Meet MadLove: Where Your Love Story Becomes Our Mission
Melinda Long
DJ / Videographer
Born and raised in Lowell, MA, I’m the youngest of three sisters with a deep love for '90s and 2000s music. My journey as a DJ and MC led me to videography, where I found my true calling in storytelling through sound and visuals. Through it all, love remains my driving force, especially my partner, Mads, whose unwavering support has shaped me into who I am today. Together, we create experiences rooted in love and connection.
Madelene Ba
Photographer / Videographer / Coordinator
As a middle child from Northern MA, my journey has been shaped by struggles with mental health and the loss of my sister. Photography became my refuge, allowing me to capture raw emotions and preserve fleeting moments. Through MadLove, my partner and I create timeless memories, capturing moments that evoke deep emotions, from family bonds to the first look between newlyweds. I’m not just a photographer; I’m a creator of time capsules, preserving life's most irreplaceable moments.
This Isn’t Just a Wedding—It’s Your Love Story in Motion
Your wedding day isn’t just about timelines and to-do lists—it’s about the feels. The goosebumps during your vows. The way your friends lose it when that song drops. The stolen glances, the deep belly laughs, the “this is really happening” moments.
At MadLove, we’re not just here to show up—we’re here to show you off. As a woman-owned, Asian-owned, and queer-owned team, we celebrate love in all its forms and center our work around authenticity, joy, and deep connection.
Whether you’re getting married in Boston, Rhode Island, Maine, or somewhere in between, we bring the music, the visuals, and the energy to turn your vision into a full-on vibe. You deserve a vendor team that sees you, hears you, and hypes you up every step of the way.

Real Weddings, Real Stories: Hear From Our MadLove Couples
“Run, don't walk to MadLove for your wedding DJ, sound, and Emcee services!!! We have nothing but great things to say about them. From the very beginning, they were top-notch. They were prompt and super friendly when we first reached out to them, and continued to be until the end. They were professional and organized; they left no detail overlooked or question unanswered, and scheduled several virtual meetings during the planning period so we were all on the same page.”
— Jess + Michelle (Married on 06.01.24)
“We would give MadLove 10 stars out of 5!!! We found them by looking for an Asian woman DJ team that would recognize the K-Pop hits we love, and they definitely met that bar. In terms of professionalism, DJ Mel kept our dance floor popping the whole night and expertly mixed guest song requests as well as our prepared wedding playlist. They also provided microphones, stands & music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, cake cutting, toasts, and basically every other thing we needed all night!”

“Couldn't have pictured our night without MadLove! We were luckily enough to have MadLove as the photographer and DJ for our wedding reception! We knew we would be in great hands with how much professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail they showed in our first meeting! […] There were slight changes to the timeline on the day of the event, but Maddy and Mel adapted quickly and seamlessly. If you’re looking for a team to elevate your celebration, you NEED MadLove! They are great at their jobs and they are great people!”

“Where do I start with Melinda and Madelene...total 10/10 all around for our wedding! Immediately during our consultation video call we knew we just had to book them! Pre-wedding: they were super helpful with planning, explaining their service offerings, guiding us through the entire process, helping us organize the wedding timeline, advice on music, and really listening to our vision and making it come to life. During the wedding: Melinda was the best DJ ever and Madelene made sure everything ran smoothly! We got SO many compliments on the flow, how Melinda made all the announcements, the song choices, song transitions, and also the lighting! It totally transformed the venue! I will 1000% be highly recommending MadLove to everyone I know moving forward!”
