Awarded Best of Zola
As the mother of the bride, this was my first time helping to plan a wedding, and a friend suggested I hire a day-of coordinator. Mia’s company came highly recommended by the Hyatt Regency Greenwich, and from the moment we spoke with her, we knew she was the perfect fit. I originally thought a day-of coordinator only stepped in on the wedding day—but Mia guided us well before that. She coordinated with vendors, built a detailed timeline, organized all of our personal items, and answered every question with professionalism, clarity, and calm. As the big day approached, she became a true source of strength and reassurance. On the wedding day, she was everywhere at once—easily logging 18,000 steps—making sure every detail was set up beautifully and everything ran exactly on time. She worked seamlessly with our contact at the Hyatt, and when the night was over, all our belongings were perfectly packed and ready to take home. I have nothing but admiration for this go-getter, this steady hand, this absolute superwoman. Mia made my daughter’s wedding day flawless, and I am endlessly grateful.

Its location in stunning, historic, downtown Ridgefield and the museum's striking architecture made it an easy choice. That coupled with how it helped convey our love and appreciation for art, truly thrilled us. The staff there could not have been easier to work with and helped make the event perfect.

Veronica is a super talented photographer and so easy to work with! We were a covid wedding who unfortunately had to cancel our 2020 celebrations and reschedule on a whim to 2021. Veronica honored the original contract and helped us seamlessly transition to the new date, which brought simplicity to an otherwise stressful situation. Her approach as a photographer is hilariously involved, she's not just the person behind the camera but also the best hype woman. She has us feeling so comfortable and having a great time through out the photos. 10/10 will call Veronica back for future events. Hire her!! You'll be so glad you did!!

We loved having our wedding at The Keeler Tavern! It was cozy, warm and intimate and the beautiful antique ambiance was just what we were looking for. Combined with the comparatively affordable price point for the area, choosing Keeler Tavern for our wedding was easy and we don’t regret it. We also appreciated the unique and affordable option to hire a Keeler Tavern Museum docent to give mini museum tours during our cocktail hour. (Our guests loved it!) Mary Ann (the point person at Keeler Tavern) was easy to work with and helped to answer all of our questions. It rained on our wedding day so we didn’t get to use the garden space for our ceremony as originally planned, but the patio tent was still a beautiful setting for the ceremony and the reception hall with all of its windows was lovely and cozy during the rainstorm. We would absolutely recommend Keeler Tavern as a venue for an intimate wedding in the Ridgefield area.

They somehow caught every emotion, from my nervous laugh before walking down the aisle to the wild dancing at the end of the night.

I don’t think I could say enough wonderful things about Candlewood Inn and their team. Simply put our day was perfection. Krista and her team made sure everything was as we wanted it and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Our bridal attendants Mary and Leslie were the true fairy godmothers of the day making sure myself (the bride) and the rest of our bridal party had everything they needed at all time. The communication throughout the process coming up to the wedding and on the day was absolutely flawless. We felt truly cared for which can be hard to find with the amount of weddings that are done. The venue itself was beautiful, you cant quite beat the views on that lake, and so that alone makes it so special. The food was spectacular, us and our guests could not get over how delicious everything was. The staff throughout the night was so professional and kind, and made sure our guests were cared for as well. We loved having the time alone right after the ceremony with all of the appetizers we had picked just to have a bite to eat and take a moment to reflect on being married! It was so special and I attribute that to the work the Candlewood team put in. I would recommend this venue to everyone and anyone that just wants a beautifully run day. I  already cant wait for one of our friends to get married here too!

He expertly controlled the crowd with some of the best mixes I've ever heard at a wedding! My husband and I did not want to leave the dance floor!

We had Christina do our month-of/day-of coordination for our wedding and she truly went ABOVE AND BEYOND!!! It's been a few weeks and I'm still in awe with what she did with my mess of decorations that I threw at her!!! I work in a creative field myself, so I got down and dirty with the D.I.Y. for our big day. I, kid you not, had 300 colorful bud vases, 200 colorful candle holders/votives, and a massive amount of other silly decorations for her to set up for us. I did my best to stay organized for her sanity - but let me tell you - IT WAS A HUGE COMPLICATED JOB and she did it with such ease. I kept apologizing for the amount of work I was giving her, I felt like I was being a little insane with it all LOL... but she was incredibly kind, calm, and reassuring with me through the whole process and kept telling me to stop apologizing LOL!! She is so super knowledgable about everything and has such good instincts about event planning. I added on a 30 minute planning session a few months before she started her coordinating for me - and it was incredibly helpful. Aside from her eye for decorations and impeccable creativity, she was also so so so amazing in coordinating the event in general. I had multiple people from the wedding party ask "wait so that's your coordinator?" and then follow with something along the lines of "she's awesome she just told me where to go and what to do so fast - and I was like YES M'AM" All of the party loved working with her, from my parents to my in-laws. I cannot stress enough how much of an amazing person she is through and through - and if you're lucky enough to get in her books for your wedding, you won't regret it!!

