Revolution Summer Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,375
  • Serves Manchester, ME

Nostalgia drove me into photography at an early age - and lead me into my studies of photojournalism. We all innately know when we're at a critical juncture in our lives. For me, being able to authentically capture, to preserve those moments in a photograph is such a privilege. I know how much it means to me to be able to look back and say 'this is how things actually happened.' There is beauty in those truths. The kind of folks I work with share that appreciation.

Awarded Best of Zola
We picked Corey because we wanted someone with experience in taking candid, authentic photos of us and our guests celebrating, and he delivered in spades. From the outset he was accommodating, responsive, and offered guidance to make sure we had all our bases covered beforehand. On the day of, he fell right in with the rest of the guests, cracking jokes and making everyone feel relaxed and comfortable as he captured us getting ready. His skill at posed shots was just as excellent when it came time for the family photos, and he got through them in record time so that we could all head over to cocktail hour and get to the fun part. As for the photos themselves, they were phenomenal! I wasn't sure any photo could capture the beauty and fun that all of us were experiencing, but he proved me wrong. We're so happy with the candid style, showing everyone's genuine smiles, laughs, and tears of joy. Corey also got us the completed online album blazingly fast, in just a couple of weeks; way earlier than expected. He even curated a slideshow of his highlights of the wedding. We, our friends, and our families have all loved poring over the whole album, and will treasure it for many years to come. Thanks again - we hope neither of us ever need to get married again, but if we do, we'll know who to call! Thanks, Loren & Kirsten

Awarded Best of Zola
NOT YOUR AVERAGE FLORIST/ FLORAL ARTIST Beyond blown away by the florals Stacy prepared for our spring wedding. From meeting with her and her daughter at her picturesque farm in Belmont to the day of the wedding - She went above and beyond creating everything from stunning ceremony installations to flowing centerpieces that differed from table to table. I can say hands down our florals are what made our wedding so visually striking. She doesn't miss a beat, drawing inspiration from the bride and grooms ensembles and color palette - she nailed the aesthetic we were hoping for. In fact, we loved the flowers so much - I collected every flower she utilized to take home to dry and preserve. I cannot wait to share the photos our photographer got of her work with her and her team. We truly cannot thank you enough - you are an incredibly talented artist and we will remember the beauty of our special day forever 3

Peter Logue Photography

  • Photographer

  • Serves Manchester, ME

I take an authentic and cinematic approach to wedding photography. I love to watch life unfold and seek to capture the quiet moments of the day; the moments that slip past in an instant but are the ones that you want to remember forever. I am passionate about creating timeless and lasting photographs for you and your family.

Peter is the best!!! We first met Peter while he was shooting a promotional video for Medomak Family Camp in Washington, Maine, and that video was gorgeous, so when we needed a photographer for our elopement in Acadia, Peter was the obvious choice. My husband and I had never taken professional pictures before, but Peter made us feel so comfortable and at ease through the whole process. He guided us through each location and pose suggestion like he had a great vision, and when we got the pictures back, we knew he definitely did! Our pictures were beautifully and skillfully edited and we will cherish them literally forever. Thank you, Peter!!!

Flowers by Hoboken

  • Florist
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Manchester, ME

I have a Bachelor of Science Degree from the University of Maine in Business and Marketing and have worked in the floral/ horticulture industry for 30 years. Flowers have always been my passion and bringing someone’s vision to life is of utmost importance. Event design and execution is my strong point. Our team of creative floral designers work closely with the me and the couple to create your floral concept and overall vision.

can’t recommend Flowers by Hoboken enough for all your flower needs. I got married in August 2024 in Bar Harbor, ME and choosing Flowers by Hoboken was one of the easiest decisions. Lisa made the process so easy and enjoyable. She looked at my inspiration through Pinterest, Instagram, and her own previous clients and put together a unique and beautifully thought out proposal. I ended up adding more flowers last minute and Lisa made it very easy to do so. She also sourced a lot of our flowers locally which was really special. Our flowers were better than we could have ever imagined. It was such a pleasure working with Lisa and her team for our wedding flowers and I would recommend them over and over again.

