Scarlet Roots 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Swampscott, MA
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $6,000

My photography career started 7 years ago in the editorial world - shooting for big brands like Sephora, Miller Coors, T-Mobile, and Wanderlust. Commercial work was cool and all… until I shot my first wedding. I just knew by the happiness bubbling up in my heart that THIS is the industry I was made for. Being surrounded by happiness and love on such a meaningful day is SO fulfilling and inspiring to me. I absolutely adore my job, and I’m so freakin’ grateful to have the honor of documenting such a special occasion for you.

Jules is at the #1 top spot of my vendor list. When I'm not available for a wedding or portrait session, I tell everyone to hire HER! Problem is, she's usually pretty booked up because she's THAT popular and good at making her couples feel comfortable and at ease. I have worked dozens of weddings with her and have seen her behind-the-scenes client processes, communication, surprises, the whole Scarlet Roots experience... and she's the real deal inside and out. If you're looking for a bubbly, caring, sweet, hilarious person to guide you through your wedding from the planning process to a year later, you gotta go with Scarlet Roots. She's an absolute rock star in the Boston wedding industry!!!

Brilliant Lens Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Swampscott, MA
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,600

Photography has been part of my life since 2009, long before it became my profession in 2015. My background is rooted in fine art, where I learned to slow down, observe, and pay attention to the subtle details most people pass by, the way light shifts, the space between moments, the emotion that lives in quiet gestures. That perspective naturally led me to wedding photography. Rather than staging every moment, I approach weddings as living stories, unfolding in real time.

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who captures the day without making it feel like a photoshoot, Jason is truly exceptional. From the moment he arrived, he was incredibly professional and thoughtful, but what stood out most was how discreet he was. It never felt like he was in the way or orchestrating moments that should have been natural. Because of that, my husband and I were able to fully be present and soak in our wedding day—and somehow he still captured every meaningful moment. I’m Indian and my husband is not, and Jason beautifully captured both the cultural intricacies of the day and the genuine emotions behind them. Looking through our photos, it’s amazing how many moments he caught that we didn’t even realize were happening at the time. We also received our photos sooner than expected, which was such a pleasant surprise. And the quality is absolutely stunning. The memories he captured, the quality and his eye are priceless. If you’re considering him for your wedding, do it. You’ll be so grateful you did.

Awarded Best of Zola
While dating my now wife, I used to drive past Olio every time I came to Peabody and knew from the start that it would be the home of our future wedding. The time came and we immediately scheduled our tour and fell in love. We knew we needed a special venue since our flower girl is in a wheelchair and Olio shocked us by being not only fully accessible but also so willing to accommodate our needs. Sarah helped us envision the reception and ceremony of our dreams during the walk through and we got straight to work! Olio provided a comprehensive vendor list but also allowed us the ability to bring in a few personal vendors as well making the process simple and also very customizable. Through Sarah we learned about her day of coordination service, Without a Hitch, and they truly lived up to their name! Ashley was an absolute icon and kept us on track through out the planning process and then made the day of entirely effortless for my wife and I. Our families can not speak more highly of the natural beauty of the space and also the amazing team. We can’t recommend Olio highly enough and can’t wait to spread the word about this amazingly LGBTQ and disability friendly venue.

Hair and Makeup by Sophia was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From our first email exchange, Sophia was quick to respond, thorough in their communication, and always available to address any questions or concerns I had. On the day of the wedding, her work was truly stunning - my hair and makeup looked flawless and lasted all night long, even when we took photos in the rain!. I felt beautiful and confident, exactly how I wanted to feel on my special day. She was very accomodating to a few of my late bridal party members as well! Sophia also made the experience fun and relaxed, listening closely to my preferences and making me feel at ease. I cannot recommend Hair and Makeup by Sophia enough to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and personable beauty team to be part of their wedding day.

From the beginning, their communication was easy, professional, and consistent, which put us at ease throughout the planning process. The quality of their work and overall value was excellent - they provided a well-put-together package that included a photobooth, DJ, and uplighting. Initially, we weren't sure about booking the platinum package, but we're very glad we did. Scott was classy and appropriate for the environment, but also knew how to get the party started and get our guests cutting loose on the dance floor.

  • Serves Swampscott, MA

Visit my Instagram for contact info and more photography! — ErinWholleyPhotography • Weddings are a culmination of love, life, happiness, family history, commitment, art, and so much more. My love for photography and the importance it plays in remembering cherished moments spans decades. Photographs are one of the only tangible items you receive after your wedding day (aside from the memories) to help you relive this time for the rest of your days. I will hype you up all day long to make sure you are enjoying every aspect of your day with your partner— that’s truly what it’s all about!

