. The same goes for the other ladies. I was so afraid of frizzy hair and messy makeup with the heat and sweat but these ladies are apparently magicians. Thank you both!!!

Oh... hello. You made it. That's nice. This won't take long, if you poke around a bit you'll probably find what you're looking for. There are some photos, some words... and hopefully they help you decide if I'm the right person to document your wedding. I like to photograph moments that happen naturally, without too much fuss. If you're into that-if you're ok with a little wind in your hair, or a cake that leans slightly to the left-then maybe we'd get along just fine.

Loy was such a great photographer to work with. Not only does he bring a super relaxed and chill vibe to the party, he’s a seasoned professional who snaps stellar photos! We loved his style of photography & looking back at the photos, I couldn’t imagine having gone with another photographer. He really captured the vibe of our day. He gave us guidance when we needed it (mainly things like ‘relax’ & ‘be in the moment’ which was so great to hear). We can’t say enough great things about him, thanks Loy!

We worked with Keith to plan our February wedding at The Palms in Miami, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better partner. He made the whole process feel easy and fun, and he really understood us from the start. He came up with ideas that were so perfectly “us” — like the Bravo-style confessional video booth and the coconuts with our names on them. Those ended up being some of the biggest hits of the night. Since we were planning everything from across the country, having someone we could fully trust meant everything. He handled all the vendor negotiations, and every single vendor he brought in was reliable, on time, and clearly loved working with him. On the actual day, Keith was unbelievably organized. Everything ran smoothly, the flowers were beautiful, and we never had a moment of stress. We’re so grateful we got to work with him.

It was a pleasure working with Neph. Not only did she help set the tone for our wedding day, but she helped set the tone for the beginning of our marriage. She worked with us to learn about what we wanted from the ceremony and took that information to officiate what was a beautiful and moving ceremony. We wanted an officiant who could seamlessly integrate both Haitian Creole and English in the ceremony, and Neph did that flawlessly. My husband and I couldn’t stop talking about how special our ceremony was and we had many guests compliment it as well. We strongly recommend Neph, you will not regret working with her!

Dan was prompt and through in all communication. He was a huge asset as I planned my first large party. He was able to offer suggestions along the way that helped us as we planned - even in regards to his knowledge having been at the venue before and working with other vendors. Dan was patient through a lot of back and forth admittedly as a lot of people helping plan had opinions and input, funneled through me to him so that we could best prepare for the party. He took care of the playlist and left it up to us how much input we want to have versus sample playlists he already curated. He took requests from guests as well. He assisted with event flow and Emceeing (it was helpful that he helped me come up with a "run of the show" timeline for the event). Dan helped us make this event a huge success, and I hope to work with him again soon!

Light Sky Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
Fort Lauderdale, FL
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500

So here’s the thing, we’re not just here to take pretty pictures. We’re here to document the way it felt. The big stuff, the little stuff, the blink and you miss it kind of stuff. Based in sunny (and sometimes very rainy) South Florida, but always chasing stories wherever they take us. We don’t do stiff poses or fake smiles. We don’t yell “say cheese.” We watch. We wait. We get the shot while you’re living the moment. Our style is a little moody, a little wild, and deeply human, like love itself. If you’re into that, we’re probably into you too.

From the moment we met Erika and Loy for our engagement shoot, we knew we had found something special. They made two self-proclaimed awkward people feel totally at ease in front of the camera. It didn’t feel like posing—it felt like laughing, dancing, and being fully ourselves, all while they worked their magic. The photos captured not just how we looked, but who we are. We walked away from that session with more than beautiful images—we walked away with memories. Fast forward to our wedding day, and they absolutely blew us away. Our friends and family keep raving about the photos: “absolutely stunning,” “so artsy,” “journalistic,” “soulful,” and “hilarious and beautiful at the same time.” The photos brought the emotion of the day flooding back—joy, intimacy, hilarity, and everything in between. Every little detail, every fleeting look, every big, beautiful moment—it’s all there. They somehow captured the energy of the day, not just the visuals. We’ve gone through the gallery more times than we can count, and each time we see something new to love. From my dad’s emotional first look to the spontaneous dance floor chaos to those quiet moments between us in Adirondack chairs—it’s all so genuine and full of heart. Working with Erika and Loy wasn’t just hiring photographers—it was inviting two incredibly talented, kind, and charismatic humans into some of the most important moments of our lives. We can’t imagine having had anyone else there with us. If you’re considering them—do it. Truly, 10 out of 10.

