I am a retired high school teacher and avid hiker and cyclist. I love norther New England, and I have been providing instrumental and vocal wedding music throughout the region for over 20 years. I am a seven time winner of both "Best of Weddings" and "Brides' Choice "awards. Although I have done all types and sizes of weddings, I am probably the best fit for smaller, less formal weddings.

Their unconventional group has mastered the art of creating a great dance party that keeps guests on the dance floor all night and then humming the songs the next day!

Awarded Best of Zola
The Hook Club was by far the coolest musicians I was able to find in terms of having an NYC night out vibe, and not a typical "wedding" vibe. We had a bass and guitar duo for our cocktail hour. They were super nice and awesome musicians. It started raining an hour into our cocktails so we had to move inside, and the bassist switched to playing a piano so that we could continue the music inside. Everyone was so impressed by how multi-talented they were!! Loved them and wish we had them play music for more of our reception. Dan, the founder, as well as the rest of their staff were incredibly organized and attentive throughout the planning process. Highly recommend!!

My name is Gage Horne, the owner of Gage Horne Studios. I started my company in 2019 (officially) but have been doing video work starting at the age of 11. It started as gaming videos uploaded to YouTube, to shooting professional dance films in college, to starting my own Video Production Service.

I love what I do and finding intriguing/interesting ways to display those pieces is what keeps me creative and constantly making my films better.

Thomson & Thomson Photography is a must! Emily and Mark were such a pleasure to work with. From the very first conversation, we knew that we were in good hands for our June wedding. We started working with T&T a year out and they guided us each step of the way. We definitely recommend adding an engagement shoot as this was a great way for us to figure out what poses we did or didn't like, and get to know each other before the big day. Our wedding planner also loved working with them! Their professionalism and industry knowledge is a huge benefit. On the day-of they were clear and organized and ensured that we got all of our requested shots. Emily & Mark's attention to detail and style timeless. We are SO beyond happy with the shots we received. They capture the day so perfectly! We did a first look so that we could enjoy the cocktail hour with our guests and this meant we also got some great shots of our guests. Our guests have said that looking at the photos throws them right back into the moment which is exactly what we hoped for. I couldn't recommend Thomson & Thomson enough.

Hey, I’m Savannah! I’ve been photographing weddings since 2016, and somewhere along the way, it became the love of my life (well, one of them). I’m all about honest storytelling—documenting the real stuff, the in-between moments, the things you didn’t even realize were happening. My style is documentary with a creative edge, and my approach is simple: get to know you, show up with intention, and create photos that feel like you. If you’re into big feelings, warm tones, and someone who will hype you up while also fixing your flyaways, we’ll get along just fine.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we booked Sokol & Co Photo for our wedding, they were a dream to work with. Their communication was quick, thorough, and made the process incredibly easy. As a couple, we were nervous for our engagement session, but Sokol & Co. helped us settle in and relax, creating photos that captured the joy and love between us. Their incredible talent shone through, allowing them to beautifully preserve all the special moments we'll cherish forever. We couldn't have asked for a better photography team to document our love.

I'm obsessed with Charlene! She was a dream to work with. She brought such professionalism to our hectic event.

She wrangled the vendors prior to the day of and she helped me keep my cool during the stress of the morning. You can tell she's a pro at this! There were times I felt a little underwater in terms of managing an event I had no experience with, and her demeanor was so calming and she handled any last minute things.

Awarded Best of Zola
Finding the right videographer was incredibly important to us because we wanted more than just photos. We wanted to capture the voices, the laughter, the tears, the movement—every emotion that made our day unforgettable. At first, we struggled to find a connection with the work we saw, but after months of searching online, we came across Alex V Films, and his work left a lasting impression on us. It was exactly what we had been searching for. From the moment we met Alex, his warm personality and passion for his craft put us completely at ease. He took the time to understand our vision, showing incredible attention to detail and truly listening to what we wanted. His talent for capturing not only the big moments but also those small, candid interactions brought everything to life in a way we could only dream of. Alex was able to beautifully weave our vows into the movement and storytelling of our film, bringing each word to life. In my vows, I shared a memory about my papa. As he approached his final days, I asked him, “Papa, what can you tell me about love?” He gently touched his chest and said, “You feel it in your heart.” Alex captured this moment with such care; as I spoke the words, “my papa touched his chest,” the video transitioned to my wife, sliding her hand gently down my chest, mirroring my papa’s gesture. It was as if he had breathed life into our vows, capturing not just the words, but the emotion and legacy behind them. Alex made the experience of working with him enjoyable. Throughout the process, his communication was top-notch, and professionalism shone through every step of the way. He was attentive of our needs and made the process easy. Alex didn’t just record our day—he captured its essence. Every look, every laugh, every precious detail we wanted to hold onto is now a part of a beautiful memory we’ll cherish for a lifetime. These are moments that photos alone could never fully capture; they’re filled with emotions that will be felt and connected to for years to come. At the beginning of this process, Alex was a stranger. As we got to know him we felt as though he became a friend. We’re forever grateful to have found Alex, who created more than just a video—he created a keepsake of our love and joy that we will cherish for a lifetime.

