Modern Strings trio played at my wedding on June 28, 2024 - they were absolutely magnificent!! From the second I booked my venue, I knew the very first vendor I had to book was Modern Strings. I had followed Modern Strings for some time and knew it was the most important vendor for me to have! Modern Strings played for my ceremony as well as cocktail hour. They set the stage for an emotional, elegant ceremony; then followed by a beautiful upbeat cocktail hour. Our guests were floored by the modern music played on string instruments. Our wedding was everything we could have ever dreamed of and we have Modern Strings to thank for being such a special part of our day! P.S. Peep the emotion on my face walking down the aisle; the music really let us feel so in the moment of an incredibly special celebration!

DJ Rubin and David W. were both amazing! David was very accommodating and has a vision in capturing what he wants. The package was reasonable and it was beyond everything we expected and more. DJ Rubin was praised by not just us but by all the family there for being engaging and being able to blend both old classics with new modern Pop music along with EDM and a little bit of DnB near the end of the night. As a fellow raver, he understood what we wanted and was very thoughtful in his song selection. He was also teaching people how to dance on the dance floor to keep the crowd engaged, participating and enjoying themselves. I wouldn't be surprised if our family wants to hire him and his team in future events because of how unforgettable the reception was for our wedding. For those who want a team who crafts your needs into something special and unique and gets everyone talking about the experience, definitely hire DJ Rubin and David W!

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).

Kate was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding! Her communication throughout the process was clear, understanding, and attentive, and she was always quick to respond. The quality of her work was truly professional, and the floral design was exactly what I had envisioned for our special day! She was also incredibly flexible, making last-minute changes to our order the month before the wedding without any issues. The setup and overall design was absolutely beautiful - especially our ceremony arch! I would highly recommend Fountainhead Floral Design to any couple looking for a reliable, talented, and customer-focused wedding florist!

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.

Timeless, editorial imagery with a warm, documentary approach.

Her eye for detail and ability to capture real emotion is incredible. The photos perfectly reflect our personalities and love story, and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. We're beyond excited that she'll be capturing our wedding day too- we already know the photos will be amazing!

Lauri was fantastic to work with and we are so grateful we found her. She was a caring a nurturing presence throughout, was very receptive to our requested changes as we planned the ceremony script, and was clearly motivated by doing what would be right for us. She met with me and my fiance about four times during our wedding planning process to get to know us and modify our ceremony plan/script to what spoke most to us most as a couple. She was knowledgable about a variety of cultural traditions and helped us incorporate the Irish Hand Fasting Blessing into our ceremony, providing us with an everlasting, unique memory and memento (the handfasting chord) of our promises to each other. We received several compliments from our wedding guests about Lauri's ease and professionalism while she officiated our wedding. We highly recommend her! - Tess, May 2025 Bride, Bill Miller's Castle

I had the pleasure of working with Carleen and her team once as a bridesmaid in a friends wedding and I loved their work so much I booked her for my wedding day! Her hair stylists are extremely talented and gave everyone the style they were looking for from my bridesmaids to mothers and she even was able to style a wig for my mom! Plus I loved the option of being able to rent extensions from her instead of trying to color match and buy my own - really helpful that she offered this! I totally recommend them especially if you have thin hair it helped add so much volume and lasted all night. The makeup was absolutely flawless, everyone was color matched perfectly. My makeup lasted the FULL night, even after hours of outdoor photos I was always surprised when I looked in the mirror and everything was still in place! I truly felt the most beautiful I ever have that day thanks to Carleen and her team! Not to mention she has a super user friendly portal and booking system so it makes working with them even easier! Highly recommend booking for your wedding!

We were never without a beverage and were well fed (almost too full!). Mary was our coordinator, and was never hard to reach. We chose this venue for a few reasons: we would have the venue for the whole day to ourselves, all-inclusive with fantastic food and great drinks, a solid indoor/rain option for the ceremony, and a coordinator was included.

Hey there! A little background information about me. My name is Aleksandra. I am 36 years old based out of Waterbury, CT. Makeup has always been a passion of mine, ever since I was little you could find me doing my mom, little sister, and grandma's hair and makeup. I always wanted a career in the industry but never thought it was attainable. Until I reached a point in my life where I decided to take a leap of faith pack my bags and drive down to Georgia where my older sister (a master MUA who owns her own agency) lives.

Aleks and her team are so professional and easy to work with. Aleks was helpful during and after the makeup trial we had. She was very supportive when my skin was having issues and was able to provide very helpful advice when I reached out to her about it. She asked me questions about my skin care and was able to recommend some things to try to sort out my skin issues before the big day. The day of the wedding, my vision was brought to life from my hair to my makeup! My skin was glowing! And she made sure my bridesmaids loved their looks too! 10/10 would recommend!

