Arrae Photography 

5.0

Grand Rapids, MI
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,400

My name is Amanda Montgomery and I am Arrae Photography based out of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The name Arrae (pronounced [uh-rey]) came from my first initial and my middle name, Rae, added an extra r and made a new word. I wanted something unique that was also me, the idea came to mind one day and it just fit. Being a photographer is all I've ever wanted to do with my life. When I was 12 I saved up my babysitting money to buy my first 'big time' camera. I formed Arrae Photography in 2003 as a part-time venture while I worked at local photo labs, went full time in 2008.

Amanda and her partner did an AMAZING job capturing our August 2024 wedding. My husband and I were blown away when we saw our gallery. She is a joy to work with and I highly recommend Arrae Photography to any couple.

Our Wedding hair and makeup Glam Squad is a carefully cultivated crew of the best stylists in Michigan. We all have several years of experience in the wedding industry and are devoted to bringing you confidence on your wedding day with your perfect style of hair and makeup.

Granted, I will start by saying my first trial with a hair and MU artist given to me was disastrous, the pretty committee made it right by giving me another trial with 2 different girls and they were amazing. Kara (MU) and Erin (Hair) did such an amazing job even with me being a bride and changing my mind a few times with the look. they took care of me and my 7 women so perfectly the day of the wedding, were on time, and I would recommend them to anyone in the south haven area.

Hi, I'm Mandy! I'm happiest at home with a cup of coffee (heavy on the cream & sugar), watching some HGTV (Fixer Upper anyone?!) & flipping through Instagram, with my beagle, Jack, snuggled on my feet. I love exploring new places with my sweetheart, Shawn, trying new foods, craft beer, coffee dates, Michigan autumns, and, of course, PHOTOGRAPHY! Thank you so much for stopping by my page. I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for you all, and I appreciate each and every one of you!

Portraits By Mandy was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Mandy's communication style was proactive, friendly, honest, and easygoing, which put us at ease throughout the entire process. Her experience, proficiency, and creative eye resulted in photos that we will cherish for a lifetime. Mandy was always in the right place at the right time, capturing special moments like my grandpa tenderly telling my husband to take care of me, and my husband reading the heartfelt note cards I had left for him that morning. If you're looking for a photographer who will build a lasting relationship with you as your marriage and family grows, Mandy is the perfect choice. Her work is worth every penny and you won’t regret choosing her for your wedding & future milestones!

Grand Rapids, MI
  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $2,250

We are a videography and production company based in West Michigan, and we're not in business of filmmaking because we have to be, we're in it because we want to be. Each member of our team has a passion for film and wants to bring their unique art to your story. Based out of Grand Rapids and operating since 2009, our team focuses on capturing candid moments and a small number of formal shots in order to create a truly beautiful and cinematic film of your day. We will approach your wedding day with fair pricing and an unwavering commitment to capturing every important moment that you can cherish for years to come.

When looking into vendors for our wedding, we debated a videographer because of the cost; when we came across Unnammed Films, it was a no brainer. We were so impressed at the different services that they had to offer. The quality of work, the professionalism and communication, and they way they tell the story of your wedding day through video is a MUST HAVE. Our wedding went from a large guest list in Traverse City, MI to a small town backyard wedding in Saint Charles, MI because of COVID-19, and Unnammed Films was the first of our vendors to reach out and make accommodations for live video feed if that was something that we wanted for our guest who might not be able to make it. The flexibility was incredible. They captured the essence of our big day in the big and little moments. Things that we might have missed in the busyness of the day, we were able to look back on through this video. We are so happy with our decision to have Unnamed Films capture our day, we would choose them again and again for all of our videographer needs.

She kept our payments on schedule and helped me get all the planning tasks done in a reasonable timeline. On the day, she showed up with an assistant and never sat down. They handled literally everything and the day went so smooth. My parents and grandparents were checked in on, my dress change was helped with, she brought me food and water when I didn't ask.

