Fountainhead Floral Design 
Rating: 5.0 (48 reviews)
Milford, CT
  • Florist
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Offer

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).

Our wedding day was everything and way better than was imagined and our florals from Fountainhead were breathtaking! I gave Kate some inspo pictures and what actually arrived that morning, was better than imagined! Many of our pictures take place in front of barrels and the colors from the bouquet just elevates everything! All of our guests commented on how amazing and unique our florals were. I can't thank the team enough for bringing my vision for my wedding to life!

We are absolutely thrilled with the floral arrangements from Rebel Rose for our wedding! From the initial consultation to the final setup, the entire experience was exceptional. Tracy has an incredible eye for design and truly understood our coastal meets Bridgerton vision. She created stunning bouquets, centerpieces, and alter arrangements that perfectly complemented our wedding theme and added a touch of elegance to every detail. The flowers were not only beautiful but also fresh and vibrant, making a lasting impression on our guests. What really stood out was her attentiveness and dedication to bringing our ideas to life. I had collected more vases than I had originally planned on and Tracy ran with it. She made vignettes of large vases and bud vases, taking a fresh spin on things by using one flower type per vase. Her suggestions turned out even better than I imagined. Tracy’s professionalism and passion for her craft was evident throughout the process. The florals were one of the highlights of our wedding day, and we are so grateful to Tracy for her exceptional work. Thank you for making our special day even more beautiful with your incredible floral designs!

DJ Konsept 
Rating: 5.0 (15 reviews)
Milford, CT
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,900

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!

Lauren Flanagan Design 
Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
Milford, CT
  • Florist
  • Starts at $3,000

Forever a lover of nature, I draw inspiration from the natural world and am most at peace and at home among the plants and trees. I love spending time outdoors, hiking with my dog, and working in my garden growing food and flowers. I have a life long passion for art and design and have worked as an artist for much of my life. In 2013 I found myself fusing my love for art and flowers when I began working in floral design. I quickly fell in love with the ritual of creating with fresh florals. In the years since, I've had the opportunity to hone my skills and style and provide unique and gorgeous designs for some wonderful couples.

Working with Lauren was incredible. I had a loose idea of what I wanted, whimsical wildflowers, but no great inspiration pictures. Lauren understood my vision and her arrangements were more beautiful than I could have dreamed. She went above and beyond helping me work within my budget, and even hand cut dahlias the day before our wedding! She is easy to work with and incredibly kind. Every part of the process felt stress free and exciting. There isn’t a single negative thing I could say. Lauren is an incredible person and a floral artist!

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!

  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $975

I have been telling stories with a camera since I was a child. I am a romantic at heart, and that lead me into the field of filming weddings. I have a true passion for it that shows in everything I do. We have a discrete shooting style that allows us to capture what we need, without being in the way.

As the mother of the bride, I hired and paid for Wedding Films by Spetrino Pictures to capture our daughter's special day. From the beginning, their communication was excellent - they were incredibly responsive, considerate, and made sure they were fully prepared for everything in advance so we didn't have to remind them of a single thing. On the day of the wedding, it felt like they were truly happy to be there with us. The quality of their work was exceptional - they captured all the perfect moments, and the way they combined the music with the video was absolute perfection. We are thrilled with the final product and would highly recommend Spetrino Pictures to any couple looking for a talented videography team to document their wedding day.

Psychic Grocery

Milford, CT
  • Event extras
  • Fortune teller/tarot
  • Starts at $600

Kali Quinn is an Intuitive Tarot Reader, Clairvoyant, and Reiki Practitioner based between New Haven, CT and Woodstock, NY. She has been working with her intuitive gifts for over 22 years, beginning at age 12. Drawing from a lifelong relationship with spirit, she weaves tarot, channeling, mediumship, energy healing, and ritual to help others reconnect with their inner truth. Her work is grounded in clarity, kindness, and care, and infused with humor and warmth. Through her practice, Psychic Grocery, Kali offers intuitive readings and ritual experiences that are empowering, illuminating, and genuinely fun.

Kali is genuinely made to do this. I’ve known Kali for a long time but had lost contact over the years as our lives went different paths. We reconnected when I booked a 1 hour tarot/reiki session with her. After not speaking for probably a decade, Kali was seamlessly able to tune into my current energetic state (so much so that she literally developed the anxious stomachache that I was currently experiencing, which was wild.) Over the past year, Kali has helped me better understand what I need out of my motherhood and spirituality journey. The reiki session with her genuinely blew my mind, I literally saw rainbows with my eyes closed and I’ve never experienced anything like it. Kali is highly intuitive, professional and spot on with her services. She also has such a wide range of services to offer but would also work with a client to give them exactly what they need. I would recommend anyone who’s been on the fence about getting a reading or booking a session to jump right in and be amazed.

