PK And The Mighty Seven 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Newton Center, MA

PK and the Mighty Seven has been celebrating with newly married couples since 2016! We were originally formed as a Jamiroquai tribute band, playing mostly music by the famed UK group along with other songs we enjoyed. Since that time, we've expanded our song list and played many weddings, which we love to do!

Awarded Best of Zola
Let me start by saying that we are not the type to write reviews for anybody - good or bad - but for the sake of future individuals/couples looking to book PK and the Mighty Seven we feel obligated to say that if you are looking for a band to entertain whatever party you are hosting you MUST choose PK and the Mighty Seven. To start, Matt was incredibly communicative and responsive during the initial planning stages, promptly responding to e-mails and joining several Zoom calls leading up to our event. We had a vision for our special day and they accommodated each and every one of our requests. On the day of they arrived early and did the necessary prep work to ensure they were fully situated to provide our guests with the night of a lifetime. They took special care to accommodate our unusual first dance request, song recommendations, and the ambiance we sought to instill. We had a wide array of guests and the overwhelmingly consistent feedback we received was that the band was AMAZING. No exaggeration - the majority of our guests said they were the best band they'd ever experienced. If you are getting married or have a special event in their area you will be doing yourselves an immense disservice not to hire them to make your evening as spectacular as you want it to be.

Alexis was absolutely amazing. She was extremely professional, her photography speaks for itself. She is also an absolute peach to work with, she is so fun and filled with energy. My bridal party loved her and all my guest adored her. She was all over the place following my husband and I. She sent me sneak peaks shortly after my wedding and every pic I swiped through would be even better than the last. I couldn’t be more happy with how they came out. She did such a wonderful job, I get countless compliments on my pictures. I would highly recommend her for any photo opportunity you need. I would rate her 6 stars if I could!

Hi, my name is Antonia! I am a bubbly and passionate freelance makeup artist based out of Massachusetts (Don’t worry, I travel all over New England for my services). With over many years of experience for special occasion makeup application, I decided to take it to the next step and specialize in my favorite makeup, bridal glam! My priority is to help people feel confident and beautiful through the power of makeup. When I am not creating looks, I’m either playing with new techniques, exploring the latest trends or spending time with my loved ones.

Being able to have Antonia do my make up was easy and so comfortable. I wasn't prepared with any of my own make up and being a Black Woman I was worried there wouldn't be the right colors. Antonia blended up some foundation and got an exact color match! I also HATE false lashes, BUT she put them on with such ease I couldn't even tell I was wearing them! Professionalism was glamorous just like my make up! Highly recommend and would book again! 100/10

Hiring Randy as our photographer was one of the best choices we made for our wedding. Our wedding was originally scheduled for April 2020, and he graciously stuck with us through several postponements. His photographs are beautiful, and we love his style. He was also a very easygoing, calm presence during a stressful day. Wayne (the second photographer) was fantastic as well. It was great to have a photographer who knew our venue (Saltwater) well.

I cannot recommend A Natural Arrangement, Florist enough for your wedding flowers and decor.

When I saw the exquisite final arrangements on our wedding day, I was blown away by the attention to detail and extra special touches they she added.

During our wedding day she was so sweet and was able to capture all the moments that we requested along with working well with our photographer and other vendors. We would recommend anyone to Katie who is looking for a great value and options with your video as she offers many of them and allows the opportunity to customize what you're looking for.

I've never worked with a DJ as good as Drew and his crew. Drew had sent me an email a few weeks before the couples wedding with the reception timeline (a first) and kept me up-to-date with any last minute changes the day of. It is clear by working with Drew how much he loves his job and how much he cares about the couples he works with. He got the crowd going, the dance floor was always packed and he invited the couple up to DJ booth which was so fun for them and also amazing for pictures.

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 huge 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.

Jenn Plante Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style

  • Serves Newton Center, MA

Jenn Plante Photography has been capturing beautiful moments since 2019. Jenn’s passion for photography began in high school and continues to drive her today. Her work focuses on fun, colorful, and joyful photos.

