Alex Cole Weddings 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
Merrimac, MA
  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $4,000

Video exists in my life as an extension of everything I love about photography. Something drew me to it, and with the ever expanding video modes of my photo cameras, practice became commonplace. Being able to tell storying audibly as well as visually adds a level of depth that is hard to reach within photography. You can feel the story take you through a place in time. Moment capturing in all its beauty.

You won't just love Alex's photography, but you'll love working with him too. Half the stress of planning a wedding is communicating with vendors, but Alex was a dream to collaborate with - he listened to all our ideas and executed them perfectly. We're thrilled with how our pictures turned out and highly recommend Alex Cole Weddings to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and personable photographer.

A Little Heart Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
Merrimac, MA
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,995

Hi! I'm Amanda! I am a lover of color and light, whose portraits are full of genuine emotion and life. I am a documentary style wedding photographer, and I very much enjoy capturing all the little in between moments as much as I do the big moments of your day. I want you to be able to look through your album and see the moments you may have missed while you were saying I do- your sister getting a little misty while you take your vows, your aunt taking shots with your besties. I want you to see the love you share with your partner reflected in your gallery.

Amanda was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From our very first conversation, I knew she was someone special. We kept trying to plan our engagement shoot, but the weather had other ideas, and through all the rescheduling she was nothing but kind, flexible, and hilarious. She’s so down to earth, and we instantly clicked. I completely fell in love with her photography style and editing, and I am beyond happy that I trusted my gut and chose her to capture our wedding day. Amanda has this incredible ability to be completely professional without ever feeling stiff or intrusive. She somehow knows exactly when to quietly document a moment and when to step in and take charge, which trust me, was appreciated more than once on our wedding day! She always had my back. And then there are the photos… I genuinely could not have dreamed of anything more beautiful. She captured every emotion, every tiny detail, and somehow made everything feel natural and authentic instead of overly posed or staged. Also, can we talk about the flat lays?! Hello?! Absolutely obsessed. The attention to detail was unreal, and those images are some of my favorites. Amanda, thank you for giving us memories we’ll treasure for the rest of our lives. You are incredibly talented, and I cannot recommend you enough!

Merrimac, MA

  • Starts at $2,500

Bowler & Jones was founded in 1988 by Phil Bowler and Robert Dompier. Over the past 30+ years we have grown into the successful company that we are today. We have focused our vision on doing what is best for our customers by providing excellence and quality service.

From start to finish, working with Bowler & Jones was a breeze. They communicated with us in a timely way and kept everything running smoothly leading up to our wedding day. When the flowers arrived, they were absolutely gorgeous and arranged with such care. What really stood out was the thoughtful touch of adding a bouquet charm for my dad—it meant so much to us. The team clearly put effort into making sure every detail was perfect, and it showed in the final result. We felt confident in their hands and couldn't have asked for a better florist for our special day.

We couldn't have imagined how special our wedding day would be hosted at Willowdale! The venue provided use with outstanding vendor recommendations & planning details throughout the year leading up to our wedding and then our wedding coordinator, Alli, brought the whole thing home into a tightly coordinated day that was smooth & spectacular. Our guests raved about the food. The Filet Mignon is worth it & guests were stealing cookies to take home by the end of the night. Ultimately, it is hard to beat how beautiful the property is.

We eloped at this incredible venue, and we can't say enough about how wonderful our experience was. As a queer couple, it's been a little uncertain with the changing climate around queer rights, I found out through Zola that Olio was doing free services for queer couples. This venue went above and beyond to make sure our day was nothing short of perfect. They were not only accommodating but genuinely supportive and flexible with every request we had. From helping us with the lighting and guiding us on where to get the chairs, to allowing us to take photos inside before the ceremony because of the freezing weather, their kindness and attention to detail made us feel truly special. They even took behind-the-scenes photos and shared them with us, capturing moments we’ll treasure forever. A special shoutout to Sarah, who was always amazing with communication. She answered all our questions so quickly and with such warmth, which made everything so much easier and stress-free. The team made our elopement feel like an intimate celebration, and we couldn't be more grateful for their help in making our day so beautiful. If you're looking for a venue that supports queer couples and provides top-notch service, this is absolutely the place!

