Awarded Best of Zola
My daughter recently got married in Newport, Rhode Island, on September 14th, 2024. She choose to have her reception in a tent on the lawn of the Eisenhower House. The venue was stunning and the woman at EH recommended Clockwork as we were looking for a local band with horns to play at the reception. We were not able to hear them in person, but all the video's posted online more than helped our decision making process and we quickly booked the band 20 months in advance, It was our second decision in the wedding process after the venue -with many, many more to come, but without a doubt - IT WAS THE BEST DECISION!!!! Booking was easy - we sent a check to reserve the date. the catalog of music they are capable of playing is extensive. But we had a tremendous comfort level with Clockwork New England as the contract states YOU GET THE EXACT MUSICIANS you see on all the website videos. There are no switches, or long lists of band members they slot in on any given day. Everyone we saw and loved are the people that showed up for our event. From start to finish - the band rocked the night away - the dance floor was never empty. They sang the bride and grooms song 'You are the Best Thing" and it was spectacular. And every song after that just got us up off our feet. The horns added so much - we keep hearing from friends asking us who they were, because they LOVED the music. The interactions with the crowd also made the night so memorable - and some of the best videos of the night. The band worked well together - and we just cannot say enough about how much they added to the party. Patrick joined a zoom call we had w our planner a week or so earlier than the event - and went over every detail - completely putting our minds at ease. 5 stars are NOT ENOUGH!! They truly made our event the best it could have possibly been! I want to do it again!

Tailgate Gourmet Catering remains one of Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New Hampshire’s leading caterers, applauded for both its gracious service and mouthwatering take on barbecue.

Awarded Best of Zola
We cannot recommend Tailgate Gourmet highly enough! They catered both our welcome party and our wedding reception over 4th of July weekend, and they absolutely knocked it out of the park. We actually attended their complimentary tasting before booking, and we knew right away they were the perfect fit. The food was incredible, the team was knowledgeable and welcoming, and we left feeling completely confident in our decision. For our reception, they created the most amazing summer menu — grilled lobster, pulled pork, beef kabobs, chicken kabobs, mashed potatoes, and Caesar salad — and every single item was outstanding. The lobster felt so festive for the holiday weekend, and the barbecue favorites were perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Our guests are still talking about how delicious everything was! The night before, they also handled our welcome party beautifully and set the tone for the entire weekend. We had wanted steamers (which isn’t on the regular menu) and they were able to make it happen! Everything was fresh, wonderfully presented, and executed flawlessly. Beyond the food, their team was professional, organized, and so easy to work with throughout the planning process. John was there every step of the way to answer questions and make sure the menu was exactly what we wanted. They made everything seamless and stress-free, which meant so much during our wedding and a busy holiday weekend. We’re so grateful they helped make our wedding weekend unforgettable. If you’re considering them, don’t hesitate — book them!

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. From start to finish, they were incredible.

We had our wedding at Saphire Estate in Sharon, MA, and it was everything we hoped for and more. We chose the venue because it gave us that dreamy garden-meets-New England charm that we really missed living in Florida, plus it’s right across from a beautiful lake that made for stunning scenery. From day one, the process with Saphire Event Group was seamless. Their team was responsive, organized, and so accommodating—especially with us planning everything from out of state. We couldn’t attend any in-person meetings aside from our initial visit, and they didn’t skip a beat. My parents even went to our food tasting in our place (bless them), and SEG made it all work without a hitch. We were lucky enough to be paired with Anne, our day-of coordinator and actual angel on Earth. From the very beginning, she felt like a friend—sweet, funny, genuine, and totally on my wavelength. I came into this with messy notes and scattered thoughts, and every time I talked to Anne, she brought clarity and calm. She completely understood the vision, printed and carried around my 3-page Google Doc (LOL), and made sure not a single detail was missed. Even when we made the big decision to change our ceremony location a few months before the wedding, she took it in stride and helped everything fall into place. She had everything perfectly lined up the day of and somehow made me feel like I didn’t need to worry about a single thing Anne, we seriously love you. And to the rest of the team: thank you! Everyone we interacted with on the day of had so much personality, were kind, professional, and genuinely seemed like they loved being there. It made a huge difference. We’re endlessly grateful to the entire Saphire team for giving us such a beautiful, stress-free experience.

