Hiring Mandy at Breathe Easy Events was, by far, the best decision we made for our wedding. She helped us think of things we never thought of during our planning process, was so organized, helped get all my vendors together the day of, and truly made our day the most special day ever.

DJ Jimmy Ice was my number one non-negotiable for our wedding, because he's THAT good. Before we even had a venue or date set I was 1000% sure that Jimmy was a priority, because music makes or breaks a wedding!! Not only does Jimmy have the ability to read the room and truly entertain the audience in front of him, he also is genuinely the nicest and most caring person ever. He will take the time to listen to your needs and make sure you have every type of setup you could possibly need. Also his hosting skills are TOP NOTCH! He did an amazing job announcing our wedding party and also gave such a great pump up speech to the group right before we all walked out. We are beyond lucky that we got to have Jimmy DJ our wedding, and we're just so lucky to know him as person all around!!

Zorvino Vineyards was an amazing venue for our wedding! From the very beginning, their communication was top-notch - they were always responsive to our emails and texts, and made time to meet with us whenever we needed. They truly went above and beyond to make sure all of our questions were answered and that we felt taken care of throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful and totally customizable to fit your vision. We loved how flexible they were in letting us personalize the space to make it our own. The only downside was that there wasn't a suite for the groom to get ready in, but the bride and bridesmaids had a lovely space to get ready. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better wedding venue. Zorvino Vineyards made our special day so easy and stress-free. We highly recommend booking them - you won't regret it!

Kate & Keith Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,100
  • Serves Exeter, NH

**We are only accepting elopements currently, but can’t figure out how to change our listing!** Whether you are professionals passionate about your careers, are #vanlife, found love later in life, or can’t be defined by traditional labels, it’s YOU that makes “Kate & Keith Photography.” From our first meeting, we’ll be establishing a vibe. If we can’t conceive of future inside jokes, then we’re happy to make recommendations to some friends who may align. But if we get carried away by conversations of favorite hikes, or where you grew up, then you can bet we’ll be showing up on wedding day with all the excitement shared by your inner circle.

Awarded Best of Zola
Being a couple affected by COVID postponements, our wedding experience - even up to the very moment we said, “I do” - was chaotic and emotional. The bright spot throughout it all? Kate & Keith. We met Kate & Keith even before we were engaged at a destination wedding and immediately knew that when the time came for us to tie the knot, we wanted them capturing the big day—not only because of how beautiful their photos were, but because of how effortlessly they got along with the bride, groom, family, and entire wedding group as well. A few years later when we signed our contract, we knew exactly what we were receiving—an engagement shoot, multiple hours of wedding day coverage, and hundreds of incredible photos… but what we didn’t realize at the time is the amount of love, support, compassion, positivity, professionalism, goofiness, laughs and incredible memories we would also experience with this extraordinary pair. From our first engagement shoot in December of 2018, to our “Coronaversary” #1 shoot on what was supposed to be our wedding day in March of 2020, to our second (and LAST) “Coronaversary” #2 shoot in May of 2021, to our actual wedding weekend from May 12-15, 2022 in Montego Bay, Jamaica, every single moment spent with Kate and Keith was enjoyable, uplifting and fun, and resulted in our absolute favorite photographs that we will proudly display and look back on fondly for our entire lives. Kate & Keith have an amazing ability to capture the energy, emotion, and feelings present in each moment they photograph. When we look through our albums we not only see still photos from the best days of our lives, but can remember exactly what we were laughing about or what song was playing in a particular moment, too. If that isn’t impressive enough, we can’t recommend pairing their expert photography with their incredible videography, too. We had no idea when K&K were switching from photo to video, and they captured our wedding in both mediums phenomenally. We could write a novel about why having K&K as your photographers is the best decision you will make, but here are just a few of the many of highlights: -Top-notch communication: we always felt well-informed before our big day and on-site formal photos were a breeze thanks to their expert communication with our group. -While we did have a lot of practice, K&K made us feel immediately comfortable in front of their cameras. Their cues were easy to follow, and we felt extremely relaxed and natural, which was absolutely and beautifully reflected in our final photos. -Their attention to detail is unmatched. Kate & Keith will suggest a minimal change, like shifting your stance or turning your torso ever so slightly, which makes a huge difference and results in flawless photos. -And finally… Did you know Kate also doubles as a hair stylist? She will pull out a bobby pin and make sure your updo stays up! And did you know Keith is a mind reader? We thought we were having a private moment, just the two of us, during a walk on the beach on the morning of our wedding, but somehow Keith was inconspicuously there too, at the exact same location, at the exact same time, and captured one of our favorite photos on our wedding day. There are a million other reasons why we love Kate & Keith… but unfortunately we are nearing our word limit. To sum it up; the best decision you make (aside from getting engaged and saying “I do”) is having Kate & Keith capture your special day

