Scarlet Roots

Swampscott, MA
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $6,000

My photography career started 7 years ago in the editorial world - shooting for big brands like Sephora, Miller Coors, T-Mobile, and Wanderlust. Commercial work was cool and all… until I shot my first wedding. I just knew by the happiness bubbling up in my heart that THIS is the industry I was made for. Being surrounded by happiness and love on such a meaningful day is SO fulfilling and inspiring to me. I absolutely adore my job, and I’m so freakin’ grateful to have the honor of documenting such a special occasion for you.

Jules is at the #1 top spot of my vendor list. When I'm not available for a wedding or portrait session, I tell everyone to hire HER! Problem is, she's usually pretty booked up because she's THAT popular and good at making her couples feel comfortable and at ease. I have worked dozens of weddings with her and have seen her behind-the-scenes client processes, communication, surprises, the whole Scarlet Roots experience... and she's the real deal inside and out. If you're looking for a bubbly, caring, sweet, hilarious person to guide you through your wedding from the planning process to a year later, you gotta go with Scarlet Roots. She's an absolute rock star in the Boston wedding industry!!!

Olio: Modern / Industrial Event Space

  • Up to 250 guests

This historic space has been outfitted with every modern amenity to be the ideal space to host the perfect wedding. We provide a non-traditional venue so that our clients have a blank slate to start from and can make the space their own.

If you can dream it, it can be done at Olio. Located just North of Boston, Massachusetts, in the heart of New England, the venue is conveniently located and easily accessible to Logan Airport and nearby accommodations and attractions. Olio welcomes all and actively seeks out LGBTQIA+ identifying clients. Pricing and lots more information, including FAQs and tips/tricks are on Olio's website and social media accounts. Inquire today to schedule a tour!

Awarded Best of Zola
My now husband and I were nervous about the entire wedding process, knowing we wanted something a bit simpler, more intimate, and “nontraditional” in this day in age. We found Olio through social media and booked a tour right away. Walking up the staircase quite literally took my breath away. I was an emotional bride :) but the vast concrete walls, original flooring, and high ceilings brought tears to my eyes. We were “one and done.” Sarah, her team, and what they have created on Main Street is truly magic. We chose some budget friendly options (for items such as flowers and decor) but no matter the size, every bride is treated with luxury customer service. I’m not sure how we got so lucky, it feels like we found some sort of precious gem. We struggled to find the right words to do it all justice. Simply put, we feel so grateful. Grateful to have found Olio, Sarah, and experienced the magic firsthand. Each of our guests who attended was more taken with the space than the next. We cannot recommend it enough; you simply have to experience it for yourself.

Corinne and Molly made our day so seamless to the point where my husband and I could focus on us and our guests. From our first meeting to the day, they worked through hiccups with vendors that we would have missed and gave us amazing recommendations to make our wedding day perfect. We came ready and prepared with all of our vendors, and they stitched up the final communications for the wedding and made it so seamless, even finding another vendor for napkins 2 hours before the day started because ours forgot them! Not only are they amazing coordinators, but they're amazing people. Any communication that we had with Corinne and/or Molly felt so curated to us, and although we knew that they were coordinating other weddings, it felt that they had all their efforts focused on us. We got married 2 weeks ago and cannot stop talking about how amazing our day was because of them! Fun story as well, my bustle kept falling every 10 seconds and right before our grand entrance I decided to just cut the dress, and Corinne came down with scissors ready to be a seamstress! Anything we needed they always said yes to and we could not have been more grateful to them.

Long Hill 

4.9

Beverly, MA
  • Venue
  • Up to 150 guests
  • Raw space
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $6,000

Elegant plantings and cultivated grounds fill this public garden with vibrancy that's more than a century in the making. Long Hill is a property of The Trustees of Reservations, a Massachusetts non-profit corporation. From 1916 to 1979, Long Hill was the summer home of noted author and editor of The Atlantic Monthly, Ellery Sedgwick. He summered here with his first wife, Mabel Cabot Sedgwick, an accomplished horticulturist, gardener, and author of The Garden Month by Month, and his second wife, Marjorie Russell Sedgwick, a rare plants specialist—both of whom created a delightful, enchanting landscape, surrounded by more than 100 acres of woodland. Today, visitors delight in the beauty of Long Hill’s structured and naturalistic gardens as well as a network of woodland trails. A diverse collection of trees, shrubs, and distinctive perennial plants provide color during the growing season, peaking in May and June and providing structure and beauty throughout the year.

