When I first started wedding planning, I was trying to save as much as possible to meet our budget…read more I told myself I didn't need a wedding planner. Then my venue required a day of coordinator. I am so glad this was a requirement, because a bride like me who is indecisive and somewhat of a procrastinator needs a wedding coordinator! I had NO idea how vital wedding coordinators are not only for the day of your wedding, but for the time leading up to it. I ended up going with Savvy Events because I loved DeNeitra's personality--organized, willing to work towards figuring out what my vision was (I am very indecisive) and so excited about her job. Leading up to my wedding I unexpectedly had to get a new job and start planning a move. I was so thankful somebody could help me with wedding planning!! DeNeitra stayed on top of deadlines, vendor appointments, and finalizing all of those final details. We shopped together for center pieces, flowers and decorations and we found everything at stores she took me to. She even picked up last minute decorations for me when I didn't have time to find them. She helped with the dreaded seating chart, connected me with an amazing calligrapher and coordinated the rehearsal without letting anyone get stressed out. What I loved most about the planning process is that she knew exactly how to incorporate our personality and taste into the wedding. DeNeitra communicated consistently with me the month leading up to the wedding through email, phone calls and Skype chats. By the time we got to our wedding day I knew exactly how things were going to play out. She was so excited about executing "the vision" of our wedding that I knew there was NO reason I should be stressed on the day of my wedding. I completely trusted DeNeitra and her team from the beginning.! Having interviewed and worked with many vendors, I consider this the most important thing to look for in a wedding vendor. Thank you DeNeitra and the Savvy team, you were worth every penny and my wedding would not have been the same without you!

I hired Karina as the DJ for my daughter's Bat Mitzvah in May 2022. Unfortunately, several things during the event did not match what we had discussed in advance. There were equipment issues at the beginning of the event. Only one wired microphone was brought, and it worked only within a short distance of the stage. Because of this, part of the ceremony couldn't happen in the space we had planned until the venue provided an additional microphone. My daughter had prepared a live performance and had rehearsed the sound beforehand. During the event there were sound problems and the music played over her track, which made it difficult for guests to hear her clearly. We had also shared our music preferences ahead of time, but much of the music played did not match the style we requested. Some additional services listed on our invoice (such as glow face/body painting and special items for the Bat Mitzvah girl) were also not provided. After the event I reached out privately to discuss these concerns but did not receive a response. On a positive note, the MC did a great job keeping the kids engaged and helped maintain a fun atmosphere on the dance floor.

Karina brought an incredible level of energy and enthusiasm that kept every single guest--kids, teens, adults, and grandparents--on the dance floor the entire night. The party was an absolute hit; the vibe was electric, fun, and joyful from the moment she started until the very last song. What really set her apart were the amazing production elements she brought. The **glowing balloon party** was pure magic--beautiful, colorful LED balloons everywhere that lit up the room and created such a wow factor for photos and the kids' excitement. And that **cool smoke-shooting gun**? Total game-changer! It added such dramatic, high-energy moments during the big dances and entrances--everyone was cheering and screaming with delight. It felt like a professional concert-level experience, not just a regular party. Karina is not only super talented with music selection (perfect mix of current hits, classics, and Jewish favorites that got everyone involved), but she's also warm, professional, and genuinely cares about making the night special. She read the room perfectly, kept the flow seamless, and made sure my daughter felt like the star of the show. If you want your simcha to be talked about for years to come, book DJ Karina--you won't regret it. She turned what could have been a nice event into an epic, unforgettable celebration. Mazel tov and thank you, Karina--you're the best! Highly recommend--5 stars aren't enough!

We recently got married in October 2010 and hired Roberto Valenzuela to shoot our wedding in…read moreSavannah, Georgia, my hometown. We did not know then that we would soon have THE MOST EXQUISITE, MOST BREATH-TAKING, MOST EMOTIONAL-LADEN, MOST STUNNING PICTURES we have ever seen, for any occasion much less our very own wedding. Roberto captured not only the most beautiful shots that we wanted, but also used his own careful expertise, uncanny vision and passion to capture shots that we COULD HAVE NEVER EVEN IMAGINED! Roberto's shots that he envisioned were our absolute favorites. We quickly realized why he is BEST at what he does! Roberto did all of this without pomp and circumstance. His friendly demeanor and professionalism made him seem more like a local artist rather than a 50 time International award winning photographer based out of Beverly Hills. He flew out 2 days early before the wedding to scope out the landscape, the venue, to meet our families involved so that he would be prepared to capture the day of our lives without missing a single meaningful moment. When my husband and I look at our pictures, we feel the emotion of the day all over again. And even when our families and our friends look at our pictures, they too can feel the emotion, the temperature, the textures, the sand and the overall joy of the day. This is a priceless unexpected gift Roberto gave us and the mark of a true consummate professional photographer! We recommend Roberto to EVERY bride, no matter where you are having your wedding. Aside from choosing YOUR husband-to-be, it will be the best decision you will make!

