Kimberly Nguyen Photography, LLC 

5.0

Hartford, CT
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,398

Welcome! I am a daughter of Vietnamese immigrants who chose to move to Connecticut, where I have lived for most of my life. I love the change of seasons in this part of the country and all the rich backdrops it brings for imagery (and mental health walks and runs). My cultural heritage is the foundation for my photographic passion. My camera allows me to work where I know I work best, behind-the-scenes, front row at some of the most profound moments in people's lives. In a pinch though, I'll be there carrying the train, making sure you don't get your shoes dirty and helping to support you where I can throughout your wedding day!

We worked with Kim for both our engagement party and wedding ceremony in 2023. She was very responsive and flexible, and really listened to what we wanted (which was more about what we DIDN'T want). The pictures are lovely, and we really liked how she captured so many candid moments. Would def recommend her services.

We booked Collins Entertainment for our October wedding at the Interlaken Inn in Lakeville, CT. We had an unbelievably amazing experience with this company from the top to the bottom. Our DJ, Jared, was exceptional with music selection, a master emcee, was accommodating and seemed to be everywhere at once. My guests left saying he was the best DJ they've ever seen at a wedding for how many hits he put out. He was able to read the crowd really well, and knew how to get everyone on the dance floor. Jared had battery-powered setups for both the ceremony and reception, so we didn't have to worry about outlets in a remote area outdoors, which was very nice. Our planning sessions with Jim, Mitch, and Jared were comprehensive and they gave us all the tools we needed to succeed. The package price was very reasonable too, and was a leading factor for why we chose them as well. We used their mirror photo booth as well, which was very fun. The mirror booth even came with a long red carpet! The operator, Randall, was very accommodating and helpful with guests, making it fun and easy for everyone. We highly recommend Collins Entertainment!

Hartford, CT
  • Ceremony only

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.

MusicBySandro was an excellent choice for our wedding band and DJ. From the start, he was highly professional, responsive, and accommodated our schedule. On the day of our wedding, he was fully prepared and it was obvious he knew how to work with weddings, playing all of our requested songs and even adding some piano pieces to play along with. We didn't need to provide him with much instruction, as he clearly had extensive experience performing at weddings. His wide repertoire was impressive. We highly recommend MusicBySandro for any couple looking for a talented and experienced live wedding musician that will help make their special day unforgettable.

I usually don’t like being in photos, but somehow they made me forget the camera was even there. Everything felt easy and natural, and the photos turned out beautiful without trying too hard. They captured the real stuff—laughs, nerves, little glances. It felt more like being seen than being photographed.

Carla Ten Eyck Photography 

5.0

Hartford, CT
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,700

Almost 20 years of experience and I still get as excited as I did when I first started photographing events! I got my BFA in photojournalism at Rochester Institute of Technology and my common sense from a well-lived, full life. From intimate weekday elopements to full scale destination events that require a team of photographers, I have done it all. I focus on telling the most full and vibrant story of your event, so you can look back and feel like you didn't missed a thing.

A camera can pick up the visual attraction of a moment, but most times it feels impossible to relive the actual energy of that place in time. Carla - is the absolute key to capturing every ounce of that magical energy. My wedding day was truly the most remarkable day of my life, and every single picture Carla took brings me back to that exact moment in a way I never thought a photo could do. Not only is she a visual genius - but she set the tone for the entire day. Some people in the bridal party who HATE having their picture taken, had so much fun they didn’t even realize they were having a “photo shoot”. Her attention to timing is flawless. Her timeline had every single picture we wanted to get, every friend and family member, every quirky thing I incorporated - and in the most elegant way I could have NEVER imagined. ALSO major plus - her son Jackson is a brilliant videographer. He did our video and their chemistry and vibrant energy was EVERYTHING!!!!! Do yourself a favor - just book her. She’s really busy because she’s so amazing so don’t wait. LOLOLOLOL

I had my wedding here last week. Holy crap, they knocked it out of the park. Several people said it was the best wedding they’d ever been to. They said the food was so good they’d come back if it were a restaurant. The cake was also outstanding and so delicious (shout out to Paula!). More than all of that, Jonna the bridal attendant took care of me and my husband so well that we hardly had to worry about anything. We got to eat everything because she set it aside for us and we set aside time for a calm moment. She made sure we got to take the cake home. She was an excellent communicator, made sure everyone was where they needed to be and she was somehow always there when we needed her. It was like she was everywhere all at once! I thought I was going to need to corral people to help me take stuff home that night. Nope! She knew who my immediate family was and had them grab a few things. She made it all low stress. Linda was amazing in the planning process. She was communicative and diligent on following up on our loose ends. I always felt like she was there if I needed her. Chris was our salesperson and did a wonderful job. He went above and beyond and met us right before (or after) closing because it was the only time that worked for us. He made us so excited to book the place and the team truly delivered!! I wish I could get married AGAIN and I’d do it here! Ps you HAVE to book Bruno of Beauty and Life Captured! If you book here. He is masterful with the lighting of this place. Truly so talented!

Your wedding day is one of the biggest days of your life! You want to feel beautiful, confident and naturally flawless. The Stately Rose Beauty Studio has a team of talented and trusted hair and makeup professionals, ready to create your ideal wedding look.

