We love Liza!!! She was an absolute gem to work with from our very first phone call. She is incredibly knowledgeable, experienced, and so talented! On top of that she is a kind, caring, and genuine person who truly wants the best for you on your wedding day. We met her during our engagement shoot and felt an instant connection with her genuine, straightforward approach. She took time to understand our vision, asked for inspiration photos, and delivered exactly what we wanted on our wedding day. Even though both our venues were new to her, she scouted out incredible backdrops and knew exactly where to position us for each shot! During the photo hours on our wedding day she was calm, prepared, and helped everyone with posing and prompts to get us the results we wanted. During the reception she blended seamlessly into the night, prioritizing capturing our best moments without taking away from our experience of the night! Within 48 hours, we had 20 sneak peek photos we absolutely loved! Her talent really shines through. Liza arrived early, kept everything on schedule, and handled our family members with such grace and professionalism. We can't recommend her highly enough for couples looking for a photographer who listens, cares, and creates stunning images. 11/10!!! ️

Joseph and Erika truly MADE our wedding. Music was one of my big things to nail for the day and I am SO GLAD I found and chose these two. Their communication style was efficient, kind, personable, accommodating, and responsive, and the quality of their work was nothing short of talented, unique, perfect, and passionate. They allowed my bridesmaid to sing the first dance/acoustic singalong at the end, had the crowd BUMPING all night but especially during their last performance. They also curated the folk music of my dreams during cocktail hour. As an aside, I've been to so many weddings with microphone issues during vows and the sound systems and microphone settings were also super on point. It's a small detail but a great one to trust to get right! Do yourself a HUGE favor and book them- my guests and I will never stop raving about them!!

Julian FAR exceeded our expectations. From the very beginning, they hit the proposal out of the park, perfectly nailing our vision for the big day in a clean and clear format. Julian was super responsive to our emails, which was reassuring living on the west coast and traveling to RI for the wedding. The price was super reasonable, and Julian lined up a rental for the floral stands we needed for the ceremony, which was so helpful not being local. And on the big day. Holy smokes, my bridal bouquet was everything I dreamed of and more!! Our wedding day was super hot, and Julian did everything in their power to keep the flowers looking fresh, even tweaking the bouquet and boutonnière as the day went on to remove some of the pieces that wilted. The ceremony flowers ended up a little wilted, but that was out of Julian’s control. If you’re looking for a florist, look no further. Julian was made for this job!

These two made our night incredible! We had the best reception ever thanks to them! DJ Tavo accommodated our requests with ease and also offered a lot of helpful advice in the planning process. They did bilingual introductions so both families could be included in on the fun. The music was the perfect mix of party/spanish music which is exactly what we were looking for. We even had guests coming up to us saying that they loved our DJ! We also had a unplanned, surprise speech from the mother of the groom in Spanish that DJ Tavo translated to English on the spot.

On the wedding day, she truly elevated my bridal makeup even more. She took the time to do touch-ups for all of my most important ladies and made sure everyone felt camera-ready and confident throughout the morning. She also gave me a touch-up kit so I could stay flawless before walking down the aisle and throughout all of our photos. My makeup lasted beautifully all day and night, and I felt like the best version of myself. Johanna is incredibly talented, attentive, and such a calming presence on a busy wedding morning.

Cassie was incredible to work with, my wedding day couldn’t have been pulled off without her!!! I had a Cape wedding with a handful of moving parts as opposed to everything happening in one place— from getting ready offsite in rental houses, church ceremony, coffee hour in between to fill time, then cocktail hour/reception at the venue— Cassie made the day absolutely seamless!! I also had a few vendors who this was their first time working at my venue and everything went perfect!! Asides from how talented she is, seeing her warm smile on your wedding day is something I recommend for every bride! Thank you so much Cassie!

