From pre planning to the day, the staff was kind, attentive, and organized. We felt very well taken care of and our day ran so smoothly thanks to our event coordinator, Zuleika.

First of all - the end product was just beautiful. Everything from the bridal bouquet to the ceremony flowers to the table styling was exquisite and super unique. Shannon did a great job incorporating my favorite color (yellow) and a whimsical, organic wildness into the design exactly as I had hoped. From our first meeting to the written proposal, Shannon interpreted my thoughts and ideas exactly. I was so impressed that she took my ramblings and half ideas and pulled them together into what I was seeing in my head. Shannon’s GORGEOUS color palette informed the entire wedding design and gave me a jumping off point for invitations, bridesmaid dresses, other decor, etc. Unfortunately, the process of working with Shannon was a bit challenging. She struggled with nailing down details: incorrect number of tables, inconsistent accounting of candles/bud vases, etc. It took a number of incorrect proposal drafts until we got it right - just weeks before the wedding. We were honestly quite disappointed by Shannon’s flexibility and communication. She self-describes as being highly collaborative, but that was not our experience. First, as beer nerds, having hops in the design was super important to us, and while she flagged early on it could be an issue to source real ones, we discussed using fake. While we all agreed that she shouldn’t use fake hops if they looked bad, we were sad to see on the day of that they didn’t make it into the design. It would have been nice to have heard a heads up from her that she didn’t plan to use them - even if it was just a brief mention on the day-of. Second, when our cake plans fell through at the last minute, we asked Shannon if she could possibly supply a few flowers for our small 6” cutting cake. She told us she would try, but later we heard from the bakery that she had given them a flat no. She never communicated her decision to us. Thankfully, the bakery pulled something together for us (shout out to Zest Pastry!). Third, the Monday before the wedding, Shannon sent an alarming email with the subject line “Head Advisory, Oh No!”, asking us what our plan was. Getting any email titled “Oh No” isn’t fun to receive less than a week before your wedding. Further, as a trusted wedding vendor, we would hope that she would have plans for weather or unexpected events rather than looking to us during a very stressful period. Lastly, (and most disappointingly) despite having a run of day schedule, Shannon was nowhere to be found when it was time to put on boutonnieres and corsages. Our photographers and party thankfully jumped in to help to avoid major delays to portraits (shout out to Katie Slater!). Fundamentally, the product Shannon provided was beyond compare - everything was beautiful. That said, the communication, coordination, and organization were lacking from our experience.

  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Monroe, CT

Here at Tree Films, we make your story a priority. We strive to get to know our couples and how they came to be, down to the silly coincidences and weird first dates. We like to think that our mission goes beyond just documenting your wedding day -- the goal is to create an unforgettable experience! We are invested in making each video as genuine as possible, as if your story was being told by a best friend who witnessed all the important stuff. Tell us who you are as a couple and let us put together a video that tells the story from day one to I do!

When we were in the process of looking for photo/video vendors for our wedding, we knew we wanted a combined service, but we were having a hard time finding the right fit. Someone I was looking into did not have our date available, but they recommended Tree Films Creative. When I say this was the best thing that could've happened to us, I MEAN IT. Tree Films has been nothing short of amazing. I was amazed that they were even available for our date. From the very beginning, Ashley was so personable, she listened to what we wanted, she was knowledgeable, and so professional. She was our main point of contact and her and I instantly became what felt like good friends (even though I only met her via zoom calls). I asked her for help with a few things throughout the process and she never batted an eye and helped me with it all! She was very responsive; I was never waiting for a response or wondering what was going on. She always kept me in the loop. Once our big day finally arrived, Ashley and her team were at the venue before I arrived. She greeted me and I felt like I already knew her. The entire Tree Films Creative team made me, my husband, and entire bridal party comfortable and I remember having a sense of ease. I could not recommend this team enough. They went above and beyond for everything on my wedding day and beyond. At this moment, I have received photo previews, which was way more than I thought, (happily) and I cannot wait for more! I have seen the teaser film and am just blown away. I am patiently waiting to see the rest of the photos and videos and I know for a fact that they are going to be incredible. I am so happy they were the ones who captured our day for us. I can go on and on about Tree Films; they were a literal DREAM TEAM. Without a doubt, I would highly recommend!

