“We had an absolutely incredible experience working with this Carmela Marie. We set up a tasting to try the foods we were envisioning for our wedding, and everything was amazing from the very beginning. At the tasting, the food exceeded our expectations and gave us so much confidence going into the big day. Janalynne was extremely thorough, helpful, and clearly very experienced. Leading up to the wedding, she asked all the right questions and made the entire planning process easy and organized. She was so easy to work with, as was the chef, and the entire staff was kind, professional, and attentive. I also had dietary restrictions (dairy-free, gluten free, nut free), and they were very accommodating and made sure I had delicious options without ever feeling limited or left out. On the wedding day, the food was absolutely delicious. We had numerous guests come up to us saying it was some of the best wedding food they’ve ever had. The cocktail hour food was a huge hit, especially the cocktail meatballs—everyone raved about them. From a bride’s perspective, everything felt completely seamless. The team worked quickly and efficiently behind the scenes, keeping everything clean and running smoothly without us ever having to think about it. We are so grateful for how easy and perfect they made the experience! Definitely use them!!!”

“The Stately Rose Beauty Studio was absolutely amazing to work with for my wedding day. From the very first consultation, they were prompt, proactive, and made me feel at ease. Their communication was top-notch, and they went above and beyond to ensure my hair and makeup were perfect. Despite the incredibly windy conditions that forced us to move cocktail hour inside, my hair and makeup stayed flawless through all the outdoor photos and the rest of the reception. I received so many compliments on my hair and make up, even days later. My mother-in-law even shed a few happy tears at how beautiful her make up looked. The team at Stately Rose has such great personalities - they were efficient, skilled, and made the entire process so easy. I cannot recommend them highly enough for any bride looking for an amazing beauty team for their special day.”

Hi! My name is Matt and I am the owner and head DJ of Style Points DJs. I began DJing in 2016 with my friend Jerry after discovering a mutual love for electronic dance music from the likes of Zedd, Martin Garrix, and Hardwell. I've found an overwhelming passion in DJing and event coordinating, so much so that I've worked tirelessly to do it full-time since 2021. I believe that the DJ is the cornerstone of wedding vendors and I do everything in my power to make sure that I can make the vision of your wedding into a reality.

“DJ Style Points was incredible to work with and played a huge role in making our wedding night a massive success. Our guest list spanned multiple generations, so we really needed someone who knew how to read the room and keep everyone engaged. Matt understood this perfectly—he had the dance floor packed all night and blended the music seamlessly. Any concerns we had regarding song lengths or flow, he was already ahead of it. He uses a custom planning form that was incredibly thorough, which made it so easy for us to help structure our timeline and music preferences. It also didn't go unnoticed by our other vendors; they were all very complimentary of how well he managed the energy throughout the night. If you want a DJ who is organized, professional, and a true master at keeping the party going, look no further!”

She is a top notch professional, incredibly sweet, thoughtful and went above and beyond to make our day magical. Everyone kept telling me how wonderful Bianca and Dan were and how beautiful the bar trailer was. Not only was the trailer gorgeous at the venue, she went as far as to have custom napkins and drink stirrers made for us. It was such a small, sweet surprise and as the bride- there weren’t many surprises for me as I was involved in all the planning so that little touch meant so much. I could not recommend Bevida & Company more for any event!! I truly can not express how incredible Bianca made the experience from start to finish. Thank you Bianca & Dan!!

Wedding photographs you'll return to for fifty years. The moments you were too happy to notice, the portraits you'll frame, the room exactly as it was designed, made quietly by someone already standing where the moment is about to happen. I'm Shukhrat, based in Connecticut and photographing weddings wherever you're celebrating: Newport and the Rhode Island coast, Boston, the Berkshires, the Catskills, the Connecticut shoreline, and further afield. Every wedding has two photographers and an assistant. Digital, 35mm film and licensed aerial photography from one team, and your first gallery, around 500 finished photographs, within a week.

