I loved photographing Kelsey & Alex's micro wedding at The Spinning Wheel! The afternoon was so calm and easy with the Katlyn's great organization and the rest of the staff. The flowers and appeal of the venue is stunning in the spring and summer. For it being a small venue, there are still tons of different photo opportunities.

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.

Tree Films Creative

  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Redding, 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!

I’ve been lucky enough to serve some of the most amazing clients in lower Fairfield County on events both large and small. This experience and my passion for music has helped me evolve into one of the most skilled DJ's in the area.

DJ Marv was SO much fun at our wedding! Marvin's experience as a DJ definitely showed as he handled the ceremony music without any audio hiccups, making sure he was saying the bridal party's names correctly during the reception, and navigating toasts and announcements in a fun and very professional manner. He expertly controlled the crowd with some of the best mixes I've ever heard at a wedding! My husband and I did not want to leave the dance floor! We had so many guests after the wedding tell us how much fun they had dancing to the music and that it was one of, if not the most, fun weddings they had ever been to. We were so pleased and blessed to have Marvin DJ our wedding and we will absolutely be recommending his services! 1000/10!

My husband and I got married here on May 11th, and it was truly a dream wedding. The food was amazing, and my guests were sure to let me know that. The view was unreal, and upkeep was so great we didn't need to spend much on floral, since the Candlewood Inn has such beautiful scenery and foliage. Krista was my coordinator and she was extremely helpful during the entire I was engaged and planning up until the day of the wedding, she is the absolute sweetest. Delilah and Brooke were my wedding helpers, not sure of the right term, and they literally helped me with every single thing on my wedding day. They made sure i had a drink in hand, that I was ok, that I ate, that my dress was on right. I truly don't know what i would have done without them, they really showed they cared about me. I am so grateful I was able to get married in the most beautiful place close to home.

I truly cannot put into words how amazing our entire experience was from start to finish. We found John and Avec L'Amour through our photographer, Heather Soucy. She told me that her family even used John for her brother's wedding because of everyone she has worked with, she trusted him to document their special day in the best way. That spoke volumes to me. When I say these two are a 'dream team' I am not kidding. As someone who had never been professionally photographed or video'd before, I was really nervous about looking and feeling awkward. John made my husband, Mike, and me feel SO comfortable throughout the whole day. It was so cool seeing these two incredibly creative minds feeding off each other to get the best possible shot. It was a little rainy on our day and they actually took video/photos of us inside a puddle reflection--I mean who thinks of that?! We were running a little late to the reception when our portraits were supposed to be taken and John knew we didn't want to miss too much of cocktail hour. We were able to get the most beautiful shots in just 30 minutes, including drone, which was super important to us. The Avec L'Amour team got absolutely stunning video without us feeling like we had cameras in our faces all night. We booked John for the 8-hour package, but realized we were not going to be able to get the bouquet toss or cake cutting in that time frame. NO worries!! John offered to stay an extra hour to capture the remainder of the evening. Now for the deliverables: we got our first teaser video back within 3 weeks of our day and I was absolutely blown away. We received the full gallery which included a 1 minute teaser, 3 minute trailer, and the full 1.5 hour long event not even a MONTH after our wedding day. It was just like watching a move of all our favorite people and he captured the day so perfectly. I cannot say enough: RUN, don't walk to book John and Avec L'Amour for your special day!! Worth every penny. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

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!!!

I am a New England photographer living in Connecticut, but I love to travel anywhere that involves documenting love and telling your story through photographs. I am creative at heart and I feel as though I was called to become a photographer. I love dreaming up wedding days, planning out locations for engagement sessions and capturing the beautiful chaos of family sessions.

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.

  • Serves Redding, CT

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!

Pizzazz Strings is an international ensemble of professional musicians with over twenty years experience providing music for private functions, corporate events and weddings from New York to London, Paris and Switzerland. Founded in 2012 by leading musicians in the New York and Connecticut area, our mission is to provide a high quality and flexible string ensemble for any occasion. ​

We can’t say enough about how amazing Andrea was to work with and how awesome our music was for the ceremony and cocktail hour. Andrea is quick to reply and follow up, thorough with her information, and flexible and willing to work with you on whatever you can dream up (Metallic to walk down the aisle-no problem!). The song list is so extensive that we had no problem finding what we wanted and actually had a hard time deciding because we had so many choices! The musicians were professional and delivered exactly what we wanted….and they sounded phenomenal! Our guests raved about the ceremony and cocktail hour music and had a blast trying to guess the songs (we had a lot of rock/pop music included) being played by the string quartet. Our only sadness is that we got pulled away during the cocktail hour for an emergency and didn’t get to hear more of their beautiful music or thank them personally. Amazing to work with and hope we can get to use them for another event in the future. Thank you Andrea!