The 1812 Farm

Bristol, ME
  • Venue
  • Up to 130 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $7,000

The 1812 Farm is a year round setting for your event. Our unique mix of historic setting and unmatched level of catering quality, elegant surroundings and appointments appeals to the most discerning taste

Why you'll love this venue

  • Has a dance floor to dance the night away
  • Natural elegance with open spaces
  • Dressing room available

Venue considerations

  • No on-premises lodging options
  • Not for you if you're looking for a sleek and contemporary space
We are so happy we chose The 1812 Farm for our special day and would heartily and readily suggest it to anyone looking for a venue. I literally cannot sing their praises enough for how perfect they helped make our day. The 1812 Farm was the perfect venue for our July 2024 Wedding and we could not be happier with the experience we had working with Sarah, Olivia, and the larger team. The 1812's team is not only super responsive, but extremely helpful as a sounding board. Any questions we had were answered promptly, any ideas we wanted to float were approached thoughtfully, and this team truly lessened any kind of wedding planning stress. As for the venue itself, it was gorgeous. The flowers were in bloom in the garden where we had our ceremony and the inner venue where we had our reception was so well put together. The 1812 team set all my decorations up for me after I provided an example of what I was going for and that immediately lessened any day-of stress that morning. Both my husband's half of the party and my own had plenty of space to get ready separately in the Bristol Suite on site too, which was perfect. Having prep in the same place as ceremony and reception just streamlined our entire day. I also love that even when the lights were dimmed inside later in the night for dancing, there was still plenty of light to see and talk by and our guests adored the outdoor bar and thought it was super cute. The 1812 also uses Stone Cove Catering and we loved the ease of building out the menu with the same people we already were in contact with for the venue. It made everything so smooth and we knew there would be no confusion or fuss as meals were served because the caterers are the venue and know the routine and space. Once the party actually started after dinner, I had multiple guests come up to me to rave about how good dinner and cocktail hour apps were- literally so good that multiple people made comments about it right after eating. Can't ask for better than that. And my husband and I were beyond happy with our own meal and the post-ceremony oyster treat that Stone Cove Catering helped us plan for ourselves. If I were planning this wedding all over, I'd still pick the 1812!

Their warm hospitality and attentive support throughout the entire weekend, as well as in the lead-up to our wedding, made everything so much easier and more enjoyable. One of the standout features of Meadow Ridge Farm was the opportunity for our wedding party to stay on-site for the entire weekend. This not only added to the convenience but also allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the celebration and enjoy every moment with our loved ones. The venue itself was the perfect backdrop for our wedding. Its charm and beauty were exactly what we envisioned for our special day.

TDR photography (Traci) was nothing short of a perfect photographer. Not only was her work absolutely beautiful, but her heart and passion for photography and her clients made our wedding experience even more special having her as our photographer. Not only was she our photographer, but I can also say she is a friend. She cares deeply for her clients and their wants/needs, and goes above and beyond to assure the wedding day is nothing short of perfect. She does far more than take pictures, but provides emotional support and is your personal cheerleader throughout the wedding planning process. I can't recommend Traci enough and will use her as our lifetime photographer, as well as a friend. Her work was beautiful and she had my photos back to me within three weeks. She also provided sneak peeks within 24 hours. She captured every picture on my shot list and more.

I cannot say enough about this incredible venue. From the beautiful property, to the attentive and friendly staff, Newagen made our entire wedding weekend smooth and seamless. Newagen offers all the charm of a small quaint Maine Inn with the delivery and professionalism of a large well run venue. Maura was amazing and responsive with the booking of the venue and sales process. She was so responsive in answering all my questions and helping us navigate putting the weekend structure together. The reins were smoothly handed over to Tiffany as the weekend got closer and she ensured everything ran smoothly through the weekend. We held a lobster bake Friday evening, ceremony and reception Saturday and a farewell breakfast Sunday morning. Every single aspect was flawless. Tiffany and her team kept things running on time, making sure everything I brought (decorations and the like) was put out so that my husband and I could just spend time with friends and family. It felt that every time I had a concern or a question, I could ask Tiffany and she'd have already thought of it/handled it. I truly cannot say enough about how amazing the staff was. From the front desk staff, managers, coordinators to the waiters, everyone made us and our guests feel at home, taken care of and special. My husband and I will definitely be returning to celebrate anniversaries and will recommend this venue to anyone. The property has so much to offer guests (pool, pickle ball, sunset path) and is not far from the cute downtown harbor and local sites like the coastal Maine botanical gardens. The chef was fantastic and the food was delicious. Highly recommend going to their pub for a bite if you are in the area and are considering this venue.

