Hi, there! I am Allie, an internationally published fine art photographer. What's unique to my craft is the focus on small details to tell the complete story of your love. From your candid laughs together to the way your grandmother's eyes well with tears when she sees you walk down the aisle - no detail is too small. We’ve had so many sweet couples from around the world trust us - from our own backyard in MN to the Coasts & even Internationally. I've had the honor of being nominated as the Top 3 Photographers in MN & the experience of photographing over 150 weddings. But each feels completely unique & gives me the joy of butterflies

My husband and I are so grateful that we hired Alexandra Robyn Photography for our wedding! Allie was so kind and professional. She added so many personal touches to the experience, and she made me and my husband feel so comfortable throughout the day. Also the photos turned out incredible. Above and beyond our expectations.

Maurissa is such an amazing human being! We could not have asked for anyone better to be our wedding photographer! We knew we loved her the minute we met her for our engagement session last winter. She is very outgoing, friendly and honest! She has been very responsive in communication from the beginning. Maurissa goes above and beyond just being a photographer. She made sure everything was lined up, provided a timeline for all the vendors, made sure to get every "must have" photo. Maurissa also helped make sure we enjoyed OUR day. I was very worried about the timeline and being behind on everything but she made sure to remind me that there is no timeline and this was our special day so anything we wanted she would make happen and the guests would be okay entertaining themselves until we were ready! We also got our sneak peaks back already and are so obsessed and cannot wait to see the rest. Maurissa will definitely be showing up in our future because we love her!!

Tracy & Kyle are fantastic artists and teammates! They made our wedding experience such a fun journey every step of the way and we were blown away by how fantastic all of our photos turned out in both our engagement and wedding day photos. We met with them in-person twice for consultations and felt so comfortable talking with them and sharing our experiences as fellow wedding-industry workers. The rate at which we received our photos after our engagement shoot and our wedding was perfect! They sent a few samples that showed the quality and attention to detail, and the remaining complete albums were sent within a week! So fast but so much attention to detail and great editing. We also loved their blog posts as a way to share photos with friends and family and we enjoyed browsing other couples' albums as well! As a same-sex mixed race couple, we really appreciated their wide portfolio of diverse couples of LGBTQIA and BIPOC clients.

We specialize in making your wedding day the most epic celebration ever since 1998! Our passion for excellence is what sets us apart from the rest. We don’t do boring here – our tailored approach means that we cater to your unique style and preferences, creating a wedding that’s as unique as you are making it the most unforgettable experience imaginable. We provide a professional and polished performance that will keep your guests on the dance floor all night long. A DJ Sound Productions wedding is what every Bride desires! So what are you waiting for? Let’s create the wedding of your dreams and make it a party that nobody will ever forget!

10 out of 10 recommend! I want to start off by saying that I am a very type A bride but also a big DIYer and music fanatic. All of that makes me a difficult person to please but this team did it! I spent months planning every detail of my wedding, down to choreographer-like timing on my music and I won’t lie, when I tried to plan details with them months before and was told they prefer to discuss details the week of the wedding (so that details are ACTUALLY finalized), I was a bit stressed. However, all of my stress, worry, and fears melted away after an early on problem solving call with Ben, a very detail-oriented call with Luke the week of the wedding, and of course, our wonderful DJ Josiah putting in the time and effort to make sure he and I were on the same page with all of my very specific requests and overly detailed information! I would highly recommend DJ Sound Productions & Entertainment to anyone for all of your DJing needs! This is a pretty long review, but this team is well deserving of all of these words! Like I mentioned above, I am a challenge to please, especially when it comes to a day as important as my wedding day and for me, music being one of the most important components of the day. If you’re like me, book this team and rest assured, because DJ Sound Productions & Entertainment executed my wishes down to the smallest details and Josiah was the literal BEST! Thank you so much for making my music dreams come true!

