Monica is an amazing makeup artist! Her warm and embracing spirit allows you to lean into a full fledged glam process. From the skin prep to the eyeshadow blending, everything felt supreme.

Rebecca Kirkwood Beauty

South Orange, NJ
  • Beauty professional
  • Team of 1
  • Starts at $1,250

Since a very young age, I’ve always shown a true interest and love of the arts. I had the unique opportunity to study and practice live-model sketching, painting, and portrait drawing while at university and abroad in Florence, Italy. Showing an extra interest in color theory and the human face, I was naturally drawn to makeup artistry. I believe beauty can be seen in everything and bring that strong artistic eye with me to every makeup application. I took my love of makeup artistry to the next level in 2016. I’m a graduate of Nina Mua's Intensive Makeup School in NYC, where they covered all of the fundamentals of makeup artistry.

Rebecca is incredible! She made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. I was impressed with Rebecca's ability to create the perfect look for me based on our conversations and inspiration photos. Rebecca is extremely talented and made everyone feel gorgeous. Additionally, Rebecca is very professional, organized and overall, has a calming presence. She went above and beyond in so many ways and it was such a joy to work with her! I would highly recommend her!

We’re so glad we chose Jason. We can’t believe how beautiful our photos are. We’re both pretty awkward people and we always look silly in photos. He was so fun and encouraging. He captured every moment beautifully. We’ve never looked so graceful in our lives. We had our wedding at a campground and he arrived early and worked with us to get pictures of our friends and families in that casual setting in our casual clothes. In these pictures and in the photos of our wedding, he made beautiful use of the scenery. He got to know us as a couple and really understood our vision. He gave detailed directions but the photos still look organic and spontaneous. He was also so kind and accessible through the whole process. We didn’t have a planner and he helped us figure out our wedding itinerary even though that was definitely not his job. He has a ton of wedding experience and it shows.

Working with Miranda, Raquel, and Kylie was a true pleasure. Kylie assisted us at our rehearsal the day before our wedding, practicing the ceremony to ensure we understood the process and best practices for each bridal party member. Miranda and Raquel were there for us on our wedding date, helping set up decor, running to get breakfast for the bridal party, and being the point of contact with all our vendors. At one point, as the bride, I was getting overstimulated with all the pictures being taken in a short amount of time, and Miranda/Raquel had my back by making sure I had water and 30 minutes to center before our ceremony. I'd recommend Start Rose Creations to family and friends for any event.

Mitali is truly a master at what she does. She brought my floral dreams to life. It was everything I could have hoped for and more.

We're a husband/wife photography duo. We're college sweethearts and we're currently expecting our first child in June 2021! We are so happy to be in this business but we didn’t always know we’d become wedding photographers. Seth spent about 10 years in video production (aka the equipment expert) and Nicole is an advertising art director (aka the artsy perfectionist).

We truly could not have asked for a better wedding and engagement photographer!! We feel so incredibly lucky to have had Seth and his team capture our special day. From the moment Seth arrived at our venue his main priority was making sure we were in good spirits and having fun while capturing every moment, big and small. Seth was so kind, organized, professional, and down to earth. We cannot recommend Hyde Photography enough!

We hired DJ ALX for our Brooklyn wedding and afterparty this past October, and we absolutely cannot recommend him enough. From the very first meeting, he encouraged us to feel confident and excited about planning a wedding that was truly us. He helped us map out our run-of-show for a non-traditional music venue wedding, gave incredibly helpful feedback, and encouraged our creative ideas. At our first meeting, he mixed our entrance song live on the spot (so impressive!) and rehearsed introductions and pronunciations until they were perfect. On the wedding day, he arrived early, stayed on top of every single detail, and adapted flawlessly to our unconventional schedule. When it came to the party, his mixing was phenomenal. He moved effortlessly from funk and oldies to EDM and modern hits, keeping the dance floor packed all night — even through the hurricane outside. He honored our “no requests” rule to keep the flow consistent, nailed every must-play and dedication, and somehow still found time to film and share video of special moments afterward (a huge gift since we didn’t have a videographer). Since the wedding, every one of our guests, many of whom are professional musicians, still talk about how amazing he was. DJ ALX truly felt like a trusted friend throughout this process, professional, intuitive, and full of good energy. He gave us the best party of our lives, and we’d book him again in a heartbeat. If you’re looking for a DJ who’s not only insanely good at his craft but also genuinely kind, thoughtful, and invested in your day DJ ALX is your guy.