Every Other Sunday is a versatile, nine-piece dance band from Maine. Specializing in wedding receptions and other functions. We pride ourselves on providing just the right mix of music to keep your guests entertained and dancing all night long. We can also provide traditional or modern ceremony and cocktail hour music. We customize each set with the perfect blend of rock, pop, funk, country and more. We also bring along our professional sound man to make sure the music is always at the perfect level. Want to chat over the music during cocktail hour but dance to some rockin' tunes during the reception? We've got you covered!

We recommend Every Other Sunday without hesitation. Tori and Mike performed as a duo during our ceremony and cocktail hour, learning specific songs for our ceremony. They sang so beautifully during our processional and recessional that there was not a dry eye in the house! Then the band grew to six members for our first dances, and the band learned two songs for those - perfectly executed. For the after dinner portion of our celebration, the band rocked out to variety of contemporary and classic dance tunes. They had the whole place jumping – literally, some of our guests were swinging from the beams…everyone had so much fun! Every Other Sunday is an extremely talented and versatile wedding band. Mike and Tori were easygoing and flexible yet very responsive to our email communications. They arrived super early the day of our wedding to get set up and everything they did was executed flawlessly. On a scale of one to 10, we give them a 10! You will be making a big mistake if you don’t consider Every Other Sunday for your wedding or special event. - Matt and Lou

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 

4.8

  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Manchester, ME

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Awarded Best of Zola
I ordered the "peaches and cream" small package. We decided to skip on ceremony florals, and only have handhelds and bud vases at the reception. We did buy a few more flowers from the grocery to add more peach once the flowers arrived. We made and medium sized bridal bouquet, 4 bridesmaids bouquets, 3 corsages, and 7 bouts. (With lots of flowers left over). My bridesmaids and I did the arranging the morning before the wedding; it was fun, and a great start to the weekend. None of us had experience, but it all turned out great! If you or your bridal party are mildly crafty, I'd highly recommend it!

We decided at the last minute we wanted a wedding video to remember our day, and I’m so glad we made this choice! Drew was brilliant to work with and really fun to have around on the day. He is a total pro and somehow captured our wedding day perfectly, without us ever really getting the sense we were being filmed?! Highly recommend. PS here’s the only photo I found from our wedding with Drew actually in it. Which just goes to show, he really does hide on the day so your photos aren’t affected!

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving and laughing. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I got you!

Lacie was absolutely phenomenal to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. From the moment we jumped on a phone call to see if they were a right fit, I knew they would be. Her enthusiasm, understanding, outgoing way that she relates to people is an energy that you want on your big day. Our engagement session was incredible, she moves so quickly but efficiently, as to ensure you get all the shots you want, but is very mindful of time. Our wedding day was COMPLETE because of Lacie. In addition to her positive attitude, she helped smooth the timeline of events during the day when exterior factors were impacting the photography, and problem solved so wonderfully on the spot. She stepped in to help in moments that were above and beyond what we hired her for, and for that I am truly grateful. Her photography style is versatile and beautiful, specifically catered to your preference. I can't imagine a better photographer for our wedding and we are so grateful!

My husband and I LOVED working with Ali for our wedding at the Picnic House in Prospect Park! She was responsive to all of our questions and quick to answer calls and emails. On the day, she put everyone at ease and corralled everyone to get through the family portraits quickly. She totally captured our vision for the day and we're so happy with how our photos came out! We absolutely recommend working with Ali for your special day.

