Sixpence Studios 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
Middlebury, VT
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $7,995

Our mother-daughter team brings a unique perspective to wedding photography. We understand the importance of family and relationships, and we work hard to capture the emotion and beauty of your special day. The studio is based in central Vermont, but we also serve, Maine, New Hampshire, Upstate New York (Saratoga Springs Area), Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

“From the beginning, my husband and I knew that we wanted both a photographer and a short video for our wedding, and ideally, we hoped to find one vendor who could deliver both. I discovered Sixpence Studios while browsing The Knot, and was immediately drawn to the beautiful photos and videos showcased on their website and social media platforms. Working with Joanna was an absolute pleasure. She was extremely easy to communicate with, whether by email or telephone, which made the lead-up to our wedding incredibly smooth and stress-free. Before the wedding, Joanna provided us with a detailed questionnaire. Completing it was helpful for all aspects of our planning process. Joanna made herself available to go through the questionnaire with us, answering questions, discussing the timeline, and offering her insights on important considerations like daylight, weather, and family harmony. Her guidance made the planning process much more manageable. On the wedding day, Joanna, Rhiannon, and Nick were simply amazing. They arrived while I was getting my hair and makeup done, and Joanna mentioned that Nick was outside flying a drone to capture video footage for our wedding film—I was instantly impressed! Throughout the day, the team guided us with warmth, humor, professionalism, and careful attention to detail. When Joanna came to let us know they were leaving at the end of our reception, I genuinely didn’t want them to go; we enjoyed their presence that much. Another guest even commented on how lovely they were. The team achieved the perfect balance: they were present to capture special moments but never intrusive, which was especially important for our small wedding. Their approach truly was an art. The photos and video turned out to be absolute perfection. We were married in January in Vermont, and I had always envisioned our wedding like a scene inside a snow globe—nature delivered on that vision. Our day was everything we wanted, but it went by so quickly that I wished we could somehow bottle up the experience. When we watched our video and saw a scene that perfectly captured that vision, it took our breath away and even brought both of us to tears. The attention to small details made everything extra special. Sixpence Studios sent a sixpence for my shoe for good luck, and included a beautiful wedding gift along with our thumb drive. These thoughtful gestures meant so much to us. I could not recommend Sixpence Studios more highly. They made our wedding experience truly unforgettable.”

“Eightzero2 Productions was an exceptional choice for my daughter’s wedding videography. From our first interaction, Amanda demonstrated a professional, calm and prompt communication style that immediately put us at ease. On the day of the wedding, she was incredibly helpful yet remained unobtrusive, seamlessly capturing all the special moments without drawing attention to herself. The final video is truly stunning - her creative eye and technical expertise is evident in the polished, cinematic quality of the footage.

“Bridget and Thomas at Farmhouse Flowers were absolutely amazing to work with as the venue, florist, bartenders, and day-of coordinators for our wedding in October 2025. We live in Chicago and planned our wedding from afar, so it was incredible to work with a team that made everything so simple for us. They worked with our other vendors, gave great suggestions for how to structure everything, and really made the whole weekend amazing. Bridget's vision on the florals was incredible; we wanted a colorful wedding, and the flowers really tied everything together. The venue was perfect: it delivered the intimate, Vermont feel we wanted (including a cow named Happy that just so happened to be staying at the farm that weekend) but was also easy to get to and eased any fears about making last-minute changes due to inclement weather. AND Bridget and Thomas cleaned up after the party which made such a difference in our ability to enjoy ourselves. We had an incredible experience and highly recommend.”

We wanted our engagement shoot at our family camp, which is pretty far off the beaten path, and Corinne didn’t even blink—she happily made the drive out to meet us!

“Abigail, Molly, Megan and the whole sugarbush team did an amazing job in our end of August wedding. Molly worked closely with us for 8 months, very professional, responsive and helpful in assisting us finding vendors and coordinating with vendors. She not only made detailed arrangements and timetables for wedding parties, also proactively reached out to photographer, DJ, florists and bakery to made sure everything is in place. We enjoyed our wedding day simply following Molly and Megan’s lead. Their team made everything smooth, especially when we encountered guest change and extra guest issue. Molly solved it super quickly. We also chose to reserved most of the rooms in the claybrook hotel so it is very convenient for welcome party and the wedding. We could not go up the mountain due to raining and windy but we had wedding on the grass. The photos came out so nice. Our guests gave us so many compliments.