Hi! I'm Sarah. Congratulations on taking the next step in your wedding planning! Choosing to work with me earns you more than just a photographer; you get a hype-girl, a dress fluffer, a confidant and a new best friend. Since we are now future besties, here's what you should know about me: My love for portraiture stems from the joy it brings me to make others feel beautiful. Few things make me feel as giddy as photographing weddings, engagements & proposals, and I can't wait to capture the next stage of your love story. My strengths lie in natural lighting, illuminating colors, and catching the candid moments that make you, you.

Awarded Best of Zola
There is not enough good things we can say about Sarah! From day 1, she had great communication before the proposal while deciding the perfect location and how we would meet up with her. She executed flawlessly and I never saw her until the ring was on my finger even though she followed us for a bit before the big moment. She made us feel so comfortable for the photoshoot after and was willing to go to a few different spots with us all while carrying all of our stuff so it wouldn’t be in our pockets for the pictures. We received the sneak peeks the next day and were blown away with how well they turned out, she nailed it!! She got the big “I do” moment which was most important and then captured so many other sweet moments right before and after that I will forever be so grateful we can relive because of her photos. The best thing about her is that you can feel the joy coming out of the screen when you look through her galleries. So many people have raved over how well our engagement photos turned out. Everyone should book Sarah, she is so great at what she does!!

We hired Ryan for our August 2024 wedding and he was fantastic to work with. We really wanted our wedding film to represent us as a couple, and so the music was incredibly important to us. Ryan gave us access to a database of options and when we made our choice, he even helped us use the song's original sample, too! The result was unique and special and reflective of our style.

Hey, I'm Mary! It's nice to meet you. Summing up who I am in an "about me" is always difficult. What you must know: (1) I'm a nerd. If you want to talk video games, LOTR or Doctor Who, we HAVE to sit down for a bourbon or a coffee. (2) Yes, I will be out on that dance floor with you snapping away while joining in on the fun. And (3), while I'm a photographer first, supporting you during the planning process feels crucial to me - from building a timeline to having your back any way I can. Woman/LGBTQIA+ Owned

Additionally, Mary was incredibly responsive and organized, answering every question. She even visited our wedding venue with us in advance to scout out the best spots for photos making the day of that much smoother. We are thrilled with the final results and couldn't recommend Mary more highly.

Black Connecticut wedding photographer, purveyor of the artistically-engineered photography experience. That's a crafty way of saying, I'm a computer nerd who's pretty good at photography and believes in great service! Digital image gallery, print rights, and beautiful, physical prints included with every package. My work focuses on telling my couples’ wedding day love stories through the pictures I capture. Artwork is the goal, whether it’s a highly-stylized posed photo or a moment where a loved one is emoting.

Awarded Best of Zola
We found Terrence very early on in our wedding process. His gallery had some of the most beautiful photos we had ever seen; some were dramatic, which is what my husband loves, others were soft, warm, and candid, which were my favorites. To find a photographer that could fit both of our styles was so exciting. Terrence’s package was over our budget, in part because we were marrying in NY, so would have to pay a travel fee. I was convinced I could find someone within budget. I searched and agonized for an additional two months. Finally, my now-husband convinced me that the photos would be the one thing from the day we would get to keep forever and we sprang for Terrence and let me tell you, both of us have agreed the extra cost was more then justified. In high heat and humidity and looming storms, Terrence did everything he could to keep us on-schedule and to get incredible photos at a venue he had never even been to. We just received our sneak peak gallery and all of us are in awe of the photos he captured. We look forward to working with Terrence in the future for other big life moments, and you should absolutely book him too - engagement shoot or wedding, Terrence will capture your moment perfectly!

Hey there! Since you are trusting me to capture these special moments in your life, I figured you should probably know a bit about me, right? I am a Huntsville, Alabama native, but moved to Nashville after graduating from the University of Alabama in 2013. ROLL TIDE! Although I consider Nashville home, I am anything but a homebody. I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

From the very beginning, Diana's communication style was open, professional, and timely - she was always checking in to make sure our day was going as we had imagined. The quality of her work is truly exceptional, with a clean, timeless, and emotional style that captured all the special moments beautifully. Diana knows the importance behind wedding photos - they aren't just a social media dump, but rather the memories we'll cherish for years to come. She reminded us to take in the little things, and that thoughtfulness really shines through in the final product.

The photos are absolutely stunning – from the candid moments to the posed shots, each one tells a story. Her attention to detail is exceptional, and we loved how she was able to capture the emotions and joy of our day. She was so organized and consistently checked in with us with several meetings and phone calls before our big day. She helped us so much by walking us through all the options and details to make sure our day was perfect and exactly what we wanted! Nina was so professional and friendly, making us feel at ease throughout the day. My husband and I are not very comfortable being the center of attention, but Nina made us feel so relaxed and helped us get amazing photos of our day. She was discreet, never interrupting or taking away from the flow of the ceremony or reception, yet somehow managed to be everywhere and capture everything.

