We are women owned and operated. We want to congratulate you on your engagement and upcoming wedding. We have been in the event and bartending industry for 5 years and this company was born in 2021. We have our liquor license and are fully insured. We love what we do and we can’t wait to celebrate with you! We bartend backyard weddings, public and private venues.

We loved working with Shelby & Co for our day of bar services. We added bartending services kind of later in the game, but Shelby was professional and straight forward in what we needed. We opted for purchasing our own and Shelby provided us estimated totals, tips on how/where to buy and tracking numbers. We paid for three bartenders, all of which were great. Definitely would reccomend for all buy-your-own brides!

Louis Pettinelli Entertainment has musical ensembles that range from a soloist to a 15 piece party band, and everything in between!

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.

Hi, I’m Danielle! I'm from Massachusetts and currently live in Chelmsford with my fiancé and our cat, Darryl Strawberry. I'm a very easy-going, positive person who is always looking on the bright side of things. I like to stay busy and I work a lot, but I balance my work with time in nature, trips to the sauna, and classes at the gym. I lived in Spain for 5 years and am fluent in Spanish. I have traveled quite a bit (and still do!) and love to explore new places & meet awesome people! I love nights in cooking & bingeing shows with my fiancé (currently watching What We Do in the Shadows).

I can't say enough amazing things about Danielle! She beautifully captured every meaningful moment of our wedding. She is professional, timely, easy to communicate with, and incredibly talented! She created the perfect balance of a few posed photos paired with tons of stunning candids. Looking through our album afterwards, my husband and I were in awe of how it felt like she was always in the right place at the right time to capture every detail of our day. It allowed my husband and I to just be in the moment to soak everything in. Our photos far exceeded our expectations and we are so happy to have chosen Danielle to perfectly tell the story of us!

Scott Hussey Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,850
  • Serves Ludlow, VT

A photography professionally since 1997, my photographic skills were honed back in the days of film, working in my family's advertising agency. After many years of commercial photography experience, I officially launched my photography-exclusive business in 2009, leaving the advertising world behind. The catalyst which caused me to make this career shift was a cancer diagnosis in 2008. Having cancer causes you to reevaluate a lot of things about how you spend the time you have left in this world. And I wanted to spend whatever time I have left here doing something meaningful. And what could be more meaningful than weddings?

We worked with Scott for our October 2021 wedding. We were so happy we chose him as our photographer. He is so professional and experienced, he helped us stay as ease. From helping us in organizing the order of our events at our reception to making sure everything went smoothly like we planned at our ceremony, we were very impressed. Our photos are absolutely beautiful, he captured all those special moments!

Hi there, we’re Shaunna + Mike! New Hampshire natives, and lovers of adventures.

On wedding day Shaunna and Mike helped alleviate nerves with their fun prompts and sense of humor. We got multiple compliments on how fun and easy they were to work with. We highly recommend them!!

Easygoing and thoughtful are the two adjectives that come to mind when considering how I approach my work. As a wedding photographer, it’s my job to help my couples feel comfortable, ultimately setting the tone for everything. This approach allows me to preserve the authenticity of your wedding day so that every image in your gallery is true to you. Based in Boston, I have over seven years of experience within the industry and a BFA in photography from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University.

Rebecca is an amazing photographer and takes beautiful pictures. Everyone who saw our pictures has commented on the quality and elegance of the photos. She is friendly and punctual and organized which helped us stay on schedule. She is very professional, and very communicative about specific photo shots/ideas during pictures and very clear about specific poses and how to execute them so it looks flattering. I would recommend her to everyone as their wedding photographer or event photographer!

Hinesight Imagery

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Ludlow, VT

I would describe my photography style as cinematic with true to life colors. I have the ability to switch from a journalistic photographer to a portrait photographer throughout a wedding day. The little in between moments make for the best photos, and I’m not about capturing awkward poses and forced smiles. I anticipate the moments that will happen throughout the day and have my camera ready. I want you to feel the emotions of the day when you look at your photos! Beautiful locations and perfect lighting can make spectacular images, but if it doesn’t help tell the story of your day, it is meaningless.

Drew, along with Glenn, captured our wedding on 10/1/22. From the beginning Drew and Glen were easy to work with and had a plan for every moment they wanted to capture for us. They were both so easy to work with and made us feel beyond comfortable. Being part of the LGBTQ community can make it difficult to find a friendly vendor, but both Drew and Glenn treated us like any other couple. We are grateful that we chose them. The pictures came out better than we dreamed of! Thank you both!

My love of photography began a decade ago when I was introduced to film development in my high school's dark room. I went on to further my education in college where I majored in fine art photography. I find that in my free time, I am hiking with my other half, Jameson, and our two lovely dogs! There are so many ways for me to connect to the world, whether through nature, furry friends, or a good meal I am happy to be sharing it with someone. I'm excited to get to share my passion with the world through Little Redd Photography.