Gretchen was absolutely amazing! My bridesmaids all wanted different styles, from full updos to mostly down, and she did all of our hair flawlessly and with time to spare. My wedding was outdoors in the summer, and not a single hair was out of place by the end of the day. She was professional, kind, thoughtful, and it was very clear that she loves what she does. My hair has truly never looked better than it did in my wedding day. I absolutely recommend her!

Once we met with Kevin, we had high hopes for our big day, and I am not exaggerating when I say that Kevin blew our hopes out of the water. Kevin helped with audio for our ceremony, before doing music and speeches at our cocktail hour and reception. We requested a high energy dancefloor, with classics from all decades to get everyone on their feet, and wanted to have an insane dance party with our friends and family. He killed it. The energy on the dancefloor was impeccable, and Kevin delivered our vision PERFECTLY. He was so professional, but fun, and everything went very smoothly, no hiccups, no complaints.

I’m Jay and I'm the owner of La Bella and The Beat. I spend my weekends entertaining, celebrating and partying with some of the best people I’ve ever met. Music has always been a passion of mine--from my boombox days in 1st grade, playing for whoever would listen from my neighborhood driveway, to when my DJing side hustle of 13 years became my full-time career in 2018. I’m a versatile mobile DJ serving New Hampshire, Maine, and Massachusetts (or really anywhere looking for a party). For the past decade, I’ve been rocking events all across New England. No my adventures even take the parties abroad.

Hands down, the best DJ in so many ways. Professional, personable, flexible and most importantly super talented and incredibly FUN! As a vendor in the events industry, we have worked with Jay and we are always excited to see him performing, bringing a group together to celebrate and see them having a great time. Personally, we have worked with Jay for our company events as well as our own family celebrations over the last few years. He reads the room, knows exactly how to keep the crowd going and seeing him behind his booth with his giant smile makes him a huge part of the celebration. We always hear compliments and rave reviews from our guests after a party with Jay. Half of our family is hispanic and is always requesting the latin hits, and he always delivers! He makes sure to get an understanding of the event, the invited guests and is always in communication so that he is prepared for it all! In addition to his talent. He offers a great photo booth option, which we use at all our holiday parties and an incredible lighting package to help enhance the atmosphere. He helps create and compliment the entire vibe at any event. Five Stars All Day!!! Thank you Jay for helping us create such wonderful memories for our team, friends and family!

