Johnathan was absolutely amazing! This was my first time ever getting pictures taken especially for my big day and Johnathan was very patient. He set up different props and made sure I knew how to pose to get the perfect picture. Working with Johnathan at my wedding he did not feel like a photographer he honestly blended in with the family while keeping it professional. Me and my husband enjoyed working with Johnathan! We definitely recommend elegant production photography if your looking for a photographer

Covergirl plays the hits you love in an unforgettable style! While specializing in Funk/Dance/R&B, Covergirl also covers Classic Rock, Alternative, Rock, and Motown.

We cannot say enough about how much we loved Covergirl. They took so much time to sit with us and listen to our requests before the wedding and boy did they deliver. They played everything we asked for. They dressed up for our Super Mario theme and even learned new music for it. We had guests say they were the best wedding band they’ve ever heard. Absolutely incredible.

I’m Rob Skinner, a wedding photographer documenting couples in love throughout Connecticut, New England, and beyond.

I’ll record your first day of marriage beautifully with natural prompts and give you timeless wedding photos that will bring you joy for a lifetime.

Rob Skinner Photography was an ideal choice for our elopement at city hall. From the very beginning, Rob’s communication was prompt, clear, and reassuring, making the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. On the day itself, he arrived early and guided us in capturing natural, genuine moments. He helped us pose and move in ways that felt relaxed and authentic. The final photos are stunning, with a level of detail my husband and I truly value. Beyond the reasonable pricing for a one-hour elopement, what stood out most was how comfortable he made us feel throughout the entire experience. In just one hour, he captured over 1,000 photos, ensuring no special moment was missed. We’re so happy we chose Rob Skinner Photography and would highly recommend him to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
We got married at the Elm City Club in early November and only have amazing things to say about the experience! Every aspect of the wedding planning execution went super smoothly working with Sandra and her team, and our guests all loved the beauty of the venue, food, and atmosphere. Would absolutely recommend for anyone planning a small to medium sized wedding in Connecticut! Be sure to book way in advance though since it fills up very fast. Pros: -Venue is gorgeous and has a tremendous amount of personality. In our opinion this is the best place to have a wedding in Downtown New Haven, way better than doing a wedding in a hotel. It even has the option of coming pre-decorated if you'd like. -Sandra and her team are extremely professional responsive. Sandra has great attention to detail and helped us plan every bit of the wedding day which helped to put our minds at ease. The club staff all did an incredible job the day of and were very professional as well. -Food was outstanding. Chicken marsala and swordfish were cooked to perfection and the dessert table was a smash hit! (One of our guests gasped when she heard there was a dessert room) -Pricing is very reasonable, especially for Connecticut! There is a lot of flexibility with pricing tiers for food drink.

Welcome to Big Green Truck Pizza! For more than 20 years, we have delighted customers all over Connecticut with delicious pizza served in an attractive, fun atmosphere. Our specially outfitted trucks are genuine antiques equipped with wood-fired brick ovens, tables, and all the ingredients needed to bring a buffet of New Haven pizza to your backyard. We pride ourselves on the quality, variety, and convenience of our pizza, and specialize in bringing a fun, professional atmosphere to every occasion.

We had a great time working with the folks at Big Green Truck Pizza for our June 2025 wedding! We had about 90 guests with a variety of dietary needs, and the BGT team was very accommodating and helpful. It was very hot that day, but the team was so kind and understanding. Pizza was delicious, salad was fresh, and the gelato was such a treat (I particularly loved the blood orange one). Sad that Next Door (their brick & mortar restaurant) is closed, but so happy that people can still enjoy their lovely food. Thank you, BGT! Photo credit: Ken Yotsukura

This business is my heart and soul! It is a total dream to imagine my artwork in your home, making you feel beautiful and loved day after day. I am completely dedicated to designing an artful memorial to commemorate your happy marriage for your own life and generations to come.

What an amazing experience! Milo did a phenomenal job with a commissioned piece I wanted to gift to a recently married couple. The original photo I had was a blurry night shot, I provided the blurry photo and others of the couple and was able to create something that looks just like them! Milo’s style captured their essence and everything I could have hoped for! They asked a lot of questions and provided updates during the whole process, I would totally hire Milo again for a commissioned piece or any other artwork I may need in the future. Milo also went above and beyond and even found a cool frame for the picture to match perfectly before mailing it to the couple. And of course the married couple was very pleased capturing this moment!

