From the very first meeting, we could tell Marty was professional, responsive, and genuinely excited to make our day special. He helped us plan out music for each part of the day, made suggestions, and took all our requests on board. Marty's ability to read a dance floor is second to none. From our grandparents to our college friends, he made sure there was something for everyone. The sound quality was fantastic, the transitions between songs were excellent, and the lighting equipment he provides is outstanding.

Blythe Eland Photography

Chapel Hill, NC
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,100

Hey, I’m Blythe—a wedding photographer with a heart for intimate moments and untamed landscapes. I specialize in capturing the raw, real, and beautifully unposed stories of couples who choose to celebrate their love in meaningful, personal ways—whether it’s a quiet mountaintop elopement or a cozy backyard ceremony with your loved ones. If you’re dreaming of a wedding that feels true to you, I’d be honored to document it in a way that’s timeless, artful, and deeply personal. Let’s chase the light together.

Awarded Best of Zola
One of the best decisions we made during our wedding was to work with Blythe, she was one of the first vendors we hired and came as a recommendation from a friend. When she arrived to my bridal suite, I immediately felt a sense of calm, and trust that she would help capture our day as we had pictured. She truly went above and beyond on our wedding day, she wasn't just our photographer, but my dress bustle expert, veil placer, hairpin carrier, bouquet carrier, dress and veil fluffer, she even grabbed a napkin and took my husband's gum out of his mouth. She communicated on the day of with my other vendors immediately, whenever I saw that something was missing or out of place. Truly our wedding day would have not run as smoothly without her. When I needed her she was right there in seconds, and during other portions of the wedding, I hardly even noticed she was there snapping photos so we truly got to enjoy our day without being constantly pulled for posed photos. All of our family members and friends kept commenting to us how incredible she was without ever even seeing any of the photos. She truly was the biggest gift to have on one of the biggest days of our lives. We only wish we could work with her again and again. From the bottom of our hearts THANK YOU SO MUCH Blythe, we loved working with you and can't wait to work with you again in the future. If you are at all considering working with her please please HIRE HER!

Adrian Etheridge Photography 

5.0

Chapel Hill, NC
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,200

I've been an artist for as long as I can remember. My mom gave me an old film camera sometime around 5th grade thinking offhand that I might be interested in yet another art form and boy was she ever right. From then on, I've always had a camera in my hand, documenting anything and everything. Photography has been not only my chosen form of expression for over half my lifetime, but my way of learning about the world, of getting to know people, and even of getting to know myself.

Awarded Best of Zola
Adrian is amazing! I cannot recommend her enough, especially if you're a couple that is awkward in front of a camera! We hired her for our wedding in Asheville, and she came to us in Raleigh for our engagement session. She made us feel really comfortable and didn't try to make us do any "unnatural" poses; over the engagement session, she found what worked for us, and brought out more of that! She was also very patient with our dog who did not want to cooperate at all, and still managed to get some great action shots of him! The day of our wedding, it poured! She was such a trooper about quickly moving outside when the sun poked out, and back in when the skies opened up. And when everyone hit the dance floor, she got the best personality pics of our loved ones. She was so patient with us, and everything we needed as two individuals who originally did not feel comfortable in front of the camera!

Ardenwood Farm was the perfect venue for my summer bridal shower and I could not have been happier with my experience! The owner, Julia, is kind, communicative, and overall wonderful to work with. We rented the small venue behind the covered riding ring and it more than comfortably fit 25 guests at a competitive price for the Chapel Hill area. The chairs and tables were set up to our specifications and we had full access to their decor closet, including a bar cart, vases, and vintage pieces. We were able to bring our own food and had access to an ice maker and fridge — and most importantly for July, full control of the thermostat! Easy parking for unloading/loading party supplies and for guests. My guests also loved seeing the horses around the property! Highly recommend choosing Ardenwood Farm for your bridal shower, bridesmaid luncheon, or other wedding event!

  • Venue
  • Up to 162 guests
  • Raw space
  • Outdoor & indoor

Once owned by Pulitzer prize winner Paul Green, this completely renovated 1890s farmhouse nestled under towering oaks offers a seamless blend of old and new. Tons of history yet it looks like something Joanna Gaines decorated.

  • Flexible event spaces

Venue considerations

  • Not for you if you're looking for a sleek and contemporary space
  • No in-house catering options
Working with Tony and Beth at Old Lystra Inn was an absolute dream from start to finish. After spending countless hours searching for the perfect venue, my husband and I knew immediately that this was the one the moment we pulled up the driveway. Tony greeted us with a late-evening tour that felt incredibly personal, not at all rushed—and it set the tone for everything that followed. The property itself is breathtaking. The grounds are impeccably maintained and filled with charm, and so much is included in the rental package—tent, dance floor, chairs, tables, and more—which made planning far less stressful. It was a huge relief not having to coordinate all those big logistics separately. Beth and Tony were a constant source of support leading up to the big day. Whether it was a quick stop by to walk the grounds, a late-night email, or one of our many questions (and there were a lot!), they always made time for us. We never felt like “just another couple” in a long wedding season. Instead, they made us feel like our day truly mattered—like we were getting married in a place that had heart and soul, not just beautiful scenery. On the day itself, Tony was everywhere—behind the scenes making things happen and helping everything flow effortlessly. We can’t overstate how much that meant to us. Thanks to his quiet dedication, we were able to be fully present and just enjoy the day. We are endlessly grateful to have had our wedding at Old Lystra Inn. It was the best day of our lives, and Tony and Beth played such a meaningful role in making that possible. We can’t wait for the day we get to return as guests and relive the magic from a different perspective. Highly, highly recommend!

  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style

My passion for capturing a wedding day began three years ago, and I quickly realized how meaningful it is to preserve emotion. Every laugh, every tear, every glance,it all matters and it all deserves to be remembered. I approach wedding films like a storyteller, not just a videographer. I don’t believe in staged emotion or copy-and-paste edits. I believe couples are different—their rhythm, their history, the way they look at each other when no one else is watching. My goal is not just to record your day, but to forge a story that will be cherished forever.

Elijah did an excellent job photographing our wedding. He was organized, professional, and captured beautiful photos without ever being intrusive. We also received our photos very quickly, which we truly appreciated. Everything ran smoothly, and he made the entire process comfortable and stress-free.
