Symula Media Group was an absolute joy to work with for our engagement session ! From the very beginning Jen was incredibly friendly, timely, and personable in her communication. Her passion, creativity and experience shone through in the beautiful photos she captured of us that day. Jen worked with us through a heatwave in the north end of boston and captured the perfect shots with plenty of poses, location changes, and original ideas that really reflected the personality of my fiancé and I.

PK And The Mighty Seven 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves West Somerville, MA

PK and the Mighty Seven has been celebrating with newly married couples since 2016! We were originally formed as a Jamiroquai tribute band, playing mostly music by the famed UK group along with other songs we enjoyed. Since that time, we've expanded our song list and played many weddings, which we love to do!

Awarded Best of Zola
Let me start by saying that we are not the type to write reviews for anybody - good or bad - but for the sake of future individuals/couples looking to book PK and the Mighty Seven we feel obligated to say that if you are looking for a band to entertain whatever party you are hosting you MUST choose PK and the Mighty Seven. To start, Matt was incredibly communicative and responsive during the initial planning stages, promptly responding to e-mails and joining several Zoom calls leading up to our event. We had a vision for our special day and they accommodated each and every one of our requests. On the day of they arrived early and did the necessary prep work to ensure they were fully situated to provide our guests with the night of a lifetime. They took special care to accommodate our unusual first dance request, song recommendations, and the ambiance we sought to instill. We had a wide array of guests and the overwhelmingly consistent feedback we received was that the band was AMAZING. No exaggeration - the majority of our guests said they were the best band they'd ever experienced. If you are getting married or have a special event in their area you will be doing yourselves an immense disservice not to hire them to make your evening as spectacular as you want it to be.

Julian FAR exceeded our expectations. From the very beginning, they hit the proposal out of the park, perfectly nailing our vision for the big day in a clean and clear format. Julian was super responsive to our emails, which was reassuring living on the west coast and traveling to RI for the wedding. The price was super reasonable, and Julian lined up a rental for the floral stands we needed for the ceremony, which was so helpful not being local. And on the big day. Holy smokes, my bridal bouquet was everything I dreamed of and more!! Our wedding day was super hot, and Julian did everything in their power to keep the flowers looking fresh, even tweaking the bouquet and boutonnière as the day went on to remove some of the pieces that wilted. The ceremony flowers ended up a little wilted, but that was out of Julian’s control. If you’re looking for a florist, look no further. Julian was made for this job!

Hey there! I’m Chris, and I’m stoked to be part of your wedding journey. My goal is to help make your day everything you’ve dreamed of. I'll even bring some dog treats. You can count on me to keep things stress-free—no “photographer attitude” here. If the timeline gets off track, I’ll help get it back on schedule so you can enjoy your meal. Based in Boston, I love traveling for weddings, especially intimate gatherings of 100-150 guests. I’m a huge fan of venues like barns, ski resorts, and castles. Capturing vibrant, cinematic images is my passion, and I focus on true-to-life editing—no overexposed skies or unnatural skin tones!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot express enough how grateful we are to have found Chris to capture our special day. However, it goes beyond just that singular day. We had first met with Chris in person for a meet and greet, which I would have never thought to play such an integral role in the process. He demonstrated so much passion for the trade and was already so invested in making sure he was exactly the photographer we were looking for so we could truly get the most out of our day. He also took the time to visit the venue after our meeting to get an idea of what he'd be working with. Chris went above and beyond, every step of the way. He even made it a point to come during the rehearsal as well to be even further prepared. Everything flowed organically with his direction which took away so much stress from the day. Professionalism aside, Chris is just a good dude all around. We're so happy to come away from this experience with not only an amazing portfolio of memories, but a passionate and charismatic friend.

Joe & Kaylyn work together seamlessly ro provide amazing work! I've had the pleasure of working with them in two ways - both as a customer (where they got countless true smiles from my daughter), and as a baker for the amazing events Kaylyn has coordinated for her kids. She has fresh, new ideas and pays attention to the small details (no hairs out of place in photos, etc!) Can't wait to continue to work with them for future family photos.

If you are looking for a photographer for any special occasion, please look no further than Cinthia! We used Cinthia’s services for our wedding in July, we had over 100 people, so she also brought along another photographer who split up some of the tasks. Both were phenomenal. My husband and I are not great at getting photos done or feeling confident but you would have no idea looking at our photos. She gave so many tips, paid attention to all small detail items, was open to any ideas I had, answered all of my questions, and honestly made me feel as if I had another bridesmaid by my side. Not to mention, her photos are absolutely gorgeous and timeless. The way she uses lighting and grabs both formal and more natural shots is incredible. Also she is a blast on the dance floor! Cinthia will be our first call for all future photos! Thank you, thank you, Cinthia. You surpassed our expectations and we are forever grateful.