From the beginning, their communication was easy, professional, and consistent, which put us at ease throughout the planning process. The quality of their work and overall value was excellent - they provided a well-put-together package that included a photobooth, DJ, and uplighting. Initially, we weren't sure about booking the platinum package, but we're very glad we did. Scott was classy and appropriate for the environment, but also knew how to get the party started and get our guests cutting loose on the dance floor.

Erin Wholley Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (34 reviews)
  • Photographer

  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves Merrimac, MA

Visit my Instagram for contact info and more photography! — ErinWholleyPhotography • Weddings are a culmination of love, life, happiness, family history, commitment, art, and so much more. My love for photography and the importance it plays in remembering cherished moments spans decades. Photographs are one of the only tangible items you receive after your wedding day (aside from the memories) to help you relive this time for the rest of your days. I will hype you up all day long to make sure you are enjoying every aspect of your day with your partner— that’s truly what it’s all about!

Erin was the BEST decision we made for our wedding! The second I saw her work, I knew I wanted her to photograph our day. Before we even booked, we had a great conversation on the phone and she took the time to listen to me yap for probably an hour . I immediately felt comfortable with her and knew she was someone I wanted to work with. Erin made our wedding day so special, fun, and lighthearted. She was incredibly organized while still making everything feel easy and natural. She somehow managed to keep us on schedule while also making us feel like models. Everyone kept calling her our hype woman, and I had so many people come up to me after the wedding telling me how amazing she was. When we got our photos back, we were absolutely blown away. Erin is so talented and creative, and we genuinely loved every single photo. It made deciding what to frame almost impossible! She captured all the big moments and so many little moments that we didn’t even realize were happening. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the entire day. Her editing style is honestly the coolest. It’s moody but still light and timeless at the same time, and it fit our wedding perfectly. Beyond being an incredible photographer, Erin is just an awesome person. We seriously became friends throughout this process, and I know we’ll be reaching out to her again for any future life milestones. She took one of the best days of our lives and turned it into snapshots we’ll cherish forever. I truly cannot recommend her enough. If you’re thinking about booking Erin, do it!

Working with Alexis has been such a joy! We found her over a year ago and she did our engagement photos, and immediately we vibed with her. She brings such a good yet professional energy to her time with couples, and even though we were a little awkward she reassured us the photos would be great. And they were! She is a great communicator and answered all emails and texts within a reasonable time, and was overall so easy to work with. While we haven’t gotten our full album back yet (we just got married less than a week ago), the engagement photos were incredible and the wedding sneak peeks even better. I heard so many good things from our guests on how they found her professional yet sweet and personable. I would recommend Alexis to anyone as her work speaks for itself, and she was truly a delight, and I hope we get a chance to work with her again!

Vinwood Caterers 
Rating: 5.0 (23 reviews)
  • Caterer
  • Serves Merrimac, MA

Vinwood Caterers is proud to be consistently recognized as the North Shore’s favored catering company. And for good reason. Vinwood’s Signature Style and polished service have been behind all of our sensational events, from simple to lavish, for over 40 years. Our philosophy is simple. Offer fresh, seasonal food at its finest and serve it with style and unparalleled attention. Vinwood custom designs every event and our menus are tailored to your tastes and vision. Our flawless execution, gorgeous presentation and unequaled value will ensure that your day will be spectacular.

TL;DR - when they say full-service, they mean full-service! Easily the best food and drink we (and most of our guests) have ever had at a wedding. The staff and especially our coordinator, Erica, were highly communicative, accommodating, enthusiastic, and went above and beyond to make our wedding as great as it could have been! Well worth the price! It's worth noting that they were partnered with our venue, Olio Event Space in Peabody, MA, but I have little doubt that they'd do an excellent job just about anywhere else they're willing to go. We had first heard of Vinwood through our venue because they had specific requirements and a list of partnered vendors we more or less had to choose from without a ton of hassle. While this could have easily become a nightmare, nearly all doubt was washed away as soon as we attended a tasting they hosted. We got to experience firsthand how great their food and staff were before getting into the thick of things, and we were able to get a head start on picking entrees, hors d'oeuvres, linens, and chinaware while we were at the tasting. When we had to lock things in, Vinwood was willing and able to accommodate our handful of allergic/picky eaters and create a dessert spread (cookie, brownie, and ice cream sundae bar) for us because we didn't want a wedding cake. From there until the big day, they remained very communicative about what they needed from us and what we could expect from them throughout the process, even going so far as to help us map out the order of operations in the wedding! Finally, on the big day, Erica and her staff took care of us throughout and were all very kind and personable. They went above and beyond in helping us decorate and brighten up the space to make it perfect for us, and we were once again blown away by the service, food, and drinks. We had lots of comments during and after the wedding about how great the food and drinks were, too. They took care of everything in the table and chair setups/moves/breakdown with what Vinwood, the venue, and we provided, all in a timely manner. I'll never forget one of the staff stopping to let me know the bar was closing, and despite getting lost in conversation again and again, she personally brought over a drink for me with a wink and a smile when she saw me failing to get away. If you couldn't tell by now, I can't sing them enough praise - thank you, Vinwood!!

