I'm all about boho, beachy hair vibes, think effortless twist, textured braids, and soft beach waves. These are my specialty and I'm especially known for my beach wave curls, signature twists and high messy buns. Click the link in bio on Instagram to see the great reviews Brides have to say about The Bridal Wave!

I hired Megan from The Bridal Wave for my wedding day, and she blew me away with the stunning work she did. Her communication was quick, responsive, and professional throughout the entire process. The quality of her work was truly amazing and worth every penny - she made my morning so peaceful and relaxed, and I felt the most beautiful I've ever felt! Megan is the best of the best, and she's your go-to gal to help your entire wedding party get glammed and ready with a friendly smile and sense of humor. I had a trial before the wedding and loved my hair, but she took it to the next level on the big day. I couldn't be happier with my experience with The Bridal Wave!

Conner has such an awesome portfolio of experience he is truly changing the reputation of what it means to be a wedding DJ. He does so much more. He mixes, he personalized the playlists to your specific liking, he plays absolute BANGERS, not to mention he has an insane lighting setup and is the best MC I've heard!

I've been djing since I was 15 years old. I had a fascination for parties and events at an early age. I tagged along with my brother who dj'd at house parties back in the early 80's. I was hooked after seeing how much joy the music brought out in the crowd. I started buying my own 12" records, and it evolved into doing my own gigs: house parties, jr. high & high school dances, colleges, raves, underground parties, night clubs, weddings, corporate events, and so on. I started my DJ business in 1987, and have been honing my craft now for 3 decades. Thirty plus years later, I continue to love what I do. Now let's get the party started.

Our team is dedicated towards telling your love story through our love of story-telling with film! Capturing your moment on camera is our specialty - your wedding day and our expertise is a match made in heaven. They say your wedding day passes by in a flash, we'll be there to capture your special moments to watch throughout the years.

TLDR: Hire Ryan, he’s worth every penny! I had roughly an 18 month engagement and I interviewed several videographers in the valley and I couldn’t find a good fit. I just stopped looking for like a year when I saw there was a new player in town: Ryan Films was at the bridal convention and his style was impeccable for what I was looking for. I reached out immediately and he was so responsive and nice. I already loved his style but his organization and communication were just godsends during our busy season. He sent us the proposed contracts and everything was done through a handy portal and he was great at reminding us for important dates or to dos and I feel like he really wanted to get a sense of what we were like as a couple. I loved his detailed emails because he mentioned things to do that I would have never thought about! And of course, day of, Ryan and his assistant were extremely friendly and great to work with. They worked well with my photographer and had great energy. The team together was amazing, I feel like I could have not chosen better vendors for our special day. Now the product itself (delivered very promptly after the wedding with expedited delivery) was immaculate. He has an amazing eye at capturing all the little things I’ve missed because the day flew by. When I saw people’s videos on their cellphone of the night, you can literally see Ryan and his assistant flying through the room catching the best views but it’s crazy because during the day of, I didn’t feel like his presence was distracting, he just seamlessly existed in the background while capturing magic! Overall, if you are in the market looking for a videographer, I highly suggest Ryan Films. I’m so happy I procrastinated for a videographer because the right one just wasn’t here yet!

I've always had a love for photography and I feel privileged to bring my passion to life. I want my photos to capture the genuine feeling of the moment and to reflect you and your story.

Awarded Best of Zola
Madison's not just someone with a camera and capability, she's a photographer with a natural good eye as well. We appreciated her clean subject alignments/angles and more true-to-color editing and were very impressed by the pictures we got back from reception, where we had pretty complex indoor lighting: A whole wall of windows behind us most of the time and then dark brown ballroom lighting into the evening (@Loews Hotel). Not to mention, we asked her to minimize using flash as a personal preference and she was so receptive and remembering of that too. Communicating with her was like talking to a friend. She was responsive, engaged, and inclusive. Could go on and on, but her images speak for themselves because she is consistent both in her photography style as well as personality!

I truly recommend Nick and his team! They really did an amazing job from day one, the zoom call, answering questions, sending forms to fill out, etc. The day of my wedding the videographer that was assigned to us did such a good job and was so well educated and thoughtful at all times. I loved that he was from Argentina so I could speak to him in Spanish since I am from Venezuela. I knew the editing work would take some time but it was worth the wait!! Everything Nick and his team delivered to us, the highlight video, teaser video and the film of our wedding was phenomenally done. Our families were very satisfied and impressed with the work. One of the most important pieces of the whole wedding I wanted to have recorded was my 5 minute dance with my husband. We prepared a whole set with 4 different songs that showcased our cultures (Latin and Persian) and wow the editing of our dance was just done to perfection. My husband and I were super happy watching every single second of it and reliving the moment. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart from capturing our most special day, our union in marriage, with such professionalism and aesthetics!!! I will always recommend you :)

When we were first planning our wedding, the idea of having a videographer was the last thing on our minds. We already had a photographer, and the idea of having another camera recording us felt like nerve-wracking and an unnecessary expense. With a little more than a month before the wedding, however, we began to realize that we wanted our vows to be captured in a way that photographs alone could not. After just one day of looking for potential videographers and being put off by lack of quality, nickle-and-diming, pushy sales tactics, and overwhelm about the amount of money it would cost to have a film of our ceremony, we found Michael Cerundolo at Focused Bliss Productions. From our very first contact with Michael, we were blown away by his passion for his work, his commitment to quality, and his willingness to give us everything we wanted and nothing we didn’t. Michael made time to get us booked at the best price we had seen and assured us that he would provide us with quality beyond what we had been able to find. And he delivered. Michael was with us every step of the way, going over details for the wedding and assuring us of his ability to handle the unexpected. On the day of the wedding, Michael was warm, friendly, and put us at ease. When the audio set-up at our venue failed to capture our voices as clearly as we had hoped, Michael assured us he would be able to adjust and correct this in post-production. With weddings, little things always go wrong — nothing is ever “perfect.” There is inherent awkwardness, snags, and unexpected variables. However, when Michael delivered our ceremony film just a week after our wedding, our jaws dropped as we realized he had captured all of the beauty of the ceremony and had smoothed out all of the snags. What we were presented with was a priceless memory the way we would want to remember it. Our voices were clear, the music was soft, and our love was captured in a moving picture. Michael, we cannot thank you enough for giving us such a priceless memory to treasure, just the way we had hoped to remember it. And for the person reading this review, if you are on the fence about whether or not videography is worth the expense in a tight wedding budget, know that your wedding day will go by so fast and that Focused Bliss Productions will provide you with a living memory to treasure for the rest of your lives, just the way you want to remember your wedding day.

We are incredibly appreciative and thankful for Abbey Catering! From the minute we inquired, we were met with nothing but warmth, professionalism and genuine thoughtfulness. We inquired with many companies for our wedding, and right off the bat, I knew Abbey was the way to go. From the early stages of helping us select our perfect package, to the food tasting and logistics, Abbey made our wedding absolutely perfect. It truly felt like they were family - it was a 10/10 experience. Not to mention, the food was INCREDIBLE, and our guests raved about the food for weeks after. They even went the extra mile to send us home with packaged leftovers and other goodies. Huge shoutout to Troy, Chuck and David who made our experience so wonderful. Thank you so much! -the Farleys (all photos by @daniicajoy)
