Valerie Kunze did an absolutely amazing job officiating our wedding. We could not have asked for a more eloquent, heartfelt, and endearing service that matched our personalities p...
erfectly! She gave us a survey link to send out to friends and family and also asked us to answer some questions about each other that really put a personal touch on our ceremony. Our ceremony was perfectly unique and anything but a cookie-cutter service. She was incredibly flexible and worked with us to help write and re-write our vows. We got so many compliments on her ceremony and she truly went above and beyond to make our day special.
Stephanie (Kunze) Johnson did our engagement photos and also blew us away. We had so much fun with her and got some really amazing photos! She is so creative and has a great eye. Many of the shots I thought wouldn't work ended up being my favorites! The experience as well as the photos were everything we could've hoped for. We would have loved to have her shoot our wedding as well but she was due with a baby the same week as our wedding. She was extremely flexible and forthcoming and offered several options and immediate solutions.
Overall, we LOVED Val and Steph! So Happy Hearted was amazingly personal, fun, and a standout hit at our wedding!
I recently was married on September 12th at Benham's Grove. I chose So Happy Hearted for my photography, officiating, and day-of-coordinating. It was a little pricey, but SO worth ...
it. I had three ladies, Stephanie was the main photographer, Lauren my second photographer, and Valerie my officiant/coordinator. Stephanie & Valerie are cousins and Lauren is their best friend so they work SO well together. They are friendly, professional and absolutely amazing at their work. I had a whole 8 hrs of photography which was great. Having two photographers was great too because my husband and I did not do a first look. Valerie was there the whole time catering to me, helping set up, getting everyone where they needed to be, etc. Steph and Lauren are photographers that will climb trees, get under tables, anything they need to do to get a great shot. They go above and beyond. Valerie did our ceremony and it was absolutely beautiful. She has you do questionnaires and meets with you to really get to know you and feel the love. I even got to pick out her outfit!! After the ceremony she was right back to coordinating and making sure everything ran smooth. I have seen my sneak peeks and I cannot wait to get all of the pictures. (Our engagement session was included to those turned out great too). I HIGHLY recommend this team. Even if you just need an officiant or just photographer (and not everything together) go with them!! It was worth every penny. My day wouldn't have been the same without them.
We loved having Stephanie Kunze and her second shooter at So Happy Hearted as our photographers! Our photos were so outstanding and I couldn't believe all the awesome candid shots...
they caught on camera! My husband loves the fact her style is different (not cookie cutter) and our wedding album has such originality to it!
I even had her do my boudoir photos as a surprise for my husband the night before our wedding. I had never done anything like that before and I was really nervous. I was worried our house didn't have the ideal lighting and architecture and that it would limit our options. She has such a creative eye and helped me feel comfortable in such an incredible way that I was beyond impressed. He was totally blown away! He didn't even know I did it at the house!
We also did First Look photos the day of the wedding. At first, I wasn't sure if I was okay with it because I had always imagined my husband seeing me for the first time walking down the aisle and I was kind of stuck on that tradition. She let me take my time (months really) on making the decision whether or not to do a First Look and I never felt pressured. She was right on the money when she said that it would help break the tension and it gave us a few minutes alone before all the guests arrived. My bridesmaids said I was so much more relaxed after the First Look and it made the ceremony feel less dizzying. I am sooooooooo glad that we did it!
They both bantered with our videographers and it totally helped my wedding party relax and participate in goofy poses and the results were outstanding!!
They was truly amazing at making our special day so much fun and we can't wait to have them do our family shots for our 1st anniversary!
