Beach Nights - Live Band & DJ Combo 

5.0

Boston, MA
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $8,500
  • Serves Shelton, CT

You’ve seen wedding bands before. But you’ve never seen one like us. Our wedding nights are, in a word, unforgettable. We specialize in epic dance hits, teary-eyed singalongs, and everything in between. Book us for your event and you'll get our award-winning Boston Wedding Band & DJ combo, PLUS our professional sound and stage lighting system at one simple rate, with absolutely NO overtime charges. We travel all over New England and beyond, so when you’re ready for our industry-leading talent and a game-changing event package all at one affordable wedding band price, we’re ready to celebrate with you.

We are still on a high from the most fun night of our lives all thanks to BeachNights band, Chris and DJ Connor!!! If you want to have music at your wedding that everyone will be talking about for years to come, book BeachNights for your reception and the DJ combo for your other music needs (ceremony, cocktail hour, afterparty). Booking BeachNights for all our music needs was the best decision we made for our wedding day. BeachNights far exceeded our expectations. Chris is so professional, organized, and easy to work with. They have so much experience in all types of venues; you will be glad you have a band who knows exactly what they need to do to put on a seamless performance. They keep the music process worry-free so you can focus on other aspects of wedding planning. A piece of unsolicited advice if I may, book BeachNights for everything: ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, afterparty. It was so much easier being able to talk to ONE person and coordinate all music through ONE group rather than having 4 music vendors involved in the planning process. They take time to learn about you as a couple, your music wants and needs, likes and dislikes so that every single song is exactly what you want and how you pictured your music on your wedding day. THANK YOU Chris and team for making our wedding dreams come true!

Siobhan Stanton Photography

Hastings-on-hudson, NY
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves Shelton, CT

It's not every day you get all dressed up, and spend hours having someone follow you around with a camera. At least, not for most people! I am there to guide you every step of the way! Whether it is a family photoshoot or your wedding day, we will laugh, have fun, and create beautiful memories that will be captured for you to look back on!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Siobhan to shoot our engagement pictures and wedding was hands down the best decision we made. Siobhan is efficient, organized, friendly, and knows how to ease nerves and help you truly enjoy your day. After our initial call, I felt like I had known her for years, and knew she was the absolute best person to bring our wedding vision to life. And she without a doubt knocked it out of the park! The engagement shoot allowed us to get to know one another, her working style, and she made it fun! She posed us in a way that made us feel so comfortable, and each image turned out incredible. Doing this shoot before our wedding only further eased our nerves on the big day! On wedding day, she had Heather as her co-shooter, and both were a joy to work with. Siobhan came to the girls suite and immediately went to work, keeping us on time and really capturing the fun morning we were having. Once we got to the venue, we were on a pretty tight schedule, but you'd never know with how Siobhan and Heather were keeping things on track. We were able to get all of our family, wedding party, and portrait shots done early, so we could enjoy our full cocktail hour and evening. She didn't miss a beat and was there to capture any random pictures we wanted her to, as well as alllll of the candids to truly capture the love and fun of the evening. We received a TON of sneak peeks literally the next day, and every single one of them was incredible. She isn't just your photographer that day - she will be your friend too, ensuring you look and feel your best. If you are considering her for your wedding, it will be the best decision you will make!

I was so happy to have her there for all of it, and the photos turned out absolutely stunning.

Meg's work speaks for itself - she is so talented at what she does! She was amazing to work with from the first time I reached out to her to the big day. I sent over some ideas prior to my hair trial and after sharing a picture of my dress, she helped me pick the perfect style to match it. It made the trail so easy and minimal changes had to be made to achieve the perfect look. On the big day, she was on time, professional, and so much fun to work with. 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!

Essie Cohen Makeup LLC 

5.0

Katonah, NY
  • Beauty professional
  • Serves Shelton, CT

I have loved doing makeup since I was in middle school, always an artist and creative and when I discovered makeup it seemed The world aligned. My passion for people and sharing experiences with my clients and my love for makeup makes this my favorite thing I’ve ever done. My relationships with my clients is my favorite part.

