From the moment my (now) husband and I met Raquel, we knew she was the right person to help us make our dream wedding happen. We selected her "partial planning" package and I cannot begin to explain how grateful we are that we did! She is extremely responsive (near instant text replies!! I could never!), open minded and willing to brainstorm, but also an important (yet patient) force in guiding important decision making and keep everyone on task / deadline. Best of all? Raquel is such a wonderful human being, that over the course of the year we became genuine friends. She CARES, and I think that's one of the most incredible things about her (aside from the very obvious talent she has for planning and coordinating weddings).

Tree Films Creative

  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Southport, CT

Here at Tree Films, we make your story a priority. We strive to get to know our couples and how they came to be, down to the silly coincidences and weird first dates. We like to think that our mission goes beyond just documenting your wedding day -- the goal is to create an unforgettable experience! We are invested in making each video as genuine as possible, as if your story was being told by a best friend who witnessed all the important stuff. Tell us who you are as a couple and let us put together a video that tells the story from day one to I do!

When we were in the process of looking for photo/video vendors for our wedding, we knew we wanted a combined service, but we were having a hard time finding the right fit. Someone I was looking into did not have our date available, but they recommended Tree Films Creative. When I say this was the best thing that could've happened to us, I MEAN IT. Tree Films has been nothing short of amazing. I was amazed that they were even available for our date. From the very beginning, Ashley was so personable, she listened to what we wanted, she was knowledgeable, and so professional. She was our main point of contact and her and I instantly became what felt like good friends (even though I only met her via zoom calls). I asked her for help with a few things throughout the process and she never batted an eye and helped me with it all! She was very responsive; I was never waiting for a response or wondering what was going on. She always kept me in the loop. Once our big day finally arrived, Ashley and her team were at the venue before I arrived. She greeted me and I felt like I already knew her. The entire Tree Films Creative team made me, my husband, and entire bridal party comfortable and I remember having a sense of ease. I could not recommend this team enough. They went above and beyond for everything on my wedding day and beyond. At this moment, I have received photo previews, which was way more than I thought, (happily) and I cannot wait for more! I have seen the teaser film and am just blown away. I am patiently waiting to see the rest of the photos and videos and I know for a fact that they are going to be incredible. I am so happy they were the ones who captured our day for us. I can go on and on about Tree Films; they were a literal DREAM TEAM. Without a doubt, I would highly recommend!

First of all - the end product was just beautiful. Everything from the bridal bouquet to the ceremony flowers to the table styling was exquisite and super unique. Shannon did a great job incorporating my favorite color (yellow) and a whimsical, organic wildness into the design exactly as I had hoped. From our first meeting to the written proposal, Shannon interpreted my thoughts and ideas exactly. I was so impressed that she took my ramblings and half ideas and pulled them together into what I was seeing in my head. Shannon’s GORGEOUS color palette informed the entire wedding design and gave me a jumping off point for invitations, bridesmaid dresses, other decor, etc. Unfortunately, the process of working with Shannon was a bit challenging. She struggled with nailing down details: incorrect number of tables, inconsistent accounting of candles/bud vases, etc. It took a number of incorrect proposal drafts until we got it right - just weeks before the wedding. We were honestly quite disappointed by Shannon’s flexibility and communication. She self-describes as being highly collaborative, but that was not our experience. First, as beer nerds, having hops in the design was super important to us, and while she flagged early on it could be an issue to source real ones, we discussed using fake. While we all agreed that she shouldn’t use fake hops if they looked bad, we were sad to see on the day of that they didn’t make it into the design. It would have been nice to have heard a heads up from her that she didn’t plan to use them - even if it was just a brief mention on the day-of. Second, when our cake plans fell through at the last minute, we asked Shannon if she could possibly supply a few flowers for our small 6” cutting cake. She told us she would try, but later we heard from the bakery that she had given them a flat no. She never communicated her decision to us. Thankfully, the bakery pulled something together for us (shout out to Zest Pastry!). Third, the Monday before the wedding, Shannon sent an alarming email with the subject line “Head Advisory, Oh No!”, asking us what our plan was. Getting any email titled “Oh No” isn’t fun to receive less than a week before your wedding. Further, as a trusted wedding vendor, we would hope that she would have plans for weather or unexpected events rather than looking to us during a very stressful period. Lastly, (and most disappointingly) despite having a run of day schedule, Shannon was nowhere to be found when it was time to put on boutonnieres and corsages. Our photographers and party thankfully jumped in to help to avoid major delays to portraits (shout out to Katie Slater!). Fundamentally, the product Shannon provided was beyond compare - everything was beautiful. That said, the communication, coordination, and organization were lacking from our experience.

