Ashlyn was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. Her communication style is warm and responsive - she was always quick to answer any questions we had leading up to the big day and helped put us at ease. The quality of Ashlyn's work is just beautiful. She has an eye for capturing emotional, passionate moments and every photo has a peaceful, calming feel to it. On the wedding day itself, Ashlyn posed us perfectly, calmed our nerves when things got hectic, and was by our side for every important moment.

How Sweet It Is Cakes

  • Cakes & desserts
  • Serves Carlton, MN

I graduated from UW-Milwaukee with a Bachelor's degree in Printmaking. After graduation I moved to the Duluth area and after a few months was hired on by the previous owner of How Sweet It Is, Eileen Brown. I worked for her for a year and half and then took over the business as it's new owner in 2019. Little had I known when I first started the passion I would find for the work. Now at 26 I can't imagine having another career. I love the creativity I get to use from the starting process of baking to completing the cake with design. I get to spend my days utilizing my degree in ways I didn't imagine and enhancing my passion cake by cake.

My wife and I are extremely happy Lila baked our wedding cake for us! She did all the artistry/ piping on the cake as well as arranging the flowers we brought with us from our florist when we picked up the cake. It looked beautiful and tasted incredible! Thank you for your help making our wedding special!

We arranged our son and daughter in law's rehearsal dinner at Blackwoods and I cannot say enough about what a positive experience it was. The room was spacious (we had close to 51 people) and the staff was kind, professional and available to help with anything we needed. We had a buffet style dinner and our guests commented on the prime rib, saying it was "the best they ever had." Blackwoods staff made the start of our wedding weekend such an enjoyable experience. They easily accommodated us with our "slide show" presentation of the bride and groom and our musical guest which we brought in for dinner music.

I am a musician (I have some stuff on Spotify LOL), I enjoy a nice cup of coffee and I love making videos!! For a typical wedding day, I offer one standard package that spans 9 hours of the day, which usually covers the whole day's events. My main focus throughout the day is getting shots for the highlights video (check out some examples of that). I also spend a great deal of time and care capturing the bigger moments of the day, such as the ceremony, the speeches, the first dances, etc. So my couples have tons of content to watch back. Check out my website for more details and let me know what questions you have :D

Noah, When I booked with you you not once asked for a price you truly deserve to receive. You worked beyond what we could expect. You captured us and our day. You put a focus on us and what our love is. You are flexible to work with. You are reasonable in your expectations and you are so incredibly humble. You continually work to better yourself in your abilities to film what is in front of you. I have no clue how you do it with the crazy schedule you have. Always professional yet a friend. Thank you for making our day perfect for years to come.

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers

  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Carlton, MN

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you really want to save money on florals, then go with Flower Moxie! Just a heads up, IT IS A LOT OF WORK, but they give you very clear email instructions of what to expect and there are MANY resources they provide through articles, videos, etc. I was mistaken in thinking that all I would have to do is arrange flowers in vases. You are actually cutting, cleaning and processing everything. We refused to spend money on flowers through a florist, but with Flower Moxie, we were able to incorporate some florals for a very reasonable price!

I love capturing your memories on such an important day and turning that footage into a beautiful video to rewatch the day over and over again. To keep things simple, I offer everything in one simple affordable package. I'm there all day long and I wanna be there to capture every single moment. You'll have your videos in three weeks or less.

Awarded Best of Zola
Britt is a one man show and has all the equipment and full capability to do so. We weren't going to have a videographer due to budget and a few other reasons but decided last minute we didn't want to regret not doing it and Britt was up for the last-minute job! He was great at communicating throughout beginning stages, reliable, and took away some stress knowing he was fully capable for the job. There may or may not be many videographers out there. I guess I really don't know. But what I do know is Britt Nelson drove several hours, and across state lines, through torrential rain fall, hydroplaned on the highway to the point of completing 2 and a half full rotations in his vehicle, and still managed to make it to our wedding on time. He then flew his drone against all recommendations in aggressive winds to get us the perfect shots of our ceremony and reception venues. Now the drone took some minor damage in the crash, but the fantastic footage he got of our entire wedding day certainly did not. He managed to score all the great angles at all the perfect times and did so with such ninja skill that had we not received the footage we would have never known he was even there (no offense Britt). All we can say is regardless of whether or not there are tons of videographers out there, Britt Nelson is one of the best!