Essie was my makeup artist for my June 22, 2024 wedding, and I simply cannot recommend her enough. She is thoughtful, kind, and incredibly professional with her brides. Though she has done hundreds (or maybe even thousands?) of weddings, she took the time to personalize my look for ME, and to encourage me to be honest if I wanted any tweaks. Her energy is so calm and positive- the exact thing you need in a hectic bridal suite. She worked FAST and even kept us ahead of schedule- which I believe is unheard of for the wedding day! Her assistant Riley made skin prep a total dream, and many of my bridesmaids said it was the best professional makeup they've ever received. However, Essie became more than a makeup artist throughout my planning process. When our photographer needed to cancel, she saw my post in a bridal FB group and immediately texted me to send about 25 photography recs- following up to be sure I'd found someone. When I posted in that same group asking for help finding a sponsor for our country club venue, Essie jumped in to help. She went WAY above and beyond what a vendor does for a client, and instead acted as a genuine friend. It's hard to fully put into words how wonderful she is, but booking with Essie is a no-brainer.

On the day of the wedding, she's on top of everything and made sure everything go exactly according to plan. She also took time to make sure we were eating, drinking, and having a good time.

I'm a Vermont-based photographer that specializes in weddings, families, and seniors. Why? Because there’s nothing quite like feeling the exhilarating energy, gentle love, and infinite kindness within a family.

Julie/Maple Leaf Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. Her communication style is easygoing yet direct, and she clearly knows her craft inside and out. Julie was very attentive to detail throughout the process - she gave us clear, quick instructions to keep things moving smoothly on our big day. She deeply values capturing high quality photos, and her passion and skill truly shined through in the final products that beautifully encapsulated special moments from our wedding. Some examples that stood out: Julie has a knack for keeping subjects comfortable and collected amidst the hustle and bustle of a hectic wedding day. She always comes fully prepared for anything unexpected. And she has a special eye for finding and framing gorgeous shots. I couldn't recommend Maple Leaf Photography highly enough for wedding photography services!

I reside in Jersey City, New Jersey, serving New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and beyond. I grew up surrounded by family photos. My parents had a professional photography business, Infinity Photography, back in the days of film. My friend asked me to do her senior portraits, so I started my photography business after my parent's business was closed for nearly 20 years. Fun fact, I chose "Grey" because I'm a nerd, and I love Jean Grey - she's my fave X-men. Also, my name is hard to spell, especially when you hear it. It's like "Leah" with a "Tuh."

Taliya gave us the absolute best wedding photography experience. She was extremely professional and quick to answer any questions at any point along the way. She made sure every detail was arranged before hand so there were 0 surprises along the way and day of. Not to mention that the photos turned out phenomenal. She was great at posing and framing to get the best shots and made sure that everything got pictured and captured from our special day. Would recommend 100%

We wanted to use him for one of his other services because we were so thankful for winning the photo booth. He just started in the wedding industry not too long ago, but he is an absolute dream to work with !! Even with eveything changing with COVID he has stayed consistent. Having our zoom meetings with him actually got me excited for our wedding again that we had in January. I was always able to reach him if I had any questions.

This inspired us to shift our focus and create Avenue Design Studio, a full-service event planning and design company. Whether you’re looking for full-service planning or just need assistance with specific aspects, we provide multiple packages and a la carte options to fit your needs. You dream it, we create it.

We had so many crazy things happen with our venue the weekend of the wedding. Chad and his team made it easy and stress free for me as the bride to focus on myself and my family and friends and not all the hardship that was happening that day. From the beautiful design and setup of the event, to the management of all the vendors, it was a beautiful and stress free 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.

