Booking Cassie to be my wedding coordinator three months out to my wedding day was the best decision I made in the wedding planning process! I really thought I did not want or need a planner/coordinator, but having Cassie there really allowed me to enjoy my wedding. Cassie was diligent, organized, responsive, and patient. Cassie was so on top of every detail and knew all my vendors’ contracts inside and out! I had done lots of research online to make sure I knew every detail going into the wedding planning process, but there were some things I would not have known and Cassie was able to guide me through. For example, one of my vendors insisted an additional hour of rental time needed to be added to the wedding day (that would have cost me hundreds of dollars) and Cassie advocated for me, citing their contract, that it was not necessary. Cassie was also available to help make decisions regarding decor, helping me decide on pieces that best suited and enhanced the venue. I explained my vision of romantic candles everywhere throughout the event. Cassie and I worked together to shape where everything would go to create the seamless look. Cassie (and her assistant Cammie) made everything look stunning on the wedding day - and expertly packed up everything at the end of the night for us. I thought I could have my sister or family friend be in charge of so many of these tasks, but it was *so nice* delegating this out to a professional so that everyone could enjoy the day. Thank you Cassie for an amazing wedding day! Photo credit of venue photos: Created Coastal Photography

We cannot recommend Jeff, aka DJ Shyne, enough for any event, especially for a wedding! From the initial consultation to the last dance, Jeff was an absolute superstar. His professionalism, attention to detail, and incredible talent kept the energy high and the dance floor packed all night long. Jeff took the time to understand our musical preferences and seamlessly incorporated our favorite songs into the playlist. He effortlessly gauged the crowd's vibe, ensuring everyone, from the youngest to the oldest guest, was up and dancing. His ability to read the room and switch between genres was remarkable, creating an atmosphere that catered to everyone's tastes. Beyond his DJ skills, Jeff's charisma and infectious enthusiasm contributed immensely to the overall joy of our celebration. He went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, coordinating with other vendors and even assisting with last-minute adjustments without hesitation. Not only did Jeff provide exceptional entertainment, but he also acted as an invaluable emcee, guiding the evening's events with grace and charm. His announcements were clear and engaging, keeping the flow of the evening seamless. Our wedding wouldn't have been the same without Jeff's incredible talent, positive energy, and dedication to making our day unforgettable. If you're searching for a DJ who not only delivers exceptional music but also elevates the entire experience, Jeff is the one you need. Thank you, Jeff, for making our wedding day absolutely perfect!

Kristin Griffin Photography 

5.0

Hanson, MA
  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,750
  • Serves Riverside, CT

I shot my first wedding in 2004, and from that moment on, I was hooked! It's an honor to witness and capture such an important moment in the lives of my couples. Before specializing in weddings, I focused on fine art and night photography. I earned a BFA degree in studio art from the University of Notre Dame (Go Irish!), and a MFA degree in imaging arts/photography from Rochester Institute of Technology. I taught black and white, digital, alternative process and studio photography at the high school, university and adult education levels. I love both the planned events and the unintentional, quiet moments that make a wedding unique!

Kristin is an absolute delight to work with! She was so easygoing and truly captured our wedding perfectly. It was really important to us to get most of our photos done before the ceremony, and she and her team made that happen so we could go enjoy the party (also - highly recommend doing that no matter who you book). I had some reservations about having two photographers AND a videographer there, since I’d been to weddings that looked more like paparazzi shoots, but they managed to capture everything without blocking anyone’s view. And can we talk about the turnaround?? We got our entire gallery, PLUS all the video footage (a few montages and longer videos) within three weeks of the event, including mailing us a flash drive! Kristen is a rock star and you should totally book with her.

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. As out-of-town parents of the groom, we relied on Christina to ensure our vision came true for a fairly large rehearsal dinner.

Fairy Meadow Flowers

Hamden, CT
  • Florist
  • Starts at $4,500

My name is Isabelle, and I grow chemical free, regenerative flowers and herbs on 3/4 of an acre in Hamden, CT. I truly love working on these blooms from start to finish, and I hope to get to share some of the beauty with you on your special day.

