Alex Cole Weddings 

5.0

  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Carmel, ME

Video exists in my life as an extension of everything I love about photography. Something drew me to it, and with the ever expanding video modes of my photo cameras, practice became commonplace. Being able to tell storying audibly as well as visually adds a level of depth that is hard to reach within photography. You can feel the story take you through a place in time. Moment capturing in all its beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m not sure if Alex knows this, but the first wedding I ever shot was with him and I was so nervous! Transitioning into weddings has not been easy but Alex was so kind and helpful. He never once made me feel inferior or uneducated (can’t say that for everyone I’ve worked with). I don’t care if you’re the best photographer in the world- if you’re an a**hole I don’t want to work with you. Looking at Alex’s portfolio, it’s obvious he’s a great photographer. More importantly, he’s relaxed, gentle and easygoing. Ive seen him pivot when the skies opened up and started downpouring 5 minutes before an outdoor ceremony was set to start and he never once panicked. Know that out of all the stressful things that can happen when planning and executing a wedding, photography won’t be one of them with Alex on your team. I look forward to working together again.

Festivity Films 

5.0

  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Carmel, ME

Festivity's films are fun, joyful and often fast paced, though we do enjoy a good romantic flick, too. We like to find the humorous moments, and we thrive on action, working to be there in the unexpected as well as pre-planned moments. We've got about a decade of experience under our belts capturing and editing wedding footage, first for other companies, and for the past six years for our own. Shooting wedding films is stressful, but amazingly rewarding when a couple tells us that they love the film and will treasure it and share it with existing and future family and friends.

Katya's work is fantastic. We were originally not planning to hire a videographer for our day and we are SO glad that we did. Katya captured moments and emotion that cannot be portrayed with just a photograph. Her eye is incredible and she never missed a thing or needed direction about where to go. Through Katya, we were able to relive the best parts of our day and see moments big and small that we missed at the time: a hug between family before the ceremony, my grandmother on the dance floor, etc. She captured so many of our guests in addition to all of our important moments. When we showed the video to people, they all said, "Wow, I didn't even notice her there at that time!" which just speaks further to her ability to blend in and get natural moments captured. The thing we loved the most about Katya's work was that she infused natural sound from our day in the videos: the pop of a champagne bottle, the clapping or laughter of friends and family, the music we used in our ceremony, etc. It felt more personal than some over-produced videos from other vendors. We definitely recommend her to anyone!

Afterward she was so open and willing to take feedback about my likes and things I’d like to change. She made me feel confident we’d get the exact style I wanted on my wedding day. Getting ready in the big day with Grace, her second stylist, and my bridal party was seamless. Grace was personable with us and made everyone look fabulous. I’m so happy with how my hair turned out and I would absolutely recommend Grace!!

I am Hillary, the lead planner and owner of Starbird Co. I was born and raised in Northern, Maine. I am familiar with everything up here, venues, florists, bakeries, and most importantly -- the weather. If you are looking for a secluded summer wedding or maybe prefer whimsical winter events, I am your girl! ​ I am anxious to meet you, learn more about your special event and become your go-to for the next few months as we make your vision a reality. It is that simple.

My husband and I started planning our destination wedding at Blair Hill Inn and as our day was quickly approaching we realized we would benefit from a day-of coordinator in order to truly enjoy our wedding day. We were instantly put at ease after a consultation with Hillary. We hired Hillary for day-of coordination services and two zoom planning calls leading up to our wedding day. As we entered our wedding week with a strong likelihood of rain, Hillary went above and beyond to create multiple contingency plans, working flawlessly with our other vendors to ensure we could carry out all the aspects we wanted in our day. As the weather forecast changed by the minute just prior to our ceremony, Hillary made recommendations but ultimately left decisions up to us when it came to changing our timeline, and carried out our decisions without hesitation. She was genuinely invested in making sure our wedding day went perfectly, and thanks to her expertise it did!

Avenue Design Studio - Wedding Planning

  • Planner
  • Offers 6 services
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Carmel, ME

At Avenue Design Studio, we began as a floral business, but quickly realized we could offer so much more to our clients. Over our 10+ years of working with couples on those special lifetime moments, we found ourselves stepping in to assist our brides and event clients with planning, vendor coordination, and overall event management. This inspired us to shift our focus and create Avenue Design Studio, a full-service event planning and design company. Whether you’re looking for full-service planning or just need assistance with specific aspects, we provide multiple packages and a la carte options to fit your needs. You dream it, we create it.

From start to finish working with Avenue Design Studio was a fantastic experience! I had an initial call with Chad and based on that I knew they were professionals who could bring my vision to life through floral design and day of coordination. Then they continued to provide clear and open communication throughout the planning process and were able to make suggestions as needed to advance my vision. The week of the wedding I was in contact with Morgan who would be our official day of coordinator. Morgan ended up saving the day when our bartender cancelled on us last minute; she stepped in and bartended on top of coordinating. Then she was able to work with me to donate our flowers to a women’s shelter; a cause that hits close to home for me. I cannot recommend Avenue Design Studio enough!!

