We wanted to take some time to really express how amazing Cassie & Alex are, and how they were able to capture such tender moments so effortlessly while also being such kind and easy going people. My husband and I are so lucky to have collaborated with Beet & Blossom for our wedding this past June. We were able to genuinely enjoy our wedding thanks to them! We were speechless when we received our photos and will cherish them forever. Hiring Beet & Blossom was the best decision that we made wedding planning, hands down.

John is incredible. We were on the fence about having a videographer or not. I came across his info on a Facebook wedding group and decided to check out his work. After reviewing his website, I decided to reach out to him about his rates and some questions I had. We ended up doing his 6 hour package, and also customized it so we could get all of our raw footage. His pricing is extremely fair and we loved being able to get a highlight video and the raw footage with our first choice package. Hiring John for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. Our highlight video is absolutely amazing. It shows our story and our relationship perfectly. He incorporated exactly what we asked him to. Our family and friends love the highlight video he created for us, too. Not only do we love it, but he delivered it just six business days after our wedding!!! To anyone on the fence about a videographer - hire John! To anyone searching for a videographer - hire John!!!

Choosing the right location for your wedding is one of the most important and often the most challenging decisions to make. Let your imagination run wild at Connecticut’s Beardsley Zoo! Celebrate your special event in one of three unique spaces, including our Victorian Greenhouse, rustic Hanson Building or large Carousel Building with an indoor working carousel. Whether it’s your ceremony, reception, or rehearsal dinner, we are sure to have a venue to meet your wedding vision!

Why you'll love this venue

  • Rustic-chic setting
  • Has a relaxed and casual vibe
  • Wheelchair accessible

Venue considerations

  • Does not allow pets
  • Not for you if you don't want a rustic vibe
  • Does not have a dance floor
We had a beautiful wedding at the greenhouse of the Beardsley Zoo. The GlowWild light festival in the evening simply added to the magic of the event. The coordinators were wonderful in helping us set up and organize everything. If I had one piece of constructive feedback, it would just be that the head coordinator, Lindsay, was sometimes tricky to get in contact with via telephone for things like making our deposit and final payment for the venue.

Awarded Best of Zola
First of all - the end product was just beautiful. Everything from the bridal bouquet to the ceremony flowers to the table styling was exquisite and super unique. Shannon did a great job incorporating my favorite color (yellow) and a whimsical, organic wildness into the design exactly as I had hoped. From our first meeting to the written proposal, Shannon interpreted my thoughts and ideas exactly. I was so impressed that she took my ramblings and half ideas and pulled them together into what I was seeing in my head. Shannon’s GORGEOUS color palette informed the entire wedding design and gave me a jumping off point for invitations, bridesmaid dresses, other decor, etc. Unfortunately, the process of working with Shannon was a bit challenging. She struggled with nailing down details: incorrect number of tables, inconsistent accounting of candles/bud vases, etc. It took a number of incorrect proposal drafts until we got it right - just weeks before the wedding. We were honestly quite disappointed by Shannon’s flexibility and communication. She self-describes as being highly collaborative, but that was not our experience. First, as beer nerds, having hops in the design was super important to us, and while she flagged early on it could be an issue to source real ones, we discussed using fake. While we all agreed that she shouldn’t use fake hops if they looked bad, we were sad to see on the day of that they didn’t make it into the design. It would have been nice to have heard a heads up from her that she didn’t plan to use them - even if it was just a brief mention on the day-of. Second, when our cake plans fell through at the last minute, we asked Shannon if she could possibly supply a few flowers for our small 6” cutting cake. She told us she would try, but later we heard from the bakery that she had given them a flat no. She never communicated her decision to us. Thankfully, the bakery pulled something together for us (shout out to Zest Pastry!). Third, the Monday before the wedding, Shannon sent an alarming email with the subject line “Head Advisory, Oh No!”, asking us what our plan was. Getting any email titled “Oh No” isn’t fun to receive less than a week before your wedding. Further, as a trusted wedding vendor, we would hope that she would have plans for weather or unexpected events rather than looking to us during a very stressful period. Lastly, (and most disappointingly) despite having a run of day schedule, Shannon was nowhere to be found when it was time to put on boutonnieres and corsages. Our photographers and party thankfully jumped in to help to avoid major delays to portraits (shout out to Katie Slater!). Fundamentally, the product Shannon provided was beyond compare - everything was beautiful. That said, the communication, coordination, and organization were lacking from our experience.

