We were thrilled with The Gallagher as our wedding venue. Their communication throughout the planning process was clear, direct, and thoughtful. The venue itself is stunning and they were very accommodating to make our vision a reality. Our day-of coordinator Jenna was fantastic - she made sure everything ran smoothly so my husband and I could relax and enjoy our special day. Guests raved about how beautiful the venue was and how delicious the food was. Even though it was a hot July day, The Gallagher kept us comfortable with their climate control. At the end of the night, they cleaned up and packed everything to go home with us. I would highly recommend The Gallagher to any couple looking for a beautiful, accommodating venue with superb staff to help you pull off the wedding of your dreams.

SoundWave has been providing DJ services for over 15 years full time and have a love for entertaining people. We are constantly learning and updating our skillsets to bring the best performances out. SoundWave is a niche company. We not only provide entertainment packages but can also provide photography and videography packages in addition, making our business a one-stop shop for some of the most important wedding services.

When my now husband and I began looking for a wedding DJ and photographer we put out requests for info from multiple companies. The owner and DJ, Matt, reached out to me within seconds of me sending a request to Soundwave and we set up a meeting. After a wonderful meeting with Matt’s wife and photographer, Marie, we were sold! Both Matt and Marie were available on our wedding day so we hired them both. They have a huge music selection and even provided music for the ceremony. DJ Matt was still able to get people moving on the dance floor at our outdoor wedding on a humid 90 degree day in July. Marie came early to photograph as we were getting ready and was determined to get all of the perfect shots throughout the day even with the period of rain we had. I would highly recommend!

They informed me that they hired DJ Steve & I was excited to meet him & get the party going for that night. I had so much fun that night with Steve & hopefully again in the future too! There was always a bunch of people on the dance floor which made my job easy to get some awesome dancing shots. PLUS! He knew how to make the bride happy with playing her favorite T Swift songs!

When I was planning my wedding, choosing Toy Bros was a no brainer. I had been to so many other weddings where they knocked it out of the park, and mine was no exception. Our DJ, Matt, was absolutely amazing. He kept the whole night on schedule, checked in with us to make sure that we were having a good time and hearing what we wanted to hear, and was an overall amazing human. He was dancing and vibing with us all night long, and all of the guests raved about him. I seriously cannot recommend Matt enough. We also had Joe as our photobooth attendant, and he did a great job helping our guests operate the photobooth and get their photo strips into our guestbook. Overall, our experience with Toy Bros was phenomenal. Do yourself a favor and book them for your wedding too!

Welcome to Russell Photography. This is not just my job, but my passion! Your wedding day is as special to me at it is to you! My #1 goal is to give you the most amazing photos for you to have for a lifetime. High quality photos, at an affordable price! Plus, we are going to have fun while doing it!!

If that resonates with you, you have come to the right place. I can't wait to talk to you, get to know you and to hear all of your amazing plans!!

Lisa went above and beyond with every detail. She made sure my dress was positioned properly, she helped my awkward self know what to do when posing, she was so personable, and went the extra mile to keep me comfortable and feeling confident. After I made a comment about “my good side” she made sure I was always posing in ways that emphasized my good side. After receiving my preview I was so happy with how the photos came out. The pictures were clear and vibrant. She even captured candid moments that I will cherish forever. If I had to go back and do it again I would hire her 100 times over!

I just wish we could relive our wedding day over and over again, even thought that isn’t possible I feel that I can every time I look at our wedding photos from Bee Photography. Bridget from Bee Photography is very professional. I would say this is also a major perk as well jf your husband is anything like mine and has a short attention span when it comes to any sort of photos, Bee photography made that process quick, easy and simple for my husband. I would recommend her over and over again, not just for your wedding but any special event your family may be having!

