Brittany is so talented and did such a stunning job with our wedding florals!! I had a very vague vision going into floral planning, and Brittany took the very few inspiration pics I provided and ran with it! She was so communicative and attentive to several ad hoc changes and requests. Brittany created bouquets/displays that were more beautiful than I could have ever imagined! She was intentional about helping select flowers that would match our theme and make sure our pictures looked magical, but would last in the summer heat. Our guests could not stop complementing them, even days after the wedding!!! We couldn’t be happier and are so excited to recommend Brittany to future brides!!!

Ryan DeVoll Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,250
  • Serves Oakland, RI

Hi, I'm Ryan! A wedding photographer and filmmaker who believes your story deserves to be felt, not just seen. My goal is to make your day effortless and fun, like spending time with a friend who just happens to have a camera. From the big moments to the quiet in-betweens, my goal is to capture your love in a way that feels natural, genuine, and true to you.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a pretty nontraditional wedding and came to Ryan DeVoll with a similarly nontraditional vision for capturing the day. We didn’t want a lot of portraits or a long shot list, but someone to document our day with our favorite people. Ryan completely understood what we were going for and delivered beyond anything we imagined. After several planning conversations leading up to the wedding, we were confident photography was something we didn’t need to worry about — and the results speak for themselves. Ryan captured the pure joy that we (and our guests) felt throughout the day. Ryan was an awesome presence all day: professional and organized with great vision for locations, but easygoing, never intrusive, and somehow always in the right place at the right time. Also, genuinely funny — we honestly wish we’d had more time together! The photos feel cinematic and alive. Looking through our gallery feels like reliving the day; we can hear the music, the words, the laughter. People who see them say, “Oh, you had exactly the wedding you wanted!” Ryan nailed it. If you’re looking for someone who can combine artistry with authenticity and tell your story in a way that feels truly you, we couldn’t recommend Ryan more.

My name is Nicole Bartlett and I am the owner of Nicole Bartlett Beauty, LLC (I know truly a unique business name). My love for all things beauty started at an early age. I honed in my skills and started working for MAC while in college. While studying for my degree I continued to work doing makeup and hair for weddings and events. It is truly my honor being able to make individuals feel their best. There is nothing more valuable to me then when my clients look in the mirror after I complete my services and they beam with confidence and beauty. I am so grateful to be trusted with your special day!

Awarded Best of Zola
I don’t even know where to begin…. from the time I started communication and reached out to Nicole, all the way to my wedding day, there was such an unbelievable ease. Nicole knew me better than I even knew myself. I’m not someone who wears a lot of make up or likes to be the center of attention, but Nicole was able to find a way to make me feel so comfortable and respected throughout the entire process. We made some changes from our trial to the actual wedding day and everything was done with professionalism and genuine care from Nicole. All of the members of my bridal party were taken care of and couldn’t believe how incredible their final looks came together. The team of artists that Nicole put together for my wedding day was unbelievable, and were people that she knew would make everything perfect. If I had to go back and do it over again, I would’ve booked Nicole sooner in the process because she exceeded all of my expectations and was a huge part of what made my wedding day so special. Nicole made me feel like the most beautiful bride!

When searching for a photographer, I was overwhelmed by the number of options available. Dominique didn’t make me feel pressured. She provided us with her wedding guide, which gave us insight into who she is. When we met remotely, I instantly knew she was the one. She was enthusiastic, listened attentively, and asked us questions about what is important to us leading up to the wedding and beyond. She was great to work with, and I knew what to expect. She drafted our timeline, offered recommendations, and helped us design it based on what was important to my husband and me.

For the biggest day of your life, you can't look anything less than brilliant. The morning of your wedding, we bring our team to sharpen up the gents. With our straight razor shaves, haircuts & styling, the groom and his party will be shining for the main event and photo shoots. We're great at tying bow ties and we won't forget the bourbon, cigars and music.

As the father of the bride, I wanted to give my future son-in-law something truly memorable before he married my daughter at Rosecliff—and booking Doorbell Barbers for the morning of the wedding at Little Gold Newport turned out to be one of the most meaningful experiences of the day. What Christian brought to the table was so much more than expert grooming (though his craftsmanship is absolutely master-level). It was a bonding experience—he cued up music from Greece, poured us his homemade wine, laid out cured meats he’d brought himself, and turned that morning into something special we’ll never forget. His attention to detail was impeccable, from the precision of the shaves to the way he personalized every moment. He’s not just talented—he’s a genuinely good guy with a calm, easy presence that put everyone at ease. I can’t thank him enough for the memories he helped create that morning.

