I am SO excited that you stumbled upon my work! I shoot weddings all across the Florida & New England! Capturing raw, true emotions as they happen is what I’m all about. I want to capture it all on your big day. From the moments of you putting your dress to the tears running down your face as you read your vows to each other. To the first kiss and “OMG you’re my spouse now!!” feels. To the unexpected Taco Bell run you make after the ceremony or your grandparents getting down on the dance floor. Being able to grab the moments for you to hold to forever, is such a rewarding humbling job for me.

Awarded Best of Zola
I've had the pleasure of having Gloria Bloise as my wedding photographer, and I can't recommend her enough. She was quick to reply to emails and text messages. The quality of her work is top-notch as well. I love my wedding pictures, and Gloria did a great job at understanding exactly what I wanted. She was also very patient throughout the day, which is so valuable. Gloria is truly great at what she does - she even made sure to get a picture of us eating pizza, which was a special request of mine. If you're looking for a talented and reliable wedding photographer, I highly suggest booking Gloria Bloise Photography.

Erika was our day of coordinator! She was absolutely amazing from the start I met her through referrals on FB, to the meet up to go over all the details, to the venue visit, to the rehearsal dinner, and finally the wedding day! She jumped into action right away and was always so joyful and happy to be around-which is the type of person you want to work with! She set up the entire barn while everyone was getting ready. We didn’t have to do one thing besides hand over all the decor we wanted in the barn. It made the morning less stressful knowing we had here setting up! She’s amazing!

The Portsmouth Gas Light Co building was constructed in 1837, it was the home of the city's first utility company and is located the heart of downtown Portsmouth. We can accommodate groups from 25 to 200 guests in our stylish private event space.

Finding the perfect spot for our rehearsal dinner felt like searching for a hidden gem. We needed a venue that could comfortably hold 150 guests, offered a delicious menu, and had a charming atmosphere. Thankfully, our hunt led us to Portsmouth Gas Light's 3rd floor! From the moment we stepped into this beautiful downtown building (conveniently close to a parking garage!), we knew it was special. But what truly made the night unforgettable was Michelle, the Function Manager. Michelle was an absolute rockstar! She helped us navigate everything with ease, from handling dietary restrictions to selecting the perfect menu options and ensuring all our needs were met. The entire function team was professional and attentive, making the whole evening flow seamlessly. And let's not forget the food! It was incredible. Our guests raved about everything they tried. We highly recommend Portsmouth Gas Light for any event. If you're looking for a place with charm, delicious food, and amazing staff, look no further!

Cisco Brewers Portsmouth is a wedding venue located in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The event space provides fresh, top-quality brews and a picturesque setting for your special day. A laid-back, contemporary atmosphere and flexible spaces ensure an event you and your guests will remember for a lifetime.

My husband and I aren't even sure how to quite put our happiness and appreciation for Cisco Brewers into words! Every aspect of our wedding was absolutely perfect. The communication was seamless, from start to finish. The included setup and breakdown of the wedding was AMAZING, but the added attention to detail and little finishing touches really made the night. Brielle was great from our first venue tour, all the way through the end of the wedding night- she always made sure we had no stress, was extremely tactful and sweet in dealing with guests, and made sure we had the night of our lives. Every other staff member we met was equally as amazing! We were lucky with the weather to hold our entire wedding and reception outdoors, but knowing the indoor Alemaker's Hall was a backup made us feel even more confident with our decision. Our guests continue to reach out to us to tell us how great of a time they had, and how beautiful everything was!

Moffatt-Ladd House & Garden 
Portsmouth, NH
  • Venue
  • Up to 60 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,500

The Moffatt-Ladd House was built between 1760 and 1763 for the only son of John Moffatt, one of the wealthiest men in the colony of New Hampshire prior to the Revolution. Samuel and Sarah Catherine Moffatt were the first to live in the house and they took up residence shortly after their wedding in February 1764. They would be the beginning of almost 150 years of the same family living in the stately home on Fore Street (now Market Street), overlooking the Piscataqua River. The Garden was laid out in its present form by Alexander Hamilton Ladd in the late nineteenth century. His daily records reveal that he obtained plants from the gardens of his mother and grandmother and that he was an enthusiastic bulb gardener. A 300-foot axis path flanked by formal gardens leads from the house up four terraces to a wrought-iron gate at the rear boundary. Grass steps lead to the upper flower beds.

Choosing them was the best decision we made, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for a professional and talented videographer!

