Hi there! I’m an on site pro makeup artist located in Connecticut, but travel all over the east coast & internationally if need be. I’m also someone who would love to make your wedding morning even more special in preparation for your big day! Hablo español!

Her communication was always timely, thorough, and extremely organized, which put me at ease throughout the planning process. The quality of her work was truly exceptional - the makeup artist, Marielly, was a true perfectionist and ensured that my entire bridal party of 8 women looked impeccable. She was so receptive to our individual style preferences and created flawless looks for each of us. Marielly went above and beyond, not just meeting, but exceeding my (admittedly high) expectations. My makeup stayed perfect for over 15 hours, through all the photos, hugs, tears, and dancing. I would trust Marielly and the entire Make Me Glamorous team with my beauty needs again in a heartbeat.

Hi! I'm Aren, when trusted to tell your story through my lens, I take a photojournalistic approach. I value capturing the moments as they are happening on your big day, rather than making your wedding day into a "photoshoot". Real, raw, + authentic love is what I am here to capture. Minimalistic photography really draws my eye, never over complicating what's really happening in front of us, and finding the beauty in the simple, in-between, moments.

This girl is amazing! She shot a wedding with me and she is incredibly personable and communicative, she’s just a great person to spend a day with! She’s super hands on and proactive, she was of great help at the wedding she second shot for me and her photos came out stunning! 100% recommend her to your wedding, she will document your day in the most beautiful way!

We are Maegan and Joe DeCrescenzo, and the little peanut in the picture above is our daughter Juniper. We photograph couples and families during some of their lives most exciting moments. After almost 11 years of photographing weddings together we still get misty eyed at almost every wedding. We know first hand how awkward it can feel to be in front of the camera (umm...what do I do with my hands?), and thankfully know just what to do to make you feel at ease. With a mix of candid and gentle guiding and prompts we make sure you don't just get great photos, you also have a lot of fun.

Our experience with Fox & Veil couldn’t have been better! Maegan traveled up to Maine to photograph our engagement pictures and they came out so beautiful and candid. Maegan and Joe also photographed our wedding in October 2024 at the Society Room in Hartford and the photos came out better than we could have imagined! Maegan is so kind and personable and takes the time to get to know you and the type of photos you want captured. We don’t love posing for pictures but Maegan made the process so easy and fun and made us feel so comfortable. It was truly a pleasure to work with them - we highly recommend Fox & Veil!!

I’m Julia, the photographer behind J. Graham Photo! What started as a creative outlet quickly became the career I can’t imagine living without. I specialize in capturing weddings, couples, and all the big + small moments that make your story yours. My approach is relaxed, fun, and real — no stiff poses, just natural direction to help you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. Based in Connecticut but always down to travel!

Getting married at a mansion felt like a dream—and having Julia as our photographer made it even better. From the second she arrived, she brought the best energy. She hyped me up during getting ready photos, knew exactly where to shoot around the property for the most gorgeous lighting, and captured everything from the architecture to the tiny emotional moments that would’ve gone unnoticed. The photos? GORGEOUS. Editorial but still personal. Romantic, timeless, and full of feeling. Every time I scroll through them, I’m instantly back in the moment. She made my husband and I feel so confident and relaxed, and truly felt like part of the crew by the end of the night. Julia is more than a photographer—she’s someone who cares. You can feel it in the way she shows up, how she connects with people, and in every single image she delivers. I'm so beyond grateful we had her for our day. Don't even hesitate—she's the one.

At Bookmarked Weddings, we plan weddings with heart, hustle, and a sprinkle of magic. Based in New England, we specialize in creating celebrations that feel like you—bold, joyful, personal, and beautifully organized. Whether you’re dreaming up a backyard bash or a ballroom soirée, we bring the calm to the chaos, the strategy to the sparkle, and the experience to make it all happen seamlessly. From full-service planning to wedding management, we’re here to guide you, cheer you on, and handle the details so you can stay present and party hard.

As a wedding photographer, I work with a wide range of planners, but Tanya from Bookmarked Weddings truly stands out. Our most recent wedding together was a 2025 New Year’s Eve wedding, and it was clear from the start that this wasn’t just another event—it was a fully immersive experience, thanks in large part to Tanya’s vision and execution. The day was filled with intricate details: a balldrop at midnight filled with bubbles, an elegant champagne tower, and a timeline packed with special moments and intentional design. Tanya handled it all with a calm, confident presence and exceptional attention to detail. She built a full-day timeline that was both comprehensive AND realistic—which meant everything ran smoothly, and I was able to capture the day naturally without unnecessary stress or delays. Tanya’s coordination behind the scenes allowed the couple to stay present and enjoy every moment while ensuring that vendors like myself had exactly what we needed to do our jobs well. Her thoughtful approach and clear communication made a huge difference throughout the day. The energy of a New Year’s Eve wedding is already electric, but Tanya elevated it with a sense of elegance, organization, and creativity that made the whole celebration feel effortless and magical. If you're looking for a planner who can manage complex, high-energy events with grace, precision, and style, Tanya from Bookmarked Weddings is it. Every time I know we are going to work together, I fist pump the air in celebration because it will be FLAWLESS! — Cait Fletcher Cait Fletcher Photography

I play violin at weddings. I have over 500 songs from all genres and the right equipment to provide a seamless and memorable experience. I enjoy playing for people and pride myself at doing a great job for couples and their guests.

As the father of the bride, I had the tremendous, good fortune of finding Sandro, to perform at my daughter's wedding! He was AMAZING! Without reservation, if you are lucky enough to have found Sandro... look NO further! Well over a year after the wedding, I know that Sandro made the day so special, that it will forever be a lasting memory for everyone that attended. Sandro simply exceeded every detail that my daughter and I asked for from the request for song titles performed during the wedding ceremony, to the cocktail hour! Hard to put into words... Sandro honored my request to accompany me and surprise my daughter, while I played the guitar and sang to her. It was so special that he graciously shared his impeccable talent as a violinist to allow me as a dad, to provide my daughter the best gift of love that I could ever imagine! I will never be able to thank him enough for this incredible memory... it turned out amazing! Please do yourself the favor of making Sandro a part of your special day... I promise, you and your guests will also be mesmerized by his awesome talent as simply the most accomplished violinists around! -Joey