The Golden Scroll Soloists have been wowing Northeast audiences with a variety of styles for 20 years, melding familiar songs you love into an elegant string quartet experience. We helped popularize the "crossover string quartet", much like the Vitamin String Quartet, during the early days of classical crossover. Our style, now made mainstream by Bridgerton, predated the Netflix hit show by 15 years. We're ready to play for your ceremony, your cocktail hour, or maybe even your reception. Choose from a string quartet, string trio, string duo, or violin soloist. Let's start planning the soundtrack to your happily ever after!

We had the Golden Scroll Soloists perform for our ceremony and cocktail hour at our wedding at OceanCliff this past April, and they were absolutely incredible! From the very beginning, Kevin was so responsive and made the entire process seamless. He provided curated playlists to make things easy, but also gave us the option to customize by selecting individual songs and listening to clips right on their website which we really appreciated. We chose the trio, and it was the perfect fit. We mixed modern songs with some timeless classics, and they brought it all to life beautifully. Our guests kept commenting on how unique and elegant the music was. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and would highly recommend Golden Scroll Soloists to anyone looking for live music for a wedding or special event. Truly a highlight of our day!

Joey G is like my cool uncle except he’s got sick DJ skills. He did our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Not only was he professional and organized, but he also brought an incredible energy to our wedding. For the ceremony and cocktail hour, we provided him with a specific music selection, and even though we never rehearsed together, he nailed it perfectly. During the reception, we gave him a playlist, and he struck the perfect balance between sticking to our choices and reading the crowd to keep everyone dancing. One highlight was when Joey G handed the microphone to people in the crowd, turning our reception into an impromptu karaoke party. It was a blast! He was not only fun and engaging but also very attentive to our needs. He asked how to pronounce each name correctly for the toasts, ensuring everything went smoothly. We requested that he not take song requests, and he respected our wishes completely. The sound quality was stellar, and his equipment setup was flawless. Joey G understood our need for clean music as we had many families with young children attending, yet he still kept the atmosphere lively and fun. The dance floor was packed with all 150 guests! Joey G was also a great help with announcements, coordinating toasts, and working with friends and family to announce the newlyweds and photo groups. His flexibility and attention to detail were impressive. Overall, I highly recommend Joey G to any couple looking for an awesome wedding DJ. He provided a questionnaire that made the whole planning process so easy, and his execution was simply fantastic. Joey G truly made our wedding day unforgettable!

As for the turn around time, we received a few of our save the date pictures the day after!! Super fast compared to other photographers. Also included some drone pictures, which were some of the best shots. I definitely recommend to anyone. If I wasn’t having a destination wedding, Tati would be my photographer.

Jackie at Petallion Floral was the absolute best choice we could have picked to do the flowers for our wedding. Flowers are very important to both me and my husband since both of our names contain flowers and as a special symbol throughout both our lives before we met and together. From the very beginning, I had a good feeling about Jackie because I could tell she really cared about our vision, even before we had confirmed her services, we had gone back and forth a bunch of times and she offered up some lovely ideas. She was very reachable, flexible and attentive and we had a super helpful meeting in person to go over all our ideas, she stayed longer just to make sure we were all on the same page and she knew what we wanted. She went the extra mile to make sure some specific ethnic flowers we asked for were on the arrangement menu! On our wedding day, she made everything go smoothly and the flowers looked BEAUTIFUL!! We got several compliments about how gorgeous they looked and our ceremony arch looked spectacular, as did my bridal bouquet and our reception table arrangements. We couldn't have asked for a better florist, aside from being a genuinely kind hearted woman and pleasant to work with, she worked with us to stay within our budget and did not gouge us like so many others in the business. Whoever else you are considering for your floral needs, do yourself a favor and pick Jackie. She is the hands down BEST!!!

