Juliette Zyg Picture Studios 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Cato, NY

Hiiiii! I'm Juliette, and I've been wedding photographer and videographer for around seven years. I specialize in nostalgic and cinematic imagery and video, and lead with a documentary approach, mixed with editorial aesthetic (usually for direct flash portraits, which are my favorite). Whether you’re having a wild wedding weekend, a thoughtful woodsy elopement or a grand celebration at an estate, I'm here for it. Upstate New York is my home base, but I love to travel. When I'm not photographing weddings, you can usually find me listening to Taylor Swift, getting coffee with my husband, Teddy, or drawing in my sketchbook.

Awarded Best of Zola
After stalking her work on Instagram, I immediately was drawn towards Juliette's unique aesthetic - timeless, personal, and nostalgic with a solid dose of not-taking-yourself-too-seriously. We were so thrilled to hire Juliette to photograph our rehearsal dinner in Ithaca NY - and WOW, did she deliver! We met once prior to our event to run through specifics of what we were looking for, and she came with very detailed questions (like any posed family/friend photos we wanted, etc). During our event, she was so bright, genuine and easygoing, constantly checking in with myself and my (now) husband - while also being a fly on the wall capturing the little moments that we didn't even see. Our gallery was returned while we were still on our honeymoon the week after, which was the ultimate gift. Some of our favorite wedding photos came from our night before. I wholeheartedly recommend hiring Juliette for your photography needs - she really is a dream to work with!

Hey- I'm Nicole. When I'm not working with the raddest couples I'm typically brewery hopping with my wife, or home spending time with my three dogs. I live for SU basketball, and love just about any other Syracuse sports team (Crunch, Mets - count me in). I have been photographing weddings for over ten years, and in that time have had the opportunity to travel around the world and meet tons of new friends.

I can’t recommend Nicole highly enough! The photos she captured of our reception are amazing- she made our posed photos look natural and found everyone’s good side in the candids on the dance floor. She was so easy to work with and I appreciate how organized and responsive she was through the process.

I pride myself on being able to work with couples of all backgrounds and cultures. I am outgoing, energetic and have a true passion for documenting your day. Each wedding tells a unique story and it is my job to tell your story. I have been photographing weddings for over 6 years . Prior to that I worked weddings as a 2nd photographer and an assistant to several regional photographers. I felt that by working with several different companies I was able to gather experience from several perspectives. I shoot with the Nikon series of cameras and Lens. During the "off season" you can catch me photographing local High school sporting events.

Hi! I'm Courtney -- the founder and lead planner of Crown Coordination. You could say I'm your not-so-average pineapple obsessed, wine loving, adventure seeking chaos coordinator. When I say that I literally get married for a living and absolutely love it -- I mean it!

We connected 4.5 months out from our wedding - after our original venue fell through and we had to find a new one - Courtney showed up eager, confident, excited and supportive. It was important for her to build a friendship first, learn about us then dive into everything that we needed and THEN some. Her experience within the event and wedding planning industry shows immediately - her connections to vendors, advice, ideas and knowledge of how a successful day looks is a huge part of what makes her team so powerful - not to mention the extremely bubbly, funny and positive energy she brings to every conversation and meeting. To top it all off, the morning and afternoon of our wedding day was a straight monsoon - Courtney and her team did not blink, jumped into GO mode and turned our day, venue, timeline and energy around flawlessly. Crown Coordination are the people you want by your side for anything that could unexpectedly pop up! We will always be thankful for their guidance, support and incredible partnership. This is your sign to call Crown Coordination ASAP!

Weddings By Brooke

  • Planner
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $2,950
  • Serves Cato, NY

Your wedding can feel daunting, confusing, and downright overwhelming. But it doesn’t have to be! My passion is to support you in a way that takes the pressure off, so that you can fully enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime day!

