Barb Fox's DJ Entertainment 
Vestal, NY
  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,300

There may be many things to differentiate between DJs, but one of the biggest is the personality and Barb has a great one! Every party needs a different amount of interjection, and she knows how to read the crowd and make them feel at ease. Playing the right song at the right time is an art, a skill that Barb applies seemingly effortlessly from her unlimited music collection. She is energetic, but not overwhelming. Remember the party is about you and your guests, not the DJ.

The Lovely Lens

  • Serves Vestal, NY

Hullo! So you're gettin' hitched (YaaY!), but you’re not super into the idea of the overly-manicured wedding. A+ for you, because this is not your parents’ wedding photography. I'm a farm kid who floats between the journalism and art worlds. I love telling stories as much as I love listening to the stories of others. I’m the type of person who makes up musicals for my own amusement and nurses a soft spot for sci-fi and fantasy. If I’m not taking photos, I’m usually dancing. Or cooking. It’s possible I may have a baking addiction and try to mitigate the damage by forcing the goods on loved ones.

Celia is not your typical wedding photographer -- not even close. She is so much more! She's a documentarian, artist, journalist, and storyteller, and that is exactly why working with her was one of the best decisions we made for the best day of our lives! My husband and I wanted a photographer who would prioritize candid photos of genuine emotions and chaos (let's be honest, weddings are chaotic!) as opposed to staged and rigid "everyone-line-up-and-smile" portraits. The Lovely Lens fit that bill entirely. In addition to delivering the most beautiful, vibrant, happy, REAL photos of our wedding weekend, she was also such a lovely presence the whole time (I felt like she was a genuine friend by the end!) Also, she was totally game for everything! Our wedding got a late start thanks to the weather, which squished the time we'd allotted for photos exponentially (we also decided not to have a first look, so the photo time was even more squished). Celia quite literally sprinted through a field of wet grass and mud and then through a secret corridor with us as we rushed to get back to our cocktail hour to be present at our wedding. She is a superhero, and we cannot recommend her enough!

Osmica is a dream! Allie and Kurt are gems and helped make our wedding so very special. From the beautiful property to the fun yard games, gorgeous renovated barn and hayloft to the lovely overnight we spent at the B&B, it was an occasion we'll never forget. The space is flexible to have a ceremony indoors or out, space for live music, ample dance floor real estate, and the loft can be set up in different configurations for whatever suits the event. Allie used flowers from the property to adorn the tables while Kurt managed catering deliveries, and they were amazing with set-up, tear-down, welcoming guests, and so much more. Allie communicated with us clearly about making sure we had the proper paperwork filed for having beer and wine on-site, and details for making things run smoothly on the day-of. We booked a night at the B&B which was so fabulous - they've renovated the farm house with such charm and character, many things being up-cycled - and breakfast we had the next morning (with ingredients from the farm!) was scrumptious. We highly recommend Osmica for your wedding, or any special event!

Awarded Best of Zola
Julia is truly the BEST photographer out there and she makes everyone look SO GOOD!! We booked her for both our engagement session and our wedding because we loved her so much! She is so skillful at finding beautiful angles and working with natural lighting, and she was great at directing us with suggested poses that didn’t look forced or unnatural. She was also really easy to work with: we met up beforehand to communicate our vision and discuss the kinds of photographs that we wanted for the engagement session and we did that again for our wedding. On our wedding day Julia brought her husband Leo who is also a photographer to assist her and they came early in the morning to begin taking scenery photos, details, and other things while the rest of us got ready. She was there with us throughout the entire day all the way til the end of the evening and she went out with us to take some sunset photos in the middle of the reception, which turned out so beautifully! Finally, Julia was super prompt at sending us the final photographs, which I know she worked hard on because there were A LOT! We can tell that Julia truly enjoys what she does and really wants to get the best photos possible so she always goes above and beyond. I think the phenomenal photos that we’re sharing here can speak for themselves. She was such a joy to work with and we can’t wait to find some other excuse to hire her again!!

Hello, I'm Kayla! Voted most likely to succeed in the field of agriculture. Yet somehow, landed here. And I wouldn't change a single thing. Life has taken me on some crazy adventures and up until 6 years ago, none of those pointed to being a photographer. Becoming a mom led me to pick up a camera and since then I haven't put it back down. I quickly developed a passion for telling people's stories. Capturing the most intimate, heartfelt moments truly sets my soul on fire.

Kayla French Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. Kayla provided great communication everything leading up to the wedding and after, and the day of she couldn't have been more helpful. Kayla's work is absolutely amazing - you can tell she loves what she does and it really shows in the beautiful photos she captured. Kayla helped in every way to contribute to our special day, and our guests really enjoyed her presence and positive energy. We are thrilled with the sneak peaks and can not wait to see final photos. We would highly recommend Kayla French Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

We asked for a classy vibe during cocktail hour and dinner, and a complete switch to nightclub energy for the reception. He absolutely delivered! The dance floor was packed the entire night, and our guests could not stop raving about him. Several even told us he was the best wedding DJ they’ve ever seen. Mike handled every detail with care. He nailed our custom entrance songs, even the hard-to-find ones, and made perfect announcements that matched our energy. He took the time before the reception to gather our bridal party and family so everything flowed exactly as we wanted. The photo booth and club cannon were a huge hit, and every song was a banger. Music was one of our top priorities when planning our wedding, and choosing Mike was the best decision we made. He truly made our night unforgettable and we will forever recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding DJ!

