Hello, My Name is Jurgen van der Pluijm WEDDING, FASHION, LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER and Artist I grew up in a multicultural family and have been exposed to two things since a young age - European Culture and African Culture As a seasoned photographer and artist, my work reflects a thoughtful exploration of the world around me.

Through the lens of a camera, I strive to capture the essence of emotions, the beauty of nature, and the stories that lie within the ordinary.

From the moment we met Jay, we knew he was the perfect photographer for our wedding. His communication style is very concise - he clearly knows how he wants each shot to look before even raising his camera. Jay has a truly artistic and creative style, and he uses the environment as a stage to capture stunning, one-of-a-kind images. Throughout the day, he continually praised me for my posing and told me what beautiful pictures I was taking. Jay went the extra mile to make me feel confident and beautiful in front of the camera. Compared to other photographers we researched, Jay's prices are very reasonable, and the quality of his work is phenomenal. He is also lighthearted and fun to be around, which made the entire photography experience a pleasure. We are thrilled with the beautiful memories Jay captured of our special day.

(Please contact us through our website to get in touch for your special day)

Where do I even begin? My husband and I got married in August of this year and from the moment we talked with Destiny and Mac, we knew we needed them to be a part of our day. We instantly connected as they are so personable, energetic, and compassionate about their work. We had the chance to not only work with them for our wedding but they also shot our ”save the date” session as well. We had so much fun with them and they made us feel so comfortable. Not only are they incredible at what they do, but they are great people and we kept saying we gained two great friends from this. We couldn’t be happier with our video as it captures everything from our day in a unique style. Their talent is truly unmatched. Thank you Mac and Destiny!!

Hi, I'm Theresa, a wedding photographer inspired by nature's beauty and the stories we all hope to pass down. Along with my amazing team of photographers (plus a videographer!), our work emphasizes natural prompts and real emotions to create incredible imagery that captures the vibrant energy of wedding celebrations. We’re set apart by the fact that we know how to maximize shotlists so our couples can skip the photo marathons and enjoy their own cocktail hour (which is rare, I might add).

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Teresa and her team was the easiest and best decision we made when wedding planning. She was wonderful to work with and from our first Zoom call together I just knew she understood our vision. I am just blown away with how she, Katherine, and Olivia were able to capture so many special moments with our people. She and her team pivoted amazingly well through changing plans due to weather and other minor challenges through out the day. Even with a rainy, windy day we had the best wedding pictures I’ve ever seen! Each photo shows all of the love that was in the room during our wedding and I am so grateful to be able to relive our day forever thanks to Teresa and her team.

As a bride with very little vision, Lisa guided us every step of the way and made sure we had everything needed to pull off an A wedding.

She has a knack for simplifying the many decisions that need to be made and making the preparation fun and creative.

  • Florist
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Middletown, CT

BLOOM. Creative Floral & Events is a boutique floral and event design studio located in Northeast, CT, serving counties in Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island. We create seasonal, garden-inspired floral arrangements, using only the freshest flowers and unique blooms and ingredients responsibly sourced from local flower farmers and gardens from all over the world. Drawing inspiration from your ideas, your unique style, and the venue you have chosen, we work closely with you and the team of professionals you have hired to implement your special day to help you achieve, big and small, the wedding of your dreams.

Tammie made our wedding a dream. We love flowers and knew we wanted them to be a showstopper during our big day, and from our very first meeting we knew that Tammie would create organic coastal garden magic for us. After describing our likes and dislikes and reviewing a moodboard with Tammie, she came back with a visual proposal that completely understood the vision we had, and the actual execution was even better than we could have expected. From my beautiful bouquet, to the ceremony arrangements, and the stunner of a floral chandelier, everything was absolutely perfect. However, nothing could really top the reception tables — it was like my Pinterest board come to life. The organic feeling growing arrangements, bud vases, ikebanas, and tapers that complimented our tablecloths were *chefs kiss*. I’m still not over everything! To top it all off, Tammie is so kind, warm, and lovely — she made dreaming up flowers one of the best and most enjoyable parts of this process. Thank you for everything, Tammie!

Farm Couture Flowers

  • Florist
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Middletown, CT

Farm Couture Flowers is the design studio at Muddy Feet Flower Farm. I grow over 100 varieties of cut flowers from April through November and incorporate them into lush garden-style arrangements and bouquets.