We worked with Syrie and the Social Maven team for our wedding this September and could not be more grateful for the time, care, and thought they put into our event. We worked closely with Syrie for a year and half to plan our wedding in my parents’ backyard. Syrie and her in team, in conjunction with our incredible vendors (all recommendations of Syrie’s) turned our backyard into a stunning and intimate venue for a wedding. We were fully present and able to spend time with our loved ones and each other on the day, all thanks to Syrie. Despite a very rainy morning, Syrie’s team made a beautiful outdoor evening ceremony and cocktail hour possible. Syrie always advocated for us throughout the process, and prioritized the comfort and enjoyment of our guests as well (which was very important to us). The planning process was largely stress-free, enjoyable, and our wedding was even better than we could have imagined. Rest assured that Syrie, her team, and the vendors she recommends will make your event memorable, personable, and beautiful down to every last detail. THANK YOU Syrie and the Social Maven team.

Jackie was the perfect choice for our wedding! The photos we’ve received so far were exactly what we were looking for. She was so creative and possibly one of the sweetest human beings I’ve met! She was so easy to work with and was pretty much down for anything. If you’re looking for your pictures to feel romantic and timeless, she is your girl!!

Also, I'm afraid of gum.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough great things about Lindsay as our wedding photographer. She has such a talent for capturing emotion and truly telling the story of your wedding day through her photos. So many of her photos bring me right back to how I was feeling in those moments. She shoots a perfect blend of traditional portraits and the candid "in-between" memories. She captures details and moments that you never even realized she was there to catch. During the formal portraits she does a great job helping you feel comfortable and giving posing directions. However, I truly think she stands apart because of her ability to capture “real” moments and be discreet during parts of the day where she isn't explicitly giving direction, while still getting every aspect you could want (e.g. during the ceremony, dance floor, etc.). She has some angles of our ceremony that I still don’t know how she was able to capture them, we didn’t even notice she was right there! Her work truly speaks for itself. I am so very grateful that we chose her to photograph our wedding and that we have continued to work with her in the years since our wedding for our maternity, newborn and family photos. Lindsay has truly become a friend in the process of being our wedding photographer. I recommend her to all of my friends who are planning their weddings and I look forward to working with her in the future.

Sarah is incredible - she's the kind of person you WANT at your wedding, birthday, family gathering, party. She is so professional, her photographs are incredible and she's got a great sense of humor. Not only have we had the pleasure of asking Sarah to capture milestones in our life (wedding, child, dog), we have also gotten to see her work at many of our close friends weddings. Sarah makes you feel entirely comfortable whilst being photographed, and all of her directives are clear and concise. She always puts the bride/groom first and I'm always amazed by her calm demeanor at the often-times very busy wedding ceremonies and receptions. When you hire Sarah, you're going to know that on the day she is going to capture exactly what you want. When she sends you the sneak peak, you're going to be blown away, and when she gives you the password for ALL of your photos, it will put a huge smile on your face because you'll realize that somehow, Sarah really did capture in photos exactly what your celebration felt like on the day.

The beautiful moments that we share with others are those that make our lives rich and meaningful. Being truly present with people and using the camera to share their essence is what I'm all about. For over 10 years I have been honored to photograph weddings for couples from around the world. It is a joy to be a part of each one of them as every moment of the day is brimming with a certain golden, shimmering happiness. I am committed to telling the story of your love, naturally and elegantly.

When we were researching photographers for our wedding, I wanted to find someone whose photos told a beautiful story from start to finish. I found Tara through raving reviews online and after our initial meeting, she made her way out to Washington DC to shoot our engagement pictures. One pandemic and a full calendar year and some change later, we met again for our wedding day in Cleveland, Ohio. Words cannot express how wonderful Tara and Matt were. Tara's serene demeanor and Matt's easy-going personality made our wedding day a breeze. I very distinctly remember calling her two days before to iron out last-minute changes on my part and telling her how much calmer I was just hearing her voice. Tara has a way of capturing memories in the most beautiful way. Her photos are not only gorgeous, but looking at one single photo, she captures the energy and emotion in that moment. It's very clear she takes much pride in her work and treats her clients as family. There is no one else Jonathan and I would trust to capture the most precious and important memories in our lives than Tara.

