PHOTOGRAPHY

Carlie is so amazing that it honestly makes writing this little bio difficult — HOW am I supposed to encapsulate her passion, artful eye and extreme talent in a few sentences?! Lucky for me, I can just let her photos do the talking. Photography by Carlie is available as an add-on to Dearly Studio weddings, pending her availability.

CUSTOM WEDDING BANDS

Meet Ashley Vick, great granddaughter of a fearless entrepreneur (her business’ namesake) and arbiter of fine taste at Bow Market. Filomena Demarco Jewelry blends beautiful design, durability and practicality in an effortlessly chic way. Ashley’s out here creating heirlooms, people! You can browse through her recent work here, or pre-order a wedding band for your Dearly Studio nuptials!

To know the Rococo team is to sit in awe of their endless creativity, constant kindness and gentle approach to special events big and small. This also just feels like a good place to include that they are stellar Bow Market neighbors — the real “borrow a cup of sugar” kind. Inquire with Rococo directly for custom color combos and reception arrangements, or add a Dearly-picked bouquet when you book your ceremony.

SMALL BATCH MACARONS

Maca’s small batch, hand-piped macarons have been a Bow Market staple since day one and it’s not difficult to see why. Tamy is quite literally an artist! Her macarons make the perfect sweet to end your party or a tasty, beautiful favor for your guests to take home.

CUSTOM WEDDING CAKES

Nine Winters is an exploration of place and culture. An extremely delicious exploration. (I think about their black sesame chocolate chip cookie quite seriously at least once a week.) Owner/Founder Marissa Ferola started baking as a way to share her Korean heritage with her children while maintaining her Massachusetts roots. The results are extraordinary flavor combinations and world class baked goods — including a beautiful naked cake option for your upcoming wedding.

SNACKS + EMPANADAS

If you know Bow Market, you know Buenas. Home of the absolute perfect handheld snack, in the most innovative and fun flavors you’ve ever seen (um hello, crab rangoon). Order in to Dearly for a post-ceremony snack or take ‘em to go for your late night celebrations.

VINTAGE STYLE CAKES

See that cake on the left there? We ate that shortly after this photo was taken and I don’t think we’ve stopped talking about it since. The DECADENCE! The BEAUTY! The DULCE DE LECHE FILLING! Not only are Lena’s cakes a wedding photographer’s dream, they’re baked locally in Somerville, use the highest quality ingredients and serve up to 12 people.

TAROT + ASTROLOGY READINGS

Lauren Trombino-Walleser is a tarot reader, astrologer, Reiki master, writer, and witch in the Boston area. You can find her at Bow Market frequently for her tarot residency at Wild Child, or out in the woods birdwatching. Lauren is proudly queer, neurodivergent, highly sensitive, empathic, and intuitive. In all of her work, Lauren hopes to inspire people to take care of the Earth, themselves, and each other. She’s been kind enough to put together couples tarot, birth chart readings and event packages for your Dearly Studio booking.

CAKES + CUPCAKES
