City Winery is as an awesome venue for a wedding. We were able to do a walk through the day before and bring items for set up the day before, which made our day of much easier. The City Winery team was amazing at doing all the set up. They are pros! From reception tables to ceremony chairs. Their sound system is amazing for a DJ and contributed to the reason that our dance floor was packed for three hours straight. Having a 180 person wedding was great for this venue, as we were able to use the dining area, bar area for cocktail hour, and concert venue for the reception. From overseeing our ceremony music to allowing us to truly transforms the space, this venue is a great fit for someone with creative ideas! Additionally, the location was great for our guests and photos (as we got to take some on the roof and get an amazing view of Boston).

Rebecca Cee Photography

Rebecca is a wedding photographer based in Boston, blending documentary storytelling with an editorial eye. She captures weddings in a way that feels natural, honest, and quietly cinematic. Her work is grounded in clean composition, authentic connection, and a refined aesthetic that favors substance over trends. Rebecca offers digital and film photography and works throughout New England and select destinations.

Working with Rebecca as our wedding photographer was one of our favorite and most memorable things about our wedding experience. My husband and I aren’t very touchy-feely or PDA so I was worried that our photos would be awkward or cold, but let me tell you Rebecca is amazing at her job! Both the engagement and wedding photos are beyond what I could have hoped for, and she was so easy going and fun to work with we really felt like it was just an old friend taking our pictures. She gave great direction and we really appreciated her artistic eye for some fun/unique shots that we did. Our family also found her really friendly and many of our guests were so impressed with how she was shooting the dance floor at our wedding! Without a doubt I will recommend Rebecca to anyone looking for a wedding photographer and we will definitely be asking her to do any other photography session we might need in the future!

If you love cats, traveling the world, the TV show LOST, and chocolate, then we might be twin flames. But even if none of those things apply to you, don't worry, we'll probably still get along just fine. I'm a wedding photographer, originally from Boston, but also living just north of Miami now. When I'm not in those two locations, I'm living my Carmen Sandiego dream by exploring the rest of the globe one city at a time. If you ever need advice on how to pack just a carry-on for a two-week trip abroad in a cold-climate country, I can help with that. Death before checked baggage, amirite? Let's be friends.

I had been following Danielle’s work for a long time and I couldn’t wait for her to shoot my wedding!! To say she went above and beyond is an understatement. She made me feel comfortable and beautiful, was organized, fun, and creative. We never felt rushed. She even helped pin boutonnieres and flag down family members for the after ceremony photo shoot! She captured all the decor, every important moment of the day as well as plenty of awesome candids. It was wonderful to see the day through her lens and you can tell how passionate she is with her work. We will surely cherish these photos for a lifetime. I would recommend her to anyone!!

We came across the Huntington Theatre very early during our venue search, but since the first visit and meeting with Esther we fell in love with the Maso Studio! We planned an unconventional wedding which involved merging Indian culture with a non-denominational western ceremony, and Esther, Abbie, Kat and the whole team made our vision come to life. They met with us as many times as we wanted, accommodated all of our odd requests, and helped our friends decorate the space on the day of. The bar team executed our Indian-style custom cocktails perfectly, and provided invaluable suggestions that made the cocktails memorable for all our guests. Since the Maso Studio had its own lighting and sound systems, we were able to make our wedding look and sound just the way we wanted. The team also helped us come up with lighting presets during the ceremony and reception. We cannot recommend the Huntington Theatre enough for your own dream wedding.

We're the rock and roll band Business Time. We help you throw the most ridiculously fun wedding, with the exact music you want to hear, that your guests won't stop talking about for years to come. Boston's greatest wedding and party band!

