Merkels Floral Studio 
Rating: 5.0 (23 reviews)
  • Florist
  • Starts at $10,000
  • Serves Grand River, OH

Founded in 1940, when we say we have decades of experience, we really mean it. Since then our love for flowers and our team has only grown. Day to day you can catch us designing floral arrangements and delivering them by the truck full. We source locally whenever possible (of course). We especially love weddings and just adore our brides. Aside from that, we are probably spending any other spare time cheering on fellow entrepreneurs and our favorite vendors of this industry. We love to pour back into our city by supporting local events, schools, and the animal shelter. And we could go on of course, but there is a word limit :)

When I first got engaged I knew immediately that I wanted Kristin and her team at Merkels to be our florist. Kristin's attention to detail, willingness to try anything, and overall easy-going personality made the entire planning process with her so smooth. When we sat down to discuss the vision I had for my wedding I told her I was thinking blues, purples, whites, and I wanted the entire place to give off a coastal Italian vibe - which I was positive made no sense, but Kristin was the biggest yes-woman. She immediately understood what I wanted and was so helpful when sitting down to discuss what I was thinking for the wedding. On top of this, she was incredibly conscious of our budget and worked with me to make sure I got everything I wanted within my price range! Another thing I never got to compliment on was her memory & attention to details; I had asked for Dahlias and Peonies in my bouquet if possible - knowing it was probably not going to happen as they weren't in season ... BUT SHE GOT THEM which I did not expect at all. From our altar and signage, to the centerpieces and bouquets, Kristin and her team exceeded my expectations by 1000%. I would not change a single thing. Kristin, we love you so much, and cannot thank you enough!

Tyson was clearly the right pick for us from the moment we interviewed him. An undeniable professional talking about his work. He was modest but still reassuring. His pre-event form was helpful, and he took the time to go over it with us clearly and thoroughly before our big day. He gave advice but gently, without pressuring us away from our instincts about what our people would respond to. Day of, he came technologically prepared. Setup was great. His work on the mic was sparse—but perfect. And his song selections were just spot-frigging-on. A dozen people at our wedding have asked us about him. We love Tyson. Thank you forever!!!

Follow the Sun was absolutely incredible! They were everything we could have hoped for and more on our big day. They were so helpful every step of the way and were excellent at communicating. They performed our ceremony and cocktail hour as well and were absolutely fantastic. It’s been over 6 months since our wedding and people still say that they were the best band they’ve ever seen at a wedding and we couldn’t agree more! We are huge fans now and have seen them perform other places and they are amazing all around! We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a band. They made our day perfect and will do the same for you!!!

We’re Sandra and Nichole – two Gemini sisters ready to document your love story. Our vibe is romantic, modern, and timeless. We're a perfect blend of editorial and documentary. We bring your vision to life on both digital and film.

Awarded Best of Zola
It took me months to come up with the words to describe our experience with the Gemini girls because perfection just didn't seem like enough. From day one these ladies were not only easy to communicate with, but even better, they were so much freaking fun. We never had an encounter that wasn't filled with laughter and genuine friendship. And while they got down to business when they arrived on the day of the wedding, they were still full of energy that every single one of us fed off of. When things started to veer off schedule, they always got things back to running smoothly. And when I panicked because I didn't have my vows for my first look, Nichole calmly reminded me that I was going to see my dad first and didn't need my vows yet (oops, lol). As if having them around on our perfect day wasn't enough itself, they are also incredibly talented, have an amazing eye and provided us with the most stunning pictures that we will cherish forever. If you want top tier photos of your wedding day while working with a team that is fun and down to earth but will work their butts off for you.. these are your girls. Sandra, Nicole and Amanda.. we love you and can't thank you enough.

When researching venues to have our wedding we kept coming back to this one and got married here in October. We loved the outdoor ceremony space, which was absolutely stunning with all of the fall colors. We loved the reception space for its spaciousness and what we could do with it, it was the perfect space for a fun filled reception. From the beginning everyone we worked with was very helpful and always thorough when answering any questions we had throughout the planning process.

