Awarded Best of Zola
We're a photography team and had the pleasure of working with Brittney at two weddings this year. Her exceptional organization, clear communication, and eagerness to step in wherever needed made the days run seamlessly for everyone, including us. Brittney contacted us almost two months in advance to discuss the timelines and ensure we had the chance to express any specific photography needs. This proactive approach is invaluable, and we truly appreciated it. Brittney's attention to detail was impressive; she asked all the right questions and had clear, thoughtful answers to ours. On the day of the weddings, she went above and beyond, demonstrating not only her skill but also genuine care for the couple and their special day. Even with meticulous planning, weddings can be chaotic, but Brittney handled every challenge with grace and efficiency. If you're a couple looking for someone who embodies these qualities, Brittney is the perfect choice.

Our service is built on intentionality: from sourcing coffee locally to partnering with regional bakers, artisans, and beverage makers, we proudly keep our offerings community-driven and high-quality.

I booked The Local Sip for both my rehearsal dinner and my wedding, and they absolutely exceeded every expectation. For our rehearsal, they provided a beautiful coffee and matcha service that our guests are still talking about. The drinks were delicious, thoughtfully crafted, and added such a cozy, memorable touch to the night. For the wedding day, they handled a full bartending service — including a stunning champagne wall — and it was truly a highlight of the celebration. They customized a drink menu perfectly to match our vision, and every detail felt intentional and elevated. Communication throughout the entire process was excellent. They were responsive, professional, and so easy to work with. On the event days, their team went above and beyond to make everything smooth, fun, and stress-free. I cannot recommend The Local Sip enough. Their service, quality, and care made both events unforgettable. If you’re looking for a coffee or bartending team who truly delivers, this is it!

As a passionate chef and bartender, I blend culinary artistry with the craft of mixology to create unforgettable experiences. With years of experience catering weddings and special events, I take pride in crafting menus and drinks that tell a story, using fresh, high-quality ingredients to make every bite and sip memorable. My passion lies in curating unique menus and cocktails that reflect the local flavors and the personal stories of each event I cater. My goal is always to bring people together over good food and creative cocktails, leaving guests delighted and events truly exceptional.

We couldn’t be happier with Amores y Sabores Catering for our wedding! We wanted something fun, flavorful, and inclusive for all of our guests — and they delivered beyond our dreams. The taco bar was a huge hit, with perfectly seasoned meats, fresh toppings, and warm tortillas. But what really impressed us was the vegan taco bar — even our non-vegan friends went back for seconds! The flavors were bold, fresh, and beautifully presented. The team was professional, attentive, and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Our guests are still talking about the food, and we’ll be recommending Amores y Sabores to everyone we know!”

Jennifer Iovanne, Piano and Voice 

5.0

Kirkland, WA
  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $300

Raised in Olympia, WA, Jennifer discovered her passion for music early in life. As the daughter of a performing arts executive director and costume designer, her interest in the arts was encouraged. She began studying piano at age 5 and by age 12, she was accompanying local choirs and soloists. She has performed for events in Western Washington's top venues, including Four Seasons Hotel, Bastyr Chapel, Fairmont Olympic Hotel, Salish Lodge, Seattle Aquarium, Washington State Governor's Mansion, and many others. In addition, Jennifer is the Founder and Executive Director of Iovanne Music Academy.

Jennifer played piano and sang during our wedding ceremony. From the start, she was very helpful in identifying songs for each part of the wedding. She prepared arrangements and vocals for a few special songs we wanted to include and added flourishes that went beyond our expectations. She even reimagined "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" for our fantasy of exiting to a corny 80's pop song. Throughout the process, Jennifer was helpful with sending samples and ideas, and even met up with us in person to play some of her ideas. As a gay couple, we wanted someone who was affirming and Jennifer made us feel comfortable and welcome throughout the process. We would highly recommend her for your piano and vocal needs. She truly made the ceremony special and unforgettable!

With over a decade of experience behind the camera, I have built a body of work that blends moody, timeless imagery with authentic storytelling, tailored to each couple’s vision.

Jen was the easiest and most wonderful vendor we worked with for our wedding. From start to finish, she was kind, patient, and incredibly professional. She managed to keep our timeline perfectly on track (which my entire family noted since our family is so gigantic!) while still making everyone feel relaxed and comfortable. What stood out most was how accommodating she was; every little request I had. Her communication and turnaround time were impeccable; we received our photos so quickly, and every single one was stunning. Honestly, I’d hire her again in a heartbeat if I could. She deserves to charge more for the level of care, talent, and professionalism she brings. Jen went above and beyond in every way, and we’re so grateful to have had her capture our day so beautifully.

If you are looking for beautiful, local, seasonal, flowers that make you feel all of the feels-- this is the vendor you are looking for. Kaleigh and Jeff pour so much love into your flowers, from planting the seeds months in advance all the way up to harvesting them the week of your wedding-- you can feel the care and love! They were super communicative, shared vision boards, were willing to adjust with additional requests and order updates, and were truly SO kind. They really want to get to know who you are so that they can create flower arrangements that reflect just that! They allow you to dream big and their magical abilities bring everything to life. Another portion of their business aside from weddings is bouquet delivery subscriptions. If this is available while you are planning your wedding, I highly recommend also getting their bouquets! This was an incredible addition to get us excited for our flowers leading up to our day and for a few weeks after to allow us to continue to celebrate! Thank you Kaleigh & Jeff!!