Awarded Best of Zola
There are many florists out there, but how many of them offer flowers they've grown themselves, right from the earth? If you want something super traditional, like a sphere of roses, Isabelle may not be for you. But if you like wildflowers, want to work with a super cool person, and collaborate not only with your vendor, but with the earth itself - this is who you want to work with! Everything Isabelle does has meaning and purpose. On my wedding day, they even foraged some goldenrod that was growing right outside our venue, adding it to the bunches of dramatic, colorful dahlias and unique blooms I don't even know the names of. It was meaningful, gorgeous, and creative. All of the arrangements they made came out came out stunning. Each one was a little different, but everything went together perfectly. I could not pick a favorite. Isabelle was also willing to take on so many little details I hadn't thought of. They provided a really lovely floral cake topper, and put little flowers in each of our guest's napkins. They also have opinions, and will share them when asked- something I like in vendors, who I feel often have the best instincts for what works well. In addition, their prices are incredibly reasonable, especially when you consider how special their work is. In a world of refrigerated carnations...be a wild goldenrod, plucked at golden hour, by a true artist :) Cannot recommend Fairy Meadow Flowers enough!

After fifteen years in theatre and television production, Kate O’Donnell Diaz discovered a love for planning events but wanted to do so with a different approach from what other planners were taking. Kate desired to help couples cultivate weddings that truly reflected them and not just what bridal magazines, their future mother-in-law or high school frenemy said they just HAD to do. The literal and financial waste she witnessed going into weddings because of something “someone” said the couple HAD to have made Kate feel incredibly uncomfortable. Kate saw a need for a more eco-friendly approach to event planning.

I absolutely loved working with Jen and Kate for my wedding in October 2023!! They were both always so communicative, understanding, and organized, and the amount of attention they put into all of our details really showed on the day of our wedding. They handled so many of the logistics as well for us with our vendors, so that we could better focus on the parts we considered more fun; that truly made the planning process so much easier and enjoyable for me and my husband. In the end, the two of them captured our vision perfectly and gave us such reassurance and confidence in their abilities that it removed all of the stress leading up to the big day. So grateful for getting the opportunity to work with both Jen and Kate — our wedding truly would not have been the same without all of their help!

I am animated, honest and fun! I am a mom, wife, teacher, avid runner and overall a very passionate person. I love my family, anything nautical and really enjoy a great glass of bubbly at the end of a long day! I'd love to meet you!

First of all, Erica was excited to be part of our day and made me feel heard and special through the entire process. She was flexible and planned ahead, even for the rainy weather we ended up with. She spent the extra time to make sure we got more than enough shots at several locations around our venue. She had a few shots posted online immediately and was SUPER fast in getting our whole gallery completed. Her attention to detail is second to none. All that being said, the reason we went with Keane Eye was her creativity- and she delivered in spades! I am thrilled with the captured memories from our big day and will be singing her praises to anyone who will listen!

We were so lucky to have someone recommend Lilysh to us for our wedding florals in the Catskills. Although I had a vision for what I wanted the flowers to look like, I am certainly not a flower connoisseur, so wanted to find a professional who I could trust to understand and execute my vision and Liliya was the perfect person to do just that. Her timing and communications were perfect, Including plenty of mockups and vision boards during our preliminary meetings, and continued conversations leading up to the big day. Plus - I love that she works with in season/local blooms, in addition to other sustainability efforts. Photo Credit: The Lovewigs

New York, NY
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Riverside, CT

I found my love for photography in a high school dark room, and I have continued to follow that passion to find myself today working as a hybrid photographer in both Film and Digital. I strive not to just take pictures, but to capture candid emotions and capture them in a beautiful way. My photography is personal and intimate. My approach is a mixture of fine art and documentary, I try to capture your moments and day as it happened but highlighting the special details and taking advantage of the best lighting. As a lover of history I love capturing personal and family histories that surround weddings.