“Shukhrat Kamalov was a standout HIT. Our guests felt like absolute celebs! We didn't want the standard photobooth as it can come off a little too cheesy for my tastes. And since we were asking all of our guests to come dressed in their best, we decided it was only appropriate they also get their own designated photographer. Shukhrat took his time with each of our guest's photo sessions, directing them and taking multiple shots until our guests loved what he captured. AND he printed them out so our guests had something to bring home. All of our guests told us that these photos would be framed in their home . THEY WERE THAT GOOD.”

Hi, I’m Stephanie, the owner of Dark Horse Photography in Connecticut. I’m also a full-time nurse, so helping people feel comfortable comes naturally to me. For weddings, I team up with Woody of Images by Woody. We bring different perspectives and a shared love for capturing connection, personality, and the moments that unfold naturally. My style is true to color with an earthy, moody feel, and I love pairing that look with the real laughter and emotion that make your photos personal. You don’t need to know how to pose—we’ll guide you, laugh right along with you, and make sure your photos feel like you.

“Stephanie does such an amazing job and captures your special moments with a creative eye! I was so impressed by the images. She’s a storyteller with her work. Highly recommend Stephanie. She’s very personable, professional, and just the right person.”

We're Ashley and James, nature—inspired storytellers and creative partners who are here to capture your most precious moments. As a husband-and-wife team, we understand the importance of connection. We take the time to get to know you so that your wedding film reflects your unique journey together. We’re drawn to the beauty of those candid moments—the joyful smiles, heartfelt tears, and loving embraces—and we transform them into cinematic treasures that you and your loved ones will cherish for generations.

“Treefilms is a stellar photography and videography company! After our venue, they were the second vendor we booked as photography and videography was very important to us. Ashley was responsive and kind from the beginning! She was open to our ideas in regard to location and then made it look even better in the photo video! We felt so comfortable during that shoot and at our wedding in front of the camera with them. They gave us enough direction that it was easy to know what to do, but did not result in stiff or overly posed pictures. The candid shots that they captured throughout the wedding day are photos we will cherish; they were able to capture all the emotions so perfectly. The team worked seamlessly with all the other vendors, they truly know what they’re doing! (Shoutout to Ashley for doing up the buttons on my dress!) Our wedding video is a work of art, I don’t think it’s comparable to the standard videos produced by other vendors. Treefilms is the vendor we recommend most to friends and family, and we look forward to working with them again in the future!”

“Dave was GREAT!! He gave us a personalized ceremony catered to our needs. We met up with him months before the wedding, and he helped us understand what the ceremony would look like. He provided us with multiple templates to choose from, allowing us to customize our ceremony. On the day of the wedding, he spoke clearly and delivered the ceremony with warmth and professionalism. We received many compliments from our guests on how personal and heartfelt the ceremony was. We are so grateful to him for making our day memorable.”

“As a wedding photographer, I work with a wide range of planners, but Tanya from Bookmarked Weddings truly stands out. Our most recent wedding together was a 2025 New Year’s Eve wedding, and it was clear from the start that this wasn’t just another event—it was a fully immersive experience, thanks in large part to Tanya’s vision and execution. The day was filled with intricate details: a balldrop at midnight filled with bubbles, an elegant champagne tower, and a timeline packed with special moments and intentional design. Tanya handled it all with a calm, confident presence and exceptional attention to detail. She built a full-day timeline that was both comprehensive AND realistic—which meant everything ran smoothly, and I was able to capture the day naturally without unnecessary stress or delays. Tanya’s coordination behind the scenes allowed the couple to stay present and enjoy every moment while ensuring that vendors like myself had exactly what we needed to do our jobs well. Her thoughtful approach and clear communication made a huge difference throughout the day. The energy of a New Year’s Eve wedding is already electric, but Tanya elevated it with a sense of elegance, organization, and creativity that made the whole celebration feel effortless and magical. If you're looking for a planner who can manage complex, high-energy events with grace, precision, and style, Tanya from Bookmarked Weddings is it. Every time I know we are going to work together, I fist pump the air in celebration because it will be FLAWLESS! — Cait Fletcher Cait Fletcher Photography”