I fell in love with Hyla Brook Estate in renderings when it wasn't even yet a dirt pile. From first shovel I followed along on the progress...I was so excited but of course nervous as I would be one of the first weddings to happen once the venue was complete. WOW did the gamble pay off! I don't even know where to begin. The ready rooms: so fun! I love that they have their own bathrooms and an area for snacks and hosting. One has barstools and makeup mirrors, perfect for getting ready. Each detail from the couches to the pillows and finishings was perfect! The outdoors: We had our ceremony & cocktail hour outside and it was perfect. Corn hole & fire pits included, our guests loved the ability to be outdoors on/off throughout the night. Later on we had smores & cigars for all to enjoy! The venue: WOW! the hand strung beads on the chandeliers, the high ceilings, the picture window, the entry, this venue is stunning. The photo ops: magical! wild flowers, the venue itself, the historical rock wall near the front gate. so many photo areas without having to leave! The service: Kim and her team were phenomenal from beginning to end. It was chaotic as the site went up, but they always did their best to prioritize us, ensure we were confident on the progress and that we felt supported. It was the little touches that went a long way! As someone who does weddings for a living, I have seen almost every venue in Boston and surrounding. I was overjoyed to showcase a new venue to my friends and family and so proud to have chosen Hyla Brook for my most-special day. It was a decision and a gamble that I will always be so grateful for. Thank you Kim & Hyla Brook! :) Photos by Lovely Valentine Photography

My name is Dave Herring and I started Herring Photography in 2017. I live in Plaistow, NH with my wife Kalila, our son Davy, and our dogs Snickers and Chipwich. I have a dual background both as a pastor and as a financial analyst, but a few years ago, I bought a camera to document our trip to the UK and I never anticipated how much that would change my life. As a lifelong fan of photography, I became obsessed with learning about how cameras work and how to capture the important and beautiful moments of life.

Awarded Best of Zola
Dave was committed from the beginning. After reaching out to him about the wedding he called me and we spoke like old friends. He got to know us as a couple, individuals and what we wanted in our wedding photographer. Dave inspires true LOL moments, and proved himself as willing to take the extra mile. After the shoot he enthusiastically agreed to meet us down the street at a local pond to get the perfect sunset picture. We are so happy with that gallery! Fast forward to the wedding and Dave fit in like a member of the family but didn’t skip a beat with capturing all the important moments. I even had a couple guests ask if he was a family friend and by the end of the night he surely was. The only thing to complain about is that there are too many amazing pictures to choose from; we are ecstatic with the way they turned out! His style is super classic without leaving out all those fun lighthearted moments, which in the end are the most important. HIRE HIM, HIRE HIM, HIRE HIM. You will not regret it!

Laura and I met through a styled wedding collaboration (she was the hair/makeup artist and I was the baker) a few months before my September wedding. I remember thinking "wow, if I didn't already have makeup services booked, I would definitely book Laura." So when my original makeup artist cancelled on me due to COVID-19, I immediately messaged Laura of Dumont Styles. I am so grateful she was available and willing to travel about 1.5 hours away. I honestly feel she was meant to do my makeup for my special day, along with a few of my closest family member's makeup. I am fair skinned with freckles/red hair and requested a natural, but glam look--Laura NAILED IT! Laura is very professional (followed all COVID guidelines to keep us all safe) and also extremely prepared! Even though she was only booked for makeup services, Laura brought some hair stuff as well. This was super appreciated, especially when my mom's updo and my curls fell out!! Laura's skills and curling iron to the rescue! We still joke around that Laura single handedly saved the day! I highly recommend Dumont Styles for all your hair/makeup needs :)

Our wedding day was amazing and our hearts were so full! And that was all thanks to the incredible team at The View at Pepperrell Cove! The venue itself is absolutely stunning – The VIEW cannot be beat, especially at sunset. We had an intimate (30 guest) winter wedding and it was a perfect blend of elegance, charm and coziness. The weather did not really cooperate, but the venue was still gorgeous. Every detail, from the décor to the ambiance, was thoughtfully curated, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere for our guests. But what really made our experience unforgettable was the staff. The team at The View at Pepperrell Cove, went above and beyond to make sure everything was seamless. They were incredibly attentive, professional, and above all, kind and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. From the early planning stages to the last dance, they were there to guide us, offer suggestions, and take care of every detail. The food was incredible, our guests are still raving about the raw bar. Special shout-out to Donna and Dionna who were there every step of the way, making sure the day went off without a hitch. Their kindness, dedication and passion for what they do truly shone through, and we felt completely supported and cared for throughout the entire process. We had some special circumstances that they went above and beyond accommodating for us and they treated us like family. We can honestly say that our wedding at The View at Pepperrell Cove, was more beautiful, smooth, and stress-free than we ever could have imagined.

