I loved how the pictures turned out, and the photographer was very helpful and did his homework in studying our timeline. I liked the portal setup and it helped in planning out the events.
The communication through email could have been better, and I also would have liked to have talked to the photographer more than a week before the wedding to get to know his personality better.

Lili & Lime seemed like the perfect fit initially. However, on my wedding day, I wished I had worked with a different company to find my photographer and videographer. I gave them a 2-star rating because even after all the disappointment, I loved the photographer and videographer we ended up with and would work with them independently again. Initially, Lili & Lime asked us to pick a photographer and videographer, and we did. Some weeks later, they sent a message saying the people we had chosen were unavailable and they sent us a list of 3 to pick from instead. We did. The conversations over email seemed promising and we thought they would lead us to a stress-free wedding day. However, 2 days before the wedding, the videographer sent an email asking similar questions we had already answered to Lili & Lime. Then, a day before my wedding, the photographer wanted to get in contact to ask the same questions, yet again, that we had answered to Lili & Lime and the Videographer. I forwarded the email. I found out on my wedding day that the videographer, the
photographer, and the assistant don't talk to each other until they all show up on the wedding day. On the wedding day, each had a different address of where to arrive. There was a lot of miscommunication and only the photographer showed up to the right location. The groom missed an hour-long session with the assistant photographer because she had been given the wrong address and was at a different location. The correct addresses and itinerary for the wedding day had been communicated with Lili & Lime before. There is no reason why this should have happened. The groom tried to get in contact with Lili & Lime and had no luck. Customer service was closed. It was very stressful. It just so happened the lead photographer had worked with the assistant before and he was able to get in contact with her. Otherwise, I'm not sure she would have found the right place and we would have had to continue our day with a missing photographer. I would avoid using Lili & Lime services to hire a photographer and videographer again.

I would highly recommend Lily and Lime for your wedding photographers! Our lead photographer was Tracy and she was great to work with. Our associate photographer fell through a few days before the wedding and Lily and Lime were very apologetic and found an other associate photographer who was available for our wedding day. We received our photos a few weeks after our wedding and had over 2,000 photos to look through! I would refer any couples who are looking for professional photographers for their wedding day to Lily and Lime!

We weren't originally planning on getting a photographer since we thought it would be out of our budget but I decided to look anyways. We found Lily and Lime and saw that the price was super reasonable so we went with it. The service was excellent and the photographer was super awesome. We are so glad we decided to get a photographer and if you're on the fence as well then I would really recommend Lily and Lime.

My photographer was AMAZING! However I wish I’d found her on her own, rather than through Lily and Lime. Her editing looked fantastic on her personal business account, but turns out she doesn’t even edit my photos, she just takes them. Also the lack of communication with the company isn’t cool, and the fact that I don’t get any sneak peeks. Not one photo until my whole album is ready 6-8 weeks later 🙄. Which is a real bummer since we had an entirely unplugged wedding! I have no photos of my most special day :( Friends of mine used Lily and Lime and got sneak peeks within a week…. Not sure what happened with me!

We got some beautiful photos and the photographers and videographer were so nice. Some of the indoor photos weren’t as great, but that’s probably due to the lighting in our venue rather than anything the photographers did. Still waiting on our video (almost two months since our wedding day), but we got our photos right on time. Prices for prints on their site seem too high (and the site itself isn’t the easiest to use), but we did get a print credit and the cost overall was good.

SCAM!! You are not talking to a “planner”. You will speak to a different underpaid customer service representative each time. They refuse to let you speak to your photographer until the week before your wedding, and in my case our photographer CANCELED two weeks before our wedding. Had to fight for my money back. READ THE CONTRACT and DO NOT book these people unless it’s absolutely your last resort!! You will REGRET it.

