Modern Strings was a joy to work with for our wedding. Their communication was consistently professional, kind, and fast throughout the planning process, which we greatly appreciated during the stresses of wedding planning. On our big day, the weather did not cooperate and we had to quickly change plans, but Modern Strings immediately adapted and set up to perform. Despite the last minute changes, they were passionate, professional musicians who delivered a performance well worth the cost. The entire ensemble brought immense talent and kindness that uplifted our whole event. We cannot recommend Modern Strings highly enough - they brought passion and professionalism that absolutely made our wedding day special, even when things went wrong. Their flexibility and musicality were invaluable. We felt so lucky to work with this talented, kind group of musicians for our wedding.

Hi there! My name is Chris Randall. I'm a wedding photographer based in New Haven, Connecticut. I've been photographing weddings for twelve years and have photographed over 100 weddings. I absolutely love capturing the magic that exists between two people on the biggest day of their lives! It’s a responsibility that I don’t take lightly and I see it as an honor.

Chris took photos of our wedding and we can't say enough great things about him. As you can tell from his website, the quality of the pictures he takes is outstanding. We loved how his pictures captured the essence of moments without resorting to excessive editing or effects. What you can't tell from his website is that Chris is great and easy to work with. He was responsive, suggested great locations for a photo shoot, adapted plans to stay on schedule, and was an overall calming presence. We also loved that Chris gave us full rights to our photos, meaning that we don't have to pay to download or print them. Overall very highly recommended!

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 an incredible experience with Big Green Truck Pizza at our Wedding Welcome Event! Renting their pizza truck was one of the best decisions we made. The entire process was smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. The team from Big Green Truck Pizza was professional, friendly, and exceptionally accommodating. They arrived on time and set up efficiently, bringing their signature charm and enthusiasm that immediately engaged our guests. The smell of their delicious pizzas filled the air, setting the perfect tone for a fun and relaxed event. The variety of pizzas they offered was fantastic, with something to please every palate. Each slice was made with high-quality ingredients and cooked to perfection—crispy crusts, flavorful toppings, and mouthwatering cheese. The salad and gelato included made it a no brainer for us! We were looking forward to espresso and cappuccino but I don’t think they brought it to our event. But no one noticed because our guests couldn’t stop raving about how amazing the food was! They even brought gluten free crusts and made them dairy free for my MIL. The unique experience of having a pizza truck added a fun, interactive element to our event that everyone enjoyed. Big Green Truck Pizza truly elevated our welcome event, and we couldn’t be happier with their service. A huge thank you to the team for helping us kick off our wedding weekend celebrations!

This stunning Connecticut location is ideal for weddings, galas, birthdays, or any reason to celebrate. Anthony’s Ocean View makes it all possible by working with our experienced event team. From parties to grand affairs, virtually any group and occasion can be seamlessly accommodated!

I had my wedding at Anthony’s Ocean View. It was amazing and well worth every penny. Brian and Marcello are the best! I will say, the only negative aspect is that I was under the impression that only 1 wedding happened at a time - there was another wedding happening right next to us. This impacted our music, our photos and my speech was cut off because the other weddings music was so loud that the floor vibrated and I had to ask staff to do something. Other than that, the venue was beautiful, so accommodating, and food was absolutely fantastic. Would recommend Anthony’s to anyone.

Our wedding day was everything and way better than was imagined and our florals from Fountainhead were breathtaking! I gave Kate some inspo pictures and what actually arrived that morning, was better than imagined! Many of our pictures take place in front of barrels and the colors from the bouquet just elevates everything! All of our guests commented on how amazing and unique our florals were. I can't thank the team enough for bringing my vision for my wedding to life!

I am a Connecticut-based wedding and portrait photographer obsessed with candid moments, real emotion, and the connections between human beings. I strive to capture life as we actually live it: full of beauty and roughness, joy and struggle, extravagance and simplicity. When I photograph you, I’m not thinking about getting likes on social media. I’m thinking about what will make your heart grow three times its size. I’m thinking about what will make you ugly-cry, looking back. I’m thinking about you seeing how awesome and truly loved you are.

Awarded Best of Zola
Cate is an absolute gem of a photographer and of a human! Our wedding photos came out absolutely stunning! The entire process was very easy-- we had a few different planning calls and all payments were all online. She was incredibly responsive throughout the whole process. Most of all, Cate helped to make us feel absolutely at ease and comfortable on our wedding day. It's easy to feel out of place as an LGBTQ couple navigating the wedding industry, but she made everything feel natural and effortless. So so glad we went with her. Would recommend her to any couple.

Makeup has always been a passion of mine, ever since I was little you could find me doing my mom, little sister, and grandma's hair and makeup. I always wanted a career in the industry but never thought it was attainable. Until I reached a point in my life where I decided to take a leap of faith pack my bags and drive down to Georgia where my older sister (a master MUA who owns her own agency) lives.

