Emerson Avenue 

4.8

North Oaks, MN
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $3,500

There’s dancing in the streets of the Twin Cities! Emerson Avenue is a high-energy, horn-driven, classic rock band that hails from Minnesota’s Twin Cities. You’ll hear sounds that are heavily rooted in rock, soul, and funk, with classic tracks from bands like Earth Wind & Fire, Chicago, Aretha Franklin, Bee Gees, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Chaka Khan, Amy Winehouse, Prince, and many more!

I booked Emerson for my wedding in 2017 after finding out about them from a mutual friend. I was able to customize the songs I was interested in and they learned something new just for my reception. A year later they had an opening for a trumpet player and the rest is history!

We were placed with DJ Ryan. From the get go, Ryan was great! He contacted us within probably 2 hours of being assigned to us. After the main conversation and filling out the forms, Ryan sent us a e-mail confirming all details that we discussed, verifying playlists we gave were the correct ones he had etc. Day of wedding, Ryan transitioned very wel with us from an outdoor ceremony to a under a pavilion ceremony due to rain. Ryan did great during the reception, played wonderful music. Always kept us in the loop what was coming, checked in with us making sure everything was going as planned etc. If the rest of Bellagala DJs are like Ryan, I would HIGHLY recommend them!!

We booked Andrew Parfenov through Bellagala as our wedding photographer and couldn't be happier. We were looking for a photographer with a strong visual voice and a good mix of non-traditional/dramatic portraits and photojournalistic (candid) photos in their portfolio. Andrew brought the drama, the joy, and so much more! From the get-go, Andrew was a delight to work with - he shot our engagement photos and helped us find and arrange a venue for them - and immediately set us at ease. He goes above and beyond to get the perfect shot, the perfect lighting, the perfect pose. On our wedding day, Andrew took the lead on finding locations for photos around our venue, posing us/our bridal party/our family, and finding moments for candid shots at the reception. Multiple family members have reached out after the wedding to tell us how much they enjoyed Andrew's approach and how at ease they felt with him. If you're considering Andrew for your special occasion, book him - we can't recommend him highly enough!

the suite seat 

5.0

  • Beauty professional
  • Serves North Oaks, MN

One of my favorite parts of working with brides is putting to rest all of their fears about why they might not be able to have the style they’re envisioning to complete their look. Hair too fine, not long enough, won’t hold a curl… I’ve heard it all. And I love the look on my bride’s face when we work together to make her “impossible” vision come to life. I consider it a high honor to style a bride for a day in which she’ll be memorialized in photos for all time. When you’re in the suite seat, i promise you’ll love what you see in those photos. Enough about me. Let’s talk about your hair!

I was looking for a bridal hairstylist in the Minneapolis area on Instagram and came across Kristy’s work. I could tell from her page and our first email correspondence that she had incredible talent and true passion for what she does for brides! I cannot recommend Kristy enough! From the moment we met, she made me feel so at ease knowing she had my bridal hair under control. She was not only incredibly professional, arriving on time and fully prepared, but also super talented. My hair looked absolutely stunning and lasted the entire day and night— through the rain! She took my vision and elevated it, making me feel so confident and beautiful. If you're looking for a stylist who blends personality, professionalism, and top-notch skill, she's the one!

413 on Wacouta is such an amazing venue and it was perfect for our wedding! The building has so much character we really didn’t need to do a ton of extra decorating and just let the spaces shine. It has a very Beauty and the Beast, speakeasy vibe which made for a beautiful and romantic setting. We had a little over 100 people which I felt fit the space well.

I’m McKenzie, a photographer who embraces my couples who desire physical visual memories of their connection at any level, so you can have the stages of your relationship captured to look back on and remember all of the little things that feel so big; the way they brush your hair out of your face or beam at how beautiful you are, or even the smallest thing like a hand on your thigh. All of these things help you feel exactly how you felt in that moment. If you are here, you desire a photo gallery that makes you feel something.

I originally was using KNZ to help build my modeling portfolio. She was able to shoot every request I have asked for snd even some that i never thought of! These photos landed me a few opportunities to do runway shows at Mall of Amercia and other venues. Shot with a couple brands and companies that loved my ideal image. Later on, I ended up launching a business and needed products photos to use. So I naturally came her and let me tell you. I've never been so amazed by someones suggestions and ideas turned into realitly! Ever since then. My brand has been selling off the shelf and has been hard to keep things in stock. Thank you KNZ and please keep doing the amazing work you have been doing.

