The Colonial Hotel was a perfect venue for our wedding Reception. From the moment we reached out, the team there was quick to respond and provided us with detailed information to help us plan our special event. Mary and all the staff we dealt with were very helpful in making our day truly special. The beautiful ballroom with the wood floors made for a night of fun dancing; the ballroom windows, outside stonework of the building and the gazebo made for some stunning photos. We received great comments from our guests on the appetizers and meal. It was a beautiful setting for our wedding celebration and we were very glad to find it.

We chose Comeketo to reflect our Latin-American fusion wedding. From the initial tasting through the planning process to the reception, Comeketo exceeded expectations. They were easy to work with and delivered a very customized menu and presentation. This was no cookie-cutter wedding meal. Our guests all commented on the beautifully presented and unique appetizers during the cocktail reception, including the stunning fruit tower centerpiece. For the main dinner, the Churrasco bbq service for dinner (meat on swords!) was a unique and memorable part of the reception. Many thanks to Rodrigo and Toni for bringing our vision to life!

Hi! My name is Danny, and I am a professional makeup artist with over 15 years of experience in the industry. I have a passion for creating beautiful and unique looks, and I have honed my craft in various areas, including bridal, editorial, and New York Fashion Week. Throughout my career, I have worked with a diverse range of clients and am well-versed in tailoring my skills to meet their specific needs. Whether it's for a classic bridal look or a bold and avant-garde editorial spread, I have the expertise to make it happen.

Awarded Best of Zola
I absolutely loved working with Danny at Fine Line Artistry for my makeup, and Lia for my hair! I was looking for a hair and makeup artist that had the skill you would get for editorial, but still was able to work with me to make sure I looked like an elevated, bridal version of myself, and Danny was it! He is such a kind and warm person, was so communicative throughout the entire process, and really helped me figure out what I wanted my hair and makeup to look like. The trail I did with him and Lia before my wedding day was basically almost perfect to begin with, despite the fact that I came in with a vague idea of what I wanted and a couple of inspo photos that I struggled to explain. On the wedding day, Danny and Lia came to our hotel room and were incredibly fast and professional, in addition to doing an absolutely amazing job and working with very different hair and makeup styles between the bridal party. I essentially didn’t sleep the night before because I was so excited, but you couldn’t tell at all in photos because they did such a phenomenal job! Plus, the makeup and hair stayed incredibly well all night for me and my bridesmaids. Fine Line Artistry is an amazing place to get your hair and makeup for your wedding in Boston!

We cannot thank Lauryn enough for making our wedding at Harrington Farm unforgettable! As our event specialist, she was with us every step of the way, always just a phone call or email away. When the rain started the moment I got to the altar, Lauryn didn’t hesitate—she ran to get umbrellas for us and our parents, ensuring we stayed dry during such an important moment. Her quick thinking and preparedness in that unexpected situation really highlighted her dedication and care. Throughout the entire process, Lauryn’s communication and attention to detail were remarkable. She had everything we could possibly need on hand during the wedding, prepared for any potential emergency. Thanks to her, our day ran smoothly, and we could relax and enjoy every moment.

We hired Luis Andrade of Lionizing Entertainment for our wedding, and we are SO GLAD we did! We were looking for someone who would let us have a lot of control over our music, and we got so much more. He took our requests into consideration and did a fantastic job building upon them. Luis was funny, welcoming, worked with my grandparents on getting mics connected for the videos they were taking, played excellent music, worked off of our highly curated playlists for the cocktail hour and reception, and kept the dance floor full for hours. I have never had so much fun dancing at a wedding. I highly recommend him as a DJ, I wish there was another event coming up where we could hire him again. We’ve attended quite a few weddings by this point and he outshined every other DJ we’ve seen.

We booked Spike Events for our October wedding and Spenser was absolutely amazing! We had several meetings beforehand and he was on top of every concern we had. We had a wedding at a private residence outside, so electrical needs were tricky. Spenser was thorough in what he needed supplied from us and we were able to get the right electrical needs for both his sound system and the two arcade tables we rented. He also was such a fun personality to have around and added so much to the party! We have so many great photos of everyone up and dancing due to his skill of keeping things fun! He did a great job following our timeline and was very helpful in adding to it as needed when we weren't sure how to schedule things such as first dance, cake cutting and parental dances. We had aunts and uncles that I've NEVER seen dance, out on the floor tearing it up!You would not regret hiring this company!

