OUR 80s and 90s GRANDMAS WERE ON THE DANCE FLOOR! NYCT DJ's made our wedding day feel effortless from start to finish. They nailed the ceremony and kept the energy high through the reception, playing everything from Laos and Vietnamese music to 90s throwbacks that had our guests dancing all night. Our grandmas were on the dance floor right alongside our cousins, nieces and nephews, which tells you how well they read the room. The team communicated clearly with us every step of the way and handled all the technical details so we could just enjoy our day. The dance floor never emptied, and our guests haven't stopped talking about how fun the music was. We love DJ Danny and DJ Rubin! They were amazing to work with.

Modern Strings was the perfect choice for the music at our wedding ceremony.

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
Our wedding was held at Saltwater Farm Vineyard in June 2024. Kate was such a pleasure to work with and really brought our floral vision to life! I appreciated her free excel planning tools and how responsive she was from our first inquiry. After our first phone call, I realized that she is incredibly easy-going and down to earth, in addition to being well-organized. These are qualities you want in your wedding vendors. I have always loved florals and she helped me craft a vision that stayed within our budget. Our theme was coastal vineyard - I wanted the vibe to be loose & romantic without veering too rustic. She found this balance perfectly! On our wedding day, she arrived early and took care of everything quietly without a hitch! I didn't have to worry about a thing. I can't recommend Fountainhead Floral enough!

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
Cate is simply the best, outside of just being a wonderful human, she is an extremely talented and experienced photographer. She was exactly what we needed as a wedding photographer, she captured every bit of emotion and happiness on our wedding day. She was our biggest champion day of, making the entire process stress free. She is very experienced in wedding photography and just does so much in the background to take care of every detail of the day. Her photographs are AMAZING, she somehow manages to be everywhere at once, and all her shots are just raw moments, nothing feels posed or staged and as a result you are left with beautiful photos that just showcase every emotion of the day. Honestly, I cannot recommend Cate enough, she is one of the best in the industry.

Weddings by Ms. Ellie was a true pleasure to work with for our ceremony. From the very beginning, Ellie demonstrated a very detailed, organized, and well-executed communication style that put us at ease. On the day of our wedding, Ellie was incredibly professional, loving and supportive. She came to speak with me privately before I walked down the aisle, which helped ease my nerves and allowed me to be fully present in the moment. Ellie's words during the ceremony were so beautiful, as she eloquently reminded us of the deep love and promise we share with each other.

WildRoot Moments 
Rating: 5.0 (32 reviews)
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Northford, CT

Timeless, editorial imagery with a warm, documentary approach. From the grand, luxurious details to the quiet, candid glances you share when no one’s watching, I’m there to preserve it all with intention. If you’re dreaming of wedding photos that feel both refined and deeply personal, I’d love to bring your vision to life.

If you are looking for THE wedding photographer, trust me, stop here, you found her. And if you are looking for a photo/video team that genuinely cares and will give you the most stunning wedding photos/videos, RUN to Wildroot Moments and The FlameKeepers. Together they are an incredible powerhouse couple duo. My husband and I got married on April 10th in Rhode Island, and I genuinely cannot stop talking about how amazing our experience was from beginning to end. We first booked Wildroot Moments for our engagement shoot, and that alone had us completely sold. Destiny is seriously the sweetest person ever while also being insanely talented and confident in what she does. My (now) husband and I were nervous going into our engagement session because we wore all black and, as a Black couple, finding photographers who truly know how to capture different skin tones without washing people out can be stressful. Destiny NAILED it. The photos were stunning, flattering, elegant, and still felt like us. We left that shoot obsessed with her work. But then came the wedding day… Nothing could have prepared us for how incredible this team was in action. They were everywhere and nowhere at the same time. Aside from taking portraits/family photos, we barely noticed them throughout the day… yet they captured EVERYTHING. Later, while looking through guest videos and behind-the-scenes clips, we kept spotting them in the background running around like ninjas making sure not a single moment was missed. And honestly? They did not miss ONE thing. Destiny and Mac were beyond attentive the entire day. Destiny deserves her flowers because she truly helped run the day. She came prepared, organized, a hype girl, and it honestly felt like working with someone who cared about our wedding as much as we did. Speaking of previews… THE PREVIEWS??? We genuinely fell to the floor. The quality is INSANE. We cannot stop staring at our photos, and neither can anyone else. Every single person we show loses their minds over how cinematic, timeless, and beautiful everything looks. What made the experience even more special though was how personal everything felt. Throughout the whole planning process, Destiny was phenomenal with communication. She gave us resources and truly understood our vision from the start. She was the ultimate hype girl. Mac was also so easygoing and kind during planning calls and on the wedding day itself. In our guest bts videos, you can literally see Mac smilling so genuinly while Destiny focused and hyped up. At no point did we feel like “just another client.” We genuinely felt cared for. And one thing that seriously deserves recognition: our wedding had a very wide range of skin tones. Nobody looked gray, washed out, overexposed, or poorly edited. If you know, you KNOW how hard it can be to find photographers who truly know how to work with diverse skin tones consistently and beautifully. Absolutely mastered it. Booking Wildroot Moments and The FlameKeepers was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Truly individually talented, but together an absolute dream team. We also loved how human and warm they both were through the entire process. We never felt awkward in front of the camera, and by the wedding day it honestly almost felt like having friends (with communicating headphones lol) there documenting one of the biggest days of our lives with so much care. Truly unforgettable overall.

