When we arrived at Castle Unicorn for the first time, the two of us look at each other and knew this would be our venue. Castle Unicorn is the first and only palace we look at for our weeding… if you are wondering the answer is YES, Castle Unicorn is that beautiful! The day of our weeding the place looked absolutely beautiful, just like a place taken out of a fairy tale, everything was perfect and in place, this in turn allowed us to just enjoy our big day, this a testimony of the staff actually listening to us and materializing all our likes and needs in the decoration and atmosphere. The set-up of the whole place was detailed and immaculate, just stunning, and the service stellar, impeccable from the way the staff dressed to the way they catered and serviced our guests, impressive, remarkable… just incredible. The food was beautifully presented and delicious. Most of our guests said that this was the most beautiful wedding they have attended in their lives. This in large was due to John and Ray, the owners, and their staff at Castle Unicorn, that provide us with tons of useful advice and at the same time were open to our ideas. This truly was the wedding we always dream of; I could not imagine us getting married anywhere else. Castle Unicorn and their staff really made our wedding the most beautiful wedding ever! They are the best! If you are planning a wedding or just thinking about getting married, pay them a visit, you will be glad you did, I can guarantee it!

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 

4.8

  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Council Bluffs, IA

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
I ordered the "peaches and cream" small package. We decided to skip on ceremony florals, and only have handhelds and bud vases at the reception. We did buy a few more flowers from the grocery to add more peach once the flowers arrived. We made and medium sized bridal bouquet, 4 bridesmaids bouquets, 3 corsages, and 7 bouts. (With lots of flowers left over). My bridesmaids and I did the arranging the morning before the wedding; it was fun, and a great start to the weekend. None of us had experience, but it all turned out great! If you or your bridal party are mildly crafty, I'd highly recommend it!

Jen was AMAZING to work with! When it came to flowers for my wedding, I had NO IDEA what I wanted. She was very patient with me and helped talk me through my vision. She gave me flowers to pick from, talked about how big I wanted my bouquet and how much greenery I wanted, and then when I could find colors I liked in swatches, she color-matched the colors I wanted from an inspo pic I found online! She was very professional and patient with me, even when my plans changed or I needed to add to my order.  I am not the best at putting together a bouquet. I am also someone who likes control, especially when it came to planning my wedding. I was thankful that I was able to give Jen the reins, tell her what I wanted, and watch her make my dreams come true. When I first saw my flowers, I was speechless. She truly did make my floral dreams come true, and now I get to keep my bouquet for the rest of my life! A wooden flower bouquet from Jen is the way to go!

His energetic style, creative mixing ability, and crowd pleasing music selection will leave you and your guests talking about how much fun they had for years to come. 🙌🏼

Awarded Best of Zola
DJ Milk helped make our wedding everything that we could dream of. He was extremely attentive to us, would not move onto next segments of the night (i.e. speeches, bouquet toss, etc.) without finding us to talk about what we want to do. It was very helpful and carefree for us to have him do the heavy lifting throughout the night by seeking US out, rather than us trying to get to him. It wasn't something that crossed my mind leading up to the wedding, but once I saw how he organized it, I knew that it made the world of difference. He was very timely, professional and made the room look great with his professional lighting. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a fun & easy choice.

Alternative Wedding DJs

Stereotypical wedding DJs spoil the fun. They play the same songs (boring). There are gaps between songs (awkward). And they talk on the mic too much (obnoxious). We’re the alternative. We beat match & blend music (non-stop dancing) We use the mic appropriately (vibe isn’t ruined) We personalize the playlist with your input (you’ll love the music) If you say things like, “We’re having a non-traditional wedding!,” or “We need to blend our multicultural families,” or “I’ll die if my domineering future mother-in-law demands that the DJ to play her QVC album collection,” ... then we're for you!

