Matawan, NJ
  • Videographer
  • Documentary style
  • Starts at $1,200

Hello! My name is Fen, nice to meet you online! I’m a freelance cinematographer and editor. I split my time between shooting weddings and indie films. I enjoy doing both because I love the thrill of operating a camera and I love people and stories! I have shot over 300 weddings and I edit everything myself. In my spare time I love swimming, hiking, skiing, traveling with my family, writing and learning all kinds of stuff. I’m very curious about the world!

We've had the pleasure of working with Fen on a few different occasions. She is extremely diligent, very pleasant to work with, and produces stellar work. On the wedding day, when things are always hectic, Fen measures the pace of the day brilliantly and always makes sure to capture all the critical moments. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any couple looking for solid cinematography work.

Awarded Best of Zola
Dayna is an absolutely fantastic businesswoman, and a true artist! Her before/after photos show off her skill - what isn't shown is how lovely the make-up *feels* and how easy it is to wear! Communicating with Dayna was so easy - she guided me through the wedding trial and day-of process with detailed and focused e-mails (my preferred method of contact). I was never uncertain of her professionalism or reliability. As a bride, juggling vendors can be so time-consuming, and I never had worry about asking a million follow-up questions with Dayna - she made it all so simple and still made me feel special. I had complete confidence that the bridal party prep would be executed perfectly - and it absolutely was! She and her assistant needed so little from us and worked so efficiently while still having fun! Beyond all of this, Dayna is the gentlest person who brings a welcome calm to a chaotic time. She is so much more than a make-up artist - she is a smart and kind woman who will always be a gracious guest in your home. Dayna was recommended to me by a friend, and I will certainly be recommending her to others!

MTC Photography 

5.0

Matawan, NJ
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,900

I have been photographing weddings since 2008. As the wedding industry has evolved over the years so has the wedding photography aspect. Trends as in the past have long gone and newer more non traditional styles have evolved. As photographers, we have to continue to learn and hone our craft like most careers. The "MTC" stands for not only my initials but also stands for " Moments To Capture" I'd like to think that at every wedding, event, etc we are capturing moments and creating lasting memories. At the same time however, we are enjoying the day with our couples and making sure they have the best experience we can give them. Lets have fun!

I’ve worked weddings with MTC Photography since 2012 - Manny and his team are by far my favorite to work with. They respect other vendors schedules (which is rare), never invade personal space and are not only professional, but also so much fun to work with! You know the moment Manny arrives - he always livens up the room and gets everyone excited. They know how to keep everyone on track and on schedule, without creating stress. I also love how the style of the photos are timeless and true to color, which I love reposting because they really show off my work nicely (as opposed to light and airy presets). I could not recommend a better company and always recommend them to my clients.

DJ Cam truly went above and beyond! As a bride who knows how to micromanage, I never felt that way with DJ Cam. He perfectly captured the music vibe my fiancé and I love and delivered an incredible performance. We wanted the music to naturally draw people to the dance floor without any emcee work, and DJ Cam nailed it with a fantastic set list. He avoided the typical "wedding-y" songs and created the party atmosphere we dreamed of. DJ Cam was super responsive via email, text, and phone, and his fun yet professional demeanor made everything smooth. He arrived early to set up and handle any potential challenges, ensuring a relaxed and enjoyable evening. We felt completely at ease knowing he had everything under control.

We are Mark & Brittany Edman, NJ based wedding team. Mark created “This Insane Idea” with the vision that anything is possible. As your lead shooter, he had a passion for photography his entire life, capturing moments around him in the most authentic ways until one day Brittany told him “go full time”, it was insane. He fell in love with wedding photography and the emotion it brought out for everyone involved. Coming home so happy with unique stories and photos from all over the state, Brittany knew she needed to join him on wedding days. Having a background in hospitality for 20 years Brittany began coordinating the day alongside Mark.