“20/10 recommend getting married on the Mountain Top! The venue in and of itself is a DREAM. The staff and servers went above and beyond. Shout out to the events coordinator manager, Danny, who quite literally was always smiling and checking in on us our entire wedding weekend. My husband and I live out in Seattle, but we’re both from Massachusetts. We wanted somewhere in New England that has that rugged mountain landscape, but also somewhere everyone could join us for the whole weekend. I’m so obsessed with it here, can’t WAIT to come back! We used Meadows Edge Florals for our flowers/decorations, and I have nothing but AMAZING things to say about Gayle and her team. We used Juniper Studios for photography and Angela and Idena’s talents are something I can’t even put into words. Best decisions I’ve ever made.”

When I first started wedding photography, I made a goal of being more than just the photographer on your big day. I made it my goal to be your friend, someone you can crack inside jokes with, and someone who isn't afraid to get down + have fun at the reception (while still doing her job). I made it my goal to capture more than just photos, but an experience. Whether it’s high in the mountains, on a beach near the ocean, in a forest meadow - you deserve to get married however you want to & I want to capture it for you.

“We were thrilled to work with Hazel & Spice Photography for our wedding day. From our first conversation, Lexi's enthusiasm and kindness made us feel confident we'd made the right choice. She has a gift for making everyone feel at ease in front of the camera, which showed in our engagement session and throughout the wedding day—the photos are absolutely gorgeous. What really stood out was how genuinely invested she was in capturing our relationship and the moments that mattered to us. Beyond her incredible talent behind the lens, Lexi is just a lovely person to be around, which made the whole experience feel special. We couldn't be happier with our decision and highly recommend her to any couple looking for a photographer.”

“We got married at Stickney Farms last weekend, and we really can't explain how wonderful it was. We had all our friends and family stay on the property with us, we used the field for giant games of kickball, volleyball, badminton, and capture the flag. We swam in the waterfalls on the property, walked the trails, and took in the beautiful valley views all day every day. The dancehall was everything you could hope for as a dinner venue - historic, elegant, and magical. The owners are incredibly kind, responsive, and wonderful people. Being able to use the property and do our own food and flowers and everything else let us have exactly the wedding we hoped to have.

Hey there! I’m Rachel, founder and principal planner at RVE, and I’m not your average wedding planner. I launched my planning company in 2022 from the mountains of Vermont, after years in the wedding industry learning, growing, and honing my craft. Around here, we do things a little differently. I believe wedding planning should feel like a celebration, not a stress test—and that’s where my signature style of laid-back luxury comes in!

Awarded Best of Zola
“TLDR: Hire Rachel, she is excellent at her job and will make all your event dreams come true! Throughout the year leading up to my wedding, the question I got the most was “is the wedding planning stressful?” And my reply, every single time, was “no, because I have the most amazing wedding planner.” I cannot recommend Rachel Vitagliano Events enough. She planned our wedding, which was a double feature including a picnic ceremony at the lake in the morning followed by an 80s Prom reception in the evening. Two very different vibes, a lot to coordinate, plan, and decorate, and Rachel and her team went above and beyond every step of the way. We had meetings every couple months throughout the year, and Rachel always had an answer to every question, never missing a beat. She has an online portal that made organization easy and pleasant. She has amazing ideas and vision. Any time I got overwhelmed, she was immediately able to ease my concerns and I felt so much better after every time we spoke. For the Prom reception, that took place at the City Hall, the only thing we gave her was a color scheme and a Pinterest board. From that she created a mesmerizing portal through time that made every single guests’ jaws drop. People could not stop talking about how amazing it looked. For reference, see the pictures below – the sparkling, dreamlike Prom compared to how it looked the NEXT DAY, set up for a local vote. These photos are also a testament to how fast and thorough her team’s clean up was! The fire alarm even went off in the middle of the reception, and I had no idea that Rachel spent almost an hour trouble shooting and dealing with the fire department (there was no fire). I didn’t even know this was going on—she goes above and beyond to deal with the stress so that her clients have the perfect time. Rachel brought all of our dreams to life and somehow made them even better than we imagined. She is so incredibly good at every aspect of her job. My wedding was perfect and an absolute dream, in large part because of Rachel. Hiring her will be the best decision you could make for your event planning!!”

From our first conversation, their communication was clear and easy to work with, and they listened closely to what we wanted while bringing their own artistic touch to make everything even prettier. What impressed us most was their flexibility—they genuinely wanted to bring our vision to life without compromising their talent. On the day of our wedding, they had three deliveries to manage, but you'd never know it from how calm and kind they were when they arrived right on time. Every detail was perfect, and their hard work made our flowers absolutely stunning. We're so grateful to Emslie the Florist & Gifts for being such an important part of our special day!”