Aleks and her team are so professional and easy to work with. Aleks was helpful during and after the makeup trial we had. She was very supportive when my skin was having issues and was able to provide very helpful advice when I reached out to her about it. She asked me questions about my skin care and was able to recommend some things to try to sort out my skin issues before the big day. The day of the wedding, my vision was brought to life from my hair to my makeup! My skin was glowing! And she made sure my bridesmaids loved their looks too! 10/10 would recommend!

We are absolutely thrilled with the floral arrangements from Rebel Rose for our wedding! From the initial consultation to the final setup, the entire experience was exceptional. Tracy has an incredible eye for design and truly understood our coastal meets Bridgerton vision. She created stunning bouquets, centerpieces, and alter arrangements that perfectly complemented our wedding theme and added a touch of elegance to every detail. The flowers were not only beautiful but also fresh and vibrant, making a lasting impression on our guests. What really stood out was her attentiveness and dedication to bringing our ideas to life. I had collected more vases than I had originally planned on and Tracy ran with it. She made vignettes of large vases and bud vases, taking a fresh spin on things by using one flower type per vase. Her suggestions turned out even better than I imagined. Tracy’s professionalism and passion for her craft was evident throughout the process. The florals were one of the highlights of our wedding day, and we are so grateful to Tracy for her exceptional work.

We hired Cork & Craft for our wedding and I'm really happy I choose them! Initially when I started to look for a vendor I was disappointed by the beer selection (the typical offerings were miller, coors, and bud) but I really prefer craft beer. Cork & Craft was able to procure Thimble Island beer for my wedding and I was thrilled! They also had great suggestions for wine and a passionfruit margarita mix that my guests really loved. I liked that the truck was all electric so you couldn't hear a motor running during the ceremony and throughout the night. It rained during my wedding and I was happy to see that while I was getting ready (dress, hair, makeup, etc.) they worked with my venue to be covered by two pop-ups. I'm so glad that everything was taken care of - it really relieved a lot of stress. Tara is extremely friendly, professional, and a great communicator. If I was planning my wedding again I would definitely hire her!

WoodWinds is one of the most sought after Connecticut wedding venues for wedding receptions, banquets, corporate events or any special occasion, in the Tri-State area. A wedding in our impressive European Country Manor will reflect your personal vision. Imagine a magical experience, enhanced by a unique ceremony and reception on the beautiful grounds of WoodWinds. Envision standing on a grand staircase under the twinkle of Austrian Crystal chandeliers, taking pictures in a magnificent garden and dancing the night away on a marble dance floor.

The venue had a few hiccups, but overall we had a lovely reception there. The outdoor space was the highlight - truly gorgeous for photos. Communication on coordination was a bit spotty at times, but the maître d', Sergio, was a god send and stepped in to ensure things flowed smoothly. The food was phenomenal, as well! So many of our guests shared it was the best wedding food they’d ever had. We did have both our bridal attendants provided by the venue disappear on us shortly after we arrived, which was inconvenient since we would have paid for our own attendants if we knew that would be the case. While parts of the indoor space is dated, it worked out beautifully with some creative decor. When weighing everything in, the Woodwinds was a spectacular venue!

Designed and built to capture unsurpassed lake views from every seat, The Lake House delivers the finest service and cutting-edge cuisine to satisfy the most discerning of palates.

Awarded Best of Zola
We got married at The Lake House on Saturday, June 10, 2023 and were VERY happy with our choice of venue! Our guests did not stop talking about how pretty the lake and foliage surrounding it were, plus the fountain in the lake (which was newly added just before our wedding). We held our ceremony outdoors in front of the willow tree and our cocktail hour split between the parlor room and the lakefront, and all our outdoor photos were stunning. One of the main reasons we picked The Lake House was because we didn’t have to decide until day-of where on the property we wanted our ceremony to be, so we were able to make a last minute call based on the weather. We lucked out on getting to go with the outdoor option, but unfortunately the way our ceremony was set up, all the photos of us walking down the aisle have cars in the parking lot in the background (there were no cars in the parking lot when we did our tour, so we didn’t even think about this in advance). This is just a note for your photographer, or possibly a reason to angle the chairs differently than we did. A solvable issue! The Lake House’s team was very easy to work with leading up to our event and really helped us get excited about the day. They were prompt in responding to our questions, flexible with requests (such as signature drinks, adjusting the start time of our ceremony after booking, and allowing us to bring in almost any decor we wanted), and clearly experienced in wedding planning/execution. Two additional things that made The Lake House stand out to us were the fact that they had 2 bridal suites, which is hard to find but important for us as an LGTBQ couple with 2 brides, and a really high-quality speaker system that our DJ was able to plug into (for a fee). One challenge we had was that despite providing an extremely detailed map of where we wanted our decor set up and going over it during an in-person meeting with the coordinators just 2 days before our wedding when we dropped it all off, the decor was not set up as we asked it to be when we arrived day-of. We were only allowed to arrive 1.5 hours in advance of our ceremony, so this was stressful, since we and our immediate family members had to run around adjusting things before guests arrived. At the end of the night, the staff did not provide much help packing things up either. We would recommend hiring a day-of coordinator rather than just relying on their staff, specifically for setup and breakdown. The only other complaint we had was that dinner service was incredibly slow. Everyone at a given table was served at the same time, but half of the room was finished with their meals before the other half was served. This caused our post-dinner activities to be extremely delayed, and we ended up paying our photographer, videographer, and DJ extra cash on the spot to stay longer than they had signed up for. The food was good, though, and dessert was even better! We added the adult ice cream sundae bar as a second dessert option, and it was a big hit. One last thing of note is that the venue is entirely handicap accessible and has plenty of parking, two things that were important to us and not true of all the other venues we considered. Overall, we would highly recommend The Lake House as a wedding venue with some proactive planning around the concerns we listed above. We had an incredible day!

