In addition to fueling the dance-floor and and crafting ambiance through music, the DJs also serve as MCs with natural ease and charisma.

My husband and I had been to several weddings with Ace Wedding DJs as a vendor, and several without. Let me tell ya, there is a big difference! We knew we needed Ace Wedding DJs for our wedding this past June and they did not disappoint! Our lead DJ, Avery Echols worked closely with our other vendors to make the night run so smoothly. My husband and I truly did not have to think about anything and could just enjoy the night! Avery also CRUSHED the vibes!! After letting him know our top priority was making it a party and ensuring our guests had fun, he kept the dance floor packed all reception. Our booking coordinator, Wes Echols, was also great to communicate with. He always had very quick responses, provided us with a comprehensive and thoughtful questionnaire for the ceremony and reception, and was overall very helpful. We could not recommend Ace Wedding DJs more!!

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.

We couldn't be more thrilled with our experience with Kelly! We booked her for our destination wedding in Punta Cana and everything was smooth sailing. She was incredibly kind, professional, and made the entire process low stress. You can tell she is experienced with destination weddings and was able to work well with the resort staff, including their videographer, and work around their schedules as needed. All of our guests kept commenting on how wonderful she was at capturing shots and just as a person! The photos are absolutely perfect! She captured every moment beautifully, and we received our pictures back so quickly, which was such a pleasant surprise. Communication was always easy, and she was so responsive to any questions or requests we had leading up to and after the wedding. We truly feel so lucky to have had her as part of our big day.

Hi there! My name is Carly, I’m a traveling wedding hair stylist based near Grand Rapids, MI. I specialize is airy, romantic, effortless updos and down styles. I strive to make everyone in my chair feel confident and beautiful.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am ecstatic about my experience with Carly as our hairstylist for my wedding! She is an absolute angel and exceeded every expectation I had as well as my bridal party! From the very beginning, she was nothing but amazing! She was super flexible with scheduling a hair trial for both my mom and I, especially since I live out of state! Carly’s work is absolutely phenomenal, she can do whatever you desire when it comes to hair! I wanted my hair down for the wedding and to have that “blowout” look. She recommended and advised me at my hair trial that it would fall pretty quickly if she did that so we ended up doing a bit tighter curls that would fall and give me more of a looser curl throughout the day. I valued her honest opinion and she did a phenomenal job at achieving the look I wanted! All of my bridal parties hair looked absolutely stunning! Carly is so professional while still maintaining such a fun and comfortable atmosphere for everyone! She made sure to take the time to talk with each girl about what hairstyle they wanted and gave them exactly what they asked for or what she recommended. She is such a kind, beautiful, and easy-going person!I was very impressed with all of her work, she’s the hairstylist QUEEN, and it was an amazing experience to work with her! I will definitely be recommending her to anyone and everyone, so stop what you’re doing right now and book with Carly! You won’t regret it one bit!

Dani shot our engagement session in Indiana (where we live) and our elopement in Colorado. We vetted SO.MANY photographers and the long search ended up with Elle & Co Photography and we are elated with our choice! Dani's professionalism is top-notch and she's also so fun to be around. She has a talent with her profession but her passion puts her over the edge. Dani's knowledge for locations helped us nail down the perfect elopement spot. She also nailed down our vision for our engagement session location; she is well versed in locations all around and we were thankful for all the help in planning that. The day of our elopement had unpredictable weather and I didn't want to get wet and be rained on. Dani was able to execute a plan for us to elope later in the day without any stress or hassle. She had new timeline and plans over to us immediately so we could have the perfect outside elopement and the day turned out amazing! Jed (her PHENOMENAL second hand man) brought & put up a pop up changing tent for us so I didn't have to hike in my dress the whole time. Our elopement was everything we wanted and more thanks to Dani & Jed & Elle & Co Photographer. Thank you forever!

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.

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!

Hey there, I’m Lauren! I’m a wedding and boudoir photographer based in Grand Rapids, MI. I believe your photos should feel like you—natural, honest, and full of emotion. No stiff posing here—just real, unscripted moments that tell your story. I’ll help you feel confident and comfortable, whether it's your wedding day, a boudoir session, or a just-because adventure. Outside of photography, I’m usually hiking, doing Jiu-Jitsu, or traveling with my wife. Let’s create something timeless and unforgettable together!

We started our relationship with Lauren in the fall of 2023 as we planned our destination wedding for May 2024. From the beginning Lauren was communicative, kind and excited. We were able to connect with Lauren for an engagement shoot in Ann Arbor and received our photos so quickly we were able to use them to build our website and invites. Additionally, I gifted my husband a boudoir photo album on the day of the wedding and she was wonderful to work with. Needless to say, by the time we traveled for our wedding we were so comfortable it was like having a close friend do our shoot. Now we have our walls decorated with the most beautiful photos as we approach our first anniversary. We would recommend working with Lauren to anyone

I struggled to find a HMUA that would accommodate me and my small wedding party but these girls made my Matron of Honor and I feel just as important regardless of that. My bridal makeup was something I was very particular of out of all the many details that go into planning, and Reina absolutely nailed it. Both ladies were on time, efficient and so kind to us. Our hair and makeup lasted all day through the tears, strong wind and hours of dancing. I can not thank them enough for being such an important part of my day.

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
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 :)

I LOVE, LOVE. IT’S QUITE SIMPLE REALLY. THE BEST MOMENTS ARE UNPREDICTED, CANDID AND RAW. WHEN LAUGHTER IS SO STRONG THAT YOUR BELLY ACHES, OR WORDS ARE SO SWEET THAT TEARS ARE MADE.. CREATING MAGIC WITH HUMANS WHO SEE LOVE AND LIGHT AS POWERFULLY AS I DO… THAT’S WHAT I LIVE FOR.

My experience with Lexi Lauren Photography for my wedding was beyond amazing. She is so great at making the photos fun and directing for the best results. She gets tons of great photos that it makes it impossible to pick a favorite. She is easy to schedule times with and communicates well via email and phone. The day of the wedding she made sure to get the photos we asked while also allowing us enough time to mingle during cocktail hour. She helped keep our flow during the wedding day and optimize time. We loved receiving the Polaroids at the end of the night and our sneak peeks from our wedding day came quickly and we have already received so many compliments! I will continue to use her for future family sessions and would recommend her for any situation but especially for weddings.

Granger Creative is a full-service production company specializing in weddings/couples and branding. I’ve been working in the film + media industry for 5+ years and have loved every minute of it! I believe that there’s as much meaning and beauty in the subtle and intimate as there is in the grand and exciting. The films I create tend to be nostalgic and cinematic mixed with a documentary approach. My hope is that we can be a team, bringing your memories and emotions to life. Let’s create something together!

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. We also purchased the raw footage and she organized it on a flashdrive. We are so thankful to have this footage to look back on! Her style of videography and editing is incredible and beautiful. We would not have asked for a better videographer for our wedding. We are forever grateful.
