I worked with Virginia for my October 2023 wedding and we also did a hair and makeup trial a few months prior. Virginia was so warm, friendly, and professional and delivered exactly what I asked for! I never wear makeup so I was nervous about wearing wedding makeup and asked her to help me look/feel like myself and she did just that. She took feedback extremely well and incorporated that feedback on the wedding day to help me feel my best! She made me feel so comfortable. My hair was amazing and she ensured my headpiece stayed secure - and it lasted and looked great all night! She did an amazing job with my mom and MOH as well - they both absolutely loved their looks, especially my mom who also doesn’t wear makeup regularly. I didn’t really consider that this is the vendor you spend your whole wedding morning with, which can really affect the energy as you prepare to get married. Virginia’s energy was so positive and really added to my day, which I am super grateful for. She felt like a longtime friend. Highly recommend her!!

She was communicating with us well in advance of that timeline and available to answer questions, always helpfully. We learned a lot from each chat with Sage, especially when she joined us for a walk-through of the venue. So many great tips and ways to help us stay organized! When Sage and her assistant joined us for the actual wedding weekend, they were above and beyond all of our hopes. Sage was so on top of things, thinking ahead and keeping us on time, and I can't say enough about how easy she made everything for us. She was calm, kind, and prepared for literally everything.

Hey there! I’m Alana, pro makeup artist and co-founder of Kindred Beauty Co. We specialize in bridal looks that are effortless, natural + timeless. For all inquiries please fill out the contact form on my website. I look forward to connecting with you!

I simply could not be more thrilled that I booked Alana for my winter wedding! She delivered the exact look I wanted, even though I am not particularly makeup-verse and wasn't great at articulating what I wanted - she just knew. And she did such a gorgeous job on me, my bridesmaids, and my mother, all of whom have different preferences. Not to mention, she was such a pro to work with, especially when scheduling my trial - and RE-scheduling it last minute when I got sick! I am so, so happy I picked Alana to be a part of the day! She kept the energy focused but light on the day and we all felt absolutely amazing. I have never looked better. Thank you, Alana!

Dave Robbins Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Shelton, CT

Dave has photographed the weddings of notables like Christina Hendricks, Ellie Kemper and Piper Perabo, who sought him out for his one-of-a-kind brand of visual storytelling. Renowned for unique ability in finding beautiful nuance, Dave is one of the most sought after wedding photographers in the world. Passionate about his craft yet relaxed in his approach, Dave prides himself in his innate ability to put clients at ease. "When a subject is totally comfortable, they feel free to be themselves. What results from this is the beauty of authenticity".

Most brides don't expect to hear that their wedding photographer has gotten sick on the morning of their wedding - not the most fun news to receive. Thankfully, our incredible planner had already convinced Dave to photograph our Newport, RI wedding and we're SO glad that he did. He was so empathetic and kind, making us immediately feel at ease even though the first time we met him was the morning of our wedding. He managed our friendly and family effortlessly, and captured the most incredible moments (including the ridiculous dance party that ensued amidst a lightning storm that made us vacate our tent). There's one photo in particular that still makes me smile every time I see it - a candid of my husband and I absolutely cracking up over a best man's speech. I'm so grateful for Dave, not only for his insane talent and skill, but for his uncanny ability to make us feel special, calm, and excited amidst the chaos. If you are ever looking for a photographer in the NYC area or on the fence - Dave is a 1000000% no brainer.

We truly appreciated how he accommodated our budget without compromising on quality. Matt’s work is simply beautiful, and we can’t wait to see the footage from our special day. His attention to detail and creativity really shine through in his videos. We also had the pleasure of working with his second shooter, Nick, who was fantastic and added to the overall experience. What stood out the most was how much Matt genuinely cares about his craft and the couples he works with. During our initial meetings, he took the time to ask thoughtful questions to really get to know us, which made us feel valued and understood.

I am a traveling freelance makeup artist. Makeup has been my passion for over 10 years and I have been doing makeup professionally for less than a year. Makeup has always helped me feel beautiful, confident, and radiant and it's such a pleasure to be able to do it for others!

Whether you want the more natural look, the sultry look, or the classic beauty look, Macy Lo is your girl and the makeup artist for you. Her fun attitude and dedication is impressive, her knowledge is extensive, she is a professional, and truly a delight to have around. She asks you what make up you usually wear, asks you for pinterest images of girls make up you like, makes you a better version of self both at the trial and the day of, and always checks in to see whether you like or dislike something or whether you want less or more. She truly gears her talents toward the individual. On the day of my wedding she came early, brought her extensive line of makeup, additional accessories, and with a smile and genuine joy and excitement on her face got to work. Macy did such a beautiful job for myself, my sister, step-mom, and my two bridesmaids at my wedding. We all felt like princesses. I was so lucky, grateful, and thankful for her. On my wedding day, I felt truly beautiful and blessed. Macy played a big part in that. I would work with her again and would highly recommend her to anyone I know. If only she could pop out of my makeup bag every day lol.

Matt did the most amazing job with our wedding ceremony. It was fun, engaging, and heartfelt—which was exactly what we wanted—and it set the tone for the rest of our day perfectly. The process with Matt was professional and organized, while also being incredibly enjoyable. He met with us well in advance to talk about what we wanted and got to know us as a couple. He then showed us a draft and did a great job of incorporating the small amount of feedback we had. It’s been several years since our wedding, yet family and friends still regularly (and unprompted) bring up our ceremony, saying that it was one of the best they’ve ever been to. Matt was the first person we hired for our wedding, and was definitely one of the best decisions we made. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a memorable day that feels personal and unique to you.
