Paige and Holly were a dream to work with! Music and dancing was one of the highest priorities for our wedding. Paige and Holly understood my vision and music taste immediately, and we knew we could trust them for an incredible party. They took all of my favorite songs and wielded them expertly to keep the dance floor packed all night --- from Stevie Nicks to Chappell Roan. Our wedding night wouldn't have been the same without them, and I wish I could relive that dance floor a million times over. We have gotten countless compliments on our wedding music and how much fun our guests had. I am so jealous that you, the prospective client, have the opportunity to book Paige & Holly for a future event. I truly can't hype them up enough.

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500

Hello, my name is DJ Joey B. My job is to make your next event, One To Remember! I do not scratch, I just play the best music tailored to your event. I have been DJing professionally since 2005. I have had the opportunity to DJ all types of events. I got my start while I was working for Pearson Music Company. While there I was learning about live sound setups and DJ setups. I made friends with many of the local DJ’s in the area. They told me I should put my love of music together with my knowledge of sound equipment and bring music to the masses.

Awarded Best of Zola
Joey was great all-around. He was super personable from the get-go which is one of the main reasons we chose him. We were doing a Halloween costume wedding and he was happy to dress up in a costume as well and be a part of it all. He had great suggestions before and during the event in regards to our playlists as well as interactions with the guests. He did an awesome job taking our song list and mixing it so that we got all the best parts of songs and moving from one to another before it felt too long or hit parts that were too long/repetitive. I'd definitely hire him again and we had multiple guests compliment him after the event. A.

Growing weary in the search for the right photographer? Maybe interactions are feeling kinda transactional, you just can't picture yourself in the galleries you're seeing, or you're tired of hearing we all love pizza, margs, and wine nights? Now I don't want to start of this relationship with a lie...I honestly love those things too. BUT, as you search for the right person to capture your loved ones, your growing kiddos, or your big day, who can blame you for wanting to connect a little deeper?

Nicki is phenomenal!! We are SO lucky to have found her. Our photos are absolutely amazing. Nicki has been kind and patient with us throughout this entire process. We have even hired her for our professional headshots… and we probably will for every event! Thank you Nicki!!!!

Fancy This Photography

Durham, NC
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,500

At Fancy This Photography, my goal is to capture the essence of who you are on the most important day of your life. When I got married, my first concern with hiring a photographer is that they understood the fun and unique side of who I was, and could capture that. I want the same thing for you. My passion is working with couples who want something a bit out of the ordinary for their wedding. The couple that’s real, the one who’s willing to be exactly who they are. The one who puts their relationships as top priority, and who want the people who are most special to them in the world to witness the joy of their wedding.

Fancy This Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, Amanda Law and her team were incredibly professional, individualized, and reliable in their communication style. The quality of their work was truly stunning - they captured the essence of our special day perfectly. The two photographers felt like friends we would have invited to the wedding anyway, and they were so fun to work with. They developed a great timeline for photography to ensure all of the photos we wanted were captured. Highly recommend Amanda Law and the whole Fancy This Photography group - we hope they like us because we are hiring them for all of our life events!

We’ve had the pleasure of being guests at a wedding for which Alex was the DJ, as well as having him DJ our wedding! Both were an absolute blast. Incredible value for the experience and everything included. Alex did music, microphones, and lights for our ceremony and reception. From when we first reached out, everything was incredibly easy, and we never had any doubt Alex had all our needs covered. He listened well to our vision for the day and fulfilled it perfectly, along with filling in any gaps to match our vibe for the portions of the day where we didn’t have specific music requests. He was a great MC, and everything flowed smoothly all day with no hiccups. We wanted our reception to be an energetic dance party, and that’s exactly what we got! The dance floor was packed the entire night. We’re still getting comments about how much fun people had at our wedding which brings us so much joy!

Amy Ellis Photography

Durham, NC
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500

This storyteller believes that your wedding day shouldn't feel like a photo shoot, but should be full of genuine moments that are unique to your love story. As a fly on the wall with a photojournalist style, I am less concerned about "blog worthy" shots and more about the candids that show who you are and who you love. I find importance in preserving fleeting moments and the importance of printing photos, not just letting them live in an online gallery.

From our first call with Amy, we were impressed by her warmth, timely responses, and detail-oriented communication style. On the day of our wedding, Amy and her team seamlessly blended into the background, capturing all the candid, in-between moments that we will cherish forever. Amy made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, and we hardly even noticed her taking photos - yet the final results were nothing short of extraordinary. The 50 (!!) preview photos she provided just days after our wedding were a wonderful surprise, and we are thrilled with the quality and value of their work (she even edited out a scrape I had from running). We cannot recommend Amy highly enough to any couple looking for a talented and professional photograger to help make their special day truly unforgettable.

I travel worldwide to provide makeup services to my brides. I consider myself to be the bride's makeup artist. Brides hire me to create the precise bridal makeup look that they have envisioned their entire lives.

Hello Tiwa, I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the incredible job you did as my makeup artist on my wedding day. Your skill and artistry not only made me feel incredibly beautiful but also played a significant role in making my day truly special. From the moment I sat in your chair until the final brushstroke, you exhibited a level of professionalism and creativity that left me in awe. Your attention to detail and your ability to enhance my natural beauty while still making me feel like myself were truly remarkable. More than just the makeup, your presence and calming demeanor throughout the wedding preparations were a source of comfort and reassurance for me. You helped create a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere during a day that can sometimes be filled with nerves and excitement. You went above and beyond in making me feel and look my best, and I am immensely grateful for your talent and dedication. Your work not only made me feel confident but also contributed significantly to the overall beauty and magic of the day.

