Sarah and her team were extremely fast and efficient in their communication throughout the planning process, which I really appreciated during the hectic wedding planning timeline. The flowers turned out beautifully on our wedding day - Sarah captured my vision perfectly with the arch, bouquets and centerpieces. Her work was delivered on time and the flowers stayed fresh all night. I would highly recommend them to any bride looking for an stress-free floral experience!”

Welcome to Three Roots Floral Design, a bespoke, sustainable and fine-arts informed wedding and event studio in the heart of Fairfield County, CT. Since 2013 we have partnered with our clients to offer bespoke floral design services for their one-of-a-kind day! We pride ourselves on getting to know our clients and bringing their vision to life.

“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.”

“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!”

“Candlewood Inn fully exceeded our expectations for our wedding day. Because of them and the staff our day ran so smoothly and we were able to just enjoy ourselves. From the beginning of the planning process they were clear with all information needed, dates for planning/deadlines and easy to communicate with. We really enjoyed the way they did the group tasting as it allowed us to see the spaced with an event happening along with tasting the food, which is delicious. We loved the food on our day from the passed apps, to the stations and entrees and our guests agreed - we got SO many compliments on the food. We were happy with working with Candlewood Inn but once our wedding day actually came around we were blown away. From the second we walked into the venue the Krista and our bridal attendants were two steps ahead of us doing everything we needed to be comfortable and fully enjoy ourselves. We were never without a drink in our hands and they made sure we had all the food we needed. They kept track of my bouquet and helped me with my dress - even fixing/pinning my bustle when it broke! They wrangled our large bridal party and had the ceremony run so smoothly. I could go on and on about how amazing the staff was. I could not recommend Candlewood Inn enough!”

“I can’t count the number of times during and after our wedding I said, “hiring Christina is the best money we spent on the wedding!” I am not a planner by nature and I was dreading wedding planning. The second we hired Christina, I felt like a huge weight had been lifted. She took care of all the tiny details, gave me ideas I never would have thought of, and brought our vision to life. She was so supportive throughout the whole process, answering texts and emails about absolutely everything. On the actual wedding day, I often thought that I didn’t know what we would have done without her. While our venue had a coordinator, they were not nearly as responsive and organized as Christina was.

“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!”

Our beauty team specializes in natural makeup applications and romantic hair styling. We travel to you for your special day or event.

“Working with Kim and the team at Eye for Beauty was a dream! As many others have said, I don't wear make-up or style my hair normally, so I was nervous about having to "wear a face" on my wedding day. But my nerves quickly subsided after my hair and make-up trial. DEFINITELY DO THE TRIAL! My concerns were heard and, even though I was unsure about wearing lashes, I barely could tell they were on after a few minutes. Day-of, they were very familiar with the venue (Bill Miller's Castle), and so everything went smoothly (and ahead of schedule!). They were even kind enough to have a stylist/artist go to a family member's hotel room too! Highly recommend choosing Eye for Beauty as your hair/make-up team, especially if you are not typically one to wear make-up!”

Despite the POURING RAIN on our wedding day - they didn't miss a beat! They followed us everywhere to make sure they got the perfect footage - yet still giving us our own privacy. The video took only a few short months to get back and we LOVE it so much! The flow, editing, music & timing are just what we could have imagined!

“Tonya's work is unbelievable. The fog that rolled in for our ceremony made it hard to see just a few feet in front of us, but her pictures came out stunning. She's a great communicator, detail-oriented and really made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. She sent us a day-of timeline and helped plan out what photos we would like in advance. We got back a preview album sent to us like 2 days after our wedding! We also did an engagement shoot with her before our wedding, which really made us excited for our big day.”