I had my eye on The Grove at Briar Barn Inn since it was simply a blueprint on an Instagram post. From the start, I knew it was going to be where I would get married someday. There is just something so quintessentially charming about the post and beam restaurant and the quaint New England Inn. The entire experience working with The Grove was great. We picked December 8th for not only the idea of a winter wedding but also for the holiday decor and availability for our preferred vendors. They were flexible in putting together the details and stuck to all the outlined dates and deadlines. We were assigned our wedding coordinator, Jeannine, about six weeks out as they said, and we were able to have our wedding details meeting soon after. The payment portal was easy to use, and the planning pod was intuitive and a great spot to keep important details in order. Jeannine answered all my questions promptly, and in the week leading up to the wedding, she was available for us to drop off all the decor ahead of time and spent time reviewing our vision one last time. On the day of, she was present, available, and helpful. She was detailed and organized and never pushy. She let us have our day and was there to help transition to the different elements seamlessly, paying attention to all the details so we wouldn't have to. Our guests have had only positive things to say about the entire day from the incredible food and the overall atmosphere. The only critique I have of the entire experience is the check-in process at the Inn. We had a 20 room block and ended up with 29 of the 30 rooms booked by our guests. The Inn has a very strict 2pm early check-in for 50 fee or 3pm otherwise check-in. We had a Sunday wedding in December where we had a first look and formal portraits at 2pm before a 4:00 ceremony because of the early sunset. We weren't able to stay Saturday night due to another wedding buy-out. The Grove accommodated me by making the hospitality suite available for us to get ready in; however, the Inn did not accommodate the groom getting ready. We rented out the Silo/Library for 250 to try to have a space for the men to get ready, but they didn't set up the privacy screen and there were too many people milling around for him to get changed in the non-private space. After a lot of inquiry from our wedding coordinator, our officiant, and our makeup artist, they finally let him into the room at 1:45 for the additional 50, but at that point it was only enough time for him to drop his phone and wallet. He ended up changing in the single stall bathroom in the basement of the Inn, which is a nice bathroom of course, but we would have liked a little more flexibility for us to have 1 room with early check-in to give him a bit more privacy. Flipping one room early for the bride and groom doesn't seem like a lot to ask in the grand scheme of the day or even offering some alternatives - we likely would have paid for a full extra night even if we couldn't get into the room the night before just to have the spot, but they didn't give us any options to work with until 1:45 p.m. ahead of 2pm call time. My recommendation for future couples is to negotiate into the wedding contract for something ahead of time if you could potentially run into the same issue, especially if you're out of towners who don't have other options nearby.

