Awarded Best of Zola
We wanted to highlight local vendors with an emphasis on POC, women, and queer people - and we could not be happier with Julissa. Her cheerful demeanor and ability to guide us without making us feel pressure made the process of planning a large winter wedding extremely easy. She was thorough, transparent, and a joy to work with! She checked in with us multiple times during the day to make sure our vision was captured. She delivered both the sneak peak and full gallery within a great timeframe, and everything was gorgeous!! I cannot recommend Julissa highly enough, thank you so much!

Society 11:11 and Manpreet were so easy to work with, and made sure I was comfortable and beautiful on my wedding day! I have curly hair, and was very concerned about finding a stylist who was confident working with texture. From my first meeting with the Society 11:11 team, I was at ease. Manpreet worked with me during my trial to make sure I had exactly the look that I wanted, and that I felt comfortable giving feedback about any changes I wanted to make. On my wedding day, she worked with me, as well as my sister, mom, and mother-in-law. She made us all feel great, while still looking like ourselves. I loved her ability to elevate our features in both makeup and hair styling, especially as a group of people who do not wear a lot of makeup day-to-day. I loved working with Manpreet and would recommend her and the whole team at Society 11:11! Photo courtesy of https://vnessphotography.com/

Choosing to work with French Honey Hospitality was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Not only was Maegan passionate, talented, and professional, but she was easy to communicate with, hard-working, and kind. From the first phone call to “last call”, Maegan listened to what we wanted and made our vision come to life. During the planning process, Maegan was knowledgeable, helpful, and fun. She helped us pick our two signature cocktails, designed our personal menu, and gave us a detailed shopping list. On our wedding day, Maegan and Stewart showed up early to set-up the bar – and they went above and beyond by lending a helping hand to any vendor who needed it. During our cocktail hour and reception, the duo kept our drinks full and the bar lines short. We still have guests talking about how delicious our signature cocktails were, how friendly Maegan and Stewart were, and how much fun they had at our wedding.

Katie and her team were amazing to work with! We had rented out a large vacation house as our venue, so we had to bring in everything ourselves as far as setting up tables/chairs, linens, decor, etc. Not only did Katie deliver on this and make sure everything I imagined in my head came to life, but her calming presence always made me feel like no matter what, everything was going to be ok and get done.

Let’s just talk about it. You spend months (sometimes years) planning your wedding - the colors, the outfits, the chargers, every little detail. But the place people gather, meet, and spend the most time? The bar. And somehow that’s the part people overlook. A great bartender sets the tone for the whole night. At Cheers, we actually care. We take time to get to know you, show up ready to celebrate with your people, and make sure the bar adds to the energy of the night - not takes away from it. Your wedding deserves that. Love y’all.

Awarded Best of Zola
I first heard about Completely Captured when my husband (then fiancé) booked Elizabeth for our engagement session. We loved the photos so much that we knew we had to book her again for our elopement. Elizabeth’s communication and planning were exceptional. She was incredibly flexible with dates, understanding our need to finalize locations closer to the ceremony. We scheduled a phone call to discuss our vision, and she beautifully captured the inspiration photos I shared. She also helped plan the photography timeline and was proactive with poses and lighting suggestions, which I greatly appreciated. On our elopement day, Elizabeth was professional, friendly, and prepared with all the necessary equipment. She made us and our family, including our french bulldog, feel completely comfortable and even stayed longer to ensure we got all the shots we wanted. The final gallery exceeded all expectations. She even shared sneak peeks the same day, which was such a thoughtful touch. Our family loved the photos so much that we made albums for them, and everyone kept commenting on her incredible work. What stood out most was how personable Elizabeth was—she felt like more than a photographer; she became a friend. I wholeheartedly recommend her for any wedding or elopement. She’s a talented professional and a joy to work with!