Jackie is an award-winning Connecticut Wedding Photographer that has been capturing love’s best moments since 2005. Leading with her background in fashion photography, and inspiration from the beautiful backdrops of New England, her style is cinematic, romantic, elegant and just plain fun if we’re being honest. She creates lasting images for the couples who exude boundless curiosity, and personal style. Integrating into your day, this isn’t just wedding photography for your event, but someone who truly cares about how you feel and making your experience is the best ever. You are getting married after all - Pop the champagne and let’s go!

Jackie was the best to work with. I'm not huge on being photographed, but she was great at making us feel comfortable. She was also easy to get in touch with, responding to emails within a few days. I'm glad we did an engagement shoot to get to know her a little before the wedding day and help ease the photography anxiety. We got a handful of sneak peek shots a few weeks after the wedding, which was exciting, followed by the full set of photos a few weeks after that. The photos are beautiful and capture our day perfectly. I don't even remember seeing her at the ceremony I was so focused on everything else, but she captured it and all our emotions beautifully. She also was very good at getting through the portrait photos quickly, as I had a lot of family members to move around. Very happy to have worked with her.

Connecticut Makeup Artist | Jennifer Ballard

  • Team of 1
  • Starts at $1,000

Jennifer Ballard is an expert CT bridal makeup artist makeup artist with over 17 years of experience who specializes in on-location bridal, print, editorial, film/TV, fashion & runway, modeling portfolio and corporate makeup. We specialize in "soft glam", sophisticated glamour and provide on-location and in-studio services in CT, RI, and parts of MA, utilizing the latest techniques in makeup artistry and are available for any occasion or photo shoot. Airbrush makeup and false lashes available. Additional makeup artists for large wedding parties available as well.

Jennifer is an exceedingly talented makeup artist. In the weeks leading up to my wedding, I went through a number of makeup trials with MUAs who didn't seem receptive to what I wanted for my wedding day. Jennifer proved the polar opposite in asking for both inspiration photos and my aesthetic preferences. Likewise, the products she used in my preview were long-lasting yet looked luminous and natural; even my fiance praised her work, saying it was his "favorite look by far." On the big day, instead of fretting about bridal beauty mishaps, I felt more than confident leaving my makeup--as well as that of my wedding party--in Jennifer's capable hands. I can't recommend her highly enough!

  • Indoor
  • Starts at $1

No matter who you are, or where you are on life’s journey, you’re welcome here.” Situated on the picturesque duck pond in Milford, First UCC is a historic and inclusive sanctuary dedicated to celebrating love in all its forms. As an Open and Affirming Congregation, we proudly welcome LGBT+ weddings and couples from all walks of life to begin their marriage journey within our walls. Whether you envision a grand, traditional ceremony or a quiet, tender exchange of vows, our venue offers two distinct spaces to suit your vision. Our historic Meetinghouse Sanctuary provides a breathtaking, monumental backdrop with soaring ceilings and classic architecture, while our Plymouth Building Chapel offers a warm, intimate atmosphere for those sharing their day with a close circle of family and friends.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Has a warm and cozy vibe
  • Designed for grand celebrations
  • Raw space for complete customization

Venue considerations

  • Not for you if you are drawn to more unconventional venues
  • No on-premises lodging options
  • No dedicated areas for getting ready
We had our small family wedding at First UCC of Milford and couldn’t have been happier with our choice. The natural light in the sanctuary is gorgeous, and having the option between a small chapel and larger sanctuary was incredibly helpful - we ultimately chose the larger space, which had the traditional center aisle that was perfect for our ceremony. Reverend Adam and Reverend Ashley are both amazing to work with. Adam was thoughtful, flexible, and supportive throughout the planning process, helping us figure out exactly what we needed for our intimate family celebration. He even connected us with an organist, which made the ceremony feel truly special. Practical details: There’s plenty of parking, and the church hall downstairs has AC and a kitchen, which is great for receptions or gatherings. The sanctuary itself isn’t air conditioned, but that wasn’t an issue for our June wedding. The location is unbeatable for photos! The iconic Milford town green with its bridge and duck pond provided stunning backdrops - our photographer was thrilled with the options, and those spots have been treasured by generations of couples. So many friends who saw our pictures had taken their own in the same spot, some over 50 years ago. Working with this church was such a meaningful experience that I have since become a member. We are so grateful our wedding brought us to this wonderful community.

