My husband and I got married 6/14/24 at Glen Sanders Mansion and Wyatt and his whole team were incredible from start to finish. From the moment we booked with them he was so responsive and helpful with the planning process. The day of everything was executed flawlessly from the entrance songs, to bridal party intros and most importantly the reception music! After a few classics for our older guests I told him to let loose and he did not disappoint! The dance floor was full all night. I got so many compliments on the party and vibe of the reception and all credit goes to Wyatt and co! 10/10 would recommend over and over again! Also the Photo Booth was a hit and it was so sweet we received a book with a copy of everyone’s Photo Booth pictures. I’ll never forget this night!

We were so supposed through the planning stage. They recommended excellent vendors. Our guests loved the food! We chose the wedding weekend option where you could stay Friday to Sunday and had friends and family members stay on the property as well.

We recently had our wedding at the 408 and could not be happier with our choice. From the staff to the atmosphere, everything was perfect and our guests had nothing but good things to say. We had about 55 people which made for a cozy and intimate wedding that never felt cramped or awkward in the space. The 408 is already so beautifully decorated which allowed us to bring in minimal items and utilize items already at the 408 such as candles, vases, and plants to decorate the tables and ceremony space. Maria (event manager) was fantastic throughout the planning process answering every question quickly and with detail, and the staff the day of was professional, incredibly friendly, and attentive. We have nothing but good things to say about the 408 and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone regardless of the event type

Wedding Planning Plus was an excellent choice for our wedding planning needs for our June 2025 wedding at the Equniox Resort in Manchester, VT. From the start, their communication style was direct, helpful, and calming, which was greatly appreciated as we planned our big day. The quality of their work and value they provided was outstanding - they were focused, supportive, and incredibly well-connected in the region, using their network of vendors to perfectly execute our wedding and beautifully and bringing our garden party tent reception vision to life. On the day of, Eliza ran the schedule effortlessly and her competence completely allowed my husband and I to be fully present. In particular, we appreciated the way that she approached us over the course of the wedding to check if we still wanted to do the next scheduled item, it gave us a sense of control over how we spent our time rather than feeling like we were manically running from task to task. So many of our friends and family have reported back that the wedding was the smoothest of the weddings they had attended this year, and its all thanks to WPP. We are so grateful for the incredible support Wedding Planning Plus provided and would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

Capturing love in every color of the rainbow, Kristen Renee Photography tells authentic wedding stories through a relaxed, documentary style. Based in Albany, New York and traveling wherever love leads, Kristen and her team focus on genuine moments rather than stiff poses. From intimate elopements to vibrant celebrations, every wedding is approached with curiosity, empathy, and a deep respect for each couple’s unique story. The goal is simple: photographs that feel real, timeless, and unmistakably you.

We worked with Kristen & Sheridan for our wedding earlier this year and are so lucky to have found them! TL;DR: From planning and day-of execution to the delivery of our wedding gallery, Kristen & Sheridan were incredible to work with. Not only were they the perfect presence for our wedding day, they captured it in such an authentic way with a stunning final product. We connected with Kristen & Sheridan the moment we met them which was important to us considering the amount of time you spend around your photographers. We did an engagement shoot prior and we not only received an incredible batch of photos, but we were able to establish a rapport that made the flow of our wedding day feel that much easier. When we had to tweak our photo schedule or change locations, they were the perfect people to help us pivot and keep things on track. And when it was time for the ceremony & reception, their discrete coverage led to incredible results that captured our day in such an incredible way. The wedding gallery they created was nothing short of amazing and we were able to see moments of friends & family we would have never seen day-of. And truly, everyone who interacted with them LOVED them. We had opted not to have a videographer and knew our photographs were going to be our primary memory of the day, and we have no notes! Kristen & Sheridan captured the perfect story of our wedding and we would recommend them to anyone!

It’s the one-on-one relationship that you have with your event host throughout your planning that will, and absolutely should, spill over into the atmosphere of your event. Getting to know you with the desire to personalize your entertainment, not simply customize, is a large part of where creativity comes from, and not just mine, but yours as well! I love to offer many suggestions and ideas for your event but also find it just as important to hear your "unique" and "awesome" ideas.

From start to finish, working with Upbeat Occasions was a breeze. DJ Chris was responsive to our requests and took time to really understand what we wanted, while also reading the room and keeping the energy right all night long. His transitions were smooth and the song order kept people engaged—the dance floor didn't empty once, and I was out there dancing to nearly every track. What impressed us most was how laid back he was while staying totally in tune with what the crowd needed, and our guests wouldn't stop raving about the music selection. Chris made our reception feel effortless and fun, and honestly, it's hard to imagine our day going any better. We'd absolutely recommend Upbeat Occasions to anyone looking for a DJ who actually cares about making your wedding special.