Awarded Best of Zola
Just a few minutes into our first conversation with Judson, we knew she was our wedding photographer. She was great to work with — very easy-going, fun and the utmost professional who has a fantastic eye and the patience of a saint for our ... always sort of "extra" family — and dog, Kona, who refused to cooperate with most pictures haha. My husband and I normally shy away from being in front of the camera, but with Judson's energy and personality, our discomfort quickly melted away, and we could just focus on having the best day of our lives. She even got us to dance atop one of the hills on Roosevelt Island, which ended up being some of our favorite pics! By the end of the night, it was like Judson had been part of our family forever. I know she'd be a great addition to your family and wedding, too. We cannot recommend her enough! She really listens to what you want and delivers the most beautiful memories.

He played everything we wanted to hear and then some. He also stayed for our after party to keep playing and he seemed to be having as much fun as we were. The company itself was so easy to work with and had an online portal for us to put all the songs we wanted to hear and didn’t want to hear. We did not stop dancing all night including my grandma

My name is Taylor — I’m a husband, father, teacher, ocean lover, and videographer / editor based out of CT and Cape Cod. I’ve been passionate about photography for as long as I can remember, and deep down I’ve always felt that capturing moments was in some way my calling. A few years ago I began to realize that photographs — even the most compelling ones — are not able to tell an entire story. They provide a powerful glimpse, frozen in time, but even the best photographs are unable to preserve memories and emotions the way that films can.

I can't say enough great things about Taylor! I knew from our initial call that I wanted him on our vendor team and I couldn't be happier with my decision! His films capture the elegant and timeless vibes I was hoping for and he was an absolute joy to plan and work with. Taylor and my photographer blended seamlessly and teamed up on the big day to work their magic. Our social media reel is my favorite thing to watch now and we're so excited to see the final product! Taylor is truly gifted and I would highly recommend him to any bride!

Your wedding is a day that is filled with a wide range of emotions. A new beginning comes with more than just happiness. There is fear of the new, letting go of the past, the feeling of accomplishment from parents and loved ones and of course the excitement and joy in deciding to take a life long adventure with someone you love. My goal is to capture all of these emotions for you, so you can cherish and relive them for many years to come.

Working with Joe was a blessing i didn’t know i needed until i found it. From the time i got engaged i always knew i wanted a videographer but kept convincing myself i could live without. But in the 11th hour i knew i needed one and along came Joe ! After lots of research & by the lucky stars Joe happened to be available within the 3 months before my wedding. From the very beginning Joe was professional, easy to talk too and so so easy to work with. He made my wedding day so smooth and easy & i never had to question anything the whole entire day, he even worked so well with my photographer who he’d never met before.

I've been a professional photographer since 2016 but really I've been invested in photography since I was 15 years old. My love for documenting moments came from a desire to capture my own life and that of my friends using disposable cameras to using flip phone cameras and point and shoot digital cameras on beach trips with friends. I have used writing, art, and photo to document my life and it is an incredibly special thing to be able to share that with my clients.

I am a caffeine addict who never sleeps. I love a good thunderstorm and playing Candy Crush for the brain breaks. I adore all kinds of dogs, but I have a special love for German Shepherds. My all-time favorite thing is to sit by the fire with a glass of good cabernet or watch the ocean waves hit the beach.

Welcome, I am a videographer and editor based in Hartford County, Connecticut. Firstly, let me explain that I travel anywhere within 3 hours, so if you are far away, that is okay!

Kane Films can make a highlight video or feature video, or both. Yes both! A highlight is a shorter video that ranges from 3-20 minutes. Longer videos are 60-90 minutes.

I see beauty everywhere on a wedding day. I spend the entire day smiling. My face usually hurts on my drive home ;)! Although I'm primarily photojournalistic in style, I know how to take charge for posed portraits.

Born and raised in Maine, I dream of one day retiring there by the sea, like a real life Miss Rumphius. But until then, I live just outside of Boston with my husband and our three cats. I'm married to my high school sweetheart, but we waited more than a decade before saying our own vows. Sometimes (okay, often) I eat cake for breakfast, so you can always count on me to help taste test yours. If I'm not photographing people in love, I'm probably enjoying a glass (bottle) of champagne on the couch or planning my next adventure. I believe everything is better by the ocean and you should never wait to explore the world.