Where to begin? Kristin is an artist. In the age of insane wedding Pinterest boards and over-planning every detail, we gladly handed the floral design and aesthetics over to Kristin. She uses her own flowers from her farm, so she's both local and sustainable, and if you're interested in supporting a small, woman-owned business, this is the way to go. We trusted her direction and expertise and it was the best decision we could have made. When we walked into our venue on the day-of, we were both floored. It was so much better than I could have even imagined; we received so many sincere compliments from guests. Our wedding photographer said he thought they were the best wedding flowers he'd seen. The floral design was original, organic, and creative, and the greenery was gorgeous. If you choose Kristin as your florist, trust her to lead the way. It'll be better than anything you could have imagined!

I live in East Hampton, Connecticut with my beautiful wife (Meg), our two dogs (Tucker & Diamond), and cat (Grace).

Rose Gold Visual - Videography

  • Videographer

  • Starts at $6,300
  • Serves Middletown, CT

When i was young, my dream was to be a filmmaker and musician. The art of visual storytelling was captivating to me. When the right image, message, and music collide, it’s pure magic. After high school i moved across the country to pursue a music career. 4 albums, 13 countries, and 100’s of shows later i found myself wanting to be behind the camera, rather than in front. Filmmaking gave me the chance to express myself, while capturing once in a lifetime moments. I had once again fallen in love with storytelling. It’s never JUST a photo or video clip. It’s real people, real emotion, seen through a perspective that otherwise wouldn’t exist.

Jenny and Josh were everything we could dream of and then more! From the very first conversation, Jenny made me feel so comfortable. They are so professional and so talented. Their response time is fast and they answered every question I had. Our engagement photos and wedding photos are so beautiful. They take their time and make sure every single detail is perfect. Our wedding video absolute blew us away. Everyone we showed said they had never seen a wedding video quite like this before. They are, without a doubt, worth the investment.

Yumiko at Hana Floral Design was one of the first vendors I really clicked with during my wedding planning experience, and the rest was history! I am so glad I found her early in the planning process. Her ability to understand and execute my tropical-inspired wedding vision gave me full confidence that my wedding would be success. Throughout the process, Yumiko easily adapted to new ideas, took feedback in stride, offered helpful (really helpful) ideas, and seamlessly communicated with my other vendors to turn my vision into a reality. She had awesome connections (helped to find my amazing photographer) and she went above and beyond to turn our blank canvas of a tent and transform it into a tropical, island chic space. I felt so incredibly lucky to work with her, and throughout called her the VIP of my wedding day. She is amazing, truly the best!!!!!

Being able to walk across the street in between tasks was awesome and there was plenty of space for everyone. At the start of our search for a venue, we felt very discouraged by the hefty price tags and preferred vendor lists. Maple Lane was incredibly affordable for our budget- even including the accommodations for our bridal party.

Born in New Haven, we’ve had the incredible experience of living around the country including Alaska, Oregon and Colorado. My perfect day is sitting outside in the autumn air drinking espresso while listening to a podcast or reading The Secret, again. The show Outlander is a guilty pleasure though Brian and I are always quoting New Girl and Bob’s Burgers. I love planning adventures, thrillers, football Sundays, wholesome conversation, cozy vibes and markets.

I'm a 28-year-old photographer based out of South Eastern, Connecticut! I got into photography in 2019 and have been loving every second of it! When I'm not capturing memories, you can find me on some adventure with my boyfriend, or at home with our 2 Kittybrats (Loki & Cruise.. Tom Cruise)!

Hayley was the first vendor we booked for our day. We couldn't have imagined choosing anyone else to capture these moments. Hayley was so communicative and professional leading up to and during the wedding. She was flexible in resting a package that worked for us and even took time to give me an extra call to review my timeline and photo lists just to give me reassurance. Our wedding party thought she was so fun to be around and so clear with what she needed from all of us. Our gallery is absolutely beyond words stunning. We cannot stop looking at it. She gave us so so many photos and every single one is absolutely breathtaking. I recommend her to everyone I know!! Thank you, Hayley!

We worked with Jay to provide ceremony music for my wedding on October 4th, and couldn’t be happier to have had him part of our day. Growing up, my dad played a bit of acoustic guitar, so it’s always been a special instrument to me. When discussing what songs I wanted for the ceremony, Jay was completely open to learning the songs I had requested, ensuring I could have the exact vision I desired for the ceremony. He was excellent to communicate with, prompt, courteous, and not to mention talented! Thank you so much, Jay for being a special addition to our day. I highly recommend hiring him for your wedding!
