DJ Sam is a miracle. He had every detail planned and organized for us. We had three different songs for our ceremony so I was a little stressed the timing could be off but it was absolutely flawless. He was communicating with us during the entire planning process and he made the entire wedding planning experience easier and more pleasant. He even communicated with the bridal party and our parents to make sure they were confident in their roles and commitments. The custom lighting he brought was absolutely stunning!!! We picked songs for our playlist and he added the most perfect additions. He had everyone up and dancing all night. I could go on and on but just do yourself a favor and book him!!!

The Bristol Event Center made all our NYE wedding dreams come true! The venue is absolutely gorgeous, from the floor to ceiling windows, tall ceilings, huge bars, and high-end finishes. Everything was sparkling and new. Having two spacious hospitality suites upstairs to get ready in (or to touch-up during the reception) was a huge bonus. The staff at the BEC was amazing, from our initial tour to the day of. They are experts in the hospitality industry. They got back to us quickly with any question and were extremely accommodating with all our requests. Even our vendors commented how great they were to work with! Food was very important to us and the BEC nailed it! It was difficult to narrow down our hors d'oeuvres choices because everything was so amazing at the tasting. The chef was extremely accommodating to all our requests, including a huge raw bar during cocktail hour which was the talk of the wedding. Lastly, I can’t emphasize how convenient it was for our guests to stay in the hotel next door. Our guests stayed at the DoubleTree which was a 2 minute walk, or they could take one of the shuttles that staff were running back and forth. We also had our afterparty in one of the hotel ballrooms. Staff from both the BEC and Doubletree worked together to make this seamless. It will be even more convenient now that the connected Home2Suites is open for guests! Overall, our experience with the Bristol Event Center was a 1000/10. If you’re looking for a brand-new, sparkling venue with amazing service, food, and convenience, this is your place.

Emily's Catering was an extraordinary part of our wedding day at South Farms in Morris, CT. Rick and his team handled everything wonderfully; They were organized, prompt, responsive, enthusiastic, creative, and VERY well-priced. Because we decided not to hire a planner, it was crucial that we retain vendors who could operate self-sufficiently, and Emily's truly went above and beyond in every respect. They even accommodated serving my husband's home-brew, including making wood signs for us as a surprise. My husband and I still talk about how much we loved and appreciated them, and we enthusiastically recommend them to anyone seeking the perfect caterer for their wedding.

  • Starts at $7,500
  • Serves Manchester, CT

We’re a husband and wife team and have been shooting weddings together since 2014. We’re interested in the raw emotion and real moments that make up your day. We love shooting real super 8mm film! Our inspirations include film photography, beautiful light, good storytelling, and love!

Awarded Best of Zola
It's hard to capture a romance that has lasted well over a decade, but Justin & Steph from American Rose Weddings did just that in the 15+ collective hours we spent with them. During the wedding planning process, securing a videographer was the last vendor we booked. Not because we were dragging our feet, but because we we could not find a videographer who matched our vision. We wanted the day to be remembered in a unique, authentic, timeless, and intimate way, but most of all, we wanted it to feel like "us." We wanted a videographer who could capture the small details that oftentimes go unnoticed during the day, but paint best picture of who the couple is. We didn't someone to just film the day, add orchestra audio, and call it a day. We wanted a unique storytelling experience from start to finish with someone who was a skilled cinematographer. After Skyping with Justin (and him showing me his collection of super8 cameras which was SO cool), I knew that it was a perfect match. We met Justin & Steph in-person during a couples shoot at our home. Immediately, we formed a connection. They were so easy to be around and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. I could see the wheels turning in Justin's mind as the camera rolled, and I immediately could tell that Justin & Steph already knew what kind of story we wanted to have told. When the big day arrived, they were a calming presence in a swarm of craziness. After the wedding, we met up with Justin & Steph at a brewery to finish recording reading our letters to each other. This was the moment that reminded my husband and I that not only did we luck out in the wedding vendor department, but we just gained 2 new amazing friends. When we received the sneak peek and full video suite back (very promptly, I might add!), we could not believe what was in front of us. It was more than we could have ever hoped for. It was unlike any other wedding film we had seen before. It captured our romance and special day so perfectly. As my mom said, the video looked like a "a true Hollywood film." Working with Justin & Steph was one of the best decisions we made during the wedding planning process. When we look back fondly on 7/24/21, they are the reason that we will be able to do so clearly.

Hi friends! We’re Dan and Rebecca! After working together for many years, Dan won me (Rebecca) over with his genius cocktail creations and bartending skills. But, legend has it that my bartending skills are what really sealed the deal as we’re now married with two daughters, Scarlett and Josephine. We wanted to expand our love for liquor, meet new people, and make friends so we came up with The LiquoristMD. We had never heard of a mobile bar in Connecticut but were inspired by the many mobile bars we follow down South and the rest was history!

We hired Mr. Liquorist MD for our wedding, and it was one of the best decisions we made! Dan was incredibly helpful from start to finish, working with us to craft custom cocktails that perfectly fit our special day. The drinks were absolutely amazing, and our guests loved the personalized touch. Dan’s professionalism really stood out, especially when some guests started ordering off-menu. He handled it with ease, ensuring everyone was happy without skipping a beat. The bar setup was sleek and added such a fun and classy vibe to our celebration. If you’re looking for a top-notch portable bar service, Mr. Liquorist MD is the way to go. Dan truly made our day unforgettable. Highly recommend!

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

So, you need a makeup artist? You've come to the right place. Makeup has always been a passion in my life. I started dancing at three years old and with a mother whose makeup routine is a tinted lip balm and blush as a foundation -- let's just say we learned together over the years or rather, once I learned she just let me take over. I was confidently the only seven-year-old in my class getting myself ready for my recitals. From then on I was hooked, I mean makeup was an activity that encouraged the use of glitter... need I say anymore?

For any event it’s fun to get your makeup done and Lora is wonderful. She knows how to blend colors and create this magical masterpiece on your face. I didn’t want to wash it off at night ! Would highly recommend as a makeup artist.

What I love most about Terri is how she is able to really work with all types of styles for her clients. From Glam to rustic she is so very talented. Each client I have sent to her has been blown away by her offerings as well as guests of the weddings. I highly recommend her to my clients!

We are Andante Strings, a Connecticut-based music ensemble providing beautiful music for special events in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. We primarily perform at wedding ceremonies but can also enhance a cocktail hour, private party, memorial service, or other gathering. We will happily work with you to ensure your musical needs are met.

Andante Strings was a fantastic addition to our wedding day. From our very first interaction, their communication was efficient, friendly, and knowledgeable, putting us at ease throughout the planning process. On the day of, they were incredibly talented, accommodating, and punctual - the live music they provided for our ceremony was a truly special touch that our guests raved about. They were the first vendor I booked and I was so excited to have them as part of my vendor team. I would highly recommend Andante Strings to any couple looking for a top-notch musical act to elevate their wedding celebration.
