Mark and Brittany are truly exceptional at what they do. My husband and I are not typically in front of a camera, but Mark made us instantly comfortable in a way that allowed him to truly capture the moment between us instead of feeling like models posing for a job. We had a small wedding with no formal wedding planner or runner for the day, but Brittany and Mark helped everything to go smoothly, and we truly couldn’t have done it without them. Beyond all that, the images are truly breathtaking. Mark has an intrinsic ability to scan a space and find the most beautiful piece of it. I have never seen the inside of a train station look so magical! If you choose This Insane Idea for your special day, you will not be disappointed!

Blossom and Bee were one of the approved vendors on our venue's list. It was an easy process working with Penny and her team. I was able to pin inspo pictures on a Pinterest board as well as share pictures of my dress, my husband's tux, and our wedding invitation suite. As a bride of Indian origin, I wanted bright spring florals that also complimented the industrial/French look of our venue. I was overwhelmed by the number of color combinations I was interested in and the team helped me narrow down to the best color scheme. Something to note is that you will need to provide bud vases and rent floral stands from B&B if that is something you want in your decor. Luckily my venue provided a moon gate that could be used for the ceremony, and the venue staff repurposed the florals from the ceremony to the sweetheart table.

My makeup put stayed all night and looked fantastic in photos. Mandy was also incredibly professional and organized.

Monica Nguyen Makeup

  • Beauty professional
  • Serves Manalapan, NJ

Monica Nguyen has been a makeup artist for 9 years working backstage at runway shows and on set for fashion, editorial, and commercial shoots. Her career began in the wedding industry, which is still a big part of what she does today. The biggest joy she receives is knowing she is there to pamper and take care of the person sitting in her chair, especially on one of the most important days of their life. No event is too big or too small as she places great importance on each and every one of them.

Awarded Best of Zola
First of all, I discovered Monica’s Instagram page through a mutual friend, who is a stylist at the top of her game (hair). Browsing through Monica’s posts, I immediately loved her work - every look she created was flawless - smooth and natural, while highlighting and accentuating each subject’s best features. And that’s exactly what I wanted for my wedding look - to be my most beautiful, flawless SELF; to look amazing but still look like myself. When I asked my friend/hair stylist for her opinion of Monica’s work, she appropriately referred to it as “true artistry”. Fast forward to my wedding day. After having had one makeup trial with Monica trying to incorporate some of my wedding hues (at my request) months prior, I decided on the morning of my wedding that I wanted to go for a different palette (warm and neutral) and an overall different look. Not only was Monica unphased by this last minute (and, for me, daring) change of plans, but she effortlessly executed the look beyond my expectations. I was admittedly a little nervous when I made the request that morning (I felt bad putting her on the spot like that), but i was confident in Monica’s talent and I was also reassured and calmed by her laid back and warm nature. And it seems that it was all meant to be. I have never looked and felt as beautiful as I did that day. I received countless compliments and to this day am still reminded of how “stunning” I looked, all thanks to Monica. People have sought out her services through me, and I will always keep her on speed dial for special occasions. Six years after having had the pleasure of booking Monica, I still occasionally browse through her portfolio and see that she continues to do it all (from weddings to editorial and fashion week). I’m impressed by her professionalism and humility with all her clients; she’s true to her craft, and gives every client the VIP treatment she believes is deserved.

Victor with Victory Photographs was a lifesaver after we had issues with our original photographer and had to find a replacement. He was responsive, kind, and respectful in all of our communications leading up to the big day. On the wedding day itself, Victor struck the perfect balance between guiding us to get great photos while also letting my husband and I enjoy our reception. His friendly demeanor put us at ease. The end results speak for themselves - Victor captured all of the special moments of our wedding beautifully with his high quality work. My husband and I felt relieved knowing we were in good hands with Victor. We'd highly recommend him to any couple looking for a talented, professional photographer who also makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera.
