Changing the game in the wedding industry, Enchanted Celebrations aims to successfully redefine the paradigm of personalization and compassion in each wedding. Whether we are capturing your love story behind a lens or mixing your perfect wedding day soundtrack, Enchanted Celebrations has the experts to create the wedding day vibes you’ve always dreamed of.

We had such an easy time working with Enchanted Celebrations staff that I would jump at choosing them again! Blair and Summer were professional, thorough, empathetic and communicated very clearly all the different features of the videography plans so that we felt like we chose the right plan for our wedding day. As time came closer, Summer was diligent at working with us on the details for the day-of, and then a few days before the wedding we confirmed everything with Edwin, our assigned videographer. Edwin’s style was spot-on with what we imagined and the videos came out beautiful and so much quicker than we expected them. We’re delighted with our experience!

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

Once Like a Spark did an absolutely amazing job capturing both our weddings. We had two weddings as both our families come from different cultures and even with a multi-day wedding weekend they were able to document it in the most beautiful way. Joyce was the photographer we worked with and her eye for detail made our photos something we will treasure the rest of our lives. I would highly recommend OLAS for anyone’s wedding because I know they will do an incredible job!

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving and laughing. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I got you!

Awarded Best of Zola
Lacie was absolutely phenomenal to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. From the moment we jumped on a phone call to see if they were a right fit, I knew they would be. Her enthusiasm, understanding, outgoing way that she relates to people is an energy that you want on your big day. Our engagement session was incredible, she moves so quickly but efficiently, as to ensure you get all the shots you want, but is very mindful of time. Our wedding day was COMPLETE because of Lacie. In addition to her positive attitude, she helped smooth the timeline of events during the day when exterior factors were impacting the photography, and problem solved so wonderfully on the spot. She stepped in to help in moments that were above and beyond what we hired her for, and for that I am truly grateful. Her photography style is versatile and beautiful, specifically catered to your preference. I can't imagine a better photographer for our wedding and we are so grateful!

Besides designing for you, I also offer DIY Wood Flower Experiences to create your wedding florals alongside me in person or virtually and 1:1 sessions to help DIY brides learn to do it themselves.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jen was AMAZING to work with! When it came to flowers for my wedding, I had NO IDEA what I wanted. She was very patient with me and helped talk me through my vision. She gave me flowers to pick from, talked about how big I wanted my bouquet and how much greenery I wanted, and then when I could find colors I liked in swatches, she color-matched the colors I wanted from an inspo pic I found online! She was very professional and patient with me, even when my plans changed or I needed to add to my order.  I am not the best at putting together a bouquet. I am also someone who likes control, especially when it came to planning my wedding. I was thankful that I was able to give Jen the reins, tell her what I wanted, and watch her make my dreams come true. When I first saw my flowers, I was speechless. She truly did make my floral dreams come true, and now I get to keep my bouquet for the rest of my life! A wooden flower bouquet from Jen is the way to go!

Then, on our wedding day, they kept the dancefloor packed with their impressive performance and relentless energy (they even managed to get some of our shyest guests dancing!).

I am a Connecticut-based wedding and portrait photographer obsessed with candid moments, real emotion, and the connections between human beings. I strive to capture life as we actually live it: full of beauty and roughness, joy and struggle, extravagance and simplicity. When I photograph you, I’m not thinking about getting likes on social media. I’m thinking about what will make your heart grow three times its size. I’m thinking about what will make you ugly-cry, looking back. I’m thinking about you seeing how awesome and truly loved you are.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a queer couple, it was important to us to have a photographer who understood gay magic. We didn’t want staged, posed, traditional photos because that’s not who we are and not what life (and marriage) is about. Cate’s photos of our wedding captured the beauty of genuine laughter, vulnerability of a hand gripping a speech behind a back, and the honesty of candid moments between friends. Hiring Cate was the SECOND best decision I made that day!

Grace was just amazing. For a day that was overwhelming and very stressful, I cannot thank her enough for her calm and kindness. My now husband and I are usually not "photo people", as we tend to be more introverts than anything else, and she went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. Her professionalism and guidance during the shoot can be described as more than stellar. I will definitely recommend her to all of my friends who will be getting married soon. During all the chaos, I was extremely thankful to have chosen her as our photographer.

My husband and I were originally going to skip out on hiring a videographer for our wedding until we saw Ben's work. We wanted something special and we were lucky to stumble across his page to find exactly what we were looking for. On the day of the wedding Ben was getting some shots of the getting ready moments and I (the bride) started to get nervous. It didn't take long for Ben to jump in and calm me down as we awaited the big moment. We hired a videographer, but got more than that. He shared his own experiences and reassured me that our day was running smoothly the entire time he was there. His work truly is incredible and that alone should encourage you to hire him, but if you need more of a reason let the fact that he truly cares about the couple be enough. We can't thank Ben enough for everything he has done for us and we will never forget our wedding day because of him!

