One can hardly describe the magic of a wedding morning. The soft hum of anticipation, the laughter tucked between moments, and the memories that will linger long after. Together with your stylist, your look is planned in careful detail, harmonizing with your dress, your vision, and the vibe you are creating. On the day, we arrive prepared with artistry and expertise, letting the morning unfold effortlessly. Every look is created to feel timeless in photographs, yet as natural as it is refined.

I got married about 4 hours away from where I live so finding the perfect person to do my wedding hair wasn’t easy! Thankfully, once I found Meghan’s Instagram, I just KNEW her work was exceptional! We did a trial a few months before my wedding and I provided some small changes and notes after wearing it the whole day. When it came to wedding day, she did exactly what I asked and checked in with me along the way. Not only did it look fabulous, my style lasted well over the 12 hour day!

A wedding is one of the best days of your life, and it is truly an honor to capture these precious moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
From our first correspondence with Jeff, the following 100 of emails that I sent him, to the incredibly thoughtful execution on our wedding night- we can’t say enough great things about our experience with Mystic entertainment. Not only are we thankful to have a nearly perfect wedding but also had vendors that allowed us to feel like close friends throughout the process and on our special day. Jeff’s process is both thoughtful and intentional. Our interview with him was a guided conversation that provoked a lot of thought in what we wanted in our wedding. His gift upon contract execution was incredibly kind and made us feel like we won a bid and not the other way around. His responses throughout the process were timely and friendly- never allowing me to feel nervous about the millions of questions I had. Although we didn’t have all the answers at our final meeting- we didn’t feel in trouble or pressured to decide things on the spot. Jeff was patient and willing to assist us in deciding things at a pace that we felt comfortable at but also gave him time to prepare. On the day of our wedding and even conversations still following the wedding, everyone has said Jeff could read the room. He knew when to play a genre, how to transition to the next- and the selection was incredible. He even let me borrow a mic and sing to my guests when my favorite karaoke song came on! There was not a single regret choosing Jeff and Mystic entertainment for our wedding day and we hope this review allows someone decide it’s simply the best choice!

Working with Jen for our October 2025 wedding was AMAZING!! From the moment we sent in an online inquiry, Jen was attentive, responsive, thoughtful, and incredibly detail oriented. She got us set up with a project planning doc immediately, and she was SO patient with us even when we were annoyingly indecisive about our vision lol. She met with us via Zoom to answer all of our questions when we were struggling to finish the document (and she is just as thorough and helpful via Zoom as she is via email). Once we placed our final order, Jen was communicative and thorough about the process of what happened next in terms of pickup, payment, etc. When we picked up our flowers, we were ASTOUNDED by how beautiful they were. I mean, we knew they would be beautiful, but truly, WOW. Aside from bouquets & boutonnieres, we also got garlands to use as centerpieces for our guests’ farmhouse tables, as well as small wooden circle magnets with a flower on top (we wood burned the j c into them ourselves) to use as favors. And they all looked incredible. An employee at our venue said that our decor was “the best she’s ever seen this place look,” and a large part of our decor was these flowers. I cannot recommend Jen and Wood and Word Blooms ENOUGH!!! PS bouquet photo is from today (1/5/26)!! The longevity is insane!

To know Julius is to appreciate his kindness and creative brilliance. When we began our wedding vendor search in 2021, I felt overwhelmed, but Julius came highly recommended. After seeing his work, we knew he had to be part of our special day. From our first conversation, he was responsive and made planning easier. On our wedding day, he captured every moment flawlessly, leaving a lasting impression on everyone. Post-wedding, he kept us updated on the video editing process, providing quick trailers and all the raw footage.

One memorable example was when the staff dressed up along with the Gatsby-themed wedding, truly immersing themselves in the couple's vision.

From our very first consultation through our wedding day, Victoria was professional, responsive, and incredibly thoughtful.

She has an exceptional eye for design and executed every detail flawlessly, creating a day that was extremely organized and felt even more beautiful than we could’ve possibly imagined.

While planning, Victoria was adaptable and willing to make any changes that we needed. She is warm, welcoming, and we truly felt like she cared about us, not only as clients, but as a couple. On our wedding day, Victoria and her team were outstanding! We didn’t have to worry about a single thing and were able to be fully present with our family and friends.