Brian is one of the best wedding DJs in the business. In the past two years I’ve been to eight different weddings. Brian was the DJ for three of the eight, and the party/reception component of the events was never more fun than when Brian was driving the bus. He is an east coast DJ, but he spun tracks at both of my sister-in-laws’ weddings and as we were searching for a DJ for our own wedding we reached out just to see what he would charge for a wedding in Chicago. Turns out the price was right. Brian traveled to Chicago, MC’d our entire wedding, brought all of the equipment necessary and made our day exceptional in every way. I think there are a few things that really set Brian apart from other wedding DJs. Anyone can stand there and run through a playlist, but Brian went off book a few times to match and capture the energy of the guests. As we were in the midst of the planning process he added zero stress, and just calmly walked us through the process of selecting songs. He had suggestions and recommendations along the way. He even brought an extra speaker so that we could plug our digital piano in and the pianist would be able to play loudly enough. Overall, we can’t recommend Brian highly enough. You will not regret choosing him to DJ at your wedding, party, event. Whatever it is, Brian is a huge value add and a pleasure to work with.

Awarded Best of Zola
Greg was AMAZING!!! I couldn't recommend his services more. Firstly, he was so so so professional. He was so ontime with everything and organized which was so helpful for a very stressed and busy bride trying to pull off a wedding! He also had so many really fun ideas for the wedding - like an anniversary dance for all married couples to see who has been married for the longest. He kept us running on time throughout the day, but was also so flexible when we had changes like a couple last minute speeches added in. We also had some very specific requests from him, such as a combined first dance with a fun fast part and then a slow romantic part and he did the perfect job of making the music for it! I was also so surprised at how many people were on the dance floor because the music was so fun - I didn't expect our guests to be very into dancing but the dance floor was completely filled all night! I was also really impressed with how he incorporated our very eclectic music playlists, really neatly blending bollywood songs with 80s disco with current hits so everyone had fun and everything flowed so smoothly. Finally, we had the selfie station and our guests had an ABSOLUTE BLAST with it and I had so much fun looking through all the pictures the next day. Overall, couldn't recommend Greg more, he was the best DJ ever, absolutely perfect.

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than Joe for our wedding! From the start, he matched our energy perfectly, creating a fun and relaxed atmosphere that made the day so much more enjoyable. He was able to put everyone at ease while still maintaining a high level of professionalism. Joe's communication and attention to detail were spot-on, and he helped keep everything running smoothly and on schedule. He captured every moment beautifully, and we’re so grateful to have had him with us on such a special day. Highly recommend Joe to anyone looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also a joy to work with!

The Traveling Tee Events

  • Planner
  • Offers 4 services

  • Serves Gardner, MA

Curating timeless memories with the beauty God gave us. Sustainably-focused, intentional design for intimate experiences. We offer full planning and design, month of coordination plus, and content creation through our Moments by The Traveling Tee Events division.

My only regret was having Steph as my “day of” coordinator - we should have hired her to help plan our whole wedding. Even though we hired her for our wedding day only, she started having calls with us around a month prior and began organizing day-of logistics with all of our vendors. We had planned a weekend at camp for 200 people, and Steph stayed the whole weekend to make sure everything went smoothly. She even carried over 100 pints of cider to a freezer in a cellar with me when I realized that they couldn’t sit in guests’ cabins at room temperature! Beyond her coordination help, Steph is a super kind and fun person to have at your wedding. We had a bonfire until around 2am on our wedding night and Steph was out there with us, celebrating and making sure we were having fun. My sister is getting married in June and she’s working Steph too. Steph is wonderful and I cannot recommend her enough.

I can truly say that my wedding day was perfect and everything I ever imagined. Jasmine and the estate staff was incredible to work with as they made sure our needs were met throughout the day and kept everything on staff. I was so relaxed!! My vision was executed perfectly and they were so sweet even the next morning as my husband and I were able to stay there that night. Their attention to detail and making your wedding week the best it can be is wonderful. I could not recommend The Harding Allen Estate more!

Pleasant Valley Country Club provided an amazing experience for our wedding day. Their communication from the initial inquiry through the big day was incredible - they were always responsive, helpful, and made us feel like their top priority. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, with a gorgeous outdoor space and elegant indoor ballroom. The food was delicious and our guests raved about it.

The Barn at Wight Farm was an absolute lifesaver for our wedding. When we had to switch venues six months before the big day, the team there was incredibly prompt, knowledgeable, and clear in their communication, making the transition seamless. Their fall decor was stunning and perfectly complemented our vision, and the value was unbeatable. On the day of, we had a dedicated bridal attendant who ensured we were able to fully enjoy our food, drinks, and each other without having to worry about the logistics. The ample parking and beautiful photo spots were an added bonus that our guests raved about.

I’ve never been more excited to write a review for someone! From start to finish, working with Sara was a joy - she was extremely responsive, kind, and organized. She did the bouquets for myself and my wedding party, as well as arch flowers and boutonnières for groomsmen. She even threw in a few stems for our wedding cake and stayed after the ceremony to move the arch flowers to our dessert table. I could not believe my eyes when I saw the final product - it’s like she read my mind and made all my autumnal dreams come true. They were truly the perfect fall wedding flowers! Thank you Sara!