Just absolutely outstanding, every step of the way. We hired Ariana and her company to play music for our entire wedding (ceremony & reception). A string quartet and drummer. Wouldn't hesitate to hire them again. Our guests were both surprised and filled with wonder at how the music fit seamlessly with the wedding: that's the beauty of the art and the professionalism that that Ariana String Groups brings. Ariana's group learned a new song especially for me, and it meant so much for me to hear it at the wedding (Both Sides Now, by Joni Mitchell). One of the incredible things about Ariana and her company is that they aren't just about the music: they help you every step of the way. We needed help and advice on many "things wedding" and Ariana not only helped us make decisions, but she and her team stepped up and coordinated when we needed help. Music is extremely important in my life, but I had some very specific requirements for the wedding because of my own needs. Ariana never hesitated - she was a true partner. It was a blessing to not have to worry about something I needed to go right. Fabulous.

Hi, my name is Antonia! I am a bubbly and passionate freelance makeup artist based out of Massachusetts (Don’t worry, I travel all over New England for my services). With over many years of experience for special occasion makeup application, I decided to take it to the next step and specialize in my favorite makeup, bridal glam! My priority is to help people feel confident and beautiful through the power of makeup. When I am not creating looks, I’m either playing with new techniques, exploring the latest trends or spending time with my loved ones.

Being able to have Antonia do my make up was easy and so comfortable. I wasn't prepared with any of my own make up and being a Black Woman I was worried there wouldn't be the right colors. Antonia blended up some foundation and got an exact color match! I also HATE false lashes, BUT she put them on with such ease I couldn't even tell I was wearing them! Professionalism was glamorous just like my make up! Highly recommend and would book again! 100/10

I started my business in 2018, after I finished floral design classes from Cass School of Floral in Watertown, MA. I have had hands on experience from Floral Arts in Westford, MA and have completed over 75 weddings in my time as a floral designer. I have a little intern named Larry, a corgi-pit mix, who is the model for Little Blooms, who you will see a lot of on Instagram. I love using locally grown flowers as much as I can in my work, to really showcase 'farm to florist'.

Awarded Best of Zola
Danielle at Little Blooms Floral is a true pro. Her work is beautiful and she was so easy (even fun!) to work with. She made planning easy, is a clear communicator, and takes the stress out of planning. She drastically exceeded expectations, and everyone commented on how beautiful our flowers were. Can’t recommend her enough!

If you're the kind of couple that would prefer their photographer feel like one of the guests as opposed to a paparazzi, and if when the neighbors complain about the noise, you just invite them to the party, keep reading. I take a documentary-style approach to my weddings. Roaming with a camera, I capture the candid moments and small details that make your wedding unique to you, while making sure to set aside time for a few special portraits.

We had Steph shoot our civil wedding in BK. She was so easy to work with. Made us feel so comfortable and captured us beautifully in a really intimate and special moment. It is a no brainer to recommend her to anyone looking to record an important milestone while feeling completely like themselves!!

We chose Nathan as our main shooter because we just loved his classic, elegant style. My friend had used Nathan for her 2019 wedding and her photos were beautiful. Needless to say, we made the right decision. Our wedding photos are breathtaking and I could not ask for anything better! Nathan is professional, easy going, kind, and has a wonderful eye for imagery. The poses, angles, etc are amazing. I was afraid I would look awkward, or pose funny and he just makes you feel comfortable and pretend like he isn't there, but the photos are natural, elegant, classy. He also captured all the photo combos and and then some with my family and bridal party. Do not hesitate with reaching out to Nathan. Your photos will be beautiful!

Working with Muse Art Co. was an absolute dream. Sara is a ray of sunshine and brought so much joy and positivity throughout the entire process. As someone who didn't have a super strong vision for the florals, Sara guided me every step of the way and I was able to fully trust her to execute her vision. She did not disappoint! Everything from the centerpieces to the arch were absolutely perfect. Not to mention, my bouquet was one of the most stunning I have ever seen! Sara is undeniably talented, but the true magic of Muse Art Co. is the passion and love Sara exudes. When it seemed inevitable that it was going to rain Sara was so calm and reassured me that everything would be beautiful either way. The rain miraculously held off and Sara's flowers added so much brightness to the overcast day. I simply cannot imagine our wedding day without Sara and Muse Art Co. I promise there is no better choice for your wedding or any other special occasion. You simply will not find anyone better - we cannot thank Sara enough!

That magic is what I hope to capture as your photographer. It’s my job to hold those moments in time so that they don’t have to fade. You’ll forever be able to revisit the moment, see the exact way they smiled, revisit that incredible sunset, relive the memory and turn back time.