Nikki is the BEST! It was so easy to start working with her, and I did her pre-wedding facial package for brides that she offers which was great. My trial was great, and I was happy to pull up photos/videos of her prior work that definitely helped in guiding our convo before she got to work on my look. It goes without saying, but she is sooo talented as a MUA. In all of my appointments with her I NEVER felt like she was rushing--she really takes her time which is so appreciated. On the day of the wedding I offered some thoughts on minor adjustments I wanted from the trial, and she applied them EXACTLY. All of my bridesmaids (a good amount of which don't normally get makeup done) were obsessed with their makeup, and even after dancing through the whole night it still looked great. I can't recommend working with Nikki enough!!!

In 2013 I found myself fusing my love for art and flowers when I began working in floral design. I quickly fell in love with the ritual of creating with fresh florals. In the years since, I've had the opportunity to hone my skills and style and provide unique and gorgeous designs for some wonderful couples.

Lauren was amazing. She did flowers for my bridal shower and wedding. I knew the colors I wanted but not really specifics. She asked me questions and then was able to get ideas and offer several options for me to choose from. Everything was immaculate from the rich reds and the pops from the bamboo. I loved them and got compliments from tons of guests/family.

Justin was very responsive and easy to connect with leading up to the day, and accommodated all of our requests and needs with ease. They were also very helpful with recommendations based on extensive experience, and even allowed the bride's sister to play their keyboard for the ceremony, which was an over-and-above request they did not have to agree to.

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!

I work hard to form a real connection with each of my clients to craft an experience that captures their unique spirit.

Ashley is so perceptive and talented! I told her a little bit about us and our style and she created the right balance between moodiness and fun that we wanted. She always got back to us just under 24 hours and answered every question that we had. She is dedicated to her clients and their needs. I enjoyed being in her company because she made us feel comfortable. She understood our needs and never pressured us to do anything out of our comfort zone. We are a more laid back, care-free couple, so we gave Ashley lots of space to experiment and it definitely paid off. If nothing else has convinced you, we have already booked our 1 year anniversary photos with her and I will continue to go back to her for any event that should be photographed.

Yasss Sweet Tea!! I got married in Lake George earlier this month and had the pleasure of being serenaded by Lori and Scott of Sweet Tea for two days! Not only did they make our laid back/campy chill rehearsal BBQ amazing but they transformed themselves into this elegant wedding duo the next day at our wedding . They totally fit the vibe for both the rehearsal BBQ and the wedding! They can sing anything and I mean anything! From huge power ballads, fun dance songs to chill feel good tunes. I am so happy to write this review because the world must know about them!! Aside from their talent, they are just fun humans! If you’re looking for professional talent, fun and laid back people who are soooo easy to work with (and believe me this is a giant BONUS)- hire these two! Thank you Lori and Scott , we had the best time!

Hi I'm Jackie, and I literally love my job! I’m a New England-based photographer for the last 18 years. I have to admit though, I love taking this one woman show on the road and travel makes me the happiest. I have been lucky enough to shoot destination weddings in England, Iceland, and Alaska. I would describe my photography style as very laid back and natural. The little in between moments make for the best photos, and I’m not about capturing awkward prom poses and forced smiles. I want the real stuff - the stuff that’ll make you laugh till your cheeks hurt and will make your heart beat faster.

Jackie was absolutely wonderful working with us, especially with changes due to COVID. She was so understanding and thoughtful that it really made any problems we faced with COVID that much easier. She will put in more time and effort than needed and it will show because our photos came out stunning. I am absolutely in love with them. She will make sure what you want is taken care of and then go above and beyond. I cannot even tell you how easy she made our wedding day. We had no worries when it came to our photos! I would recommend her to everyone!