Awarded Best of Zola
A dear friend of ours, who happens to be a photographer, recommended This Insane Idea Photography to us for our wedding. We had been shopping around for photographers, but hadn’t found anyone offering the style and quality we wanted in our price range. When we looked through Mark’s website, we knew “that’s exactly what we want”. We made our interest known and had a quick initial chat with Mark - his charisma and openness were abundantly clear and made us comfortable being ourselves (important for candid photos!). He answered all of our questions, including his strategy for capturing our diverse crowd of guests coming to our wedding. A few months prior to our wedding, we had an engagement shoot with Mark on Princeton’s campus. He made us feel comfortable and close and had a constant stream of suggestions for poses and shots to take. We loved our Hogwarts vibes engagement shoot and getting to know Mark. On our wedding day, This Insane Idea showed up in full force with Mark, Brittany, and Tom. They were on time and high energy and knew exactly what they needed to do. We weren’t expecting to get close to our photographers, but they are simply great people and we felt like friends by the end of the day. The photos are gorgeous, candid, and true to life. We keep reviewing them to relive our wedding from a million perspectives we didn’t get to see on the day of. It’s been a joy to zoom in on the photos and appreciate the details of the day, and the expressions on our guests' faces. We will treasure these photos and the experience forever. We can’t recommend This Insane Idea highly enough, do it!

I invite you to look at my work and see why J&R videography is your best choice for capturing your special day.

Awarded Best of Zola
It’s movie magic with Jesse. He is a kind and professional videographer who has experience with a lot of events so even with unexpected things that may come up, he knows how to roll with it and capture your special moments. The quality of his equipment is unreal meaning that it is so sharp and he also has a drone. He traveled from NJ to my Brooklyn wedding and was on time. The package also came with blu-ray DVDs which had chapter bookmarks so we can go to the important moments. But the nicest personal touch was a customized USB drive he sent that had our names engraved! These pics are screenshots from our highlight film. One thing I wish I would have specified is to get more footage of our family and friends - while it was nice to have a focus on us in some moments, I wish we talked through that so I could have soaked in more but I also know the limits to having one videographer. I think he has a separate editing team especially when it’s busy season but it would have been nice to know if he wasn’t the main person stitching it together as we communicated on vision. My lesson learned is stick with the typical 2-month turnaround and don’t try to get it sooner like I did in my contract because he makes really good quality videos but it’ll take time if you want it done right. Overall, you will not regret hiring him for your wedding - you will also feel comfortable around him which is important!

We put our full trust in Alyssa and wow did she deliver! I was sincerely blown away when I walked up to my beach ceremony and even more walking into our reception room. (Her and her husband built out a stunning ceremony from start to finish on our beach in 20 mph winds!) The work they put in to make such a beautiful day.. I've never seen anything like it! They had flowers cascading from chandeliers at our reception.. it was incredible. Just let her take the wheel and you will not be disappointed. I've been to too many weddings to count and the guests were even raving about our flowers! All the Pinterest pictures in the world could not match her creative ideas and class!!! Also, the attentiveness throughout the process was unmatched. Immediately upon meeting her, we stopped looking at other florists because it couldn't get any better. Her love for flowers and people and calming demeanor - what a pleasure to see and to work with!!

The Beer Wagon Company 

5.0

  • Bar services & beverages
  • Serves Matawan, NJ

Our beer wagon is outfitted with 5 quality tap lines and a pressure system to make sure it's a perfect pour, every time, and our refrigeration unit keeps the beer well chilled. Our rental would include delivery/pick up to the event location, us setting it up on site with our standard decorations and getting your kegs inside tapped and flowing. We are not an alcohol distributor which means that you will need to provide your kegs and have them on site for us to set up.

My family loves the beer wagon so much that we’ve already used it for multiple parties! The design of the refrigeration and tap system is ingenious, sleek black exterior perfect for styling for any event theme, and Forrest and Danielle are super friendly and professional. Love this vendor and look forward to seeing them at parties all over NJ!

As Wedding Photographers we could not have asked for any better! Eva and her staff are some of the best we have ever worked with!!! Eva took us around and showed us all of the amazing options we had for photos. She even helped execute every request! The couple we had photographed for had a very very heavy wedding cake topper. It came down crashing breaking on the floor and taking off most of the top layer of the cake during toasts. Anthony ran to the rescue. He took their cake to the back. Not only did he glue their very important cake topper back together. He had resorts pastry chef fix the cake!! In our 200 plus weddings photographed. We have never seen any venue or employees go over and beyond like resorts does. To all couples BOOK THEM - you will not be disappointment with the high-end service they provide and the gorgeous venue they have!

