A. Marie Events & Design was founded in 2005 by Anita Craine with a clear belief: meaningful celebrations are built through intention, not excess.​ With a background in hospitality and project management, Anita brings a disciplined creative eye to every event—balancing thoughtful design with seamless execution. Her approach is rooted in understanding how spaces move, how moments unfold, and how experiences are felt long after they end. Rather than simply planning events, the studio approaches each project as a narrative—shaped by atmosphere, flow, and purpose.

Awarded Best of Zola
Anita and her team at A Marie Events & Design were an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From our first meeting, we were impressed by Anita's enthusiasm, creativity, and attention to detail. Communication was consistently great - Anita responded to emails and texts very quickly, keeping us totally looped in on all planning details. On the big day itself, Anita went above and beyond to make sure everything flowed smoothly and looked beautiful. She surprised us with some gorgeous additional floral arrangements and decor touches that perfectly suited our vision. Her expertise in not only coordination but also design, florals, and even officiating (!) enabled her to provide us with a truly custom, seamless one-stop wedding planning experience. I cannot recommend A Marie highly enough for any couple wanting a talented pro who will make your wedding vision come to life!

Hi, I’m Nicole with Inner Lux Beauty where makeup meets mindfulness. I've been working as an artist and business owner in the wedding industry since 2016; working year-round weddings in the beautiful city of Austin, Texas and the surrounding hill country. I'm thrilled to now be in South Florida and especially Fort Lauderdale where I reside, with my team. Pair your bridal hair and makeup services with optional yoga and sound healing add-ons to help you ground and elevate your energy.

Awarded Best of Zola
Having Nicole and Hillary do the hair and makeup for my wedding was a game changer. They were so friendly and personable. They did hair and makeup for 6 adults and 1 child quickly. The heat and humidity in S FL in September is brutal, but my hair lasted literally until I washed it the next day. My makeup lasted all night until I took it off. The same goes for the other ladies. I was so afraid of frizzy hair and messy makeup with the heat and sweat but these ladies are apparently magicians. Thank you both!!!

Awarded Best of Zola
We worked with Keith to plan our February wedding at The Palms in Miami, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better partner. He made the whole process feel easy and fun, and he really understood us from the start. He came up with ideas that were so perfectly “us” — like the Bravo-style confessional video booth and the coconuts with our names on them. Those ended up being some of the biggest hits of the night. Since we were planning everything from across the country, having someone we could fully trust meant everything. He handled all the vendor negotiations, and every single vendor he brought in was reliable, on time, and clearly loved working with him. On the actual day, Keith was unbelievably organized. Everything ran smoothly, the flowers were beautiful, and we never had a moment of stress. We’re so grateful we got to work with him.

Sweet Lime Photography

Fort Lauderdale, FL
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000

Oh... hello. You made it. That's nice. This won't take long, if you poke around a bit you'll probably find what you're looking for. There are some photos, some words... and hopefully they help you decide if I'm the right person to document your wedding. I like to photograph moments that happen naturally, without too much fuss. If you're into that-if you're ok with a little wind in your hair, or a cake that leans slightly to the left-then maybe we'd get along just fine.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we met Erika and Loy for our engagement shoot, we knew we had found something special. They made two self-proclaimed awkward people feel totally at ease in front of the camera. It didn’t feel like posing—it felt like laughing, dancing, and being fully ourselves, all while they worked their magic. The photos captured not just how we looked, but who we are. We walked away from that session with more than beautiful images—we walked away with memories. Fast forward to our wedding day, and they absolutely blew us away. Our friends and family keep raving about the photos: “absolutely stunning,” “so artsy,” “journalistic,” “soulful,” and “hilarious and beautiful at the same time.” The photos brought the emotion of the day flooding back—joy, intimacy, hilarity, and everything in between. Every little detail, every fleeting look, every big, beautiful moment—it’s all there. They somehow captured the energy of the day, not just the visuals. We’ve gone through the gallery more times than we can count, and each time we see something new to love. From my dad’s emotional first look to the spontaneous dance floor chaos to those quiet moments between us in Adirondack chairs—it’s all so genuine and full of heart. Working with Erika and Loy wasn’t just hiring photographers—it was inviting two incredibly talented, kind, and charismatic humans into some of the most important moments of our lives. We can’t imagine having had anyone else there with us. If you’re considering them—do it. Truly, 10 out of 10.

His staff and collaborating DJs are all highly qualified, and many of them are also musicians and vocalists. For backup and reliability reasons, events are staffed with two people, and our sound and lighting systems are doubly redundant.

Awarded Best of Zola
In todays day and age, I read through several reviews for DJs prior to hiring Dan for our wedding. Most of Dan’s reviews mentioned something about organization and that couldn’t be more spot on. Dan was thorough beyond measure from our first meeting all the way until after our wedding. We knew that we would have no worries with Dan as our DJ/MC. Any changes that we made along the way, he made sure to note and always had a calm demeanor when I had a crazy change. We had a lot of events throughout our wedding day that weren’t “normal” and he helped to keep us on track and helped us to carry out this dream wedding beautifully. He was organized, always on time, efficient, played the best music, and kept the dance floor packed. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how great our DJ was afterwards. It was an absolute honor to work with someone like Dan! We are so grateful we hired Dan and would highly recommend him for your wedding or event too!!

