Abigail Saalfrank Photography 

5.0

Fort Wayne, IN
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

Abby wasn’t able to travel to my wedding but she sent her assistants and she edited the photos. It went absolutely perfect. The photos were beautiful and I got so many meaningful photos with my family and his family that I wouldn’t have thought to get. I sent her draft of a timeline and the photographers printed it out and had it to make sure the photos I wanted got done. They were absolutely amazing. Thank you so much to Abby and her team.

AJS Photo 

5.0

Fort Wayne, IN
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

My name is Abby, a Midwest based wedding + boudoir photographer who's really obsessed with her job. I've gotten to see how directly photos can impact people. As we grow up, we realize how priceless photos are and how quality pictures become prized possessions. It's a moment in time you can forever look back on. It's easy to take pictures, but it's hard to capture moments. I'll love making magic with you, because everyone has some magic in them that deserves to be celebrated.

Absolutely thrilled with our experience with AJS Photography! While my spouse wasn't initially keen on the idea of having engagement photos taken, Abby made us both feel at ease and captured genuine, candid moments (even in freezing temperatures). During our meeting before the big day, we mentioned to Abby that we wanted our photos to feel genuine, romantic, and fun! Abby captured every detail, emotion, and memory on our wedding day! On our big day, Abby was our hype woman and major helper. We loved taking home poloroids thanks to Abby from our engagement session and our wedding day. Abby walked into a low-lit venue she had never seen in person and still delivered unique and stunning wedding photos that exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend for couples with varying preferences - Abby delivers magic for everyone!

Maia Wachter-Harpist 

5.0

Fort Wayne, IN
  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $500

Hi everyone! My name is Maia (she/her) Music has been in my life for as long as I can remember. I decided the summer before senior year of high school that I wanted to try out a harp lesson, and ever since that day, I haven’t looked back! In my 13 years of study, I have primarily learned from Elizabeth LeBlanc. I also attended two summers at Rocky Mountain Springs Harp Program, where I studied with Kathryn Harms. I have been very fortunate to have wonderful teachers who got me where I am today! Outside of my musical background , my degree is in Early Childhood Education. I am luck to work in both the childcare and music fields!

Awarded Best of Zola
Maia is a fabulous player and a joy to work with. She’s professional, timely, and fun. She communicates well and she does so much to make sure the music she’s playing is just perfect for the event. I’ve worked with her on several events and each one, she was well prepared, enthusiastic, and just a joy to work with. I’ve since moved away, otherwise I would plan to continue to work with her for a long time to come. That said, if you’re looking for a harpist for ANY event you might need, Maia is a wonderful choice for any Indiana, Michigan, or Ohio weddings or events!

Day 1 Wedding Coordinating

Fort Wayne, IN
  • Planner
  • Offers 2 services
  • Starts at $1,550

Day 1 specializes in "day-of" coordinating, but this includes guidance and support leading up to your wedding, timeline creation, talking with wedding vendors, and all those miscellaneous tasks that come up on the wedding day!

Lori did an incredible job coordinating our wedding, and ensured that our special day went exactly how we dreamed it would go. Not only was she a fantastic communicator, but she took the time to get to know my husband and I during the entire process from the initial meeting to after the reception. Lori’s experience and her ability to always put us first made our day next-level special. Our wedding day was perfect, but Lori‘s fantastic work really made the day that much more picture perfect. Any chance we get, we love to recommend Day 1 Wedding Coordinating for coordinating services. Lori and the rest of the Day 1 staff truly treat your special day like it is their own and will go above and beyond to make sure you are taken care of.

Alomar Entertainment

Fort Wayne, IN
  • DJ

Randy started the company in northeastern Pennsylvania in 1993 and started DJing events when he was 17. While in college, he worked at multiple radio stations and in 1999, Randy moved to Fort Wayne, IN and took an on-air position at WJFX Hot 107.9 & has been on several stations since. He & the team have DJ'd thousands of events now for over 27 years! Alomar Entertainment is known for their professionalism, communication and the ability to get a party started and keep it going! Their infectious personalities, enthusiasm and music knowledge make any event unforgettable!

We had been to many wedding where Alomar Entertainment was the DJ, and always had so much fun! So we knew as soon as we got engaged, we had to book them ASAP for our wedding! Jesse did an unbelievable job! He took time out of his busy week night to talk our wedding night expectations over with us in detail. He was so kind, easy to talk to, and made us feel like we were the only ones in the world who mattered. He clearly wanted to do everything he could to make our special day absolutely perfect! On our wedding day, he set up early to make sure that the speakers sounded amazing at our venue. Jesse did a wonderful job sticking with our timeline and making sure everything went smoothly. He felt our guests out, and played songs that they loved to keep the party and dancing going all night! We had the best day and cannot thank Alomar Entertainment enough for being our DJ! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Paige Danielle Photography

Fort Wayne, IN
  • Photographer
  • Starts at $2,500

To sum myself up in this “about you” section is nearly impossible so here are a few things you must know. I like to have a good time with fun, real people, who love to laugh. You can expect to see me always smiling and have no shame in dancing with you on the dance floor to get some of the best photos. I just celebrated my one year anniversary with my husband, Nick and I am obsessed with my pup, Rylee. We love to travel, try new things, and are almost always outside, but I'll always come in for my fave snack of a charcuterie board and glass of wine.