Thomas and his team were wonderful for our wedding in December! Right from the start he was super helpful to give us all the information and didn't sugar coat anything. I will say I was a little suspicious at first when he said "I can do any style you want" I know some photographers only stick to certain styles. And with our wedding being in Sturbridge MA I was expecting a travel fee. But he wanted us to make sure that he was a professional, he keeps things fair all across the board. Thomas is also super quick when it comes to messaging! If I had any questions he would respond rather quickly. He surpassed my expectations with how accommodating him and his team were when working with us, even changing our minds about packages and addon's only a couple weeks out. On the actually day of the wedding, Thomas and his team were truly our hype men! Even when I was getting ready with my bridesmaids he was in on all of our jokes and making us laugh. While I was getting ready, I heard that the groomsmen and my husband were having the best time getting all the group photos of them. I can not recommend this team enough!

We can’t say enough great things about our experience with Complete Weddings Events for our DJ and photo booth. Jade was our DJ and she was OUTSTANDING. She crushed the ceremony music transitions and setting up our audio needs for our officiant and for our speeches. It truly felt like we were partying with an old friend with the way she picked the perfect balance of classic songs, modern faves, and some of the club classics we used to party to in the early 00’s in college. She suggested a final dance song for just us after all our guests left and it was truly the best end to the evening and something we wouldn’t have thought of at all. We’re already trying to find a way to have her DJ another party for us! Katie was our Photo Booth operator and she did an AMAZING job with our guest book and in making sure guests kept taking pictures all night long.

Justin was lovely to work with from the start. He was booked for another wedding, but he paired us up with Rob, an associate DJ of his. Both Rob and Justin were so so fun to work with. Rob took the time to text or set up whatever zoom calls we felt we needed. For the actual day, Rob was amazing. We had dinner service, reception, and "after party". Robs killed it with his flow between songs, and was incredibly accommodating and flexible if we had any requests in the moment, and was able to dodge or handle any "questionable" song requests that came his way. We knew that he always put my husband and I's wishes first. We also had multiple people comment on how good the DJ was during the reception, and after the fact! He also went above and beyond to pull heroics the day of to get some of our DIY spot lighting set up that wasn't set up the night prior. Rob was incredible to work with, and just as fun to chat with. Will miss working with them, but absolutely will be following their journeys and would use them again in a heartbeat! So thankful for Justin and Rob!

She listened to exactly the style of photos we wanted and organized the shot lists with our family and friends on our wedding day with ease. She is excellently priced for the stunning galleries you receive, she is prompt, always available when we needed to check in and as a plus, the site she uses for her galleries is so user friendly and we have all of our professional photos in one place. We could go on and on about how special these photos are to us. Lindsey does not disappoint and we look forward to hopefully having other photo opportunities with her in the future!

  • Serves Waterford, NY

Based in Albany, NY, SoundFormula Entertainment is a DJ and photo booth service that specializes in weddings and special events. This company is owned and operated by DJ Mike Napoli, who offers over two decades of experience in the industry. This entertainer has performed at over 1,000 events, helping to create a high-energy experience for guests and couples alike.

We cannot thank DJ Mike Napoli enough, he was such a big part of our special day! Mike is very easy to talk to and work with. He brings such a friendly positive energy to the table. He kept great communication with us throughout our whole wedding planning process. The app he provided us with made everything so easy! It covered all the music we needed from start to end. We were able to customize and add specific notes to the time line as well. It’s truly a dream for any type A Bride. Besides providing the music, we also chose to use Mikes photobooth service. Our guest were able to take prints home and leave a print in our guest book. It was so nice to be able to look at all the photos and messages that were left by our guests. Within a few days after our wedding Mike also provided us the links to all the photobooth photos. We were unsure about lighting but with Mikes guidance he knew exactly what we needed based on our music choices. We are so grateful for his expertise because it turned out absolutely amazing. Not to mention he came early to set up and ran the whole thing on his own without missing a beat. Truly a 10/10 experience for us. We highly recommend Mike! P.S Our only word of advice…This didn’t affect us in the moment but we did get a lot of feedback from our guests that since we did not have mics our guest could not hear our vows clearly during our ceremony. This is something to consider discussing with Mike if you plan to have him.

When I had my wedding, I was very particular with the style I wanted. We were having Halloween wedding so I very much was specific style. Fawn made sure I was very happy with my style. She showed up on time, made sure all of bridesmaids looked good, and made sure I was happy. Fawn is extremely professional and amazing at what she does!

Absolutely stunning venue. The wedding went amazing with the help of Julie and Olivia along with the staff at Seven Ponds on our wedding day. The day was seamless and taking advantage of staying on site made the day feel stress free. It was great to have food and drink covered with the venue as this was one less vendor that could have caused stress on the big day! Planning forms were helpful to make sure all things were covered and things went according to plan. Only thing with the planning process is it seemed as if Seven Ponds tried to upsell everything and questioned some of our decisions although after talking to them, a compromise came about. Couldn’t have been happier to pick the venue for our special day and we will remember the beauty of the venue forever.

Normanside Country Club was the perfect venue for our wedding. Jaimie, the wedding coordinator, was amazing - even after hours, her response times were instant. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful and stunning, with great all-inclusive packages that provided excellent value. Dave, the owner, and Jaimie went above and beyond in every aspect to contribute to making our special day truly unforgettable.
