We started our journey with the Madison a little over a year ago in providing our daughter and son in law a dream wedding on the beach. On May 17, 2025 this dream became a reality. The staff at the Madison could not have been more friendly and accommodating throughout this process. From our meeting with Lisa, to working with Amanda and her staff, everything went without a hitch. A special shout out to the valet staff, they were phenomenal.

Modern Strings was a joy to work with for our wedding. Their communication was consistently professional, kind, and fast throughout the planning process, which we greatly appreciated during the stresses of wedding planning. On our big day, the weather did not cooperate and we had to quickly change plans, but Modern Strings immediately adapted and set up to perform. Despite the last minute changes, they were passionate, professional musicians who delivered a performance well worth the cost. The entire ensemble brought immense talent and kindness that uplifted our whole event. We cannot recommend Modern Strings highly enough - they brought passion and professionalism that absolutely made our wedding day special, even when things went wrong.

The granddaughter of two gardeners, I have always felt a connection to the earth through the soil. When someone brings flowers into a room, something changes...an energy, an excitement! I love being able to bring that kind of beauty into peoples lives. I'm a small-town girl who enjoys anything that involves working with my hands from cooking to knitting. I'm a total animal lover (partial to dogs), a die-hard Grey's Anatomy fan, and I take my martinis extra dirty. When I'm not flowering in our studio in Milford, Connecticut, I'm mommin' to three amazing little boys (our dog Pippa and cat, Galaxy).

Fountainhead Floral Design was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Their communication style was clear, concise, and extremely helpful throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was simply amazing - the bridesmaids bouquets they created for us last minute were absolutely beautiful and perfect, and the centerpieces they designed were breathtaking. I had reached out to them in a panic less than a week before the wedding because my box of DIY bouquets got delayed, and they were able to step in and make the most stunning bridesmaids bouquets with barely any notice. Fountainhead Floral Design truly went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was perfect, and we are so grateful for their incredible service and beautiful work.

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
This summer I had the pleasure of having Cate photograph my backyard micro wedding. She was great to work with and made sure to do meetings with us prior to the wedding to plan the photos we wanted and map out the timing of the day. This way it was an extremely smooth process for family photos prior and after the ceremony. Cate made the wedding photo experience so fun and the results were incredible! I couldn’t have asked for better photos. She got me a sneak peek within 24hrs and by 2-3 months our edited gallery was ready. Overall, our wedding moments wouldn’t be what they are without Cate’s amazing photos. I highly recommend her for your wedding.

Makeup has always been a passion of mine, ever since I was little you could find me doing my mom, little sister, and grandma's hair and makeup. I always wanted a career in the industry but never thought it was attainable.

Their communication was continuous and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process - from our initial consultation to the day-of application. The quality of their work was truly amazing, transforming my look in a jaw-dropping way. Aleksandra ensured my makeup lasted all night and perfectly matched the vision I had in mind. She also gave me great pointers on how to prepare my skin and hair leading up to the big day. Aleksandra was punctual, took the time to go through all of our options realistically, and chose colors that were simply perfect - colors I never would have considered on my own. I couldn't recommend Aleksandra Artistry more highly for any bride looking for a true beauty pro to make them feel and look their absolute best on their wedding day.

From the moment you step into the Castle to start your tour, you're surrounded by history - not only of the surrounding cities, but for the Miller family as well. The care and love that they have for this space is clearly evident and the character brings such charm and warmth. It truly was the perfect place for us. Lisa was our guiding light throughout the whole process. We felt welcomed when we were with her and she took such great care of us and the details of our day, which allowed everything to turn out exactly as we had imagined.

I instinctually fell in love with the creativity of floral design and it wasn’t long until Willow & Grey was born. WG creates unique, romantic, and whimsical floral designs for weddings and events in New England. My desire is to curate florals that reflect and celebrate the beauty and magic in life’s most cherished moments.

I wanted a florist who brought fresh ideas and a passion for their work. After speaking with several florists as well as Willow & Grey, I found that Renee was the perfect person for our wedding.