I would like to start by saying. "WOW". I recently had the pleasure of hiring DJ Elliott Ness for my son's wedding, and I cannot speak highly enough about the remarkable job they did. From the beginning, DJ Ness demonstrated impressive detail orientation and professionalism that set the tone for an exceptional event. During our planning meetings, it was clear that we were in the hands of an experienced professional. The DJ Ness took the time to understand our vision, preferences, and specific needs for the wedding. His expertise shone through as he provided insightful suggestions and curated a playlist that perfectly matched the ambiance we wanted to create. Every detail, from the song selection to the timing of the announcements, was meticulously planned. On the day of the wedding, DJ Ness's performance exceeded all expectations. His engaging presence and ability to read the crowd kept the energy high throughout the ceremony and reception. Guests were consistently on their feet, dancing and enjoying themselves, which is a testament to his talent for keeping the party lively and entertaining. His seamless transitions between songs and genres ensured that there was never a dull moment on the dance floor. The wedding was truly spectacular, and much of its success can be attributed to the DJ's genius and expertise. He not only played great music but also created an unforgettable experience that we and our guests will cherish forever. If you're looking for a DJ and MC who are professional, experienced, and capable of delivering an unforgettable wedding celebration, I wholeheartedly recommend DJ Elliott Ness!!!!

The day of our wedding went by so fast, but every single image she captured brings me back in an instant. She not only captured our love story, but captured our friends and family beautifully. Every silly moment, tender exchange and happy tear was published in our gallery — and for that, I am forever grateful. THANK YOU Ashley & Meredith, our wedding day was all the more special with your talent!

I got into DJing by accident. After learning that working as an Industrial Engineer in a fortune 500 company didn't bring me much fulfillment, a friend suggested I join his DJ company. His company supplied DJ services for over 200 weddings a year! After my first wedding gig I was hooked. It gave me purpose, and an outlet I never knew was possible. I quickly became the most requested DJ in the company and within my market. Now I DJ on my own, and I'm so blessed to be able to curate an atmosphere of joy where families can connect.

I've worked with Obie many times over the years and love running into him outside of events. He always bring the highest level and most genuine energy to every wedding. He truly cares that every guest is having a great time and that couples are well taken care of through their wedding day. Obie brings the fun and makes sure everyone is on the dance floor. He is also very communicative and caring of his relationships with other vendors, as well.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

I can’t stop showing people my photos and my family can’t stop asking me for more!

I’m Haverlee, (hay-verlee), solo parent of three wild things. My photography career was birthed from many years of pain. My life derailed and everything felt unstable and uncertain. The more difficult things became, the more I clung to small moments of beauty. When things felt dark, I clung to the light. And I could always find light in people and in nature. Focusing on others instead of my own dark days brought me joy every time without fail. I always knew I was creative but it took me a while to find my niche! As I ventured into photography, everything fell into place. It was as if I already knew the language, I just had to find the words.

There is no one in the world who does it like Haverlee. Haverlee was my family photographer growing up, she did my Mom’s maternity photos, she did my senior photos, and now my wedding photos. There is something really special about receiving photos that bring you back to moments you don’t want to forget, and that’s exactly what she captures- every single time. I’m thankful for the ways she doesn’t create staged photos, but captures genuine moments. I couldn’t recommend a photographer more than her, and am absolutely convinced I won’t ever go with another photographer!

I'M LEXI - TRUE TONE CINEMATIC STORYTELLR BASED IN N. ILLINOIS. E I love that you've found me - Welcome! As a photographer, I have a passion for capturing the rare love shared by couples on their wedding day. Being a mom and wife wanting to capture my own weddings forever moments I feel like that has given me a deep appreciation for creating timeless images that tell your unique love story. With my keen attention to detail and storytelling skills, I am committed to creating stunning photographs that will be treasured for a lifetime. Let's work together to capture your special day.

Rare Love Film was the way to go for us! I’ve always been insecure in how I look in photos but when we got our engagement pictures, I finally felt confident again! I was encouraged to take off the jacket I wore to cover my arms and told that every part of me was beautiful. I was nervous but when the photos came back, I was in love!! They turned out better than I could have imagined and instead of being insecure looking at them, they turned out to be photos that we will look back at for the rest of our lives! The way I was encouraged and supported made me know that it was the perfect choice! They are amazing to work with through the whole experience!

They have such a knack for finding those perfect, candid shots that totally show the real us. Plus, the way they set up the posed photos. When we got our photos and the video, we couldn't stop smiling and laughing. They caught all the love, laughter, and even the crazy dance moves (hello, epic dance party!). The highlight reel was like a mini movie of the best day ever—we’ve already watched it a million times! The whole experience was just fun and stress-free, thanks to their good vibes and clear communication. They really listened to what we wanted and made sure we felt comfortable and relaxed.