Hi, I’m Sally! I am the farmer/florist/owner of Silver Street Flower Farm, a one-acre cut flower farm focused on seasonal flowers and regenerative agriculture. I’m a NH native, a Colby College Alumna, and a twin mom. I feel grateful I get to do something every day that builds my relationship with the natural world. We provide boutique design services for intimate events. Our designs are seasonal and feature our own flowers or blooms from other local growers. All the flowers for your special day are sustainably grown, inspired by nature, and curated just for you.

We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Sally from Silver Street Flower Farm as our wedding florist! From the very beginning, we were captivated by her amazing style and the thoughtful selection of flowers she curated. The fact that she uses locally grown flowers made it even more special, perfectly aligning with the vision we had for our wedding day. Sally truly understood the style I was envisioning and brought it to life with such passion and enthusiasm. It felt less like working with a vendor and more like collaborating with a friend who was just as excited about the project as we were. Even though I know she had many weddings before ours in September, Sally made us feel like ours was the only one. Her energy and commitment to making our ideas a reality were unparalleled. This incredible energy carried through every step of the process—from our initial consultation to the check-ins and communication leading up to the big day. On the wedding day itself, Sally went above and beyond. She seamlessly handled additional requests for setup, worked closely with our venue to ensure everything ran smoothly, and delivered the most stunning and unique bouquets we could have imagined. I wholeheartedly recommend Sally to any future bride and groom. Her talent is unmatched, her warmth and kindness make her a joy to work with, and her attention to detail is a dream for any couple navigating the sometimes stressful world of wedding planning. Sally is an amazing creative, and we are so grateful for the role she played in making our wedding day unforgettable.

We are so grateful we booked White Birch Florals for our August 2024 wedding! Jessica is an absolute professional and truly the best of the best in the business. I was so impressed by the detailed proposal Jessica put together as I was inquiring with different florists for our wedding and I knew that she understood my vision and would be able to deliver beautiful arrangements. She was so wonderful to work with throughout the process and always answered my questions promptly. The day of our wedding, we were blown away by our florals - it was everything we dreamed of and more. She has such creativity and vision and was able to repurpose all of our florals from our ceremony in our reception as well. We can’t thank Jessica and White Birch Florals enough for helping make our wedding day so beautiful and magical - definitely don’t hesitate to book them

NuView is such a fantastic company! They really take the time to get to know you and what your vision is for your pictures. Paul was so great for our engagement shoot and immediately made us feel comfortable and eased our anxiety! For our wedding we had Ramzi and Peter and they were really great. Ramzi talked with us before the wedding to make sure that he knew what pictures we wanted. He suggested "first touch" pictures in lieu of a first look and they are some of our favorites from the night! Our pictures came out even better than we could have imagined. There are different angles and shots that we had not expected but they are fantastic! There are so many detail pictures that capture all of the things that we put so much work into. They were both so easy to work with and with our bridal party of 16 they had so much patience. I cannot say enough how pleased we are with them and with our pictures.

  • Planner
  • Offers 2 services
  • Starts at $800
  • Serves Exeter, NH

I help couples plan weddings that actually make sense—for their lives, their values, and their budgets. I’m not a full-service planner, and I don’t do day-of coordination. What I do offer is strategic, expert support like budget creation, vendor sourcing, timeline planning, thoughtful support and honest guidance. You stay in control of planning, but I'll help you focus on what really matters so you can enjoy your engagement and start your marriage feeling confident and grounded.

