Wauwatosa, WI
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,000

At heart, I am an adventure enthusiast and lover of simplicity. Each moment in life's grand adventure should be acknowledged as something to be grateful for which is why I love documenting candid and classic moments.

If I had to give you a short review it would be "Hire Alison now!" Longer review, Alison captured our engagement in 2022 and our wedding in fall 2023 and we loved every second of our interactions with her. From the first zoom call to get to know each other to the engagement session, to running into her at a store randomly to our big day and everything in between. Alison truly captures some of the most beautiful photography i've ever seen and she makes you feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. She's a true hype woman keeping things light and playful and fun and you can trust that you will have absolute art once all is said and done. My Husband and truly struggled to pick our favorite photos from both our engagement session and our wedding which is the exact problem you hope to have! She keeps things fun with sweet little reminders along the wedding planning journey and even helps with timelines and fun details if you need it. Finally, she's just a warm and sweet person that we can't wait to hire again for future family photo sessions! You will not be disappointed in your choice with Grace Creatives!

We could not have asked for a better DJ than Steven for our wedding! From the ceremony through cocktail hour and into the reception, he kept everything running so smoothly and brought the perfect energy to every part of the day. His input and suggestions helped the day flow seamlessly and created so many special moments we’ll never forget. Once the reception started, Steven kept the dance floor packed all night long (and even jumped in with some dance moves himself, which our guests absolutely loved)! We got so many compliments from friends and family about how fun, positive, and talented he was. If you’re looking for someone who goes above and beyond and makes your wedding day unforgettable, Steven is the DJ you want. Truly the best!

Ward 3 was absolutely amazing; we were lucky enough to work with Elena as our lead photographer and Irv as our lead videographer and from the start everyone was so communicative and put us at ease even early on in the planning process. They all just kept asking day of, how they could help us make the day go smooth and it really truly meant more than I could ever explain because it showed they weren't just there for photos and a paycheck, but they were there for US as a couple. Super quick turnaround time with sneak peek photos and I'm already blown away by the talent Ward 3 has in their photographers. I cannot wait to see everything else and our video :) Would recommend them too absolutely everyone!

I recently got married on 5/31/25 and reached out to a personal touch for a DJ 13 months before my wedding. We originally set everything up with Jared who is amazing! He made everything so easy we met him in person he explained how their company works and showed us the portal where we would provide all of the details for the DJ. Their pricing was also really well we ended up going with the wireless uplighting and Photo Booth and honestly so glad we did the uplighting it made the entire venue look even better. A month before our wedding we got assigned our DJ, Jonathan, and he couldn’t of been a better DJ. He did an intro call with me and discussed all of my concerns and my schedule and was very detailed in going over my timeline and added extras I wanted. Fast forward to my wedding and he literally killed it. There was a packed dance floor non stop with all ages and his transitions for his music were insane. People kept coming up to us and saying this is the best wedding they have been to the music is so good. We had people keep saying they didn’t want to leave because they didn’t want to stop dancing. Jonathan kept checking in with us through our the night which I appreciated so much and he even made sure to go over our bridal parties names beforehand to make sure he was pronouncing everyone’s name right. Honestly we have several people getting married that we know who have requested a personal touches info because of how good the music was. DJ Jonathan is a GEM and so is Jared. They made the entire process so seamless and they were easily one of the best vendors we worked with. I would rate them 100000/10. They are awesome!!!

Working with Amy through Veronica Rose Weddings was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We chose the month-out package, and from the moment Amy stepped in, she completely took the stress off my shoulders. She immediately connected with all of our vendors, got everyone on the same timeline, and made sure the entire day flowed seamlessly. I can’t even begin to describe how many behind-the-scenes tasks she handled that I would have never thought of, things that made such a big difference and allowed me to be fully present and enjoy the day. Amy was attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely cared about making sure everything went smoothly. On the wedding day, she checked in constantly to make sure we had everything we needed, and she always seemed one step ahead of us. I had a LOT of decor and small details that mattered so much to me, and she placed everything perfectly and it looked beautiful, exactly how I envisioned it. Seeing it all come together brought me so much joy, and I have Amy to thank for that. What stood out most was Amy’s calm and caring presence. She talked to me not just as a planner, but like a friend who truly wanted the day to be perfect for us. Knowing she was there, managing the logistics, advocating for us, and making sure no detail was missed gave me the peace of mind I didn’t think was possible on such a big day. If you are on the fence about getting a planner, especially a month-of coordinator, don’t hesitate. Veronica Rose is incredible. Amy exceeded every expectation, and I am so grateful she was by our side through such an important time. Our day was everything we dreamed of, and Amy played a huge role in making that happen.

My husband & I worked with Sara for our wedding this past July for month-of coordination, and it was a super easy, enjoyable, and fun experience. Sara was personally a joy to work with and we clicked quickly. She remembered every detail from our meetings, kept me organized, and tracked down vendors for answers which helped me immensely. She went above & beyond what I was expecting, and as someone who usually likes control over all of the details I trusted her immediately and knew we were in good hands. Day-of, she hustled so hard and executed on every detail we discussed, making our day worry and stress free. She has a great way with people – making sure everyone in our families knew what they were doing (wrangling 20 people) but in a personable, yet firm way! I will miss working with her, and would recommend her to absolutely anyone. V

Hey! Allow me to introduce myself - I'm Stephanie. Born & raised in Wisco but I have a wandering soul. I love photographing love. Silly love, sweet love, crazy love, & any kind in between. Adventurous couples are my jam - those that aren't afraid to jump in a lake fully clothed or hang out with alpacas in the freezing cold for their shoot. I live for shoots where we are all barefoot, hanging by the lake, enjoying the sunset while I capture the moments.