Through my clients I have had the pleasure of watching many love stories come to fruition, capturing their most special day. Wedding photography is not just a job, it’s a true passion that I do because I love it. The long wedding days, the planning - I cherish every moment of it!

Ephe was the best photographer ever. I was one of the last people in my friend group to get married and I’ve seen some photography disasters happen the day of. Ephe had none of that and all of my friends loved her and her work ethic. She is very punctual and organized. She understood the vibe that I was going for and she had my sneak peeks and all of my wedding pictures edited super quick! I wish I lived closer to Ephe so I could hire her for all of my photography needs.

Awarded Best of Zola
After scouring Instagram for someone who’s hair and makeup style matched our simple yet elegant aesthetic, we booked Dana for our June 2023 wedding. Dana did hair and makeup for both of us (two brides) as well as hair for my wife’s mother. Dana particularly excelled at listening to our visions and bringing them to life. During our trials (which we do recommend), we brought in pictures of hairstyles for inspiration, and Dana was able to easily recreate them knowing how exactly to work with our individual hair texture and style. Also, neither of us wear much makeup (I don’t wear any), and Dana was able to achieve the “natural” or “soft-glam” look very well, which was what we both wanted. We felt that most other makeup artists we looked at went too far even with the “soft-glam” style. Dana was perhaps the most organized of all the vendors we worked with for our wedding. During each of our trials, she took incredibly detailed notes, brought them with her the day of our wedding, and followed them exactly. While it’s impossible to recreate your trial look 100% perfectly, what Dana did was closer than we ever expected. In addition, she helped us craft the perfect getting ready schedule for the morning of our wedding, and stuck to it, so we didn’t feel stressed or rushed and actually enjoyed the process! While we were a small “bridal party” and worked with only Dana herself, something Dana mentioned is that she never brings in other hair or makeup artists unless she trusts them and their work completely. That instilled confidence in us that her quality standard was really high, and her performance confirmed that. Her confidence made us confident! Our hair and makeup looked almost perfect at the end of the day after an outdoor ceremony in the wind and 4 hours of running around and dancing. We were super impressed. We have absolutely no reservations in recommending Dana for your wedding day. Make sure you follow her instructions on how to prep your face/hair and design the getting ready schedule for your wedding and you’ll have a great time!

I absolutely love being part of one of the most important days of my clients' lives! It is such a memorable event that I'm always honored to be part of. Are you getting married? Whether you're looking for polished look or textured, I'm here to take care of you and bring your vision to life!

I will 100% be going to her again! Nina did such a beautiful job on my hair. I have naturally very straight, thick, and silky hair which can be difficult to work with. My hair often does not hold a curl or like to stay in place but she did an amazing job. My hair stayed throughout the whole night and was absolutely beautiful. She did exactly what I had asked for and could not have been happier with the results.

Stephanie Anestis Photography

  • Serves New Haven, CT

Hi, I'm Stephanie! I specialize in backyard weddings and small celebrations. I connect best with couples who might include their dog in the ceremony, make their day uniquely theirs, and don't sweat the small stuff. A jar of wildflowers is as interesting to me as a perfectly crafted orchid bouquet. I love documenting the small moments and details, and I see beauty everywhere on a wedding day. My face always hurts from smiling so much on my drive home! I know how to take charge for posed portraits (and always do some!) but I prefer to capture moments as they happen. I've been a photographer full-time for over fifteen years.

Awarded Best of Zola
Stephanie is an unbelievably talented photographer! Stephanie had an amazing ability to capture both the posed and candid moments of our wedding. Her work is absolutely stunning and she is a joy to work with. We cherish our wedding photos so much and could not be happier with the memories of our special day. Following our wedding, we even had Stephanie come back to capture newborn photos! We highly recommend Stephanie to anyone that is looking for a great wedding photographer.

We recommend 1000%! Our engagement and wedding photos were amazing! The video was so well thought out, and really captured the essence of our love and celebration. Trevaughn listened and gave us direction. We gave him creative license and it really shined. I am amazed at the pictures he was able to get because you barely knew he and his assistant were there! He showed up on time and was very professional.