When it came to curating the perfect dining experience for our wedding, Chef Munah and her team exceeded every expectation and then some. From the very beginning, Chef Munah made us feel seen, heard, and deeply cared for. She worked closely with my husband and me to craft a menu that celebrated the richness of our cultures, blending flavors and traditions into a meal that was not just food but an experience—one that embodied the warmth, connection, and joy we wanted our wedding day to reflect. Her attention to detail was impeccable. From planning to execution, her professionalism, creativity, and passion were evident every step of the way. On the day of our wedding, her team was nothing short of extraordinary. The servers were attentive, kind, and gracious, always ensuring that every guest was taken care of. Their punctuality, preparation, and seamless coordination made everything feel effortless, allowing us to simply enjoy the day. Chef Munah herself was truly a godsend. Even on the wedding day, she made herself available to support us, going above and beyond to make sure every element of the dining experience was flawless. Her talent and care shone through in every bite. My family and friends are still raving about how it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had—a sentiment echoed over and over again in the days and weeks since. The love and intention she poured into her dishes made every guest feel like part of a beautiful, shared story. Choosing Chef Munah was also meaningful to us as we were thrilled to support a woman-owned business. She embodies grace, resilience, and immense talent, and it was an honor to have her as such an integral part of our day. If you're looking for someone who will not only serve food but also bring heart, artistry, and community to your table, look no further than Chef Munah. She is a gift, and her work is truly unmatched. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Chef Munah, for making our wedding day so special and memorable. You and your team are simply amazing!

Jenn is the best!! I love her style and she is the best communicator. She really cares about her clients. Almost a year and a half after our wedding, I finally got around to printing our wedding pictures and realized I saved all the pictures I loved in web sized format. The pictures weren’t a good resolution for printing and Jenn reopened our site so that I could download the pictures I wanted. She’s truly the best.

Hi there! I'm Nia, a wedding and elopement photographer based in Boston, MA but obsessed with traveling. I love the days when I stumble upon a new landscape, learn something new from a stranger or aimlessly drive until I end up somewhere decent. This is why I love storytelling. My favorite stories to tell are by far the love shared between two people. Storytelling and making a moment last is what drew me to photography. Documenting your day in an honest, soulful way that shows who you are is what I strive for.

Awarded Best of Zola
Nia has a natural eye for capturing the most beautiful wedding photos I've ever seen (coming from someone who grew up in a family of photographers). From the first meeting to receiving our wedding photos, she was so communicative and trusted our vision, and she used her amazing ability to capture the best moments of the day. Nia is also such a fun and genuine human! We loved spending time with her through our meetings up until the big day and our engagement pictures and just made everything perfect. When we received the final album, we couldn't find one picture we didn't love, and loved how she was able to capture little details that even we missed! She's a true visionary and has an eye for photography that is truly a born skill. Nia we loved having you be apart of our wedding day and cannot wait to see you grow even more and the other beautiful weddings you photograph!

Awarded Best of Zola
Jeri's genuine talent is obvious (just look at all her beautiful photos!) but it's her creativity, her industry knowledge, and her calming demeanor that make her even more spectacular! In fact, here are two examples where those traits positively impacted my wedding day... 1. My husband and I chose a very unique venue for our wedding reception (and old church in Portland, Maine). In talking to Jeri about the design for our wedding she came up with an incredible idea... instead of clear glass containers for our centerpieces she suggested we use colored glass containers to play off of the stained-glass windows within the church. Not only did Jeri come up with this brilliant idea but she found the PERFECT deep blue containers that matched the overall color scheme for the wedding. The containers looked stunning with all of Jeri flowers and were a detail we received MANY compliments on! 2. The second example that I am going to share actually comes from my husband. While recapping the day he said something to me that I thought was pretty great. He said that while Jeri was assisting him and his groomsmen with their boutonnieres that she reminded him to stay in the moment because the day was going to fly by. He said that Jeri's words were just what he needed to hear and he shared how thankful he was for her reminder because it really helped him appreciate each part of the day. In conclusion, I knew the moment I got engaged that I would ask Jeri to do my flowers and it was easily one of the best decisions that I made! So, it's easy to say that I would highly recommend Jeri Solomon Floral for your big day!