Vermont Bridal Beauty 
Rating: 5.0 (7 reviews)
  • Beauty professional
  • Starts at $1,250
  • Serves Middlebury, VT

Bridal hair and makeup is a specialized skill - it needs to withstand many hours of happy tears, hugs, dancing, and, of course, dinner and drinks. With over a decade of experience in bridal beauty, Amanda has perfected how to create timeless looks that photograph beautifully and look incredible in person. Her passion for hair and makeup dates back to childhood Barbie spa days. After becoming a licensed cosmetologist everything began to come together when she began to do bridal work. Her love for hair and makeup connected seamlessly and she now focuses her energy in the beauty realm solely on bridal beauty.

“Do not hesitate to book Vermont Bridal Beauty if you can!!! I can't say enough great things about their professionalism and artistry. I had Rachael do my wedding hair along with my mom's and 5 bridesmaids. Since I don't live in the area, I skipped the trial, but Rachael FaceTimed me a few weeks beforehand to get to know me and my vision for the day - she even asked about my wedding vibes and what my dress looked like to advise on cohesiveness! I was a little worried about the length of my hair fitting my original vision since I had just gotten it cut, and she sent me a link to inexpensive but high quality extensions to buy, which worked out beautifully, just as she'd promised! Morning of, Rachael arrive promptly and was SO attentive to everyone. She would check in with each girl as she did their hair and made sure everyone was happy with what she was doing, listened to feedback and made changes, and everyone looked and felt so beautiful! My hair (first photo) came out exactly how I pictured and described, but better yet it looked just as good by the end of the night (second photo), and my wedding lasted until 2am with a LOT of dancing and sweat! She also just had such a calming energy which helped keep any nerves at bay. This part is probably won't be applicable to most brides, but I feel is worth mentioning to highlight their professionalism, but one of my bridesmaids was sick the morning of the wedding and opted to sleep in instead of getting hair and makeup done. Rachael immediately told me she would refund me her portion, which she definitely wasn't obligated to since I had booked and signed a contract for a certain amount of services. Bottom line, if you're reading this and thinking about booking with them, do it!!!”

Cassie & Chelsea have been in the wedding industry for a combined 25+ years and know the ins and outs of all things weddings! We have worked to build long lasting and strong vendor relationships to ensure seamless and flawless events.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I cannot say enough good things about Wild Fern! Cassie and Chelsea bring decades of wedding planning experience and it shows! Everything they do is filled with intention - from the fact that they only take on two weddings a month, to how they divide tasks on wedding day, to the cadence of check-ins during the planning process. I hired Wild Fern to help me with the last three months of planning through our wedding weekend, and Cassie was there to support not only with logistics and vendor meetings, but also with the stress of it all. She anticipated my needs and questions before I could even ask them. I truly don't know if I could have kept my head while crossing the finish line if it weren't for Cassie. Everyone kept commenting how calm I was as a bride on our wedding day, and it was truly because I trusted Cassie and Chelsea and knew they would execute my vision to a T. If you're looking for a high-touch, well-organized planning team with strong vendor relationships, look no further than Wild Fern. As a bonus, they also have a sister business, Wild Fern Rentals, and offer some really stunning statement rentals that will transform your space. I've said to multiple people that hiring them was the best wedding-related purchase I made, and not only did we have a beautiful wedding weekend, but we gained Cassie as a friend for life.”

  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Middlebury, VT

Garren Poirier is the name and I CAN'T say I've been into photography since my dad gave me a camera back in 1982. I started getting interested in photography in 2004 after I bought my first camera for a trip across the pacific to Indonesia. From that point I was obsessed with taking pictures. I immersed myself in learning about photography through books, the internet and trial and error. My true passion in the beginning was landscape which I believed helped me with other aspects of photography, I love finding new ways to look at the world.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Aside from my bride-to-be, Garren was the person I was most excited to see on our wedding day. He blew us away at every step of the process. The photos are creative and absolutely stunning, and the previews came in so quickly that I'm somewhat convinced that Garren doesn't sleep. He was the vendor that made us feel most at ease, and at this point we're trying to come up with other life events that we can book him for. You could not be in better hands.”

Their communication throughout the planning process was present, proactive, and consistent - they always responded quickly and kept us on track with timelines and details. The venue itself is beautiful, unique, and captivating - the lush gardens and enchanting barn provided a gorgeous backdrop for our photos and ceremony. On the wedding day, they kept everything running smoothly and on time, while also being incredibly kind and ensuring the whole event went according to plan. I could not have pulled off such an incredible wedding without the venue's fantastic coordination and attention to detail - special shout out to Kim (the woman who owns it) and Loriann!

I highly recommend The Inn at the Round Barn Farm if you're looking for a venue that delivers excellent service in an utterly captivating setting!”
