PK and the Mighty Seven 
Rating: 5.0 (34 reviews)
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Boston College, MA

PK and the Mighty Seven is a 9-piece powerhouse band built on a foundation of 10+ years performing weddings as a consistent group. Every horn blast, vocal harmony, and rhythm is sharpened by a decade of musical chemistry. We began with a shared love for high-energy soul and funk and an initial Jamiroquai tribute gig, but today we bring that same authentic energy to everything from timeless classics to modern hits. With world-class vocals and a 3-piece horn section, we deliver a wall-to-wall rallying cry to the dance floor that won't be ignored.

Awarded Best of Zola
PK and the Mighty Seven was THEE best band for our wedding. We had initially seen them play at porchfest and have gone back to see them each year since. They always draw a massive crowd and they kill it every time. For our wedding we considered getting a DJ for a second but boy are we glad we didn’t. PK brought the heat and they worth every penny. Leading up to the wedding, Matt was great to work with. We had a few calls prior to the wedding to plan songs, and we were able to give some definite YESs and NOs based on their extensive song list. They have great Motown, funk, and pop classics on their list, but they also did fantastic renditions of our pop-punk and ska requests. Matt was super responsive and coordinated with the venue about their logistics. During the wedding itself they brought fantastic energy, and know how to read a room. As (amateur) musicians, they even let us come up to play a song with them which was the most special moment and topped everything off. All around, 11 out of 10. Great to work with, professional, and absolutely rock!

Jenn was absolutely amazing to work with. From our engagement shoot to our big day she was an absolute delight. She communicated with us every step of the way and we never felt like we were in the dark about anything. She captured moments that we didn't even think to capture but are so glad she did. She is a dream to work with and for all our posed photos she helped everyone feel at ease. My bridal party adored her and raves about how amazing and friendly she was. We plan to work with Jenn again in other aspects of our lives if we can to document milestones. She captured our day perfectly and I don't think anyone could have done it better.

It's been 15 years running this small business as a Boston wedding photographer, a New England wedding photographer, working all around the greater Boston area and traveling to destination weddings as well. It's been a crazy ride so far, and I can honestly say I still love what I do!

Ultimately, that's what it's all about, serving my clients and creating an amazing experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
I discovered Randall Garnick Photography back in Fall 2019 when my husband and I were newly engaged and checking out Elm Bank in Wellesley. While discussing services the venue offered, we happened upon a wedding album on a table in the meeting room. As we were flipping through the photos, I was drawn to how beautifully Randy was able to capture this couple in their element. There’s something truly magical about being able to capture candid moments. With what I previewed, I didn’t need to go online to read reviews for Randy to know that I wanted to book him for our wedding. With his warm and inviting personality, working with Randy was truly a delightful experience. We had our engagement photoshoot at deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum, literally a week before the world shut down during the 2020 pandemic. The museum was already shut down to the public, but the sculpture park remained open. Randy really took his time in finding spots in the park to take our shots. But what I loved most about his style and technique was that he didn’t tell us how to pose, as to not create heavily curated photos. Instead, he simply gave us suggestions or a general direction on what we could do, so we had the freedom to act as we pleased and knew Randy would find that perfect candid moment to capture. Our original wedding date was supposed to be in October 2020 but got postponed to October 2021, and Randy was responsive and accommodating to those changes. When our wedding day finally arrived, Randy and his assistant, Wayne, were on their A-game the entire day. They even catered to our silly request in taking photos of us eating our appetizers. Thanks to Randy and Wayne, our wedding day at Elm Bank lives forever through all the beautiful photos that were captured. I can not recommend him enough. Thank you again, Randy and Wayne!

Lizzie's Bakery 
Rating: 5.0 (14 reviews)
  • Cakes & desserts
  • Starts at $10 per serving
  • Serves Boston College, MA

I specialize in custom wedding cakes and party cakes! I'm 100% self-taught and have been decorating cakes since 2016! I have 2 kids and I love celebrating life's biggest events with cake is my passion!

Lizzie made our wedding cake for our August 2026 wedding, and it was truly one of the highlights of the weekend. We ordered the cake tasting box ahead of time, and we turned it into a full family event—everyone sampled, debated, and ranked their favorites. It made the whole process so personal and fun. We ultimately chose the Vanilla Latte cake with Espresso Buttercream, and it was absolutely delicious—rich, balanced, and not overly sweet. We served slices to each guest during the band break, and so many people told us it was the best wedding cake they’d ever had. We’re already looking forward to ordering the same flavor for anniversaries in the years to come.

Our daughter just celebrated her wedding this past weekend at the Kimpton Marlowe, and I can't imagine a more perfect experience! We visited quite a few venues that we loved, but once we found KM and Rachel, we knew we had found our place. I'm not sure where to begin! The planning process was never stressful thanks to Rachel's patience, professionalism and organizational skills. Our daughter lives out of state, and I can only imagine the insane amount of emails that flew back and forth between her and Rachel! She kept us all calm, and we were always confident that the day would be perfect because of her extraordinary efforts. The venue itself has everything a bridal party could want. It's in an accessible location for out of state visitors to explore Boston and Cambridge. The staff are all warm, friendly and eager to help with anything. The price is very reasonable; we had ruled out Boston/Cambridge because of our budget, but KM turned out to be right on target. There is convenient parking on site. We were offered a block of rooms in the hotel for an amazingly good price, so that our guests didn't have to worry about driving after a big party! The food was exceptional, from appetizers to dinner and even late night snacks of pizza, cookies and milk! The reception room was gorgeous and is very easy to work with because of the neutral colors. I think one of our favorite parts was that we had the entire second floor of the hotel to ourselves! The ceremony, cocktail hour, reception and even a room for the bride to retreat when she needed to change was all included. The younger guests danced until the very end, and the "older" parents and guests found a quiet spot to hang out in the lobby area outside of the reception hall, filled with comfortable sofas, chairs and tables. All who attended were happy with the many choices to party, relax and mingle. In my opinion, KM and Rachel are a still a hidden gem in the greater Boston area. I hope this review helps to get the word out that they are the place to go if you are looking for an affordable option with fabulous spaces, delicious food and most of all, an event planner who puts her heart and soul into everything she does. Thank you, KM and Rachel! 3

I come from a fashion photography background and now happily spend my time in the beautifully slow world of weddings. After living abroad for many years, I’ve returned to the States. Travel has always been part of my life, whether for fashion or weddings, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Awarded Best of Zola
From our engagement photos to our wedding day, Jaffer had us feeling at ease and comfortable. Neither of us likes having our picture taken, but it was very comfortable working with him. Both of our families raved about how fun and easy Jaffer was to work with after the big day, and we loved all of our pictures. Genuinely the most easy-going, fun photographer who has interesting shots planned and will guide you to something that is comfortable and representative of you as a couple or family. Jaffer has incredible listening skills and is everything you would want in a wedding photographer. I would definitely work with him again for other photography needs, and would recommend him to anyone in a heartbeat!

We were thrilled with the floral arrangements and grounded arbor that Ephemirus created for our wedding day! Cailla listened to our vision, and helped bring it to life. The bright, vibrant colors of the bouquets, boutonnieres were exactly what we wanted! The grounded arbor on the lawn was simply gorgeous - the perfect backdrop for our ceremony that we later converted to our sweetheart table and entry way florals.