Lauri was fantastic to work with and we are so grateful we found her. She was a caring a nurturing presence throughout, was very receptive to our requested changes as we planned the ceremony script, and was clearly motivated by doing what would be right for us. She met with me and my fiance about four times during our wedding planning process to get to know us and modify our ceremony plan/script to what spoke most to us most as a couple. She was knowledgable about a variety of cultural traditions and helped us incorporate the Irish Hand Fasting Blessing into our ceremony, providing us with an everlasting, unique memory and memento (the handfasting chord) of our promises to each other. We received several compliments from our wedding guests about Lauri's ease and professionalism while she officiated our wedding. We highly recommend her! - Tess, May 2025 Bride, Bill Miller's Castle

We had the most magical experience at Bill Millers Castle. They made the day everything we could have dreamed and more. Every detail was perfect, the food was phenomenal, and they scheduled everything to run smoothly without making us feel like we were stuck to a schedule. We were able to relax and enjoy the day without worry that something was not done or would not be ready. We had every one of our guests tell us it was the best wedding they have ever been too. (and as we are not a young couple most of them have been to a lot of wedding's). Not only was the experience of the day the most amazing, the planning and communication leading up to the day was phenomenal. Victoria was very easy to reach, answered all of our questions, and helped guide us through the process always having tips for us to make sure we got what we wanted. Thank you to Bill Millers Castle for the most amazing day.

As a veteran DJ with 20+ years of experience and 250+ weddings, I create sophisticated, custom music programs based on your tastes. I handle all audio logistics—from timeline planning to day-of run-of-show. Pricing: Evening Celebration ($1,900): Cocktail, Dinner, and Dancing with 2 sound stations and polished MC services. Full Day Experience ($2,500): 3 sound stations plus my battery-powered ceremony system for vows on beaches or gardens—no noisy generators. My resume includes tours in the U.S./Europe/Japan, and playing alongside artists like Drake, Calvin Harris, and LCD Soundsystem. I bring elite professionalism to every event.

As someone with a background in the events and music industry, my standards for production are incredibly high. Edwin (DJ Konsept) completely exceeded them for my wife Emily and my wedding in Montauk, NY. From our first conversation, Edwin was the consummate professional. His communication is exceptional- he is highly responsive, asked detailed questions to understand our specific vision, took careful notes, and was completely open to direction. We gave him a complex, multi-stage run-of-show, and he executed every phase flawlessly. He managed our outdoor ceremony, providing perfectly balanced mics and audio so everyone could hear our vows. He then seamlessly transitioned to setting the mood for our outdoor cocktail hour, and ultimately closed the night out by crushing a high-energy indoor afterparty. He arrived over-prepared with backup equipment and intuitively grasped the distinct musical vibe needed for each portion of the day. Technically, Edwin is a master. His beat-matching, transitions, and ability to read a room's energy are unmatched. He completely avoided the typical "cheesy" wedding tracks, weaving together exactly the right mix to keep our guests engaged. Furthermore, his pricing is incredibly fair and transparent, offering immense value for the high-end talent and peace of mind he brings to the table. If you want an incredibly talented, stress-free professional who operates with style and a cool, collected energy, you need to hire Edwin. He made our wedding day absolutely magical!