Erin was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! From the planning process to the day itself I truly don’t even have words. I had a wedding party of 26 people not including our parents who also had to be photographed. If I had to guess I would say that’s probably a photographer’s worst nightmare lol but Erin never once made me feel like our people were a hassle and she did an amazing job of keeping everything organized and even had me laughing the entire day. When people tell you that your photographer is worth the investment because that’s who you spend your entire day with, please listen to them. I could go on and on about how easy Erin was to work with and how well she orchestrated the day but what drew me to her originally was her work. I didn’t want my wedding photos to look exactly like everyone else’s and Erin’s style of photography was exactly what I wanted. I feel like saying she’s creative isn’t enough of a compliment. She is so insanely talented and truly has mastered every part of her job. I was incredibly anxious the day of my wedding hoping everything would run smoothly and when it wasn’t Erin stepped in immediately to help. She was even reaching out to vendors FOR me the day before my wedding so that I could fully enjoy my rehearsal dinner. If you’re thinking of hiring Erin you absolutely should you will be sooo happy you did!

My goal is to make your wedding day a care free, enjoyable experience! I will make sure everything is perfect so that you don't have to.

I would love to set up a zoom call to discuss everything you are looking for in your wedding day. Thanks -Alexis

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Alexis Ann Photography was such a joy from start to finish. Alexis got back to us right away whenever we had questions, and her bubbly energy made the whole planning process feel effortless. On our wedding day, both Alexis and Brendan were phenomenal—they captured so many moments we didn't even know were happening, and every single photo feels warm and genuine. We received our sneak peeks so fast and had much more than we expected. There were a few family photos that I would’ve loved more direction with the spacing between members, but the day was moving fast, it was 85 degrees, and I feel like everyone was getting a little flustered (as normal for family photos they are so overwhelming…those who know, know!!). I cannot wait to see the full album because I know it’ll be a collection of clear, beautiful images that tell the story of our day perfectly. Honestly, Alexis was one of the best vendors we worked with, and we'd recommend her in a heartbeat to any couple looking for a photographer who truly cares. Brendan was her 2nd shooter that we hired alongside with her and he was so comfortable to be around, my husband and I felt we made a new friend instantly. I will definitely be looking for Alexis’ services in the future for any additional celebrations!

Vinwood Caterers 
Rating: 5.0 (23 reviews)
  • Caterer
  • Serves Swampscott, MA

Vinwood Caterers is proud to be consistently recognized as the North Shore’s favored catering company. And for good reason. Vinwood’s Signature Style and polished service have been behind all of our sensational events, from simple to lavish, for over 40 years. Our philosophy is simple. Offer fresh, seasonal food at its finest and serve it with style and unparalleled attention. Vinwood custom designs every event and our menus are tailored to your tastes and vision. Our flawless execution, gorgeous presentation and unequaled value will ensure that your day will be spectacular.

TL;DR - when they say full-service, they mean full-service! Easily the best food and drink we (and most of our guests) have ever had at a wedding. The staff and especially our coordinator, Erica, were highly communicative, accommodating, enthusiastic, and went above and beyond to make our wedding as great as it could have been! Well worth the price! It's worth noting that they were partnered with our venue, Olio Event Space in Peabody, MA, but I have little doubt that they'd do an excellent job just about anywhere else they're willing to go. We had first heard of Vinwood through our venue because they had specific requirements and a list of partnered vendors we more or less had to choose from without a ton of hassle. While this could have easily become a nightmare, nearly all doubt was washed away as soon as we attended a tasting they hosted. We got to experience firsthand how great their food and staff were before getting into the thick of things, and we were able to get a head start on picking entrees, hors d'oeuvres, linens, and chinaware while we were at the tasting. When we had to lock things in, Vinwood was willing and able to accommodate our handful of allergic/picky eaters and create a dessert spread (cookie, brownie, and ice cream sundae bar) for us because we didn't want a wedding cake. From there until the big day, they remained very communicative about what they needed from us and what we could expect from them throughout the process, even going so far as to help us map out the order of operations in the wedding! Finally, on the big day, Erica and her staff took care of us throughout and were all very kind and personable. They went above and beyond in helping us decorate and brighten up the space to make it perfect for us, and we were once again blown away by the service, food, and drinks. We had lots of comments during and after the wedding about how great the food and drinks were, too. They took care of everything in the table and chair setups/moves/breakdown with what Vinwood, the venue, and we provided, all in a timely manner. I'll never forget one of the staff stopping to let me know the bar was closing, and despite getting lost in conversation again and again, she personally brought over a drink for me with a wink and a smile when she saw me failing to get away. If you couldn't tell by now, I can't sing them enough praise - thank you, Vinwood!!