This luxury boutique hotel overlooks Cayuga Lake and is just 9 miles from Ithaca, New York, in the heart of the Finger Lakes Wine Trail. The estate combines modern accommodations, private guest houses, and a majestic Victorian Inn next to one of the tallest waterfalls in the country. The Inn at Taughannock has three on-site wedding venues, including a new one-acre wedding garden. The wedding garden, named "Enchantment", has a 100' x 60' translucent sailcloth tent, a 42' alabaster bar, and a dry-stack stone fire place that it took four masons one year to build. In addition to these marvelous features there are also three fire-pits on site, one of which is cantilevered and hangs above the outer wall over looking Cayuga Lake. Our full service event planning team is ready to provide you with a concierge style service as they help you navigate every facet of the wedding planning journey.

If you're considering planning your wedding at the Inn at Taughannock Falls, do it - this place is pure magic. I am wholeheartedly convinced that there is no venue that compares to the Enchantment garden or offers the wedding planning experience that you get at the Inn. The planners are top-notch, incredibly personable, thoughtful, detail-oriented and help bring your dream wedding to life. At the Inn, customization is limitless - a blank canvas (well, if you consider a blank canvas to be gorgeous gardens, sprawling staircase, and stunning tent) awaits. We worked with Tania-lynn who was an absolute rockstar and made our wildest dreams come to life. Every 'I" was dotted and every "T" was crossed. We didn't have a worry in the world when we walked onto the grounds on our wedding day. I can't speak more highly about the experience, staff, accommodations, and wedding day (and I've been dreaming about this day since I was a little girl!). What an honor it was to have our wedding at the Inn at Taughannock Falls. Thank you to the amazing planners and staff that made our wedding day the best day of our lives.

Additionally, all of the catering staff working that night were so sweet, offering to help us carry our plates, which was a big help since I was wearing a heavy dress.

The barn can comfortably seat 280+ people inside for a reception and there is no need for a tent with plenty of ceremony options such as the enclosed loft, attached porches, custom pavilion or our lavish gardens. You have plenty of layout options - it's your day, plan it your way! ***Date availability, pricing information or tour requests must be submitted on our website***

I have had the pleasure of photographing at the Dutch Harvest Farm and it is such a beautiful backdrop for a wedding. The barn is so spacious and perfect for any wedding or event. Laura has been so helpful and accommodating, and I look forward to working here more in the future.

Where do I even begin. I called Sharon at Gilbertsville Farmhouse 8 days after Dave proposed to me. I was a bride on a mission with a vision and I knew (even after just looking at pictures online), that this was the place that would host the most special weekend of our lives. Sharon - first and foremost thank you for absolutely everything. You have a vision for design like no other and a heart of gold that shines through. To say that we love you is an understatement and I feel like we will be family forever. (Me and dave will be back every year don’t you worry). Brandon…where do I even start with you!?! Thank you for dealing with my type A personality and excel sheets seamlessly. I don’t know why things happen the way they do but I know for a fact that you were supposed to be apart of our big weekend. Thank you will never justify how we feel about you and like I already told you l, I’m never deleted our group chat because we are in fact best friends. Every couple is lucky to have you and I thank god every single second for the over the top and outstanding emotional support you provided to us. (LOL) KATIE! You are just magic, this place would not be the same without you there. I don’t know how you do what you do with such ease but I truly smile at the thought of you. I don’t want to brag but one of my favorite moments (besides the little dress flashing) will be you walking me down the aisle. I don’t think many people will be able to say that and I am honored. Chef Dakota - I will never be the same after eating your masterpieces (yes masterpieces). Food brings people together and that is exactly what you did. (That salmon - I could just die). GFH team - my goodness I love you all so much. The wedding blues are worse than normal because your team is not normal they are EXTRAORDINARY people. I will never forget this weekend and all the hard work you put into it to make sure our day was perfect, regardless of the weather. Maggie and Duke, I miss you more than you know. We love you all so much. Brides and grooms don’t hesitate on this magical place. RAIN OR SHINE they show up and show out for you. I literally walked down the aisle in the rain and I couldn’t have imagined it any other way. Side note: Queen Victoria - I’ve only seen a snippet of the photos you took and if they were the only ones I ever got I would die happy. Family forever. The Sampsons

Your wedding is a unique expression of who you are. You have a vision, and it’s time to bring that vision to life. You deserve to have a celebration as unique as you are!

Engaged Entertainment is a full-time entertainment provider, which means that your event is our 9-5 job, not just a weekend “gig.” You get more of our time and attention to make your event an unbelievable success!

Ryan was truly the whole package. When we were originally pricing out DJs for our wedding, we were a little shocked by how much they are. However, music is very important to both of us, and we had heard enough negative stories from friends and acquaintances that we knew it was important to find a quality DJ. Ryan was recommended to us by an old classmate, and from our first meeting we knew we wanted him to do our wedding. Ryan is so personable, so attentive, and he makes you feel like you're the only/most important wedding he's doing (while still exuding confidence and experience). We had a great many long Zoom calls with Ryan (we were planning our wedding from across the country) and he thought of things we would never have thought of in a million years. On the day of, Ryan made sure everything went seamlessly. He was the most incredible emcee and DJ, and all our friends commented on what a great job he did curating an atmosphere. Ryan listened to everything we wanted, and somehow made it even more incredible than we could have dreamed. Ryan is worth every penny. Truly.