It's taken me a couple months to write this review since getting married at Park Loft in May because I just haven't felt I had the words to adequately express how perfect this venue and their entire team was. Our wedding day exceeded even our own expectations and was absolutely flawless. I expected a little hiccup somewhere along the way, but there were none. The entire team we worked with were true professionals and had the whole process down to a tee. Our director, Allie, was beyond organized and accommodating, helping us throughout the entire planning process. Chef Thomas is incredible and so invested in ensuring all the food was delicious. Everyone who attended went out of their way to tell us it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. If you are considering booking with Park Loft, all I can say is DO IT!! You will not regret it and you and all your guests will be blown away by the all around perfection of Park Loft.

The owners are down to earth & super accommodating for all your special requests. KB re-edited our wedding video from 2021. Unfortunately , the video/ edit my husband and I received from the original company that we hired was unsatisfactory. I’ve had the raw-footage for years hoping to find a company I can trust in! KB video was willing to work with us knowing the unfortunate circumstances of our previous videos, and just wanted us happy!

My name is Stacey, I have been in the hair industry for over 20 years and having been doing bridal hair for about 15 years. Four years ago I left the salon I was working at and opened a private studio suite at Sola Salons located in Holmdel.

Stacey was so great to work with. I had to let her in on a little secret that I was having a surprise wedding and she was psyched. I showed her a photo of what I was looking for during my trial and she nailed it. She was quick which is a skill only an experienced stylist can have. I knew then I was in good hands. Of course on the day of my wedding it was very windy and raining. We took our photos on the boardwalk once the rain stopped and my hair was perfect the whole time. My curls flowed in the wind which looked great in the photos. Once we got back indoors, it was like nothing ever happened because my hair stayed in place. Stacey made it a really fun experience. I wish I could do it all again.

Let's connect through the inquiry form so we can learn more about you and discuss your wedding day in detail. We're eagerly looking forward to meeting you.

Jose at Delia Studios and Delia overall was so easy to work with. I met with multiple videographers before Delia and definitely felt the most comfortable with them and felt like we were getting a ton of videos and content for the money we were paying. Not just any videos though, ALL of our videos turned out amazing and we could not be happier. On wedding day, they were on time, so creative and got amazing footage from it. It is so clear how much pride they have in their work and I would recommend Delia to anyone. They will answer your emails quickly and it is a very personal experience. Thank you Jose and Delia team!

Hello! My name is Jeff Bien Aime I am the Founder and Lead Videographer of Flare Hill Productions. I fell in love with Wedding Filmmaking back in 2018 when I Filmed my 1st, Wedding. I remember feeling so excited but yet so nervous. After it was all I over and I delivered the Wedding Film to my client. They ended up loving it and recommending me to my next couple. Since then, I've dedicated myself and this company to creating and capturing timeless moments of our couple's special day. I realized that there's something magical about capturing the love and emotions of two people in a way that can be relived over and over again. ​

I highly recommend Jeff at Flare Hill Productions for your wedding video! He was affordable, easy to work with, communicative and flexible with any and all of our asks. He captured our day perfectly, without getting in the way or filling us with demands. He had previously worked with our photographer before as well, which we loved, making for a seamless day and amazing work environment for everyone! His work is beautiful, artistic, unique and high quality. We loved the final product and he was able to adjust the few very small things we wanted edited. He takes the time to explain decisions, changes and he is super kind to work with from start to finish! Definitely go with Jeff if you are looking for a great videographer, who fits in your budget, but creates a final masterpiece that you will love for many years to come!

Proudly celebrating all love forever & ever. I’m a documentary artist from NJ. I have a talent for making people feel comfy enough to be their authentic selves and the ability to turn that into art. My hope is that these photos make you feel seen, and like your most authentic selves. I will never take you out of the moment or stop you mid aisle to make you pose for a photo. I will, however, encourage you to live in the moment with your partner and guests. And I will document all of it.

On the day of the wedding, she was a total pro—super attentive and really took the time to understand the vibe we were going for. She gave us just the right amount of direction to make sure we looked our best, but also let us be ourselves and enjoy the day. The photos came out absolutely stunning—she perfectly captured the emotions and all the little details we wanted. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. If you’re looking for someone who’s not only talented but also makes you feel totally comfortable, Jess is your person!