Brooke is an absolute gem and I feel so lucky that we were referred to her. I told her early on that I did not expect to personally have any fun on my wedding day, and all because of Brooke, I had without a doubt, the best day of my entire life. What a phenomenal way to kick of our marriage. We went back and forth on getting a planner, but finally decided that having a day-of coordinator would probably alleviate a lot of stress. Brooke went above and beyond what we expected from a day-of, always offering to take on tasks that seemed too overwhelming for us (finding shuttles, hotel blocks). She was responsive and routinely checked in on us formally and informally. Imagine our shock when we learned she was giving us so much attention and professionalism while she was in the middle of planning her OWN wedding just months before our date! If she was stressed by that, she never showed it, and she even offered us some advice based on her own personal experiences. I had never been in a wedding so I was not at all privy to what goes into planning. Brooke was totally on board with shirking some traditions while prioritizing what we valued most (sentimentality, personalization, guest experience). She made suggestions, but never made us feel pressured to do anything. I wanted full control over several aspects of the wedding and she never made me feel like I was not capable or stupid for, say, wanting to do my own flowers. During our meetings, she was organized and efficient and I always felt better after speaking with her. She made an effort to get in contact with all of our vendors and important people so that everyone could be on the same page for the weekend. She had never done a wedding at our venue (the Ithaca Farmers Market) and made an effort to acquaint herself with the space and (very thorough) procedures beforehand. Brooke is not only professional, flexible, and organized, She is also exactly the person you want with you on your wedding day. I have 2 ways of responding to stress – being a goof and being a snappy, rude b**** and Brooke responded to both with total grace and kindness. She gave me the space to crack jokes during the rehearsal, certainly dragging out the process, which made me feel like it was still OUR wedding and not someone else’s idea of a wedding. If something wasn’t going exactly the way I wanted (e.g. my dad forgot something important at the hotel), I would often take out my frustration on Brooke who would receive it, speak kindly to me, and smile (when what I really deserved sometimes was a slap). She has a way of making you feel seen, heard, and safe, which is exactly what you need when everyone’s eyes are on you. And it was not just me, everyone totally adored her and appreciated her presence. What was really important to me, is that to the extent there were any mistakes/miscommunications (inevitable!) Brooke always took accountability and never tried to redirect blame (even if it was not hers to accept). I really respect this in a person and did not find a ton of it in the wedding planning industry otherwise. Overall, Brooke listens, works super hard, treats you like a dear friend, lets you be yourself.

We all start this wild journey one way or another. My way? I was introduced to Ansel Adams’ work in a Photo 1 class in high school. How would the kids say this… his black and whites were giving adventure? What I mean is, they were nice. I had already been hiking the Adirondacks for 15 years at that point, why couldn’t I do it? Why couldn’t I take those photos too? I set out to prove to myself I could. Over the past decade I’ve evolved from landscapes to sports to family portraits to weddings. I continue all of those today. Never forget your roots, right?

There aren’t enough words to describe how excellent our experience was working with Joe, and we couldn’t be happier with the service he provided to us for our engagement and wedding pictures. He made us feel very comfortable and relaxed, all while being so patient with us and our wedding party. He captured our entire wedding day from the moment we started getting ready to the time we left our reception. I had an extensive list of “must have” shots and he was able to capture all of them. The quality of the photos exceeded all of my expectations and I couldn’t recommend him more! He’s an absolute pleasure to work with and you will not be disappointed with his work!

It offers the perfect backdrop for your intimate ceremony, reception, shower, corporate picnic, wedding or other celebratory event, along with an unforgettable experience. ​​ ​Pairing romance and charm with simple luxuries and privacy, the estate will offer a secluded slice of paradise. We look forward to sharing the special spirit of our land with you!

Wolf Oak Acres made our wedding the absolute best it could’ve been! They were very responsive to any questions I had with decor, catering, makeup recommendations, bar service and beyond. When you plan with them, they will dig down deep into what your vision is for your wedding and help suggest how to make those ideas a relating. They even have a Something Borrowed closet which had just SO MUCH leftover decor from previous weddings that people didn’t want and even had their own decor available so because of this, we were able to save so much money on decorations. They had such a large variety available because that’s the worst part of preparing for a wedding. Buying all the decor yourself to use ONCE and then having to struggle on getting rid of it through garage sales and whatnot. Not here you don’t! We gave our coordinator at the venue some ideas and she ran with it and they even set up EVERYTHING for you! When I walked into the venue the day before the wedding, I was not expecting to start crying from how above and beyond the crew went with the decorations. It was absolutely gorgeous and exactly what I had wanted. They work with your caterers and DJ and photographer before, during, and after to make sure everything is going perfectly. They were there for me the entire weekend and the best best bonus they offered was lodging on site. They have 6 cabins and a HUGE absolutely gorgeous house for all your wedding party and guests to stay at for the weekend of the wedding. Plus, they’re close enough to Turning Stone so if need be, you can rent rooms out at any of the hotels there and it’s maybe a 15 drive. I will forever recommend this venue because they have an amazing crew who care about making sure you and your guests all have the best time ever!

Booking with CNY Sound is the #1 best choice you can make for your wedding. Adam is overall an amazing person to work with from start to finish. Adam is down to make anything happen for your vision of the day. He can manage outdoor ceremony logistics, mic’ing up multiple officiants/speakers, cocktail hour music, dance floor selections, and overall vibe control during the whole party. He’s a dynamic host/emcee, as well as crazy talented and creative on the decks for your party. He worked with us to create a playlist (and arguably more important, a do not playlist) that was perfect for us, and our guests were raving about the party for days to come after the wedding. I’m sure there were also a dozen things he did behind the scenes that we have no idea about to make sure everything ran smoothly. Adam was so open and flexible in terms of what we wanted our wedding to be. He has room in the program for all the classic wedding moments you want (and will happily cut any you don’t) and can work in any special local, cultural, or family traditions you can think of. He’ll even tactfully mix in Defying Gravity from Wicked if that’s your thing. Adam was an amazing advocate for our vision of the day and was a huge part of making it happen. THANK YOU ADAM!!!

