PK and the Mighty Seven 
Rating: 5.0 (34 reviews)
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Newton Center, MA

PK and the Mighty Seven is a 9-piece powerhouse band built on a foundation of 10+ years performing weddings as a consistent group. Every horn blast, vocal harmony, and rhythm is sharpened by a decade of musical chemistry. We began with a shared love for high-energy soul and funk and an initial Jamiroquai tribute gig, but today we bring that same authentic energy to everything from timeless classics to modern hits. With world-class vocals and a 3-piece horn section, we deliver a wall-to-wall rallying cry to the dance floor that won't be ignored.

Awarded Best of Zola
PK and the Mighty Seven was THEE best band for our wedding. We had initially seen them play at porchfest and have gone back to see them each year since. They always draw a massive crowd and they kill it every time. For our wedding we considered getting a DJ for a second but boy are we glad we didn’t. PK brought the heat and they worth every penny. Leading up to the wedding, Matt was great to work with. We had a few calls prior to the wedding to plan songs, and we were able to give some definite YESs and NOs based on their extensive song list. They have great Motown, funk, and pop classics on their list, but they also did fantastic renditions of our pop-punk and ska requests. Matt was super responsive and coordinated with the venue about their logistics. During the wedding itself they brought fantastic energy, and know how to read a room. As (amateur) musicians, they even let us come up to play a song with them which was the most special moment and topped everything off. All around, 11 out of 10. Great to work with, professional, and absolutely rock!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had an amazing experience working with Jenn, owner of Symula Media Group. From our engagement shoot, to our wedding day, Jenn was professional, personable, easy to work with, and very communicative during the process. She also has a fun, cool personality that put us at ease(being in photos can feel SO AWKWARD) and had my photo-shy husband saying "wow, she was a great find!"(direct quote). On to the quality of her work: Our photos for our engagement shoot and wedding turned out beautifully. Jenn took in to consideration the types of shots we were looking for, and checked in with us to make sure our visions remained aligned. She is skilled at her craft and delivered magazine worthy shots -- from posed family photos, to capturing the most precious candid moments between us, our family, and our friends. Seriously, she was like a ninja the way she stealthily put herself exactly where the moments were happening. I cannot say enough good things about Jenn and her company Symula Media Group! You won't be disappointed if you book with her!

Liza Lavine Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (29 reviews)
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Serves Newton Center, MA

Half documentary. Half editorial. Fully yours. Hi, I’m Liza, a wedding photographer based in Boston, serving couples throughout New England and beyond. With a background in fashion photography, I blend candid storytelling with timeless, editorial-inspired imagery. My goal is to capture your day as it naturally unfolds while creating photographs that feel authentic, timeless, and true to you. Years from now, I want your photographs to do more than show you how your wedding looked—I want them to bring you back to exactly how it felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we booked with Liza we had absolutely the best experience. We tend to feel awkward in posed photos, but she made us feel so comfortable at our engagement session that we stopped worrying and trusted her to capture all of our favorite moments! In one hour she snapped more great photos of us than we have from all the previous years of our relationship. Liza's instinct and experience with timing, flow, and creative decisions made our entire wedding day easier even though day-of details can be overwhelming. Her style is both intimate and glamorous, and I especially requested to see all the silly and fun cocktail hour and dancefloor moments she could capture, which we truly treasure with all of our loved ones. Even our friends and family commented on how she was everywhere and getting all the angles - snapping us of course, as well as families, friends, and happy reunions. Liza was warm and friendly, supportive, and professional throughout, and if you are considering working with her for a wedding - or any event or reason - I cannot recommend her highly enough!

My bouquet and the ceremony arch were simply stunning works of art, with creative uses of texture and color that perfectly aligned to my vision.

I specialize in custom wedding cakes and party cakes! I'm 100% self-taught and have been decorating cakes since 2016! I have 2 kids and I love celebrating life's biggest events with cake is my passion!

Lizzie was so great to work with! She had so much flexibility on flavors and decorations so we could tailor the flavors and design to be what we wanted. Her tasting boxes were great. We could try a few every month and really take time to decide what we wanted. She was great with handling allergies too! The cupcakes were beautiful and Lizzie did a phenomenal job setting up our dessert table. We will definitely be coming back for future events!

I come from a fashion photography background and now happily spend my time in the beautifully slow world of weddings. After living abroad for many years, I’ve returned to the States. Travel has always been part of my life, whether for fashion or weddings, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

From our engagement photos to our wedding day, Jaffer had us feeling at ease and comfortable. Neither of us likes having our picture taken, but it was very comfortable working with him. Both of our families raved about how fun and easy Jaffer was to work with after the big day, and we loved all of our pictures. Genuinely the most easy-going, fun photographer who has interesting shots planned and will guide you to something that is comfortable and representative of you as a couple or family. Jaffer has incredible listening skills and is everything you would want in a wedding photographer. I would definitely work with him again for other photography needs, and would recommend him to anyone in a heartbeat!

Our daughter just celebrated her wedding this past weekend at the Kimpton Marlowe, and I can't imagine a more perfect experience! We visited quite a few venues that we loved, but once we found KM and Rachel, we knew we had found our place. I'm not sure where to begin! The planning process was never stressful thanks to Rachel's patience, professionalism and organizational skills. Our daughter lives out of state, and I can only imagine the insane amount of emails that flew back and forth between her and Rachel! She kept us all calm, and we were always confident that the day would be perfect because of her extraordinary efforts. The venue itself has everything a bridal party could want. It's in an accessible location for out of state visitors to explore Boston and Cambridge. The staff are all warm, friendly and eager to help with anything. The price is very reasonable; we had ruled out Boston/Cambridge because of our budget, but KM turned out to be right on target. There is convenient parking on site. We were offered a block of rooms in the hotel for an amazingly good price, so that our guests didn't have to worry about driving after a big party! The food was exceptional, from appetizers to dinner and even late night snacks of pizza, cookies and milk! The reception room was gorgeous and is very easy to work with because of the neutral colors. I think one of our favorite parts was that we had the entire second floor of the hotel to ourselves! The ceremony, cocktail hour, reception and even a room for the bride to retreat when she needed to change was all included. The younger guests danced until the very end, and the "older" parents and guests found a quiet spot to hang out in the lobby area outside of the reception hall, filled with comfortable sofas, chairs and tables. All who attended were happy with the many choices to party, relax and mingle. In my opinion, KM and Rachel are a still a hidden gem in the greater Boston area. I hope this review helps to get the word out that they are the place to go if you are looking for an affordable option with fabulous spaces, delicious food and most of all, an event planner who puts her heart and soul into everything she does. Thank you, KM and Rachel! 3

Ephemirus was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding flowers. Cailla was always quick, consistent, and thoughtful throughout the entire process. The quality of her work was creative, absolutely gorgeous, and exactly what we were looking for. She hand-delivered our beautiful bouquets and boutonnieres on the day of our wedding, and was always prompt in responding to any questions we had. We were thrilled with how everything turned out and would highly recommend Ephemirus to any couple planning their special day.
