My now husband and I were dreading the photography part of our wedding. We're both awkward introverts and being in front of a camera does not come naturally to us. David and Julie were a joy to communicate with before the wedding. They took the lead since we had NO idea what we were doing and drove us to a beautiful location for some of our non ceremony shots. We had a small 5 person wedding and all 5 of us really enjoyed working with a David and Julie. We can't wait to see the results!

Studio Julie is the most unique take on wedding photography I've seen. If you want candid moments…read moreyou want Studio Julie. It is exactly why we chose them. We have some beautiful portrait style pictures as well, but so many wonderful moments that help tell the story of our wedding day. David and Julie are such an incredible pair and work harder than the fisherman on Deadliest Catch. We love all of our pictures and really enjoyed working with them. #totoafrica

Hi Nick, Here is why…read morewe chose you, and why will hire you the next time we are in key west just for a party, You were AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! I rang one other person for a quote before I got to speak to you. As soon as I spoke to you on the phone, I just knew you would be brilliant. I stopped ringing after I spoke to you. You were fun, honest and helpful. Whenever I spoke to you, nothing was a problem. Then at the wedding......... you were brilliant. You were on the ball, liaised with EVERYONE. The music was perfect for us: - people kept coming up to us during the night, saying "the music is GREAT" I replied, I knew DJ NINJA NICK would deliver!!!" HAHA. I know you don't like that name. If any one is thinking of hiring a DJ in the Florida Keys who can read a crowd, and pump out the right music: YOU ARE THE MAN. They will not be disappointed. (If they are, get them to ring me!) Our friends expected a party, they got one. Your ability to read us, and play the right music facilitated this for the whole night. Thank you, Thank You, Thank you. Love Nat & Shane. PS: You handle can handled all crazy guests at the wedding, without an issue. I loved that too!!!

We are very particular with our music and also being music lovers, we were very close to ipod-ing our own music for our wedding. We did that late-night random Google search and found Kiss Me at the top. We could tell nick loves what he does he has wedding intuition, and professionalism which was hard to find in the Keys. We were able to thoroughly enjoy our own wedding party because stood guard all night. We had been to another wedding where the dj kept disappearing, But Nick held down the fort and talked to all of vendors. We had a great time getting to know him during our pre-event consultation. He has a lot of wedding DJ-ing experience and helped us envision how our night would unfold. He made planning and organizing stress-free. We knew we could trust him with our schedule. Nick also worked with our unconventional wedding day schedule. He came out for our morning ceremony after DJ-ing for another late-night wedding the night before to help us with the music for our processional and recessional and post-ceremony hour. Everything was seamless and he made sure to confirm the equipment, venue set-up, and timing details with to make sure it was all perfect. Everything turned out beautiful. Nick you were so accommodating and worked so well with all our other vendors. When people tell us that we threw a great party, we tell them it was all you! Thank you so much for being part of our special day! It will be unforgettable.

Our wedding venue was with Danger Charters and Vidal is the photographer they use in their wedding…read morepackages. We aren't Key West locals so planning a wedding from across the country was...stressful. Danger's coordinator put me in touch with Vidal a few weeks prior to the wedding date, and we immediately hit it off like old friends. The day of the wedding, we showed up late due to me having a last minute breakdown over not being able to tie a bow, (lol) and just having wedding day jitters. We find Vidal, and JESUS LUPITA NYONG'O CHRIST, I could not be more thankful this man was our photographer. His personality immediately calmed my nerves. He took control over directing my neurotic ass by explaining what to expect, where I needed to be...he even paid attention to when the boat might hit rough water and directed my husband to make sure I didn't fall over. Vidal took pictures of everyone prior to boarding quickly but clearly knew what he was doing. I appreciate so much that he was so focused and thorough, working with the time we had while maintaining a lighthearted vibe. So many people commented later how much they "loooved the photographer." Vidal definitely made a positive impression. We had a small reception for a couple hours after the ceremony at Grand Vin and booked Vidal for an additional hour. His prices were reasonable and honestly, you could charge so much more, Vidal! Your energy was so perfect, I'm so glad our paths crossed and the photos are AMAZING!! Next time we're down there I'm calling your ass for a night out! Oh, Vidal also does wedding planning, I have no doubt he's amazing at that as well. If he told me tomorrow he's a dentist now, I'd make an appointment!

