Willow & Grey 

5.0

Guilford, CT
  • Florist

I instinctually fell in love with the creativity of floral design and it wasn’t long until Willow & Grey was born. WG creates unique, romantic, and whimsical floral designs for weddings and events in New England. My desire is to curate florals that reflect and celebrate the beauty and magic in life’s most cherished moments.

I can't say enough good things about Renee and the incredible work she did for our wedding. From the moment I first met her, it was clear she had an amazing gift. She took my scattered ideas and turned them into a breathtaking vision. The arrangements and installations she created were nothing short of magical—each piece was carefully crafted, with stunning attention to detail. I couldn't believe how she brought together all the elements I envisioned, while also adding her own artistic touches that made everything even more beautiful than I imagined. Renee truly brought our wedding to life with her flowers, and I’m so grateful for her talent and dedication. If you want someone who can turn your floral dreams into reality, Renee is the one to go to!

Stephanie Anestis Photography

Guilford, CT
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500

Hi, I'm Stephanie! I specialize in backyard weddings and small celebrations. I connect best with couples who might include their dog in the ceremony, make their day uniquely theirs, and don't sweat the small stuff. A jar of wildflowers is as interesting to me as a perfectly crafted orchid bouquet. I love documenting the small moments and details, and I see beauty everywhere on a wedding day. My face always hurts from smiling so much on my drive home! I know how to take charge for posed portraits (and always do some!) but I prefer to capture moments as they happen. I've been a photographer full-time for over fifteen years.

Awarded Best of Zola
Stephanie is an unbelievably talented photographer! Stephanie had an amazing ability to capture both the posed and candid moments of our wedding. Her work is absolutely stunning and she is a joy to work with. We cherish our wedding photos so much and could not be happier with the memories of our special day. Following our wedding, we even had Stephanie come back to capture newborn photos! We highly recommend Stephanie to anyone that is looking for a great wedding photographer.

The Downtown 6 Band was absolutely fantastic at our wedding. From the very first interaction, they were professional, knowledgeable, and flexible in accommodating our needs.

We're married! We have a few kids too! We're creative, quirky, lovers of inspiration. Our favorite photos are the ones that show your true selves, the ones where you are caught off guard.

I don’t even know where to begin. To put it simply, Julianna and Noah are the BEST! They literally do it all - from wedding pep talks, jokes to keep you laughing through the stress of the day, managing our rather large family for photos, keeping everything fun and enjoyable, to creating insanely beautiful and unique photos. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to work with or for more incredible photos to remember our special day. We hope to get the chance to work with them again in the future!

  • Serves Guilford, CT
  • Offer

The granddaughter of two gardeners, I have always felt a connection to the earth through the soil. When someone brings flowers into a room, something changes...an energy, an excitement! I love being able to bring that kind of beauty into peoples lives. I'm a small-town girl who enjoys anything that involves working with my hands from cooking to knitting. I'm a total animal lover (partial to dogs), a die-hard Grey's Anatomy fan, and I take my martinis extra dirty. When I'm not flowering in our studio in Milford, Connecticut, I'm mommin' to three amazing little boys (our dog Pippa and cat, Galaxy).

Awarded Best of Zola
Our wedding was held at Saltwater Farm Vineyard in June 2024. Kate was such a pleasure to work with and really brought our floral vision to life! I appreciated her free excel planning tools and how responsive she was from our first inquiry. After our first phone call, I realized that she is incredibly easy-going and down to earth, in addition to being well-organized. These are qualities you want in your wedding vendors. I have always loved florals and she helped me craft a vision that stayed within our budget. Our theme was coastal vineyard - I wanted the vibe to be loose & romantic without veering too rustic. She found this balance perfectly! On our wedding day, she arrived early and took care of everything quietly without a hitch! I didn't have to worry about a thing. I can't recommend Fountainhead Floral enough!

Destiny and Mac were the perfect photography team for our wedding. They have a background originally in wedding videography/cinematography, and after seeing their beautiful cinematic work I was immediately interested in working with them. They've extended their skills now to photography as well and are so talented at both. They were so enthusiastic to capture our special day and it really showed in the stunning photos they delivered in record time. Destiny made me and my bridesmaids feel so comfortable in front of the camera, which resulted in beautiful, natural-looking images that we'll treasure forever. The value they provided was unbeatable, and we are obsessed with our wedding pictures

  • Serves Guilford, CT

I am a Connecticut-based wedding and portrait photographer obsessed with candid moments, real emotion, and the connections between human beings. I strive to capture life as we actually live it: full of beauty and roughness, joy and struggle, extravagance and simplicity. When I photograph you, I’m not thinking about getting likes on social media. I’m thinking about what will make your heart grow three times its size. I’m thinking about what will make you ugly-cry, looking back. I’m thinking about you seeing how awesome and truly loved you are.

Awarded Best of Zola
This summer I had the pleasure of having Cate photograph my backyard micro wedding. She was great to work with and made sure to do meetings with us prior to the wedding to plan the photos we wanted and map out the timing of the day. This way it was an extremely smooth process for family photos prior and after the ceremony. Cate made the wedding photo experience so fun and the results were incredible! I couldn’t have asked for better photos. She got me a sneak peek within 24hrs and by 2-3 months our edited gallery was ready. Overall, our wedding moments wouldn’t be what they are without Cate’s amazing photos. I highly recommend her for your wedding.