Awarded Best of Zola
Business Time didn’t ask us to write a review, but we’re so excited to write one and want everyone considering booking them to know how amazing they are (understatement). They’re not a typical wedding band, and we knew their style and songs were the vibe we wanted. Easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We had planned a 200 person wedding but had to pivot to 25 because of COVID. Mark and the guys were the kindest humans alive, accommodating us and being flexible with every phone call and change in plans. They never badgered us about making decisions, were super responsive, and went with the flow. We looked forward to every call with Mark. They made it so easy and it was one less thing for us to stress over during an already emotional year of planning. From the cocktail music to dinner music to the main performance, they were a huge reason the wedding was so fun and memorable. In fact, my husband and I (and our guests!) begged them to stay an hour past their scheduled stopping time - we were willing to pay whatever they wanted they were so good!! We just didn’t want the night to end. (For those wondering, they so kindly did and it was the best money we ever spent!) I literally lost half my voice that night and left the dance floor *maybe* once. Even days later all our guests are still raving about how amazing Business Time was. We legit would get married again just to have them perform again. SO FUN!!! Honestly more fun than a lot of concerts we’ve been to, and not just saying that because it was our wedding. Book them now before they get famous and on the cover of Rolling Stone! Thank you Business Time - your kindness and willingness to go the extra mile could make me cry (and actually has). You’ve now got the biggest fans from Chicago!! Anne & Johnny

The Banks was the perfect choice for our small wedding. From the very first conversation, the team was kind, responsive, and detail-oriented. They genuinely cared about making our day special - And the food was incredible! (This is the main reason we chose a restaurant as our venue!) We chose the Fireplace Room and it was cozy and perfect for our group. We used the same space for both the ceremony and dinner, and it was great because it made everything so easy for us and our guests. Food wise, they had a great variety and even accommodated several dietary preferences without missing a beat.

I will ask all the right questions and provide scheduling to make your trial and wedding day hair and makeup experience seamless. Sit back, relax and let me (and a teammate if needed!) travel to you on your special day! Hope to hear from you soon!

I cannot express enough how thrilled I am with the services provided by Hair and Makeup by Natalie on my wedding day!! From the moment I inquired, Natalie was a shining example of great communication. Her responses were prompt, informative, and she was always there to address any questions or concerns. Scheduling a trial was a breeze, and I appreciated how accommodating Natalie was with my busy schedule. During the trial, I had a moment of realization that I wanted a different look for my hair. Natalie's response was nothing short of amazing. She not only listened to my new vision but also made it come to life flawlessly. Her adaptability and willingness to make the necessary changes truly set her apart. On the big day, Natalie and her assistant, Ariana, arrived right on time, which immediately eased my pre-wedding jitters. They took the time to listen to each bridesmaid and family member, tailoring their makeup and hairstyling to individual preferences. This personalized approach ensured that everyone felt comfortable and confident in their look. Natalie's supportive and accommodating nature was a game-changer for me, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Natalie and Ariana worked efficiently, and to my surprise, we actually finished ahead of schedule! This allowed for some extra moments of relaxation and pampering before the ceremony. Their time management skills were impeccable. The results were nothing short of spectacular. Our hair and makeup not only looked incredible but also lasted throughout the entire event, even with all the dancing and celebrating. I received countless compliments throughout the day, and I owe it all to Natalie and Ariana's artistry. Natalie and her team truly made me feel like the most beautiful bride, and for that, I will be forever thankful.

At Emerald Events by Devyn, we believe that every love story deserves to be celebrated in a unique and unforgettable way. As a full-service wedding planning and design company based in Boston, we take pride in crafting bespoke experiences that reflect the individuality of each couple we work with. From the initial consultation to the final moments of your special day, our dedicated team is committed to ensuring that every detail aligns with your vision, creating a seamless and memorable celebration.