Shannon and Three Roots were amazing to work with! You can see from the photos (By Jessie Barentsen) below how absolutely stunning our florals were on our day. Throughout the whole planning process Shannon was so easy to communicate with and always had very prompt, timely responses. She was able to take my thoughts and visions bring them together and to life. She was very detail oriented down to having me select ribbons and vessels for our bouquets and florals. She sourced the most beautiful candles and bud vases for us as well. We had some last minute cancellations and cut down 2 tables and she worked with us to reallocate what we had paid for those tables to florals elsewhere in the space to not lose out. On our day there was so much love and hugging the groomsmen boutonnieres were falling off before the ceremony and she made new ones for all of them and placed them on. I cannot recommend Shannon enough!

I’m a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in New York and Connecticut. I capture moments that feel alive—honest, emotional, and deeply meaningful. While I love beautifully decorated weddings, I’m equally passionate about photographing celebrations that are simple, imperfect, and real. Your florals don’t need to be full, and your venue doesn’t need to be luxurious. What matters most is your connection. I’m especially drawn to noticing the most touching moments in any setting—your emotions, your interactions, and the quiet love you share.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am so grateful she was there for my big day—her presence made everything feel effortless and truly special. From the very beginning, she was incredibly thoughtful and professional. Before the shoot, we met to discuss our ideas, and she took the time to truly understand our vision. Not only did she listen attentively, but she also shared her own creative suggestions based on her research, making everything even better than we had imagined. On the day of the shoot, having her there felt like having a trusted guide and a dear friend by my side, capturing beautiful moments in the most natural way. She created such a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere that I never once worried about how the photos would turn out—I simply enjoyed the moment. Her presence on my ceremony day wasn’t just about taking pictures; she played a key role in making sure everything went smoothly. When we received the final photos, my husband and I were beyond thrilled. Each image felt like a window back to that magical day, filled with love and joy. We couldn’t stop looking at them! Her talent, patience, and warmth made this experience truly unforgettable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who can capture not just pictures, but emotions and memories that last a lifetime.

With over 10 years of experience, documenting life's most beautiful moments has always been something so dear to our hearts as individuals. Aside from his love of filmography, Marc enjoys basketball, playing guitar/bass/drums, landscape photography, cooking, and watching his favorite shows while cuddling with our mini dachshunds Sammie & Brady. As for me... well I have many loves in life, but mostly salsa dancing & my dogs :)

We couldn’t have asked for a more exceptional team than Kalena and Marc for our wedding photography and videography. From our engagement photoshoot to the wedding day itself, their talent and creativity truly shone through. Kalena’s eye for detail and ability to capture the most intimate and joyous moments made our engagement shoot an absolute delight, while Marc’s cinematic style brought our wedding day to life in a way we never imagined. Both their work turned out to be nothing short of stunning, exceeding all our expectations and perfectly capturing the essence of our special day. Working with Kalena and Marc was a joy from start to finish. They brought a fun and positive energy that made every moment feel natural and effortless. Their professionalism and passion for their craft were evident in every shot and frame, resulting in a breathtaking collection of images and videos that we will treasure forever. Their ability to blend into the background while still capturing every beautiful detail made the entire experience seamless, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. We could not recommend MC Visuals more to anyone looking for truly extraordinary wedding photography and videography.

Isabella did my bridal makeup and hair! I felt like a princess. Not only did she do a great job but she was communicative and easy to get a hold of throughout the process! Her work speaks for itself! So grateful to her. She even stayed during my ceremony to do touch ups without me having to ask!!! Truly amazing at what she does!

Crystal was incredible to work with, not only did she take my last minute request but she accommodated my crazy schedule and was available whenever I had questions. My husband and I really didn’t know what we wanted for our wedding cake and Crystal was very helpful in navigating different cakes/flavors that worked well together. The cake itself was so beautiful and our guests keep gushing over how delicious it was! We are thinking of any excuse to order another cake from Crystal!
