Alex and Suzanne Photography were the perfect photographers for our elopement.

Their passion and engagement was priceless, and the quality of their work was absolutely stunning. Not only did they take our beautiful elopement photos, but they met with us beforehand and helped us build out a smooth schedule, which was invaluable since we didn't have a wedding planner. The entire day ran seamlessly, from our 6am getting ready to the final farewell at the airport at 3pm. We cannot recommend Alex and Suzanne enough - you will not regret working with this talented and supportive team!

This stately Georgian features an upper brick promenade surrounded by a limestone balustrade and opens to a double curved staircase to the lower terrace.

Marble floors, ornamental cornices, plaster friezes, 18-foot columns with gilded Corinthian capitals, and custom crystal chandeliers please the eye from the onset.

  • Not for you if you are drawn to more unconventional venues
We hosted a black-tie winter wedding (late February) with the Estate at River Run (ERR) and were blown away by the event. One of the biggest draws for us with ERR was the venue’s ability to accommodate both indoor and outdoor ceremonies and receptions with gorgeous locations for each. This allowed us to plan for an indoor ceremony but flex to an outdoor ceremony the week of the wedding to take advantage of good weather! Several months after our wedding we still have friends and family telling us how gorgeous the venue was! ERR did a wonderful job communicating during the planning process and ensuring we knew what they needed from us to host a successful event. The staff and security during the event were wonderful, the venue itself was an absolute fairytale for our wedding day. If you are looking for a venue that can host a black-tie event in central VA or the greater Richmond area, please consider ERR!

Awarded Best of Zola
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/

Most importantly, we believe love is love and all are welcome to celebrate with us. Trust the workshop to ensure your dream wedding will take route and flourish in our space!

Awarded Best of Zola
The Workshop was everything I hoped for in a wedding venue — a true blank canvas that allowed me to bring my personal style to life. Kerith was incredibly helpful from the start, clearly outlining what was already available in the space (tables, linens, chairs, hurricanes, and more) and what could be customized. I chose to rent and bring in a few items of my own to complete the look I envisioned, and Kerith was supportive every step of the way — even helping with some of the custom touches herself. What really sets The Workshop apart is its flexibility. Weddings aren’t one-size-fits-all, and having access to a variety of décor options already on-site made it so much easier to create a celebration that felt uniquely ours. Even better — so many of these items were included in the rental, which helped us stay within budget without sacrificing style. Kerith is clearly building something special: a community-centered space where people can celebrate life’s biggest moments without breaking the bank. In a world where weddings can quickly become overwhelming and expensive, it’s refreshing to see a venue that encourages sharing and sustainability. I truly believe more brides should be talking about spaces like this. The Workshop isn’t just a venue; it’s part of a movement to make beautiful events more accessible for everyone.

I have nothing but good things to say about Seema as both a person and a makeup artist. As a woman of color and someone who rarely wears makeup, I was really anxious about booking a makeup artist for my wedding. From our first conversation to the bridal trial and then the wedding day, Seema was responsive, warm, transparent, flexible, and detail-oriented. She is a true artist who made everyone (bridesmaids, my mom, and my mother-in-law) look beautiful while highlighting each person's unique features. Seema has a calming presence and went above and beyond (even helping us to get dressed in our Indian outfits and providing me with a touch-up kit for later). She cares deeply about her clients and takes time to understand your unique skin type and desired look. For example, I tend to sweat a lot and was concerned about my makeup running and/or looking shiny. To my pleasant surprise, my makeup stayed put and looked fresh throughout the night without feeling heavy or cakey. Book with Seema today. I promise that you won't regret it!

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!

My name is Leander, but most people call me LJ. I'm a wedding and family photographer based in Richmond, Virginia, and I believe that photographs aren't decoration. Your photographs are documentation of a life that's been fully lived. Loving people like Christ, paying attention to what matters to them, and showing up with intention is how I attempt to move through the world.

When we first booked Living Out Loud Productions for our wedding, we knew we were making the right choice, and four years later, that decision keeps paying off. LJ's communication was straightforward and supportive from day one, making the entire planning process feel easy and stress-free. On our wedding day, he brought such a positive energy to everything he did, capturing moments that felt genuine and full of joy. His photos turned out exactly how we hoped—sharp, beautiful, and full of life. We've loved working with him so much that we've hired him for every photoshoot since, and he's become a good friend along the way. If you want a photographer who is reliable, talented, and genuinely cares about your day, LJ is your person.

Listen, if you're on the fence, don't be. Call Pinnacle Affairs. We were going to plan everything ourselves and now it's the biggest running joke we almost didn't hire Carice and her A team. From the moment we first met Carice from Pinnacle Affairs, we knew we were in good hands. Her communication style is calm, efficient, and kind, putting us at ease throughout the entire wedding planning process. The quality of her work and the value she provided was truly outstanding - she was thoughtful, organized, and incredibly creative in helping us curate the perfect wedding weekend to kickstart this next chapter of our lives. Carice brought a wonderful sense of calm and humor to every interaction, making us feel instantly comfortable. There was no scenario she hadn't seen before or wasn't able to find a perfect and creative solution for, whether it was solving transportation snafus or tweaking our timeline. We are so grateful to Carice and the entire Pinnacle Affairs team for helping make our wedding day truly special and unforgettable. I cannot imagine planning any other event without her, I mean who else is going to keep my makeup intact?!