I can’t say enough about how amazing our experience was at Kingsville Lodge. From the very first tour, we felt instantly welcomed and cared for. Sharyn treated us like family, always quick to answer questions and calm our nerves, and on the actual wedding day they made everything flow so smoothly that we were able to just be present and soak in the joy.

Livia was an absolute DREAM to work with. She was very tentative to our vision, and the entire process from beginning to finish was amazing. The team at Orchard Hills made our vision come to life and everything was so intimate and cozy! Livia was by my side from day one and even played violin for the ceremony. The ceremony was supposed to be outside and it called for rain (and boy did it rain lol!) Livia set up the outside just incase there was a chance it could've been outside. To me that was her going above and beyond. The whole day was a dream come true. If you book your wedding or event here you will not regret it!

For as long as I can remember I have had a passion for creating in any capacity. It wasn't until I picked up a camera that I found out what my favorite type of creating was. Being creative is what I do, simple. I am from Northeast OH. My favorite thing to capture would have to be a toss up between sports and weddings. I love to workout and think fitness is important. But most importantly, God is the head of my life and I wouldn't be where I am OR where I'm headed without him.

Hello! I'm Danny and I've wanted to be a filmmaker since I was seven years old. Wes Craven's "Scream" was the catalyst for having a camera in my hands. I have a need to tell stories that resonate with people and make them feel something. ​ I also happen to be a HUGE sap. I love filming weddings because I genuinely love seeing people at their absolute happiest. The opportunity to turn that happiness into art that couple's can look back on is so gratifying.

If I could reccomend Fullem Films to every single bride and grooms to be, I would. Going through the process of picking vendors we wanted a photographer and videographer that really valued the art and creativity aspect of their work, and also made their work feel like "us". Fullem Films did this, and went above and beyond. Not only did we get a sneak peek video the DAY AFTER our wedding, but the actual highlight feel video takes me right back to our special day: capturing the moments that stick out in my memory. 10/10 work, and if I could give him 10 stars -- I would.

I cannot begin to describe how happy we are that we booked Basil Place for our wedding. I planned our Cleveland wedding from out-of-state, and Michelle from the get-go was so flexible in setting up tours for my family and fiancé when we got into town. First, I'll speak about the venue itself: it is absolutely the most beautiful place I've ever seen. The whole farm is surrounded by beautiful nature, trees, and ponds, and rolling pastures. We were able to have a beautiful outdoor ceremony, get ready in the carriage house, and use the manor house for pictures, hanging out, and pre-wedding snacks. Our reception was in the barn, which is so gorgeous and opens up onto a patio with views of rolling fields and reflecting ponds (which are stocked with bass if you feel like fishing like some of our guests did!) There was so much space for our reception we were able to set up cornhole and spikeball outside the barn which made for such a fun evening. Our guest loved taking pictures all around the property. I cannot say enough good things about how perfect this venue was for our wedding! I also have to mention how absolutely wonderful and above and beyond Michelle and her staff were throughout every step of the wedding process. Michelle truly feels like family to us. She made the process so easy and was so accommodating to all of our requests. She checked on us so many times leading up to and the day of the wedding- we truly felt so taken care of It is so apparent that this is not just a business to her, but truly her passion. Their preferred caterer, A Taste Of Excellence, was hands-down the best experience with a caterer we've ever had. Mikaela was so kind and flexible, and the food was absolutely to die for we were so impressed with them that we had them cater our welcome dinner as well. They do so many weddings at basil place that they are very familiar with set up and where to go, which makes for that much smoother of a day. All the catering staff were so kind and friendly and added to the positive atmosphere. In summary, if we could go back in time, we would choose Basil Place 100 times over!!

I have been lucky enough to have Emily do my makeup for multiple weddings the past few years. Compared to any other makeup I have ever had done, Emily’s work is by far the best. I gave her direction that I would like a natural/pretty look that still made me feel like myself and she did exactly that. I wish she could do my makeup everyday! She is also very calming and pleasant to be around and made it a great experience. I highly recommend her to everyone.