We loved working with Jenn for our engagement and wedding photos! We were a little nervous at first, especially as we've never really had professional photos taken, but Jenn made everything so easy and made us so comfortable. Overall, she is just an absolute professional and knows exactly what to do. She did a great job managing our timeline and shot list and provided very clear directions with group photos so everyone knew exactly what to do. The photos themselves came out so beautiful and were above what we had envisioned. She did an amazing job capturing our day, our friends and family, and was even so flexible on the day off when we wanted specific photos by the lake we didn't realize we wanted until then. She did an awesome job taking advantage of our venue and the scenery. We also got sneak peek photos back within 48 hours, which was so incredible to view while on our honeymoon! Highly recommend Jenn, we couldn't have had our wedding day without her!

Keepsakes by Katie

  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $1,820
  • Serves Newton Center, MA
  • Offer

Hey there! Katie here. I'm a scenic artist for theater by day and a videographer by night(s and weekends)! Keepsakes by Katie originally started as a nameless passion project to film a home-movie-style cross-country road trip with friends back in 2017. I found myself most interested in filming my friends as they were, and that's the same approach I've taken to my wedding films - candid storytelling, capturing real moments of your day in real time.

Katie was a total dream to work with as the videographer for our wedding! Starting from our first conversations, she was a lovely collaborator, asking great questions, getting the sense of what we wanted stylistically for our video, and always approaching with compassion and care. We love the final film SO MUCH, as well as the highlight reel!! We watched the film back on our anniversary and felt transported back to that day—she beautifully captured the ceremony, speeches, details of the day, and moments with guests we’d have otherwise missed. We will cherish Katie’s work forever!! Highly recommend working with Katie to capture the magic of the day!

Venue considerations

  • Not wheelchair accessible

  • Best for events with big guest lists
Awarded Best of Zola
We loved our experience planning/hosting a wedding cereomony and reception at the Armory. The staff were great to work with and the whole event went off without a hitch! The space was beautiful with lighting and decorations. One of the biggest advantages is that the Armory doesn't restrict which caterer you can work with. Many of the other venues we looked at had exclusive contracts with caterers that were many-fold more expensive than the one we ultimately used. Physically, the space we rented is a large performance hall with a stage on one side and a mezzanine on the other. Both are big open hardwood-floor spaces. The space is kind of dark, but looks great with adequate lighting and decorations. The Armory offers some string-lights and up-lights for free, and we also hired a lighting company to add additional lights. We also rented some plants. We had the ceremony on the main floor, then a cocktail hour on the mezzanine during which the catering staff flipped the main floor (we had 140 guests and they all fit comfortably). A live band performed on the stage and the caterer prepped in the backstage area. There is no kitchen so the caterer had to prepare all the food ahead of time offsite. One drawback is that the Armory doesn't allow hard alcohol to be served. Some other pros are that there's a parking lot and a new hotel that opened nearby. Overall, we would highly recommend the Armory, especially if you are willing to mix and match vendors and aren't expecting wrap-around service from a place that does weddings all the time.

Hey there! This is Amy. I am an engineer by day and photographer by night (and weekends). I am always looking for new opportunities to take more pictures, especially in awesome new locations. Reach out to discuss your next photoshoot, whether that is in Boston or on a far away mountaintop!

Awarded Best of Zola
Amy is a gem to work with! She is flexible with our unusual wedding schedule and was communicative the entire time. One of the things that really made us decide on picking Amy was her way of editing photos. She keeps the photos true to color but more enhanced and higher quality. It still looks very bridal and clean but without the weird tinted filter that many other photographers use. Highly recommend Amy and her team for all types of photography needs!!

From the moment I booked my appointment with Beautiful Faces by Janis, I knew I was in good hands! Janis and her team were incredibly friendly, kind, and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. On the day of my wedding, Janis and her assistant Sue Ellen went above and beyond, we even had a special moment where they helped me get into my dress when we were running behind schedule. And Sue Ellen was a GENIUS with the corset lace and saved the day by lacing me up! Their patience and attention to detail were truly amazing. Janis brought such warmth and laughter to my wedding party, she is such a character that went out of her way to make you feel like family to her.