That's a crafty way of saying, I'm a computer nerd who's pretty good at photography and believes in great service! Digital image gallery, print rights, and beautiful, physical prints included with every package. My work focuses on telling my couples’ wedding day love stories through the pictures I capture. Artwork is the goal, whether it’s a highly-stylized posed photo or a moment where a loved one is emoting.

Awarded Best of Zola
We found Terrence very early on in our wedding process. His gallery had some of the most beautiful photos we had ever seen; some were dramatic, which is what my husband loves, others were soft, warm, and candid, which were my favorites. To find a photographer that could fit both of our styles was so exciting. Terrence’s package was over our budget, in part because we were marrying in NY, so would have to pay a travel fee. I was convinced I could find someone within budget. I searched and agonized for an additional two months. Finally, my now-husband convinced me that the photos would be the one thing from the day we would get to keep forever and we sprang for Terrence and let me tell you, both of us have agreed the extra cost was more then justified. In high heat and humidity and looming storms, Terrence did everything he could to keep us on-schedule and to get incredible photos at a venue he had never even been to. We just received our sneak peak gallery and all of us are in awe of the photos he captured. We look forward to working with Terrence in the future for other big life moments, and you should absolutely book him too - engagement shoot or wedding, Terrence will capture your moment perfectly!

ASHLEY IS THE BEST!! 100% my new bff. She is so funny, kind, and easy to work with. We got to know her while doing our engagement photos and it made her feel like family the day of. I’m so glad we used her, the photo sneaks we got back were dreamy, romantic, and so moody. Her editing style is flawless and her ability to capture the candid moments is exactly what we wanted. We cannot recommend her enough, definitely the best in her field!!!!

Evergreen Farms was the perfect wedding venue for our special day. From the moment we first reached out, Jess and Mike were incredibly responsive, helpful, and detailed in their communication. They were flexible and accommodating, even opening the venue early to ensure our vendors had enough time to set up. The venue itself was spacious, with a beautiful rustic charm that provided a creative backdrop for our celebration. All of our guests were amazed by the stunning space, especially the large dance floor that kept the party going all night long. Jess and Mike went above and beyond to help us create the wedding of our dreams. We are so grateful for their exceptional service and highly recommend Evergreen Farms to any couple looking for a truly special venue.

There’s a reason we’re drawn to flowers. It’s the same reason we’re drawn to the mountains, the sea and everything in between. Hi! I'm Rebecca, owner of Rudbeckia Florals. With a lifelong admiration for nature, Rudbeckia florals is an ode to this. Designs give into the will of each stem and petal to create arrangements lead by shape and texture.

Working with Rudbeckia Florals was such a blessing from start to finish. Sarah and her team were quick to respond to every question and made me feel like I was in great hands the entire time. I’m a very simple person and I wanted simple arrangements that still would wow people. Rebecca hit that sweet spot on the nose perfectly! The arrangements turned out stunning—classic and elegant. My grandmother gushed about them all night, and our guests kept complimenting the flowers throughout the reception. What really will stay with me was how Rebecca handled a last-minute request; I had forgotten to order flower girl baskets, and she was able to whip them up on the spot using a spare bridesmaid bouquet I had on hand. Her work exceeded what I imagined, and the whole experience felt effortless because of how professional and thoughtful she was. I'd recommend Rudbeckia Florals to anyone planning a wedding! 5 stars because 100 isn’t available!!

I cannot speak highly enough about Marisa! From the very beginning, she made me feel completely comfortable and empowered, allowing me to stay in the driver’s seat every step of the way. As someone who rarely wears makeup, I was nervous about not feeling like myself on such an important day, but Marisa listened carefully and recreated a natural yet radiant look that felt so me. I truly felt beautiful and like myself, which is all I could have hoped for. Marisa has such kind and warm energy. She was thoughtful and genuinely invested in making sure I felt my best. She even sent me off with a personalized touch-up bag complete with lipstick and other little goodies that added a really special touch. I’m so grateful to have had her as part of my special day.

I love capturing weddings in a way that feels real and true to who you are. My style is true to color with a mix of candid moments and gently guided portraits. I’ll step in when you need direction and step back when the moments are happening on their own so you can enjoy your day without feeling like you’re constantly posing. I’m based in Connecticut and have a studio in New London. I love working with couples who are excited to celebrate their story. Whether you’re planning a small or a big celebration, I’d be honored to be part of it.

Hands down an amazing photographer!! Jeshalee has always made me feel so comfortable and confident during my photoshoots! Her attention to detail is amazing! She always knows how to bring my visions to life.