  • Classic style

Hello and thanks for stopping by! My professional career as a Connecticut wedding photographer started nearly 20 years ago after attending photography school in Vancouver. I returned home to Milford, CT in 2000, started the business, and have been capturing wedding stories ever since!

My husband and I were so lucky to have Kevin at our wedding. He is a delight to work with, came up with ideas for our portraits and was a pleasure to have around. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. We have only gotten a few photos back because we were only married 2 weeks ago, but I have no heistation in recomending him highly and without delay! He has a fresh, relaxed style. We were more interested in the "Money Shots" and candids than anything formal. Kevin did do some formal portait shots, so don't think that he won't if you want that, but we are really looking forward to our photos. He was wonderful to communicate with and could ot have been easier to work with. His prices are reasonable. You will be a lucky couple indeed if you can secure his services! Do not hesitate.

Words can’t fully express how incredible Destiny and Mac are. (Mac is her soon to be husband videographer @the.flamekeepers) Not only as talented professionals, but as genuinely kind and thoughtful people. From the moment they arrived at our venue, they went above and beyond. Mac immediately began learning and writing down the names of everyone in the bridal party, while Destiny jumped in to help tidy the bridal suite to ensure every photo looked perfect. We didn’t have the most hands-on coordinator, but Destiny and Mac didn’t miss a beat. They seamlessly stepped in, kept everything on track, and made sure we captured every moment we hoped for and so many we didn’t even think to ask for. Their calm, can-do attitude and dedication to making our day special was felt by everyone. Throughout the night, guests and our wedding party couldn’t stop talking about how amazing they were. And once we saw the sneak peeks of the photos and video they shared absolutely stunning and the praise only grew louder. We are beyond grateful to have had Destiny and Mac with us on our big day. They are true professionals and even better people. Please book with them you will not regret it!!

We truly could not have asked for a better officiant for our wedding! Eloise was everything we hoped for kind, professional, and incredibly organized and she went above and beyond to create a ceremony that was heartfelt, personal, and unforgettable. From our very first interaction, she made everything feel so easy. She brought us a full, beautifully written ceremony plan that felt like it was crafted just for us. She took the time to get to know our story and wove it into the ceremony in such a meaningful way from our high school beginnings and proposal at Wallace Park, to the small things that make our relationship special, like our shared love of travel and beach trips. One of our favorite parts was how she incorporated the Sand Ceremony. It was something we really wanted, and she made it feel so symbolic and unique to us. Her words during that moment, about blending our lives while still honoring who we are as individuals, were so touching. Standing together at that table, surrounded by our loved ones, felt like the perfect representation of our union. She also honored our late grandparents with such grace and respect, bringing them into the ceremony in a way that felt spiritual and comforting. From her guidance for our family during the opening, to the blessing at the end, she brought clarity, presence, and peace to every step. She managed to strike the perfect balance between emotional, thoughtful, and light-hearted (including a little humor that made us and our guests smile!). Every guest felt included and every word felt intentional. Having her as our officiant made our ceremony not just official, but truly meaningful. We are so grateful for her work and presence on such an important day. If you are looking for someone who will thoughtfully and lovingly guide you through your wedding ceremony, she is absolutely the one. Thanks again! – Logan & Kaelyn

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.

On the day of our wedding, they made sure my husband and I were able to eat and drink enough throughout the night, and they were very accommodating when the weather changed quickly. Woodwinds is worth every penny - they truly went above and beyond to make our special day perfect.

Willow & Grey 
Rating: 5.0 (13 reviews)
  • Florist
  • Serves Milford, CT

I instinctually fell in love with the creativity of floral design and it wasn’t long until Willow & Grey was born. 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.

I can't say enough good things about Renee and the incredible work she did for our wedding. From the moment I first met her, it was clear she had an amazing gift. She took my scattered ideas and turned them into a breathtaking vision. The arrangements and installations she created were nothing short of magical—each piece was carefully crafted, with stunning attention to detail. I couldn't believe how she brought together all the elements I envisioned, while also adding her own artistic touches that made everything even more beautiful than I imagined. Renee truly brought our wedding to life with her flowers, and I’m so grateful for her talent and dedication. If you want someone who can turn your floral dreams into reality, Renee is the one to go to!

JR Media Solutions

  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Milford, CT

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!