Hello! My name is Tanya and I am the designer/creator/daydreamer behind all the beautiful floral arrangements. I started working with flowers over 6 years ago and loved every minute of it. I love meeting every new bride, hearing the love story and together planning the floral arrangements for the wedding of their dreams.

Tanya was our wedding florist and we couldn't be more thrilled with the final result!! She worked with us to make sure everything was perfect! From the ceremony arch to the bridesmaids bouquets, everything was unique yet complimented each other so well! My bridal bouquet was my favorite piece of the day, she did such an amazing job with it that I had it preserved so I could enjoy it for years to come!! Tanya cares about each couple and you can see that shine through in her work! We highly recommend her for weddings or other special events in your life!!

The Story Photography

Wedding photography that matters is about the people and the feelings of the wedding day. It's not about the poses that I might imagine or the pretty details that surround the day. My passion is in finding the beauty in the REAL moments of a wedding day and preserving those to not only remind you of that love but to share it with generations to come.

There are no words to describe how incredible Chris is. He was calm, creative, and a pleasure to work with. Truly one of our favorite vendors. We were floored when we got our pictures back. He captured everything beautifully and we hardly knew he was there! At the end of the night he gave us the kindest words and smiles. Do not even think twice about contacting him - he is the real deal and will make the process easy.

Forever Wild Vows

Forever Wild Vows was born out of a collective desire to help couples break free from tradition and create a day that reflects their unique love story. Our team of friends is dedicated to curating intimate and unforgettable elopement experiences surrounded by the beauty of the Adirondacks. There is peace in simplicity and value in the celebration of love in its purest and most intimate form. As an Adirondack elopement photographer, planner, officiant, and videography team, we are dedicated to capturing the essence of your special day amidst the breathtaking beauty of the ADK!

Perfect, that is the only way to describe our wedding day with Forever Wild. The team, the locations, the time, and even the weather all came together to give us our dream wedding. Tom, Lexi, and Marc Anthony helped us put our elopement together in only 6 weeks! Their outstanding knowledge of the Adirondacks led us to the stunning mountain views of Cobble Lookout for our ceremony and the still, quiet waters of Cascade Lake. Tom and Lexi are outstanding photographers and really captured every moment of our day! With almost 200 pictures in our album, each one was better than the last. Marc Anthony, our officiant, is an absolute gentleman. He led our ceremony with positive, heartwarming thoughts that helped remind us why my wife and I chose to tie the knot. From helping us bring all of our wedding gear up the mountain, to even helping us change when we reached our location, they made every part of our day easy and carefree. If you want a small, personal, and absolutely stunning setting for your wedding that you will never forget, choose Forever Wild. You will NOT be disappointed!

Cayuga, NY
  • Venue
  • Up to 135 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $4,000

Izzo's White Barn Winery is a family owned and operated, New York State licensed farm winery. We are located in beautiful Upstate New York, between Syracuse and Rochester in the award-winning Finger Lakes Wine Region. At Izzo's you have the benefit of holding your private event not only at a winery but also in our rustic one-hundred-year-old barn. The “White Barn” is a blank canvas and flourishes between late May and early October. With the options that we offer we have the flexibility and staff to meet your unique needs. We're excited to work with you and help bring your vision to life.

I want to start by saying that Emily at Izzo’s is so incredible she made our day and the time leading up to the wedding seamless. Any question I asked she would immediately respond and she even helped field questions from vendors directly. Emily was so incredibly kind the day of checking up to make sure we were all set and we truly did not have to worry about anything. If I needed help with something she was always there ready to help. The venue itself is so beautiful not only do you have the rustic barn, but also the winery, and there is the backdrop of the pond for the ceremony. I cannot recommend Izzo’s enough!

  • Indoor
  • Starts at $7,500

Blending history with modernity. SKY Armory is an urban, chic venue in the heart of downtown Syracuse NY. Featuring three loft-style ballrooms that can accommodate events from 50-900 guests. Whether you’re planning a wedding, a gala, or a corporate event, we’ll take care of all the details. Our event teams work closely with our clients to create not just events, but experiences that are extraordinary and memorable. Each couple getting married at SKY Armory falls in love (pun intended) with how flexible we are with our event spaces. We like to say 'mi casa, su casa' because we want you to know that when you're in our home, it's your home and want your style reflected in all aspects of the celebration. Instead of saying 'no,' we find a way.

From our very first visit to the SKY Armory until the big day, our questions and concerns were addressed immediately. The wedding coordinator Lisa was very helpful and organized and we always felt that all of our many details were in good hands. I highly recommend checking this venue out. Brick walls, tons of candles and hanging lights- a gorgeous venue on any of their 3 floors.