If you are thinking about having a wedding in Key West, FL and are looking for a wedding officiant,…read moreSteve Torrence is your guy. I'm not sure where to start but he is highly recommended all over town and after our wedding, we figured out why. First, you can contact him any time through email or phone and he will get back to you asap. Steve is the nicest man you will ever meet and is genuinely into your wedding from start to finish. He is also one of the lowest costing wedding officiant in Key West, I think he really enjoys what he does and doesn't want to raise the price. Here is what we did: We spoke to Key West Cakes about getting a cake for our wedding. The lady there used to be in the wedding planning business down there and knew just about everyone, especially the venues and people to avoid. Anyway, she recommended Steve to us so we decided to inquire. We contacted Steve a few months before our wedding, told him we wanted him be our officiant. He responded back and told us that he will mark us on the calendar and when we get in town, give him a call to meet up and discuss what route we wanted to go. When we arrived we contacted him and he said he would come to us which was nice because we had a million things to do and had limited time. He met us at the Hyatt Key West Resort and Spa and he was the funniest and nicest guy you could ever imagine. Since we were worried about rain, he had his church on standby incase we needed to use it. That was an added bonus! He asked us what we'd like him wear, a suit, a officiant gard, ect. He chose the garb because it made the pictures look neat. He told us everything we needed to know and to remember to breathe. You can even to a butterfly release if you want. On wedding day, he was early, came prepared, and calmed our nerves a bit. The wedding went better than planned at Fort Zachary Taylor Park/Beach and the rest is history. He signed our papers and we received our official license in the mail a few weeks later. Steve was the best and we are glad he was part of our special day! FYI - Megan of MEC Images was our wedding photographer and can be found in Key West as well. Megan and Steve have been doing wedding together for years and this really helps because they work great together.

I was lucky enough to find Eric for our 110 person wedding in North Georgia. I am so, so happy that…read moreI did because Eric was THE most important person at the wedding (other than my groom of course!) Eric came to the wedding with his working shoes on - he was incredibly engaged and ahead of schedule the entire day. Instead of coming to me with questions as I was getting ready, he came to me with solutions and updated me on the process of his work. Not only did he act as our day-of-coordinator, he also acted as our florist last minute! I had put my mother in charge of arranging our DIY florals from Costco, and Eric immediately saw that the situation required a professional hand. He arranged everything in the most beautiful way, and we received compliments on the flowers and greenery all night. My only regret with working with Eric, as I told him, is that I didn't hire him for the entire wedding weekend! I can't recommend him enough - THANK YOU Eric!!

Working with Eric was by far the worst and most stressful part of our wedding experience. Far from…read morealleviating our troubles and making our lives easier, it became apparent the more we worked with him that he didn't have a high level of attention to detail, dropped the ball on a number of things, and simply wasn't executing at close to a high level to help us "plan" our wedding. Eric only had a few key responsibilities: (a) day of coordination and (b) sourcing a handful of vendors (hair/ makeup, videographer, DJ, and florals) -- we planned everything else ourselves.  Despite this slim list of responsibilities, Eric was unreliable, not proactive, and unapologetic: 1. After taking our full deposit for the hair and make up stylist, Eric failed to follow through on the contract and never booked the stylist. We found this out two months later, right before our supposed trial appointment (for which we had to fly in out of state) when we reached out to the stylist directly and learned that Eric had never followed through on the booking. There was no apology and we were left scrambling to book the stylist ourselves. Thankfully, she was still available on our wedding day but we couldn't believe that Eric failed to book her after taking our deposit. 2. Eric failed to properly coordinate audio during the day of our wedding. First, he failed to tell the DJ to set up a speaker outside for our ceremony and, even worse, he failed to inform our videographer that a string quartet was to perform at our ceremony. Accordingly, our videographer did not bring any mics for the quartet and we have learned after the fact that none of the audio of their beautiful performance was captured.  Eric's response to this was to have us ask the quartet to re-record their entire performance -- which we found to be unhelpful and completely unacceptable. 3. Eric's idea of preparing vendors was to circulate a "day of" itinerary -- and little else. This left our photographers and string quartet emailing us for details in the lead up to the wedding. He also failed to provide us and our hotel with the names / contacts of the shuttle bus drivers for the wedding day, leaving us and all our guests in the dark about when transportation would arrive. Hiring Eric as our wedding planner is the largest and only regret we have during our entire wedding process. We hope other couples look elsewhere for their wedding planning and coordinating needs (or just plan it on your own).
