Where to start... We had our wedding at Wildwood Vineyard and Events 3/4/23. From the moment we stepped foot on the property, the first handshake with Keisha, I knew this is where we were meant to get married. That first day 6/24/22, my now husband and I, sat down with Keisha and her husband, Phil. We had the entire wedding planned in 4 hours. The food, dj, photography, colors, decorations, the bar. This is not your typical "pick a package" venue. Keisha makes your dream wedding come true around YOUR budget. She does the leg work. You tell her what you want, and she makes it happen. I felt like I was working with family the entire time, as if we've known them forever and this was the first time meeting. Keisha and I talked almost every day after that. The day of the wedding was flawless. Not one thing went wrong. They surprised me with my wedding song, sung live. They were active the entire night. Whatever we needed, they were there. I could not have asked for better. It was a dream come true. The property is beautiful, well kept, and decorated. They have games and gorgeous, caged in fire places. Not only do they do weddings, but they also host events and are open to the public. We are so blessed to have come across this amazing couple. They really do it all, and we are forever thankful for them!!

The venue is absolutely gorgeous and dreamlike!! They help you set up and clean up (clean up is extra). They have so many different locations within the venue to have the ceremony, and nice that they have one option inside just in case of rain. Also have a golf cart to help shuttle people from parking or the bridal party from the dressing domes. I had to call about a few questions and someone picked up immediately. Very professional and worked with us when we had a family emergency and had to postpone the wedding date. Highly recommended!!

What an AMAZING experience it was having Chef Patrick personally cater all our meals for the week of my parents' 50th wedding anniversary. It goes without saying that the food was first class. Everyone had such a hard time deciding which meal and/or exact item was their favorite because they were all so good. But beyond that, Chef Patrick catered more than just food, he catered to our family. He taught a house of 14 children a class on how to make their own sushi rolls. This included our own special needs son, whose intellectual disability made the task exceptionally challenging. He was patient and kind and included everyone. He always had Gluten Free options available for family medical needs and did it all with a smile that made everyone enjoy the atmosphere as much as the amazing food itself. I cannot express how thankful our family is for him. It allowed 3 families of 21 peope to spend every night building relationships rather than stressing about food, prep and cleanup. We are all so thankful for Chef Patrick and could not be happier with him

Gainesville wedding photographer serving North Central and Central Florida. I create natural, true-to-life images that feel timeless and real, focused on moments, emotion, and clean editorial portraits. From intimate courthouse “I do’s” to vibrant South Asian celebrations, I photograph every wedding with calm direction, clear communication, and a smooth, stress-free experience. Expect a curated gallery that lets you relive the day with all the love and energy you felt.

We could not have asked for a better photographer than Shan from Weddings by Photohead. From the very first conversation, he was professional, kind, and genuinely invested in our wedding day. He took the time to understand our vision and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, which was huge for us. On the wedding day, Shan was calm, organized, and so easy to work with. He blended in seamlessly, captured the big emotional moments, and somehow caught all the little candid details we didn’t even realize were happening. Nothing felt forced or rushed, and his guidance during portraits made everything feel natural and fun. When we received our photos, we were absolutely blown away. The images were timeless, emotional, and beautifully edited. Every time we look at them, we feel like we’re reliving the day all over again. Friends and family have not stopped complimenting our photos. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who is talented, reliable, and truly cares about telling your story, we cannot recommend Weddings by Photohead enough. Hiring Shan was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day.

On the day of, the staff went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. The food was incredible - our guests are still raving about it weeks later! The service was impressive, and the bar was great too. The Wooly has such a unique and fun vibe, and the venue, staff, and food are all top-notch. We couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate our special day. Absolutely a 5-star venue that is also budget-friendly. We highly recommend The Wooly to any couple looking for the perfect wedding location!