  • Starts at $2,200

We are the wedding coordination company for the couple who is planning their own wedding but wants to have a stress free wedding day. We include timeline creation and 3 meetings to make sure we understand your wedding day completely and can manage it perfectly.

We cannot thank Elysia and the whole team at The Best Day Details enough for being the absolute MVP of our wedding! From the very beginning, she was attentive and organized, guiding us through every step of the planning process. Before the Week: Elysia was incredibly helpful during the planning stage, which I hadn’t necessarily expected since it was primarily coordinating services rather than full planning. Thank goodness for that! She offered invaluable advice and suggestions that made logistics so much easier. She coordinated with vendors, handled logistics, and took care of so many other details. Before the Ceremony: On the day of the wedding, Elysia was calm and composed. She managed the timeline expertly (which is saying a lot since I must have been a bit frantic with everything I crammed in), ensured everything was in place, and resolved some last-minute issues. During the Ceremony: She made sure everything went off without a hitch! The energy during the ceremony was so much fun because she took care of anything that could have made it challenging. During the Reception: Now THIS is where Elysia was the real MVP. There were some significant timing, logistics, and vendor obstacles, and Elysia handled ALL of them. Her attention to detail made our day, and everyone else's, just incredible. She kept everything running smoothly, managed the timeline, and addressed any concerns we had without us even noticing. Elysia made our wedding day everything we dreamed of and more. We couldn't have done it without her expertise and dedication. If you're looking for someone who will truly go above and beyond, look no further!

Wildcrest Studio 

5.0

Grand Rapids, MI
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

Wildcrest Studio, established by Jessie Harris, is a natural light, lifestyle photographer. I aim to capture the magic of your wedding day and you as a unique couple through peerless, stunning photographs!

I am going to try and get off my soapbox for this review but I make no promises. Hiring Jessie Harris and Wildcrest Studios for my wedding was the single best decision I have ever made, except for marrying my husband. We had a small wedding, with a small budget, a very specific vision, no planner or coordinator, and no freaking clue what we were doing. From my first phone call with Jessie I knew that she was something special. She is experienced, organized, diligent, detail oriented, creative, kind, patient, and funny as heck. She truly listens to what you are hoping for and - somehow, despite all odds - she makes it happen. She LITERALLY threw off her shoes and climbed into Lake Michigan to get a shot of my husband and I on a dock at sunset. She kicked the groomsmen out of the area during our first touch because it was ruining the moment and I was too emotional and nervous to say anything. She drove across the state to shoot a pre-wedding reception for us. Alex, the second shooter, tied my husband’s bow tie for him before he walked down the aisle… and my brother’s… and my dad’s… and I’m pretty sure half the groomsmen’s bow ties too. She helped us create the timeline for our wedding day. She even gave us advice on what to pick for our first dance. And, to top it all off, she has provided us with the most unbelievable and stunning engagement, reception, and wedding day photos I could have imagined. Grateful doesn’t begin to cover how I feel when thinking about finding Jessie and Wildcrest Studios. Do yourself a favor and at least send an inquiry. Or don’t, and I’ll keep her all to myself :)

From the first time we contacted Michelle, she was nothing but kind and professional. She communicated with us about details and any questions we had. On the day of our wedding, she was incredible to work with. She worked alongside our photographer and it was so smooth! The day we got our highlight video and our ceremony video was ALMOST as amazing as our wedding day! Michelle’s videography skills along with her editing work is breathtaking. Every time we watch our videos, we end up in happy tears. The way she captured our entire day and highlighted all of our favorite parts and put it all together in a video made us speechless.

I'm a love storyteller from Grand Rapids, Michigan. I primarily photograph weddings and engagements in and around the Midwest as well as destination weddings. I aim to tell love stories as honestly, candidly and uniquely as possible and I hope those attributes come across in my imagery. I firmly believe Love is Love and that everyone deserves beautiful images. I promise I will go above and beyond for you and be genuinely invested in your photographs far beyond just taking pictures. I've told hundreds of love stories and I hope to tell yours one day.