My husband and I recently used Summit Manor Reception House for our wedding reception. It was wonderful!!! The staff was friendly, helpful and professional! They did a great job keeping the events of the night flowing and moving along and we didn't have to worry about a thing! Also, the food was delicious and they had a great variety of menus to choose from. Most of all, the owner, David, was SO accommodating, flexible and helpful!!! We had several special requests and he helped us with every one of them. Also, he was very helpful in planning the entire evening and helping our vision of the evening come true!! This is a beautiful place to have a wedding reception or any special occasion. It was perfect because people could be and do whatever they wanted throughout the evening. They could be outside or on the front porch talking and enjoying the beautiful weather, in the main room dancing, upstairs playing games or downstairs at the bar enjoying a drink! Absolutely EVERYONE enjoyed themselves!! Also, the cost is VERY affordable! There are several perks like they don't charge you to cut and serve the cake, you can bring in your own alcohol and they provide all the center pieces. Plus, you don't need to decorate because it is already such a beautiful setting. I would HIGHLY recommend using Summit Manor reception house!

Kastina and her team made the wedding planning process totally stress free. She was always available for questions and felt such relief after each of our pre planning meetings because of her and her teams organization and planning skills. The day of the wedding, Kastina’s team, Lauren, Tory and Sammi, were so organized and made sure the day flowed effortlessly. I know I did not have to worry about a single thing with them around on the day of. Many of our guests commented how well the day went. One guest told me it was like watching a movie with how everything flowed together. Another guest said she had never been to a wedding where nothing went wrong. Maybe nothing went wrong and maybe something did. Bottom line was if anything did, our guests didn’t know and neither did we. For that we are grateful to this talented team! Not only are they all so very good at their jobs, but they were also very kind, supportive and positive throughout the entire day and did everything in their power to ensure the day went off without a hitch!

Like many people, I spent 10 years within corporate America and although I am thankful for my experience, it wasn't feeding my soul. I can be honest and say that I learned so much- my customer service skills, high-level organizational & strategy skills, and my overall work ethic comes directly from my experience within a regular ol' 9-5. However, I've been able to pair what I learned the last 10 years with my passion for photography, and have built this business to provide a stellar experience, the same one I would expect if I were getting married. Below I'll dive into what sets Loui apart, and I hope to hear about your upcoming day!

Meg made us feel so comfortable from the moment we met her. Our photoshoot felt like just hanging out with a friend, we were so at ease I almost forgot we were in front of a camera! If you’re looking for a photographer to make you and your partner feel special, and get some BOMB photos, I highly recommend Meg!

And let me tell you… having Jon perform at our wedding was one of the highlights of our whole day! From live music at the ceremony, to hours of live music during the reception – Jon kept everyone entertained. Our guests are still talking about how much fun they had and what a great idea it was to have live music. The price of Rock It Man versus a DJ company is very different, but we truly felt that the show, the energy, the vocals, everything we received from Rock It Man was worth every single penny.

I have always been captured by the beauty of nature and flowers. There is something miraculous and poetic in the way flowers grow out of the dirt and bring such variety and delight. ​​​​​​​​ This is why we incorporate flowers into the most pivotal moments in our lives. Flowers are symbols of all the potential in these moments; they speak to all the possibility of our lives while reminding us that, though beautiful, life is fragile. ​​​​​​​​ ​​​Participating in this language of flowers is what I love to do with Bedecked. Capturing and framing life’s significant moments with all the beauty and mystery of flowers!