Dakota Layne Photography

  • Serves Mendota, MN

I am the heart and soul behind Dakota Layne Photo. Based in western Wisconsin, my love for photography started as a seven-year-old girl as the flower girl in a family wedding and has now become an extension of who I am. I approach my clients from a place of empathy - understanding who they are, what is important to them, and how I can bring their story to life in a significant and meaningful way.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment I inquired with Dakota, she was prompt. We instantly jumped on a call and we literally talked for a hour! I instantly knew she was going to be our photographer! Throughout the planning process, she consistently reached out to check in. Her thoughtful and uplifting voice messages were such a light midst the stresses of wedding planning. I would get so excited when I saw her name pop up on my phone, her bubbly personality and genuine care in her messages meant everything to us!! Our engagement photo day was a scorcher--95 degrees and pure sun!! But Dakota made the absolute best of it, even as we took breaks to cool down. Despite the sweat and crazy heat, our photos turned our magazine worthy--seriously stunning!! In the weeks leading up to the wedding she checked in almost daily, which was so reassuring. Her online website and questionnaire were very thorough and incredibly helpful. At one point, I even called her to vent about a difficult wedding situation (that had nothing to do with her), and she listened and reassured me through it all! She is truly a wedding industry professional!! On our wedding day, her presence was incredibly pleasant and everything flowed perfect. We fell a bit behind due to hair and makeup, and she continued to reassure me that we would be just fine. Her photography style is absolutely stunning, with great attention to detail that captured every important moment for us. We received our sneak peeks just a day or two after the wedding which was one of my favorite memories ever!!-- getting to reminisce on the stunning photos with my now husband on our first day of our honeymoon. It meant the world to us! The full gallery was delivered within the timeframe discussed in our contract as promised, I even had a few questions about different angles and additional photos and she delivered on all of my requests. Her gallery website was very easy to use and share. Overall we had a 1000/10 experience with having Dakota as our wedding photographer. Not only is she an incredibly talented photographer, but she is also so personable and was one of the best decisions and investments we have ever made! When it is your special day, you want to be surrounded by the absolute best, and that is Dakota!!

I also sent her some color swatches and she nailed the colors! The pick up process was quick and smooth as well! If you are on the fence on who should do your cake you NEED to pick Katie!

Kris and Glen were absolutely amazing to work with! I originally planned a winter wedding, but due to the pandemic we canceled the wedding and rebooked at the Gardens of Castle Rock so we could move up the wedding date and do everything outdoors. I had 2 months to plan an entire wedding. To say I was stressed and overwhelmed would be an understatement. I called and emailed Kris an absurd amount of times DAILY asking questions, voicing concerns with how to handle a wedding during a pandemic, and asking for vendor recommendations. My calls and emails were met with nothing but kindness, patience, and compassion. A level of customer service I didn't even know existed anymore. My calls were 99% time answered immediately by Kris and if I did leave a voicemail my call was returned within 2 hours. All my emails were answered within hours. I will for ever be grateful for all the help and kindness I received during my wedding planning from the team at The Gardens of Castle Rock. The day of the wedding everything looked amazing and was set up exactly as discussed. You MUST tour this venue in person. The pictures online do not do it justice! If you are even the tiniest bit interest schedule a tour! The day of the wedding all the guests could talk about was how amazing the venue was and were still hearing about it weeks after. The venue is gorgeous during the day but it's especially magical once it gets dark and the whole venue including the parking lot is lit up with garden lights. There is absolutely nothing I would change about this venue.

With the wood details and black and white accents, the venue provides the perfect backdrop for your special day. We were thrilled with the addition of the dock and the pergolas in the back patio. Our outdoor ceremony by the lake was beautiful. The Bridal & Groom suites were terrific, I loved that the Groom suite had a golf simulator – it kept the guys entertained while they waited!

Jasmine is a California born and bred photographer with over 7 years of experience shooting weddings. While on lockdown in March of 2020, she met a photojournalist from Minnesota named Jacob. After years of watching Jasmine in the business, Jacob joined as a wedding videographer to put his experience as a storyteller to work. We now travel as a couple to capture love across the states, no travel fees wherever your wedding is.

Jasmine and Jacob were a DREAM to work with the day of our wedding. We told them what our vision was and they above and beyond delivered. My husband and I are both very awkward people who hate having our pictures taken/posing, and we did not feel posed for a single moment. It felt like they weren’t even there. The products themselves are unbelievable. Our vision was brought to life exactly, better than we had hoped, and we have not stopped getting compliments on the photos. I’d like to add - Jasmine also did our engagement photos, and a boudoir photo shoot (for me) on top of the wedding and she delivers every. Single. Time. I genuinely could not recommend these two enough!

Ari Reynolds Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Serves Mendota, MN

Before venturing out as Ari Reynolds Photography, my job was to do sales and operations for 700 Weddings and Events each year. With each wedding my knowledge and passion continues to grow. My dad would tell me, "Go make a new friend today." and that is exactly what I do with every client. Celebrate with you like you are my best friend! On your wedding day you can trust that I am going to know your wants and wishes, making it so I can help you navigate through the process. Once we have the vision, I make that dream wedding become a reality.

Omg Ari is a life saver. She is without a doubt the only reason our wedding day went smoothly. She knows what she is doing and she helped me with more than I thought a photographer would. That shows how much she cares about making the photos look good for her clients. Also, her personality is amazing. Even this introvert could vibe and not feel uncomfortable. Meaning I know my photos are going to look more natural. 110% recommend.

