Golden Door Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Shirley, MA

I'm California laid back, with a bit of New England hustle. I love to be near water and to read books on real paper. (But my Kindle is cool too.) I've listened to the Hamilton soundtrack about 300 times. When it comes to love, I believe commitment and unconditional acceptance are more powerful than fate. I've been told I'm kind of a photo ninja - I'm magically everywhere that the action is, but never obtrusive or in the way. (Coolest compliment, right?)

This was our 2nd wedding so we planned a fun & casual reception at Night Shift Brewery. Shaina was amazing & her photos perfectly captured the vibe of our celebration. Her pictures of our friends and family were fantastic. She also got some great shots of the decor & food (which was such a blur, so I’m happy we have photos!) Shaina fit in perfectly with our guests. I highly recommend!

Elizabeth Willis Photo 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Shirley, MA

I'm a hybrid film + digital photographer who loves squishing baby cheeks and is terrible at making the bed. I'm a glass-half-full kind of gal who loves naming and caring for my plant babies, creating new cocktail recipes, the color yellow, and twinkle lights. Collaborating with clients to make images that tell your story is what drives my art. I strive to be inclusive, so if you aren't seeing yourself reflected in my portfolio, I aim to change that to make sure others feel seen too. I'm a sucker for weddings that include pieces of family history and love creating images that will be dog-eared and adored for generations to come.

I've worked with Elizabeth Willis Photos as a client and as a professional in the wedding industry. I'm a florist in the wedding industry and Elizabeth shot a wedding we both worked on. I was thrilled with the photos that I got back of my work. Not everyone can capture the beauty of flowers. It sounds funny, but there is a special talent for it, and Elizabeth has it. Not only did she capture the flowers beautifully, but all the soft and quiet moments of the couple as well. Once I saw that, I knew I had to book her for a family session. The session was comfortable and fun. I'm usually pretty awkward in photos, so I was completely prepared to have trouble picking the ones I liked. When the proofs were delivered, there was so many good photos to choose from that I elected to purchase more than what was included in the package. I will forever cherish the photos she took of my family!

Paul Keeffe

  • Videographer

  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves Shirley, MA

I have always loved people, and their stories. Wedding films through my eyes are the perfect way to paint two peoples stories onto a canvas of sight and sound, that will carry on their legacy through generations. A day of true love and family.

Paul is ON IT. I was lucky enough to work alongside him for a wedding in Cancun, Mexico, where I was on photo and he was video. He was nothing short of professional when dealing with myself, venue staffing, and most importantly, the couple to be wed. He worked closely with the couple to ensure that there was a perfect union of what they wanted captured mixed with his artistic vision. Paul is creative, knowledgeable, timely, prepared, flexible, autonomous, and a joy to shoot with. No matter what obstacles were thrown at us in the day, he swiftly adapted and remained positive throughout. Apart from being an incredible photographer/cinematographer who will always deliver, Paul brings an infectious energy to the room that makes those involved feel natural and relaxed--which is made apparent in the products delivered. As an artist myself, I am always floored by his results, and am so looking forward to working with him again!

Danielle Does Photos

  • Photographer

  • Serves Shirley, MA

Hi, I’m Danielle! I'm from Massachusetts and currently live in Chelmsford with my fiancé and our cat, Darryl Strawberry. I'm a very easy-going, positive person who is always looking on the bright side of things. I like to stay busy and I work a lot, but I balance my work with time in nature, trips to the sauna, and classes at the gym. I lived in Spain for 5 years and am fluent in Spanish. I have traveled quite a bit (and still do!) and love to explore new places & meet awesome people! I love nights in cooking & bingeing shows with my fiancé (currently watching What We Do in the Shadows).

I can't say enough amazing things about Danielle! She beautifully captured every meaningful moment of our wedding. She is professional, timely, easy to communicate with, and incredibly talented! She created the perfect balance of a few posed photos paired with tons of stunning candids. Looking through our album afterwards, my husband and I were in awe of how it felt like she was always in the right place at the right time to capture every detail of our day. It allowed my husband and I to just be in the moment to soak everything in. Our photos far exceeded our expectations and we are so happy to have chosen Danielle to perfectly tell the story of us!