As a professional Latin and Ballroom dancer, I love helping couples create a first dance that feels personal and unforgettable.

I know wedding planning can feel overwhelming, so I make lessons fun, easy, and stress-free. Whether you imagine something classic and romantic, playful and upbeat, or uniquely your own, I will guide you in a way that feels natural. The best part is seeing your faces light up when it all comes together. 💜

Awarded Best of Zola
Planning a wedding can be stressful, but finding Panche has been one of the very best (and honestly, most fun) parts of the process! As a ballerina, I already had training in ballet, but ballroom dancing was a whole new world for me. I originally thought I could choreograph a dance myself for my fiancé and me, but all that did was cause arguments and frustration. That’s when I found Panche online and decided to give her a try, and I am SO glad I did. She is not only incredibly talented and knowledgeable, but she makes every single class fun and enjoyable. She has such a gift for teaching, not just to someone like me with dance experience, but also to my fiancé, who (as he admits!) has two left feet. Somehow, she makes him feel comfortable, confident, and excited about learning, which is something I didn’t think was possible! On top of her amazing teaching, I absolutely love her location and the vibe of her studio. It’s warm, welcoming, and full of energy. She also offers such fun group classes outside of the personalized wedding sessions, which makes the whole experience even better. If you’re looking for someone who can make learning to dance together not only stress-free but truly one of the highlights of wedding planning, I cannot recommend Panche enough. She turned something that could have been a headache into one of our favorite memories leading up to the big day.

They took care of everything and made the day completely stress-free. Every detail was thoughtful — I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

We hired Walter Aleman at Walter Aleman Photography & Events for my parents’ 40th wedding anniversary, and he was absolutely incredible! Walter didn’t just show up and take photos—he truly became part of the celebration. He was so involved with the guests, brought so much fun to the party, and made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying themselves. You can tell he genuinely cares about his work and the people he’s photographing. The photos turned out amazing and captured every special moment beautifully. Afterwards, I referred him to several friends who were getting married, and he ended up doing three of their weddings. I attended each one as a bridesmaid, and every single bride and groom loved him just as much as we did! Walter Aleman is truly remarkable at his job, and I can’t recommend him enough.

AFTER COMPLETING HER FORMAL EDUCATION AS A MAKEUP ARTIST IN 2006, ROMANIAN NATIVE DIANA STARTED OUT IN TELEVISION WORKING WITH PRIME TIME NEWS ANCHORS AND WAS ALSO ASKED TO TEACH MAKEUP TECHNIQUES IN THE COSMETIC ACADEMY FROM WHICH SHE GRADUATED. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, SHE YEARNED TO EXPAND HER HORIZONS AND MOVED INTO MUSIC VIDEOS AND HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK IN THE AREA OF FASHION SHOWS AND FASHION MAGAZINE EDITORIALS. HER VERSATILITY RANGES FROM WORKING ON MOVIE SETS AND MUSIC VIDEOS TO FASHION SHOOTS, CATALOG WORK, BRIDAL MAKEUP & WORKING FOR PRESTIGIOUS COSMETIC COMPANIES LIKE CHRISTIAN DIOR, LAURA MERCIER, SMASHBOX, TARTE AND M.A.C.

I can’t say enough amazing things about this woman. She is a makeup genius! I did my engagement photos with Diana and a local magazine reached out to me asking to use our photos! I still look like me but 1000% better. She listened to what I wanted and made my dreams come true. I’ve used her for a few functions/ charity balls since and now she is a little local celebrity amongst my friends.

Hello, beautiful! It's me, Melanie. That photographer... YOUR photographer. Let me reintroduce myself: my name is Melanie and my middle name is Anne. On my 6th birthday, my mother gave me a Kodak film camera to take pictures of my friends while she prepared the birthday cake. Been hooked ever since. I've been capturing weddings for 12 years and counting. Over 400 weddings. Yeah, I stopped counting at 400. Just writing that number is so surreal. When I capture your wedding, it's engraved in my heart forever. Capturing your history is my why. YOU are my why. I wouldn't be able to serve my purpose of serving others without you.

Awarded Best of Zola
I've done 3 separate shoots with Melanie so far (engagement, pre-wedding, and holiday minis) and every photo from every shoot is amazing. Melanie makes everything so effortless during shoots, she gives great direction, while also listening to any ideas we have. My fiancé and I can be kind of awkward in front of a camera, we're the definition of the Talladega Nights "I'm not sure what to do with my hands" Ricky Bobby quote, and Melanie does an amazing job making our awkwardness look beautiful and fun. Most importantly, all of the photos Melanie has taken of me and my fiancé bring me such joy. Just looking at them puts a smile on my face, the shots she takes perfectly capture how happily in love we are. They're photos that I will cherish forever (not to mention I look pretty good in them!).
