Catering
Catch a Fire Pizza
My personal pet peeve is cold bread. Happens ALL THE TIME at weddings. I love these guys because they are always hot and fresh. Their pizza is great and their grilled veggies are AMAZING!
DJs
UpBeats DJ
Doug is awesome and they have the coolest lighting set up. Great for when you want a reception with a club style party vibe!
Event Rentals
A&S Party Rental
I feel really grateful to have met Cary Girardot and know he will take good care of my couples
Ruth and Rose
Mismatched vintage China place settings. These are unique and amazingly beautiful
Photographers
MasterWorks Photography
Michelle thinks the first Star Trek movie is the best. It is not. The ONLY good star Trek movie is Wrath of Kahn. She will dress in costume for a themed wedding though and that makes up for her veeger obsession.
Venues
Krippendorf Lodge at the Cincinnati Nature Center
An amazing venue and the venue fees support an amazing non-profit organization
Pattison Park Lodge
If you want an outdoor wedding with an indoor back up, this is a great choice and affordable!
Rhinegeist Brewery
I don’t even drink beer (I prefer cider and Irish whiskey). But I LOVE doing events here because I know it will be a fun reception! Whether it is a wedding or one of my MeetUps, I often suggest Rhinegeist. When you call ask for Cass or Hannah!
Miscellaneous

Heather and her daughter are great people, they specialize in all inclusive vacations so you can truly relax after all the wedding stress.
Shiri Ayalon – Financial Planner
An amazing financial planner. If you and your partner have a goal for your future, she will help you get there. She is also a strong ally for the LGBT community.
