Emerson Avenue 

4.8

North Oaks, MN
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $3,500

There’s dancing in the streets of the Twin Cities! Emerson Avenue is a high-energy, horn-driven, classic rock band that hails from Minnesota’s Twin Cities. You’ll hear sounds that are heavily rooted in rock, soul, and funk, with classic tracks from bands like Earth Wind & Fire, Chicago, Aretha Franklin, Bee Gees, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Chaka Khan, Amy Winehouse, Prince, and many more!

I booked Emerson for my wedding in 2017 after finding out about them from a mutual friend. I was able to customize the songs I was interested in and they learned something new just for my reception. A year later they had an opening for a trumpet player and the rest is history!

We could not have asked for a better DJ for our wedding. From start to finish, the energy was incredible and the night flowed seamlessly. He did an amazing job reading the crowd, keeping the dance floor packed, and creating a fun, upbeat atmosphere that lasted all night. The transitions were smooth, the music choices were on point, and everything felt effortless and well-timed. Beyond the music, his professionalism and calm presence made a huge difference on such a busy day. We felt completely confident trusting him with the flow of the night, which allowed us to truly relax and enjoy the celebration. Our guests are still talking about how much fun they had.

We had the best experience working with Andrew! He worked his butt off on our wedding day — calm, composed, and totally open to the (very long!) list of shots I wanted. He remembered which locations mattered to us and made sure we got everything we envisioned. Leading up to the wedding, he was super responsive and easy to communicate with. We had multiple check-in calls, and he was always helpful, professional, and kind. On the day of, he directed us efficiently so we could get our photos done and get back to enjoying celebration with our friends and family without feeling rushed or stressed. He brought such a positive, calming energy and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. He captured a perfect mix of posed and candid moments, and he even coordinated with our DJ, planner, and hair/makeup team to make sure everything flowed smoothly. We recently got our photos back and absolutely love them. It’s clear that Andrew’s work is a step above — the images are not only stunning, but they feel personal, artful, and full of life. He captured the emotion, the fun, and all the little in-between moments we’ll want to remember forever. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to document our day — highly, highly recommend!

the suite seat

  • Beauty professional
  • Serves North Oaks, MN

One of my favorite parts of working with brides is putting to rest all of their fears about why they might not be able to have the style they’re envisioning to complete their look. Hair too fine, not long enough, won’t hold a curl… I’ve heard it all. And I love the look on my bride’s face when we work together to make her “impossible” vision come to life. I consider it a high honor to style a bride for a day in which she’ll be memorialized in photos for all time. When you’re in the suite seat, i promise you’ll love what you see in those photos. Enough about me. Let’s talk about your hair!

Awarded Best of Zola
Kristy at Suite Seat was a pleasure to work with for my wedding day hair as well as bridesmaids.Her communication was easy, organized, and responsive via text, which made planning my look a breeze. On the day of, their work was impeccable - my hair and makeup stayed in place beautifully, from the simple style I wanted to the more extravagant look for a bridesmaid. She brought such great energy and even gifted me some extra hairspray and bobby pins to keep everything looking perfect for the entire day. I've stayed in touch with the Kristy since the wedding.. I highly recommend Suite Seat for any couple's wedding beauty needs.

Kastina & Co. is a Minnesota-based wedding and event planning company serving the Midwest and beyond. Built on a decade of experience in high-end venue management and led by a former theater kid with a love for production magic, we specialize in creating events that are as seamless as they are stunning. We’re passionate about meaningful moments, striking designs, and the behind-the-scenes details that make it all come together. Our team sets the stage and orchestrates the flow so you can simply enjoy the experience, stress-free.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kastina Morrison is the epitome of event excellence. We hired Kastina & Co. for day-of (really, month-of) wedding coordination for our outdoor ceremony at a non-traditional farm venue. Kastina dove right in, offering a curated list of 5-star vendors, brainstorming for decor, and setting several meetings to keep things on track. We had a lot of cannabis elements (a very new thing in Minnesota), but Kastina was able to help us find the right partners to stay compliant and classy. The best part, aside from Kastina’s immensely positive and creative spirit, is her organizational skills. She created many invaluable documents, including an incredibly detailed run-of-show that outlined our wedding down to the minute. Every single person, whether it was a vendor, a wedding party person, or a family member, knew precisely where they needed to be when. This document alone was worth its weight in gold as it allowed me (the bride) to enjoy my special day, and helped ease the mind of my anxious MIL (not an easy feat). On the day of, Kastina and her team worked their tails off to ensure things went off without a hitch - including repairing a wind-damaged tent. It could have spelled disaster for our reception, but somehow Kastina saved the day. And I didn’t even know it happened until the very end of the night. She’s just that good. If you’re considering hiring Kastina & Co., do not hesitate. It will be the best decision you ever made. Our wedding even made it into Minnesota Bride magazine thanks to Kastina’s brilliant execution!