I went with Lily and Lime after little luck pursuing photographers I was familiar with and I was very hesitant up until our photographer, Josh, showed up. The communication with lily and lime prior to the event was up and down- very automated. I did not get to pick my photographer- when I entered my date and location the website said only one photographer was available that day- fine and dandy but I did not know who the photographer was until the week before our wedding. I was just looking for peace of mind there was a real human designated to work my wedding and I wanted to look at their work.
Josh Krause, our photographer, has done beautiful work and was punctual and professional. He was familiar with our venue and was very perceptive to my vision for our big day. He was everywhere and captured so many great photos. So many of my guests thought he was a family friend and commented on how great he did at being everywhere.
Our photos were returned to us in 32 days which I was pleased about. Some of the editing looks like it could be better but that’s not left up to the photographer in this situation. I am very excited to get our photo album!
I would use Lily and Lime again if I was in a similar situation as before- unable to book my preferred photographers. For the price I am very happy for the services provided.

I was overwhelmed by trying to find a photographer for our wedding, so I looked into Lily and Lime. It was easy to book (and rebook a couple times due to covid-related delays). The packages and availability were straight-forward, which I appreciated after often struggling to find this basic info on other photography websites. The website portal is easy to use and very organized. Everyone I spoke to was helpful and nice. On the day of, our photographer Alexa was fabulous - very professional, easy to work with, and took beautiful photos! We felt really happy with our decision to book them!

We loved working with Lily & Lime. My bride and I were trying to be smart with our budget, and we were attracted by Lili & Lime's great prices. Because of that, we were able to get a photographer to cover everything all the way from getting ready to the exit kiss, for the same price that other photographers charged just for the main wedding + reception shoot.
The photographer was super nice and very helpful in giving pointers without being too pushy. The photos turned out great as well, and were ready only a few weeks after the wedding. The only thing I would have liked better would have been if could have gotten just one or two photos the next day for sharing to social.
All and all, it was great and would highly recommend!

I got married in Brooklyn in August 2018 and hired a photographer, Raymond , through Lily and Lime. I went with Lily and Lime because of their affordable packages and because of convenience. Navigating the website was really easy, and it was also easy to reserve a photographer. Raymond was very professional and so positive throughout the day. I looked at his portfolio to choose him beforehand. I was able to have a conversation with him before the wedding. He was really great to work with! I would recommend Lily and Lime especially if you are looking for an affordable photographer and don’t need that much contact with the him or her before booking. It worked out well for us!

Lily & Lime is a great choice for wedding or event photography. Their customer support staff responds quickly to inquiries, their online platform is user friendly, and their photographers are professional.

Lily and Lime was FANTASTIC!
Overall: They were incredibly easy to work with. You can pick your photographer based on who is available that day. Before your wedding, you have to fill out what you expect your timeline to look like for the photographer to prepare. Our photographer called us the week before to get a more detailed timeline and the day of the wedding she was on top of it! She took pictures of anything and everything and we are so very grateful to have found her using this service.
Budget: The amount you pay is based on the time you want, not the name of the photographer. There was no guesswork in pricing. It was easy picking the photographer right for our wedding without being worried if they were within budget.
Turnaround time: I have heard from several people that have waited over a year to get their wedding photographs back. I feel with Lily and Lime there was a nice middle person to make sure we got what we needed in a timely manner.
If you don't have a specific photographer you want to work with, this is the best route you can go.

If you know don't know where to start with wedding photography, Lily & Lime should be your FIRST stop. They have a wonderful online platform that allowed me to let them know what kind of photography experience my wife and I wanted to have on our special day. The photographer was professional and friendly and did an amazing job taking pictures. However, I wish the photographer was more creative and captured more than what we asked for.

Their professionalism and customer service is outstanding! They work with you if there's an issue and treat you like you're their only customer. I highly recommend them.