We have curated a timeless repertoire through years of performance experience and proudly present it with our own unique, soulful style and energy. We can’t wait to talk with you guys!

Awarded Best of Zola
We cannot recommend East Coast Soul (Philly International group) enough! They played our ceremony, cocktail hour, and tented reception, and they kept the energy flowing seamlessly from one moment to the next. Communication leading up to the weekend was excellent, and the band went above and beyond by learning a few special songs for us—including a cultural line dance—which they played beautifully. Our guests were on the dance floor all night and are still raving about how incredible the band was. What impressed us most was how they struck the perfect balance: the music felt like a full, professional set, yet it never overshadowed the wedding itself. The focus stayed on the dance floor and the celebration, not just the stage. The sound mixing was also spot-on: lively and energetic without being overpowering, so people could still enjoy conversation when they stepped away from the dancing. East Coast Soul absolutely made our wedding unforgettable. If you’re considering them, especially the Philly International group, don’t hesitate, they’re phenomenal.

Words cannot begin to express our gratitude for this team and their dedication, professionalism, and craftsmanship. They truly delivered the wedding film of our dreams. From start to finish, they were responsive and really cared to understand our vision and what were looking for. No vendor has ever maintained such consistent communication and the woman we spoke to at the start answered all my questions and really made me feel confident in choosing them. Our prep call with videographer, Patrick, was so professional and thorough. He went moment by moment asking what we wanted captured at every stage of our wedding day. He was so meticulous and detail-oriented. He was legitimately writing every single thing done and asking specific questions to make sure he didn’t miss anything. And on the day, he and the other videographers were on time, friendly, knew when and how to capture the perfect shots, all while not making it awkward or being too intrusive. We had very special items and details we wanted captured. They didn’t miss a single thing. From a special rosary to my father-bride reveal to adorable moments of our flower girl, every single thing we hoped would be remembered, it was there on film. Oh not to mention, they are one of the few business I could find that didn’t *just* deliver a 3-5 minute trailer, but also a much longer video of your whole day. And yay for gorgeous drone footage! I grew up watching these types of wedding videos as a little girl, hoping one day I might have one of my own. EZ Production really made my dream come true.

It’s been one month since our wedding and every day I go back to how loved and supported I felt on the best day of my life. The Red Lion Inn played a massive role in that. My husband and I fell in love with the venue the second we stepped foot inside. From the historic inn, to the stunning barn, to the location right in the heart of quaint Cohasset, the Red Lion Inn is the wedding venue you dream about. It seems impossible that anything could out-do the beauty and charm of the venue, but the staff sets the bar even higher. From Krystel, to Andrew, to Nancy, to the MVP Toufiq, I have never felt more spoiled in my life. Every single person that interacted with me and my guests was kind, professional, and generous with their time. On top of the charm and the incredible team, the food is second to none. As a vegetarian, I have been to so many weddings where my meal is an afterthought. But not at Red Lion. Every single thing on the menu was absolutely delicious, including the vegetarian options. Beyond how delicious the food is, they accommodated every single guest and their dietary needs like the pros that they are. Red Lion is worth every penny. If you are lucky enough to be considering this venue, I encourage you to fully commit. We were taken care of like family from the first time we stepped foot in the venue, and it is because of them that our wedding day was the best day of our lives. We already cannot wait to go back and have dinner in the tavern just so we can feel the warmth of that incredible place once more.

Working with Lindsey and Jullian was an absolute JOY from beginning to end. We were planning a small, backyard queer wedding with less than 40 people. Our introduction meeting was so pleasant and professional but also very human and incredibly understanding. Our wedding was mostly DIY, but it was important to us that the photos would document our queer joy and over a decade of being together. It made us feel so much more at ease that they would provide guidance for the timing of the photos throughout the day while honoring our vision. On the day of, Jullian might as well have been one of our guests. He was so smooth, kind, funny, and incredibly professional! We both don't usually love being in front of the camera for more than a minute, but Jullian made it feel so comfortable and natural. He wanted to make sure we enjoyed our day instead of performing for the camera, which made the experience so special. When we got our photos, we were blown away and overjoyed at the detail and emotion we could feel from our day. Jullian captured our energy so naturally and beautifully and the photos are absolutely stunning. They completely surpassed our expectations.