Awarded Best of Zola
From start to finish, working with The Stately Rose team was a pleasure. From my initial conversation with Johanna about my vision for my look, I could tell this was the right salon for me and my girls. Her careful attention to detail and genuine care for me as a potential client impressed me. Throughout the process, Yoli, the bridal coordinator, responded to all of my questions promptly and cheerfully. Marielly and Janelle made me feel so comfortable and confident at my trial and were open and responsive to feedback and follow-up questions I had about my own look as well as questions my girls wanted to ask. On my wedding day, my bridesmaids, mom, and I got ready at the pink salon. The space is bright, airy, and full of cute spots for photos. Marielly and Janelle gave each of my girls the same VIP treatment they gave me at my trial and they kept us on time to ensure the rest of the day went smoothly. My group ranged widely in terms of needs (we had hair that was curly, straight, thick, and thin and girls who ranged from wearing little to no makeup regularly to girls who regularly go full glam and wanted bright and colorful looks), and each girl ended up with a look that was perfect for them! Our hair and makeup lasted all night long! While the final product was impressive, what stands out the most to me about working with The Stately Rose was how they made me feel. Every question or concern I had was treated as important (no matter how small) in the lead-up to the day. In the salon, Marielly and Janelle created a positive, fun, relaxed, and empowering environment. They were the ultimate hype-women all morning and they really set the tone for the day moving forward. It was especially meaningful to me how much care our team took in accommodating health and safety concerns among my party; requests we made to keep those with compromised immune systems or allergies comfortable and safe were made without hesitation. We all left the salon to start the rest of the busy and stressful day feeling like our best selves. I could not have asked for a better glam team and I’d recommend The Stately Rose to any bride-to-be without hesitation!

We booked a cello and violin duet for our wedding. We are so thankful for the flexibility of the Ariana Strings team! Our wedding did not go as planned, and we had to shift locations last minute.

We used Ben to video our December 30 wedding. The choice to use a Videographer was last minute on our part, but Ben made himself available, was very easy to work with, and every meeting with him was stress-free. Ben made communicating prior to the wedding as easy as possible, always making himself available and making sure he met our needs. As far as the wedding day, he made sure my husband and I got what we wanted, and made sure all of our special moments were captured for us to look back on. He was flexible during the wedding day as far as when he was working, and when he was taking a break to make sure that we had all the footage we would need. We received the finish product just about three weeks after the wedding, and we couldn’t be happier! Overall, I would highly recommend Ben if you are in need of Videographer.

Our experience with The Riverview was incredible from start to finish. The process of booking included a detailed tour of the venue and a thorough review of the terms and conditions at a meeting to sign the contract, leaving us confident that we fully understood what we were agreeing to. Our tasting event was a wonderful chance to see the team in action and make some decisions about our own menu based on what we did and didn’t like. We worked with Kayla and Meghan as our coordinators, both of whom were a pleasure to work with and extremely responsive throughout the planning process. We were able to take advantage of their expertise based on experiences with past weddings but still had the flexibility to customize the details of the day so that it didn’t feel like a “cookie-cutter” event. And the physical space is truly beautiful! Our planning experience was wonderful, but the experience with the venue and team on the day of our wedding was exceptional. Meghan’s positive but firm leadership kept things moving smoothly and between her and our attendants, Cam and Felicia, every detail was attended to! They were prepared for everything, even wardrobe malfunctions, makeup mishaps, and last-minute requests. We did quite a bit of DIY planning and customizing, but on the day of, we did not need to lift a finger! We were especially impressed the the special attention paid to our priorities. My husband and I were excited about our menu and prioritized food during our planning meetings. At our wedding, the venue made sure we had plenty of opportunity to eat, but the excitement of the day took away our appetite. The Riverview team packed up all of the food we couldn’t eat and sent us home with our leftovers (plus some!) so that we still got to enjoy our meal! Another item worth noting is that although two weddings took place that night, we never would have known it! We could not hear the other wedding in our ballroom and never encountered the other group during the entire time we were on site! In short, planning our wedding at The Riverview was an amazing experience, and the wedding day itself was even better! I’d encourage anyone to book!

She listened to what we wanted and made everything even more beautiful than I could have imagined. As a former florist myself, I wouldn’t have trusted anyone else to be my florist for my special day! Work with Natalia, you won’t regret it!

My name is Allison James and I got married July 22nd, 2022! It was the absolute best day of my life and it made me realize how much I enjoy planning and coordinating weddings! I am a 5th grade teacher in Connecticut during the week! I am the type of person who is always moving and enjoys doing things and being out of the house! When I am at home, I enjoy snuggling and playing with my cat Harry who is the best boy! If you ask my friends, they will tell you that I am a hopeless romantic! I just LOVE love! I want to help you have the best day of your life at your wedding- and no request is too wild! Just ask me, I had my cat in my wedding!

I had the pleasure of working with Allison James Weddings for my special day, and I was thrilled with her services. Allison's communication style was quick, easy, and professional - she responded to emails and calls promptly and kept me updated every step of the way. Her work was organized, efficient, and creative. She brought my vision for the wedding to life perfectly, turning down no idea and executing even my most ambitious tasks with ease. Allison's attention to detail ensured everything ran smoothly despite some weather challenges. When a huge downpour and wind burst threatened to disrupt things, she worked swiftly behind the scenes to make it all look perfect again - as the bride, I barely even noticed! I appreciated her calm, capable presence on such a hectic day. If you're looking for a wedding planner who can juggle all the moving parts of your big event with grace, creativity, and care, I highly recommend Allison James Weddings.

I am extremely happy with how my hair and make up looked on my wedding day! Shelby listened and didn't neglected my preferences, she understood what I wanted and match all my expectations for the big day! I was so afraid of having over make up or lots of hair spray and excessive appearance! And that didn't happen at all because she was super professional! I just loved the way I looked natural and bright, I love my pictures and I will always remember that day as the perfect day. Shelby is part of it and a big THANK YOU to her!