Awarded Best of Zola
It is really hard for me to put into words just how amazing Katie and her husband Matt are. We found them through our friends who used them for their wedding. We knew we wanted to do a destination wedding, and our friends had attended one the year before in Jamaica which Katie and Matt photographed. Because of that wedding, they chose them to be their photographer for their wedding in Michigan. After we saw the photos from the destination wedding and our friend's engagement photos we knew they would be perfect for us. After we saw our friend's wedding photos we knew made the right choice. Katie and Matt from the beginning were super helpful and were incredibly integral on our wedding weekend and day. When they arrived in Mexico, they met up with us and started to work immediately. They came to our rehearsal helping us decide where to put our camera for filming the ceremony and other helpful advice for the day of. They helped find the PERFECT first look location. On the day of the wedding, Katie and Matt were energetic and came ready to help put us to ease. Katie and Matt just have a way of making you feel at ease and then make you look like models. They did a great combination of classic portraits but a lot of candid photos mixed in (which were my favorites). They stayed through the our whole reception and the photos we got look out of a bridal magazine. We had a secondary shoot the day after as a Trash the Dress photo shoot, and the sunset photos we got look like post cards. The only down side of using Katie and Matt is that they gave us too many photos we want to print and get framed! Book them for your destination wedding (or Michigan wedding) and you will absolutely be making the best decision!

Choosing this venue was truly a worthwhile investment! We were originally concerned about the option of only one bar vendor. But we now know why they prioritize them! Martha's catering went above and beyond for us and the bartenders were wonderful. They clearly know the venue and have a lot of experience. So do not let the catering options deter you, clearly St. Cecilia's has them picked for a reason and you can trust your vendors! Have I mentioned that the building is gorgeous!?!

We worked with Skye through all of the planning and setup, and I cannot experience how unique, amazing, and beautiful the venue is. We called it our treehouse adventure, and it was nothing short of that. The layout is excellent, it has great views of Grand Rapids, many of the bigger vendors work with the Bissell Treehouse, and overall it was a very easy process to get everything setup and squared away.

Cheat Day Sweets 

5.0

  • Cakes & desserts
  • Starts at $12
  • Serves Grand Rapids, MI

Cheat Day Sweets was created as the passion project of its founder, who embodies the conflicted spirit of both fitness enthusiast AND baker. Out of this push/pull mindset, a sweets/treats brand was envisioned that allowed for a "once-in-a-while" cheat day, because we all need a well-deserved reward every now and then. Made fresh to order in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Cheat Day Sweets is a locally owned and operated small business that strives for the perfect sweet creation, each and every bake. If we aren't confident in our own flavors, we don't make it. Only the best, most luxurious, delicious treats are worthy of OUR Cheat Day.

Melissa did an incredible job on the desserts for our wedding! These were honestly the best desserts I’ve ever had! She set up everything beautifully, was so easy to work with, responded quickly, and was very flexible. I’m so happy we decided to go with Cheat Day Sweets for our wedding day!

Kaitlin Jude Photography

Grand Rapids, MI
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style

I am an intimate wedding photographer based out of my home state, the Mitten. To sum it up, I'm laid back, chill, and ready to hang out. I call myself an intimate wedding photographer because I work best with couples who want a smaller, more close-knit feel to their wedding day and because I offer my clients a sense of familiarity, and comfortability and help them feel relaxed and ready for the day ahead. By the end-we're great friends! My hope with every session I have is that you'll find not only the pictures beautiful but the shared experience one to remember as well.

Kaitlin did a fantastic job capturing my wedding day. She got along so well with everyone in the wedding party which made shooting a blast. Her work is outstanding, she is so easy to work with, and I would recommend her to everyone.