Aux Boston

  • Starts at $1,400
  • Serves Shirley, MA

AUX Boston has the couple in mind who is looking for someone to capture their day in music in the same way you'd search for a wedding photographer to tell your story in a way that reflects you perfectly. A lot of time & care goes into your relationship, and so we know a lot of care goes into selecting the best "support team" on & before your big day. When it comes to music and MC'ing for your wedding, AUX Boston deeply cares about every aspect involved.

I had requested a not traditional reception, I wanted the reception to feel like a club and they absolutely delivered playing the music I had requested! Everyone was on the dance floor. I even greatly appreciated them taking pictures of when we were dancing, it gave us a lot more fond memories to look back on. They had great communication, very professional, and helped pump up the energy when it was needed!

Dearly Studio 

5.0

Somerville, MA
  • Venue
  • Up to 20 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $300

Dearly Studio is a courthouse alternative for couples who want a no-fuss ceremony that's still personal, elegant and fun. The concept for Dearly Studio is novel, but not new — plenty of little chapels exist outside Las Vegas, and giddy couples have been skipping over to their local courthouse since forever. What makes Dearly so special is the care that goes into crafting each ceremony, the community of vendors we’re lucky to be surrounded by at Bow Market and the flexibility of our packages to provide a bespoke experience. Cookie cutter weddings are OUT, friends. Time for big feelings, small weddings and a celebration that’s uniquely yours.

Dearly Studio is such a unique and fun place to get married. It was such a stress free and great way to have our wedding ceremony with our family present. We were able to customize our whole experience, including music and adding flowers that were ready to go right at the start of the ceremony. We also booked our photographer, Carlie, through Dearly, and were so happy with how everything turned out. I highly recommend Dearly Studio!

We can’t wait to see our “speed photo” results — be sure to ask Ken about it for your wedding! We have received so many compliments about our wedding — it was so much fun and our guests are raving. Thank you, ATOC, for helping us plan the party of the year!

Bluebird Bouquets 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Shirley, MA

My passion for floristry began at a young age alongside the caring guidance of my grandmother. To me, flowers tell a story of family, about who we are and where we come from. Today, Bluebird Bouquets shares these meaningful moments with others through thoughtfully crafted floral pieces for life's special moments.

It’s challenging to put into words how much we loved all our wedding flowers and how well they captured our personalities and suited the settings we chose for our ceremony and reception. We’ve been fans of Haley’s work via the Boston Women’s Market for several years now because of her unique and vibrant arrangements that blend classic style with innovative combinations and silhouettes, and she was the first person we thought of for floral arrangements when we started to plan our wedding. Working with Haley is such a delight! She was very patient with us since we don’t know much about flowers ourselves, and was able to create truly stunning arrangements given our chosen colors and themes. We also thought it was really special how she was able to make arrangements for each of our wedding party members that would suit them; we both had all-gender wedding parties and Haley was able to provide boutonnières, bouquets, and cuffs for party members depending on their roles and preferences. As the bride and groom, our favorite parts were the two large arraignments that framed our ceremony and added a lot of personality and definition to our wedding photos. Haley even delivered our flowers to the ceremony and reception venues on the day of our wedding. We didn’t have to worry about a thing! We would highly recommend her for any event.

When Nicole is not in the studio you can find her working on-location for weddings all over the New England area! NMG Hair Artistry works with other top bridal hair and makeup artists in the area to accommodate a wedding party of any size.

I am so grateful to have been able to work with Nicole for my wedding on 9/9. She was so professional and responsive from the time I first reached out to her, not to mention kind and patient! Nicole took the time to talk with me before I booked her, and I am so glad I did. I knew I wanted a low bun but wasn't sure of the exact details (behind the ears or not, what kind of bun, etc). She walked me through what was realistic to do with my hair and showed me a few different styles. I felt so good going into the wedding, and am thrilled at how amazing my hair was! It was better than I could have imagined. My hair stayed perfectly in place all night, after taking the veil in/out, through hot/humid pictures, crowdsurfing and hours of dancing. My bridesmaids also all looked incredible and keep saying how much they loved Nicole and Megan (her second stylist). My mom, MIL and grandma also had their hair done and were so happy and looked beautiful. Nicole and Megan were both so professional and calming the day of the wedding - which was greatly appreciated. I truly cannot recommend Nicole enough - if you're thinking of booking her, do it - and fast!!