Hi there! Im Tatyana, the owner and designer of Luxe Stem Design. I love having this creative outlet where I can use my passion and talent to help the every day bride. I aspire to bring elegance and the luxury feel to every design. Im so glad you're here! Feel free to reach out and chat!

Listens to every request! We hired LuxeStemDesign for our wedding in October. We first had a consultation with the owner, Tanya, and from the beginning she was so professional and thorough. Throughout the planning process she was always so quick to answer messages, calls, and any suggestions we had. She went above and beyond for us. I couldn't be more happy with how our flowers turned out. From the ceremony to the reception and all the little details in between (welcome sign, receiving table, cake table, photo booth area) you can tell that she put very careful thought into everything she did. Our guests couldn't stop gushing over the beautiful blooms she chose for our big day. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone that needs a vendor who actually cares!!

We feel we are setting a new standard for commitment to service in the WNY DJ community. We Are Here To Give You Your Day, Your Way You Bring The Love And We Will Bring The Sound See You On The Dance Floor

I can’t speak highly enough about this DJ. We found him through a promotion he was running with our photographers. Our venue was certainly not easy to deal with and was trying to control the entire wedding, cut our speeches short, and was rude to almost all of our vendors. However, Chris fought for us at every turn and made sure we had the best reception experience possible. He was incredibly helpful, punctual, made sure all of our wishes came true, all of the announcements we needed got said, and made the overall experience amazing. I don’t think the dance floor was ever empty at any point during the reception, and this was definitely thanks to the high energy vibes he brings with him. I appreciated him so much for helping execute everything according to our vision and ensuring that we got our dream wedding.

  • Fine art style
  • Serves Gainesville, NY

Since 2010, I've been connecting with individuals, couples, and their families to capture and create beautiful memories. Whether it was a family session filled with laughs while trying to get the father to smile, a shy senior showing confidence in their senior portrait session, or a beautiful couple saying yes to forever together, I've been there to capture all of the love. I've also worked with a variety of clients such as Canisius College, Fisher-Price, Mattel, Thomas & Friends, the Associated Press, The Guinness Book of World Records, and more.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’ve known Brianna since my freshman year of college. I fell in love with her work and jokingly told her she would one day be the photographer for my wedding when I wasn’t engaged yet. When I finally found Mr. Right, I booked her right away. Her pricing is amazing, her work is phenomenal. She is so down to Earth and has such a beautiful, authentic personality. My husband hates getting his picture taken as well as attention. Brianna made him feel comfortable and we had so much fun on our special day. She gets so excited about editing your photos as you are to receive them, so expect a quick turn around. She doesn’t rush, she just genuinely loves her work. She balances professionalism with being a kind hearted person. So many photographers can come off as robotic and cold, she is the complete opposite and her communication with you from beginning to the end is awesome as well. Even with a pandemic, she adjusted and made our day feel as normal as it could get even with all of the safety regulations. I cannot recommend her enough. She’s the best!

The morning of, I decided to chop off quite a bit of hair on a whim and Christina handled it beautifully - she trimmed and styled my hair into a gorgeous, sleek look that my husband loved. Beyond my hair, Christina did an amazing job with makeup for me and my bridesmaids. She made sure to complement everyone's individual features and preferences. The final looks were flawless and stayed put all night long on the dance floor! Overall, Christina's work was beyond beautiful and really enhanced our whole wedding experience.

I am a wedding and elopement photographer located in Wyoming county. I love to take photos of weddings and elopements. Some say I have a true passion for what I do. I have learned a lot since I started and each wedding or session I am always striving to learn more. As a business owner I am fully insured and strive to be professional at everything I do. It's my goal to be able to do this full time someday! I love being able to capture someone's day it brings me happiness. I'm a pretty laid back go with the flow type of person. I do my absolute best to provide you with photos you'll remember forever.

I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. Tabatha was more than willing to help with any wedding issues I had. She captured so many amazing photos. I’m so thankful we chose her for our big day. Because of her, our wedding was captured in beautiful photos to be reminded of our gorgeous day.

