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 $6,400

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.

I haven’t even seen all my photos yet, but I don’t need to, to write this. Amanda is the absolute best. Obviously her photos are stunning but she’s so much more than that. They day of the wedding she is everything, acts as a second coordinator, keeping the time, making sure we have everything (flowers, the rings, literally everything) and in my delusion not having prepared any umbrellas, she had extra cute white ones. She even was the one to put my veil on when my bridesmaids disappeared into the venue. Her calm demeanor creates such a sense of security. We truly would’ve been lost without her. It’s pretty much just a bonus that her photos are insane.

Merrimac, MA
  • Florist
  • 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Sarah and her team are wonderful! My wife and I had our elopement ceremony here as they were offering free services to LGBTQ couples. It was so heartwarming knowing that the Olio team was able to provide these opportunities to us and so many couples at this time. Becca was onsite the day of our ceremony and was so kind and helpful. Her calm demeanor and joyful energy didn’t go unnoticed to us! The physical space of Olio speaks for itself- elegant, stunning and unique!

Awarded Best of Zola
I very recently got married, and the planning leading up to the wedding went so smoothly and so quickly! Venue, florals, photography- things got checked off our list with relative ease. Then we got a bit stuck- we needed an officiant! It can seem like a simple pick, but if you don’t want to have a friend or family get ordained, and you’re not a member of a traditional religion, it can be a harder match to make. But then, we found Tara at Witchy Woman Weddings and reached out immediately. We’re so glad we did!! Inquiry was simple and responses were fast. We only spoke through email leading up to the day itself, but Tara does have the option to book meetings if you’d prefer some face-to-face contact in the lead up to your big day. She has such a peaceful and warm presence that, even if you’re meeting her for the first time at the altar for the ceremony as I did, you feel that calm and kind energy emanating towards you. The process for creating your ceremony script is both easy and personalized- Tara has an in-depth questionnaire to fill out that covers a wide range of topics so she can tailor the ceremony to your unique story and the vibe you’re aiming to create. It really covers all the bases but doesn’t feel daunting to complete. After that, she delivers a sample script and makes sure to note that edits can be made if there is anything you want changed- we didn’t make a single change to ours! We got emotional just reading through our draft and were amazed at how she captured us in the writing. To sum all this up, I am beyond grateful to have found Tara. She was the perfect person to join us together, mixing elements of both the traditional and the not-so-traditional on our Friday the 13th wedding. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a truly special, unique, and heartfelt ceremony. At the risk of sounding a little cheesy, she truly helped make our day a magical one!

It’s been one month since our wedding and every day I go back to how absolutely beautiful the day was. Liz and her team were the central part of that. With a December winter wedding, many of the traditional floral options were not applicable, but with Liz's guidance, we realized very quickly that just because most flowers may not be in season, doesn't mean that it is still not an absolutely beautiful time of year. Liz and her team effortlessly draped beautiful garland throughout our venue, transformed the central staircase into something out of a storybook, and made a winter arch piece that it still hanging on our front porch as a stunning winter decoration. It was dotted with cinnamon sticks, and ornaments, and dried orange peels in a way that we could never have thought of. It was so creative and magical and made it clear that Liz had seen our vision and expanded on it in such an incredible way. Additionally, when Liz walked in with the bridal bouquets, everyone could not stop admiring and obsessing over them. With the gorgeous variety of blooms and greens, it was truly the most beautiful bouquet I could have imagined. Even more so than the pinterest boards we all obsess over. Lastly, Liz's professionalism was second to none. She made us feel so comfortable and supported throughout the process. She was even able to incorporate pieces of my gown that had been cut off during alterations to add an even more personal, and sparkly(!), touch to the bouquets. I cannot recommend Liz enough. She made my husband and I feel so special and seen during our day, and I hope that you are lucky enough to feel the same way!

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.

Marc and his team were an absolute joy to work with! They did an amazing job, capturing the most perfect and beautiful photos for our wedding. They were hardly noticeable while there, and caught moments that we would have never thought to have captured. Marc and his team truly demonstrate what it means to be professional photographers in every sense of the job, and my husband and I highly recommend booking with them!

The shots of everyone dancing are hilarious and heartwarming at the same time. You can feel the energy of that night just by looking at the photos. The editing is beautiful but still feels natural. Nothing looks overdone, it just feels like US. These memories are going to stay with us forever and I am just so thankful for their talent.

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.

We had the pleasure of working with Vinwood for our July 2025 wedding at The Evermore. From the very beginning, Vinwood was organized, clear, communicative and helpful. We worked with Liz during the whole planning process, and she was WONDERFUL! Her bubbly personality and expertise made us feel comfortable and excited. Liz was thorough, communicative and helpful with every single detail of planning. Vinwood’s extensive list of options and choices were so fun to choose from, and the ability to customize many of the choices was a great surprise. Our guests RAVED about the food and its beautiful presentation. The stunning grazing table at our cocktail hour was the topic of many family conversations, as well as how the delicious passed appetizers seemed endless! The food at our reception was fresh, hot, delicious and plated beautifully. The bartenders were friendly and efficient, and our signature drinks were better than we hoped for. On the day of our wedding, Kristin was our coordinator. It’s hard to find words to describe how incredible she was. From the moment she arrived, Kristin was the perfect mix of calm, excited, and prepared. She made us, our bridal party and our immediate families feel relaxed, taken care of, and SPOILED! Kristin handled everything for us behind the scenes, never appeared flustered, and went above and beyond to make our day enjoyable. From communicating with vendors, coordinating with the photographer, organizing big moments, and making sure everyone had what they needed, Kristin was the magic sauce that made our wedding the most wonderful day. My mom won’t stop talking about how Kristin offered to grab her more comfortable shoes,or how she insisted we should NEVER wait in a line for a drink or refreshment. We haven’t stopped raving about Kristin since the day of, and we’ll always feel grateful she was part of our special day. Thank you Vinwood team! You are the wedding industry’s version of a chef’s kiss.

Christine was wonderful to work with. From the first call we had you could tell this is a passion for her. Between our zoom calls and emails she was easy to get ahold of and was happy to answer any questions we had. To ensure we had a ceremony that was true to who we are as a couple, she shared an example of a ceremony script she’d just done and then asked us to provide her with our love story and what we like about each other. From there she took this information and wove it into a beautiful ceremony that was personalized, paid tribute to our moms, had a little humor in it and most importantly felt natural. We were able to collaborate after she put together the first draft for any changes. On the day of she arrived early making sure everything was all set and the ceremony would go off without a hitch. I would highly recommend using Christine if you’re looking for a professional JP who really cares about what she does.

Choosing Esther as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From our first conversation, Esther communicated in a way that felt clear and thoughtful, which helped us feel confident in our choice. During both our engagement photoshoot and our wedding day she helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera- which we both thought would be a challenge! The photos she delivered are stunning and we will treasure them forever! We can't recommend Esther highly enough to any couple looking for a photographer who will perfectly capture their day!