I am a wedding photography and videographer and I had the privilege to work with Danielle. She does a great job at putting people at ease and making the photography section of a wedding day fun! Danielle is incredibly helpful with planning your day and making it run smoothly. Her photos come out fantastic and she has a great eye for creating unique wedding photos. You'd have a hard time finding someone who can deliver great photos and make the experience special like Danielle can. I'd work with again anytime!

Elopement & Wedding photographer in the beautiful Upstate NY. We love sophisticated, stylish and romantic vibes, as well as rustic and adventureful days. We travel throughout the northeast and the mountain ranges of the ADK. In addition to capturing the traditional wedding photos, luxury high-end wedding photography services often include a range of extra features, such as engagement photo shoots, bridal portraits, boudior and even aerial drone photography. These services can help to create a truly unique and personalized experience that will be treasured for a lifetime.

Amanda from Golden Heart Studios was the photographer for our wedding in August, 2023. Before the wedding day we discussed the schedule and the look we were going for in our photos and Amanda went above and beyond to give us what we were looking for. She was great with directing us, the wedding party, and family to pose for photos and really thought through where she would be at different parts of the ceremony to make sure that she got beautiful shots. She was especially good at getting the little kids to look at the camera. The editing of the photos was also exactly what we were looking for. My only regrets are that I didn't schedule more time and that I didn't have a more detailed schedule for my family when it came to photos. On the wedding day itself, it was a bit like herding cats. But Amanda was very helpful, cooperative, and creative and made it work anyway! The pictures looked great and she really captured the atmosphere of the ceremony and reception!

When someone asks me, “Was it a nice wedding?” I usually rate to see how many people are on the dance floor. And with The Miles Band, there were a lot of empty seats. They played music every one of all ages knew and could dance to. They learned to play my husbands’s mother and son dance and they knew our First Dance song! They took requests and gave us a night I’ll always remember. Weeks after the wedding and I still have people telling me how great the band was and how much fun they had.

I've been photographing weddings since 2010 after I was asked by a friend if I would be their wedding photographer and I haven't found another job that has made me feel quite the same way as Wedding Photography.

Having Jem at our wedding felt like having another friend there. She capture every moment we wanted perfectly. I never felt annoyed with taking endless photos, she made it effortless and so enjoyable! I cannot stop looking at our photos and can't even narrow down our favorites. She is perfect & magic!

enjoy! has been providing live music for all styles of events for close to 20 years along the Jersey Shore. The band has performed over 300 weddings in it's tenure and has carved out a unique niche in providing powerful performances for the live music lover.

We first saw Enjoy! playing a show at one of our favorite local bars the summer before our wedding and after a few songs, we knew they would be our perfect wedding band. Not only are all of the members extremely talented, but they played an awesome combination of songs that we love dearly from artists like Phish, Jimi Hendrix & Talking Heads. Once we met John and the rest of the band, we knew their personalities meshed so well with ours and it was the perfect match. They were extremely easy to work with when we planned out our song list and gave us great recommendations. When it came to the actual wedding day we were blown away! Not only did they do an awesome job on the songs we requested, they added some more that they felt would keep the party going. We still get comments on how awesome our band was to this day. We could not have picked a better group of guys and we highly recommend them to anyone who wants their music to make their wedding! And added bonus: they are great guys - a ton of fun! Any time we get the chance, we go and see their shows. Thank you guys!!!! You are the best.

Sarcasm & Sunshine Designs is comprised of two friends, turned business partners. We worked together for several years planning events and weddings, so we have a shared love of sparkle, flowers, coffee, and making beautiful memories! We couldn't think of a better way to celebrate our growth as friends, mothers and confidants, than to combine our creativity and passions to create one of a kind items to brighten the days and lives of others. Our business, our products, and our partnership is all about balance, Contessa is the Sarcasm, Danielle is the Sunshine. Some days, we switch roles, but we think life is better with both!

Having my wedding flowers preserved was extremely important to me. To be able to keep something perfectly preserved that was so beautiful on my special day is unreal. Danielle is the kindest and easiest person to work with. She gets back to you within seconds and listens to any and every crazy request I had. Along with a tray, wine stopper, ornament, and book mark, Danielle was able to take part of my Mother’s wedding dress (that was wrapped around my bouquet) and preserve it in a jewelry box with my flowers. Let me tell you, the reaction my mom had on her face when I gave her that jewelry box was indescribable. If you are ever second guessing preserving your wedding flowers, this is your sign to do it. You won’t regret it! Sarcasm and Sunshine’s work is impeccable and I hope that others are able to have their flowers preserved with such care and precision as I was able to have mine.