Our friends and family are still raving about the photos, and we feel incredibly lucky to have had Nina as part of our wedding day.

Leah photographed our wedding at my family's property in Napa Valley, June 2024. Leah took lots of time to scope out the location and seemed to be absolutely *everywhere* during the wedding, at all the right moments. I didn't have to call her over once, because she was already there. She captured the emotions of the day, the little moments, the big moments, and made our day look like the fairytale wedding that it felt like. Once we got the photo gallery back (so quickly!) we relived the day all over again. We were tearing up and laughing at all the photos. I felt like I was looking at photos from a Brides magazine, but it was me! Another thing I'll mention is that Leah gives direction in a kind, calm and encouraging way. My husband is not too confident in photos and he felt SO comfortable posing with her there, and loves his photos too! I felt like she could guide me into more flattering poses when I felt uncertain about my angles. I love Leah and her work and would recommend her to anyone!

In particular, she helped us select room design and wedding decor - and it came out great!

Hi! I'm Brooklyn - the owner! I'm 23 years old & happily married to my best friend, Michael. Traveling is a huge part of our lives, WDW is our happy place, & our next adventure is never far away. When I'm not at a wedding, you can find me in the flower shop or doing some *light* retail therapy. I recently graduated from KSU with a B.S. in Hospitality & Event Management. I have had the opportunity to work with some amazing couples & vendors in several states. I even spent time in FL working closely with one of the world's leading entertainment companies bringing hundreds of fairytale weddings & events to life. Now, I'm making magic of my own!

Working with Brooklyn Rain Brides was an incredible experience! Finding Brooklyn felt like fate! She was everything we needed in a planner. My husband and I decided on having a small wedding in a short amount of time and it was better than I ever imagined due to Brooklyns' help! The planning stage was organized, productive and so much fun. I felt like I was chatting with a good friend during our meetings. The moment Brooklyn arrived to the venue on our wedding day, all of my stress vanished. She took my cell phone and really took charge! I was able to finally unwind and really be present with my now husband. She designed a gorgeous sweet heart table and flower arrangements for our reception. Brooklyn made sure that we, the Bride and Groom, were well looked after during the very busy day. From our very first interaction, Brooklyns' communication was organized, calming, and positive. We cannot recommend her team highly enough! *Brooklyn came up with the idea to take photos in the elevator and those are by far my favorite photos in our wedding album!

My name is Nicole Bartlett and I am the owner of Nicole Bartlett Beauty, LLC (I know truly a unique business name). My love for all things beauty started at an early age. I honed in my skills and started working for MAC while in college. While studying for my degree I continued to work doing makeup and hair for weddings and events. It is truly my honor being able to make individuals feel their best. There is nothing more valuable to me then when my clients look in the mirror after I complete my services and they beam with confidence and beauty. I am so grateful to be trusted with your special day!

Nicole is incredible. Not only is she super talented, but she is a professional! I was in Rhode Island for a friends wedding, and had booked Nicole for my own in September. I needed to schedule a trial with her, and last minute, she offered to come to my hotel room and do the trial right then and there! Within 24 hours, she confirmed my trial for my own wedding and was at my hotel room ready to rock. She was accommodating and listened to all my feedback. She even asked me if there was anything I would change. After giving her feedback, she went in and made the makeup and hair perfect. I felt Gorgeous, glamorous and just beautiful. She took notes of the specifics for my day and told me what products she recommended I buy - like the lip combo she used. The fact that she got me ready and did my trial for my friends wedding was just unbelievable. I cannot recommend Nicole enough. If you’re unsure about booking a makeup artist or hair stylist, I’m telling you- Nicole is it. She is fun, light hearted and personable and really put me at ease. I cant Wait till September when she does my makeup for MY wedding! She’s the best!

If you're the kind of couple that would prefer their photographer feel like one of the guests as opposed to a paparazzi, and if when the neighbors complain about the noise, you just invite them to the party, keep reading. I take a documentary-style approach to my weddings. Roaming with a camera, I capture the candid moments and small details that make your wedding unique to you, while making sure to set aside time for a few special portraits.

Steph is a wizard, ninja, and a unicorn all rolled into one. From the minute we reached out to her she immediately made us know we were in good hands. She was clear, communicative, and professional, but every time we talked it still felt like talking to an old friend. (Several of our guests assumed that she WAS an old friend of ours who happened to be a photographer — that’s how warm and chill she is.) Ahead of time she was great about getting details of exactly what we wanted, so that on the big day she just slipped in and out seamlessly without pulling us away from the fun. She was also careful to figure out exactly what we wanted the vibes of the final product to be (candid, colorful, joyful) and she delivered in spades. The finished products are beautiful and were delivered quickly (both the digital copies and the physical prints we ordered). We cannot recommend her highly enough!