She was incredibly hard-working, helpful, and creative, truly going above and beyond as a perfectionist to ensure my bridal hair was flawless. I had gone through two disappointing trials with my initial stylist, but then I found Hollie and she was able to get me scheduled quickly and ended up being my saving grace when it came to my wedding day look. Hollie's skilled hands created the perfect bridal hairstyle, and I was so grateful to have her expertise on my special day. Thank you, Hollie!

I've known I wanted to be a photographer since middle school. Then I fell in love with love and still get emotional at each wedding I photograph. I'm an extroverted introvert that loves music, food and talking about random facts.

From the moment we first spoke with Paige, we knew we had found the perfect wedding photographer. Quite literally, she was the very first wedding vendor of any sort that we met! Her communication style was open, accommodating, and amazing. The quality of Paige's work is simply beautiful, and her services were incredibly adaptable to us and worked within our budget without any stress. On our wedding day, Paige felt like one of the family and did an amazing job capturing all of our best moments, from the ceremony to the reception. Her creative ideas for photos of my husband and I doing what we love were spot on, and the final images are truly breathtaking. From our engagement session to the very last moment of our wedding, Paige was the perfect photographer to document our special day.

Hello! My name is Justine and I'm a professional makeup artist servicing Northeast Ohio. I specialize in bridal beauty but also work fashion shows, photography shoots, and provide 1:1 and group makeup lessons. Makeup artistry is a passion of mine that I've had since I was a child. Back then, makeup was just for fun. Now, it is my way of helping women find their inner and outer beauty. I believe that makeup doesn't have to hide your features. It should instead, be used to help you fall in love with the parts of yourself that you forgot existed. I'm here to make you feel your absolute best on your wedding day and each day forward!

I truly loved every moment working with Justine! She replied almost instantly to my inquiry, was very flexible in setting up our trial run, and we got along instantly! I had absolutely no idea what kind of look I wanted for my wedding, so I was very impressed that she picked up on "my vibe" immediately and created a gorgeous glam look right off the bat. We set up a second trial run to try a more demure, natural look to give me options and make sure I was 100% satisfied. Justine was EXTREMELY open to working with me to tweak this or that, and we essentially combined the two trail looks for the day-of and I am so glad we did! On the morning of the wedding, I was a tinsy bit frantic, but once I sat in the chair, she made me feel so calm and relaxed--it truly was the exact experience I hoped for. The final look made me feel both glamorous and ethereal at our winter elopement. Justine even gave me a small touch up kit just in case, but everything lasted so long, I didn't even need it. I look forward to working with her in the future when I have another event to go too.

Amazing services!!! Alyssa and her team were amazing! They made sure my day went off without a hitch! She kept me up to speed on everything we still needed and made sure I had all my questions answered. The food was amazing and my guests cannot stop talking about how delicious everything was. The view was amazing and everything was kept so clean and organized. They have weddings down to a science at this point. Could not have asked for a better venue, caterer or coordinator.

Hey there! We're Colleen and Amanda of Wild Embers Photography (formerly Rustic Light Photography). We are committed to ensuring you have the best experience ever that reflects your raw, unique, and wild love. We want to capture the wholly and unique YOU. We're your gals if you're into candid moments, raw emotion, and embracing spontaneity.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Wild Embers for both our engagement and wedding photos. Colleen and Amanda are not only incredibly talented photographers, but also just genuinely cool, kind people who made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera — no small feat for two people who don’t love being the center of attention! Their artistic eye and attention to detail are phenomenal. The editing is gorgeous — a thoughtful blend of timeless black-and-whites and bold, vibrant color palettes. Our fall engagement session and colorful wedding each had very different vibes, and they nailed both. The photos pop in the best possible way, and honestly… we didn’t think we could look this good! We’re based in Columbus and paid a bit extra to bring them in (hotel and travel), but even with that, the cost was still better than many other vendors we talked to — and absolutely worth every penny. They also made sure to capture the specific shots we asked for, which we really appreciated. We can't recommend Wild Embers enough. We'll definitely be reaching out again for any future milestone moments — anniversaries, maybe even family shoots down the line. Just a fantastic experience all around.