As soon as my fiancé and I met Devyn over a zoom call, I knew we had to hire her to plan our wedding. She is not only extremely talented in her field, she is also a wonderful person and very personable and easy to work with. My main concern going into wedding planning was being far from our destination (we live in CA and planned a wedding in MA), and for the design aspect as I tend to lack in that area. Devyn solved any concern - she attended vendor meetings in MA that we weren't able to, truly going above and beyond. She asked all the right questions and totally understood the aesthetic we were going for design wise and ran with it, coming back to us with gorgeous design decks (multiple!) that were on the nose. She was flexible with us being in a different time zone. She not only designed, but also coordinated flawlessly. She executed with vendors and built a relationship with our venue coordinator that I'm certain impacted how smoothly everything went. Devyn planned an entire wedding weekend, coordinating multiple events from Friday morning through Sunday morning including a yoga class, lunch, rehearsal dinner, welcome reception, bonfires, a brunch, ceremony, reception, an after party... We definitely kept her busy and she did not seem to tire. She led us through the weekend (along with her amazing team - Evie, Nicolette, and Alexa!) with so much assurance that everything would be taken care of. When rain was on the forecast, she moved our cocktail hour to a different location at our venue with only a couple of hours to spare. We didn't stress one bit. My now husband and I were able to relax and enjoy every moment of the event without worrying about the details and logistics. I would be remiss not to mention that Devyn planned our wedding while being a new mom - which I am sure was no easy feat. We are so thankful to have found her, and would recommend her to absolutely anyone looking for a full service wedding planner.

I love love - and love documenting it even more. My approach is simple: I want you to feel like you’re hanging out with an old friend (who just happens to be documenting one of the most important days of your life). No stiff poses or forced smiles — just you, being fully present, wrapped up in all the love around you. I believe that the best photos come when you’re relaxed, having fun, and not even thinking about the camera. That’s when the magic happens — and that’s what I’m here to capture. If you're looking for photos that feel like you, I’m your person.

Rachel is attentive, funny, and made us feel completely comfortable throughout the entire wedding. Her creative approach and natural, colorful style resulted in photos that captured all the special moments of our wedding day. Rachel even managed to get my husband to smile in a natural, non-awkward way - no small feat! We're thrilled with the final product and would highly recommend Rachel Joy Photography to any couple looking for a talented, personable photographer to help make their wedding day unforgettable.

Every kind of love is beautiful & I know that every love story has a different path. My heart is full when I am able to capture true emotion, happiness, personalities, milestones, and every day moments. I support all kinds of love and truly believe that love is full of all colors of the rainbow, love is full of people of all genders and I am a proud ally of the LGBTQ, love is full of every race and nationality. Love is a gift of the heart and soul.

Casey is genuinely the best photographer I've worked with. Every step of our appointment went smoothly, from digital introduction to final delivery of our photo package. She goes above and beyond expectations, making the entire experience a fun one - especially where it matters!! The friendship she built with us shows on our faces - you can SEE the genuine smiles we had with her as our photographer! She's incredibly professional, super talented, and very detail-oriented. I just feel like I can't say enough good things!!

I became a wedding photographer to give you a sense relief that comes when you know you have a photographer that will be your ultimate hype person, be that person where you can always just be yourself in front of, and a person that will always look out for you on your big day. I want you to feel as if I am an extended friend throughout this process and trust me to capture who you truly are.

Warren was our wedding photographer and he was absolutely incredible! He made us feel so comfortable in our engagement and wedding photos. I had felt nervous going into our engagement photos but he made it so fun and made us feel confident! He has a really laid back style that matched perfectly with ours - he is flexible and can roll with changes, even managing to hold our dog while he was taking photos of us after we were done doing photos with her included! Not to mention, the pictures came out absolutely beautiful (we can't stop looking at them!). I cannot recommend him enough.

She captured every moment while also taking the few specific shots I wanted. She took pictures that showcased not only our beautiful day, but the personalities and the beauty of our family and friends.

We had an amazing wedding at AFH - all of our guests raved that it was an amazing venue. The art makes it unique and more interesting. It has two floors and you can do a more dramatic entrance using the staircase. They contact at AFH, Rich, was very kind and easy to work with. They do have an exclusive caterer that you have to use and they are pricey. But the food is amazing and worth it.