Hey there! I’m Chris, and I’m stoked to be part of your wedding journey. My goal is to help make your day everything you’ve dreamed of. I'll even bring some dog treats. You can count on me to keep things stress-free—no “photographer attitude” here. If the timeline gets off track, I’ll help get it back on schedule so you can enjoy your meal. Based in Boston, I love traveling for weddings, especially intimate gatherings of 100-150 guests. I’m a fan of venues like barns, ski resorts, and castles. Capturing vibrant, cinematic images is my passion, and I focus on true-to-life editing—no overexposed skies or unnatural skin tones!

Chris was such a joy to work with! From our very first meeting before even hiring him, he really spent the time to talk through what our vision was and how we wanted our day to be captured. He was a great support every step of the way for planning as well as on the big day! In addition to being a great listener, Chris has great suggestions on how to plan for photos based on his extensive experience (angles, timing, group shots). Our wedding was a large one, so Chris hired a fantastic second lead photographer and several other photographers throughout the day so our event was seamlessly captured! Another important note - all of our family and other vendors (makeup artists, planners, etc) commented on how great it was to work with Chris, and were excited to work with him on future events - I think this is such an important quality for a photographer, and definitely appreciated how professional and friendly Chris was with EVERYONE! He kept the day moving as it should and captured some unbelievable shots that I revisit on probably a daily basis :) I honestly cannot recommend Chris enough - from his genuine care and support for you through the planning and important day, to the absolutely stunning product he delivers. Thank you Chris for everything!!

From NY to TX, then back again... I started my photography adventure 10 years ago in a small studio in upstate, New York.

I am passionate about creating timeless and lasting photographs for you and your family.

Wow! Where to begin! Peter was so incredible to work with every step of the way! He was flexible, communicative, creative, and fun to work with! He made both myself and my husband feel so comfortable during our portraits and we barely noticed him throughout the ceremony and reception as he quietly captured the most stunning moments and gorgeous candids that truly captured the evening! I couldn't recommend him more! It was an utter pleasure to have him be a part of such an important day!

John is incredible. We were on the fence about having a videographer or not. I came across his info on a Facebook wedding group and decided to check out his work. After reviewing his website, I decided to reach out to him about his rates and some questions I had. We ended up doing his 6 hour package, and also customized it so we could get all of our raw footage. His pricing is extremely fair and we loved being able to get a highlight video and the raw footage with our first choice package. Hiring John for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. Our highlight video is absolutely amazing. It shows our story and our relationship perfectly. He incorporated exactly what we asked him to. Our family and friends love the highlight video he created for us, too. Not only do we love it, but he delivered it just six business days after our wedding!!!

Now, my cameras and equipment are all the latest digital models, but I still rely on my experience and a well trained eye for capturing the optimal moment.

We recently had the privilege of working with Brightworks Photography for our wedding and I must say, we couldn't be more thrilled with the results. Steve, Rebecca, and Gabe were a dream team who were professional, friendly, and extremely talented from start to finish. Their personalities melded well with ours and made for an enjoyable day as they masterfully captured all the special moments of our wedding without interrupting our experience. Our engagement photo session with them allowed us to get to know them personally and understand their methods which ultimately made our wedding day run much smoother. Their attention to detail resulted in breathtaking photos (even ensuring we had a few particular shots we came up with). Importantly, Steve and Rebecca did their research, taking the time to learn the names and photos of all the important people in our wedding to ensure everyone had an A picture and they conducted a detailed study of the venue to ensure all the best angles of light were used. I would highly recommend Brightworks Photography to anyone searching for a top-notch photography team for their special day. Thank you, Brightworks Photography, for preserving the memories of our unforgettable day that we will cherish forever.

Here at MB Events, our number one goal has always been to have happy clients. From helping them plan at a pace that works for them, to keeping everything organized and stress free. We truly value the friendships that are made throughout the process.

Working with Marissa and her team at MB Events, was by far the best decision my husband and I could have made during our wedding planning process. Marissa truly goes above and beyond for her clients, and her passion for her work is apparent from start to finish. My husband and I chose a venue where every aspect of our wedding needed to be coordinated with third-party vendors (string quartet, DJ, catering (incl. table, chairs, linens), set up, breakdown, etc). When we realized how much we underestimated the time and coordination needed to plan such an important event, we knew we needed help. Enter: MB Events. From the start, Marissa kept my husband and I organized throughout the entire wedding planning process, ensuring our vision for the day came to fruition, and truly made our wedding day better than we had ever expected. We planned an outdoor wedding, and inevitably it was supposed to pour (thunder, lightning, flood, tornado warnings), and Marissa and her team worked from sunup to sundown to ensure that our day was exactly as we had imagined, rain or shine. Marissa was an advocate for my husband and I when difficult day-of -decisions needed to be made in relation to the rain, which allowed us to just “focus and take in the moment” which we are extremely grateful for. With some last minute timeline adjustments by Marissa, we were able to have the outdoor ceremony of our dreams. This would not have happened without the expertise and dedication of Marissa and her team. Multiple times throughout the wedding planning process I told my husband that Marissa seems to be the only vendor we chose that is actually “on our side.” We struggled with the organization and responses of other vendors, especially as the wedding season was in full swing, but Marissa never missed a moment. She was professional, quick to respond, and extremely reliable. I know that there are many options when choosing a wedding planner, but I can honestly say, I believe Marissa and her team to be the best there is. Personally, the only downside I’ve found about working with Marissa has been the end of it all… because it feels kind of like I don’t have my best friend around anymore!