We had our wedding at The Red Barn this past May and everything was beyond perfect! Our wedding coordinator, Alex was so on top of everything during the planning stages and throughout the wedding itself. She is so incredible and we feel so lucky to have worked with her! The entire staff at The Red Barn was so amazing as well. The space is stunning and the food and drinks were incredible. We truly cannot say enough good things about The Red Barn! We had our reception and ceremony indoors and the fireplace backdrop was absolutely perfect. The space itself is beautiful and we really didn’t feel that we needed to do a ton of decorating which lessened stress and saved us on decor costs. However, all we really had to do was drop off what decorations we did have and Alex and her team took care of set up and breakdown with our vendors. We really didn’t have a single worry the weekend of the wedding. The amazing staff at The Red Barn took care of it all. We also stayed at Stage House Inn the weekend of the wedding and got ready there. Darien was a pleasure to work with and made coordinating room blocks so easy! The bridal suite comfortably fit all the girls getting ready (12 total people) plus 4 hair and makeup girls. It was also the perfect room for getting ready photos! We held our rehearsal lunch at The Links restaurant and the staff was so accommodating! We had a last minute reservation for around 25 and they took us no problem. Excellent and affordable food and drinks! Overall we had a perfect experience with every aspect of The Red Barn. We absolutely would recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect spot for their wedding!

I'd say my photography style would be something along the lines of "lifestyle photography". [That means that posing you in silly ways that seem fake / awkward isn't really my jam.] I mean, unless that gets some snuggles & laughs. I'm ALLLL about that. I like to capture REAL life with REAL emotions and REAL smiles. Your session should be relaxed and fun. [All while I get some kick-ass photos!] I will most likely make a giant fool of myself at your session, so you'll feel like a professional. I sing, trip, laugh, make noises, mention inappropriate things, show my nerdiness. AKA YOU'RE GOING TO DO JUST FINE.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had our vow renewal photos and our vow renewal save the date photos captured by Alba Lumos Photography. From the moment we first spoke with April and Jordan, who are the owners of Alba Lumos Photography, we were impressed by their open, honest, and professional communication style. They made us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. They were so lighthearted and allowed us to have fun and be our true selves. From our first phone call with them, we knew they were the ones we wanted to photograph our big day, as their style and personalities meshed so well with us. Their work was efficient on our day, photos were received back so quickly, and were breathtakingly beautiful. April and Jordan did the best job at capturing all the most sentimental moments of our special day. April and Jordan were the absolute best to work with - they made us feel like the only people in the world and got incredible photos that we will cherish forever. If you're not booking Alba Lumos for your wedding, what are you even doing?!

Luke and Alexis were everything and more we could’ve wanted for a videographer. We Love their raw natural talent. How elegant and authentic their style of film was is what drew us to them to originally speak with them but their personalities is what made us book them. They are so open, flexible, and willing to adjust to really give you what you want. Not to mention their willingness to pack up all their equipment and hop on a ferry to film on an island they have never filmed before. You would’ve thought they have been filming on Nantucket for years with how well they picked up the lay out of the island and captured all the specials spots to us. Having luke and Alexis on there the day of really helped calm nerves. I am a shy person and was worried about being filmed all day but it felt as if We just had our friends there hanging out. They are absolutely fun, calm and great to be around while simultaneously keeping their professionalism about them. We would highly recommend natural focus films for anyone looking for an amazing video to capture your day.

At Nectar & Vessel our ethos is sustainability + bliss-forward designs. We specialize in arrangements that are full of texture, unique and lush. We crave the weirdo flowers, the heirloom varieties and mixing in contrasting natural elements. We don't try to be on-trend, rather we are intuitive with the flower and our clients and let the flower speak to us.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Naomi for our wedding florals was a DREAM and an exceptional experience from start to finish. We cannot recommend her and her team at Nectar and Vessel highly enough to other couples getting married. One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was hiring Naomi and her team and giving her complete creative freedom. She took that freedom, and spun floral magic into the most beautifully designed space we have ever seen. Her love for florals, and for creating beautiful moments for others shines in her work - and isn’t that what you want on your wedding day? To be surrounded by love through flowers that all your guests can feel? That’s the magic Naomi brings to weddings that is impossible to replicate. The floral designs and artistry that Naomi and her team created for our day were simply stunning. Beyond being beautiful, they were unique and felt personal to us. It was the talk of the wedding that none of the guests had ever seen a display like the florals at our wedding, and that each tablescape and design felt like a work of art. A few things additional things about working with N&V we’d like to highlight: Design and vision: Naomi not only executed a vision for our wedding florals and design, she shaped it from the very beginning. The proposal powerpoint was a detailed mood board of not only the florals, but the overall vibe and design for the wedding. For the bride or groom, like me, who was overwhelmed with how to make a wedding feel cohesive, personal, and intentionally designed, trust in Naomi to help jump start that process and hire her as one of your early vendors. Flawless logistics and professionalism: Working with N&V was completely stress free because Naomi and her team are true professionals. She was respectful of our budget, had a clear, well-structured contract, and payment through her professional portal was incredibly easy. Everything was delivered, set-up, and cleaned up flawlessly and on-time. Importantly, if there were any issues day-of, we didn’t hear about it or take on any of that stress (though with her careful planning, I bet there weren’t any fires to put out!) While these sound like boring logistics, all of this professional preparation on N&V’s part saved us a ton of time and stress wedding planning. Positivity and good energy: Naomi herself is the warmest and most effusively positive person - that was clear from our very first consultation call with her and was even more true on the day of our wedding. We felt showered in positivity throughout our experience working with her, which is exactly what you want on your big day! We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Nectar and Vessel, and specifically, Naomi and her wonderful team. Hire her early, trust her to work her magic and give her all the creative control, and then watch your wedding venue transform.