My husband and I were a little hesitant to work with Lily & Lime given the “hands-offness” of the photography crew up until the wedding week but we loved the price L&L offers compared to going direct to the photographer/videographer. The Lily & Lime process and platform was straight forward and if we were ever confused or had questions L&L support team was on it. The automated emails along the way if/when there are specific actions that need completed in a timely manner were helpful.
CHOSING YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER IS PROBABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THIS PROCESS. Do some online stalking of your photographer to make sure you like them beyond the information L&L gives you ( first name, picture, small portfolio). Cross reference the internet for that photographer’s name in the area you’re searching and review their individual reviews on the other wedding sites since most of L&L reviews are on L&L process and not the photographer you may or may not chose. The thing about L&L is that you don’t interact with your photographer until a week before the wedding. The week before the wedding is probably one the craziest weeks of your life, so my one area of improvement is to allow the couple to engage with the photographer a little sooner. Although I understand why it’s structured this way, it makes it a little more crazy if you don’t opt for engagement photos to interact with your photographer sooner.
The week of your wedding you'll receive your photographer's contact info and if they’re good (like ours was) they’ll reached out to you to introduce themselves and discuss the important parts of your wedding and certain shots you’d like to capture. We received our photos and video very promptly as promised and they’re wonderful. Overall we are pleased with the service, product, and our photographer, especially for the value and price.

Lily & Lime was a cost effective way for us to get our wedding photography and we were very pleased! I really liked the photographer we picked through them as well and the customer service reps were super as there were a few minor snags that needed to be fixed along the way.

We were given a discount code in an email from Lily & Lime which we used to buy a photography package for our wedding. We paid a deposit to get locked in and the website displayed two future payments we would have to make. When we logged in to pay our second payment the amount due was higher by the tune of a few hundred dollars. I decided to reach out to them to find out what happened.
Four emails and two phone calls and they still haven't figured it out. After the first phone call they immediately admitted this was their mistake and assured me it would be solved in 1-2 business days. It has now been a week and a half since I reached out to Lily & Lime to have this corrected. When the time frame they give me goes by I have to be the one to reach back out to them to let them know they haven't fixed the issue; they do not follow up at all even when they assured me they would.
I've spoken to a few different representatives now and they're all very friendly, but seem to tell you they'll fix it just to get you off the phone so they can bump the problem down the line.
I have very little confidence they will be reliable on the day of our wedding and will be asking for a refund for the deposit we made. I feel like I've been very patient and understanding but Lily & Lime just does not seem capable of delivery a quality product.

We hired Gianna - she was really great to work with! Very professional and efficient. The pricing was fair and the photos look amazing. We got a discount by purchasing our photography package way in advance of the wedding (10 months ahead).

We had Ashley as our Main Photographer, and Chris as our Videographer.
We loved our time with Lily and Lime, they were just our style and were willing to do anything to get some amazing shots on our special day. They were laid back, not too pushy, and gave us some really special photos of our day that we would not have gotten otherwise. Our one issue was that the second photographer that was supposed to take the groom and groomsmen to a different area for their photos before the ceremony so that my bridesmaids and I could get photos before the ceremony as well, had to be told multiple times to actually do so. I ended up making one of the groomsmen get my husband and the other groomsmen together to get the photos started. They didn't start taking the groomsmen photos until 45 minutes before the ceremony, which made everything before the ceremony late, and I was still outside when guests began to arrive.
Besides that we had some beautiful photos and memories all caught by our lovely photographer and videographer.

My Husband and I used Lily and Lime for our wedding photos. The process was very easy from booking until the day of. All of our requests and need to know information went into an online portfolio for the photographer. We used Chuck and he was great! From the moment he got there until he left, he really catered to our wants and made she to capture all of the important shots! They were very timely in getting our photos back to us!