Here at Tree Films, we make your story a priority. We strive to get to know our couples and how they came to be, down to the silly coincidences and weird first dates. We like to think that our mission goes beyond just documenting your wedding day -- the goal is to create an unforgettable experience! We are invested in making each video as genuine as possible, as if your story was being told by a best friend who witnessed all the important stuff. Tell us who you are as a couple and let us put together a video that tells the story from day one to I do!

Treefilms is a stellar photography and videography company! After our venue, they were the second vendor we booked as photography and videography was very important to us. Ashley was responsive and kind from the beginning! She was open to our ideas in regard to location and then made it look even better in the photo video! We felt so comfortable during that shoot and at our wedding in front of the camera with them. They gave us enough direction that it was easy to know what to do, but did not result in stiff or overly posed pictures. The candid shots that they captured throughout the wedding day are photos we will cherish; they were able to capture all the emotions so perfectly. The team worked seamlessly with all the other vendors, they truly know what they’re doing! (Shoutout to Ashley for doing up the buttons on my dress!) Our wedding video is a work of art, I don’t think it’s comparable to the standard videos produced by other vendors. Treefilms is the vendor we recommend most to friends and family, and we look forward to working with them again in the future!

From the very first interaction, George was incredibly professional, friendly, and attentive to our vision for the wedding day. It was clear right away that he was not only passionate about his craft but also genuinely cared about making our day as special as possible. The photos he took are absolutely stunning! George has an incredible talent for capturing the most beautiful, candid, and emotional moments—often without us even realizing. We are amazed at how he was able to preserve all the little details and big moments, from the quiet, intimate glances to the burst of laughter on the dance floor. Not only that, he had an added challenge because we held our reception at the Aquarium, and no flash photography was allowed, but you definitely could not tell - George made it work seamlessly! Every picture tells a story, and we now have a treasure trove of unforgettable memories to cherish forever. What truly stood out to us, though, was how George went above and beyond. He not only captured every essential moment but also made sure we felt comfortable, relaxed, and at ease throughout the entire day. Their positive attitude and seamless coordination with our wedding planner, vendors, and guests ensured everything flowed smoothly. He was there for every special moment, often anticipating the perfect shot before we even realized it was happening. On top of his talent and professionalism, George is just an amazing human being. He is kind, thoughtful, and respectful. We are so grateful for the beautiful work he did and for the lasting memories he’s given us.

I'm a licensed esthetician and makeup artist. My background is in TV and working for several beauty companies across the country. We do a lot of maternity/family session hair & makeup during the week and weddings on weekends. However, I'm always down for a weekday wedding having eloped myself. Our beauty team specializes in natural makeup applications and romantic hair styling. We travel to you for your special day or event.

Working with Kim and the team at Eye for Beauty was a dream! As many others have said, I don't wear make-up or style my hair normally, so I was nervous about having to "wear a face" on my wedding day. But my nerves quickly subsided after my hair and make-up trial. DEFINITELY DO THE TRIAL! My concerns were heard and, even though I was unsure about wearing lashes, I barely could tell they were on after a few minutes. Day-of, they were very familiar with the venue (Bill Miller's Castle), and so everything went smoothly (and ahead of schedule!). They were even kind enough to have a stylist/artist go to a family member's hotel room too! Highly recommend choosing Eye for Beauty as your hair/make-up team, especially if you are not typically one to wear make-up!