Photography for the magically breathtaking, to the real and raw, and everything in between. Hey there! I'm Danielle, but you can call me Dee! I'm the woman behind the lens and your wedding day guru! I'm your wedding day storyteller and I'm dedicated to capturing all the moments from your day in the most authentic, emotionally creative way.

Danielle is the best photographer we could have asked for! We had courthouse wedding on the hottest day of the year and took photos outside/around the city and she was so motivated and took her time by suggesting other locations and ideas despite the very hot and humid weather. The photos turned out so much better than I could have imaged and we are so grateful she was our photographer - I honestly don’t think anyone else could have captured the moments like she did and we will treasure the pictures forever! Danielle also did our newborn photos and again, they turned out amazing. She was so patient and gentle with our crabby little guy, which was so appreciated. You will not regret going with Danielle for any event. She is so kind, patient, and excels at communicating which ultimately gets you better photos than you could imagine! We 100% will be coming back to her for any photography needs in the future.

Amy is a gem to work with! She is flexible with our unusual wedding schedule and was communicative the entire time. One of the things that really made us decide on picking Amy was her way of editing photos. She keeps the photos true to color but more enhanced and higher quality. It still looks very bridal and clean but without the weird tinted filter that many other photographers use. Highly recommend Amy and her team for all types of photography needs!!

For over 30 years, DJ Denise LaCarubba | Vibeology IA has aligned with clients to create and present soundtracks for weddings, fashion shows, fundraisers, corporate, international and private events.

Awarded Best of Zola
Denise is amazing! During our DJ search for our wedding, my (now) husband and I came across Denise very early in our search. And I’m so happy that we did! Faced with the fact that we needed to find someone who would get (and keep) both of our dance-happy families on the dance floor, it was daunting to find the perfect fit for us and for the celebration to follow. We had to rely heavily on reviews to narrow down our search…but that only gets you so far when you want to feel the energy. In a leap of faith, we reached out to Denise. After that first meeting, we never looked back! It was easy to just spend time talking to Denise. She was our hype-lady from day one, working with our schedules from planning to the meticulous execution of the wedding day. She was patient with our indecisiveness on which instrumental version of our procession song we wanted (weeks of samples, back and forth, and for us to ultimately pick the first version she shared). As a planner, I very much appreciated Denise’s attention to detail. She combed through every detail with us well beforehand, so that she didn’t have any questions the day of the wedding. I cannot recommend this Lady DJ enough! She helped make our day so special and effortlessly kept people on the dance floor until the lights came on.

Brett is hands down the best wedding photographer we could have ever asked for. He was highly recommended to us by a family member, and honestly, hiring him was the best advice we took throughout the entire wedding planning process. From the start, working with Brett was like working with a close friend. He got to know us and made us feel extremely comfortable in front of the camera. As a result, he was able to capture photos that were meaningful to us. For instance, as bird lovers, we were excited to encounter baby geese while taking our engagement photos, and Brett incorporated them into the shoot for us. The photos he took on our wedding day truly captured the special moments and emotions of that day, and they are absolutely gorgeous without being overly edited. He just has an amazing talent for finding the best light and backdrops for both posed and candid photos. Observing his process was a lot of fun. We will definitely hire Brett again in the future and we would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

The Center for Arts at the Armory was an exceptional choice for our wedding venue. From the very beginning, their communication was efficient, thoughtful, and thorough. The staff were incredibly supportive throughout the entire day, helping me with any last-minute needs and even providing extra materials and a unique custom cocktail. The venue itself is incredibly flexible and unique, allowing us to tailor the space perfectly to our vision - from the food we served to the mixed traditional and cultural elements of our ceremony. Importantly, the Armory is also a cost-effective option that doesn't try to capitalize on inflated wedding prices. As a 501(c)3 non-profit, they do great work for the Somerville community as well.

For as long as I can remember, I've loved being in the kitchen, and have been told that I remind people of my grandma, Mazie, who passed from cancer when my dad was young. While I've spent more hours than most in the kitchen (often at odd hours), my career led me in another direction. However, I've repeatedly been told "you should open a bakery!" Through years of education, baking has been my therapy, and brought happiness to my colleagues' stomaches as well. After being diagnosed with cancer at a young age myself, I've realized the importance of pursuing your passions, and with the support of my family, I pursued baking as a second job.