My name is Bob Lyons and I’m known all over South Florida as THE wedding expert. I’ve been playing music professionally for 40 years and have performed at ‘thousands’ of beach weddings. Please browse from over 100 videos of me playing at weddings ceremonies and cocktail parties. You will see and hear for yourself exactly how professional my presentation is, and you will be in direct contact with me, your wedding musician.

We hired Bob Lyons as our steel drum player and wedding DJ for our May 2025 wedding in Key Largo, and he was absolutely fantastic! His steel drum performance before the ceremony and during our cocktail hour instantly set the perfect island vibe for our guests—it felt like the Keys came alive through his music. When dinner began, Bob seamlessly transitioned into DJ mode, providing the perfect background music to set the tone. He then MC’d our special introductions and first dances with professionalism and great energy. Once the dance floor opened, it stayed packed all night thanks to his DJ skills, fun atmosphere, and mood lighting that really brought the party to life. Bob is incredibly talented, versatile, and easy to work with. If you’re getting married in the Keys—or planning any special event—I highly recommend hiring him. Thank you for everything, Bob, for making our wedding soundtrack absolutely unforgettable!

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked Tiny House Photo for our engagement session and wedding and I cannot recommend Stephanie enough for your special event. Stephanie’s photography is absolutely gorgeous, heartfelt, elegant, humorous, raw, silly, artful, and fabulous. My husband I were completely thrilled with all of our photos. Stephanie documented our wedding day in the most heartfelt way, capturing the essence of every moment. Looking through the photos brought us back to every moment, they enamored us as much as they made us laugh and say things like, “Of course this family member had 3 outfit changes.” Our wedding day was perfect not because everything was seamless and smooth, but because it was exactly what we wanted it to be, and Stephanie helped us both actualize that by giving folks directions when needed and by documenting it so truthfully to help us remember all the joys, laughter, tears, and mild annoyances of the day! What we loved about Stephanie’s photography from the start was its honesty and deep feeling. Her photography spoke to us in a way that was much deeper than getting some fancy or trendy shots of our wedding. We wanted to remember it all – each raw moment that paints the whole picture, each raw moment that has its own value even if it’s unknown at the time. We wanted someone who knew how to connect with all of the deep complexities of existing, that fortunately/unfortunately(?) won’t be put on pause during your wedding day! Stephanie has the gift to create a gorgeous documentary of a special day because she has the beautiful ability to tap into the deeper meaning of both the small and big moments. Her empathy and compassion were felt by all, which was evident in the comfort everyone felt around her. If you’re camera shy, Stephanie is amazing to work with, she helps you feel so comfortable and eventually you forget you’re even being photographed. Stephanie’s boundaries and fierce protectiveness kept things in line, which we so greatly appreciated. She also helped us develop our day of timeline and portrait list. She is a literal wedding guardian angel. Stephanie has such a special gift, and we’re so grateful that she shared it with us. We HIGHLY recommend that you book her for all of your events, especially if you are also a sensitive, deeply feeling, neuro-spicy (as she says!) person. We 100/10 recommend Stephanie for her kindness, professionalism, expertise and sense of humor. I’m already thinking of future photo shoots we can do with her… :)

It’s our dream brought to life: a space where art, nature, and connection come together, spreading joy (and a whole lot of blooms) throughout Fort Lauderdale and beyond.

As a wedding planner, I’ve worked with countless vendors, but Bloomz is truly in a league of their own. Their florals are consistently breathtaking—fresh, vibrant, and always possessing that unique, artistic look that sets an event apart. They have a distinct aesthetic that manages to feel both high-end and deeply personal. While they are a dream for weddings, I’ve also seen them knock it out of the park for corporate events and special celebrations of all kinds; they truly do it all. Beyond the incredible talent, Carla is a total powerhouse and quite literally the sweetest person I’ve ever worked with. Her energy is absolutely contagious; she brings a level of passion and joy to the planning process that makes every site visit and setup a total blast. It’s rare to find someone who is as technically skilled as they are wonderful to be around. If you want a florist who is a dream to collaborate with and will leave your guests in awe, I cannot recommend Carla and the Bloomz team enough!