Awarded Best of Zola
10/10 would recommend hiring Becca from Bedecked Florals. A little back story- I had hired a florist back in 2020 pre-pandemic-I met with her once to discuss my vision- didn't hear from that florist again until I had to reach out to her 2 months before our original date to ask if we should be meeting up again to discuss flowers.. that wedding ended up getting canceled due to covid and she ended up refunding us since our second date landed on her brothers wedding- I was pretty relieved to have the opportunity to hire someone else. It was when I hired Becca when I truly realized the bullet we dodged with our first florist. Becca was so wonderful. Her communication was incredible and she made the planning process SO much easier. She looked through my Pinterest page which had no direction at all- I liked about every type of style out there and somehow she understood the vision I could never describe to her. She would pick up on the things I liked that I wasn't able to articulate- I just knew I liked the photo I pinned but I could never pick out why I liked it. She would send me REAL options of vases to choose from and would create virtual renderings of bouquet options with the flowers she would be using. She made virtual renderings of different arrangements in my ACTUAL venue, using the tables, runners, plates, glassware, ect that I rented so I could see EXACTLY how everything would look in the space. I was AMAZED. Becca made flowers the easiest part of the planning process. Come wedding time, her execusion was FLAWLESS. So many people commented on how beautiful our flowers were- her passion and hard work really showed and she absolutely nailed it. With out pause, hiring her was one of the best decisions we made while planning our wedding!! Thank you so much Becca! You absolutely killed it!!

I've always had an interest in photography, but my passion really took off when I had my first child. There is something special about capturing children in the moments of pure joy. The special moments in people's lives, sometimes lasting only an instant, are the reason I decided to pursue a career in photography. I live for taking that perfect candid shot. Weddings, children at play, engagements, all of them offer their moments, maybe even one, that you can never get back. My goal is to always capture those moments you can look back and reflect on for a lifetime.

Jake is SOooo great to work with and I couldn’t recommend him and Two Oaks Photography more. He took our engagement photos as well and was so easy to work with, he had great ideas for poses to try and entertained all of my ideas too. I knew when I got those pics back that I definitely made the right choice for a wedding photographer! He was with us ALL DAY and night on our wedding day, going to both the bride and groom locations of getting ready and then never missed a beat all day (and night when he even took pics at the bar after the reception!!). He brought in a second photographer too which put me at ease that literally every moment of our day was being captured. Jake is the best and definitely comes highly recommended by me and my husband!!!

Born in the French Alps and growing up together with my 4 siblings, in a stone house on the side of a mountain, it wasn't difficult to be moved by the beauty that surrounded me. It wasn't long until I turned to imagery as a means of interaction with the visual world around me and to use it as a means of communication with others. I hope to use the power of the image to make a difference and be a part of something bigger than myself. Camera in hand I hope to give you a chance to share and relive your special moments of life through the images we create together. Lets make something.

Morey was awesome! He has a very calm and professional presence and we will definitely be using him again in the future. Photos that we will have in the frame for years.

Working with Terry was amazing! We had him perform at our post-wedding Saturday event. His sound and vibe was perfect for the backyard/lake setting. I had a few friends perform a few songs and he was more than willing and incredibly excited to lend his equipment and time. Everyone kept complimenting how perfect the music was for the setting. Terry is super easy to work with, quick to respond, and open to any and all requests/suggestions. Highly recommend Terry for your next event!

I also love craft beer and local coffee shops, so hit me up if you want to chill before (or after) your big day. When I’m not editing, I’m working in our veggie garden, traveling, or losing to my husband Rudy in a card game at a brewery. It’s really important to me to vibe well with the couples I work with so that we all have a blast at your wedding. We spend more time with you than just about anyone else! So shoot us a message and let’s talk!

I don’t often leave reviews, but this is truly a remarkable crew to work with. Booking with Voyageur Motion Pictures should be at the top of your “getting married” priority list. We eloped in Glacier National Park summer of 2020. The team at Voyageur Motion Pictures were the ONLY ones present for our elopement outside of my spouse and I. Having such a small group, the energy of everyone involved is incredibly important. They were so fun to be around! They made us relax and enjoy the process and we NEEDED that outside energy. We laughed SO much. We cried. We celebrated. We continue to laugh and cry watching and re-watching our videos with our friends and family. Because of the work of Voyageur Motion Pictures, we had one of the best days of our lives and we get to relive it whenever we watch our videos. After the day has come and passed, having video will mean so much to you. We cherish our videos above any photo taken that day. If you are looking for a destination wedding videographer, elopement videographer, or someone to capture your wedding celebrations, Kea and her team are exceptional. They are incredibly talented in their craft. They know how to make posing for video a natural part of the day. They are fun, vibrant humans with a gift for making you feel special. They love love.