Hello, I'm Tonya. I am a documentary wedding, boudoir & lifestyle photographer with an editorial approach based in Fairfield County, Connecticut. At the heart of my work, you will find authentic connection & composition, some of the most important things to me as an artist. I build on that with honest storytelling with a more editorial approach. My inspiration lies in authentic human connection & emotions, pockets of light, vintage film, movement, honest interactions, vibrant colors found in nature, fog after a rainfall. Finding beauty in the most ordinary things.

“My father was a professional photographer for many years so when planning our wedding, my husband and I knew that finding a talented photographer was at the top of our priority list. We consider ourselves incredibly fortunate to have discovered Kevin because he exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we met Kevin, he had a way of making us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. He not only captured stunning posed photos but also effortlessly seized beautiful candid moments. Kevin's talent was apparent when he was able to work with our overcast weather and managed to frame and capture each shot like a true work of art. Every single photo we received perfectly conveyed the emotions and energy of our special day. What truly amazed us was the speed at which he delivered about 47 sneak-peek photos just one day after the wedding, and each of them was breathtakingly beautiful. My father would have undoubtedly been proud and delighted with the work Kevin accomplished on our wedding day. Kevin's talent has left us with cherished memories in the form of these stunning photographs.”

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!

I look forward to capturing your moments and celebrating your stories through my lens.

“I am the mother of the groom and am proud of the exceptional photography and exquisite pictures that Lauren Helsing captured of Greg and Melissa's wedding in the gorgeous setting in the Colorado Rockies! Lauren was professional, creative and managed to get wonderful smiles from my son, who throughout his life did not like to smile for the camera! She walked through prairie grass to get to the cliff where the ceremony took place, perched at precarious angles to capture a special vantage and delivered the most gorgeous photos I have ever seen of a wedding ...and in record time! She did have not only the surrounding snow-capped mountains but a stunning bride and handsome groom as subject matter. She caught them standing and sitting on their jeep, decked in white for her and black for him cowboy boots and hats, doing a dip to the crowds delight before a waterfall and so many treasured moments preserved in our memories and photos. Most important, she captured the love and joy that shone on their faces for each other. Lauren worked tirelessly, enthusiastically throughout the ceremony and the party that followed. A standing ovation for the work she gave us of their special wedding.”

“Veronica was a pleasure to work with—especially in the midst of our cancelled wedding due to covid and planning a private elopement. She was quick to respond and more than willing to help make this unplanned day very special. She was flexible about time and place, whatever worked for us! She was upfront about costs and what we could expect in return. She was extremely professional and focused—she made the most of every minute of our time together with no unnecessary small talk (which we appreciated). She scoped out the setting and quickly noticed all of the opportunities for great shots. we saw her visions come true and her photos were absolutely stunning, creative, and top notch quality. I love her pictures more than I love the pictures from my re-planned wedding a year later. You will not regret working with Veronica!”

Throughout the entire process of shooting engagement and wedding photos, and planning, Beth's expertise made us feel comfortable and confident.

Beth even sent us a calendar for the new year— each month had a different photo from our wedding. Her thoughtfulness and commitment to her clients is incredible and we would recommend her to all our friends and family!”

“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!”

“I have the unique experience of being a wedding planner that works with JAG Studios and this past year as a client renewing her vows! I can tell you that they are truly gifted artists and are able to read their clients exceptionally well. They create and forge lasting bonds and capture not just the wedding but every single special moment and detail flawlessly. Every client is blown away by their work, and if your looking to have an amazing photo experience, then JAG is who you should go with. As a client, renewing my ten-year anniversary vows, I wanted a photographer that could capture the years and moments that it took myself and my husband to get to this point. To be very honest, I was pretty freaked about having my photos taken; I am a behind the scenes gal! However, both Jacklyn and Chris not only made us 100% relax, but I barely knew they were taking photos, and when all was said and done and the showed us the end product both my husband and I cried for days because it was more beautiful then we could have ever imagined. They captured who we were as a couple, and as individuals and every moment, moments I did not even think about will forever be in an amazing photograph. Jaclyn Watson Events”