I love every minute of what I do — the wonderful people I meet, the amazing locations I travel to, and the ability to preserve memories that families will treasure for many years to come. I have been photographing weddings for 8 years and have photographed more than 200 weddings!

As a fellow event professional, it is always a pleasure to work with Trina. Her impressive body of work speaks for itself, she also manages to be both fun and task oriented at the same time. That doesn't come across as easily when looking at the beautiful, thoughtfully taken photos. Once she arrives at a venue, she will stop and get caught up on communications with the client, then She quietly goes about her business capturing moments as they happen. She checks in from time to time to make sure she is ready for what's to come, and alerts me of anything significant the client may want. I have done many events with Trina, and I'm always excited to know I am working with her. I know you will be excited to be working with her too!

You can always find me cuddling my dog like it’s my human child, watching Friends, eating pizza & going on spontaneous road trips with my husband.

I really love plants, museums, documentaries, painting with watercolor, antiques and being weird in general. I'm a simple person with a huge heart and I love what I do & everybody I get to work with! Also dogs > people.

We cannot recommend Vanessa enough - I will be singing her praises until the end of time.

Tara Tomlinson Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Ludlow, VT

I have been photographing weddings professionally for 14 years and have reached the phase in my career where I can relax and have fun with my couples knowing that I have the skills and experience to back up my passion and creativity. I split my time between the Gulf Coast of Florida and New England, though I now call Maine home. I am both a dog & cat person - I have a Golden Retriever named Oliver, a lab mix named Juniper, a Maine Coon named Meadow, a Siamese mix named Healy, and a teeny little runt-of-the-litter kitty named Lucie. I am an avid audiobook listener - if I am editing, cleaning, or driving, I most likely have an audiobook going!

Hiring Tara Tomlinson as our photographer was hands down the best and most important decision we made for our wedding. From the first phone call we knew she would be who we'd hire for our wedding. Throughout our wedding planning process Tara was excited for us and open to answering our questions when we asked for advice since the wedding planning process was so new and different (I'm the first person in my husband and I's families to get married so we were figuring everything out on our own) and Tara offered support in the form of recommendations when we asked. My husband and I from the beginning were not planning on a first look and wanted to be traditional, on a call with Tara I wanted to hear about her timeline with and without the first look because I was curious and didn't want to be closed off to any ideas for the wedding. Tara explained both timelines perfectly and very respectfully not pushing one or the other. We ended up going with a first look and couldn't be happier with our decision! Tara was extremely professional and personable, this is defiantly not a person you will ever think of micro-managing at any point in the planning process or day of the wedding. Day of the wedding we couldn't have felt more comfortable with her process and vision. The tone she uses throughout the day and with everyone she is shooting was perfect and everyone enjoyed the process and time with her. We received our sneak peaks VERY quickly with more photos then we ever expected at that point. Our photos were beyond what we ever could have expected, a true dream come true and I'm extremely grateful for her and what she produces. I'll end this review with I don't take reviews lightly and am very honest, this women deserves every word written here!

Hi beauties! I’m Nicole, and capturing your nostalgia is what I’m all about. Art was always my favorite subject. From creating out of the art cart in elementary school to graduating with my master’s in art education, it’s my life. I’ve experimented with several mediums over the years: ceramics and abstract painting being the most prominent. But photography kept calling to me. I love meeting people and learning their stories. I believe that capturing memories is important, and photography is the best way to do that. My approach to photography is through candid genuine moments, to let you be yourself.

Nicole photographed my micro wedding early February in the mountains of Whitefield, NH! Nicole was a natural and came so organized for this day. Im very awkward in front of the camera, but she made this so easy by giving direction. She had already scoped out the venue and had multiple beautiful spots we took photos in such an easy and organized fashion. We laughed through the stress of my lack of organization,had fun, and she even helped me with wardrobe malfunction ( double sided tape for the win!) Our photos with the mountain backdrop look like something out of a magazine. I’m so thankful that I hired Nicole for our day. These pictures will forever make us smile and remember our beautiful wedding. Thanks again

From her high school darkroom days, to full time wedding and family photography, Kelsie leaned into her passion of capturing couples’ stories as they unfold. As a student of the Art Institute of Boston and Maine Photographic Workshops, art has always been an outlet for Kelsie. In addition, her Culinary Arts and Hospitality degree and extensive experience in catering and event management, gives her an advantageous eye for the details. Enjoying colors, fabrics, and florals, she is able to capture both the celebratory love shared at a wedding as well as the design and beauty surrounding the couple and their guests.

Having Kelsie as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding! Kelsie is fun, thoughtful, organized, flexible, and such a talented photographer. Her previous experience as an event planner shone through as she kept in touch and asked careful questions to get to know us and think through our vision. Covid got in the way of many of our plans and we had to reorganize our whole wedding just days out, but Kelsie’s eye for balancing big moments and small details really captured all the special parts of our day. We couldn’t be more thrilled with how our photos and wedding album turned out!