BOOK BRITT! She is a phenomenal photographer and an equally amazing human. I must have reached out to 30 photographers during my initial search, and she stuck out to me right away. Britt is so easy to talk to, provides honest advice on all aspects of the wedding planning process, and was so professional the day of our wedding. She took charge to make sure everyone was where we needed to be, but she also kept such a calm demeanor the entire time. And her photos? Incredible. I told her initially that I wanted photos that made me remember what I was feeling when the picture was taken, and she 100% delivered. I can’t believe how lucky we are that these photos get to stay with us for the rest of our lives. You absolutely should book Britt Hill Photo; you won’t be disappointed.

We are so happy to have hired Angelica and her team. From the start she listened to what we needed, catered to our vision for our wedding photos, and delivered breathtaking images. Any questions we had she answered, so it was great to have quick communication with her, as most of our vendors took almost a week to get back to us! We go through our photos all the time, and I can honestly say our wedding photos are so much better than my friend's photos! We also had a full album and parent albums in our collection. Our main album came in a gorgeous wooden box. Our parent's album were custom created for them, instead of a replica. We even got a few large photos to decorate our home. They are absolutely gorgeous! We were very happy we did purchase them and Angelica delivered them within two to three months from our wedding! Thanks to her always following up with us, we were able to get our albums designed, our wall art photos chosen, and helped us guide our parents as to what photos to choose for their albums. I have friends still waiting for their albums and photos and it's been almost a year. You can't go wrong with Angelica Criscuolo Photography. She's sweet, a professional, and when it came time to family photos, she was the boss and took charged! We loved it as we have a very boisterous family. Thank you Angelica!

Regina and her husband were absolutely amazing! I can't say enough how thankful I am that I chose them to do my wedding. Not only are they the sweetest people and so easy to work with, but my photos are absolutely stunning. I keep getting comments from all my family and friends about how beautiful the photos look. I already have some friends that are getting married ask about her because they loved the photos so much. Photos are important because they really capture the moments that you want to remember forever and I have had some friends that did not get great photos at their weddings. It is important to choose someone that is really going to capture the moments, take amazing pictures AND someone who makes you feel comfortable. They are the perfect mixture of professional and friendly. You have to choose Regina & her husband and I promise you will be SO thankful you did.

The Love Revival Orchestra was truly an enormous highlight of our wedding day! The band played for our cocktail hour with a talented Jazz Trio, a parade to get our guests into the reception (so cool and lots of kudos from the guests!!), and an outstanding reception performance. There was not one moment that the dance floor was empty and they truly brought the best energy and talent. Music was one of our biggest priorities for the wedding day and our expectations were blown away. David was very collaborative, helping us to plan the perfect set list and answering all of our questions leading up to the day. We were also so appreciative that the band was able to not only learn but perform incredible renditions of our first dance song, and themes from Vanderpump and Star Wars (truly amazing live!). The Love Revival Orchestra is a truly incredibly talented band that played everything from The Beatles to The Cranberries to Taylor Swift and so much more. We are so grateful for everything and have the highest recommendation for Love Revival Orchestra.

Let me tell y’all - we had our wedding in a state we don’t live in, so it was very much a “trust the process and trust our vendors” kind of situation. Drew came THROUGH!!! She was so patient with us and made sure we had exactly what we wanted for our wedding cake, and oh my goodness was it delicious! My spouse and I had never eaten a wedding cake that 1) tasted so good, or 2) was that fluffy and moist. We were also able to get some allergy-friendly cupcakes, and they tasted exactly like the rest of the cake. We’re so glad we trusted Drew with our wedding cake and hope we have a reason to get a cake from them again soon!!

Video exists in my life as an extension of everything I love about photography. Something drew me to it, and with the ever expanding video modes of my photo cameras, practice became commonplace. Being able to tell storying audibly as well as visually adds a level of depth that is hard to reach within photography. You can feel the story take you through a place in time. Moment capturing in all its beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m not sure if Alex knows this, but the first wedding I ever shot was with him and I was so nervous! Transitioning into weddings has not been easy but Alex was so kind and helpful. He never once made me feel inferior or uneducated (can’t say that for everyone I’ve worked with). I don’t care if you’re the best photographer in the world- if you’re an a**hole I don’t want to work with you. Looking at Alex’s portfolio, it’s obvious he’s a great photographer. More importantly, he’s relaxed, gentle and easygoing. Ive seen him pivot when the skies opened up and started downpouring 5 minutes before an outdoor ceremony was set to start and he never once panicked. Know that out of all the stressful things that can happen when planning and executing a wedding, photography won’t be one of them with Alex on your team. I look forward to working together again.