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

Looking at the photos feels like flipping through the best storybook of my life. Every chapter is there, from the nervous getting ready moments to the wild dancing at the end. The colors are so rich and the emotions are so clear, it’s like time travel. The video is even better, it makes me cry every time and my husband too (though he won’t admit it). I love the candid moments, like when my bridesmaids were fixing my veil and we were all laughing. They didn’t just document the day, they made ART. It’s crazy how they can make even the smallest moment look magical. I will never stop being thankful for these memories. They are worth every single penny and then some.

We cannot say enough great things about Nicholas Yee and his incredible team! Literally from the very beginning, he demonstrated unparalleled professionalism - answering all of our emails super quickly, and taking the time to ensure every detail was covered. He worked with us to create a personalized timeline that made our day run SEAMLESSLY. Most of our vendors worked off his timeline. This allowed us to focus on the joy of the moment without worrying about logistics. He’s also just a great person overall - we felt like we were talking to an old friend. :) What truly sets Nicholas Yee apart is his eye for capturing not only the big, emotional moments but also the quiet, loving exchanges and the spontaneous moments of levity that made our wedding day uniquely ours. We were blown away by the pictures and the moments he captured. We can only really describe the pictures as breathtakingly “cinematic.” 10/10!!! On top of his artistry, his organizational skills were impeccable. He efficiently coordinated all of the family and wedding party photos with incredible time management, ensuring everything was done quickly and beautifully. He budgeted extra time in the timeline for delays which was most appreciated! This allowed us to maximize time with our guests and enjoy the celebration while still getting every shot we had hoped for—and then some!

Omg where do I even begin??! Nicole is a master of her craft. I reached out in December 2022 for my May 5, 2024 wedding and I knew after our first phone call that she was the one I wanted designing my flowers and centerpieces. We instantly clicked and she knew exactly what I was envisioning and how to get us there. All throughout the process she kept me involved and was constantly making sure it’s what I wanted. Even though I knew what colors she was going with I was still left absolutely speechless when my bouquets were delivered to my hotel room the morning of. And when I walked into the venue and saw the centerpieces I was in awe. Like she blew it out of the water. Nicole is one of the most kind hearted, beautiful people I’ve met throughout my whole wedding planning process and even in my life and I’m beyond grateful for her.

We couldn’t have been more thrilled with the music for our reception and cocktail hour! We went with The Gramercy, a DJ/band combo, and they were absolutely amazing. From start to finish, they kept the energy up and made sure the music was exactly what we wanted. They were incredibly interactive with our guests, which really added to the fun. It wasn’t just background music—it was a key part of the celebration, and everyone felt engaged. They played every song we requested perfectly and seamlessly filled in with other tracks that hit the mood exactly right. The vibe was always on point, and we had guests commenting that it was the best wedding music they had ever experienced. Beyond their talent, they were also so easy to work with. The whole process was super streamlined, from submitting song requests and details through their app to coordinating with the venue. They were professional, responsive, and just an absolute joy to work with. One highlight was when they played "Shipping up to Boston" and all of the Boston College alumni went crazy on the dance floor!

I can’t say enough good things about Eli and LSC Planning. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but she held it all together for me from start to finish. She has an incredible attention to detail - months before the wedding she casually asked me my boba order, and then surprised me with that exact drink right after we walked down the aisle. It’s little things like that, combined with her calm presence and flawless coordination, that made the day so special. On the big day, I didn’t have to worry about a single thing - she made sure everything ran smoothly so I could actually enjoy my wedding.

Fernando at Blanc Noir Event Group was one of the best hiring decisions for our wedding! Our friends and family are still raving to us about what a great time they had. We danced the WHOLE night and the “hora loca” blew everyone’s minds. Fernando also incorporated our song requests seamlessly, ensuring the vibe was right before playing anything. Given that it was a bilingual wedding, he also ensured that both languages were incorporated so everyone felt included and it wasn’t overwhelming on either side. I appreciated that a whole lot. He played a major role in making our wedding the most fun wedding, and was a pleasure to work with, and highly professional.