We have history, we have cameras, we have a height difference. And we think two heads are better than one, four eyes better than two. We are Joe and Katye Brier, and picture-making is a daily passion and pursuit in our family. It’s the souvenir we take home after traveling, and they way in which we wrap our heads around the passage of time. Our approach to wedding photography is to extend as much care to the small moments as we do to the marquis moments of the day.

While researching wedding photographers, my wife and I stumbled upon HC's work and we knew we had to reach out. For our small wedding, we only needed one photographer, and Joe was everything we were looking for. We didn't need a bunch of portraits of the wedding party and family, and only had a rough idea of a post-ceremony photo-op. We basically told Joe to think photo-journalism and gave him complete freedom. We're so happy with the results. There are so many candid moments that you will completely miss on your wedding day, and his stealthy patience and perspective showed us things that we would have never noticed. He has a really fantastic eye and sense of moment. Communication was great, and his attitude was unrelentingly positive. He was the only non-local vendor at our wedding, and fit right into our little community.

Capturing all joyful moments, fulfilling celebrations, and timeless memories of weddings is a true passion of mine. Throughout my career I have developed techniques by using both digital and film mediums, allowing the camera to capture motion imagery as well as detailed portraits. As a professional photographer, my goal is to obtain the stories of each unique formality, as every participant has their own story to tell. I am a firm believer that organic and natural photos are the ones that will live on forever and bring back the heartfelt reminiscence of that moment. I am looking forward to hearing your story.

My husband and I can’t stop talking about Lushi and how much we appreciated her not only on our wedding day but the months and weeks leading up to it. From the minute we met Lushi two years ago, she felt like a friend which brought great comfort. We had to postpone our wedding due to Covid and she stayed in contact with us the whole time and never made us feel forgotten. The day of the wedding Lushi showed professionalism and grace which made me feel very much at ease during that hectic day. She was direct but also calm while navigating her surroundings, making sure she got the best shot. She was very quick with sending us “preview pictures” from the day to hold us over which were absolutely beautiful. Our family and friends commented on how talented and creative Lushi is as a photographer and how great the photos came out. We look forward to working with her again in the future, perhaps when we start a family of our own. We will highly recommend her to all family and friends looking for a photographer.

I'm Lauren - a natural light wedding and dog photographer based in Boston and willing to travel all over New England. I have the absolute best job photographing beautiful couples and their adorably, fluffy pups! Being a photographer is more than just a job to me - it's a dream come true! I believe it is an honor to capture your wedding day and I promise never to take that privilege lightly. On your wedding day, I will document the the love and joy, the laughs, the tears, and everything in-between all as your friend and biggest fan. I promise you will have images as bright and as joyful as your love!

We began working with Lauren in 2016 when she started photographing Rich and I and our three pups for holidays, our surprise engagement, and our rehearsal dinner, welcome drinks, and wedding day in August. At no surprise to us, Lauren and her second shooter were a calming presence amidst the excitement on our wedding day. She managed to be everywhere, capturing the big and subtle, candid moments we might have missed. She captured all of our shot requests with patience and grace, wrangling our rowdy wedding parties, and beautifully captured our three dogs, who were not interested in being cooperative that day. Her ability to blend into the background while simultaneously directing and capturing stunning portraits is truly impressive. As always, Lauren's photographs are nothing short of magical. Each image tells a story, evoking all the emotions and memories of that day. I always say you can immediately spot Lauren's photos, as they are always simply breathtaking. Having Lauren as our wedding photographer was a no-brainer, and I can wholeheartedly say it was one of the best decisions we made for our special day. We can't wait to continue working with Lauren and having her capture our family memories for years to come!

Meeting around 10 years ago and instantly becoming best friends, Jason and Nichole have now been married for 5 beautiful years. They share two children and when they aren't creating amazing wedding day memories for their clients they are out exploring. You can find them skiing, hiking, camping, and even traveling the country in their van when time permits!

Nichole and Jason have been nothing but professional throughout our booking process, engagement photos, and wedding weekend. All of the photos we've received so far we have been absolutely blown away with how good they are. They were great communicating to make sure our needs were met. We felt so comfortable with them and see them not only as our wedding photographer and videographer but someone my husband and I could be friends with. They were really great making sure our Indian fusion wedding was beautifully captured. I can't wait to see all of the photos but the sneak peaks were so good. They also asked questions about the ceremonies that we had to ensure they knew how best to document as well as wanting to sincerely learn more about the culture. You will not regret hiring these two. I would hire them both again in a heartbeat! This husband/wife team creates magic!
