Awarded Best of Zola
As a wedding photographer, I work with a wide range of planners, but Tanya from Bookmarked Weddings truly stands out. Our most recent wedding together was a 2025 New Year’s Eve wedding, and it was clear from the start that this wasn’t just another event—it was a fully immersive experience, thanks in large part to Tanya’s vision and execution. The day was filled with intricate details: a balldrop at midnight filled with bubbles, an elegant champagne tower, and a timeline packed with special moments and intentional design. Tanya handled it all with a calm, confident presence and exceptional attention to detail. She built a full-day timeline that was both comprehensive AND realistic—which meant everything ran smoothly, and I was able to capture the day naturally without unnecessary stress or delays. Tanya’s coordination behind the scenes allowed the couple to stay present and enjoy every moment while ensuring that vendors like myself had exactly what we needed to do our jobs well. Her thoughtful approach and clear communication made a huge difference throughout the day. The energy of a New Year’s Eve wedding is already electric, but Tanya elevated it with a sense of elegance, organization, and creativity that made the whole celebration feel effortless and magical. If you're looking for a planner who can manage complex, high-energy events with grace, precision, and style, Tanya from Bookmarked Weddings is it. Every time I know we are going to work together, I fist pump the air in celebration because it will be FLAWLESS! — Cait Fletcher Cait Fletcher Photography

Hi Gorgeous! First and foremost, congratulations on your engagement and thank you for considering us for your wedding day! Glam by Shadelin is a bridal hair and makeup service based out of Connecticut, USA, servicing the New England area and beyond. (ps. we LOVE destination weddings!)

Working with GLAM by Shadelin as a bridesmaid was such a great experience from start to finish. Shadelin and Elif are incredibly down to earth and made us feel comfortable and answered all of our questions without any hassle. They also were so easy to work with and really accommodating. They were able to do an early start time of 5am to get us ready by 8am. We were so happy they were available to take us on since it was a last minute request by wedding standard time. Their skill really showed through; my hair and makeup stayed flawless throughout the entire day, which is no small feat for a desi-wedding. I actually preferred my glam done by Shadelin and Elif compared to what I'd done for my own wedding a couple years ago. If you're looking for beauty professionals who genuinely know their craft and treat you like you matter, I'd absolutely recommend GLAM by Shadelin.

Imagine this: it's your wedding day. You're somehow feeling both insanely excited and at peace. You made your day into a little universe that represents you and your partner. The details are super personal, the atmosphere feels like home, and you can't wait to see it full of your favorite people. You’re thinking about being a total goofball with your love, the enthusiastic conversations, your friends losing their minds during the first kiss. You know that song that you and your partner sing in the car? When it comes on, you'll grab their hand and run to the dance floor. And in 50 years, you'll see those exactly moments as they were

I could not have asked for a better person to capture my wedding! On our wedding day, it poured rain and I was absolutely devastated that the outdoor wedding I had been dreaming of was not happening. As I was sitting there faced with that reality, about to ruin my makeup with tears, Andrea swooped in like a superhero and genuinely made me feel like the rain was a good thing. She was the only voice of reason that made me feel like everything was still perfect. She ran around in the rain with us all day capturing the most gorgeous photos and I didn’t feel like I missed out at all. She was prepared with clear umbrellas and we actually had fun! She is also just so talented, the pictures and the saturation are just absolutely gorgeous, and not only that but she also has an absolute talent for capturing joy and movement. All my vendors have chosen to use her photos from my wedding on their websites, seriously just hire her!!!

Wedding and event photographer and djs in CT. Lyrical Lens Events performs weddings, mitzvahs, quinceañeras, and more. We connect with clients to create personalized, unforgettable moments through photography, dj, lighting and photobooth services.

We hired Lyrical Lens for our wedding in Sept 2020. We found it very easy because they offered DJ and photography, and also a Photo Booth. The process of booking was super easy, and prior to the wedding they gave me access to a site to input the songs I wanted for each part of the ceremony and reception. Super easy. I also loved that we got two photographers. At the wedding itself, the music was on point, keeping the dance floor full all night long. Connie and the other photographer really snapped all of the action throughout the night. We got so many comments from our friends about how great our photographers were and that they were “everywhere,” and even a comment about how Connie had stood on chairs to try to get the perfect shot. We have great shots of everyone dancing having a great time, group shots, family shots, etc. I highly recommend Lyrical Lens for all of your wedding needs.

Hi! My name is Matt and I am the owner and head DJ of Style Points DJs. I began DJing in 2016 with my friend Jerry after discovering a mutual love for electronic dance music from the likes of Zedd, Martin Garrix, and Hardwell. I've found an overwhelming passion in DJing and event coordinating, so much so that I've worked tirelessly to do it full-time since 2021. I believe that the DJ is the cornerstone of wedding vendors and I do everything in my power to make sure that I can make the vision of your wedding into a reality.

Awarded Best of Zola
DJ Style Points was incredible to work with and played a huge role in making our wedding night a massive success. Our guest list spanned multiple generations, so we really needed someone who knew how to read the room and keep everyone engaged. Matt understood this perfectly—he had the dance floor packed all night and blended the music seamlessly. Any concerns we had regarding song lengths or flow, he was already ahead of it. He uses a custom planning form that was incredibly thorough, which made it so easy for us to help structure our timeline and music preferences. It also didn't go unnoticed by our other vendors; they were all very complimentary of how well he managed the energy throughout the night. If you want a DJ who is organized, professional, and a true master at keeping the party going, look no further!

Everyone kept telling me how wonderful Bianca and Dan were and how beautiful the bar trailer was. Not only was the trailer gorgeous at the venue, she went as far as to have custom napkins and drink stirrers made for us. It was such a small, sweet surprise and as the bride- there weren’t many surprises for me as I was involved in all the planning so that little touch meant so much.

Ariana Strings was amazing to work with from the very beginning. From our first inquiry to our Zoom calls to pick the right package, Ariana made everything so easy and organized. She sent reminders, questionnaires, and covered every detail to make sure the music was absolutely perfect for our day. Every time we hopped on a Zoom, I left feeling confident we had made the right choice. We were married on 9.13.25, and having Ariana and her team there truly made the day feel magical. The addition of their production manager was such a bonus — everything was timed seamlessly, and it gave us complete peace of mind. Our guests are still raving about the music and how it added the most special touch to the day. We couldn’t be more grateful to Ariana and her team for helping make our wedding unforgettable.