Wendy with Lily and Lime was our photographer and made our day such a breeze, and we truly enjoyed working with her. My husband and I are both laid back, and wanted to extend that feel to our wedding with forgoing a lot of the "traditions" and just spending time celebrating with our friends and family. Wendy totally understood our views, and really went with that flow. As we had never worked with a professional photographer before, she guided us through everything, and really captured the feel of us, and our venue in her photographs. Overall, Lily and Lime was such a pleasure to work with. Doing pretty much everything online made it so easy, and took a lot of stress out of booking a photographer. The online forms they provide for you to fill out also adds to the ease and gives the photographer much needed information that they utilize. The customer service rep, Maddy was also awesome. She is very professional and courteous, and kept us up-to-date on every step of the process, while also sending us emails to remind us to complete certain stages (which trust me, you will appreciate). We received sneak peeks of some of the photos within a week of our wedding, all the photos within two weeks and were able to download/purchase within 6 weeks. They processed them very quickly, which was great. We really enjoyed working with Lily and Lime and their staff, and definitely recommend their services if you are looking for a wedding photographer!

Lily & Lime was great to work with. Very simple and straight forward, easy to pick your photographer based on style and availability for your date. Our photographer was Bozena and she was amazing. Photos turned out beautifully.

We LOVED working with Lily & Lime. Customer service was top notch throughout the process - very easy to contact and prompt to respond.
Of course we were nervous choosing a photographer based only off of a portfolio and not actually getting to speak to her until the week of our wedding. We chose Monica because we loved her candid shots and boy did she not disappoint!
I spoke to Monica a few days before our wedding to go over which shots were on our "must have" list, which weren't many. She knew our venue and the surrounding area so she gave some tips and we were set. The day of the wedding she showed up to the venue early to get some pictures of the venue itself, then pictures of me getting ready and with my parents and siblings, then my husband getting ready and with his parents and siblings. We did not do a first look and she did not push for it.
During the ceremony I didn't even know she was there. After the ceremony we headed out to take some pictures with me, the groom and the bridal party and she worked fast because we were losing light - we had a 6 pm ceremony in mid-October. Those pictures came out beautiful, and she really made our jewel tone colors pop.
We didn't even notice her during the reception, but she was all over the place, and easy to find when we did want a specific photo. Our guests actually commented on how much they liked her which was great to hear! I've never heard people rave about a photographer like they were raving about Monica. There are so many sweet photos from our reception, and silly photos, and photos full of pure joy. We could not have asked for a better collection of photos from our wedding day.
Afterwards, we got a sneak peek in about a week and a half - very exciting! We got our full portfolio maybe a week or two after that and are now just waiting a couple more weeks to be able to download them.
Lily & Lime won't be for everyone, namely those who want to meet and have a sit down with their photographer ahead of time, but they were perfect for us. The whole process was really easy and we would absolutely recommend them for future brides.

I couldn’t be more pleased with our decision to choose Lily & Lime as our wedding photography company. They met and exceeded all of our expectations, from the moment we booked their services until our photos were available after the wedding. The customer service team was friendly and made sure that things were organized and on track for the wedding. Then the day of I was so grateful for Ilze and her ability to not only capture all the special moments we were looking for, but to also stay calm and collected during the process. As a bride she made me feel comfortable with the flow of the day and not in a rush to get things done. We are so grateful to everyone at Lily & Lime and would highly recommend them to anyone in the future.

Lily & Lime seemed like it was too good to be true at first. I combed through all of the reviews to be sure they were a real company, and finally took the big leap by purchasing one of their base packages with a discount.
From start to finish they worked with me to ensure that I had exactly what I needed, that I knew about add-on options (without pushing them on me), that I was comfortable and happy with my photographer (who I was able to choose - a great feature offered by Lily & Lime which makes the process feel more personal), and that I loved my photos. They got the photos to me in record time as well; I thought I'd be waiting up to 8 weeks, but the preview came through within two weeks, the photos with watermarks a few days after that, and the downloads in less than a month!
Even though I used a discount, I never felt that they were treating me differently. I can't imagine how they could have made my experience any better - it was darn near perfection! There is no question in my mind that they are organized to a 'T' and that the service I was provided was tailored to me. I'm so thankful I took a shot on Lily & Lime - thank you for helping to make my wedding day a dream!