The venue had a few hiccups, but overall we had a lovely reception there. The outdoor space was the highlight - truly gorgeous for photos. Communication on coordination was a bit spotty at times, but the maître d', Sergio, was a god send and stepped in to ensure things flowed smoothly. The food was phenomenal, as well! So many of our guests shared it was the best wedding food they’d ever had. We did have both our bridal attendants provided by the venue disappear on us shortly after we arrived, which was inconvenient since we would have paid for our own attendants if we knew that would be the case. While parts of the indoor space is dated, it worked out beautifully with some creative decor. When weighing everything in, the Woodwinds was a spectacular venue!

I can’t even put into words how special my wedding was thanks to The Lake House (but I’m going to try lol). I found this location on Zola and when I contacted the owner, Paul, it was like speaking to an old friend even though we had never met before. He is so sincere and thoughtful and has the best tips and tricks for wedding planning. I never hired a wedding planner and I was a little overwhelmed in the beginning of my planning process but Paul was there every step of the way for me. He answered all my emails filled with dumb questions and he advised me in the best way. Carole, my wedding coordinator at the venue, was an absolute gem as well and made things so easy. My wedding was 11/16/24 (the last wedding of their season!) and I still have guests telling me how fantastic everything was. Especially the FOOD. I truly dream about the filet mignon and tiramisu we had about twice a week lol. I can’t say enough amazing things about this venue. I would have my next birthday party here just so I can see Paul and Carole again and eat more of the delicious food lol. The location is GORGEOUS and they truly made my wedding the best night of my entire life.

False lashes can also be customized. We offer strips & individuals, or a combo of both! And of course, no wedding day look is complete without the perfect hair. Whether you're looking for a bohemian, beach-y hairstyle for a summer wedding, a sleek chic updo, or anything in between, our team has the skill & experience to ensure you'll love the way you look!

Nadia's Beauty Spot was a pleasure to work with for my wedding day hair and makeup. The stylists were friendly, thorough, and responsive in all of our communications leading up to the big day, which I really appreciated while planning a hectic wedding schedule. On the wedding day, the team arrived early, completely prepared and organized with all of their professional equipment and products. They worked efficiently to have myself and all 9 bridesmaids looking our absolute best in time for the first look photos, while keeping the atmosphere fun and relaxing. The hair and makeup lasted perfectly all day and looked stunning in the photos. Overall I would highly recommend Nadia's Beauty Spot for your wedding beauty needs - their work is top quality and their team is organized, responsive, and a joy to work with.

Is bold, quirky, whimsical, and maybe even a bit wacky your vibe? SAME! My name is Izy, I'm lead designer at Rocky Floral, and I’m SO GLAD you're here! For six years, I've been growing and arranging experimental flowers for unique couples. Combining fresh & dried flowers is a specialty, and staying sustainable and inclusive is a non-negotiable. We're ALL about nontraditional flowers for modern couples here <3

Izy provided bouquets, boutonnières, and arch pieces for our August 2024 wedding and they were absolutely stunning! She put so much care and detail into my desired colors and arrangement and they came out even better than I imagined. They matched perfectly with our wedding party's outfits and we got so many compliments from our guests. I highly recommend Rocky Floral for any event!

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.

Isabelle is so incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and patient; a true artist with their flowers :') I emailed Isabelle to ask about DIY floral arrangements for our June 2025 wedding. We had such a fun time thinking up ways to engage my partner and I's family and friends, and Isabelle came up with the idea for a flower arranging party in their beautiful shop. The day before our wedding, we had our family try their hand at floral design. They had so many questions (ie, "Am I doing this right?" "What kind of flower is THIS?!"), and Isabelle greeted them all with understanding and care. AND there was handmade herbal tea and strong air conditioning on a 95-degree day. It was an experience I will never forget; thank you, Isabelle & the folks who make Fairy Meadow Flowers so special! :') Photo credit: Ken Yotsukura (& family/friends)