From the very first interaction, George was incredibly professional, friendly, and attentive to our vision for the wedding day. It was clear right away that he was not only passionate about his craft but also genuinely cared about making our day as special as possible. The photos he took are absolutely stunning! George has an incredible talent for capturing the most beautiful, candid, and emotional moments—often without us even realizing. We are amazed at how he was able to preserve all the little details and big moments, from the quiet, intimate glances to the burst of laughter on the dance floor. Not only that, he had an added challenge because we held our reception at the Aquarium, and no flash photography was allowed, but you definitely could not tell - George made it work seamlessly! Every picture tells a story, and we now have a treasure trove of unforgettable memories to cherish forever. What truly stood out to us, though, was how George went above and beyond. He not only captured every essential moment but also made sure we felt comfortable, relaxed, and at ease throughout the entire day. Their positive attitude and seamless coordination with our wedding planner, vendors, and guests ensured everything flowed smoothly. He was there for every special moment, often anticipating the perfect shot before we even realized it was happening. On top of his talent and professionalism, George is just an amazing human being. He is kind, thoughtful, and respectful. We are so grateful for the beautiful work he did and for the lasting memories he’s given us.

From the very start, Lauren's communication was organized, kind, and supportive, putting us at ease throughout the entire planning process. Her attention to detail and intentional approach to capturing our special day was evident in the stunning, timeless photos we received. Lauren was able to seamlessly document every moment of our intimate ceremony, and even managed to make my husband, who hates getting his picture taken, feel comfortable and unstressed during our portrait session. We are thrilled with the final results and would highly recommend Lauren Helsing Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

Avec L’Amour

  • Videographer

  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves Monroe, CT

We are painters when it comes to film. We enjoy creating love stories that poke at the heart of emotion. There’s an art to visually piecing a love story together. We have a strong eye for detail, and focus on really diving into a couples love and expressing their emotion for one another through our lens.

Avec L'Amour captured our wedding in June of 2023. We went with Avec L'Amour because we really liked the style and felt the prices were extremely reasonable compared to some of the other videographers out there. We went with the package that included the highlight film and the feature-length film. The audio on the feature-length film is a little tough to hear because of all the background noise, but we were outdoors and in front of a lake, so it’s understandable. While planning for our wedding, we worked directly with John. He had great energy and seemed very prepared every time we interacted with him. However, we never met John in-person because the day before our wedding, he reached out saying he could no longer make it and would be sending a replacement instead. This was understandably very stressful, but fortunately the replacement he sent was awesome. We would have liked to know this update earlier if possible, however we know that’s not always possible, and this was our only complaint in working with him. When John sent us the footage of our wedding, we were so happy with it with the exception of one place where the audio didn’t match up, one place where suddenly the video went purple, and the fact that one of our best man’s speeches was completely left out of the highlight reel; we brought these concerns to John, and he fixed them with no hesitation in a timely manner. Though we can’t review John’s videography or wedding day presence directly, we did have a good experience with his company and would recommend it!

I'm Meghan Ann Imagery! I'm an artist, storyteller, and lover of love. It's fitting I ended up as a wedding photographer, right? I'm based in Connecticut but wishing for the dream inquiries that will send me to Alaska, Colorado, or some place new.

Meghan Ann Imagery LLC was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, her communication was very clear, and on a personal level she is incredibly kind and sweet to deal with. We weren't initially planning to have a photographer since this was our very small "legal" wedding and we were planning a larger destination wedding, but we're so glad we decided to book Meghan last minute. On Mother's Day, she gladly accepted the job and captured every special moment beautifully. The quality of her work was tremendous, exceeding our expectations with how fast she turned around our photos, and we now have precious memories to cherish forever. We are absolutely thrilled with the photos and cannot recommend Meghan Ann Imagery LLC highly enough.

Highest recommendation! I can’t say enough positive things about my experience with Carlos and custom made video. From the first phone call, all the way to him checking in to see if I received and enjoyed the video. Carlos was a pro who worked to find the perfect package for us and made us feel our wedding day was as important to him as it is to us. On the wedding day itself you couldn’t even tell there was a camera there recording. We always knew exactly how long it was until we received our finished product. Then the finished product was everything we could have hoped for and more. The quality of the video was insane, beautiful edits and breathtaking wedding recap. All the little details, including cocktail hour, the decorations and the memorial table were shot. They captured all the emotion, love and fun of our special day. Watching it made me feel like I was living my wedding day all over again. INVEST IN A VIDEOGRAPHER FOR YOUR WEDDING DAY! Invest in Carlos and custom made video. I can’t thank you guys enough.

Tony did a phenomenal job with our wedding! He had the crowd excited for our entrance into the reception.