We found Paige through an Instagram search of Indiana wedding photographers and fell in love with her style. I asked my brother who has a photographer eye for his opinion and he said, “she takes genuinely good pictures and doesn’t rely on a filter or editing to make them good.” So we booked her. And it was honestly the best decision my husband and I made. We booked her before any other vendor or even our venue so our wedding date revolved around having her as a photographer. She listened to every vision, thought, question we had and she made it feel like we knew her forever. When she did our engagement photos I was a little nervous at first because my husband is not a photo person, but she lead posing, positioning, and facial expressions so well. We were OBSESSED with our engagement photos and had them all over our reception and our house. On wedding day, the girls started to get behind with hair and make up and Paige had it all figured out. She added buffer time in the schedule and rearranged the schedule so that we were still on time for our ceremony. Before our first look, I felt like my hair piece was falling out and she fixed it so well that it held up for our grand entrance to the reception. Paige did so well with family portrait time and I have a huge family that she was able to wrangle and photograph the quickest and best I have ever seen. She helped pin up my bustle that was loose, carried our food so it wouldn’t spill on us, and took my hairpiece out for the reception repinning the loose hairs that stayed until our last dance. Now these are not in her job description but I feel are important to mention because she is the biggest reason our day ran so smoothly. She really thinks of everything and is prepared for everything. Paige made it feel like a friend was taking our pictures and we are SO grateful. We just have our sneak peeks right now but we are so excited to see the full gallery because the sneak peeks are stunning. My family and friends love the pictures so much. My husband’s grandma told me she looks through the sneak peeks before bed to relive the day because our photographer captured it so well she can remember every moment she looks at. Hiring Paige as your photographer is the best decision you could make for your day and when we start a family we will be using her again for maternity pictures.

Though we did not hire Wandering Spirits to host a wedding, we did have a great experience from start to finish. I had reached out to Kim several weeks prior but we had not made a decision till, truly, last minute. Kim was more than willing to work with my tight time line and we were able to get everything set up and done before the date of the party. Kim and team came up with 2 holiday signature drinks for us to offer (and they were delicious to say the least) and they were a big hit with all of our employees. I would recommend them for any occasion!

Eric was an absolute joy to have as part of our wedding. Prior to the wedding he was very efficient in his communication and planning. He paid attention to every small detail and helped us with our wedding timeline. He made sure to check in a few days prior to the wedding to finalize any small details and ensure he was on the same page with our wishes. He was excited to DJ our wedding as it was his first LGBTQ wedding and we are so glad we chose him! During the ceremony he kept things moving and transitioned music nicely. He kept us on schedule and even brought us drinks! The music was phenomenal and exactly our taste. I would highly recommend him for anyone in the future as he was a fun person overall and excellent at his job! Than you Eric for making our day so amazing!!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I was introduced to The Red Stiletto this past year at a Bridal Expo. I had not originally chosen them for my Wedding as it ended up some distance away. I kept their information and followed up after COVID restrictions lessened and our Wedding was performed in our back yard. The owner is very responsive, polite, sincere, and accommodating. I went to the salon several times before my Wedding and felt comfortable with my decision to chose them for my Wedding hair and makeup. The artists showed up early to set up, were very professional, had positive and upbeat attitudes, and did an amazing job with everyone, and finished perfectly on time. I would highly suggest The Red Stiletto to those who want a great job done with staff that puts them first. I continue to be a client at this salon as I had just moved here and was unfamiliar with my options. After dealing with two other salons here, I feel happy with my choice.

Hi, I'm Julie. Photographer & outdoor enthusiast. You want your genuine, joyful love captured on your wedding day. But right now you just feel, stressed, nervous, maybe even clueless….! As a wedding photographer, I don’t just show up on your wedding day. I come alongside you so that your wedding photography journey is easy as possible. Putting people at ease and using locations wisely (aka: creating beautiful photos from not-so-beautiful places) is my jam!

We were initially impressed with Julie’s portfolio online and booked her based on her photographs alone, but we were even more impressed when she offered to travel to us for engagement photos. We both had very little free time and it was a huge help! The engagement photos turned out lovely and we appreciated her flexibility on the location. For the wedding, Julie and her assistant showed up promptly and took beautiful photographs of the wedding details and made sure to capture all of the traditional “special moments” and then some, including numerous family portraits and candid photos of wedding guests. Overall, we are incredibly happy with the wedding photographs and highly recommend Julie with Simply Seeking Photography. Thanks, Julie!