We are still on a high from the most fun night of our lives all thanks to BeachNights band, Chris and DJ Connor!!! If you want to have music at your wedding that everyone will be talking about for years to come, book BeachNights for your reception and the DJ combo for your other music needs (ceremony, cocktail hour, afterparty). Booking BeachNights for all our music needs was the best decision we made for our wedding day. BeachNights far exceeded our expectations. Chris is so professional, organized, and easy to work with. They have so much experience in all types of venues; you will be glad you have a band who knows exactly what they need to do to put on a seamless performance. They keep the music process worry-free so you can focus on other aspects of wedding planning. A piece of unsolicited advice if I may, book BeachNights for everything: ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, afterparty. It was so much easier being able to talk to ONE person and coordinate all music through ONE group rather than having 4 music vendors involved in the planning process. They take time to learn about you as a couple, your music wants and needs, likes and dislikes so that every single song is exactly what you want and how you pictured your music on your wedding day. THANK YOU Chris and team for making our wedding dreams come true!

Maddy not only takes the best wedding photos I have ever seen, but she is the kindest person. As a bride, she was the most important vendor for me to be synced with the day of my wedding. Maddy kept me on schedule, calm and best of all- made sure I had fun taking photos. I can’t say enough good things about this woman. She made my wedding photos dreams come true. Thank you Maddy! From the bottom of our hearts Tony & I thank you.

  • Starts at $1,850
  • Serves Carmel, ME

With 15 years and over 200 weddings of experience, I have made it a mission to make it more than just showing up and playing music. It’s about making sure the night flows without awkward pauses and confusion, crowd interaction and not hiding “behind the DJ booth” all night. From pre wedding meetings deciding what were going to do and when, guiding you on the best lay out to fit your crowd size and venue their isn’t much I cant help with.

Robert was one of the BEST choices we made for our 2024 wedding! From our first phone call, we knew he was special and would help make our day amazing. His attention to detail, his go with the flow attitude, and comedic timing as an MC made our guests feel comfortable and kept them on the dance floor. We made several changes in the moment and Robert was able to execute perfectly. I can’t recommend the Toasted brew enough, I can say confidently that if I were to plan our wedding again, Robert would be my first call.

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

My name is Angie and I want to capture your story. My photography is honest and reflects your awesome, quirky and unique personalities. Prepare to experience an authentic and artistic reflection of your wedding, from its quiet, tender moments to its loud joyous ones. My images show the genuine connections between you and your closest friends and family.

Awarded Best of Zola
As much as Angie's photos speak for themselves, I've got a word or two to say myself: This photographer is THE ONE to capture your big day! We were initially drawn to the natural yet electric feel of Angie's work. The joy of her subjects feels very real -- because it is. Angie is there to capture real joy and real beauty and real love, not to force it through posing or a trick of the light. Her passion is for people and for love itself, and that's what makes her work second to none! Like I wrote above: these stunning shots very much speak for themselves (and they say "joy," "love," "BLISS!" and everything else we experienced on our wedding day) But Angie's talent isn't the only reason to hire her. She is a kind professional with a calming presence and a "sixth sense" for when & where to capture the perfect shot. She's got an artist's eye, and sought out unique locations & lighting to make the most out of our photoshoot around the MASS MoCA campus. (Check out that silhouette of our profiles! A spontaneous idea of hers ;) ) While we were still in the planning stage, Angie took the time to regularly check in with us and prepare. Whenever we were on the phone with her, it felt like she was in the room with us! Her friendliness and passion came through in our conversations, and we felt relieved knowing that we wouldn't have to worry about how we might "get along" with our photographer on our wedding day. Once Angie arrived on the day-of, everything felt natural. Throughout the day & evening, we never felt "overwhelmed" by her presence, yet she was always there to snap the most animated moments. And not just our most animated moments -- the photos of our guests are so charged with emotion, we can hear & feel them! Our favorite part of going through our wedding album has been seeing the joy on our guests' faces, all captured by Angie. Whenever we want to relive that night -- or live a new part of it that we didn't get to see -- our experience and all of our guests' unique experiences are just a few clicks away. I knew her photos would be beautiful, but I didn't anticipate this....totally immersive quality. Each shot is like a portal straight back to the moment it captures. These photos are ALIVE, and we are so grateful! Thank you, Angie, for all of the perfect lil picture-portals 333

Meghan was AMAZING!! I’m so glad we worked with her. She and Tracy, her colleague, were so professional, but also laid back and relaxed. They helped everyone in the wedding party feel good in front of the camera, rolled with our quirky sense of humor, and fit right in with our family in a way that made the day go so smoothly. The photos came out GORGEOUS and we couldn’t be happier!! She was also super prompt getting our photos back to us and incredibly responsive to questions. We’d recommend her to anyone!