Old World Pizza Truck 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
New Haven, CT
  • Caterer
  • Starts at $2,000

We started Old World Pizza Truck with our beloved old '42 Chevy, built and designed with a passion for entertaining and food in mind. Our fleet consists of four international diesel trucks, ready to serve both local and long range parties all across Connecticut, parts of New York, and Massachusetts. All trucks have basically the same equipment including powerful sound systems for those of you that like music at your affairs. They all are self sufficient with onboard generators, coolers, freezers and running water. No matter which truck is sent, the total experience is the same- great food, great music, lots of fun and unsurpassed service!

The amount of compliments I have received on the food at my wedding is too many to count! My only complaint is that I didn’t get to try more pizzas! We booked Old World Pizza Truck for dinner service and cocktail hour charcuterie and boy did they deliver. Even the skeptics (“pizza at your wedding?!”) came back to tell us what a phenomenal and unique meal it was. To quote one of my guests, “That pizza truck was genius. Did I tell you that the dessert pizza with peanut butter, jelly and bacon made my list of best things I’ve ever eaten that sounds completely disgusting?” Would book 10x over. Better than a 150 mediocre plated dinner by a mile.

My name is Johnny Perez and I'm the owner of "A Cinematic Wedding". I'm a professional photographer, independent filmmaker, and editor from New Haven, CT. With a focus on film production since 2013, I've gained extensive experience photographing and filming videos for weddings and events of all types but there has always been something special about filming a wedding.

The A Cinematic Wedding team was so great to work with for our wedding this September! I first reached out to Johnny because I wanted a videographer that could provide a full length wedding film, and he was one of the only videographers I found in the area that offered that option at a reasonable price! He captured everything we wanted from our day, and paid special attention to me and my husband to make sure we were comfortable during the many hours of pictures and prep work throughout the day. I highly recommend A Cinematic Wedding for your wedding day!

Modern Strings trio played at my wedding on June 28, 2024 - they were absolutely magnificent!! From the second I booked my venue, I knew the very first vendor I had to book was Modern Strings. I had followed Modern Strings for some time and knew it was the most important vendor for me to have! Modern Strings played for my ceremony as well as cocktail hour. They set the stage for an emotional, elegant ceremony; then followed by a beautiful upbeat cocktail hour. Our guests were floored by the modern music played on string instruments. Our wedding was everything we could have ever dreamed of and we have Modern Strings to thank for being such a special part of our day! P.S. Peep the emotion on my face walking down the aisle; the music really let us feel so in the moment of an incredibly special celebration!

The granddaughter of two gardeners, I have always felt a connection to the earth through the soil. When someone brings flowers into a room, something changes...an energy, an excitement! I love being able to bring that kind of beauty into peoples lives. I'm a small-town girl who enjoys anything that involves working with my hands from cooking to knitting. I'm a total animal lover (partial to dogs), a die-hard Grey's Anatomy fan, and I take my martinis extra dirty. When I'm not flowering in our studio in Milford, Connecticut, I'm mommin' to three amazing little boys (our dog Pippa and cat, Galaxy).

Awarded Best of Zola
The bouquets were absolutely beautiful and fit my vision exactly! All of the flowers and decor complemented the venue perfectly and was exactly what I was looking for. Kate was great to work with, from the initial communication and planning to making several adjustments to our plan over time to sending a preview of the bouquet. We were also able to visit her studio in person and rent candles which was a huge help. Overall working with Kate was so easy and stress free and she really has a knack for bringing a vision to life! Thank you!

From the moment we connected with Ms. Ellie, we felt at ease. She has a calming presence that made the whole process smooth and easy, which meant we could focus on the excitement rather than stress about the details. Her sweet and welcoming approach put both of us at ease, and she asked thoughtful questions that helped her understand what we wanted for our ceremony. Ms. Ellie delivered exactly what we hoped for on our wedding day—a beautiful, personal ceremony that felt true to us. It was a great experience overall, and we'd recommend her to everyone looking for an officiant who genuinely cares about making your day special.