DJ Shyne is the difference between a good wedding and a once-in-a-lifetime, next-level, unforgettable experience. Hiring him was the single best decision we made for our wedding. He is outstanding—a true artist in his craft. It’s so clear that he’s not only dedicated to his profession but also deeply loves what he does. We gave DJ Shyne what we thought was an impossible challenge: blend pop hits, Spanish tunes, emo throwbacks, Disney jams, booty-shaking hip hop, and a long list of theme songs from our favorite TV shows and movies (everything from The White Lotus to Saw). On top of that, we added a handful of random, deeply personal songs you’d never expect at a wedding. What happened? Not only did he execute this perfectly, but he became the catalyst for a wedding that felt curated exactly to US—spinning a history of us both as individuals and our journey together woven into a seamless soundtrack. His mixing was unique, unexpected, and so much fun. As the bride, there was no place I wanted to be except on that dance floor. Our guests went wild. Compliments poured in all night and days after. We got so many texts like, “BROOO your DJ?! ” that we started to lose count. But it wasn’t just about the music. From the very first Zoom, DJ Shyne radiated charisma and professionalism. He carried that positive energy into every planning meeting and right through the reception—he even gave our speakers personal pep talks before their toasts! And when it came to group dances, he did something I’ve never seen: he stepped onto the dance floor, mic in hand, and taught the moves live. Towards the end of the Cha Cha Slide, he started teaching the crowd the moves to the Cupid Shuffle so by the time it started they were already doing it!!! No confusion, no awkward guessing, just pure joy and inclusion. He quickly became the vendor we looked forward to meeting with most. We ended each Zoom call feeling assured, uplifted, and excited about the possibilities. Out of everyone we worked with, he was the best. It does not get better than DJ Shyne. He isn’t just the DJ your wedding needs, he’s the DJ your wedding deserves.

Elegant plantings and cultivated grounds fill this public garden with vibrancy that's more than a century in the making. Long Hill is a property of The Trustees of Reservations, a Massachusetts non-profit corporation. From 1916 to 1979, Long Hill was the summer home of noted author and editor of The Atlantic Monthly, Ellery Sedgwick. He summered here with his first wife, Mabel Cabot Sedgwick, an accomplished horticulturist, gardener, and author of The Garden Month by Month, and his second wife, Marjorie Russell Sedgwick, a rare plants specialist—both of whom created a delightful, enchanting landscape, surrounded by more than 100 acres of woodland. Today, visitors delight in the beauty of Long Hill’s structured and naturalistic gardens as well as a network of woodland trails. A diverse collection of trees, shrubs, and distinctive perennial plants provide color during the growing season, peaking in May and June and providing structure and beauty throughout the year.

From the moment we first reached out to the team at Long Hill, their communication was fast, helpful, hands-on and incredibly kind. They truly went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was like something out of a fairytale. The venue itself was a picturesque garden, with an ethereal, storybook feel that made our special day feel like it was straight out of a dream. The staff helped us navigate all the timing and logistics, and were especially thoughtful in how they handled the dynamics of our large, blended family. Helena, the event coordinator, was a true gem - she provided invaluable guidance on the floor plans and decor that helped bring our vision to life. From start to finish, the Long Hill team made our wedding day perfect, and I would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a truly magical experience.

Working with Madeline was a DREAM! When first meeting her she is so warm and welcoming and put me right at ease. Her knowledge in makeup is incredible and made sure to talk me through what she planned on doing. I normally don’t wear makeup so I was nervous it would look caked on or I wouldn’t look like myself but Madeline’s natural glam made me feel beautiful, confident and still like myself. She and her team (we worked with Jen) were so wonderful, timely and considerate! She touched up every girl I had with me before she left making sure they all loved how they looked. I can’t recommend her enough! She is the absolute best MUA around! Thank you Madeline

  • Starts at $2,700
  • Serves Merrimac, MA
  • Offer

I'm Marc Sadowski, a New England wedding photographer with 20+ years of experience capturing weddings across New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont, and beyond. My approach is candid and documentary — I stay back, watch, and wait for the moments that happen when you forget the camera is there. I learned photography as a photojournalist, where you get one shot or you miss it forever. That instinct drives everything I do on your wedding day.

We had an absolutely incredible experience with Marc! When we were interested in booking him, he recommended we have a call first to discuss our vision for our wedding and the logistics we knew of so far. After we booked, we had another call the month of the wedding to go over all of our details. He left no question unanswered and was able to make sure we incorporated everything we wanted for photos into our wedding. Day of our wedding, Marc could not have done a better job capturing our first look, family photos, portraits, ceremony, and reception. He led us through a series of poses that felt natural and had us both at ease the entire time. We relied on his expertise for backgrounds and overall vision of the photos, and he exceeded our expectations. He was great with our friends and families, and captured any photos throughout the night that we requested. He went above and beyond getting the photos back to us in a timely manner. I can’t recommend enough hiring Marc for your wedding or event!
