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).

Awarded Best of Zola
The bouquets were absolutely beautiful and fit my vision exactly! All of the flowers and decor complemented the venue perfectly and was exactly what I was looking for. Kate was great to work with, from the initial communication and planning to making several adjustments to our plan over time to sending a preview of the bouquet. We were also able to visit her studio in person and rent candles which was a huge help. Overall working with Kate was so easy and stress free and she really has a knack for bringing a vision to life! Thank you!

WildRoot Moments was such a joy to work with on our elopement day. From our initial conversations, Destiny’s communication was quick, excited, and very clear - putting us at ease throughout the entire process. Her work is truly beautiful, captivating, and timeless, as she documented our day perfectly and captured the emotions of the event flawlessly. She is such a kind soul and was so understanding and patient in during our time together— time shared with our two year old who didn’t always take to photo instructions very well. I absolutely love the work she produced, and could not recommend WildRoot Moments enough to any couple looking for a talented and professional wedding photographer!! We also received our gallery so quickly, which was amazing and shows how dedicated she is to her work!

Lindsay was so amazing to work with! We hired her to do the flowers for our very small wedding, and the flowers were pretty much our only decor. Everything turned out so stunning. I only showed her a couple of inspiration/general ideas, and mostly told her that we just wanted bright seasonal (August) flowers, and to go ahead and do whatever she thought was best. We didn't have a set color palette since we didn't have a wedding party, so she really could choose whatever she wanted. This was the best decision I could have made because everything was even more beautiful than I could have imagined! Trust me, if you're not a picky bride, ask Lindsay to surprise you and you won't be disappointed!

Awarded Best of Zola
We found RS Event Co. through a friend and are so glad we did! The Month-Of Coordination package offered us just what we wanted as we were looking for someone to handle the day of details to allow our family to enjoy the big day. And while Raquel did handle the smaller details, she also did so much more. From day one, she was professional, supportive and detail oriented, quickly becoming someone we could rely on and ask questions to. She made herself available for not only calls with vendors, but in-person meetings, ensuring our questions were heard and our vision was being brought to life. On the day of the wedding, Raquel struck the perfect balance of being supportive and discreet and after the event, I kept telling friends and family that I felt like everything went perfectly! I know that’s a testament to all the hard work Raquel put in to ensure my husband and I had the best day. She anticipated our needs before we had to ask and went above and beyond in areas that we didn’t even know we’d need until the big day (an example being driving guests from our reception to the parking lot in the venue’s golf cart). These feelings don’t just apply to myself and my husband as my parents have also expressed their gratitude for everything she did. We were all able to be present the entire day because of Raquel and that was truly a gift! For anyone considering a wedding coordinator, please reach out to Raquel! She will immediately jump in to help wherever she can while also being your personal cheerleader.

Forever a lover of nature, I draw inspiration from the natural world and am most at peace and at home among the plants and trees. I love spending time outdoors, hiking with my dog, and working in my garden growing food and flowers. I have a life long passion for art and design and have worked as an artist for much of my life.

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.

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)

JCakes is an award-winning custom cake bakery, located in North Branford, Connecticut, specializing in gourmet wedding cakes and cupcakes. JCakes turns scrumptious ingredients into stunning works of art in three steps: 1) Cake- JCakes begins with a freshly baked, moist cake 2) Filling- The cake is then filled with homemade, hand whipped fillings (nothing comes pre-made from a tub). 3) Frosting- Cakes are frosted with your choice of flavored French buttercreams or rich chocolate ganache, or expertly covered in rolled fondant

Such a pleasure to work with the team at JCakes. They came highly recommended by our venue, Bill Miller's Castle. And were able to provide a variety of cupcakes for our guest along with the modest wedding cake we worked with them to design. They also went above and beyond in picking up our Italian cookie order from a nearby bakery on their way to drop off our desserts for our wedding day. Everything was delicious and guests walked out of our wedding with armfuls of Tupperware we had provided to take home the leftover dessert. We will absolutely use them again!