We found Kendra on Instagram (yes, Instagram!) and instantly fell in love with her style. She is so personable and made us feel like ourselves in front of the camera, which included lots of giggles and following us around while we adventured for our engagement shoot. We picked Kendra as our wedding photographer for a lot of reasons, but initially because we loved her natural, bright and romantic aesthetic. As soon as we started working with Kendra, it was like we had been friends for a long time. She made us feel special and knew exactly what to say to capture our emotions and love for one another in the way that we expressed it, which sounds like a no brainer, but it can be challenging to feel "normal" when a new person is in front of you and taking your picture! In addition to being an incredible photographer, we turned to Kendra for her opinion and advice in some of our wedding decisions that we were having trouble making. Kendra gladly and professionally provided us with her input and even sent us some photos of examples of things we were considering that she had previously photographed so we had a visual. On the day of our wedding, from the moment Kendra arrived, she ran the show. I was so excited to see her and felt like she was a wedding guest that had arrived, but even though we developed an excellent rapport, Kendra meant business and was ready to do her job, so she got the ball really rolling. Shortly after her arrival, tension started to grow as we became closer and closer to the time of the ceremony and things didn't go exactly as we had planned them. Kendra had our backs and helped us to solve as many problems as we could, and make the best of the others that we had to move on from. This would be described under going "above and beyond the call of duty"! Kendra was there for us as our incredible photographer, but she wore many hats that contributed to the success of our wedding day. You should select Kendra as your wedding photographer if you want someone who is calm and personable, while delivering natural, bright and romantic photos. We are so grateful to Kendra for our beautiful photos and all of her help in making our day be a success!!

My Photography style is documentary based as I aim to capture natural candid moments.

We hired Danny to take our engagement photos and we couldn't be any happier with how they turned out. Danny's eye is unmatched. We took the pictures on Danny's referral at beautiful Rockland Lake State Park around sunset. His knowledge & usage of natural lighting was truly impressive. Danny's communication throughout the shoot was flawless; he knew what to say and how to say it to catch the most amazing photos. We're beyond excited to have him shoot our wedding next September in Lake Placid, NY!

Abby herself was not available on my wedding day, but she went above and beyond to communicate clearly and in a timely fashion to make sure her team would be ready for the big day! We still talk on Instagram now! I worked with Andrea for makeup and Bailey for hair. It was an absolute dream! It’s like getting your hair and makeup done by two close friends who bring out the absolute best in you! They were so fun to talk to and work with, but most importantly, they made my vision come to life and made me look above and beyond more beautiful than I could have ever imagined! They also did the hair and makeup of my twin sister, my mom, my mother-in-law, and my sister-in-law, and I cannot express enough how beautiful they all looked! Whether young or mature skin, long or short hair, Andrea and Bailey are so talented! Additionally, Emma did makeup and Lynn did hair for my bridesmaids. I cannot rave about them enough!

We will be there to make sure you’re picture perfect!

I had a vision for my wedding day to accentuate my long hair – soft, glamorous waves similar to an Old Hollywood look. If this is the look you're going for as well, you likely quickly discovered that this is a much more difficult look to achieve than you think. Better yet, most of the professionals who have perfected their technique charge well over 500 (one even quoted me 900) for the wedding day look and that didn't include a trial. I am all for paying vendors what they deserve for their skills and talent, but it felt so unattainable. But beyond that, these stylists booked up far too quick to even get on their books. Some others I was able to get trials with simply didn't have the skill to achieve the soft Hollywood style. I went to Coven for a haircut and met Alexis and ironically struck up a conversation about my wedding. She was inquiring about what kind of look I was going for and we ended up booking a trial for glam waves. When I say I was beyond surprised and overjoyed leaving my trial – and the wedding day?! I could not say enough amazing things about Lex. She even washed and styled my hair before my rehearsal dinner the day prior to the wedding (separate cost) so the amount of product in my hair was exactly what we wanted to work with on the wedding morning. She is the kindest, most professional soul with the talent to match. And as it is a very important factor in the process of wedding planning, the pricing is reasonable and attainable. The amount of compliments I get on my hair to this day anytime someone sees a wedding photo, and I will forever recommend Alexis and her team at Coven!! Don't hesitate to reach out and book for your big day – you won't be disappointed. Note: I did my trial in the salon and Alexis assistant came to us on the wedding day.