Dover Hall made all of my wedding dreams come true. I really wanted a Lake Como, European estate vibe for our wedding. I never thought it would be possible, especially in the Richmond area but Dover proved us wrong. Dover Hall was the first and ONLY venue we toured after getting engaged. We have received endless compliments on not only our venue choice, but the staff and ESPECIALLY the food. Emily, Wendy, and Chef Leah worked with us during the whole planning process to ensure we were satisfied with everything. The entire staff is extremely accommodating, kind, patient, and helpful with everything. They are so knowledgeable and really walk you through the entire process. I have never been to an American style wedding before so I had no idea what I was doing but they were extremely understanding and held my hand throughout the last almost 2 years. We also really wanted to incorporate Thai and Korean dishes with our reception and Chef Leah was able to collaborate with us to create delicious options for our guests. We wish we could go back everyday and relive it all over again, Dover Hall is truly one of a kind and such a beautiful place-- we are so happy with our choice.

Armando with DeMarchi Productions is an absolute dream to work with! Armando is very good at communicating and I'm really OCD about this - so that's a huge compliment;) Armando always creates magic, working with him truly is seamless and a dream. He's so kind and truly brings a calming presence to a somewhat chaotic day. Armando is always ready to jump in and help with the details, he's also always aware of the light and best places for GORGEOUS footage. I work with a lot of videographers, but there are very few that I highly recommend that will give you an exceptional experience - Armando is one of them. He has the sweetest (& biggest) heart and truly loves what he does - which is evident in his work and interaction with couples. When it comes to choosing your dream team, you'd be crazy not to have him as part of it!

I recently had the pleasure of coordinating a wedding at Lake Fungs Barn in Prince George, VA, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience! The venue perfectly combines rustic elegance with natural beauty, creating a dream-like setting for couples who want a barn-style wedding with a stunning lakeside view. The moment you drive up to the property, you are greeted by beautiful views of the serence lake, which sets the stage for a romantic celebration. The barn itself is a masterpiece - charming yet modern, with high ceilings, plenty of windows and space for both the ceremony and the reception, The outdoor ceremony area, right by the lake, made for a picturesque backdrop that looked incredible in photos. The staf at Lake Fungs Barn were professional and attentive, ensuring every detail of the wedding ran smoothly. They went above and beyond to create a seamless experience for the wedding party and their guests, and you could tell they took great pride in maintaining the property to the highest standards. What really sets this venue apart is the combination of its tranquil lakeside setting and warm, rustic vibe of the barn, It's a venue that perfectly balances the peacefulness of nature with the sophistication of a well-designed event space. Whether you're planning a large celebration or an imtimate gathering, Lake Fungs Barn has everything you need for a magical wedding day.

I'm a dreamer, a maker, a memory curator with a love for the written word. I have a master's in laughter, and am a world renown mess maker. I’m a wannabe world changer, a devoted pray-er, and an avid forgiver. I’m a barefoot kitchen dancer, a hammock reader and sun seeker, an accident-prone adventurer... and hopefully, when I look back, a professional life-rider and full-fledged compassion giver.

We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about our florist, Jessica Samsing of Fleurish and Bloom. From the very beginning, we loved that we were able to meet her and really get to know her before booking. It never felt like a transaction for a service, and more like collaborating with a friend to bring a dream vision to life. I can be pretty particular when it comes to details, so finding someone we trusted completely to execute our vision was really important to us. She absolutely nailed it. She listened carefully, offered thoughtful guidance, and ultimately brought our dream to life in the most beautiful way. Not only was everything stunning, but she and her team were also incredibly respectful of our budget, which we appreciated so much. Throughout the process she was approachable, kind, and genuinely invested in making our wedding day special. You can truly feel how much she cares about her couples. If you’re looking for a florist who is talented, thoughtful, and a joy to work with, we cannot recommend her enough. She made the entire experience feel personal and meaningful, and we are so grateful for the beauty she created for our day.

Stephanie was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. On our wedding day, she was calm, friendly, and on top of it. She and her second photographer struck the perfect balance of being professional and efficient while also feeling like casual friends, which made the entire experience feel natural and fun. My husband and I felt totally comfortable with her guidance and direction during photos, and she made the whole process so easy, even with unpredictable weather and changing light. She adapted quickly and found the perfect locations around our venue to make sure we got the best possible shots. We were so excited to receive sneak peeks shortly after the wedding, and the photos were absolutely stunning. The quality was flawless and just captured the beauty of our day. She also did our engagement session, and those remain some of our favorite photos ever (other than the wedding, of course). If you’re getting married in Virginia, I cannot recommend Stephanie Jenkins and her team enough. She captured our day perfectly, and we’re so grateful to have these memories to look back on forever.