DJ Shyne is the difference between a good wedding and a once-in-a-lifetime, next-level, unforgettable experience. Hiring him was the single best decision we made for our wedding. He is outstanding—a true artist in his craft. It’s so clear that he’s not only dedicated to his profession but also deeply loves what he does. We gave DJ Shyne what we thought was an impossible challenge: blend pop hits, Spanish tunes, emo throwbacks, Disney jams, booty-shaking hip hop, and a long list of theme songs from our favorite TV shows and movies (everything from The White Lotus to Saw). On top of that, we added a handful of random, deeply personal songs you’d never expect at a wedding. What happened? Not only did he execute this perfectly, but he became the catalyst for a wedding that felt curated exactly to US—spinning a history of us both as individuals and our journey together woven into a seamless soundtrack. His mixing was unique, unexpected, and so much fun. As the bride, there was no place I wanted to be except on that dance floor. Our guests went wild. Compliments poured in all night and days after. We got so many texts like, “BROOO your DJ?! ” that we started to lose count. But it wasn’t just about the music. From the very first Zoom, DJ Shyne radiated charisma and professionalism. He carried that positive energy into every planning meeting and right through the reception—he even gave our speakers personal pep talks before their toasts! And when it came to group dances, he did something I’ve never seen: he stepped onto the dance floor, mic in hand, and taught the moves live. Towards the end of the Cha Cha Slide, he started teaching the crowd the moves to the Cupid Shuffle so by the time it started they were already doing it!!! No confusion, no awkward guessing, just pure joy and inclusion. He quickly became the vendor we looked forward to meeting with most. We ended each Zoom call feeling assured, uplifted, and excited about the possibilities. Out of everyone we worked with, he was the best. It does not get better than DJ Shyne. He isn’t just the DJ your wedding needs, he’s the DJ your wedding deserves.

  • Serves Swampscott, MA
  • Offer

I'm Marc Sadowski, a New England wedding photographer with 20+ years of experience capturing weddings across New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont, and beyond. My approach is candid and documentary — I stay back, watch, and wait for the moments that happen when you forget the camera is there. I learned photography as a photojournalist, where you get one shot or you miss it forever. That instinct drives everything I do on your wedding day.

We had an absolutely incredible experience with Marc! When we were interested in booking him, he recommended we have a call first to discuss our vision for our wedding and the logistics we knew of so far. After we booked, we had another call the month of the wedding to go over all of our details. He left no question unanswered and was able to make sure we incorporated everything we wanted for photos into our wedding. Day of our wedding, Marc could not have done a better job capturing our first look, family photos, portraits, ceremony, and reception. He led us through a series of poses that felt natural and had us both at ease the entire time. We relied on his expertise for backgrounds and overall vision of the photos, and he exceeded our expectations. He was great with our friends and families, and captured any photos throughout the night that we requested. He went above and beyond getting the photos back to us in a timely manner. I can’t recommend enough hiring Marc for your wedding or event!

Marian was an absolute dream to work with, and we could not be happier with our wedding photos. From start to finish, she was professional, calming, and incredibly attentive to detail.

My name is Callie, I’m an award-winning bridal hairstylist & and owner of styles by Callie. I created this beauty company to cater specifically to onsite beauty needs. From the very beginning of my hairstylist career, I knew that making women feel beautiful on one of the most important days of their lives was my true passion. Hairstyling has been my creative outlet throughout the past 10 years, I love learning new and updated techniques involving bridal hairstyling. I’ve had the pleasure of working beside some of the most sought-after hairstylists in the north shore area, and learning all the tips and tricks they’ve had to offer!

Curly hair girls Callie is your girl!! I'm the type of person to fix my hair after someone does it. A professional blow dry? I redo it. Wedding hair stylist? I redo it. I DID NOT TOUCH MY HAIR on my wedding day! Callie nailed it. She managed the curls/frizz. She anticipated the impacts of dancing and weather. She's the person you need on your wedding day especially if hiring a hair stylist is really difficult for you!