I can not articulate how happy I am to have found Jess to capture our wedding. She was extremely professional throughout the process and yet somehow now I feel like we are best friends?! She made the planning process seamless and we were happy to have gotten to know her during our engagement shoot. Then at the wedding - she was ON! She kept our families in line AND ON TIME, which is not a small task. She even helped coordinate a surprise with my husband that left me speechless! Our wedding was all about the details and she absolutely captured that. AND THE PHOTOS! Aside from being a wonderful person to spend the day with, Jess is a true artist! The photos are absolutely gorgeous, and my husband and I feel SO LUCKY that we get to cherish them forever.

After watching the beautiful cinematic video that Oleg put together after my friend's wedding, we knew that wanted Oleg to video our big day. Oleg was extremely kind and attentive throughout our day and made sure to capture not only what we had asked, but to even film moments or arrangements that we never would have thought of on our own. When our dancing broke out during the reception, Oleg made sure to get right in the crowd to capture fun footage of all of our friends and family. He even surprised us the very next day with a sneak peek reel on Instagram! We would highly recommend Cinematic Horizon for videography!

Hi there! We're the team behind Duet Photography & Video. We're a collection of wedding photographers, filmmakers, designers, and editors. We each have our own story of how we've come to be a part of this incredibly field of wedding journalism.

With over a thousand weddings under our collective belts, we've photographed and filmed weddings of every shape and size imaginable. We can't wait to document your wedding as well!

From the moment we met and signed with Duet we were so happy!! Hanel was our main point of contact and kept us well in the loop up until the very last minute before the wedding. I had a lot of shots and things I wanted to make sure were captured and he graciously took note of all of them and made sure to get every single one!! Every single picture from the morning, to the church to the reception was perfect. They made sure to get all the family shots, solo shots and such beautiful candid shots. My grandmother unfortunately was unable to attend our wedding, which was devastating to me. The team made sure we were able to go back to get photos with her at my house and I am so grateful for that! I also had a very specific vision for the highlight video and they out did themselves with what they created. All the footage was amazing, they used a drone to capture outside footage which was incredible My husband and I are so happy we chose Duet and we are so happy we have these wonderful memories of our favorite day.

Based out of Brooklyn, NY, DJ KDOT LIM (Kevin Lim) is a 20+ year professional open format DJ that brings a unique blend of nightlife, wedding, & event experience to the wedding process and day-of. With a DJ style thats both engaging & appropriate at all times, he understands not only what to play, but how and when to play it most effectively. Whether it be mainstream or alternative music, there will be dancing (and singing) ensuring your celebration is unforgettable. In addition to providing DJ services & sound equipment, Kevin will provide MC services, making any announcements and introductions throughout your reception.

Kevin is AMAZING!!! He DJed our wedding celebration in May 2024, and WOW - he was 100000% our dream DJ. We had eloped a year earlier, so our "vision" for the night was to have an epic dance party with all of our friends - Kevin understood this immediately, and delivered truly beyond our wildest imagination! He kept the vibes moving during cocktail hour, and then seriously BROUGHT THE PARTY. The dancefloor was packed for over 3 hours straight. It felt like every single person there asked us where we had found our DJ, and they couldn't believe the mixes he was doing on the fly!! From the moment I first reached out to him in January right up until the end of the event, Kevin was consistently professional, upbeat, and efficient. He replied to all communication quickly, and was SO thoughtful in his preparation. He provided a shared document months ahead of time so that we could share music and scheduling info, and on the night of the event it was so evident that he had paid attention to every single detail ever mentioned in the document, over Zoom, or on our site visit. Every single must-play song came on at the perfect time, he managed to source very specific remixes that I had mentioned, and he kept the night running on schedule with such a chill, stress-free, and adaptable vibe. Kevin even introduced us to his colleague Richie for dance lights when we were debating our lighting options, which also ended up being absolutely perfect! I cannot stress enough how collaborative and understanding Kevin is, how smooth the process was, and most importantly - what a KILLER DJ he is. He truly wants to deliver the night of your dreams. My heart felt like it was going to explode in the best way multiple times that night, because of all the incredible, better-than-you-could-ever-have-imagined dancefloor moments. I wish we had an excuse to do it all over again, I would work with Kevin again in a heartbeat!!!

Wow! DJ Lou exceeded our expectations! When it came to the reception we didn't have to do a thing but the preparation came months before that. We had an initial planning meeting, he set us up with our own timeline (an app that he created!), we had a follow-up meeting and then a week-of meeting! We felt so ready when the day came but were still so surprised about how much DJ Lou did for us. He was checking to see if we were okay, pulling us away to make sure we were eating, working with our other vendors so seamlessly- our ceremony musicians, our officiant, our family band, and our photographer! It made the reception a hit among all our guests! We can't recommend him enough!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

I had collected more vases than I had originally planned on and Tracy ran with it. She made vignettes of large vases and bud vases, taking a fresh spin on things by using one flower type per vase. Her suggestions turned out even better than I imagined. Tracy’s professionalism and passion for her craft was evident throughout the process. The florals were one of the highlights of our wedding day, and we are so grateful to Tracy for her exceptional work.
