“We cannot recommend Sarah of Petal and Pine highly enough! Planning our Maine wedding from Colorado meant booking our venue and all vendors sight unseen, which naturally came with some anxiety. Sarah absolutely exceeded our expectations and went far beyond typical day-of coordination. Our venue was unfamiliar to her, so she took the initiative to stay there overnight with her husband about a month before our wedding - on her own time and dime - to fully understand the space and logistics. She made the trip from Portland (about an hour away) to meet with us at the venue, which was invaluable for our peace of mind. She also coordinated our rehearsal the day before, ensuring everyone knew exactly what to expect. She even allowed us to ship items to her home for storage prior to the wedding weekend and met us a few days before to ensure we picked everything up. On the wedding day itself, Sarah’s calming presence was exactly what we needed. While we were worried about all the moving parts and vendor coordination, she executed everything flawlessly. Her organizational skills were exceptional - she shared detailed schedules with all our vendors in advance and managed every detail with grace and confidence. Sarah made what could have been a stressful experience feel effortless. We would absolutely use her services again and recommend her to anyone planning a wedding in Maine, especially those coordinating from out of state!”

“Hiring CC was one of the best wedding decisions we made! From the beginning, Dan was super responsive and clear about the band’s style, availability and price. After booking, Dan was great about answering questions and keeping in touch about song requests, timeline and other important wedding items. If you’re looking for a band that you would want to dance and sing along with at a fun bar or party, on top of being extremely talented musicians, these are your people. They also understand weddings and are willing to take on fun challenges. They took the time to successfully pull off many requests such as: - My requests and timing for the ceremony music which included acoustic renditions of Harvest Moon, With a Little Help from my Friends and Here, There, and Everywhere. They also take care of the sound systems and mic set up for the ceremony. - An amazing live rendition of Touch Me by The Doors for our reception entrance - Another amazing live rendition of Come Sail Away by Styx for our first dance which transitioned into open dance floor for all guests - Helping me pull off a surprise outfit change/re entrance into the party which included allowing me to join the band to sing Just A Girl by No Doubt. My guests had nothing but great things to say about CC and applauded their crowd work and musical talent. I also highly recommend paying to add on the sax player. They were AMAZING and added the perfect touch. Overall, Champagne Casanova is completely worth it for your wedding. I would hire them again in a heartbeat!!”

Our first kiss was on the beach, under a star-filled sky, on my favorite island, only home to shells, bioluminescent creatures, and wild horses. Soon after, as two very young humans (21 and 23), we were married. As newlyweds we set off on an adventure, kayaking from Maine to Key West. On that trip, we realized how much we valued spending all our time together and being in charge of our schedule. This business is how we live out that dream.

“Bethany and Dan did such a wonderful job photographing our wedding. They have a distinct and unique style that really shined through when we were on the hunt for a photographer, and it translated beautifully to our photos. They were incredibly easy to work with leading up to and on the big day and very organized. We are BEYOND pleased with the results of both the portraits and more creative shots. Also, the dance floor content they captured was spectacular and got rave reviews from our guests. Highly recommend them!! Thank you Bethany & Dan!”

“Words cannot express how amazing Jazmine and her team are. We got married at my families Christmas Tree Farm (not a wedding venue) and worked closely with Jazmine the entire year leading up to the wedding. We turned a backyard wedding into a venue, and this is all thanks to Jazmine and her team. Every. Single. Detail. Was executed to perfection. You’ll spend a lot of time working with Jazmine leading up to the wedding day. Please trust her process as she knows exactly what needs to happen, what will work best, and how to take everything over so you don’t have to worry about anything.

Jazmine and her team are hardworking, caring, and dedicated to making your dream day come true. In my opinion, the most important thing about Jazmine is: she isn’t just another wedding vendor to keep tabs on. SHE is the one holding other vendors accountable. SHE is the emotional support on your big day. SHE is the calmness I needed when everything was coming together, but also a little stressful. I am so thankful for our vendor team, but especially Jazmine and her team who flawlessly executed our wedding day.”

“I felt so lucky to be able to work with Heather Hider for my wedding day. During wedding planning I was incredibly nervous about the make-up, because I have had almost exclusively not great experiences when having my makeup done and do not know how to do anything myself. As soon as we had our trial I was so at ease, and it was such an enormous relief going into the wedding day knowing I was in amazing hands. As a bride you have so many details to worry about and it was seriously invaluable that make-up was not one of them. I so appreciated everything Heather did to make me feel comfortable and confident. I could not even believe my makeup on the day of our wedding, and Heather had somehow made it even better than the trial (which I already loved!!). If you are a bride looking for any type of make-up, but especially brides looking for natural make-up, Heather is a dream!”

Hey! I'm Aimee, a film photographer based in Portland, Maine. I work primarily with film as a way of slowing down and paying attention. Film shapes my approach — intuitive and intentional — creating space for imperfection, inspiration and play. My work is grounded in documentation rather than direction. I follow what’s unfolding, offering gentle guidance only when needed, allowing the day to flow naturally.

“Aimee was the best to work with! We had a "non-traditional" wedding outside on a beautiful property that we wanted to take advantage of on our day. We had our ceremony under a beautiful maple tree and an extended cocktail hour on the lawn. Aimee was able to capture quiet, sweet moments and also get the "big shots" that every couple wants. But each photo feels so special and unique, all being shot on film. It has it's own raw quality that makes the photos feel like a relic. I can't wait to get them printed and framed!”

“On September 21st, 2024 my husband and I got married at Maine Studio Works with 143 guests. We got ready in “studio A” then had our ceremony, dinner and reception in ”studio B”. I don’t even know where to start with how amazing this venue was for our wedding. Great location with a blank canvas that allows you to make the space your own! The best part about using this venue for our wedding was working with the owners, Nora and Zack. Weddings can be stressful and overwhelming but Nora and Zack made it such a fun and positive experience. They went above and beyond as venue owners. They are both easy going, attentive, professional, accommodating and most of all creative when it came to helping us execute our vision in their space. Our favorite things about the space included; having studio A to get ready in, walking out of the big sliding door towards the aisle, having the garage door which opened up to outdoor space, and the tall ceilings which helped the room feel big and not too loud. Our guests were in love with the venue. To this day our guests comment on how cool the space was to get married in and how we were so lucky to work with such a great team. Nora and Zack are two of the most down to earth people I’ve ever met and highly recommend using their space for your next event!”

Caroline Captures Media

Portland, ME
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,750

We’re Caroline and Nermin, the husband-and-wife team behind Caroline Captures Media. Our story began in Bar Harbor, where we first met while working along the coast. It didn’t take long for Maine’s landscapes, communities, and coastal beauty to become a place we deeply connected with and eventually came to call home. Nermin grew up in Montenegro along the Adriatic Sea, so Maine’s rugged shoreline and maritime culture felt immediately familiar. Our shared connection to coastal places and the outdoors has shaped not only our lives, but also the way we see and document weddings.

“We loved having Caroline and Nermin as our photographers. They took both our engagement and wedding photos. Caroline and Nermin were great with any questions we had. They broke down the timeline for the wedding in a way that made us feel confident going into the day. They also gave us a sneak peak of the wedding pictures by the time we were eating breakfast the next day! The pictures are beautiful and we'll forever treasure all of the special moments they captured.”

“We had our wedding at Bissell Brothers Brewing Co. and it was the perfect day all around. From our first conversation, the team was responsive and easy to work with, answering all our questions and making sure we felt heard every step of the way. The space has this festive, airy vibe that made the whole celebration feel fun and relaxed, and our out-of-state guests couldn't stop talking about how great the venue was.
