“I had been seeing Ashley regularly to help with my skin when I got engaged and started planning my wedding. I said my 17 year old cousin would be doing my makeup because I simply was overwhelmed with decision making. Ashley said absolutely not, immediately freed her schedule for my wedding date and did not stop helping me along the way. Booking Ashley was more than just a day of service, she is an incredible business woman, is very organized, and genuinely cares about all her clients. Ashely’s talent and skill are impeccable and I felt absolutely stunning on my wedding day thanks to her and her wonderful team!”

“We hosted both our rehearsal dinner and our wedding at the Galilee Beach Club, and it was everything we hoped for and more. Honestly, we didn’t even know we wanted a beach club wedding when we started planning—we just knew we wanted Narragansett beach vibes. As soon as we saw this venue, we knew it was the perfect fit. The food was incredible. From the very start, the tasting event gave us such a fun preview, and it only got better on the actual wedding weekend. Our guests are still talking about how delicious everything was! We also decided to book our florals through the venue, and that was such a smart choice—the arrangements were stunning and perfectly matched the vibe we wanted, all without the stress of juggling another vendor. A huge shoutout goes to Emily, who was with us every step of the way. She answered countless questions, kept in touch with multiple email check-ins, and made sure every detail was thought of. On the wedding day itself, she was a total rockstar—calm, attentive, and making sure everything ran seamlessly. Even when a light drizzle came through, she and the team handled it effortlessly and kept the energy high. The rest of the staff was equally amazing. Everyone was so professional, kind, and genuinely fun to be around—it made the whole weekend feel so comfortable and celebratory. And of course, the venue itself is absolutely beautiful. We had about 100 guests, and having our ceremony right on the beach was the perfect mix of relaxed and romantic. The setting made for such a special backdrop, and it felt like the true Narragansett beach wedding we always envisioned (even before we realized we wanted a beach club!). We are beyond grateful we chose the Galilee Beach Club. From planning to the final sendoff, the entire experience was flawless. If you’re dreaming of a wedding with amazing food, incredible staff, and the most gorgeous beach setting, this is the place.”

From the very beginning, it was clear how kind, creative, and deeply passionate she is about photography. Maddie went above and beyond—traveling from Rhode Island to Upstate New York for our wedding, and photographing us beforehand in Rhode Island, where she brought us to stunning, thoughtfully chosen locations. On our wedding day, Maddie captured everything with an artistic, intuitive eye. She noticed and preserved the quiet, meaningful details of our farm venue—those small, fleeting moments we would have missed in the rush of the day. Because of her, we now have timeless images that bring us right back to the feeling of being there. One of our absolute favorite memories (and the photos everyone raves about) is the sunset session in a wide open field while our guest we're eating their dinner. With the soft dreamlike tones—she created pure magic, effortlessly. Maddie just knew what to capture and how to tell our story without needing a word of direction.

For the ceremony and cocktail hour, we provided him with a specific music selection, and even though we never rehearsed together, he nailed it perfectly. During the reception, we gave him a playlist, and he struck the perfect balance between sticking to our choices and reading the crowd to keep everyone dancing. One highlight was when Joey G handed the microphone to people in the crowd, turning our reception into an impromptu karaoke party. It was a blast! He was not only fun and engaging but also very attentive to our needs. He asked how to pronounce each name correctly for the toasts, ensuring everything went smoothly. We requested that he not take song requests, and he respected our wishes completely. The sound quality was stellar, and his equipment setup was flawless. Joey G understood our need for clean music as we had many families with young children attending, yet he still kept the atmosphere lively and fun. The dance floor was packed with all 150 guests! Joey G was also a great help with announcements, coordinating toasts, and working with friends and family to announce the newlyweds and photo groups. His flexibility and attention to detail were impressive. Overall, I highly recommend Joey G to any couple looking for an awesome wedding DJ. He provided a questionnaire that made the whole planning process so easy, and his execution was simply fantastic. Joey G truly made our wedding day unforgettable!”

“I had a terrific experience working with La Bella Rose as a florist for my Block Island wedding. Jamie was very easy to get in touch with, and really helped me narrow down what flowers/colors are best (with my limited knowledge of flowers!). She was extremely accommodating leading up to the wedding, and delivered gorgeous flowers that were perfect. I would highly recommend La Bella Rose and would use them again in a heartbeat!”

Love by the ocean co. delivers a style of photography that is a blend of romantic, timeless, and editorial elements, designed to beautifully capture the raw love and connection that couples share. I focus on telling the unique story of each wedding day, preserving genuine emotions and intimate moments in an elegant and heartfelt way. By creating an atmosphere where couples feel entirely at ease, I allow them to forget the presence of the camera and simply immerse themselves in the love they have for each other.

“We cannot say enough great things about Love by the Ocean co. Nick truly collaborates with you to bring your vision to life and is truly so accommodating. He was always so quick to email or call me back if I had any questions or concerns. Nick made the whole process so easy and comfortable. He did our engagement photos and our wedding photos and we couldn’t be happier with how they came out. His editing style is incredible. It feels natural yet enhanced. His way with light is incredible. We really couldn’t be happier with the experience love by the ocean co provided nor the quality of work we received. If we ever need a photographer again, we will most certainly be calling Love by the Ocean co again!”
