    I would suggest portrait new england....they will customize a package that works for you and your budget.  they are willing to travel and you get 2 photographers.

    For photography, I highly recommend Brian Sullivan or John Loconte. Both are really affordable and do amazing work. We haven't chosen a dj yet but I've heard great things about Moondance Productions and their pricing is also quite reasonable. http://www.moondancedj.com/about.html

    Victor from Victor Events is amazing.  He did my wedding at the Biltmore last July and was worth every penny.  He kept everyone dancing the whole night and people are still raving about him.  He is pricier than most other local DJs but I promise you will not be disappointed.  For photography, it may help if you provide us with a budget....the price can vary greatly.  I used Scott Zuehlke and he was also phenomenal but expensive.

    Brad Ayres is a great photographer, he is very reasonably priced and he and a second photographer will stay with you the whole day and the wedding book is amazing. We were going to use him but another photographer that works with my FI offered to do everything for free as our wedding gift. As for a DJ look into Elevate Entertainment, they are a smaller company with a great MC and awesome music. They will definitely keep the party going all night with all different types of music. Message me if you want direct contact info for either one.

    I am using Captivation Photography in Tiverton, RI.  Lori is great to work with and very affordable.  Totally willing to work with our budget and also does videography.  She did our E-photos and we loved them.

    I'm using Sabrina Scolari for photography...she's def. one of the top 5 best wedding photographers in RI.  She is also so sweet and genuine.  The first time I talked with her, I knew she was the one for me.  I'm not sure about about a DJ though, I know more about bands.  I think a band might fit the biltmore a bit better, personally.  Is there a reason why you prefer a DJ at the biltmore?

    I'm using Keri-Rae Photography, loved her work. For DJ we are using Lou Paz because Fiancee's Brother recommended him.

    I am using Valentino Photography for my upcoming July wedding and I agree with PP I like them a lot and fairly reasonable in price as well with really good quality pictures.

    Also, for the DJ I am using Victor Events. Like also, PP mentioned, he is on the pricer side but he is awesome at what he does and he will keep your guests dancing till the end. I have seen him first hand at what he does and I couldn't say more positive things about him.

    Goodluck.

    Our second shooter Monika Rose is definitely budget friendly. Her style of shooting is in line with my photographers, Visual Obsession. Modern, Creative and Editorial style  of photography. She is also very sweet too! Her pricing is dependent on what you want on your big day but for 200 guests, she offers 2 photographers for 6 hrs of coverage for $1500 with rights to high resolution edited photos.

    I'm using the perfect package....DJ Valentina and James Anthony Photography! Check them out they are great...they are actually a husband and wife which works out perfect. they are young, in style and very modern which worked out for me! They are a great couple and are both really good at what they do. They will even work with you on pricing if you book both of their services since they are apart of the same wedding group (which also includes videography and limos too). Let them know I referred you, I'm sure they will help you out! Check them out online too!