Based in New England & California, I capture celebrations of love and guide them through a layered visual process—transforming them into tactile keepsakes. My work blends editorial storytelling with an experimental approach, resulting in deeply personal and textured imagery. Alongside creative direction, my experience allows me to be an advisor for timeline shaping so the day moves with intention and room to breathe, building a collaborative storyboard, capturing visual analog film & super 8

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough about Justina—she helped our wedding day run seamlessly! From the start, she was incredibly helpful and communicative, working closely with us to construct the perfect wedding day timeline. She even provided a detailed wedding guidebook and questionnaire, which helped us envision the exact vibe we wanted. On the big day, when we inevitably fell behind schedule, Justina handled it with such grace and adapted quickly. She adjusted effortlessly, stayed flexible, and kept everything moving. Even with less time for photos, she still managed to capture all the shots we had requested. Justina’s collaboration with her brother Anthony, who did our videography, was another highlight. Instead of coordinating between two separate vendors, we were able to meet with both of them together, ensuring that our wedding day vibe was beautifully reflected in both the photos and video. They both were extremely professional and helpful, in addition to providing creative ideas that helped bring our vision to life. What truly sets Justina apart is her talent and eye for candid shots that look and feel so natural. You can tell she cares deeply about the quality of her work. She got us a preview album within a week of the wedding, and my husband and I were so moved by the photos. We still cannot stop looking through them! If you want someone who will make your wedding photo dreams come true and help you feel comfortable and taken care of on our wedding day, look no further than Justina. We couldn’t be happier with our choice!

Lizzie's Bakery 
Rating: 5.0 (14 reviews)
  • Cakes & desserts
  • Starts at $10 per serving
  • Serves West Somerville, MA

I specialize in custom wedding cakes and party cakes! I'm 100% self-taught and have been decorating cakes since 2016! I have 2 kids and I love celebrating life's biggest events with cake is my passion!

Lizzie made our wedding cake for our August 2026 wedding, and it was truly one of the highlights of the weekend. We ordered the cake tasting box ahead of time, and we turned it into a full family event—everyone sampled, debated, and ranked their favorites. It made the whole process so personal and fun. We ultimately chose the Vanilla Latte cake with Espresso Buttercream, and it was absolutely delicious—rich, balanced, and not overly sweet. We served slices to each guest during the band break, and so many people told us it was the best wedding cake they’d ever had. We’re already looking forward to ordering the same flavor for anniversaries in the years to come.

We recently had our wedding at the Kimpton Marlowe Hotel, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the beautiful venue to the flawless execution, everything exceeded our expectations. A huge part of that was thanks to our incredible wedding coordinator, Rachel Barlaam. Rachel is a true gem—organized, calm, and so dedicated. She executed every detail perfectly and made the entire planning process feel seamless. I can’t express how grateful I am for her expertise, professionalism, and warmth. She truly went above and beyond to make our day special, and it showed in every moment. If you’re considering the Kimpton Marlowe for your wedding, I wholeheartedly recommend it—and especially working with Rachel. She made all the difference.

I come from a fashion photography background and now happily spend my time in the beautifully slow world of weddings. After living abroad for many years, I’ve returned to the States. Travel has always been part of my life, whether for fashion or weddings, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Awarded Best of Zola
From our engagement photos to our wedding day, Jaffer had us feeling at ease and comfortable. Neither of us likes having our picture taken, but it was very comfortable working with him. Both of our families raved about how fun and easy Jaffer was to work with after the big day, and we loved all of our pictures. Genuinely the most easy-going, fun photographer who has interesting shots planned and will guide you to something that is comfortable and representative of you as a couple or family. Jaffer has incredible listening skills and is everything you would want in a wedding photographer. I would definitely work with him again for other photography needs, and would recommend him to anyone in a heartbeat!

I want my florals to always feel like a thoughtful gift.

We were thrilled with the floral arrangements and grounded arbor that Ephemirus created for our wedding day! Cailla listened to our vision, and helped bring it to life. The bright, vibrant colors of the bouquets, boutonnieres were exactly what we wanted! The grounded arbor on the lawn was simply gorgeous - the perfect backdrop for our ceremony that we later converted to our sweetheart table and entry way florals.