Awarded Best of Zola
Long Hill was a dream, it felt like a private fairy garden. Gorgeous location and the perfect size for us to take photos privately and guests to explore but not feel too far away (for wrangling from cocktail hour to dinner for example). The Long Hill staff were super communicative and responsive, sometimes a little stressful to work with as it felt like there were a number of restrictions but this really translated to a very stream-lined and well-organized wedding day as they brought up any potential issues early and then on the actual day they were super, super supportive and great to work with. They do have a list of 5 set caterers you need to work with, we were given an exception because of a dietary restriction my in-laws have (need to pay a 1000 fee), but this was tricky as Long Hill expects caterers to take on much more than just food. You'll also want to rent a dance floor (700 in the area) as the under tent area is brick. We had 115 of us total with buffet & dance floor, it was cozy & lovely but any more than 120 would feel tight to me. We were able to have a ceremony for an extra 1000 and then the reception was 5,200 for 5-10 on a Friday. In addition to the gorgeous gardens and beautiful cocktail area off the porch, we could take photos inside which was really lovely and a great break from the heat (our wedding day was 85 and VERY humid). Felt very professionally run and they worked well with my dear friend who was our day-of-coordinator and we just feel extremely grateful to have such a gorgeous location!

Based in Boston, MA and Detroit, MI, yet available worldwide. My wedding photography is an editorial, documentary + romantic style with a creative addition of film, and a mindset of authenticity being captured endlessly.

It was an incredible day made all the better with Matao. I feel like it might be hard to find a photographer that *really* picks up on what you're going for and we nailed it with him. He is up for an adventure and the occasional challenge (including cellphone photographer family members, lol)! Matao's wife and assistant Danielle and second photographer Brooke were so lovely and took note of so many maybe otherwise forgotten details, things I wouldn't have even thought of as great pictures. We wanted someone with a deep connection to the city we live in and love, with a great sense of humor, and could roll with the punches and occasional quick change of plans that happen with a wedding, and we truly could not recommend him highly enough. We will treasure our photos forever.

We wanted intimate, personal, simple, and classic...and we found all of these things in Tessa. Tessa always put our vision at the forefront of her work, and she worked with us every step of the planning process to make our elopement seamless. She suggested venues, worked with our busy schedules to coordinate planning meetings, and even served as our officiant. Throughout it all, she was the perfect balance of honesty, warmth, and professionalism, and we would work with her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Tessa, for everything. You are amazing!

I’m a Virginia transplant who makes her home north of Boston shooting micro-weddings and elopements. I’m obsessed with the diversity and energy of the city, but also with how easy it is to escape to nature in New England. As an introvert, I definitely need both! I’m married to a handsome fellow creative (of the wordsmithing and storytelling variety) and we love our homebody life together. I’m a photographer because I think people are fascinating. Because memories are fleeting. Because we all need some beauty around us to help us remember how incredibly blessed we are to be alive.

If you are looking for a photographer who really cares about the people she works with, takes great pictures and awesome to work with then Lorna is your person! When searching for a proposal photographer I was looking for someone that would be easy to communicate with and Lorna was just that and more! We scheduled a meet over Zoom, so she could get to know me and see if there was any questions I had for the day of the proposal. I enjoyed this as it helped me get to know more about the person who would be working with me on such an important moment. The day of the proposal she kept in contact with me up until we arrived at the location which I appreciated. Lorna even helped calm my nerves assuring me the location was correct as she arrived early to prepare (I never been and was afraid we might be at the wrong building) We absolutely loved the images when we received them! I appreciated she kept me updated on when we would be receiving the images and the pictures were awesome. We loved how she was able to capture our special moment and were so happy to see how great the pictures turned out. I would definitely recommend Lorna for anyone who is looking for a photographer. She was very nice, great communicator, and you can tell she truly cares and was happy for us. Thank you so much Lorna for helping us with our special moment.

Video exists in my life as an extension of everything I love about photography. Something drew me to it, and with the ever expanding video modes of my photo cameras, practice became commonplace. Being able to tell storying audibly as well as visually adds a level of depth that is hard to reach within photography. You can feel the story take you through a place in time. Moment capturing in all its beauty.

I'm a Boston based weddings & elopement photojournalist serving New England & beyond. My style is authentic, nostalgic, and a calculated blend of soft and romantic + moody and edgy. I think minimalism is lazy and I want you to look at my work and feel something. My goal is to make you feel so present that you forget I have a camera in my hand while I’m photographing you. I believe it’s my job to remind you of how beautiful and fleeting life is. My hope is that after our session is over, my work turns into some of your most cherished memories decorating your home and your hearts.