Class Act is ready to make your day special and exceed your expectations. Check out our website and see all the by bundling discounts which will save you hundreds. You can talk to one person and plan your ceremony with our Officants and the rest of the day Class Act providing an MC/Party Coordinator with a Dj. One call, one person to plan with simple, easy and fun. Now that is Amazing

My finance’ had seen Class act at another family wedding, but it was before my time. He talked very highly about how much fun they were, but I still needed to be convinced. So we talked to them and then interviewed them and then it was very easy to decide that they were the right people for us. One of the things they let us know right off the bat was that they were working for us and even though other family members might have some ideas they would give us the final say in all matters relative to our big day. So we started out with their wedding officiant and DJ for an outdoor wedding. We wanted short, sweet and simple while having some amount of levity and romance and they delivered. The ceremony we just right. We then progressed to our social hour and dinner. Class Act moved the sound system they used for the ceremony in the outdoor dining area while keeping the larger system set up inside with the bar and dance area. The announcements came over both systems so that everyone could be part of the experience. At the diner we did some kissing games where the guests needed to entertain us and we judged their performance with the kiss. Everyone was laughing the whole time. They released tables and escorted the guests to the indoor buffet table. I cannot remember all the fun things that went on during dinner, but my guests really embraced the experience. Once the dinner was all done Class Act had the guests make two lines and we walked between them from the outside dinner tables to the dance floor then they all flowed in to watch us. We felt so special and supported. It was also brilliant because it got all the people into the dance area and the dance took off like a flash. So we danced all night it was and amazing time. Too bad I only get to do this once. Maybe we will have to have an Anniversary party. Olivia and Sam

On weekdays you can find me either at home or outside with my five year old daughter. In the evenings I am either home with my family cooking dinner together, playing games or reading. Weekends I stay busy between capturing weddings and spending time with friends and family. I shoot 35mm and 120 film as a hobby. A few other things I love: my daughter, cold coffee, plants (I have many), printed 35mm images, chocolate chip cookies, Scandinavia, rollercoasters, music, and traveling.

We couldn’t be happier with selecting NYLONSADDLE PHOTOGRAPHY for our wedding photos! Nicole did an excellent job wrangling our large family & wedding party as well as capturing all the details and the vibe that was so very us. As the bride, I missed a lot of the little details of the day and I’m so thrilled to have those captured as well as the big moments so beautifully documented. In addition to digital photos, we chose to add on a roll of film to our photos and the results were just stellar. It was perfect and we are over the moon with the results! On top of all that, Nicole was just so much fun to get to know. We would love to work with her again in the future!

I recently had my wedding at North Garden Theater and could not have been happier. This was such a gem to find. Ryan and Tina were amazing to work with, so responsive and helpful. You can tell they really care about making sure your event goes perfectly. Tables, chairs and linens came with the rental, which most places do not do. We got to customize the lighting, the dance party lighting (which is extensive with fog machine!), and the entire layout. They have a bar onsite and the cocktails were great! They were able to serve our guests very quickly. We used multiple Spotify playlists for our music and Ryan was on point switching between them at the right times. The facilities were amazing too; large dressing room to get ready, and nice big bathrooms that they continually cleaned throughout the night. They are also big on reducing waste so we were able to use all compostable cups, which we also had our caterer use all compostable plates and silverware. I really do not have enough great things to say about Ryan, Tina and NGT; they made such a magical day for us!!!

I'm a love-obsessed individual whose passion and joy come from telling visual stories. I use a natural approach to photograph every smile, tear, and embrace shared on your special day.

We couldn't be happier with our photos from Bethany! Not only did she bring wonderful energy to our day, but she managed to get every photo we hoped for on our list and more. On a day that could have been stressful and overwhelming, Bethany was a positive and focused presence, and made all of our family and friends super comfortable. We knew we loved Bethany's Kodak-inspired aesthetic, and were so excited when we got our gallery full of timeless, romantic, and beautiful photos. She also turned around a mini gallery for us right away, so we could share highlights with those who couldn't be there on the day. We recommend Bethany to all the engaged couples we know, because she's not only a talented photographer, but someone who really cares about capturing the memories of your special day.