Her communication from when we first reached out to when the photos were ready was clear, timely and reliable. Her demeanor in each interaction was calm, organized and kind, which helped make the engagement photos comfortable and the wedding day enjoyable. Then there is her talent with photography! We are so happy with our wedding day photos and are so thankful for Stephanie's eye in capturing this day for us so beautifully.

Prior to our wedding day, we were convinced our friends and families would be avoiding the dance floor, opting for card games or the bar but, to my utter shock, there wasn’t a single song we didn't have a group dancing the entire evening. Chris Troka listened to us, who we are as a couple, who our guests would be and absolutely nailed it. He played a wide variety of songs that had everyone from my younger brother to our grandparents entertained.

From your ceremony and reception to an engagement party or rehearsal dinner, let’s save you the stress & leave all the coordination to me!

Awarded Best of Zola
Monique was such an important piece to our big day, it’s hard to put all of the crucial things she did for us into one review. She is a wedding planner that just had the X-factor, she does it all! From day one of working with her, we could tell she wanted the best for us and wanted to make our lives easier by keeping wedding planning fun. One of the greatest things about having Monique was her responsiveness and ability to answer ANY questions we had. There are so many questions that pop up and before we worked with Monique we didn’t know where to go to get them answered, but after working with her it was such a relief to know she would help answer all of them. On our wedding day, she truly made our wedding dream come to life. We still don’t really know how she did it all, especially with our wedding or 250 people. We even added in an extra photo shoot to the timeline and some fun little things, and she helped the day flow so smoothly. All we had to do was get married and enjoy our company! It was so much fun, and a large reason we felt that way was because Monique was there to take care of all the stressors behind the scenes. (She even steamed my dress the morning of!!) If you didn’t know, she also does content creation packages and I think it is one of my favorite things that we decided to do for our wedding. She captured so many special moments and we got to relive our day right away! She sent over all the video and pictures and we are still rewatching and going through all the content she captured to this day.

Hi! I'm Kayla - a traveling Milwaukee wedding photographer - and I'm going to make you cry. Wait, what? Don't worry, not in a bad way. Most of my couples say they cry when receiving their wedding photos from me for the first time. Five, ten, fifty years down the road when you open your wedding album, bet I'll get you again. You'll still be surrounded by your loved ones - remembering the happy tears and laughing until your belly hurts - just as you did on your wedding day.

I cannot recommend Kayla highly enough. She was efficient and on time. She did a great job of wrangling our crazy group. She did a beautiful job capturing our wedding day. She got so many beautiful, small moments I was able to reflect on long after our big day was over, and she even caught things I missed! She was fun and positive and the ultimate hype girl. Not to mention, she did all this just a month after becoming a first time mom. 10/10 HIRE KAYLA!

Aggie's Bakery and Cake Shop has been baking and creating masterpiece wedding cakes for over 40 years and we look forward to working with you! Our cakes are known for incredible texture and flavor and the delicious flavors are the result of a combination of baking mastery and passion that is simply unsurpassed. We use only the highest quality ingredients, recipes, and baking practices resulting in exceptionally delicious and moist cakes.

Aggie's Bakery & Cake Shop was a mixed leading up to our wedding day. The communication style from the owners was rude, rushed, and slow at times, which caused some minor hiccups that were partly my own fault for not reading everything carefully before confirming (wedding brain). However, the end result was absolutely worth it - the two beautiful 3-tiered cakes they created were simply gorgeous, decadent, and had everyone at our wedding raving about the incredible taste. Despite the less-than-ideal communication, Aggie's Bakery delivered on the quality and value of their work, creating cakes that were truly the highlight of our dessert table.

Music and dancing was such an important piece of our wedding and celebration so we wanted it to be electric, and Said absolutely delivered!! We had the call with Said a week before the date and he instantly understood and aligned on our vision and he brought that to life. He carefully selected and created the playlist from our "must-play" songs and his own musicality and experience. Said was great to work with, on-time, and well prepared for the ceremony and reception. He brought all the equipment needed for speeches and the dance party. We would HIGHLY recommend working with Said!!

Hi, I’m Kelsey! I am a wedding photographer! I am obsessed with dogs. I will never not acknowledge a dog near me by saying “puppers”. It is what it is. I would 100% rather be on the beach somewhere with palm trees. I am constantly daydreaming about being in the tropics. I love the color black. If we work together, there is a high chance that will be my outfit color of choice.

One Shot Scott Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day. From our initial consultation, Erin was quick to respond, thorough in her communication, and incredibly organized throughout the entire process. Their attention to detail and ability to pivot seamlessly when needed was invaluable - Erin truly served as our guiding light, ensuring the day ran smoothly and giving us moments to ourselves when we needed them most. The quality of their work was stunning, capturing the beauty and emotion of our special day in a way that felt so personalized and genuine. Erin is not only talented professional, but also a warm and personable individual who made us feel at ease every step of the way. We cannot recommend her highly enough!!

Getting married in WI while living and planning in CA could have been an interesting and difficult process but Amany made everything so easy from start to finish - organized, quick to respond & just the sweetest person to work with. She made the whole process totally stress-free. And Mary… I can’t say enough good things! She is SO talented and truly an artist. We first met on a virtual trial where I felt understood, comfortable and confident in the services to come. She nailed my vision perfectly — soft, glowy, and natural but still totally glam. My makeup lasted all day and night (highly recommend 10 hour day to switch things up from ceremony to reception) and I honestly felt like the most beautiful version of myself. My mom and friends all looked stunning too — everyone was obsessed! The day felt calm, fun, and full of good vibes thanks to Mary. This was not Mary's first rodeo and she was such a helpful joy to have around and someone I could trust throughout the entire day. I can't recommend Wide Eyed Bride more, absolute dream team and best decision I made for my wedding day!