Her suggestions turned out even better than I imagined. Tracy’s professionalism and passion for her craft was evident throughout the process.

I can’t even put into words how special my wedding was thanks to The Lake House (but I’m going to try lol). I found this location on Zola and when I contacted the owner, Paul, it was like speaking to an old friend even though we had never met before. He is so sincere and thoughtful and has the best tips and tricks for wedding planning. I never hired a wedding planner and I was a little overwhelmed in the beginning of my planning process but Paul was there every step of the way for me. He answered all my emails filled with dumb questions and he advised me in the best way. Carole, my wedding coordinator at the venue, was an absolute gem as well and made things so easy. My wedding was 11/16/24 (the last wedding of their season!) and I still have guests telling me how fantastic everything was. Especially the FOOD. I truly dream about the filet mignon and tiramisu we had about twice a week lol. I can’t say enough amazing things about this venue. I would have my next birthday party here just so I can see Paul and Carole again and eat more of the delicious food lol. The location is GORGEOUS and they truly made my wedding the best night of my entire life.

Lindsay was so amazing to work with! We hired her to do the flowers for our very small wedding, and the flowers were pretty much our only decor. Everything turned out so stunning. I only showed her a couple of inspiration/general ideas, and mostly told her that we just wanted bright seasonal (August) flowers, and to go ahead and do whatever she thought was best. We didn't have a set color palette since we didn't have a wedding party, so she really could choose whatever she wanted. This was the best decision I could have made because everything was even more beautiful than I could have imagined!

In 2013 I found myself fusing my love for art and flowers when I began working in floral design. I quickly fell in love with the ritual of creating with fresh florals. In the years since, I've had the opportunity to hone my skills and style and provide unique and gorgeous designs for some wonderful couples.

I don’t even know where to begin—words feel small compared to what Lauren created for our wedding day. From our very first consultation to the final breathtaking reveal, they went above and beyond to turn our vision into pure magic. As a bride, I had ideas, inspiration photos, and a Pinterest board full of hopes—but Lauren brought all of that to life in a way I never imagined possible. Every single bloom, every arrangement, every petal was thoughtfully placed and perfectly chosen. Walking into our ceremony and reception spaces was like stepping into a dream. What truly set them apart was not just her talent (which is unmatched), but their warmth, passion, and attention to detail. Lauren listened—really listened—to what we wanted, and then elevated it in the most elegant and personal way. The bouquet was absolutely stunning (it felt like it belonged in a fairytale), the ceremony florals took our breath away, and the reception flowers had our guests gasping and taking photos all night long. We received so many compliments from family and friends, but more importantly, we felt completely surrounded by beauty, love, and intention in every floral touch. It felt like us—romantic, joyful, and full of heart. To anyone looking for a florist who will not only deliver beautiful flowers but also pour love and soul into your big day—this is your person. We are endlessly grateful and couldn’t have asked for a more perfect floral experience. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

When I first started wedding photography, I didn’t realize how quickly I would fall in love! Through my clients I have had the pleasure of watching many love stories come to fruition, capturing their most special day. Wedding photography is not just a job, it’s a true passion that I do because I love it. The long wedding days, the planning - I cherish every moment of it!

Ephe was the best photographer ever. I was one of the last people in my friend group to get married and I’ve seen some photography disasters happen the day of. Ephe had none of that and all of my friends loved her and her work ethic. She is very punctual and organized. She understood the vibe that I was going for and she had my sneak peeks and all of my wedding pictures edited super quick! I wish I lived closer to Ephe so I could hire her for all of my photography needs.

I am animated, honest and fun! I am a mom, wife, teacher, avid runner and overall a very passionate person. I love my family, anything nautical and really enjoy a great glass of bubbly at the end of a long day! I'd love to meet you!

Keane Eye Photography was an absolute joy to work with on our wedding day. From the moment we first contacted Erica, her communication was prompt, energizing and thorough, putting us at ease throughout the entire planning process. On the day of the wedding, Erica and her second photographer were amazing with our family and kids, keeping everyone relaxed and having fun. They chose wonderful locations for our portraits that captured the beauty of our venue. Despite some rainy weather, Erica went above and beyond the contracted expectations, helping us pivot seamlessly and ensuring our special day was perfect. We are thrilled with the energetic and joyful photos that reflect the best day! Highly recommend!

Hi, I’m Rafael, the owner and creative behind JR Media Solutions. I believe wedding days should feel calm, joyful, and fully lived not rushed or staged. While I’m new to Zola, I’ve spent years photographing and filming weddings across Connecticut and beyond, earning over 100 five-star reviews by being dependable, organized, and genuinely invested in my couples. My approach is simple: show up prepared, stay present, and document your day honestly so you can relive it for years to come.

JR Media Solutions was the perfect choice for capturing our wedding day. Rafael was fun, outgoing, professional and talented. He is so easy to communicate with and he made the entire experience easy and enjoyable. We had sent inspiration photos prior and Rafael totally blew those out of the water. The photos and video created absolutely exceeded our expectations. Rafael had the photos back to us within just a few days - we were so impressed! He was easy to communicate with and kept in touch days before regarding planning and expectations. We are beyond grateful to have chosen JR Media Solutions and would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and personable photographer and videographer.