I started photographing weddings in 2017. I originally got my first camera to photograph landscapes- National Parks specifically. But the second the camera was in my hands, I was immediately drawn to photographing connections between people. Since that moment I haven't hesitated while my heart led me in the direction of wedding and elopement photography! I love documenting the in-between, unprompted moments; the subtle way your partner glances over at you with a side smile when you're not paying attention, the groom fiddling with his new ring, and the uncontrollable laughter when you're melting into each other during your couple's photos.

We had the pleasure of having Tammy shoot our engagement photos, as well as our entire wedding day. As many others have stated, we would highly recommend her for not only her gorgeous photos but for her relaxed and personable style. Throughout the entire process Tammy communicated with us to be sure she was giving us exactly what we were looking for in terms of style/structure. The day of our engagement shoot, we had unexpected weather but thankfully she was flexible and responsive in moving the time for our shoot to accommodate the unexpected rain. Despite the fact it was cold and rainy, she happily worked with us to get all (plus more) of the photos we were expecting. Between both our wedding and engagement shoots, Tammy did a fantastic job working in all of the ideas we had envisioned. We had to downsize our wedding and had plenty of unexpected restrictions due to Covid but Tammy continued to help support making our day special. We would recommend Tammy to anyone looking for beautiful, candid, relaxed yet fun photos and we look forward to future opportunities of working with her!

Jason was recommended to me by a family member, and to this day, I'm so grateful. Jason was so quick with communication. He responded and asked for details from the very beginning. He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.

My hair tends to get frizzy very easily when it's down (in this case half down), but she made sure it stayed looking amazing all night long, despite lots of dancing and even some rain in the evening. I cannot say enough good things about her! She's so talented and made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. I highly recommend her to everyone and anyone looking for a hairstylist for their wedding!

Almost all of my couples come to me saying that they feel weird in front of the camera and worried about how their photos will turn out. But of course they want those gorgeous, Pinterest-worthy shots! My laid-back attitude will help put you at ease, helping your true personalities shine through (with simple and fun guidance for the posed photos). And my quiet and calm nature makes it easy for me to blend into the background, to get tons of candid photos that you will make you laugh and cry.

I would highly recommend for your most important occasions! We found about Brett through our wedding planner, and are so happy to have found her. Brett did our wedding photos for both our small ceremony in 2020 and then again at our reception in 2021. The photos from both events were absolutely stunning — she captured many candid shots that truly captured our emotions, and helped position us to ensure the photos had creative and beautiful backdrops. Although we took thousands of photos, the experience was quite organic / natural — Brett has a calming personality and goes with the flow of the day. In addition to the photography itself, we were very impressed by Brett’s professionalism, responsiveness, and flexibility; we had to move our wedding by 13 months due to the pandemic, and Brett was completely understanding and flexible. She also sent us the photos afterwards both through a portal and on a USB. Thanks Brett for helping to capture our special day!

Hi, Thanks for reading! Here's my photography short story: 2017, after 13 years of teaching, I said goodbye to the classroom and pursued Olympic weightlifting photography- my company was Everyday Lifters. Shortly after, I launched my wedding business. The Long Version: Weightlifting has taken me to places like Turkmenistan, Germany, & across the country! The weightlifters started getting married, and along the way, I received training to advocate for diverse bodies as a photographer. During this time of transition, I started taking documenting courses through the International Center of Photography and work on documenting local stories.

Choosing a photographer is always hard, it is even more nerve racking when choosing your wedding photographer. That wasn’t the case when we met and connected with Viviana. Viviana from the start was able to put us at ease and was incredibly welcoming. She was very open and helpful as we navigated the planning process. During the day of our wedding we felt like we were in safe and good hands. We didn’t feel like we had to act a certain way or pose in an inauthentic manner. We felt at ease and like our true selves throughout. Viviana’s approach and warmth helped us be our true selves and embrace the day to its fullest. When we received the photos we were thrilled about how they all came out. We loved that each picture captured a special moment on our special day. Whether that was at our first look, ceremony, or when we hit the dance floor. We included pictures to our friends along with our thank you notes. It was an absolute pleasure to partner with Viviana on our wedding day photography. We highly recommend her and her work for your wedding!

