We had our wedding at Venezia on 6/29/24 and it was absolutely perfect. Jennifer was our coordinator that we worked with throughout the entire process. She was so helpful and organized during the entire planning phase and truly listened to each one of our requests to make them a reality. The food was phenomenal, we have had so many guests reach out to say how delicious everything was, from the massive cheese display to the portion sizes of the dinners and the dessert table was HUGE. There was plenty of food and plenty of staff to assist all 250 of our guests. As the bride and groom, one staff member, Rob was nearby us all night for any single thing we needed and to ensure we were having a great time. He was so helpful! The timeline of the entire day went off without a hitch, once again thanks to Jen for understanding how we wanted everything to flow and to the entire staff for executing. There were no delays in getting food to tables and the entire ceremony and reception flowed smoothly. The newly renovated second floor space is STUNNING. We had our ceremony up here and it was beautiful. The venue has ocean views on both levels and a beautiful deck that guests were able to use during our reception. I can not recommend Venezia enough for a wedding or any other event - they are truly professionals and experts at what they do. Our day was perfect and we are so happy this was our venue.

Hi there! I’m a Boston-based wedding and elopement photographer documenting love throughout New England and beyond. You could describe me as being equal parts obsessed with my craft and my couples. I not only want to capture your relationship in the most honest way, I also want you to feel cared for and thought of throughout the whole crazy and incredible process that is getting married *cue happy dance here!!* My life’s work is capturing authentic, true-to-you moments for the joyful and in love. Consider me your friend and your personal storyteller. Here to cheer you on from behind the camera as I capture all the magical moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
We don’t even know where to begin with Nicole!! It was an absolute dream to work with her. Due to unforeseen circumstances (it’s COVID, right?), we were out a photographer one month out from our wedding. Nicole was the first person I messaged on Instagram and I am SO happy she was available. We met over coffee a couple weeks before our wedding since an engagement shoot wasn’t possible for our schedule. We breathed a huge sigh of relief after meeting her, knowing that we would connect with her perfectly. Not to mention, her style of photography and editing is exactly what we wanted. The only time my husband and I really posed was for formal family/couple portraits! The rest of the time, we didn’t even notice her and we got so many gorgeous, candid photos. We got our pictures yesterday, exactly on our one-month anniversary! I was shocked to get that many edited pictures so soon! We cried looking through our sneak peeks (which were delivered day after the wedding) and our full gallery. We felt comfortable, confident, and loved throughout the whole day. She fit perfectly with our intimate wedding, being one of six guests. I can’t recommend Nicole enough; she came in clutch for us, was super flexible with talking/meeting with us, was the best friend we needed day of, and delivered the most gorgeous pictures which such creative vantage points. I’m at a loss for words with how beautiful everything turned out. Thank you so much, Nicole!

Gina Brocker Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Dorchester, MA

When I was a kid growing up in Michigan, I was always fooling around with my mom’s old manual cameras and capturing everything my friends and I did. I took traditional art classes in high school, but even then, I was merely creating paintings of the photos I had taken. I went on to study documentary photography at the Maryland Institute of Art and abroad at the University of Wales, where I won the Nikon Discovery Award Grand Prize and was named one of the 25 Under 25 Up-and-Coming American Photographers. When a friend asked me to assist at a wedding she was photographing, and my plans changed in an instant.

Where do we even begin!? I feel so lucky that we found Gina. From the minute that we met her, we knew we wanted to work with her. Beyond being in love with her past work, she was kind and patient and warm and genuine -- she expressed just as much excitement about planning for our wedding as we did. She went above and beyond to answer our questions and was always offering to help in any way she could, even beyond photography-related things! She really took the time to get to know us and to make sure we were comfortable and had what we needed. We first met with Gina about 10 months before our actual wedding, but from there on out, she made a constant effort to check in all throughout our planning process and was incredibly helpful when it came time to planning our day-of timeline. She never hesitated to offer her expertise and always made time for us! She always made me, and my family, feel like a priority and I was so appreciative of that. Nothing like a little good luck rain on your wedding day, and in our case, it was torrential downpours! This threw a bit of wrench in our outdoor photo plans, but Gina jumped right in to help seamlessly transition our whole wedding party to our rain plan and made sure that we still got all the photos that we wanted. She braved the weather with us, sloshed around in the rain, ran in and out of neighborhood bars and never missed a beat -- all to make sure we got all the best pictures. I already knew this, of course, but so many of our friends and family members made a point to tell me how wonderful Gina was to have around us that day -- she captured the quiet moments and you didn't even know she was there, and then she jumped in to help keep everyone organized and on time through lots of pictures on a tight schedule, and still made sure everyone had fun! Our wedding photos came out better than I could have ever expected. She has an amazing way of capturing the magic of the moments -- big and small -- and every day when I look back through all the pictures, I get to re-live it all. She truly captured every emotion so beautifully -- all the laughs and tears and excitement and love. While the night went by way too fast, we're so lucky to have all of these beautiful photos to look back at forever and can't begin to thank Gina enough for making that possible. She's the best!!