Believe it or not, we often have people ask if our pictures throughout our website are showing a mix of fresh and faux and…no they aren’t! Although fresh florals are pretty, we are totally in love with poser-blooms all the way here and that’s what we design 100% of our orders with.

Awarded Best of Zola
The Faux Bouquets were an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Their communication was quick and simple, and they were always responsive to any questions or requests we had. The quality of their work was truly high quality and gorgeous - the bouquets, boutonnières, and beautiful floral arrangements they created for our arch were stunning and exceeded our expectations. They worked closely with us to achieve the exact look and feel we wanted for our wedding florals. The Faux Bouquets are amazing and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for beautiful, top-notch floral pieces for their special day!

With over 20+ years of photography experience, capturing life's smallest and biggest moments has been a passion of mine. Being able to encapsulate these candid moments is such a privilege; one that we don't take lightly!

From start to finish Jenn was incredibly professional and easy to deal with. She helped me plan an engagement shoot that, because of its nature, had to be mostly spontaneous and "on-the-fly". She was easily able to adapt and capture our special moment with some INCREDIBLE photographs. We even started receiving some photos the following day! I would not hesitate for a second to recommend Jenn and Symula Media Group to anyone looking for documentation of their special moment!

Kameron was amazing! She captured elegant, beautiful photos of my now wife and I. She worked with me to create an amazing surprise for my partner, and we loved getting to work with her. She is an expert in her craft. All pictures turned out great, and was such a great deal on pricing as well. If you need a photographer for a wedding we would both definitely recommend her!

Besides designing for you, I also offer DIY Wood Flower Experiences to create your wedding florals alongside me in person or virtually and 1:1 sessions to help DIY brides learn to do it themselves.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jen is incredible and worth every penny! My husband and I weren't very sure about how we wanted our wedding florals to look. We also didn't want to spend thousands of dollars on flowers that would only last a day. We stumbled upon wood flowers and discovered Wood and Word Blooms! Working with Jen was wonderful and seamless. She helps you every step of the way to figure out what you would like. The DIY class was so much fun, and we were able to build all of our centerpieces, boutonnières, and bouquets. Jen also built my cascade bouquet and beautiful garland for us! Everything came out so beautifully and was perfect for our day. Thank you Jen!

I'm a Vermont-based Wedding Videographer who loves to travel extensively across New England and beyond to capture weddings. With a discreet approach, I focus on candid moments and unique memories, ensuring you have timeless footage to cherish for years to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot believe we were ever considering not having a videographer after the amazing experience and video we got with Amanda at EightZero2. From the beginning, Amanda was super responsive and open with her thoughts on what would work best for our day (drone footage, raw footage, etc.). The day of, her process was so smooth and seamless - we felt so comfortable around her and she vibed PERFECTLY with our photo team. She got our preview video out to us before we even landed for our honeymoon, and delivered absolutely amazing results. The drone footage added the absolute coolest panoramics, and the editing was perfect (she even reached out to ask if we wanted anything changed after the fact). Would (and already have) highly recommend Amanda to anyone getting married. You will not regret it!

Justin McCallum Photography

  • Serves Manchester, ME

Hi! I’m Justin (he/him) and I’m here to affirm your love, make you feel like a fucking rockstar, and dance like a total fool. Oh, and take so many gorgeous photos of y’all. Obvs. My style blends both documentary photojournalism and fine art photography: coaching folks who are shy in front of the camera, then stepping back to capture authentic moments uninterrupted. I’ve been lucky enough to have my work published by A Practical Wedding, The New York Times, GLAMOUR, People Magazine and many other fabulous outlets. I'm a stereotypical Capricorn that loves drag shows, campy horror films, every dog I meet, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

Awarded Best of Zola
As someone who's been in the wedding industry for almost a decade, it can be challenging to find other vendors who are aligned with my business mission of inclusion and community, embraces creativity, and is a joy to hang out with. And Justin literally checks every box. He's a leader in the industry- everywhere I look I see him turning up, making space for people, encouraging and lifting them up. He's the real deal, and has the biggest heart. I happily consider Justin as more than just a "friendor," but someone who makes my life (and the world) brighter.