Julian was so easy to work with and made the day go by smoothly for our other vendors, he even worked with our officiant to do transitional music during the ceremony. He worked so hard with us trying to get a band to fit with the space we had, but ultimately we went with the duet DJ option which is a very cool alternative that we were so happy was available.

As the owner and lead planner, I am driven by a deep sense of energy and focus that I bring to work every day. My clients become a part of the Beckerman family whom I wholeheartedly care for. My journey in event planning began 9 years ago after completing my undergraduate degree in event planning and hospitality management, along with a minor in business and law. Later, I earned a master's degree in business and project management, which has helped me to gain a comprehensive understanding of planning.

Without Beckerman Planning, we would not have had the wedding of our dreams. Garbriella worked around the clock before and during our wedding to ensure EVERYTHING was covered and taken care of. Before the Wedding, Garbriella kept us on track; regularly checking in and suggesting next steps to ensure we stayed ahead of everything wedding planning. Her knowledge was essential in discussing quotes with vendors, making major decisions, and keeping us calm as the big date approached. We were extremely impressed with her professionalism when dealing with vendors, and can’t thank her enough for playing hard ball when the moments got tough and we were too stressed to do so. During the wedding weekend, I cannot stress enough the importance of having the Beckerman Planning team on-site. From setup until breakdown, the team was working non-stop to help us have the perfect wedding. The team was there setting up and ensuring that every vendor brought everything that was contracted and everything was in perfect order. Including staying late the night before to ensure a vendor fixed a major mistake with our seating chart. On the day of the event, it felt like magic how everything was just done before we could even think about it. We were able to relax and truly enjoy our day, not having to worry about ANYTHING. Garbriella even taught all the Groomsmen how to put on their boutonnieres!!! The schedule Garbriella put together was a lifesaver, and even better was her ability to ensure everyone was in the right place at the right time. We could seriously go on all day about the amazing things this team did for us, down to every little detail. Garbriella made sure throughout the day that we were not stressing or worrying. She happily jumped in at a moments notice to any and every request we had without hesitation. Going above and beyond is an understatement to the dedication the Beckerman Planning team brings to your event. We were ecstatic to get back to the Airbnb and find that Garbriella had already been there - with all of our leftover pizza waiting for us for a late night snack. The Beckerman Planning team even continued to work after our event to make sure everything was accounted for, we were not overcharged, and checking in on how we felt. Garbriella is truly a superstar and if you want the wedding or event of the year, she’s the one to hire to make that happen!

I grew up with family members that DJ'd most of my family's weddings CA. But since I got married in PA they weren't really an option and to be honest I am glad they weren't. Stefan was incredibly professional, detailed, and fun to work with. He was so flexible with all the things we had going on. He helped me immensely to ensure that everything was timed well throughout the day. He was a perfect MC, had amazing sound equipment. And more importantly played DOPE A** music. My husband is a skater at heart and so he loves the classic early 2000 music like Mr. Brightside. So much so that he had a whole list of songs he wanted Stefan to play in a series. And Stefan DELIVERED. the entire crowd was pumped up by the songs and it made the whole night that much more amazing. When I say that DJ Stefan is worth every penny I mean it. EVERY PENNY. You will not be disappointed and neither would your guests. Worry free, awesome music, that's where it is at. Thank you Stefan!!!!!!

A major part of our amazing wedding experience was the exceptional performance by Vibrant Entertainment which we had the privilege of booking. We had multiple bookings for entertainment who had never worked together but were delighted to witness the exceptional collaboration that Vibrant had with our DJ, and the saxophonist, resulting in a truly unforgettable and harmonious celebration. We are grateful for Justin and his availability and attentiveness leading up to the wedding. He promptly responded to our inquiries, patiently addressed any concerns we had, and offered valuable insights based on his experience. We felt reassured and confident with him MCing our wedding. Vibrant entertainment, with their incredible talent served as the heartbeat of the evening. They not only delivered on the performances throughout the night but also managed to keep every single guest engaged and entertained throughout the entire evening. It comes as no surprise that numerous attendees approached us, eager to know how we discovered this incredible band that left everyone asking for more. Their seamless fusion of talent, passion, and infectious enthusiasm created an atmosphere that set the tone for the entire celebration. The band effortlessly drew people to the dance floor, with even the most reserved individuals unable to resist the temptation to join in the fun. Their diverse repertoire catered to a wide range of musical preferences, ensuring that there was something for everyone to enjoy. From classic hits to contemporary favorites, Vibrant flawlessly delivered each song. What truly set this band apart was their ability to create moments of genuine connection.