Wishing you continued success in your career, and I hope our paths cross again in the future. I really would like to see you again as well, and hopefully we can set up a lunch date or just hang out, but you will forever be my go to for a makeover. I will be leaving reviews and tagging your business in all my posts, and I would love to review your services for other brides looking for MUA. With heartfelt thanks and warm regards, Donna Porch

I’m Tammy Jean Lamoureux, artist, partner, mother, photographer. In the twenty years that I’ve been taking pictures, photography has been my tool for seeing beauty in the everyday. My hope is to document the biggest moments of people’s lives while also illuminating those small moments of magic that hide in plain sight. The poetry of life is everywhere, and I try to create honest, heartfelt photographs that help us carry a little of that beauty along with us. I believe in the joy of improvisation, the tenderness in awkward moments, and photographs as time machines. Your moments are so precious. I’d be honored to document them.

I cannot say enough good things about working with Tammy! In addition to being so kind, professional, and easy to work with, the quality of her work speaks for itself. Tammy is truly an artist. The photos we received from our engagement shoot and wedding are more than we could have hoped for. Her work captures the beauty in the small moments throughout the day in addition to the big ones. These small moments helped to tell such an intimate story of our wedding day and are some of the photos that I treasure the most! Tammy made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She provided a perfect balance of subtle guidance while also allowing us to interact in a way that felt natural to us, resulting in photos that really captured our personalities and relationship. When planning our wedding, we knew that the decision of booking a photographer was one of the most important that we would make, and I am so grateful that we made the decision to go with Tammy. I would 100% work with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer in NC! P.s. wanted to give a special shout out to her black and white photos! She is truly a magician at editing.

You're already beautiful, I'll just help you shine!

Theresa did an absolutely incredible job with make-up on my wedding day! She worked alone and was able to do make-up for myself, 2 bridesmaids, and 2 mothers all before it was time for photos! Not only that, but she did an incredible job and all 5 of us were so happy with the looks she gave us. From the beginning, I loved the way she highlighted someone's natural beauty with make-up. I loved the look she did for me because it was very natural, yet made me feel bridal and beautiful and put together! She prepped the skin beforehand and everything was very soothing and clean feeling! (I have very sensitive skin and was concerned about this, but it was no problem for her at all, and my skin felt so fresh and like it was glowing!). All of her make-up also felt very light and effortless - I could barely tell I was wearing make-up and the lashes also did not bother me. Also, I cried a majority of the day, and despite that fact the make-up lasted all throughout the day and night!! She was very kind all throughout the day, and made casual conversation with all of us - we all felt comfortable with her! I highly recommend Theresa for all your make-up needs on your wedding day, prom, or other event! She is wonderful! Thank you, Theresa, for everything!

  • Offers 4 services

Being able to work together is such a blessing. We have over two decades of experience in the Event Planning and Management industry but nothing compares to the joy we feel doing this as business owners! We pride ourselves on remaining dedicated from inception to final breakdown. As a Mother and Daughter duo, we've found a way to bring the perfect balance to each other and our business. Faith and family are our pillars and we let that guide us through each event. So much so that we're still in touch with so many of our past clients and get to enjoy their life's triumphs even though our "work" with them ended long ago.

My now husband and I had the best experience working with Divine Designs. We had an issue with our initial venue and had to find another location fast! They not only found another venue, but moved all the vendors and the new location was amazing! The decorations they provided were beautiful. Such a great mother daughter team! Start to finish 10/10 service!

Venue considerations

  • Dance floor not included
  • Large venue, not ideal for small guest lists
  • No all-inclusive dining options
We had booked this venue under another management company and I think that's a really important preface - the venue had not been managed for seven months when we arrived so of course it wasn't perfect and there were some issues. None of this was the fault of the new management, who went above and beyond to help us to have a wonderful event. The estate is VAST, there is so much room for a large luxury event here, and plenty of guest space too. It really is a beautiful place for a wedding or special event with a ton of amazing places for stunning photographs.

P & L Creates Art 

5.0

Durham, NC
  • Caterer

Welcome! I'm Chef Sakinah. I have worked in the food and beverage industry professionally for nearly a decade and counting. Throughout my career, I've worked in various restaurants across New Jersey, New York City, Florida, North Carolina, and California. With this exposure, I've learned many different styles, cuisines, and techniques of cooking, and from many executive head chefs. Managing and handling all facets of the kitchen, is also my expertise. Graduating from one of the top Culinary Arts Schools in the United States, I earned my A.A.S Degree in Culinary Arts, and Serv Safe/State Food Safety Certificate.

We recently had the pleasure of using P & L Creates Art for a private event with about 100 guests, and we couldn’t be happier with the service. The sushi was a standout—beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The variety and quality of the sushi, along with the rest of the menu, exceeded our expectations, everything ran smoothly. I highly recommend P & L Creates Art for any event. Thank you for making our evening memorable!

Arsalan Abbasi Photography 

5.0

Durham, NC
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200

My name is Arsalan — "RC" for short. Over many years, I have honed an appreciation for the textures of every day life: shadows shifting with time, the subtle glimpse of emotion in someone's face, or a dapple of light on concrete. Trained as an architect, I approach photography through the same lens with which I view the built world – with a thoughtful eye for light, composition, and poetry. Photography, to me, is about eternalizing this beauty, so that we can keep a little of its magic with us.

I absolutely recommend working with RC. From the moment we booked, RC was kind of and conscientious. He perfectly balanced keeping our spirits high while also being authoritative to make sure our wedding photos could go off without a hitch. Almost all of our family members mentioned to us how impressed they were with RC’s efficiency throughout our wedding. He was well-organized, communicative, and had a great vision for our photos. I would work with him again in a heartbeat!
