My experience with PG Beauty bar was amazing from start to finish. Pam was excellent with communication right from our first email, making the whole process seamless. On my wedding day, Pam and Brenna drove to an Air BnB I was staying at to get ready even though it was in the middle of nowhere. They were both on time and even finished early! Pam did my makeup and it was the perfect subtle glam look. It lasted AL NIGHT even through hours of dancing and sweating. Brenna styled my hair exactly how I had envisioned, listening to my requests for some changes to the style and giving me the most elegant look. The quality of their work was flawless and they are both so nice and such a pleasure to work with. I couldn't recommend this talented team enough for your wedding day or any special event.

Tree Films Creative // Wedding Photos and Films 
Rating: 5.0 (24 reviews)
Bristol, CT
  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $5,000

We're Ashley and James, nature—inspired storytellers and creative partners who are here to capture your most precious moments. As a husband-and-wife team, we understand the importance of connection. We take the time to get to know you so that your wedding film reflects your unique journey together. We’re drawn to the beauty of those candid moments—the joyful smiles, heartfelt tears, and loving embraces—and we transform them into cinematic treasures that you and your loved ones will cherish for generations.

Had the BEST experience with Tree Films Creative! From the initial inquiry to our wedding day, everything has been so easy and smooth with Ashley and James. They instantly made us feel so comfortable, in general, and in front of the camera. Communications over email and/or text were clear and timely, and it was apparent how organized and on top of their agenda they were. What I especially appreciated was the timeline and layout of the entire wedding day, from start to finish, all the photos Ashley planned to take; with who, where, etc. It was easy to follow and we could customize/add any specific group photos/photo poses we wanted to take. The sneak peek preview of some of the photos was such an unexpected and impressively quick turnaround - we got them while we were on our honeymoon! So that was another exciting bit of the honeymoon we weren't expecting but got to enjoy and appreciate together. I am so looking forward to the rest of the photos and video and will definitely be working with these guys again for our first born baby photos!!

Awarded Best of Zola
As an event planner I was recently hired to manage a wedding at the Bristol Event Center and had an A experience throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself is beautiful—spacious and super clean—and the ballroom worked perfectly for 180 people that wanted dinner as well as a giant dance floor. In the weeks and months leading up to the wedding Sarah (the wedding specialist onsite) was fantastic to work with. She was quick to answer questions, very detail-oriented, and completely in sync with me on the actual wedding day, which made everything run smoothly and on time. Load-in and load-out for vendors was also very easy. The banquet staff was efficient and pleasant and there were plenty of them onsite that evening, so service moved quickly. The food displays were visually appealing, with the raw bar being a real highlight, and having such a large pre-function space and patio gave guests plenty of options to chat and relax when they wanted to step outside of the main ballroom. We had one guest that was in a wheelchair, but the entire venue is accessible and that was no issue. Overall, both the space and the team were excellent, and I’d absolutely recommend the BEC without any hesitation. Thank you for helping to make my job so easy!

Emily's Catering was an extraordinary part of our wedding day at South Farms in Morris, CT. Rick and his team handled everything wonderfully; They were organized, prompt, responsive, enthusiastic, creative, and VERY well-priced. Because we decided not to hire a planner, it was crucial that we retain vendors who could operate self-sufficiently, and Emily's truly went above and beyond in every respect. They even accommodated serving my husband's home-brew, including making wood signs for us as a surprise. My husband and I still talk about how much we loved and appreciated them, and we enthusiastically recommend them to anyone seeking the perfect caterer for their wedding.

Rachel Kimberly Photography LLC 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
Bristol, CT
  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,500

Hey there! I'm Rachel! I'm a Connecticut-based wedding photographer, but I absolutely adore traveling all over the globe for photography. My creative approach to weddings includes visual artistry, passionate skill, and a heck of a good time! After all, this is the most amazing day of your life. So let's make it freakin' amazing! My love for people is the fire behind my love for photography and portraits, whether it's a wedding day, maternity photos, or family portraits. Because I come from a family with seven children, I bring the "everyone is family" vibe to each of my sessions, which allows all of my clients to be relaxed.

I cannot recommend Rachel enough. After spending a significant amount of time identifying what style of photography we preferred, Rachel’s photography came out well ahead of everyone else’s. Working with her was just as exceptional. Throughout the process, Rachel provided guidance and was a valuable resource given her knowledge as someone who has participated in many weddings. Our engagement shoot was the first proof that we had definitely chosen right. While we got lucky on the timing of the shoot (we nailed peak cherry blossom bloom), she truly transformed an average city park into an amazing setting. She was easy to get along with and took the stress out of the photoshoot process. She guided us through the park and through different poses seamlessly. When we got the photos back, far quicker than expected, we, and our families, were blown away by them. There was fantastic range too, from romantic to moody to playful. On the wedding day, she kept us on task while blending into the background. She made sure we kept moving through our shot list and captured everything, but during the formalities I forgot she was even there. We worked with a videographer she was not familiar with, but they collaborated effectively sharing shot ideas with each other without stepping on the other’s toes. Rachel and her second photographer did an excellent job of catching the little moments that we wanted to see but weren’t always present for. As with the engagement shoot, the final results were amazing. We can’t stop looking at all of them, from the funny candids to formal shots that make us feel like we could be on the cover of a magazine!

