If you're in a hurry, I can help: I've written full ceremonies with just days to spare. You'll see every draft and can revise as much as you need. I also assist with vows, and I can bring in rituals like handfasting, a ring blessing, or a surprise where I share something private each of you said about the other.

She was a caring a nurturing presence throughout, was very receptive to our requested changes as we planned the ceremony script, and was clearly motivated by doing what would be right for us. She met with me and my fiance about four times during our wedding planning process to get to know us and modify our ceremony plan/script to what spoke most to us most as a couple. She was knowledgable about a variety of cultural traditions and helped us incorporate the Irish Hand Fasting Blessing into our ceremony, providing us with an everlasting, unique memory and memento (the handfasting chord) of our promises to each other. We received several compliments from our wedding guests about Lauri's ease and professionalism while she officiated our wedding. We highly recommend her! - Tess, May 2025 Bride, Bill Miller's Castle”

I handle all audio logistics—from timeline planning to day-of run-of-show. Pricing: Evening Celebration ($1,900): Cocktail, Dinner, and Dancing with 2 sound stations and polished MC services. Full Day Experience ($2,500): 3 sound stations plus my battery-powered ceremony system for vows on beaches or gardens—no noisy generators. My resume includes tours in the U.S./Europe/Japan, and playing alongside artists like Drake, Calvin Harris, and LCD Soundsystem. I bring elite professionalism to every event.

“As someone with a background in the events and music industry, my standards for production are incredibly high. Edwin (DJ Konsept) completely exceeded them for my wife Emily and my wedding in Montauk, NY. From our first conversation, Edwin was the consummate professional. His communication is exceptional- he is highly responsive, asked detailed questions to understand our specific vision, took careful notes, and was completely open to direction. We gave him a complex, multi-stage run-of-show, and he executed every phase flawlessly. He managed our outdoor ceremony, providing perfectly balanced mics and audio so everyone could hear our vows. He then seamlessly transitioned to setting the mood for our outdoor cocktail hour, and ultimately closed the night out by crushing a high-energy indoor afterparty. He arrived over-prepared with backup equipment and intuitively grasped the distinct musical vibe needed for each portion of the day. Technically, Edwin is a master. His beat-matching, transitions, and ability to read a room's energy are unmatched. He completely avoided the typical "cheesy" wedding tracks, weaving together exactly the right mix to keep our guests engaged. Furthermore, his pricing is incredibly fair and transparent, offering immense value for the high-end talent and peace of mind he brings to the table. If you want an incredibly talented, stress-free professional who operates with style and a cool, collected energy, you need to hire Edwin. He made our wedding day absolutely magical!”

Hi, I’m Rafael, the owner and creative behind JR Media Solutions. I believe wedding days should feel calm, joyful, and fully lived not rushed or staged. While I’m new to Zola, I’ve spent years photographing and filming weddings across Connecticut and beyond, earning over 100 five-star reviews by being dependable, organized, and genuinely invested in my couples. My approach is simple: show up prepared, stay present, and document your day honestly so you can relive it for years to come.

“JR Media Solutions was the perfect choice for capturing our wedding day. Rafael was fun, outgoing, professional and talented. He is so easy to communicate with and he made the entire experience easy and enjoyable. We had sent inspiration photos prior and Rafael totally blew those out of the water. The photos and video created absolutely exceeded our expectations. Rafael had the photos back to us within just a few days - we were so impressed! He was easy to communicate with and kept in touch days before regarding planning and expectations. We are beyond grateful to have chosen JR Media Solutions and would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and personable photographer and videographer.”

Welcome! My name is Tony Baldelli, The Owner of Tooovisual Media. Since getting into the wedding industry years ago, my goal has stayed the same. To help couples create lifelong memories, and make their wedding as memorable as can be!

“Tony is honestly one of the best in the game! I was definitely picky on who chose for a photographer and the minute I talked to Tony I knew I had found my photographer! He listened to me about what I wanted, was easy going to not stress us out on our big day & very organized. Even now all my guest still talk about how amazing Tony was. Not only did he get amazing photos but blended right in with our group of friends and family. Tony definitely has clients for life in myself and my husband! Could not recommend more!”

Hi! My name is Marisa Russo, the owner of ME Salon and Spa. I have been a stylist since 2014 and I opened this salon at 25 years old in 2021. I have been a bridal beauty expert my entire career. The places I have worked for have had many flaws, so I took my ideas and knowledge and put my heart into this bridal business to give Bride's and Bridal parties the best experience from start to finish.

“I can’t say enough kind things about the ladies at ME Salon and Spa. They worked with me through each step of the planning process to make it as easy as possible. They showed up very early to ensure that everyone was done ahead of schedule and did touch ups before they left. Lauren made my hair absolutely perfect and Victoria did such an amazing job with my makeup. They listened to me and all of my girls to make our looks exactly what we wanted and it lasted all night long. Thank you ME Salon and Spa for doing such an amazing job!”