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.

We talked to several florists before finding Willow & Grey, and I knew within the first conversation that Renee was the one for us. Her communication was friendly and efficient—she responded quickly to all our questions and worked with us on every detail. What really stood out was how she added her own creative touches that we didn't even ask for, making our arrangements feel personal and special. The flowers were absolutely stunning and held up so well that I was able to preserve my bouquet the following week, which says a lot about the quality she sources. Renee went above and beyond from start to finish, and we couldn't have asked for a better florist for our wedding day. I'd recommend Willow & Grey to anyone looking for someone who truly cares about making your flowers perfect. (The last photo was my reaction from our dining room reveal. I was blown away)

I wanted to say thank you to Alex and Ashley. They did the hair and makeup for my daughter’s wedding last weekend for 6 of us. We all looked amazing! Most of us had pictures for how we wanted our hair and we got exactly what we wanted. My biggest concern was that Lacey and my hair usually doesn’t hold a curl and we planned on a lot of dancing. Our hair looked perfect at the end of the night. When it comes to makeup, we have the Irish red blotchy skin when happy or sad. Ashley used something to hide that. Even though we were very emotional, none of the pictures showed red blotches. Ashley also was an amazing listener when we went for the trial. Lacey kept saying glitter and sparkle (which scared me) but Ashley gave her beautiful sparkle and even ordered a special body glitter. Thank you both!

Lindsay is a magician! She delivered the most stunning, colorful, vibrant bouquets and boutonnières to our venue the morning of our wedding. She did such a fantastic job nailing our exact vision! We did all our decor florals and Linsday was so helpful in collaborating with us to make sure everything matched beautifully! The stunning colors really made our special day pop. I can’t recommend Wild Grown enough thank you Lindsay!

Hi, I’m Rafael, the owner and creative behind JR Media Solutions. I believe wedding days should feel calm, joyful, and fully lived not rushed or staged. While I’m new to Zola, I’ve spent years photographing and filming weddings across Connecticut and beyond, earning over 100 five-star reviews by being dependable, organized, and genuinely invested in my couples. My approach is simple: show up prepared, stay present, and document your day honestly so you can relive it for years to come.

JR Media Solutions was the perfect choice for our wedding. Rafael captured every special moment from getting ready to dancing the night away and everything in between. Our sneak peek and wedding photos came earlier than expected and are so beautiful. We can't stop looking through them. Taking photos with each table on their way to the buffet was a brilliant idea and allowed us to get quality photos with everyone vs. photos of them sitting at their tables. Rafael was very professional, reasonably priced, a pleasure to work with, and did an excellent job behind the camera. We highly recommend him!

Hi! My name is Marisa Russo, the owner of ME Salon and Spa. I have been a stylist since 2014 and I opened this salon at 25 years old in 2021. I have been a bridal beauty expert my entire career. The places I have worked for have had many flaws, so I took my ideas and knowledge and put my heart into this bridal business to give Bride's and Bridal parties the best experience from start to finish.

I can’t say enough kind things about the ladies at ME Salon and Spa. They worked with me through each step of the planning process to make it as easy as possible. They showed up very early to ensure that everyone was done ahead of schedule and did touch ups before they left. Lauren made my hair absolutely perfect and Victoria did such an amazing job with my makeup. They listened to me and all of my girls to make our looks exactly what we wanted and it lasted all night long. Thank you ME Salon and Spa for doing such an amazing job!

Can not express how much I love the photos from my wedding at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in NYC! Every single image captured the magic, beauty, and emotion of the day in a way that took my breath away. From the moment we booked her, our photographer was an absolute dream to work with so kind, incredibly flexible, and beyond professional. She took the time to understand the importance and sacredness of the venue, navigating everything with such respect and grace. With the hustle and bustle of New York City and a tight timeline, she handled everything seamlessly. She arrived early, stayed on schedule, and somehow made us feel totally at ease the entire time. She gently guided us through poses without ever making anything feel staged or unnatural, and she captured the in-between moments so beautifully. Her ability to adapt to last-minute changes and still deliver the most breathtaking images is truly a gift. She was patient, warm, and genuinely excited for us, which meant the world. I’ll treasure these photos forever. If you’re looking for someone talented, thoughtful, and reliable, I cannot recommend her enough!