Kiran Photography

I’ll be the first to say I never thought I’d be here doing this. The day after I received my Bachelors in Science degree, I picked my childhood camera back up again and realized how effortlessly photography came to me. I was asked to do 2 weddings that year.. which turned into the 25 a year I do now... and I never looked back. Almost a decade later, I've worked in places like the tropical beaches of Puerto Vallarta to the serene rolling hills of Italy and everywhere in between, my one primary goal has remained to document love in the most authentic way.

Kiran is THE BEST couples photographer in the WNY area! We found her wedding photography page on Instagram while searching for Buffalo photographers. What we LOVE most about Kiran’s work is that her style of editing is true to tone, which is extremely important to us as a mixed and interracial couple. From the beginning Kiran made us feel cared for and was detailed with what we could expect throughout the process, which put our minds at ease during the day of. Kiran made us feel confident and comfortable while capturing all the special and intimate moments. She was so much fun to work with and the quality of her work shows throughout our gallery. We would recommend Kiran to everyone looking for a wedding/couples photographer and we are looking forward to working with Kiran again for as our destination photographer!

Her attention to detail and dedication to making the day as seamless as possible was remarkable. You could tell she is incredibly passionate about her role, always one step ahead and ready to handle any situation with grace. Having such a committed professional behind the scenes made the day not only enjoyable but stress-free for everyone involved, including the couple, their families, and even vendors like myself.

Family (Pezzino) owned business since it's inception in 1978. Simple business philosophy of Trust, Confidence and Likeability. While we do many types of events and gatherings, Weddings is our specilaty and passion. Thank you for considering Samuel's Grande Manor and Cheers to Love, Life & MArriage

Choosing Samuel’s as our venue was the best decision we ever made. Right from the beginning we fell in love with the space, we even moved our wedding date up from October to August so we could take full advantage of the outdoor fountain bar. There are no words to be able to fully describe how wonderful working with Mark was – he answered all of our questions, took us on as many tours as we wanted, and really made us feel confident in our decision. The planning process was very stress-free on our end which made it so much easier to enjoy. Renea was our captain on the day of and thanks to her everything ran so smoothly and on schedule. She took my scribbles of centerpieces and transformed the space into something more beautiful than I could have imagined. I spent the whole day on-site thanks to the beautiful bridal suite, which helped our timeline significantly, and provided a quiet space to be able to relax and take in every moment. Bonus – there was a groom’s suite as well! Samuel’s worked seamlessly with our other vendors as well and we were able to drop off our items earlier in the week so there was one less thing to worry about the weekend of. Then there was the food – absolutely incredible. From the cocktail hour appetizers to the main courses, everything was perfectly timed and delicious. They even accommodated our request to have some of the cocktail hour appetizers brought to the bridal suite so we could have a moment to ourselves and enjoy the food as well. We have gotten so many compliments on our wedding day and we owe it all to the team at Samuel’s!

Enchanted Valley Farm is an authentic working farm with tractors, corn fields, horses and picturesque mountains surrounding you, making this the perfect location to get married and have a rustic reception. We've recently completed a ton of upgrades to make you and your guests more comfortable while retaining that authentic rustic atmosphere. Our 3400 sq ft Barn features a large crystal chandelier, Oak front stalls and dance floor. There are several areas for guests to be entertained such as our fire pit area, grass ring enclosed by white rail fence or front porch of our 1940's farm house, which is also available to rent and allow you and some guests to stay on-site. Our sister location The Enchanted Valley Inn is a stunning fully restored Victorian Bed and Breakfast located near by in downtown Portville and is available for out of town guests, bridal showers and engagement parties or rent the Inn to start your honeymoon off the right way with champagne and chocolates.

We were contracted to cater a wedding at the Enchanted Valley Farm. The owners were very accommodating and helpful. If there was a question or a need for anything they were responsive and reliable. The barn in which the wedding and reception are held is beautiful and unique. Next door is a house the wedding party can stay, which I thought was a fabulous idea. The land surrounding is stunning and perfect for wedding pictures. The Enchanted Valley Farm is the perfect place to host your special day and will leave you with pleasant memories.