The end results were absolutely delicious and beautifully decorated. Our guests loved being able to try multiple tiny cupcakes in different flavors. Despite creating such customized and high-quality baked goods, Sweet Kneads provided great value for the cost.

Danielle is absolutely amazing! She is everything you'd want in a wedding photographer and more. We went with Danielle for both our engagement and wedding photos, and I couldn't have asked for better pictures. We received our wedding sneak peeks the same weekend, and it was amazing to see her work with such a quick turnaround. She is creative, great to work with, easy to communicate with, and does an excellent job of organizing big groups and making everyone feel comfortable. I would recommend Danielle over and over again for any event!

We are a personalized Wedding DJ company based out of Becker Mn. We help you plan your wedding from day one. Our goal is to have you trust our DJ 100% BEFORE your wedding day. Then of course rock the party at your wedding.

Nicholas Thomas Entertainment was fantastic to work with for our wedding! Their communication throughout the planning process was exceptional - they were always checking in to see if we had any questions or needed help with anything music-related. On the day of our wedding, their DJ was so in tune with our favorite songs and kept the dance floor packed all night long. The only minor downside was that our social hour location wasn't able to have music, but overall their service and value was fantastic. I'd give them a 9/10 rating and highly recommend them to any couple looking for a top-notch wedding entertainment team.

DJ Services By Paul Young 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $695
  • Serves Mendota, MN

I’ve done over 3000 weddings, and this experience pays off in many ways, from musical knowledge to skills required to mix the music in exciting ways. As I “read the room” I take requests, and time the playing of each track based on YOUR taste in music- I guarantee to follow your “must play” list, “do not play” list. Unlimited, personal planning time is included with me, personally, who will be your actual DJ (not a subcontractor).

Awarded Best of Zola
Paul was very communicative and friendly. He was very helpful in planning the whole day! We booked him for the ceremony and reception and he did a great job! He was also very flexible when my anxiety as the bride decided to change a couple things up last minute and not do the shoe game and move up the first dance. He took requests and even played songs that I didn't even know existed when he was asked. My husband and I asked for a specific song that meant a lot to us and he even was able to play that, even though the band is a small Minnesota band. His pricing is also very reasonable and I heard he was better than other DJs that have higher price points. Definitely recommend him!

Working with Alyssa was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! From the engagement pictures (that she got back to us in less than 24 hrs) to planning out every detail in the timeline to capturing the most beautiful photos on the big day, Alyssa was absolutely amazing! And everyone who interacted with her at our wedding agreed! She captured all the photos I was hoping for and then found time to grab more that I didn’t think we’d be able to get. She was game to take a trolley ride with us and just let us soak in the whole day while capturing every beautiful moment! I can’t recommend her enough!

Alec & Megan were seriously the best! Alec did an amazing job at capturing our day and even showed us a sneak peak of some footage he got during our reception with a teaser of our first look the morning after our wedding. We had so much fun with them and appreciated the energy they had. Megan is your biggest hype woman! She literally helped me with whatever throughout the day including getting in my dress before the wedding and again out of my dress at the reception. She also tookbehind the scenes footage with her phone and my Polaroid, and so many other things the list goes on. My husband and I couldn’t stop talking about happy we put our trust in them for our day and how genuine they both are and how happy we were for booking not only a videographer but Beyond the Pines to capture our special day.

Hi there - I'm Karlie! I am a published, traveling wedding photographer based in Florida and Minnesota. Capturing weddings, elopements and engagements anywhere and everywhere is my specialty alongside the love of my life Rylee (my business partner and videographer too!). We wholeheartedly believe in documenting memories full of color, Jesus, laughter and adventure through both photography and videography. When working with us you get so much more than a photographer - we are your wedding guides, hiking buddies, and lifetime friends! (Seriously, we are in this for the long haul!)

The quality of her work is simply stunning - her photos are colorful, timeless, candid, and beautifully captured every special moment. Karlie not only took amazing photos, but she also helped us stay on track with our wedding timeline.

Hello! My name is Hope and as the owner I’d love to welcome you to Golden Garden Blooms. I’m so happy that you’re here! As someone who’s been immersed within the wedding world since 2020 and the garden space since I can remember, I’ve gotten to witness the beauty and joy that flowers bring to not only special events but everyday life.

Hope is so great to work with! I book special events in our off season for a small venue space and we brought Golden Garden Blooms in to guide a floral arrangement class/activity to accompany our Mother’s Day brunch. The event ran so smoothly- easy to plan with her, she was very knowledgeable, and the guests had so much fun. Our guests told us how wonderful the experience was and how beautiful the florals were. Will be planning future events with GGB!