But he captured life- he captured the moments of my wedding. The pictures have facial expressions because he took the pictures in a natural state.

Hi, I’m Nicole (she/her) - a Rhode Island-based wedding photographer. I have more than a decade of experience shooting weddings of all kinds - and today, I work collaboratively with my couples to create photos that evoke how their day felt. Photos of honest and emotional interactions; small details that hold weight and meaning; effortless portraits that capture the feel of the surrounding space or landscape. The result is a narrative visual story of enduring human connections, and a chronicle of emotional moments that they can revisit time and time again.

I worked with Nicole for one of my very first video jobs at a wedding in Newport, RI. I can say having her as one of my first colleagues was a blessing! The way she treated all the vendors and the families at the wedding was admirable. She is extremely kind and welcoming and went above and beyond to assist the bride with anything that arose. I learned so much from her about being a true professional in the wedding industry. She is not only skilled at her craft but also at striking that perfect balance between organized and flexible. Nicole is a true team player and I would recommend her to anyone who wants a genuine, authentic, and easy going wedding photographer!

I am a wedding photographer with 8+ years experience in the business, although my photographic journey began years before that. For as long as I can remember, I have had a passion for travel and landscape photography. Today my wedding photography is deeply influenced by the natural beauty found in the scenery around us, as well as the important moments between a couple. I am also a science and math teacher, and I have a background in Marine Biology. I think one reason I am a good wedding photographer is my keen sense of observation and attention to detail! Whenever I have free time I love to cook and travel with my wife, brew beer, and run.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Matthew for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. From the initial call, every step of the process was seamless, organized, and professional. Matthew made us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the day. Even during our first look, we truly felt like it was just the two of us and that we could be ourselves without cameras in our faces. During your wedding, you are with your photographer all day long, and to have someone as calm and patient as Matthew is a must. One of the things we appreciated most was Matthew's ability to blend in with our guests while still managing to capture all the key moments. He were unobtrusive yet always in the right place at the right time. The photos that we have already seen capture so much emotion and joy that take us back to moments we shared. In addition to the amazing photos, Matthew went above and beyond printing two photos for us and placing the photos in frames the very night of our wedding. This extra step and attention to detail is a testament to his passion for the work and care for his clients. We highly recommend Matthew to anyone looking for a wedding photographer who will go above and beyond to ensure your day is captured perfectly. Thank you, Matthew, for giving us such beautiful memories of our special day!

I met Jamie while he was DJing at a venue in Manhattan many moons ago. I was immediately pleased with the music he chose and went up to the booth and we got to talking about music and art. He was so easy going and truly in tune with the beat of the venue. We kept in touch and I then went to several more of his venues where he was DJing with friends and also with my (now) husband. When we decided to get married and keep it really small our one must-have was excellent music because we love dancing but are not fans of standard wedding DJ music. I immediately contacted Jamie and on short notice he was able to schedule a meeting with us to discuss our needs. Jamie came prepared with a list of questions and helped us work through the different moods we wanted to set and organized the music choices. We gave him some ideas and he did the legwork of deciding what specific songs would lead into each of the unique parts of a wedding and reception (dancing, eating, more dancing, only the young people dancing, etc.). To this day my husband and I talk about how much fun we had at our wedding and how we were really able to make every piece of it ours - right down to the music that was not pulled off some Billboard chart but that truly reflected us and the people in our lives. In fact Jamie was so great the venue asked if he would be willing to come back and DJ some of their future events :)
