    Love Love Love!

    Can not even describe how happy we were with Sue and Matt! We did a simple elopement ceremony including ourselves, our children, and a few friends. I was so lost when trying to plan, given we are from Ohio and had never been to the Outer Banks. I found Artz music & photography after extensive online searching. I only needed basic services since it was just an elopement ceremony and Artz was the most reasonable in price. I contacted Sue and she helped me every step of the way! She kept in regular contact with me via email and text message. She made some great recommendations for local vendors and things to do. She was very flexible as to where to do the ceremony and what to do if the weather did not work out. We did the ceremony at 7pm. I had two one year olds and two 6 year olds, all of which were on the verge of melting down at any given moment. Sue and Matt managed to still get great photos of the kids and everything came out perfect! We will definitely be going back to Sue and Matt for our future family photos!

    Absolutely wonderful!

    Sue was so great to work with; not only did she do a wonderful job on performing the wedding ceremony her husband took amazing pictures. The price was lower than any other competitors but the value was outstanding! They were flexible on timing and gave great recommendations. If you want the best look no further!

    Perfect, Affordable, Quality and FUN!

    Our experience with Artz Music and Photography could not have been more perfect! They were very affordable, and so great to work with. They were very experienced in working with small children. We had so much fun at our vow renewal, and they played a huge part in making our event a success. The images we recieved were absolutely stunning, and we will cherish them for years to come! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Artz Music and Photography! -Nate and Emily Hall

    Sue and Matt are simply AMAZING! We "shopped" around for someone for our vow renewal and came across Artz Music and Photography. They were recommended by a few others on Outer Banks sites, we are so glad they were. They are so down to earth and so easy to talk to. They were very helpful with setting up our special day.

    We planned for a beach wedding but unfortunately we got rained out. Sue and Matt was very professional at accommodating us and still made our day feel very special! Also, Sue's violin skill are top notch! She rocked it.

    I can’t even begin to explain my satisfaction. From the moment I made contact through Wedding Wire I had excellence! Living out of state, planning an OBX wedding is difficult because I couldn’t be out there to visit vendors, etc. Sue helped me with suggestions throughout 6 months of planning! My wedding was beautiful, even on a not so beautiful day! Matt was beyond knowledgeable in taking amazing pictures on a drizzly day! Sue’s officiant services made our service beautiful! I can’t say enough! I highly recommend them for a one stop team!!!! Amazing!!!! Not only did I make great memories with a wedding and vacation, but I made friends!

    Thank you for your very kind words Annette! It was great getting to know you as we planned the details for your wedding and I definitely agree-so happy to have found a lifelong friend too!

    Matt and Sue were so great and easy to work with! They were both so chill and guided us through everything that needed done. Matt got all the shots we wanted and the photos turned out amazing! Sue's music during the ceremony was beautiful and DJing during the reception was perfect. She provided a timeline beforehand which took a lot of stress off me trying to figure all that out. Dealing with one person for three different services (photography, ceremony music and DJ) was also extremely convenient. We loved them and will definitely be calling them for family photos in years to come!

    Sue and Matt we AMAZING! I was engaged for over a year and Sue helped me with everything and anything I needed from her. My husband and I live in Michigan, so a destination wedding we had. Things went smoothly and Sue reassured me things were going to be great! I could write a novel about the great service Matt and Sue gave us, but you will need to book them to find out for yourself! Wonderful couple and new friends!♡♡♡ The music, entertainment, and photos were on point. My mother in-law cried when she viewed the pictures. Needless to say, everytime i look at my album, its like my wedding all over again! And to top it off, it down poured on my wedding, Matt and Sue came back two days later to shoot a beach session with my husband and I!!! Happy Bride, Happy Life♡

    Sue did the ceremony music on violin for our wedding and she was fabulous. Such a perfect musical piece for our outdoor soundside wedding. She is a fantastic violinist and was very accommodating and easy to work with during the planning process. Highly recommend her violin services!