I would definitely recommend ordering more than you think you need-they were such a hit and went much faster than we anticipated! We were blown away with how delicious everything was, and received so many compliments from our guests! We loved that all of her cake flavor pairings felt special and elevated, I had cake set aside for us to take home and ate two slices for breakfast the next day-SO GOOD! Her designs are absolutely stunning. I gave her some rough guidelines/inspiration and she ran with it and created the most gorgeous cake-better than any inspiration photo! Just amazing!

Everyone needs an events coordinator whose responsibility is to make sure you--and everyone at the center of the celebration--enjoy the event. Merry by Mia will be in your corner and take away all logistical stress.

After booking our wedding at Audrey's Farmhouse, finding a wedding planner was the next decision to make. As an event planner myself, I knew how important it was to find someone I could trust with our wedding. After our first call with Mia, we knew she was the one. She was extremely kind and someone who genuinely understood the venue and the details that mattered most to us. The planning process and tools that she provided were exceptional - clear, organized, and thoughtfully designed to keep everything on track. It was clear she had worked with Audrey's many times and knew exactly what needed to happen in order to have the perfect wedding day. We especially appreciated all of the tips that Mia provided on the Merry by Mia Instagram account. She truly provided the information we needed, when we needed it. Once we were paired with Lindsey the planning felt effortless. She was calm, cool and collected every step of the way. On the day of our wedding, Lindsey truly stepped up. She managed every little hiccup while staying professional and taking care of things so we didn't have to stress about them. Her ability to adapt quickly and find solutions without sacrificing quality or style was a game changer. She gave us total peace of mind which is exactly what we needed. We can confidently say having a wedding planner is an absolute must (even if you do it for a living!) and the Merry by Mia team is truly the best. We’re endlessly grateful and would recommend them a thousand times over to anyone (especially Audrey's couples!) looking for someone who truly gets it. With all of our appreciation, Jessica & Ryan

I'm a licensed esthetician and makeup artist. My background is in TV and working for several beauty companies across the country. We do a lot of maternity/family session hair & makeup during the week and weddings on weekends. However, I'm always down for a weekday wedding having eloped myself. Our beauty team specializes in natural makeup applications and romantic hair styling. We travel to you for your special day or event.

Working with Kim and the team at Eye for Beauty was a dream! As many others have said, I don't wear make-up or style my hair normally, so I was nervous about having to "wear a face" on my wedding day. But my nerves quickly subsided after my hair and make-up trial. DEFINITELY DO THE TRIAL! My concerns were heard and, even though I was unsure about wearing lashes, I barely could tell they were on after a few minutes. Day-of, they were very familiar with the venue (Bill Miller's Castle), and so everything went smoothly (and ahead of schedule!). They were even kind enough to have a stylist/artist go to a family member's hotel room too! Highly recommend choosing Eye for Beauty as your hair/make-up team, especially if you are not typically one to wear make-up!

Lauren was extremely professional, kind, and helped us out setting up chairs even when that was not part of her job. She was willing to help and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Our wedding photos came out beautifully and I’m so glad we chose her for our special day! Not to mention, her pricing is unbeatable.

Avec L’Amour

  • Videographer

  • Starts at $2,400
  • Serves Southport, CT

We are painters when it comes to film. We enjoy creating love stories that poke at the heart of emotion. There’s an art to visually piecing a love story together. We have a strong eye for detail, and focus on really diving into a couples love and expressing their emotion for one another through our lens.

Avec L'Amour captured our wedding in June of 2023. We went with Avec L'Amour because we really liked the style and felt the prices were extremely reasonable compared to some of the other videographers out there. We went with the package that included the highlight film and the feature-length film. The audio on the feature-length film is a little tough to hear because of all the background noise, but we were outdoors and in front of a lake, so it’s understandable. While planning for our wedding, we worked directly with John. He had great energy and seemed very prepared every time we interacted with him. However, we never met John in-person because the day before our wedding, he reached out saying he could no longer make it and would be sending a replacement instead. This was understandably very stressful, but fortunately the replacement he sent was awesome. We would have liked to know this update earlier if possible, however we know that’s not always possible, and this was our only complaint in working with him. When John sent us the footage of our wedding, we were so happy with it with the exception of one place where the audio didn’t match up, one place where suddenly the video went purple, and the fact that one of our best man’s speeches was completely left out of the highlight reel; we brought these concerns to John, and he fixed them with no hesitation in a timely manner. Though we can’t review John’s videography or wedding day presence directly, we did have a good experience with his company and would recommend it!