My wife and I worked with Danielle at a venue and she was so fantastic, we followed her from one venue to the other. We were so interested to work with her, we sought her out. The building, the amenities and the food…important? I guess… but not as important as the person who is going to help you keep the event on the rails, be in your corner the whole time and do everything she can to make your day the best it can be. Someone once told me, “a bunch of things are gonna go sideways on your day, you’ll know, but no one else will. Just enjoy the whole thing.” Danielle made sure to make our day as perfect as it really turned out to be. It was 5 years ago and people still comment on the day. You want more reasons to work with Affordably Ever After, feel free to reach out!

Jaime & Eddie were the photography duo of our dreams. Their balance of artistry and realism comes together to make the most beautiful images that capture the joy and emotion of our day, while still hitting on all the major “bridal” points. From the beginning, Jaime and Eddie vibed so well with us, really taking our vision for engagement photos to the next level (even driving us around Boston in their car to find hidden gems). They took the lead on ensuring our wedding timeline was well rounded and encompassed everything we wanted to do for the day (even taking the curve ball of a boat ride in the middle of cocktail hour in stride). Although they had never shot our venue before, they drove over on their own time ahead of the weekend to walk around the property - truly going the unnecessary extra mile. The results of their calm and professional, yet fun and lighthearted nature are incredibly beautiful. A mere day or two after our wedding, we had dozens of stunning sneak peeks to look through and share. A month later, we are still getting compliments on how amazing they were in person and how beautiful the finished product is. Could not recommend them more!

My name is Jeni and I am from southern Maine who enjoys being outside and Mexican food! I love photography because it connects me with new people and I get to capture love and laughs and everything in between! I want your special day to be everything you ever wanted and more. I want you to relive the moment when looking through your photos and feel the love and cherish the memories that were captured.

Awarded Best of Zola
This review is long overdue, but I had to give a shoutout to the best wedding photographer—Jeni! Not only is she an incredible photographer, but she’s also just a genuinely great person to be around. She captured our day so perfectly, and the photos are truly some of my absolute favorites. We just got around to hanging a few in our home, and I still can’t get over how amazing they came out. Jeni managed to capture everything—the love, the fun, and all the special moments of the day. She even found playful, creative ways to incorporate the brewery setting, which made the photos feel so personal and full of joy. Some of my favorite shots are the ones of my husband, our son, and me—they’re ones I’ll cherish forever. 10/10 recommend Jeni to any couple looking for someone talented, kind, and fun to have with you on your big day.

We are passionate about creating a unique experience for our couples, a sustainable business for our planet, and dessert for all!

Martha was amazing!!!! We were blown away with Martha's capability in design, flavor and originality. She was very exciting and collaborative in developing the flavors we envisioned for our wedding day. As an Asian American, there is a void in Asian flavors in cakes/designs in the area of Maine/New Hampshire that we are in. She not only is excited about Asian flavor profiles but has training and experiences with this. She not only created a custom cake flavor (Honey Ginger Cake) but custom dessert bar as well (Adzuki hamentaschen, Matcha cupcake with strawberry compote and adzuki vegan buttercream, and Black Sesame-Dark Chocolate Mochi). The desserts and cake were absolutely delicious and everyone raved about the variety and expertise of the desserts. We definitely heard people say that our cake was the best cake they have ever had at a wedding. Not only did she make original recipes for our wedding, but also complied with the number of dietary restrictions that were needed for our wedding day (dairy free). Her cake design and attention to detail was amazing. She made a ton of little easter eggs of our favorite characters and symbols that were important to us. We have been so pleased and would use her again for any specialty desserts we may need for an event or just for ourselves. We cannot wait for our anniversary cake. She is so worth it. There were times she was busy that she warned us about that would make it hard to communicate with her. We understood and trusted her plan and process and couldn't have been happier with everything. Martha brings a ton of great energy to the process of wedding dessert planning. We strongly recommend her and for any Asians looking for an Asian styled/flavored cake, I would recommend Hanami Cake and as the greatest compliment from an Asian her desserts were 'Not Too Sweet." Absolutely Amazing!