He also recently shot our wedding in October 2011 and I can't wait to get these photos. I met with Roberto a year ago. He was the first vendor I chose for my wedding and it was one of the best vendor choices I made. Gidji, I saw your photos in Roberto's portfolio and your photos are unbelievably stunning. He has absolutely no ego. I would never hire someone with ego-it's a sign of insecurity, and Roberto is just the kindest, most fun and compassionate wedding photographer around. He's also the best. So, I just want to tell future brides that this is the right choice. Roberto is 100% the right person for the job. I feel like I have to defend him from reviews like Gidji's. Ridiculous.

The old joke continues to live on. Which profession is the oldest scam throughout history? Lawyers?…read morePsychologists? Believe it or not, the punchline is photographers. Earlier this year, I said a little prayer for my buddy who was getting married. I told him I could plan an escape to Canada if he just gives me the OK. He told me not necessary. He also told me his bride to be had picked out a wedding photographer. That was a news to me considering I know most of the local wedding photographers in Long Beach. He then told me about this group of women photographers that will be their photogs. Automatically, I was very skeptical. Wedding photography is a male-dominated industry for a reason. One, for a take charge types, man tends to be more assertive in terms of getting the type of shots they wanted. For a physical role, it's not easy to mount all these equipments and carry them from one location setup to the next location. If a family wants a pre-wedding photo at a beach, then wants to go a park for a post wedding photos. Three locations in one hour, it can really take a toll. Then comes the emotional abuse where criticisms sometimes mounts on the photographer by the parents of the bride & groom. Worst off, the biggest whiner can be the bride herself. You not only have to do the job, but you also have to put up a lot of stress, energy, and a lot of unwanted criticisms from people telling you on how to do your job. I know it only because I worked in two weddings, a prom, and a graduation as an assistant to the main photographer. I have seen a lot of breakdowns. It's not just women that can be seen crying at the end of the exhausting day...men too. So you can guess I'm more cynical than ever about the choice of having not one, but three female photographers for a wedding. To my amazement, the reason this company got chosen as the wedding photographer was that their photos was featured in a wedding magazine my friend's future wife have seen and instantly she felt in love with the photos. Then to my horror, I found out that they charged a lot more than some of the more reliable and reputable wedding photographers in the same area. Needless to say I am getting anxious about the whole thing. I bought those concerns to my buddy. Guess what?......he has no say on about this. Apparently, it's HER wedding. LOL True to form, on the day of the wedding, some of my concerns were subdued. Also they were positives on having female photographers over male photographers. For one thing, they get more access to the bride. Hate to even admit it, the photos on the bride are more important than on the groom (hahahaha, guys, you'll find that out real soon). The other advantage was that they are a little bit more subtle on the way on how they carry things without being abrasive or aggressive. Instead of being the paparazzi, they are more in the backgrounds taking photos without interrupting the guests or taking photos on every click. The main photographer that day was Andrea. I had the pleasure of meeting and talking to her since I was the Best Man in the wedding. I got a big sense that she was much better at reassuring the parents and having things under control. Even if she didn't, she would never let it be known to the wedding crowd. Probably I would be the only one that would know since I would make the same mistakes when I was working as a photographer. The wedding itself was a beautiful event. Right afterward, the photographers gave a little preview or review of the photos that would be on the album. They shown a little slide show teaser on the portable laptop. Wedding guest can see the slide show of chosen photos on the monitor. It's a smart move only because it gets the guest excited and wanting to order the photos down the road. If you scratched the comments about what I thought and my biased eyes on the quality of the photos, it would be totally up to the one important customer...the Bride. The lovely bride love the photos and the caring attentions to the details. She appreciated the communications about the concerns or questions she might have. My pal and his new wife have interviewed a few potential photographers, but she felt more comfortable with Red Loft after they presented details about on how they will approached taking pictures for the wedding and what packages will be included. So far they have kept their words on all the arrangements of photos and the preview of the photos. Believe me, there are horror stories you want to avoid about certain wedding photographers. It was a satisfaction that made both the bride and groom happy about the memories that they will cherish for the rest of their lives. That was the only thing that matters the most at the end. I definitely would recommend any couple of looking over their work and considered them for taking photos of your precious moment in your life. For once, Lawyers wins out the punchline to that joke.

I was married last November and found Red Loft Studios through a random Google image search. From that moment on, I was pining over them. Honestly, it was more than I wanted to spend on photography, but it's the most fresh, classy, and fun photography I've seen. As they put it it's "not your mother's wedding photography." I had to have them! Andrea was our photographer. From the moment I met Andrea I knew I was hiring her. She "got" me completely. She is fun, enthusiastic, smart, and so creative. She is someone I would be friends with. When we took our engagement photos she made us feel relaxed and we laughed all day with her. On our wedding day, she was able to get all of the shots we wanted without being intrusive or making anyone uncomfortable. They were able to generate a preview of some of the photos during out wedding and the guests were raving. Once we got all of the proofs we were ecstatic! The photos are amazing and some of the best photos I've ever seen. We've received copious compliments about our photos that are fun and different. I HIGHLY recommend them :)