Hi, I'm Lauren! I'm a wedding planner with a passion for helping couples curate their dream wedding experience. For the last 8 years I've focused on planning and events, and I've found so much joy seeing each one come to life. My approach is centered around detailed organization, intentional design, hospitality, and fun! Wedding planning is an exciting time, and I focus on being a calm and supportive presence throughout the entire process. I love what I do and the couples I get to work with. I can't wait to get to know you and hear more about your wedding vision.

Awarded Best of Zola
Lauren was by far and away the best thing that happened to our wedding planning process. We hired her as a day-of-coordinator as our venue required one, and she absolutely blew us away with everything she did. We had a 1 hour meeting with her every week for the six weeks leading up to the wedding day, so by the time we got to the day itself, we were confident she knew the details of our event inside and out. Lauren asked all the questions that we never would have thought of, and covered details that we definitely would have overlooked ourselves. She handled communication with our vendors, double checked all our contracts, and helped us navigate some last minute logistical challenges that were stressful for us. She is so calm, and so easy to work with. She helped with setup and breakdown of our decorations, and made sure our gifts and cards were all in a safe spot. During the wedding, she was always right there when I looked for her, and she was watching every detail to make sure everything went off without a hitch. We truly don’t have enough praise for Lauren. She is excellent at her job and will take so much stress off your shoulders, leaving you to find more joy in the planning process and the wedding itself.

Hi, I’m Julie! I’ve been photographing weddings for about ten years now (holy cow, do I feel old!), starting with photographing friends' weddings and quickly falling in love with the work. While I adore capturing gorgeous portraits of the bride and groom and the quiet (and sometimes chaotic!), beautiful moments during a wedding/elopement/engagement session, those ridiculous candid moments (like when a stranger offers you a fry on the boardwalk during your bridesmaid photos) truly make your day uniquely yours. I'd absolutely describe my style as a mixture of classic, artistic and photojournalism, but my heart lies in capturing candid moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are BEYOND thrilled that we chose Julie to capture our wedding. My wife and I had a destination wedding in Kennebunkport, Maine so choosing vendors was really just based on doing our own research and combing through reviews. From start to finish, everything with Julie was incredible. She really understood what we wanted and that aligned perfectly with her vibrant and candid style. She was so efficient on the day of the wedding as well so we were able to enjoy what we put together. She truly has an amazing eye, book her!

I love weddings! I love everything about them, the planning, the excitement, and love!!! I have been a wedding stylist for over a decade. This past year has been my busiest wedding season to date, and it made me realize how lucky I am to do this, and how much I really love it! When I'm not on site, you can find me at my salon, Sparrow, working with my clients, and taking care of all the plants! There are a lot! I am always learning and growing as a stylist to make sure I can offer the very best for my clients. My salon is located in Saco, Maine, where the pre-wedding trial takes place. I hope to see you there!

Heather at Sparrow Hair Studio has been my stylist for the past seven years or so. I've sung her praises & been a devoted client, but it was even more impressive to see her shine as a wedding vendor! She's the second person I told about my engagement (after BFF & before family). Her "bedside demeanor" during the trial and on the day of with mom & BFF were impeccable. She really knows how to communicate with everyone - to make them feel comfortable, to recognize styles that work for their hair type and personal taste, and to offer suggestions for the day/wear-time/weather/vibe. She's a true professional in every sense of the word. Coordinating with her is incredibly easy, like a touchstone of sanity in the stressful planning time. I could go on & on, but instead, just look at the insane dream-Barbie, gravity-defying ponytail she gave me!! 11/10 - would get divorced & remarried just to have Heather make me feel like a movie star again.