I am a hairstylist + bridal specialist who has been in the industry for over 14 years. With each head of hair I style I fall more in love with what I do! The reward of making a woman step out of my chair feeling more beautiful than ever is what keeps my passion alive. I want to make choosing myself as your stylist one of the easiest choices you will make throughout this wedding process. I pride myself not only in my work but by making my clients day fun, relaxing + memorable!

I do not have enough good things to say about Ashlee and Tammy. They did my hair 8 bridesmaids two moms and everyone looked amazing. I am not sure I have ever been to/been part of a wedding where every single person loved their hair until my wedding. We had every range of hair types and they worked with each person to create a beautiful hairstyle that they were comfortable with. Everyone looked absolutely perfect. Also, they are also both just really FUN. They made the whole day great, cannot recommend them enough!!

  • Starts at $1,550

The Pierce House, an architectural gem, is part of a stunning vintage estate, located on more than 30 tranquil acres of pastoral rolling lawns, woodlands, and ponds, less than 30 minutes west of Boston. Built in 1900, and located within the Historic District in Lincoln, Massachusetts, Pierce House has the distinction of being listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Respecting the wishes of John H. Pierce, who bequeathed the mansion and property to the Town of Lincoln, the venue welcomes the local community and beyond as a place for year-round recreation, weddings, corporate and social events, art shows, car shows, summer concerts, movie filming among others.

The Pierce House was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From our first meeting with Jenn, the venue manager, she made us feel like the Pierce House was our home for our wedding day. Jenn was warm, attentive, and responsive throughout the entire planning process, answering any questions we had and making helpful suggestions. On the big day itself, Jenn went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. The venue itself is simply stunning - an elegant, antique home that has indescribable charm. The grounds are immaculately kept, the porch is perfect for a first look, and the tent is fantastic. We received so many compliments from our guests on our venue choice. If you're looking for a venue where the manager treats you like family and the venue is beyond gorgeous- the Pierce House is a great choice.

Cambridge Boat Club 

5.0

Cambridge, MA
  • Venue
  • Up to 120 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $4,000

Cambridge Boat Club is a social and rowing club, located on the banks of the Charles River overlooking Eliot Bridge. Originally built in 1909, CBC was picked up in its entirety and rolled upstream to its current location in 1947, to make room for the building of Memorial Drive. Featuring vaulted ceilings and dark exposed beams akin to a ski chalet, and double french doors opening to a full length veranda, CBC offers a unique, rustic setting for any event.

The Cambridge Boat Club was the perfect choice for our New England fall-themed wedding! It is an absolutely gorgeous location on the river with just the right amount of historic charm. We had originally considered going with all-inclusive venues, but ultimately opted for the flexibility we had with the CBC to craft our own vision. The venue features two distinct rooms, a larger room called the Drinkwater room, which can be used for the wedding dinner, the Club Room, which was used for cocktail hour and the dance floor, and a porch, which has a stunning view. The layout perfectly accommodated both the party enthusiasts and our more introverted guests, who preferred quieter spaces for rest and socialization away from the dance floor. Opting for this venue requires a more DIY approach compared to all-inclusive options. Since it is a historic building, there are some restrictions to be aware of, e.g. no sparklers or ceiling drapery, and existing wall decor generally need to stay on the wall. This was no issue for us since we had a clear vision for the wedding theme and decor, and enlisted the help of Tastings Catering (highly recommend, since they have previous experience working in this space and also handle some of the decor) and Designlight. Major shoutout to Katie Donnelly, the club manager at Cambridge Boat Club, who always responded in record time to all our inquiries and provided helpful guidance. With everyone's help, we were able to create the wedding of our dreams!

hey I'm Vanessa - wedding and elopement photographer based in Boston but documenting love celebrations all over New England and also the WORLD. You can always find me cuddling my dog like it’s my human child, watching Friends, eating pizza & going on spontaneous road trips with my husband. I love traveling and getting to know new places - I'm also a huge homebody who enjoy a day at home doing nothing. I really love plants, museums, documentaries, painting with watercolor, antiques and being weird in general. I'm a simple person with a huge heart and I love what I do & everybody I get to work with! Also dogs > people.

We cannot recommend Vanessa enough - I will be singing her praises until the end of time. She has such a gift with the camera, and the memories she captured for us from our engagement shoot, elopement and family celebration/reception will be cherished forever! She is so kind and warm, and really helped us to feel comfortable in front of the camera.