Hi there! I'm Nia, a wedding and elopement photographer based in Boston, MA but obsessed with traveling. I love the days when I stumble upon a new landscape, learn something new from a stranger or aimlessly drive until I end up somewhere decent. This is why I love storytelling. My favorite stories to tell are by far the love shared between two people. Storytelling and making a moment last is what drew me to photography. Documenting your day in an honest, soulful way that shows who you are is what I strive for.

Awarded Best of Zola
We recently had the pleasure of working with Nia for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. From the moment we met her, her easy-going nature put us at ease. She made us feel comfortable and genuinely connected with us. We are both somewhat camera shy and she made the entire process from our engagement photos to our wedding SO fun. We wanted our event captured candidly and she truly did that. The turnaround time for our sneak peak photos was impressively fast and they exceeded our expectations. Each photo beautifully captured the emotions of the day, and we loved that they felt authentic and true to us. If you're looking for a photographer who is personable, communicative, and delivers stunning work, we wholeheartedly recommend Nia.

Sweet Mazie's Baked Goods

  • Cakes & desserts
  • Starts at $300
  • Serves Newton Center, MA

For as long as I can remember, I've loved being in the kitchen, and have been told that I remind people of my grandma, Mazie, who passed from cancer when my dad was young. While I've spent more hours than most in the kitchen (often at odd hours), my career led me in another direction. However, I've repeatedly been told "you should open a bakery!" Through years of education, baking has been my therapy, and brought happiness to my colleagues' stomaches as well. After being diagnosed with cancer at a young age myself, I've realized the importance of pursuing your passions, and with the support of my family, I pursued baking as a second job.

Awarded Best of Zola
We LOVED Sweet Mazie’s creation - the cake was the perfect beautiful and delicious addition to our wedding. Nicole is an artist! Highly recommend! Can’t wait to work with her again!

We had the pleasure of working with Catalina for our September 2024 wedding. We started our wedding planning a little less than one year out from our wedding. We were immediately drawn to working with Catalina from our Meet & Greet where it was very clear from our conversation that her way of working and design vision was exactly what we were looking for. Her process is very detailed and organized with regular touchpoints along the way. We really appreciated her flexibility to meet on when it was convenient for our schedule. Our vision was brought to life in the design planning meetings, and she found us the perfect team of vendors for our day. Her day-of coordination made the event completely stress free for us. In the end, our wedding was beyond our wildest dreams, with both the ceremony and reception WAY exceeding our expectations. Thank you so much, Catalina, for helping make our wedding the perfect day!

Vibeology IA

  • DJ
  • Serves Newton Center, MA

Music is a lifeblood of life's journey: a universal language that invokes emotion and creates memories; and when thoughtfully and passionately curated into a soundtrack, custom-tailored to specifications, preferences and tastes, the outcome is truly magical, noteworthy, and filled with joy, sentiment, and connection. For over 30 years, DJ Denise LaCarubba | Vibeology IA has aligned with clients to create and present soundtracks for weddings, fashion shows, fundraisers, corporate, international and private events.

Denise is amazing! During our DJ search for our wedding, my (now) husband and I came across Denise very early in our search. And I’m so happy that we did! Faced with the fact that we needed to find someone who would get (and keep) both of our dance-happy families on the dance floor, it was daunting to find the perfect fit for us and for the celebration to follow. We had to rely heavily on reviews to narrow down our search…but that only gets you so far when you want to feel the energy. In a leap of faith, we reached out to Denise. After that first meeting, we never looked back! It was easy to just spend time talking to Denise. She was our hype-lady from day one, working with our schedules from planning to the meticulous execution of the wedding day. She was patient with our indecisiveness on which instrumental version of our procession song we wanted (weeks of samples, back and forth, and for us to ultimately pick the first version she shared). As a planner, I very much appreciated Denise’s attention to detail. She combed through every detail with us well beforehand, so that she didn’t have any questions the day of the wedding. I cannot recommend this Lady DJ enough! She helped make our day so special and effortlessly kept people on the dance floor until the lights came on.