When you book American Midnight for your wedding or special event, we guarantee an energetic and fun-filled night that will keep the dance floor packed. Our passion for delivering show-stopping performances combined with our commitment to client satisfaction is why we were recognized as one of the Best of Weddings bands for the past two years.

Nick and the American Midnight band were the perfect choice for our wedding entertainment. Their communication was exceptional - Nick went above and beyond by essentially acting as our wedding planner and therapist during the planning process! He asked thoughtful questions and cared deeply about making sure the music and flow of the reception were tailored to us as a couple. His attention to detail really showed the night of the event. The band put on an incredible performance - the song choices and setlist they curated had our guests dancing all night long. We especially appreciated how they wove in special musical touches that reflected our taste and personality. If you're looking for a band that will take the time to understand you as a couple and translate that into an unforgettable night of music and memories, we can't recommend American Midnight highly enough. They were true professionals and we feel so grateful they were part of our wedding celebration.

MK Your Dream Day

  • Planner
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Dorchester, MA

MK Your Dream Day began when founder and CEO, Mary Kate, was asked to be an extra set of hands at her co-worker's wedding. Having had a strong passion for events, she jumped at the opportunity and coordinated her first wedding in August 2019. Her love for wedding planning has only continued to grow over the years, helping dozens of brides have the wedding they have always dreamed of while growing a team of wedding professionals to help her do so.

We could not have asked for our day to have been more perfect and it is all thanks to MK. We got married in October 2023 and were completely in over our heads with the planning process with no idea what to do after selecting a venue. I had met MK when I was a recently engaged bridesmaid for one of my best friends and she was her day-of planner. Not only was I incredibly impressed with MK at that wedding, but my parents who were also in attendance said we HAD to have MK help us with our wedding. Through the planning process, MK made it incredibly easy to navigate and decide on vendors when there were a billion to choose from. She was our line of communication with our vendors throughout the entire process through email, Zoom, and phone calls so when the wedding day came everything fell into place just as it was supposed to. MK and Keara made sure nothing was out of place the entire day; from the venue, to the vendors, the wedding party, the guests - if there was I still don't know about it to this day! If your guests, wedding party members, and vendors are reaching out to you after your wedding to tell you how incredible your wedding planner was from their experience, you seriously can't ask for anything more. MK was the glue that held our wedding together and we couldn't have imagined our day any other way than with her running the show!! Thank you so very much, we love you! - The DiGiacomos (Danielle & Harry)

But even if none of those things apply to you, don't worry, we'll probably still get along just fine. I'm a wedding photographer, originally from Boston, but also living just north of Miami now.

I had been following Danielle’s work for a long time and I couldn’t wait for her to shoot my wedding!! To say she went above and beyond is an understatement. She made me feel comfortable and beautiful, was organized, fun, and creative. We never felt rushed. She even helped pin boutonnieres and flag down family members for the after ceremony photo shoot! She captured all the decor, every important moment of the day as well as plenty of awesome candids. It was wonderful to see the day through her lens and you can tell how passionate she is with her work. We will surely cherish these photos for a lifetime. I would recommend her to anyone!!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you want your guests to dance and have a fun and unforgettable night at your wedding then you need to hire Business Time. I remember reading all of Business Time’s reviews/testimonials back when we first began our wedding planning, and thinking “wow how is it possible for EVERY single review to be so glowing?”. Well now we know! Obviously a 2020 wedding meant a lot of plan changes and stress, but Mark and Business Time had our back from the get go and were ready to support whatever version of a wedding we were able to have. That turned out to be an intimate backyard tent wedding with just us, our immediate family, and the rock ‘n roll band known as Business Time (as Zach likes to say). We were hoping to make the best of things and have as much fun as possible with our family given the circumstances, and BT delivered! Our small group was up on their feet dancing all night. Several faces were melted during lead guitarist Zach’s amazing guitar solos. The band has a masterful ability to read the room and change the set list as needed on the fly, mix genres, and seamlessly transition between songs. They are all extremely talented musicians and we felt so lucky to have them perform for us in our own backyard. They were the best part of the best day of our lives, and I can’t speak highly enough about them