Traveling is my favorite past-time, or should I say future-time (is that a thing?) since I’m always look for new places to experience. I love pizza – like could eat pizza every night for dinner and always watching pizza review videos kind of love. I have two dogs, one who is my best friend, and the other, who is that dog’s best friend. At weddings, you can usually find me singing along to your favorite songs. I promise I won’t sing that loud – because I’m not that good. I’ll be there to teach you how to tie your first bow tie, keep you hydrated, and make sure you remember to take time for yourselves. That’s what it’s all about anyways, you.

From the moment we met Stephen (from Instagram) at our engagement photo shoot, our minds were put completely at ease. We felt comfortable with him and like we could be ourselves. No question we asked him, and there were plenty, seemed to bother him or shake him. He was SO friendly and SO easy to work with - always answering email after email promptly and being available no matter what came up. A HUGE relief for a bride. Our wedding day was a bit hectic as we were pressed for time and the setting of the sun (November wedding) but Stephen was right on top of it and got us the most perfect photos. He helped move things along smoothly to ensure we stayed on time with our venue. Again, he felt like a FRIEND - like someone we were happy was a part of special day and he blended/fit right in! He even offered my mom his coat when we were outside taking photos in the cold. My husband and I highly, highly recommend Stephen for several reasons: 1. his stunning, natural photos that capture the pure joy, excitement and love between a couple (not like those over-edited or over-posed photos you see on IG) 2. his professionalism was unmatched. 3. through the months we spent chatting with him, Stephen felt like a friend and someone we trusted which was SO important because he was part of one of the most important/intimate days of our lives. We're SO thankful and highly recommend Stephen to anyone who is looking for stunning, natural photos to capture their day or occasion!

I learned photography 10+ years ago in the darkroom at my high school. From there, I was hooked. Fast-forward to being fresh out of college, in a new city, and needing new friends. I found an amazing group who also loved photography. We traveled abroad and across the country together, sharing our travel photos all over Instagram (which, had just become all the hype). That was all it took for my first couple to ask me to photograph their wedding. I'm now a full-time hybrid wedding photographer!

The best decision David and I made during our wedding planning was hiring Halie for our wedding photography. She is so amazing at what she does and so organized with it! Which is something we have in common, I am super Type-A so the relationship I built with Halie was top tier and it made the whole planning process/wedding day a breeze. For David and I, our Rhode Island wedding was a destination as we are from Maryland so this made things a bit more complex with scheduling and understanding the area. When planning our engagement shoot, Halie made perfect suggestions for different locations to satisfy the different vibes I wanted in our pictures. During the shoot, she put us at ease and helped pose us in different ways to get the perfect shot. She also captured family photos for my family and I while we were all in Rhode Island for wedding planning activities. This helped us have an even closer bond with Halie and she got to see some of the family dynamics. All of the photos were absolutely beautiful!!! Between our engagement shoot and our wedding, Halie stayed in constant communication with me and gave me so many good tips/suggestions/ideas throughout the process. She made us a custom photo timeline for the whole wedding day. This was so helpful and we used her photo timeline as our baseline when engaging with all of our other vendors to ensure they were all on the same schedule. Halie captured pictures of our rehearsal dinner and intimate private sailboat ride with our inner circle. It was so fun to have her there to capture all of our New England details that we had spent so much time planning. Once again, she nailed it and got so many great pictures of us and our families! If you are considering adding rehearsal coverage, this is your sign to do it!!! Now for the wedding day, she truly outdid herself! She came fully prepared to dive into all of the shots and was reassuring me when I realized we were running slightly behind schedule. She was like my director that day and I had complete trust in her for all of it. She remained calm, poised, professional throughout all of the wedding day chaos. All of our wedding party was so impressed by Halie's well thought out photography. When we received our sneak peeks, we were just in utter shock!! They were stunning and exactly what we were hoping for. Halie’s photography style is the perfect blend of romantic and timeless. David and I are forever grateful for the memories that Halie and her team captured on our wedding day. We truly cannot recommend Halie enough! She is amazing!

