Sandy Hook, CT
  • Florist
  • Starts at $6,000

At the age of 15 I began taking horticulture & floral design classes & fell in love with all aspects of floral design from that moment on. I feel that I am truly lucky to be one of the few people out there who found my true passion in life so early. Nearly 20 years later I still feel the same excitement & love I always have for being a floral designer. My love for what I do is how I am able to meet my goal of exceeding the expectations of each & every individual that I work with. There is not one style or budget that each person should have to conform to for their floral needs & desires to be beautiful.

I wish to give the highest praise to Melissa for creating the floral design of my daughter’s dreams! The gorgeous bouquets, table centerpieces and bud vase arrangements were outstanding. We were so pleased with the quality of the flowers along with her amazing ability to bring the complete vision to life!

Hannah was an incredible day of coordinator. I live in Charlotte, and we got married in Manhattan (where we lived prior to our Charlotte move). Planning a wedding from afar can be challenging, but Hannah made the process stress free and seamless! She made site visits to our venue, helped source a lot of our vendors who she had connections with and previously worked with ( the most beautiful flowers and live ceremony music! ), and led us through our day of events with ease. I truly could not have done it without her! She never let an email go unanswered - she was both timely and professional in person as well as over the phone. You can tell she truly knows the business and loves what she does! Would recommend to any bride near or far for a stress free, perfect wedding day!

We hired Rebecca as our month-of wedding coordinator and she exceeded all of our expectations. My husband and I moved not long before our wedding, and having Rebecca to coordinate with our vendors and keep us on task was a godsend during an otherwise frantic time in our lives. She kept everyone in line during our rehearsal (no small feat!) and made sure everything ran smoothly and according to schedule on the day of. Also, she’s just an incredible personality and we had a blast working with her. We can’t thank her enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
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!!

We pride ourselves on getting to know our clients and bringing their vision to life.

Awarded Best of Zola
First of all - the end product was just beautiful. Everything from the bridal bouquet to the ceremony flowers to the table styling was exquisite and super unique. Shannon did a great job incorporating my favorite color (yellow) and a whimsical, organic wildness into the design exactly as I had hoped. From our first meeting to the written proposal, Shannon interpreted my thoughts and ideas exactly. I was so impressed that she took my ramblings and half ideas and pulled them together into what I was seeing in my head. Shannon’s GORGEOUS color palette informed the entire wedding design and gave me a jumping off point for invitations, bridesmaid dresses, other decor, etc. Unfortunately, the process of working with Shannon was a bit challenging. She struggled with nailing down details: incorrect number of tables, inconsistent accounting of candles/bud vases, etc. It took a number of incorrect proposal drafts until we got it right - just weeks before the wedding. We were honestly quite disappointed by Shannon’s flexibility and communication. She self-describes as being highly collaborative, but that was not our experience. First, as beer nerds, having hops in the design was super important to us, and while she flagged early on it could be an issue to source real ones, we discussed using fake. While we all agreed that she shouldn’t use fake hops if they looked bad, we were sad to see on the day of that they didn’t make it into the design. It would have been nice to have heard a heads up from her that she didn’t plan to use them - even if it was just a brief mention on the day-of. Second, when our cake plans fell through at the last minute, we asked Shannon if she could possibly supply a few flowers for our small 6” cutting cake. She told us she would try, but later we heard from the bakery that she had given them a flat no. She never communicated her decision to us. Thankfully, the bakery pulled something together for us (shout out to Zest Pastry!). Third, the Monday before the wedding, Shannon sent an alarming email with the subject line “Head Advisory, Oh No!”, asking us what our plan was. Getting any email titled “Oh No” isn’t fun to receive less than a week before your wedding. Further, as a trusted wedding vendor, we would hope that she would have plans for weather or unexpected events rather than looking to us during a very stressful period. Lastly, (and most disappointingly) despite having a run of day schedule, Shannon was nowhere to be found when it was time to put on boutonnieres and corsages. Our photographers and party thankfully jumped in to help to avoid major delays to portraits (shout out to Katie Slater!). Fundamentally, the product Shannon provided was beyond compare - everything was beautiful. That said, the communication, coordination, and organization were lacking from our experience.

I’m a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in New York and Connecticut. I capture moments that feel alive—honest, emotional, and deeply meaningful.

Hi, I’m Melanie! I’ve loved photography for as long as I can remember. I have a background in photojournalism with years working in news and creative outlets. That background is at the heart of how I photograph weddings. I’m drawn to real moments, honest emotion, and the story that naturally unfolds when you’re fully present with the people you love. Nothing energizes me more than capturing your wedding day as it truly feels. On your wedding day, I’m not just there to take photos—I’m there to bring your vision to life, hype you up, and tell your story in a way that feels authentic, meaningful, and so you!

We had the absolute best experience working with Melanie. From the very beginning, her communication was excellent and she took the time to schedule multiple video calls just to make sure she fully understood our vision. Our engagement session in New York City went above and beyond anything we imagined. Melanie exceeded every expectation and made the entire experience so much fun and so personal to us. On our wedding day, everything was seamless. Melanie and her team were warm, welcoming, and incredibly calming amidst all the chaos. They made everyone feel comfortable and truly blended into the day while capturing every special moment. Our photos from the wedding perfectly reflect every emotion and memory. Melanie delivered both previews and final photos in a timely manner, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. We truly can’t recommend her enough.

The pair have been working together in the entertainment industry since 1996, with years of experience enhancing weddings and events. The team enjoys elevating events with their photo booth, offering couples and guests a take-home token when the celebrations have ceased.

If you’re wondering whether a photo booth is worth it—stop wondering and book this one. It was pure joy from start to finish. The setup blended beautifully with our rustic-whimsical wedding vibe, and the props? Hilarious, high-quality, and somehow perfect for every guest. But the real stars were the attendants. They weren’t just running a booth—they were part of the celebration. Warm, upbeat, and totally in sync with the energy of the wedding, they kept the line moving, the smiles wide, and the vibe lighthearted. Guests are still texting us about their photo strips, (that were high quality prints I must add) and we now have a scrapbook full of goofy grins, heartfelt moments, that they gave us night of the wedding. If you’re planning an event and want to add a dash of magic, a splash of humor, and a whole lot of memories—this photo booth team delivers. Ten out of ten, would rent again.

Our beauty team specializes in natural makeup applications and romantic hair styling. We travel to you for your special day or event.

Eye For Beauty CT was an absolute pleasure to work with. From the very first interaction, their communication was prompt, were easy to talk to, and extremely happy to address all of my questions and concerns. The quality of their work was nothing short of impeccable - Kim did my hair and makeup exactly the way I envisioned it, and I felt flawless on our special day. She was on time for our appointment and always had a wonderfully friendly demeanor that made it feel like having a friend getting ready with me. Kim was very patient, listened intently to my requests, and made sure I was completely satisfied. I cannot recommend Eye For Beauty CT highly enough for any bride-to-be looking for a top-notch beauty team to help make their special day truly unforgettable.