Have it your way! That is my philosophy. There are so many different tastes and styles to accommodate, so I work extra hard to make your day exactly how you want it. What's the secret? I listen! I pay attention to each individual client and their own needs. I've been using this philosophy for years, and it has been working quite well! I am constantly learning more about my first love: Music! As a Master of Ceremonies, the philosophy is the same. I never say too much, it is not about me! It's about the client, and I never want to outshine or take any of their attention away.

DJ Graeme Ritchie was the perfect choice for our wedding entertainment. He was a true professional. He dressed appropriately, was on time and honored all our requests. Because our ceremony was at the same venue as our reception, he covered our music set for our ceremony as well and ensured everything went smoothly, even providing a microphone for our service. During the reception he doubled as our Master of Ceremonies keeping tabs on the timing of events as to when they should occur. Our guests were very pleased. We highly recommend DJ Graeme Ritchie for any of your events. You won't be disappointed!

I picked up a camera as a kid and never really put it down. Fast forward 10+ years, and I’ve been lucky enough to photograph weddings at some of the most beautiful venues across New England. My approach is laid-back, intentional, and focused on capturing the real moments—big emotions, quiet in-betweens, and everything that makes your day feel like you. The result? Honest, artistic imagery that reflects your story and stands the test of time. Badlands Photo Co, RI-based business that offers wedding photography services.

I wish i could give more than 5 stars. Josh was absolutely amazing to work with and our pictures are 10/10. He made us feel completely comfortable on a very intimate day of our lives and we will forever be thankful for him and his team. He was very professional and always quick with communication. Anytime I had questions or saw something I liked online, i’d send it to him and he would make sure we could recreate something similar on our wedding day. He also got us our previews and full album faster than any wedding photos i’ve ever heard. Truly could not recommend them enough!!!

Hello! My name is Diane. I have been designing wedding cakes as well as cakes for all occasions since the year 1998! That’s 27 years and counting! I started making cakes when I was 13 years old. I had my daughter in 1998 and decided I did not want to be away from her. So I started making cakes here and there for friends and family. Over the years I have turned my love of baking and decorating into a full time career. I’m one of those lucky people who loves what I do ! Mostly, I love when people come to me after their event and let me know how happy they were with their cake! I’d love to also be a part of YOUR special day!

Diane made my wedding cake back in 2009! It was beautiful... exactly what I wanted. More importantly, it was absolutely delicious! I've since ordered several cakes for anniversaries, birthdays, showers. Diane will always be my cake lady!

My name is Shelby Simone and I hope to get to know you as we come together for your family's big moments. I am a mom of 3 based in Rhode Island. I photograph weddings and family sessions throughout New England but travel nationally and internationally. I love what photography provides - memories. Photos help you remember the moment you said, "I do", those tiny newborn feet, and how much your child loved their first visit to the beach. I would be thrilled to help you and your growing family capture those moments that you will remember forever!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Shelby for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with our choice. From the very first intro call to the final details meeting, Shelby was incredibly kind and supportive. Her professionalism and warmth made the entire wedding planning process so much smoother. Shelby’s ability to understand our vision and bring it to life through her photography was truly remarkable and we felt completely at ease knowing she was there to capture every special moment of our big day. Her photos were very natural and candid, which we absolutely loved because they captured the pure joy and love we all felt on that day. Shelby went above and beyond to ensure our memories were beautifully preserved and returned our full wedding gallery with a very quick turnaround, allowing us to relive our special moments sooner than expected.

DJ Alex Brown has over a decade of experience providing dance floor filling DJ and MC services for weddings and events. He offers a full range of standard services for weddings such as uplighting, custom monogram, ceremony and cocktail music, and more.

My wife and I hired Alex as the DJ for our wedding in Newport this October. He was absolutely incredible. From the ceremony and recessional to the photo booth, greenery wall and dance floor, Alex and his team crushed it. The uplighting was great and the marquee letters really brought the room together and made a great background for photos. One of the things that I was most passionate about as a groom was finding someone who would set the tone for the night. Alex brought the energy from the moment he stepped on site that day. Whether he was behind the DJ booth working the 1s and 2s or on the mic, he was fantastic. Since the wedding, all of our friends have been asking about Alex, his team and where we found them. There's no lack of DJ's for a Newport wedding but if you're reading this review then congratulations because your search is over! DJ Alex Brown is simply the best there is.