On the day she helped my parents with set up, ensured everyone was where they needed to be and fielded all questions from vendors and guests. The guests raved about the whole experience, and as far as I know literally nothing went wrong, and if it did, Sara handled it like a pro because I never found out!

The experience was nothing short of magical, and we owe it all to her. From the very first meeting to the final note of music, Meaghan was the driving force behind an unforgettable evening. She listened to our goals for the event (a very non-traditional party), made suggestions to ensure our wishes were fulfilled. She brought our vision to life in a way that exceeded all our expectations. One of the most remarkable aspects of our collaboration with Meaghan was her impeccable attention to detail. She was beyond organized and handled every facet of the event with precision and care, from arranging the perfect decor to coordinating with our band and vendors as well as the House of Blues team members seamlessly. Our guests were not just impressed; they were blown away by the entire evening. The atmosphere was electric, and Meaghan played a pivotal role in creating a night filled with music, laughter, and memories that will last a lifetime. From the lighting and sound, table arrangements, and the delectable catering options, every element of our party was flawlessly executed. What truly sets Meaghan and the entire team at House of Blues apart is their ability to understand their clients' vision and turn it into reality. Making such a complex event feel effortless is no small feat. Meaghan's dedication and passion for her work were evident throughout the planning process, and she always made us feel like we were her top priority. We cannot express how thrilled we are with how everything turned out. Thanks to Meaghan, our post-elopement party at the House of Blues was an absolute dream come true.

Congratulations, gorgeous! I hope planning is going great for you. Hair and makeup is such a fun aspect of wedding planning and I am proud to offer my 15+ years of wedding hair and makeup experience to you. I will ask all the right questions and provide scheduling to make your trial and wedding day hair and makeup experience seamless. Sit back, relax and let me (and a teammate if needed!) travel to you on your special day! Hope to hear from you soon!

I cannot express enough how thrilled I am with the services provided by Hair and Makeup by Natalie on my wedding day!! From the moment I inquired, Natalie was a shining example of great communication. Her responses were prompt, informative, and she was always there to address any questions or concerns. Scheduling a trial was a breeze, and I appreciated how accommodating Natalie was with my busy schedule. During the trial, I had a moment of realization that I wanted a different look for my hair. Natalie's response was nothing short of amazing. She not only listened to my new vision but also made it come to life flawlessly. Her adaptability and willingness to make the necessary changes truly set her apart. On the big day, Natalie and her assistant, Ariana, arrived right on time, which immediately eased my pre-wedding jitters. They took the time to listen to each bridesmaid and family member, tailoring their makeup and hairstyling to individual preferences. This personalized approach ensured that everyone felt comfortable and confident in their look. Natalie's supportive and accommodating nature was a game-changer for me, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Natalie and Ariana worked efficiently, and to my surprise, we actually finished ahead of schedule! This allowed for some extra moments of relaxation and pampering before the ceremony. Their time management skills were impeccable. The results were nothing short of spectacular. Our hair and makeup not only looked incredible but also lasted throughout the entire event, even with all the dancing and celebrating. I received countless compliments throughout the day, and I owe it all to Natalie and Ariana's artistry.

  • Production company
  • Starts at $1,600
  • Serves Dorchester, MA

Toast to That Entertainment specialises in integrating components of music, lighting and show production to make your celebration one to remember for all the right reasons. We have worked closely with clients to provide the ideal blend of stunning event design, meticulous logistical planning and execution, and tailored customer service. The mission of Toast to That Entertainment is to make each client’s vision for their event into a refined event that elevates the design and execution process to the level of fine art.

Alex was the DJ for our wedding, and he was so easy to work with. He uses a program that outlines our event by the minute. We were able to select the songs we wanted to be played, that we didn't want to be played, etc. We let him pick the music for some parts, but for other parts of the evening, we selected all of our songs. He made the reception so much fun - he really knows how to read the crowd! Very fun DJ! During the planning process, we met twice. He was super punctual and was able to answer all of our questions. We planned (what we thought were complicated) timed entrances to music, but he easily brought those ideas to life. We highly recommend!