He walked us through our big day during the initial meeting and kept us on track for our cake cutting, bouquet dedication, and anniversary dance. I cannot recommend Tony enough!

What obsesses me with photography the most is that I get to capture a moment in time that we all can recall back to. This can be a simple photo with a friend or an intimate moment with a loved one. All these moments hold a special place in all of us. This is what your wedding day is supposed to be about. A day filled with the memories of all your loved ones as you celebrate the start of a new journey together. A day filled with laughter, cheers, and tears and I want to be there to capture it all! If are planning a wedding, elopement, or engagement, please feel free to browse my work and if it resonates with you don't hesitate to reach out!

We got married exactly one year ago today – and what a day it was, perfectly captured by Kevin! We had a large wedding party and family, and Kevin wrangled them so well, while everyone was having so much fun. We ended up with a library of absolutely gorgeous photos, including a variety of backdrops, groups of people, and moments. Kevin allowed us to shoot portraits at so many different locations that were important to us (we got married at the college where we met), all the while sticking to our schedule. From our engagement shoot, to our getting-ready photos, the ceremony to the dancing at the end, Kevin captured so much love and beauty that filled our engagement and wedding. We cannot recommend K&R photos more to trust with photographing your most special day. Thank you so much, Kevin!

Where to begin? Hiring Emily was easily the best investment for our wedding. We had a 160 person event and hired Luna and Charlie for the “month-of” wedding management package starting 8 weeks ahead of the event. Emily and her team made the entire planning process so much easier through their event-planning expertise, creativity, quick responsiveness, and attention to detail. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, Emily took a tremendous amount of stress off of us by providing constant communication and support. I personally am an extremely organized and detail-oriented perfectionist, and Emily was not only incredibly patient with all of my emails and what-ifs and micro-decisions, but she blew me away with her top-notch organizational skills. It really allowed me to relax knowing I was in good hands. On the wedding day itself, Emily and her team were amazing and couldn’t have been more helpful in ensuring the day went smoothly, even with bad weather requiring us to pivot some of our plans. Emily’s help allowed us to be guests at our own party and truly enjoy - she went above and beyond. Every single aspect of wedding planning was less stressful thanks to Emily, and I genuinely credit Emily for single-handedly preserving my mental health. We couldn’t be more grateful for Emily and her team and strongly suggest hiring Luna and Charlie for your next event! Hiring Emily is not only a smart decision for planning a successful and gorgeous event, but it’s also self care!!!

As a wedding photographer with many years of experience, I have come to appreciate the beauty of genuine moments and the power of the little details. They provide a timeless and elegant look that truly captures the essence of a wedding day. I am based in New England, but I travel often for weddings! Some of my favorite places to shoot are the beaches and the city of Newport, RI. There is nothing like the White Mountains in New Hampshire. The old cobblestone roads of Boston and the skyline of NYC. Charleston, SC is somewhere I would like to call home one day but for now traveling there for weddings and engagements might be my favorite.

Andrea she made my day run so smoothly! She made everyone in my wedding party so comfortable. I was able to take golden hour photos and actually enjoy my cocktail hour. Andrea also sends you a sneak peak within a couple of days so you get some bomb photos quickly while you wait on your gallery. Her assistant Justine was so fun too and kept all the groomsman in line. She really payed attention to mine and my husbands personalities and was able to really capture us through the lens. I didn’t get a videographer for my wedding and I don’t regret it one bit. I feel like she captured our day through photos.

I am a photographer and storyteller. For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by stories and traditions. I am passionate about documenting real human connections and I love learning all the meanings behind details at weddings and celebrations. When I’m not photographing, I can be found spending time with family and friends, exploring new places, and craving tacos. I love meeting new people, making new friends, and connecting with my clients. I can’t wait to get to know you, so let’s talk!

We worked with Beth as our wedding photographer and I 100% would recommend her services! Since we had a very small wedding, we opted to do a post-wedding shoot rather than engagement shoot. This meant that we met Beth for the first time during our actual wedding day-- some would probably be nervous about this, but we got to know each other right away and were so comfortable working with her. She was so professional and really scoped out the sights all over our beautiful venue so that we were able to take so many different pictures in a variety of settings. For our post-wedding shoot, we did pictures at Chick Fila & the beach, and even though I was nervous about going inside the Chick Fila to take pictures, Beth was super professional and all business and had no qualms about taking pictures in busy places. We also got all of our pictures in only a few weeks and the quality is superb! Overall, we got a fantastic value for a very reasonable price and I am so glad we booked Beth as our wedding photographer!