I am OBSESSED with Big City Vibes! It was an incredible gift to have my wedding florals in such capable, creative hands. From start to finish, Big City Vibes made this an easy, stress-free experience for me! I felt like their highest priority. They listened to my vision and elevated the floral design *above and beyond* what I had imagined on my own. They communicated clearly and consistently, and I also never felt pressured to spend more money than what I had budgeted. I am so impressed with their flexibility, attention to detail, and passion for their craft. The florals are still what I loved most about our wedding! I HIGHLY recommend Big City Vibes, and I can’t wait to work with them again in the future.

Grand Rapids, MI
  • Planner
  • Offers 5 services
  • Starts at $500

Stellaluna Events was born out of a passion for creating fulfilling experiences, and we strive to curate celebrations that bring about feelings of comfort and belonging. We don't believe weddings are about choosing certain decor just because it's trendy or overspending to impress your guests. Your wedding or event should be about gathering a group of your favorite people together to celebrate. It's about making a meaningful memory to treasure for the rest of your life. We love couples who throw out tradition. Let us encourage you to do it differently.

I can’t express enough how grateful I am for Hannah!! When we found ourselves in a bit of a last-minute scramble, she stepped in with grace and an incredible sense of calm. From the very first moment, Hannah took our stress away and turned our vision into a beautiful reality, far beyond what we could have ever imagined. She not only embraced our ideas but enhanced them with her own creativity and attention to detail, making our wedding day truly magical. Every detail felt perfectly aligned with our vision, showing how deeply she understood and cared about what we wanted. It was like having a friend who just got us, making sure everything was exactly as we hoped. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond to make your day extraordinary, look no further. We couldn’t have done it without Hannah and we will be forever grateful for her kindness and commitment. Thank you so much for turning our dreams into reality and for making our wedding day unforgettable. We can’t recommend you highly enough!

The old school just down Leonard is now Leona Road. A modern event venue in Grand Rapids with weddings on the mind. The walls are the same but the stories they’ll tell are all new. Originally built in 1916 as West Leonard Elementary School and fully renovated in 2020–2021, Leona Road is a wedding and event venue with Scandinavian Modern styling from the experienced team behind The Cheney Place, Fringe Events and PUNCH Bar Catering. With 19,000 square feet, a large outdoor terrace and free onsite parking, there is plenty of room to host your wedding for up to 300 guests.

We loved working with Leona Road and the venue was perfection. Having everything from the ceremony, to cocktail hour, to reception in one place was amazing. It was so fluid and the renovation of the building is MADE for weddings. Plus, the pics are just stunning.

Alfield Reeves Photography 

5.0

Grand Rapids, MI
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,700

I am a Liberian-American portrait & editorial photographer based in West Michigan. I specialize in creating work that encourages self-reflection and expression, promotes equitable action and showcases the black and brown identity and culture. My images are warm, quiet and bold. They bridge traditional divides between photojournalism, portraiture and fashion. My work is featured in magazines and online platforms like Vogue Greece, Grand Rapids Magazine, Grand Rapids Business Journal, ProPublica, and The Trace to name a few. My work has been part of numerous exhibitions locally and statewide.

My husband and I got married in 2019. We booked Alfield for our engagement photos and our wedding photos. The price is so worth the quality and experience you get when working with Alfield. We literally got our photos back the same week as our wedding. All of them were edited, even a physical photo box and custom-created album. Very professional, timely, and easy to work with. No hassle and I never had to worry about any of the logistics related to photography. Alfield seemed to have everything down to a science and every shot was perfect. He could walk around the city and with ease find beautiful shots. He is an artist and an incredible one at that. He had a small team on the day of the wedding, in order to capture both sides of the pre-wedding moments. Whenever I have a need for a photographer, I immediately reach out to Alfield, and can't see that changing unless he becomes unavailable. I have since done professional headshots with him, which came out perfect and just how I envisioned. I highly highly HIGHLY recommend hiring Alfield for any wedding photography or ANY photo needs for that matter. I couldn't be happier with all the work he has done for us. We are lifelong customers.