    Hi Erin! I'm glad you had a beautiful day for your OBX Wedding and that you were happy with the music! You were definitely really easy to work with too;) Thanks again so much and hope you two enjoy your "Happily Ever After"!

    Sue and Matt were an absolute pleasure to work with. I asked them to capture my engagement and the surprise party right after and I couldn't be happier with the results. They are genuinely nice people that are easy to get along with and are very accommodating.

    I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking to photograph an engagement or any other memorable event.

    Sue and her husband are SUCH a pleasure to work with; they'll make you feel cared for, special, and they are so organized that made us feel like we could rest easy about another stressful wedding task. Our photo's came out absolutely perfect and Sue played amazing at the wedding. Use them! They're a package deal and no one else at the OBX can provide packages like they do as far as music, wedding and Piece of Mind!

    Sue and Matt were excellent and fun to work with for our engagement photos. They were professional and very quick to respond to all of our questions. On the day of the photo shoot they helped direct us and create the perfect shots. We received our online album quickly and were very impressed with the quality of the photos. We highly recommend their services!

    Holy Moly!! We couldn't be happier with the beautiful, no STUNNING pictures that you took at our perfect little ceremony at The Whalehead Club in Corolla. Also, I can't thank you enough for your flexibility and willingness to make sure I got every shot I wanted! If you're getting married/eloping in the OBX, do yourself a favor and call Sue and Matt Artz. You won't be disappointed!

    Hi Tracey! We're so happy you love your photos!! Thanks so much for choosing us to photograph your wedding! You two are a great couple and we know you'll have lots of fun together with (and without;) the kids for many years to come!! Hope to see you again sometime! Sue & Matt

    Sue and Matt were so amazing to work with. OBX was a destination wedding for us, so from the very beginning they were as helpful as could be. They invited us to their home to discuss exactly what we wanted, and from there we were able to communicate via e-mail and text. When the big day finally arrived, they were prompt and professional - and were everything photographers should be! Sue was a wonderful officiant, and could go with the flow when we were nervous and didn't know what we were doing since we did not have a rehearsal. They were so helpful with our planning process - giving us recommendations for everything! They were budget friendly. Now we have someone we can call every time we visit the OBX and need pictures taken! We could not have asked for a better turn out of our wedding pictures!

    Matt & Sue were absolutely wonderful on our wedding day! They came prepared and took amazing shots of our special day. They included our entire family, got every picture we asked for, and came up with some great creative shots we hadn't thought of! Absolutely wonderful people, very easy to work with and was prompt in getting back to us every time. I highly recommend Artz Music and Photography for your OBX wedding!

    Outer Banks Weddings by Artz Music & Photography's reply:

    Thanks so much for having us Marley! You guys are an awesome couple and we LOVED it when you ran into the ocean at the end of your ceremony right after you kissed!! That was a first for us in 17 years! We know you'll live happily ever after and hope to see you and the kids again someday!! Sue & Matt

    My husband and I had a great experience with Artz Music and Photography! This was our second marriage and wanted a small, cozy yet beautiful wedding. Sue and Matt were so accommodating and worked with us on our photography needs and Sue played the violin for music whic was absolutely beautiful. We highly recommend Sue and Matt for any wedding of all sizes and venues!

    We were fortunate enough to find Sue relatively last minute for our 9/13/2016 wedding. She did a wonderful job accommodating our needs and even helped me to surprise my (now) husband by learning his favorite song for me to walk down the aisle to. She helped us bring to life the perfect soundtrack for our beach ceremony!

    Sue & Matt Artz made our day so special! It's like we had been old friends for years! They were so great with communication and answered every question we had along the way. We were planning our ceremony remotely from Chicago and everything came together beautifully. So glad we have these memories to look back on for years to come! Sue played violin as we walked out to the arch set up on the beach. It was just breathtaking & just as I imagined my wedding day to be! Thanks for everything Matt and Sue! Highly recommended!

    Sue and Matt were great to work with and they were a big help in directing our 10 yr vow renewal ceremony! The violin was a really nice touch to the ceremony and the pictures turned out great! I definitely recommend Artz Music & Photography!!