DJ Tay worked with us in the months leading up to the wedding to coordinate instrumental piano covers for our ceremony which turned out beautifully. We also gave him a spreadsheet with songs we definitely wanted to play, others that were maybes and a few not to. He worked off this list but there were still a lot of songs I’d hoped to play that we didn’t hear, and also a handful I hadn’t asked for - but it is what it is. He also brought some great colorful lighting and uplights for the space which really added to the vibe. Overall Taylor did a good job DJ-ing our wedding reception! (Some fun hora photos to share)

Working with Audrey Walsh Events & Co. truly took away so much of the stress of wedding planning for us. From our first conversation, Audrey was quick to respond to every question and incredibly clear about next steps, which kept us on track throughout the entire process. When I hit a wall trying to figure out our decor direction, she created a PowerPoint of design options she'd specifically tailored to our vision, then she nailed every single detail on the day of. She has incredible personal taste, but can adapt to any style and execute it flawlessly. Beyond the planning, Audrey handled all the setup and breakdown, managed our timeline beautifully, and basically ran the show so my husband and I could actually enjoy our day. What really blew us away was when she helped us figure out where to store our decor after the wedding since our venue wouldn't allow overnight storage as we were quickly departing for our honeymoon. This solved a huge stress we didn't even know how to handle. Audrey's passion for her work and genuine care for making our day special made all the difference. We would recommend her a million times!

I am a New England girl through and through - born and raised in Framingham, MA, I now reside with my husband, daughter, cat and dog in Ayer, MA. During a New England Summer, you can catch me at Fenway on a Sunday afternoon or having the best lobster roll (change my mind) at Sesuit Harbor Cafe on Cape Cod. When I’m not taking or editing photos, I am most definitely in the kitchen whipping up a meal from one of Ina Garten’s cookbooks. Love that woman. Or playing with my daughter, Tessa and our pup, Lucy in our backyard. I’m so excited to meet you and to create lasting images that will hang in your home for years to come!

Jen is amazing! After she photographed my sister-in-law's wedding, I loved her style so much that I wanted to work with Jen again at my own wedding. She is extremely easy to work with and made us feel comfortable throughout the process. Her photos truly capture the day so beautifully. Even when firefighters had to crash the wedding due to an electrical issue, Jen rolled with the punches and took some of the best photos of the night of us sitting on a fire truck! I cannot recommend Jen enough!

Her song list was extensive and set the perfect ambiance. We had so many comments from guests saying how talented she is! Also, her price is more than reasonable. We highly recommend Lindsay and look forward to seeing her shows in the Boston area!

The Prose team is amazing and gets back to you fast and always down to talk through ideas. The quality of their work was incredible. Sierra took my vision and really added her skills to perfect the ideas - I can't thank her enough. When our cake vendor canceled on us last minute, Sierra jumped in without being asked and used some of her beautiful flowers to make the cake stunning. They really dive into flowers with you and will go as deep or high level as you want. The Prose team listens closely to make sure they create floral magic for your special day. I can't thank them enough for our wedding day!

You know you threw a good party when everyone can’t stop talking about the band! Vibrants energy is unmatched. My husband and I truly enjoyed our time with them from start to finish. They play once or twice a month in bars so you can go see them live! We made it a date night, and after the first time we saw them we knew it was an immediate yes! We booked them two years out and we couldn’t be happier. Justin was super helpful making sure our semi untraditional timeline worked, our more unique song choices got played- and that everything went according to plan. The band members work really well together - you can tell they enjoy playing and making music together. They not only got my guests out on the dance floor but themselves out there. Get a band who can do it all and not make you worry about a thing!