Hali was AMAZING as our day-of coordinator for our outdoor wedding at Maymont. We woke up the morning of our wedding to rain in the forecast and naturally freaked out, but Hali kept us grounded and had everything under control! She worked day-of with our vendors to move our ceremony into our reception venue, and all we had to do was inform our guests of the new plan. I cannot imagine how much work it was in such a short time period. Once we got to the venue, the rest of our wedding day was shockingly relaxing - my husband and I spent the whole wedding being in the moment together. Hali and Alyssa handled everything - and also set up the reception area beautifully! She also handled most conversations with vendors in the months leading up to our wedding. My husband and I both have very busy jobs, and I truly don't know what we would have done if we didn't have her in the planning. I really think that if we hadn't hired Hali, we would have been overcome with stress on our big day, and I'm so glad we were able to truly enjoy it with her help. She is always on top of the details, communicative, and also very gentle and kind. Did I mention she was in her third trimester when we got married?? She's a superwoman, and one in a million. So happy we chose Forevermore weddings for our big day :)

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.

I stumbled across Cheers on Instagram while planning our wedding, and it ended up being one of the best decisions we made. From our very first conversation with them, we knew we were in good hands. They were communicative, easy to work with, and genuinely excited to be part of our day, which made the whole planning process feel easy instead of stressful. We booked their bartending service with two batched cocktails. Then the more we saw the more we wanted to add on. We were so excited they were able to have the drink we had on our first date as one of our batched cocktails. Little touches like that made the day feel so personal. The champagne tower was stunning! It created such a fun and memorable moment that people are still talking about. Honesty I could go on and on! What really sets Cheers apart is the team themselves. They were warm, personable, and just plain fun to have around. That energy carried through our entire reception. Our guests had a blast from cocktail hour all the way to the last dance, and so much of that was thanks to Cheers. We honestly can't recommend them enough. If you want a bar service that brings incredible drinks and real heart to your wedding day, book Cheers!

A Little Wedding Garden was an excellent choice for our wedding venue. The communication with the owners was superb - they were incredibly responsive, friendly, and helpful throughout the entire planning process. The quality of their work and the value they provided was excellent as well. The garden setting was absolutely beautiful, and the owners went above and beyond to ensure our special day was perfect.

We love the look and quality of their photos and the affordable price of the photo / video package. They were very quick with responding which is super helpful when you’re emailing a million people at a time during wedding planning and planning and prep with the Inman’s was easy and efficient. Our photos are BEAUTIFUL! They capture the charm of the venue, the joy from all our family and friends, and the love between my husband and I. We also received our photos SO quickly and got to browse through them on our honeymoon which was amazing. The Inmans were knowledgeable, professional, and created a very enjoyable experience. They’re young and hip and really understand what couples want from their wedding photos & videos these days. Wedding day was perfect! Not to mention Ashley was pregnant and still didn’t miss a beat all day!!

Autumn's Catering & Cafe was a pleasure to work with for our wedding catering. The communication throughout the planning process was great - Claudine always responded promptly to questions and if she wasn't available, she let us know when she could talk in more detail. The food quality and presentation exceeded our expectations. Everything we tasted at the tastings was delicious and innovative. They really customized options to our preferences too. On the wedding day, the staff was friendly, attentive to all guests, and made sure everything flowed smoothly without needing any additional communication from me. The dessert display was gorgeous. I appreciated that they helped out in many small ways behind the scenes as well. Overall, Autumn's delivered exceptionally on the food, service and attention to detail that made our wedding day special and stress-free when it came to the catering.

Please reach out through my website! I am inactive on zola. My photos are emotion-centered and in the moment. I shoot a combination of 35mm film, medium format film, polaroids, and digital photography. My goal is to notice the right moments and turn them into timeless, artistic, photos made with love - not photos that look like everyone else's. :)

Jesslyn is immensely talented. Our photos are so beautiful and are indicative of the level of skill she possesses. Working with her was a pleasure, she is communicative, and made us feel at ease throughout the planning process. Not to mention she was such a lovely presence at our wedding, our family still talks glowingly about her two months later. Overall we cannot praise Jesslyn enough, we would confidently recommend her services to anyone looking for a photographer.

My husband and I were married at The Boathouse at Sunday Park this summer and we could not have been happier with our venue choice. Amanda was so enthusiastic and timely in responding to all of our questions during the planning process, and her extensive knowledge of weddings ensured that no detail was overlooked. On the big day itself, the staff went above and beyond decorating the venue with the items we had dropped off the day before, allowing us to relax and enjoy our special moment. The Boathouse at Sunday park, which overlooks the lake, was the perfect romantic backdrop for our ceremony and reception. Everything was lovely and ran so smoothly thanks to Amanda's careful orchestration. We are so grateful to her for helping our wedding vision come to life seamlessly. The Boathouse is a gem for couples looking for a venue that offers gorgeous scenery, delicious food, and attentive yet unobtrusive coordination.

I first reached out to Elizabeth because she was a preferred vendor of our venue. Since our first interaction, Elizabeth has been kind and professional. Her work is truly amazing! I have had 4 sessions with her and each time she somehow manages to outdo herself! She gives 110% to each and every client and I have always felt cared for & heard whenever I have an idea for photos. Elizabeth is extremely talented and I feel like I have found a photographer for life. Her passion for her work shows in the breathtaking quality of her work. Hire Elizabeth, you won’t regret it.
