Noe at Viva La Fiesta did an absolutely incredible job as DJ and MC at our wedding. We had a few meetings with him prior to our special day where he came organized and prepared to discuss all of the important songs and overall vibe that we were going for. Our wedding was a beautiful mix of central Minnesota and South Texas cultures, and we expressed wanting the music to cater to all of our loved ones in attendance. We had cumbia, salsa, country, Chappel Roan, bachata and all of the fun music of today! It truly was perfect. I can’t say enough how grateful we are for Noe and his ability to read a crowd and deliver a great party. No matter what you’re looking for, Noe at Viva La Fiesta is your guy!! Leia and Taylor

Tonya Hjort Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
Monticello, MN
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000

There are so many reasons why I love weddings: I love all of the little details, the way you get to express who you are as a couple, and the excitement of capturing your special day! My job as a photographer is to witness your story. I realize your story is unique to you and your fiancé. Your story doesn't stop at the wedding, it continues to grow and blossom with every change in life. That's why I want to focus on getting photos that will stand the test of time. These photos are bigger than just the wedding day - they will be in hallways of homes, placed in photo books, and be passed down to future generations.

Would give 6 stars if I could - Tonya is truly incredible. Not only did we love her for her attention to detail, willingness to go above and beyond at our engagement shoot & wedding, how she made us feel comfortable, her efficiency (we got to enjoy our wedding and not spend hours taking pictures, but still have every shot we want!) - but our family and friends even commented on how lovely she was! Talent, kindness, thorough, communicative, collaborative with us and our vendors - I cannot recommend Tonya enough! She impressed me from the start when I met with her for our consultation and she had a presentation of the packages, recommendations, and even a sample timeline. Thank you Tonya 3

Keighla, her photos, and her work quality are the BEST! From the start, she is super responsive - the first sign of a quality vendor. Then throughout the planning process, she guided us through our day of timeline and logistics with ease, giving us tips and guidance on all things wedding. We were okay not taking engagement photos until Keighla suggested that we do them in order to get comfortable in front of the camera and meet her before our wedding day. So smart! We loved taking those photos and are so happy we have them forever and it was so much fun getting to know each other. Keighla is your biggest photo hype girl when she’s behind the camera and she makes you feel so comfortable. She will keep your day on track and will be by your side from getting ready to dance floor and everything in between. When we got our photos back, we swooned over them! We still do to this day. She captures the best moments in the most beautiful way. Recommend Keighla’s Fresh Face Photos 100%!

Hi, there! I am Allie, an internationally published fine art photographer. What's unique to my craft is the focus on small details to tell the complete story of your love. From your candid laughs together to the way your grandmother's eyes well with tears when she sees you walk down the aisle - no detail is too small. We’ve had so many sweet couples from around the world trust us - from our own backyard in MN to the Coasts & even Internationally. I've had the honor of being nominated as the Top 3 Photographers in MN & the experience of photographing over 150 weddings. But each feels completely unique & gives me the joy of butterflies

Awarded Best of Zola
First, we were immediately drawn to Allie’s timeless, bright, and airy photography style. From the moment that we spoke with Allie during our phone consultation, we felt very comfortable with her and knew she would be the perfect fit as our wedding photographer! Allie photographed our engagement session in downtown Stillwater, a boudoir session (Allie also designed a keepsake boudoir book that I gave to my husband as his wedding gift), and our wedding day. Throughout all of the sessions, Allie was kind, warm, patient, gave us helpful prompts/poses, and guided us every step of the way! Whenever I had questions regarding photography, Allie was very responsive and provided wonderful customer service. She also helped us to create a detailed photography timeline and shot list for the wedding day. On the wedding day, Allie and her second shooter were very professional, prepared, and helped to keep everyone on track, including the bridal party and our families. After the wedding, we received way more photos than we were expecting in our online gallery, which were beautifully edited with her special touch. Allie exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond in all areas. We’ll cherish our photos for years to come and highly recommend Alexandra Robyn Photo & Design!

The most important memories made on your wedding day are the moments that can never be recreated, and it’s my job to make sure everyone can be fully present in those moments. Seeing the groom’s reaction during the walk down the aisle is the absolute best! While everyone is looking back at the bride, I look forward because that reaction is a once in a lifetime moment.

Sammy was an absolute rockstar! Choosing her as our day-of-coordinator was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From helping us nail down all the details to being the calm, reassuring voice we needed the day of, she was excellent! I wasn't quite sure I would need a day-of-coordinator since I'm very organized and DIY-oriented, but boy am I glad we did. Being able to spend the day relaxed knowing that Sammy had everything taken care of was a godsend. And, on top of it all, she's a joy to be around. I would recommend Sammy to anyone getting married.

The rate at which we received our photos after our engagement shoot and our wedding was perfect! They sent a few samples that showed the quality and attention to detail, and the remaining complete albums were sent within a week! So fast but so much attention to detail and great editing.

I am absolutely obsessed with how my wedding flowers turned out! After just one meeting with Candi she understood my vision and brought it to life better than I even imagined. She was fantastic with communication and was very accommodating with my color specificity. The flowers lasted perfectly, even though it was a hot and humid day. The magnet boutonnieres were the only exception, this may have been because of the flowers being too heavy for that style. She was last minute willing and able to accommodate dropping off personal flowers at a nearby location before setting up the arrangements at the church. Candi is very talented at arranging florals and compiling the most beautiful flower combinations.

Been working weddings at the refuge for over 19 years. Hands down my favorite place to work with. The staff and food are as good as it get's. They will bend over backwords for you to make all your needs met. The place is beautiful like a ski lodge in Aspen with amazing place's for picture's and sunset. I have seen a bride change her mind 4 times before the ceremony on where to do it because of rain. The staff had all the chairs and wiped down and moved in under 13 minutes. Yes we moved 189 guest's 3 times in under 30 minutes because that is what the bride wanted on her day was outside. Sun came out and it rocked, and all we did was cut into 25 minutes of social hour. I could tell you stories for days and not one of them are bad. Joe, Krista and Lisa and the rest of the staff work very hard to make your wedding day everything you dreamed of. LUKE