As a veteran DJ with 20+ years of experience and 250+ weddings, I create sophisticated, custom music programs based on your tastes. I handle all audio logistics—from timeline planning to day-of run-of-show. Pricing: Evening Celebration ($1,900): Cocktail, Dinner, and Dancing with 2 sound stations and polished MC services. Full Day Experience ($2,500): 3 sound stations plus my battery-powered ceremony system for vows on beaches or gardens—no noisy generators. My resume includes tours in the U.S./Europe/Japan, and playing alongside artists like Drake, Calvin Harris, and LCD Soundsystem. I bring elite professionalism to every event.

As someone with a background in the events and music industry, my standards for production are incredibly high. Edwin (DJ Konsept) completely exceeded them for my wife Emily and my wedding in Montauk, NY. From our first conversation, Edwin was the consummate professional. His communication is exceptional- he is highly responsive, asked detailed questions to understand our specific vision, took careful notes, and was completely open to direction. We gave him a complex, multi-stage run-of-show, and he executed every phase flawlessly. He managed our outdoor ceremony, providing perfectly balanced mics and audio so everyone could hear our vows. He then seamlessly transitioned to setting the mood for our outdoor cocktail hour, and ultimately closed the night out by crushing a high-energy indoor afterparty. He arrived over-prepared with backup equipment and intuitively grasped the distinct musical vibe needed for each portion of the day. Technically, Edwin is a master. His beat-matching, transitions, and ability to read a room's energy are unmatched. He completely avoided the typical "cheesy" wedding tracks, weaving together exactly the right mix to keep our guests engaged. Furthermore, his pricing is incredibly fair and transparent, offering immense value for the high-end talent and peace of mind he brings to the table. If you want an incredibly talented, stress-free professional who operates with style and a cool, collected energy, you need to hire Edwin. He made our wedding day absolutely magical!

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

The team at Hart Bridal Company was amazing to work with leading up to my wedding day. Nickie was always quick to respond to any questions I had, which really put my mind at ease during the hectic planning process. On the day of, Nickie and Chelsea had an incredible attention to detail, ensuring that everyone in my bridal party - including my very active flower girl - looked and felt their absolute best. I was thrilled with how beautiful and polished we all looked, and received so many compliments from our guests. Hart Bridal Company truly went above and beyond to contribute to making our special day perfect.

We just got married on Nov 1st and the day/night was absolutely seamless thanks to RS Event Co. Everything went perfectly and it was truly one of the most wonderful days of my life. When I first started planning our wedding I didn’t think I would need a day-of wedding coordinator- until the months got closer and I realized how much work would actually go into making the day flow the way I envisioned it. We had heard of Raquel through a family friend, so I decided to give her a call. Raquel was personable, proactive and thought of everything I never even thought to consider. She helped us maneuver the months leading to our special day, checking in often and answering every random text. Whatever hiccups there might have been the day-of my husband and I didn’t notice because she was on top of even the smallest detail. We adored working with Raquel and her team. Our wedding was an absolute blast, which I owe to RS Event Co ensuring our vision was exactly what we wanted it to be. My only regret is not calling her sooner!!!!!!

Can not express how much I love the photos from my wedding at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in NYC! Every single image captured the magic, beauty, and emotion of the day in a way that took my breath away. From the moment we booked her, our photographer was an absolute dream to work with so kind, incredibly flexible, and beyond professional. She took the time to understand the importance and sacredness of the venue, navigating everything with such respect and grace. With the hustle and bustle of New York City and a tight timeline, she handled everything seamlessly. She arrived early, stayed on schedule, and somehow made us feel totally at ease the entire time. She gently guided us through poses without ever making anything feel staged or unnatural, and she captured the in-between moments so beautifully. Her ability to adapt to last-minute changes and still deliver the most breathtaking images is truly a gift. She was patient, warm, and genuinely excited for us, which meant the world. I’ll treasure these photos forever. If you’re looking for someone talented, thoughtful, and reliable, I cannot recommend her enough!

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.

I would 1000% recommend JR media. He took out court house wedding photos and they were so beautiful. We would definetly book him again in the future. He was prompt, easy to work with, gave us directions which we loved, and made this special moment extra special. Don’t think twice about it just book. The photos were very clear. I uploaded some to Zola. I hope Zola doesn’t diminish the quality but the photos was on point and great quality camera.