Hey there. I’m Amar, a lifestyle photographer and visual storyteller based in Norwalk, Connecticut. I was pulled into photography during my junior year of high school and haven't looked back since. My camera has taken me across the country and halfway around the world. I have been granted the unique privilege to tell other people's stories, now I want to tell yours.

Amar was a wonderful photographer and we were lucky enough to have him capture our special day- our wedding. He has a keen and artistic eye for candid shots that really highlight the beauty of the moment. He had wonderful ideas for poses and made sure to make us feel at ease and comfortable while shooting. Highly recommend!

Lauren was an amazing wedding photographer! When I told her I wanted to take pictures at a second location she went on her own time to scope out the scenery and lighting. Her calm demeanor really put us at ease in front of the camera. She got us our photos back so fast and she even photoshopped out my bra strap. I would highly recommend Lauren and will definitely use her again for our next special event.

From pre planning to the day, the staff was kind, attentive, and organized. We felt very well taken care of and our day ran so smoothly thanks to our event coordinator, Zuleika.

The best decision you can make for your wedding (besides your soon to be spouse!) is to hire Hector. We bought one of the packages with music, lights, and photo booth. All I heard throughout the night was “I love every song!” Or “this is my favorite song!” I was worried that no one would be dancing and the floor was packed all night. We didn’t want the dancing to end. Not to mention that the photos from the photo booth were amazing, lots of great props. I had no idea how weddings work - schedule, timetables, etc. Hector patiently explained what should be done when, helped with music selections for cocktail hour and dinner, kept us on schedule all night, and overall was a really fun addition to the party. His online system is really easy to use. Also, I felt that he went above and beyond the call of DJ, seeing as my dress caught on the door as I’m about to walk down the aisle and have no hands free. He was there fixing it before anyone could notice what happened. He handled every curve ball With ease and minimal stress for me - like changing dates due to Covid, caterers setting up tables where the photo booth was to go, forecast of pouring rain for our outdoor wedding, etc etc. I was stressed out enough and I can’t describe how helpful it was to be working with someone who minimized stressful situations or took care of things without me even knowing about them. Thank you Hector for everything you did to help create the best night of my life! We are so grateful!

As a wedding photographer with many years of experience, I have come to appreciate the beauty of genuine moments and the power of the little details. They provide a timeless and elegant look that truly captures the essence of a wedding day. I am based in New England, but I travel often for weddings! Some of my favorite places to shoot are the beaches and the city of Newport, RI. There is nothing like the White Mountains in New Hampshire. The old cobblestone roads of Boston and the skyline of NYC. Charleston, SC is somewhere I would like to call home one day but for now traveling there for weddings and engagements might be my favorite.

Andy is the BEST in her craft. Her devotion to her couples, their satisfaction and her work is unmatched. She truly cares about capturing the types of memories that couples will treasure for a lifetime. 20/10 recommend!

I am a photographer and storyteller. For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by stories and traditions. I am passionate about documenting real human connections and I love learning all the meanings behind details at weddings and celebrations. When I’m not photographing, I can be found spending time with family and friends, exploring new places, and craving tacos. I love meeting new people, making new friends, and connecting with my clients. I can’t wait to get to know you, so let’s talk!

I fell in love with Beth's portfolio immediately after browsing through 30+ photographer's websites. Her style is very natural, romantic, and full of attention to details. She's always communicative throughout the process. On our wedding day she really made us feel at ease and our photos are so genuine and fun! We planned a fun entrance that didn't completely go according to plan, but Beth stayed calm and helped make it happen. Her quick turn-around also way exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much Beth!

Earthplace was perfect for our 145-person ceremony. It is stunning, unique and great for those on a budget, as the space needs no additional rentals or decorations. Truly cannot beat this venue, and the staff was responsive, helpful and accommodating every step of the way. They worked seamlessly with our vendors to allow for a bar truck and chuppah to be installed without disrupting the nature/wildlife.
