Franchesca’s Events & Floral Designs 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
Oakland, RI
  • Florist
  • Starts at $4,500

At Franchesca’s Events & Floral Design, we create refined, romantic wedding florals across Rhode Island and the Boston Metro area. Our passion is transforming spaces with lush garden-inspired blooms, thoughtful design, and seamless service from start to finish. We believe your flowers should do more than decorate a room — they should set the tone, elevate the atmosphere, and make your celebration feel unforgettable.

Franchesca’s Florals absolutely exceeded every expectation we had for our wedding day. From our first conversation to the final setup, she brought creativity, care, and an incredible attention to detail that made everything feel seamless. The arrangements at both our church and the Aldrich Mansion were nothing short of breathtaking. The florals elevated every space — elegant, timeless, and perfectly curated to complement the beauty and architecture of each venue. Walking into the Aldrich Mansion and seeing how the flowers framed the room, enhanced the tables, and tied everything together was unforgettable. The church arrangements were equally stunning — reverent, romantic, and full of life without overpowering the sacredness of the space. Beyond the beauty, Franchesca was organized, calm, and deeply invested in making our vision come to life. She understood exactly what we were hoping for and somehow made it even better than we imagined. So many of our guests commented on how gorgeous the flowers were — they truly set the tone for the entire celebration. If you’re looking for florals that are elegant, intentional, and executed with excellence, Franchesca’s Florals is the one. We are beyond grateful.

We hired ITS LIT RI for our Newport wedding to rent marquee letters and a photo booth, and they completely exceeded our expectations! From our very first inquiry with Alex and his team, their customer service was top-notch. Their communication was fast, and stress-free—which is amazing when planning a wedding. The marquee letters were such a beautiful focal point and added the perfect glow to our reception venue. Everyone loved taking photos with them. The photo booth was also a huge hit with all of our guests! The setup was perfect, the prints/digital photos turned out amazing, and the attendant made sure everyone had a blast. We loved that we were able to pick a design for our prints and personalize it! The book that I received at the end of the night was the perfect touch with everyone’s pictures!

Since then Keane’s has continued to build a reputation for exceptional food and service.

Keane’s was absolutely amazing! The food was beyond delicious. I’ve been to so many weddings where I can’t even remember the food, but I had been to two weddings catered by them prior to mine and their food stuck with me. I knew I had to have them for my own wedding, and they did not disappoint. One of the best parts was that they also provided an event coordinator. Alicia, my day of coordinator, was incredible! She was in touch with me months before the wedding, answering every single one of my questions, and on the day of she made everything run so smoothly. From the ceremony to the reception, she had everything perfectly organized, and I never had to stress. The catering staff was professional, attentive, and truly wonderful. They set up, cleaned up, and cleaned made sure everything was flawless. Our friends and family are still raving about how amazing the food was. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Their execution of our custom requests was exceptional (we wanted certain songs played at specific times during the wedding day).

Galilee Beach Club, and EVERY single person who works there, is a literal dream come true. When I was just shopping around, I compared every other venue to Galilee. None compared. The entire process was made so easy by Emily, their event coordinator. We would meet over zoom throughout the year, and she would give us tasks to complete before our next meeting. And as someone who is type-a, anxious, and therefore does not enjoy planning events, Emily made this process so easy and seamless. Thanks to her, I actually was able to truly enjoy my engagement. From the very beginning, to the very end, the customer service was above and beyond. It was so incredible, even my guests were racing about the servers, the bartenders, Emily, literally anyone working our wedding night.

Tired of not seeing yourselves represented in the wedding industry? Welcome to the RTP fam - we're a husband and wife duo shooting a combination of digital, film and Polaroid photos so that your gallery will deliver all the vibes and capture your sick, nontraditional love. And because of all the time we'll spend together getting to know you and crafting the perfect photo timeline for your day, you'll feel like we're just your two best friends there to capture the moments. No matter your size, race, gender, sexual orientation or religion, we're here to hype you up as you share all your wildest wedding ideas with us!