Madison and I met when she hired me to do her wedding flowers but since then we have worked together as collaborators on several wedding projects! She is sweet, funny, kind and wonderful at creating and sticking to realistic timelines. She captures the day as it really is and doesn't make you do corny poses or funny prompts like some other wedding photographers. Her style is dreamy fun vintage and she often brings several cameras so that you can have some photos that are digital as well as film. I am very excited to see that she is leaving her day job and spending time doing what she was meant to do, being a creative!

Awarded Best of Zola
We used Green Mill Catering for our wedding this April, and I can't say enough good things about them! The biggest feedback we got on our wedding was that it was the best food they had ever tasted. We had a hard time choosing during the tasting, because everything was just so good! They are really flexible with the menu arrangement, and even made a custom-requested dessert for us. They accommodated every request and question, and were so patient as we debated our choices. I wish I had more photos of the meals, but the presentation was equally as great! Everything was truly delicious, but we especially recommend trying the almond crusted chicken, the mashed potatoes, the crab-stuffed mushrooms, the coconut chicken skewers, the mini walleye cakes, the Swedish meatballs, and the mini shooters.

Like many people, I spent 10 years within corporate America and although I am thankful for my experience, it wasn't feeding my soul. I can be honest and say that I learned so much- my customer service skills, high-level organizational & strategy skills, and my overall work ethic comes directly from my experience within a regular ol' 9-5. However, I've been able to pair what I learned the last 10 years with my passion for photography, and have built this business to provide a stellar experience, the same one I would expect if I were getting married. Below I'll dive into what sets Loui apart, and I hope to hear about your upcoming day!

Hayley and I are wedding videographers (Sublime Exposures Films). We meet photographers all the time and know what it's like to work with normal ones, bad ones, and now even great ones. Meg of LouiPhotography was the most decisive AND remained flexible. She was the most communicative about what she was going to do and why, and was extremely transparent. We're originally from Fargo, and working with her made us want to move to the cities to hang with the real professionals. Thanks for making us feel so welcomed and working with us so well to make our jobs easy. All teams should be able to collaborate like that to make the day the least stressful for the brides and grooms as possible and we shall always strive for this standard.

As wedding planners, The Lowlands is one of our favorite venues to work at. Their communication style is responsive and detailed, which makes planning a breeze. The venue itself is so naturally beautiful, with an upstairs space and a downstairs space that have two different vibes - it's a unique and flexible setting. The catering options are great, and the getting ready spaces are a huge plus. And the staff is next level - they really go above and beyond to make sure everything runs smoothly.

My name is Meredith. I’m a self-taught photographer, an avid hiker, and a person who loves getting lost in their own city. If I am not photographing, you will either find me in one of two places, a coffee shop or out in nature usually eating my favorite snacks in fish form (Swedish or Gold), or belting anything from musicals to early 2000s country (yes there is a difference) to 90’s hip hop jams.

I've had the privilege of working with Meredith at Cross Lake Media for a couple weddings now, and she's been nothing shy of an amazing vendor to work with! As a videographer, she's given me all the creative reign I need to successfully do my job all while being able to do hers as well. She's both professional and personable, and I am so glad the photographer community has brought us together. I love seeing the way she gives her clients the MOST special treatment, and I can't wait to see how she will continue to grow as a photographer.
