Her quick thinking and preparedness in that unexpected situation really highlighted her dedication and care. Throughout the entire process, Lauryn’s communication and attention to detail were remarkable.

We hired Luis Andrade of Lionizing Entertainment for our wedding, and we are SO GLAD we did! We were looking for someone who would let us have a lot of control over our music, and we got so much more. He took our requests into consideration and did a fantastic job building upon them. Luis was funny, welcoming, worked with my grandparents on getting mics connected for the videos they were taking, played excellent music, worked off of our highly curated playlists for the cocktail hour and reception, and kept the dance floor full for hours. I have never had so much fun dancing at a wedding. I highly recommend him as a DJ, I wish there was another event coming up where we could hire him again. We’ve attended quite a few weddings by this point and he outshined every other DJ we’ve seen.

Robert was an absolute pleasure to work with on our wedding day. From our first interaction, he was very clear and professional. Taking our engagement photos, he was very kind and patient, even when I was very nervous. On our wedding day, he was steady and patient throughout the bumps of the day, helping me stay calm when I felt like we were running behind schedule. He even assisted all the groomsmen with their boutonnières, and helped the groom with his studs (which neither of us realized were even missing). The quality of his work was exceptional, and he captured so many special moments, including my 93 year old grandfather tearing up the dance floor. It is a picture I will treasure forever. We look forward to working with him again in the future. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture our special day.

We booked Spike Events for our October wedding and Spenser was absolutely amazing! We had several meetings beforehand and he was on top of every concern we had. We had a wedding at a private residence outside, so electrical needs were tricky. Spenser was thorough in what he needed supplied from us and we were able to get the right electrical needs for both his sound system and the two arcade tables we rented. He also was such a fun personality to have around and added so much to the party! We have so many great photos of everyone up and dancing due to his skill of keeping things fun! He did a great job following our timeline and was very helpful in adding to it as needed when we weren't sure how to schedule things such as first dance, cake cutting and parental dances. We had aunts and uncles that I've NEVER seen dance, out on the floor tearing it up!You would not regret hiring this company!

Welcome! Bienvenidos! My name is Geraldine but everyone calls me Geri! My passion for the industry started at a very young age. What started out as a coping mechanism turned out to be a career I truly love. I became a hair and makeup artist straight out of high school and have been in the industry for over 14 years. My ongoing education has allowed to learn so many new techniques and has given me the confidence in helping others feel their absolute best for any occasion. I love being able to connect with new friends and i’m very fortunate to have been able to be a part of so many special moments!

Geri was incredible for doing both hair and makeup for myself and my wife. From the time we set up and went to the trial with her we knew she was the right choice. We needed to change the amount of people getting done several times and she always changed it seamlessly. For our wedding we had a large bridal party and needed a lot of people done for hair and makeup (9 bridesmaids). Geri and her team were incredible of ensuring everyone got the styles that they wanted. I even changed the style I wanted for my makeup drastically from the trail I did and Geri made my vision come true. Her team was fantastic with all of our wedding party and even our year old flower girl who required some extra patience. I cannot say enough nice things about how Geri and her team made me and my wife feel on our wedding day. If you’re considering booking her you will not regret it!

Salem Cross Inn checked all our boxes for the perfect venue. It was affordable and included an outdoor ceremony location as well as an indoor ceremony location in case of rain. Luckily, the weather was gorgeous for our early Autumn wedding to allow us to be married outside. Our guest list was small, less than 50 people, which allowed us to rent The Brookfield Room on the second floor. This was perfect for us and provided us with a dance room and recpetion room. The bridal suite gave us sanctuary to have our makeup and hair done while our amazing photographer wandered around capturing our day. The backdrop of a beautiful farm landscape made for the perfect fantasy enchanted forest wedding theme. But the staff were the real stars in our day as they made everything incredibly easy. Donna and Nancy checked in on us to make sure we were all set. They helped with some quick changes and genuinely enjoyed our party. Hailee was a superstar! She took care of anything we needed, made sure that our stuff was safe and was wonderful with the kids at our party. I cannot say enough amazing things about this venue.

Pleasant Valley Country Club provided an amazing experience for our wedding day. Their communication from the initial inquiry through the big day was incredible - they were always responsive, helpful, and made us feel like their top priority. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, with a gorgeous outdoor space and elegant indoor ballroom. The food was delicious and our guests raved about it. But the standout was the incredible team of coordinators and staff who went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was perfect. They handled every detail seamlessly and were a joy to work with. We are so grateful to the entire Pleasant Valley team for making our special day truly unforgettable.

*The best way to get in contact with us is through our website!* Hi! I’m Sara, the founder of Fern & Fable, a Central MA–based studio that travels all over New England. I’ve been flowering weddings and events since 2020 and haven’t looked back. My style is organic, textured, and a bit whimsical, blending naturally with my love of rich color. Everything I do is tailored to you, which means we get to tell your story through the florals you love — nothing ordinary. Through Fern & Fable, I’m always excited at the prospect of bringing people’s floral visions to life with creativity and warmth.