From our very first meeting with Rayleen to discuss what we wanted out of our wedding photos and engagement session, we knew we were in the right hands. She was bubbly, asked the right questions, giving us the feeling that she genuinely wanted to get to know us, and attentive to detail. These characteristics show through her work and we will treasure these photos for the rest of our lives. I also want to add that if you feel semi awkward having photos taken of you like I do, have no fear with Rayleen! I so appreciated that she would gently move me into a position that was the most flattering for me and made me feel so confident. Our photos came out so incredibly beautiful and we will be booking with Rayleen for any and all future events for photography.

Awarded Best of Zola
From start to finish, working with The Stately Rose team was a pleasure. From my initial conversation with Johanna about my vision for my look, I could tell this was the right salon for me and my girls. Her careful attention to detail and genuine care for me as a potential client impressed me. Throughout the process, Yoli, the bridal coordinator, responded to all of my questions promptly and cheerfully. Marielly and Janelle made me feel so comfortable and confident at my trial and were open and responsive to feedback and follow-up questions I had about my own look as well as questions my girls wanted to ask. On my wedding day, my bridesmaids, mom, and I got ready at the pink salon. The space is bright, airy, and full of cute spots for photos. Marielly and Janelle gave each of my girls the same VIP treatment they gave me at my trial and they kept us on time to ensure the rest of the day went smoothly. My group ranged widely in terms of needs (we had hair that was curly, straight, thick, and thin and girls who ranged from wearing little to no makeup regularly to girls who regularly go full glam and wanted bright and colorful looks), and each girl ended up with a look that was perfect for them! Our hair and makeup lasted all night long! While the final product was impressive, what stands out the most to me about working with The Stately Rose was how they made me feel. Every question or concern I had was treated as important (no matter how small) in the lead-up to the day. In the salon, Marielly and Janelle created a positive, fun, relaxed, and empowering environment. They were the ultimate hype-women all morning and they really set the tone for the day moving forward. It was especially meaningful to me how much care our team took in accommodating health and safety concerns among my party; requests we made to keep those with compromised immune systems or allergies comfortable and safe were made without hesitation. We all left the salon to start the rest of the busy and stressful day feeling like our best selves. I could not have asked for a better glam team and I’d recommend The Stately Rose to any bride-to-be without hesitation!

We should start by saying that we were very on the fence about a videographer for our wedding. We had a small, intimate ceremony of 50 people, and felt confident photographs would be sufficient. We can confidently say hiring Ben to film our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. Everyone warned us that the day would fly by, and it absolutely did. Ben was not only wonderful to work with, but also did an amazing job of capturing the day. He captured so many special moments that we would have missed, because there really is a lot that goes on, and has provided us such a special gift in being able to relive the best day of our lives (thus far). Ben is so skilled at his craft that he was everywhere and yet we did not feel as if we had a camera on us all night. Not to mention, he is warm, friendly, receptive to all questions, and very responsive. We are so thankful to have gotten to work with him, and could not provide a stronger recommendation.

Rachel was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! She made all of our visions come to life with stunning flowers, boutonnieres, centerpieces, and more. Her responsiveness and accommodating nature made the entire process stress-free, and her attention to detail is unmatched. Rachel also did the flowers for both of my older sisters’ weddings, and her work is consistently incredible. She goes above and beyond in everything she does.

Mel, Andy and Crew. We cannot begin to thank you and tell you how much fun we had at our wedding. You came highly recommended and you didn’t disappoint! The first day we met Andy he said he was going to have us crowd surfing and he did just that. His playlist was fire and was geared towards the entire crowd! You were all amazing and made our day so much more special and relaxing. We know we couldn't have done it without any of you! Mel and Kristina, we cannot wait to see our photos. You guys did not stop all night and captured every special moment for us! Ricky & Airen, again we can’t wait to see our video, they were running around all night long and kept up with the party all night long! Everyone came up to us and told us how amazing you all were. Thanks for getting everyone up on the dance floor all night long !! It truly was the best party! We are so blessed to have found them!

Welcome! I am a daughter of Vietnamese immigrants who chose to move to Connecticut, where I have lived for most of my life. I love the change of seasons in this part of the country and all the rich backdrops it brings for imagery (and mental health walks and runs). My cultural heritage is the foundation for my photographic passion. My camera allows me to work where I know I work best, behind-the-scenes, front row at some of the most profound moments in people's lives. In a pinch though, I'll be there carrying the train, making sure you don't get your shoes dirty and helping to support you where I can throughout your wedding day!

Kim was incredible to work with! She was so helpful in creating the timeline for our wedding day and giving us suggestions on how to make everything flow. She was on time, kept track of all the photos we wanted and made sure that everyone was in the right place at the right time. The photos are stunning too - I can’t wait to get the whole album back. I couldn’t recommend her more.