I'm Lauren - a natural light wedding and dog photographer based in Boston and willing to travel all over New England. I have the absolute best job photographing beautiful couples and their adorably, fluffy pups! Being a photographer is more than just a job to me - it's a dream come true! I believe it is an honor to capture your wedding day and I promise never to take that privilege lightly. On your wedding day, I will document the the love and joy, the laughs, the tears, and everything in-between all as your friend and biggest fan. I promise you will have images as bright and as joyful as your love!

We began working with Lauren in 2016 when she started photographing Rich and I and our three pups for holidays, our surprise engagement, and our rehearsal dinner, welcome drinks, and wedding day in August. At no surprise to us, Lauren and her second shooter were a calming presence amidst the excitement on our wedding day. She managed to be everywhere, capturing the big and subtle, candid moments we might have missed. She captured all of our shot requests with patience and grace, wrangling our rowdy wedding parties, and beautifully captured our three dogs, who were not interested in being cooperative that day. Her ability to blend into the background while simultaneously directing and capturing stunning portraits is truly impressive. As always, Lauren's photographs are nothing short of magical. Each image tells a story, evoking all the emotions and memories of that day. I always say you can immediately spot Lauren's photos, as they are always simply breathtaking. Having Lauren as our wedding photographer was a no-brainer, and I can wholeheartedly say it was one of the best decisions we made for our special day. We can't wait to continue working with Lauren and having her capture our family memories for years to come!

Redline 

5.0

  • Musician
  • Serves Shirley, MA

We can all agree that there’s something special about a live band that plays all your favorite songs. That’s Redline. We are that perfectly classic, polished, professional band that is also young, fresh, hip, with an energetic vibe that makes you want to stop the clock and dance all night! That’s Redline.

If you’re thinking about booking Redline for your wedding or, honestly, for any other event, just do it. You don’t need to keep reading; book them. If you need some more convincing, read on. In late 2021 my fiancé and I were looking for a band to play our wedding in December, 2022. Having a great, fun band was crucial to us. We came across Redline both via Instagram and via the Murray Hill talent website and we had a good feeling about them. We reached out via Murray Hill and immediately heard back from Ken. Ken was incredibly friendly in his response and sent over detail on Redline along with other bands that could potentially play for us in case we weren’t locked in on Redline. He also sent along the information for add-ons, including but not limited to uplighting, photo booths, and additional band members (you have to at least consider having someone walking around ripping the saxophone). We ended up booking Redline and the process was totally seamless; again, Ken was super helpful the whole time. We booked the cocktail duo, an 8-piece band including saxophone for the reception, and uplighting. Easy! Throughout the year, Ken was always available to field questions and would offer to have a call if it would be easier. When you’re in the middle of every other aspect of wedding planning, having someone like Ken who is organized, kind, and thoughtful makes things a LOT easier, especially if the band is important to you. All right, let’s fast forward to wedding week. We had sent over a worksheet to Ken earlier with a general outline of the night. Entrance songs, first dance song, etc. along with whether there would be a bouquet toss, cake cutting, etc. It was very detailed which will actually help you visualize how the reception will go. We walked through this with Ken step by step and worked with him to adjust accordingly. Again, with the wedding looming, this was actually a calming experience because of the confidence we had in Ken. The day of the wedding, I didn’t see Ken and the other band members until the cocktail hour because, well, you know, I was getting married. The cocktail hour duo was incredible. They set such a good vibe for the rest of the night and played a cool mix of songs. Compliments were already flowing from the guests. After the cocktail hour, Ken came to where the wedding party was getting ready for intros while guests filed into the ballroom. This was another instance of what you’re getting with Ken and the Redline crew; he worked with the wedding coordinator to get us lined up and ready, get us pumped up, and get us moving. Reception time. From the first dance I had with my now wife, to the last dance of the night (Tiny Dancer- Elton John. Yes, you were curious and yes, it was awesome) everything was perfect. The band was SO good and SO energetic. The mix of songs they played was incredible and this was a wedding where the dance floor was PACKED THE WHOLE TIME with people dancing. It was SO much fun and we still have guests complimenting how great Redline was. Following the wedding weekend, Ken reached out to us with a personalized and heartfelt note about how good of a time the band had and our overall experience together planning over the course of the year. It was just the cherry on top to what was such a wonderful experience. In summary, book Redline, just please don’t book them on the same date as whatever next big event comes my way because I want them to be there to party.