People were genuinely impressed by their professionalism, stage presence, and the extraordinary level of entertainment provided. If you're in search of a band that will surpass all expectations and leave your guests talking about your wedding for years to come, look no further.

Carleen and Taylor were the best wedding hair and make up team I could have asked for! Highly recommend them for your bridal beauty needs! From the first time I contacted Carleen about my wedding, she’s been amazing to work with. My first hair and make up trial with another vendor was a disaster, I was only in Connecticut for a few days to do a trial (I’m not from the area, but got married in CT), and emailed Carleen the night before Thanksgiving to see if she could squeeze me in before I returned home. She responded to me on Thanksgiving Day and scheduled me for a trial the very next day. I loved her work and booked her on the spot. Fast forward to the wedding day, my group of ladies had a lot of specific needs and requests, and Carleen and Taylor were more than accommodating. Our getting ready time went so smoothly, everyone was thrilled with how their hair and make up turned out, and as a bride I could not have felt more beautiful on the big day. My hair and make up was still beautiful when I woke up the next day! Thanks for everything, Carleen and Taylor!

We have an extensive songlist of over 300 songs, drawing from all styles of music, including traditional folk/bluegrass, as well as classic rock, pop, jazz and country. The band has also released 3 full length albums of original music, ranging from progressive bluegrass/newgrass instrumentals to goofy kids songs.

Awarded Best of Zola
All of our guests commented that the music at our wedding was lovely and really tied the whole event together. Our venue did not allow DJ's or amplified sound and Astrograss had no problem playing everything acoustically. They were really great communicating before our event. They learned 5 songs at our request and let us pick plenty others for them to play from their extensive repertoire. They even coordinated with our friend (who is a singer) who wanted to sing something for us which ended up being one of the highlights of the night.

Shukhrat Kamalov Photography

Southington, CT
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Serves Riverside, CT

Hey there, I’m Shukhrat, a proud husband, a father and an artist. My love for photography started about fifteen years ago with photojournalism. Today, I continue to utilize my skills in capturing beautiful wedding and portrait moments that evoke the same emotions as the real moment. My photography style is diverse and has been refined over the years to showcase my creative vision. I am all about creating stunning, timeless artwork that truly captures the essence of a moment in true to life colors.

Shukhrat and his wife Rachel just shot our June 8th wedding and we couldn't be happier. They were amazing to work with and the photos are phenomenal! About the pictures: Shukhrat is versatile and very skilled. When we took our engagement photos he provided us with various styles of photos and editing, and then used our feedback to guide the photos he took at our wedding. He is also flexible. We got married in a city park and there were wayyyy more people in the park than we were expecting at 6:00pm at night. Without missing any of the candid details or true-to-life colors that we wanted, Shukhrat was able to frame the photos and/or alter the lighting so that the park goers were barely visible in the background. Both Shukhrat and Rachel are also very skilled at giving direction when needed, but letting you do your own thing the rest of the time. Neither my husband nor I have a lot of experience in front of a camera—they gave us enough direction to feel confident, without making us feel stifled or overly posed. We wanted photos that felt organic and genuine, and they were really able to capture that. Working with Shukhrat and Rachel: The two of them were a dream to work with. Incredibly professional--very communicative, punctual, quick turnaround time on photos. And they are also just lovely people. You spend so much time on your wedding day with your photographers, it's really important to feel comfortable with them, and we certainly did. They brought both a fun, but calming energy, easing our pre-wedding jitters before the ceremony, and leaning into the excitement as the night went on. Although we hardly know them, they felt like friends. We are so glad we booked Shukhrat for our wedding!