My fiance and I had a great experience working with Caroline for our engagement photo mini session! I was amazed at how many moments she was able to capture in a short 20 minute session. The edited photos are beautiful- the romantic style is just perfect. We almost didn't do engagement photos, but I'm so glad that we had Caroline capture this exciting time. Plus her easygoing personality meant we had fun doing it!

On my wedding day, she worked magic - my daughter had suffered an injury at cheer practice and had a bad black eye, but Danille covered it flawlessly and she looked beautiful. Danille was able to accommodate my diverse wedding party, from my youngest who wanted light, natural makeup to enhance her glowing skin to my oldest who wanted a full glam look, and my mother who has mature skin. The makeup lasted perfectly all day and photographed beautifully. Danille is extremely talented and I would highly recommend Dee Marie Artistry for your special event!

I’m a professional DJ and have been providing production services to the Boston and New England area since 2003. I’m dedicated to working with my clients (and hopefully you’re considering becoming one) to provide music that reflects your character during the event. Being a DJ isn’t just about having the largest collection of music possible. It’s about knowing the right time for the right song, about the transitions from one beat to the next, being a DJ is about knowing the people you are with and feeling the energy in the room.

What can I say about Jay besides "WOW". I had wonderful service from all of my vendors and still, I was blown away by the service given to us by Jay. Instead of just providing us with music on our wedding night, he made sure to build a relationship with us and cater every aspect of his services solely to us. Meeting with him made it feel like you were the only client he was working with and he really made you feel cared for and appreciated. He was wonderful during covid, working with us to move our date seamlessly, and met with us multiple times to create a custom first dance song, complete with private interviews with my husband and me that was a surprise to hear for both of our guests and us as a couple. People told us they teared up at our first dance and that it was the best first dance they had ever seen because of the wonderful work Jay did. He stepped up and performed duties that weren't even required of him, like making sure we stuck to our timeline and got announcements that needed to be made to our guests. Jay really carried to vibe of the party on his own by playing a wonderful mix of music for all age groups at my wedding and kept the dance floor full all night. Besides professionalism and expertise, he's just a good guy and such a joy to work with. I am recommending him to everyone I know getting married!!

We were able to visit the barn multiple times before our big day to ensure everything was just right, and were blown away by the beautiful, rustic, and charming space. On the day of the wedding, Tammy was excellent in making sure everything went seamlessly - we were even able to have a signature cocktail that our guests raved about. Our friends and family loved the two-story layout of the barn, which created a really unique and memorable atmosphere. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue for our special day. Highly recommend the Smith Barn at Brooksby Farm!

Nestled on one of the most breathtaking, picturesque points of the Atlantic Ocean, The Oceanview of Nahant offers three spectacular options to say “I Do”. Featuring the beautiful Beach Stone Terrace; outside overlooking the sparkling waters of the great sea, the romantic and ethereal Tent on the Terrace, available only during those cooler New England months, or the majestic grand Ballroom; intimately inside where picture windows frame your ceremony while waves gently crash in the background. Whatever option you choose, your wedding day will be truly magnificent!

The Oceanview of Nahant was the 2nd and last wedding venue we toured because we immediately fell in love. Photos cannot do the Oceanview justice - this venue is immaculate, swoon-worthy, and a ‘hidden gem’ just outside of Boston! By some miracle, they had a last-minute opening for an evening wedding and we planned our "simplistic, but elegant with a touch of nautical" dream wedding in just under a year. From our tour with Brenda (Owner) to our wedding day, everything was flawless. My husband and I cannot praise the staff enough, but a huge shout-out goes to our point of contact & day of coordinator, Allison (Director of Weddings & Events). She went above and beyond, answering all of our questions, including working with her bartenders to ensure our special signature raspberry sangria was a hit and that everything ran like clockwork on the big day. We also want to thank Lish, our co day-of coordinator, for being so joyful and also making sure our moving our florals from the ceremony to the reception looked perfect. Our guests raved about the food (the lamb passed apps were a hit!) and enjoyed exploring all the different spaces from ballroom to cocktail lounge, terraces & “lawn” games! It's been just over a week since our wedding, and we’re still in awe of our day. If you are considering having your special day at the Oceanview, book it. It's worth every penny.