I was recommended Rhode Tripper Photography by my makeup artist, Sydney, because she knew I wanted a local photographer who shot on film and digital with an organic, natural style. I wanted real, intimate, beautifully captured moments that showcased Providence perfectly. I am so happy I took her advice! From the start, it was incredibly easy to work with them. During our initial call, Meaghan really got to know us to ensure they could capture exactly what we were looking for. Their pricing is more than fair for the expertise they bring, and they were even willing to work within our budget for some adjustments, which was incredible. We are so glad we did the engagement shoot. Like Meaghan and Evan recommended, it gave us time to get comfortable being photographed. While I talk a lot through my shyness, my (now) husband Sean is more traditionally quiet, neither of us are 'typical' models and we’d both prefer to be behind the camera. Spending time with them got us used to organic movements and posing. Those photos were so incredible that we displayed them at our wedding and have them framed in our home. I never felt more beautiful... until our wedding day! Leading up to the wedding, we had a final check-in to review the timeline. They made sure they were aware of family dynamics and made us feel 100% ready. If I was concerned about anything, I just thought, 'Meaghan and Evan will take care of it.' This was especially true when the weather looked bad. As an anxious person, I started to freak out, but Meaghan calmed me down, talked through contingency plans, and assured us everything would be beautiful. She was right! On the day, they were right on time for detail shots and getting-ready photos. After our first look and portraits at the Airbnb, Meaghan and Evan headed to City Hall to capture our ceremony, then walked with us in the rain to Gracie’s for our reception. They took care of everything. I even forgot they were there at points! They bring life to the party and blend in with guests, creating natural photos. They even joined our after-party at the Dusty Planet for mini-golf photos before heading home. In less than 24 hours, we had our sneak peeks, and they made me cry! I’ve never seen myself look happier than I do in those photos looking at Sean. Sean also mentioned he forgot they were there at times, which says a lot for someone who isn't comfortable in front of a camera. We could not recommend them more! Not only do we have go-to photographers now, but we’ve gained two new friends. They are amazing people who capture perfect moments. Please, please book them! Getting our Polaroids at the end of the night was one of the most special moments for us once we got home. I know Meaghan even does custom photo albums, and we might explore that down the line to create something special for us. She truly does it all, she even helped my mom button my dress on the wedding day. We love them so much!

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!

Hi, I’m Heaven — a licensed esthetician and professional makeup artist based in Rhode Island. I’ve spent the past few years perfecting the art of soft, timeless glam that enhances your natural beauty and photographs beautifully. Through Heaven’s Beauty Bar, we offer on-site bridal makeup and hairstyling services for brides and their parties, creating a calm, personalized beauty experience on your big day.

I had the best experience at Heaven’s Beauty Bar! From the moment I walked in, the vibe was warm, welcoming, and totally luxe. Heaven was not only incredibly talented but also so sweet and attentive—she really took the time to understand the look I was going for and executed it flawlessly. My makeup looked stunning—flawless skin, perfectly blended eyeshadow, and lashes that popped without feeling heavy. I got compliments all day long! Everything felt lightweight and lasted beautifully, even hours later. Highly recommend Heaven’s Beauty Bar if you’re looking for top-tier glam with a personal touch. I’ll definitely be back for my next event!

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!

Nicole is incredible. Not only is she super talented, but she is a professional! I was in Rhode Island for a friends wedding, and had booked Nicole for my own in September. I needed to schedule a trial with her, and last minute, she offered to come to my hotel room and do the trial right then and there! Within 24 hours, she confirmed my trial for my own wedding and was at my hotel room ready to rock. She was accommodating and listened to all my feedback. She even asked me if there was anything I would change. After giving her feedback, she went in and made the makeup and hair perfect. I felt Gorgeous, glamorous and just beautiful. She took notes of the specifics for my day and told me what products she recommended I buy - like the lip combo she used. The fact that she got me ready and did my trial for my friends wedding was just unbelievable. I cannot recommend Nicole enough. If you’re unsure about booking a makeup artist or hair stylist, I’m telling you- Nicole is it. She is fun, light hearted and personable and really put me at ease. I cant Wait till September when she does my makeup for MY wedding! She’s the best!

If you are looking for a florist in the Rhode Island area, look no further. Ayla did an absolutely amazing job with our wedding florals! Right from the beginning I loved her style and knew she had great instincts and vision. I told her what I was looking for generally, but she brought it to life in ways I never could have imagined. All of our florals were perfect for each space, and she was super helpful in thinking about how to use our budget for maximum impact. So many people commented on how beautiful the florals were and I am so so happy with how it all turned out. She captured our exact vibe we were going for - wild, not too fussy, summer, fun and was such a pleasure to work with. There are a lot of vendors out there and it can be really hard to wade through them all, but hiring Ayla and Shade Studio will truly be a no regrets decision!

Since a little girl I found myself always playing and expressing my love for art through makeup. During high school, I started taking clients in my little room. At first, it was just for fun, eventually I started venturing out and traveled to clients in the area. I was then able to get hired at my dream job, Sephora, which was one of the best experiences I've had. In 2022 I opened a studio in Johnston, Rhode Island and eventually joined a wedding team in Newport. I am super excited to showcase my talent in the bridal industry. Making someone feel and look beautiful on their special day has always my dream.

Absolutely fantastic job at doing wedding makeup for a diverse group of ladies! She was attentive to our desired looks and added her own magic. I have never felt as pretty as I did leaving her chair :) Wish all the photos were out to share but she did an amazing job. HIGHLY recommend.

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.