She would immediately follow up to our calls with information for us to make informed decisions. This could have gotten really confusing and complicated but working with Sarah made the process so easy. I gave Sarah inspiration pictures and color palettes from various sources and she took those and created work that far exceeded our expectations. The personal flowers were absolutely perfect and exactly what I was looking for. The tables and arrangements at our reception were gorgeous and helped create such a beautiful space. I have received so so many compliments on the florals for our wedding day. THANK YOU SARAH!! I would 100% recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a florist!

  • Cakes & desserts
  • Starts at $5 per serving
  • Serves Dorchester, MA

Konditor Meister Günther Mösinger is a creative and passionate pastry chef with experience and education in a broad range of specialty baking, and he knew from an early age that his career would take a culinary path. He was born in the beautiful historic town of Freiburg in the Black Forest. Living on a farm, and being the second oldest of four children, he learned early on how to grow and prepare foods for daily living. The favorite place in the family home was his mother's kitchen, where he developed his deep passion for baking and cooking.

Let me just start by saying that I’m not a cake person. I’ve never been a fan of it - especially store bought; they’re always too sweet and the cake always tastes the same. So when it came time for a wedding cake, my husband and I decided to do a small two tier cutting cake just for ceremonial purposes. HOWEVER, when I tasted Konditormeister’s red velvet cake, my mind was blown. It was absolutely delicious - not too sweet, super moist and buttery, and absolutely amazing. We went with their strawberry gran marnier cake as the top tier and the red velvet for the bottom. Everyone who got a piece of either cake also raved about how god they were. The only complaint that I had, which is why I dropped my rating to 4 stars, was that the added decoration that we requested was not worth the 50 we spent. Despite sending pictures, the decoration didn’t come out well. So my suggestion would be to stick with the stock decorations that you’re shown at the store and if you want something special, have it made somewhere else and added when you pick the cake up.

Linnea Tangorra, owner of Tangorra Wedding Planning, has a degree in Business Marketing and has worked in the advertising and event planning industry for over twenty years. In 2004, after planning several events and weddings, she combined her professionalism and experience in business and her passion for wedding consulting to create Tangorra Wedding Planning. Linnea has been professionally trained through the Association of Bridal Consultants and has worked with some of the finest providers and vendors in the industry.

To put it simply, Linnea and her team are the best. Growing up in Massachusetts, I knew this is where we wanted to get married, however we were planning from out of state and needed someone with feet on the ground. From our first introductory phone call, we were confident Linnea not only had years of wedding planning experience, but she knew everything (and everyone) there was to know about weddings in Boston. Linnea answered all our emails, calls, messages promptly and she anticipated things before I could even ask. She easily and quickly set up meetings for us with our vendors. Even when I questioned some of our own choices of having a small wedding, she constantly reassured us that this was our day to enjoy! We valued her opinion on venues and vendors, and trusted who she had worked with. If Linnea said a vendor was great, we knew she meant it. In fact, she helped us choose one of the most beautiful venues (Boston Harbor Hotel) for our small, intimate, summer wedding. I had always expected the wedding planning process to be chaotic, stressful, and anxiety provoking, but with Linnea on our team I literally could not have been more calm. On the day of, I was able to enjoy myself and savor the moments, I did not have to worry about a single thing! The day was beyond perfection. We still have guests commenting that it was the best wedding they had ever been to! I am forever grateful for Linnea, and if you are considering a wedding planner - hurry up and get her on your team! She will be your best decision!

I became a wedding photographer to give you a sense relief that comes when you know you have a photographer that will be your ultimate hype person, be that person where you can always just be yourself in front of, and a person that will always look out for you on your big day. I want you to feel as if I am an extended friend throughout this process and trust me to capture who you truly are.

I can not say enough good things about Warren! Planning a wedding is so stressful and doing it during covid made it outright not a good time. Luckily we found Warren early in our planning process and he made us feel so secure about our photography decision. He was an excellent hype man throughout the whole planning process and especially on the big day. My bridal party loved working with him and had a blast taking photos. He truly makes you feel like family and takes great care to make you feel at ease through all of the awkward wedding poses. He captured our relationship in the most beautiful, romantic way. I have received endless compliments on my photos and I can’t wait to relive my day for so many years to come.