Devyn was our photographer for our engagement photos in February 2022 and for our wedding in October 2022. We had the absolute best experience with her during both sessions. I was so overwhelmed when searching for a photographer, I didn’t know much about it and there are so many options out there. The first thing that caught our eye was her editing style. The coloring wasn't washed out or super saturated like other photographers editing I'd seen. Her editing was simple, yet captivating. We also noticed her creativity with the variety of poses and candid shots in her online portfolio. Not only is she fantastic at what she does, she so unbelievably kind and fun to work with! She makes you feel at ease behind the camera and that was so important to us! We would highly recommend Devyn to be your photographer for any special occasion!

HEY! I'M ASHLEY! Aka, Your Professional third wheel! I am so happy you dropped by! I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts! (But I mean who isnt! I just cant help it!) FUN FACT: I speak switzerdütsch, aka a German slang. My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

Ashley Cynthia Photography provided excellent service for our wedding photography needs. Ashley's communication throughout the planning process was fast, caring and thoughtful - she truly wanted to understand our vision and preferences. On the big day, Ashley traveled from Arizona to capture our Colorado wedding. She helped immensely with organizing the timeline and coordinating with other vendors. Most importantly, the quality of Ashley's work is simply stunning. Her photographic style resulted in elegant, unique and professional photos that we will treasure forever. She perfectly captured the joy and love of our special day. We couldn't recommend Ashley highly enough for wedding photography services. She had us laughing and feeling more like a lifelong friend more than a photographer

Hello! I'm Erica and I am based in Minnesota but travel all over! I love fun adventures, traveling to new places, meeting people and learning about their unique experiences - a big part of why I love photography!

I can’t recommend Erica enough for wedding/engagement photography! My husband and I were both very nervous for engagement and wedding pictures as we are both not very comfortable in front of the camera. My husband absolutely hates getting his picture taken and was dreading all picture aspects surrounding our wedding. However, Erica listened to our fears/stress in regards to getting our pictures taken and made sure the pictures went smoothly. She has a way of making you feel comfortable even when doing something that typically makes you very uncomfortable. She has such a fun upbeat personality and showed true excitement for what she does and for us. Her photography style involves a lot of movement and capturing real/natural moments which allowed us to get so many amazing pictures that truly felt like us. I genuinely enjoyed the picture taking process with Erica and never would have imagined that would be the case. As for my husband…in all honesty I can’t say he enjoyed the process of taking pictures but he didn’t hate it -which truly is an achievement (props to you Erica). She made sure he was comfortable but gave him just the right amount of push and encouragement that he needed. Thank you for capturing our special day!

When I'm not at a wedding, you can find me in the flower shop or doing some *light* retail therapy. I recently graduated from KSU with a B.S. in Hospitality & Event Management. I have had the opportunity to work with some amazing couples & vendors in several states. I even spent time in FL working closely with one of the world's leading entertainment companies bringing hundreds of fairytale weddings & events to life. Now, I'm making magic of my own!

I had the pleasure of working with Brooklyn Rain Brides LLC on several occasions, and Brooklyn consistently impressed me with her top-tier communication, quick responsiveness, and professional yet friendly approach. The quality of her work is amazing - she is well-organized, detail-focused, and excellent at maintaining communication with all vendors. For the styled shoots that I worked with at, Brooklyn expertly handled the setup, controlled all the details, and ensured seamless coordination with everyone involved. I can't wait to collaborate with them again on a real wedding day and see their magic in action once more.

You will get exactly what you ordered - It is very important for us that the video convey the atmosphere of your event as much as possible, therefore we approach the details and musical arrangement with great care - Each project for us is always an individual work. We do not shoot or edit according to a template. - We always have a spare set of equipment - All material we always keep in duplicate.

5 Thousand Frames Films provided us with the best videography service we could have asked for on our wedding day. Their communication style was fantastic - they didn't overwhelm us with too many questions, and instead proposed perfect ideas to capture all the special moments. The quality of their work is unmatched, a solid 100 out of 5! They created an incredible same-day-edit video that was shown at the end of our wedding, and the quality, plot, music, and framing were all flawless. While I was getting ready, the videographer even took it upon himself to shoot all the necessary footage of the background details. I highly recommend 5 Thousand Frames Films - you're guaranteed to have the best experience, as their professionalism and quality of work is simply outstanding.

Tracy & Kyle are fantastic artists and teammates! They made our wedding experience such a fun journey every step of the way and we were blown away by how fantastic all of our photos turned out in both our engagement and wedding day photos. We met with them in-person twice for consultations and felt so comfortable talking with them and sharing our experiences as fellow wedding-industry workers. 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. We also loved their blog posts as a way to share photos with friends and family and we enjoyed browsing other couples' albums as well! As a same-sex mixed race couple, we really appreciated their wide portfolio of diverse couples of LGBTQIA and BIPOC clients.