Felisha was the QB to our day. She made sure she knew exactly what we wanted long before the day of. I had all the confidence in her and the team prior to the wedding but when it was game time, they really exceeded my expectations. She maintained the timeline and checked all of the boxes with ease. We were so impressed with her attention to detail and our final photos. Considering how complicated planning a wedding on your own can be, she was extremely helpful by creating the schedule that everyone worked off of. Thank you again for capturing the most memorable moments of our day!

Makeup by Magen

I am a licensed makeup artist in two states and I’ve been a bridal makeup artist for 12 years. During this time I have been very fortunate to be doing what I absolutely love my dream job! Let me help you design and make your bridal makeup vision come to life.

Working with Magen was absolutely fantastic. She listened to what I wanted, and she delivered perfectly. We did a trial run so I could see how the makeup would last for the day, which was awesome, because it gave us the chance to pick out colors and try different things before the day of my wedding. And then the morning of, she was willing to get up early to meet me and she did an amazing job. I felt like I looked like myself, but more beautiful! She will definitely be my go to for any makeup needs in the future. I'd never considered having someone else do my makeup until I met Magen, and I'm so glad I trusted her to do it!

She has 10+ years experience working with venues, room layouts, A/V, food & beverage, rentals, flowers, transportation, budgets and more.

Hiring Mandy at Breathe Easy Events was, by far, the best decision we made for our wedding. She helped us think of things we never thought of during our planning process, was so organized, helped get all my vendors together the day of, and truly made our day the most special day ever. Our guests shared so many compliments regarding her services, and how she went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. There aren’t enough words to express how grateful we were to have Mandy by our side. I highly recommend working with her and have sent her information to every bride I come across!

Awarded Best of Zola
Zofia was such a pleasure to work with for our September wedding. She was flexible during the planning process as we decided what our decor would look like and was easily able to amend our contract when things changed. The planning moodboard we received from Zofia was gorgeous and a testament to her creative powers. Leading up to the wedding, all details were easy to finalize as Zofia was very communicative. Day-of, she was there early to get everything set-up and to get all the personal flowers delivered. Everything looked amazing, and I can’t say enough about our bouquets and sweetheart table! Zofia listened to our vision and did a great job making everything elegant and natural. We would happily recommend Zofia to anyone!

Kate and Keith are spectacular! They're incredibly talented photographers and great people to be around. We loved every second of planning and executing our adventure elopement with them. They made us feel at ease the whole time. They focused on what we wanted out of our wedding day and were genuinely invested in making sure our day was everything we wanted it to be. They were organized, responsible, and communicative as we were making plans, and also very easy going and up for adventure. They were totally on board when we asked to have our dogs be a part of the festivities at the last minute! They both have a great energy, which made our wedding day a lot of fun. And the photos! Kate & Keith both have a wonderful eye for photography and we couldn't be happier with the beautiful and creative images we have to remember our wedding day (which were also available way sooner than we expected!)!

I’ve been making pictures since I was 12. My parents gave me an ancient 35mm Konica Autoreflex camera, told me to get after it, and the rest, as they say, is history. My role as a photographer is to capture the rare, vulnerable, epic, extraordinary, and wonderfully ordinary moments of life, as well as the beautiful details in between. I strive to make images that come from the heart and will tell your story for years to come. Also, I might cry at your wedding. It happens.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough amazing things about Jo!!! I wish I could give her more than 5 stars! She is an incredible human that really cares about everyone she works with - which is sooo important. It's just an added bonus that she makes amazing photos as well! From the first inquiry, she responded very quickly and made me feel so at ease with the entire process. We hopped on a zoom and I honestly forgot that we were talking about hiring a photographer for a minute because we just got to chatting and everything felt so natural. She is super organized and incredibly knowledgeable about all things photography. It was also helpful that she lived near our wedding venue - because she knew so much about the area that we weren't super familiar with. By the amount of things I ran by her in terms of hotels, food, location logistics, etc - she could have been our planner! My husband and I did our first ever photo shoot together with Jo for our engagement photos to meet Jo and get comfortable in front of the camera and we were BLOWN away with the entire process and results! She made us feel so comfortable, brought us a little treat, and we had a blast running around a field with her. The photos came out amazingggg and made us so excited for our big day! It rained on our wedding day and Jo was consistently the person I felt like I gravitated towards to calm my nerves. She was able to get creative and find amazing ways to capture our day from start to finish, even if we had to adjust! She kept everything so light and fun, yet stayed organized and on top of every single detail throughout the day. She has an incredible eye for finding the "moments between the moments" that are organic and so natural. You can really feel every emotion that the people in her photos are going through. Overall, I cannot recommend Jo enough!!! She is an unreal photographer, but also wore all the hats (coordinator, driver, field frolicker, weather woman, therapist, White Mountain expert, etc.) during/before our big day. I would HIGHLY recommend!!!
