Because of the size of our wedding (185 guests), we didn't have a ton of options to look into. We loved the vibe of ACV so we went with it, but once we got going with putting it all together we were blown away. Throughout the entire process they were helpful, informative and receptive to what we wanted on the day. And the day of could not have been better, and we received plenty of compliments on the venue and everything around our day!

Awarded Best of Zola
When I first started planning my wedding, I looked at vendors on Zola, but I didn't have a clear idea of what I wanted (besides a specific venue). I ended up looking on Google for local wedding planners who could give me an idea of what has worked well in the past, and that's how I found Whitney. She helped me figure out what would work well for the venue and my budget and gave me suggestions to help refine my idea beyond "flowers" and "mid-budget". (This was really great since my fiancée had no interest in helping--a red flag.) To make a long story short, working with Whitney was great even though my wedding ended up being called off. I'm currently focusing on myself, so who knows if I'll ever need to plan another wedding. But I'd definitely work with Whitney again if I ever do!

We don't care who you are, where you are from, what you did (but extra points if it was cool), as long as you love each other. We are currently located in Richmond, VA and will happily travel to anywhere you may be

Awarded Best of Zola
Allyse and Nick are two of the most stellar people I know, and they have come together to create the perfect business: a husband and wife team capturing moments forever. If anyone knows true love, it's them, and let alone getting the most epic photo, it's also them. Allyse and Nick are professionals who take stunning pictures in any season and setting! They are masters of lighting and finding the perfect moment. I have known them both for many years and have watched them grow in their photo careers and then move into creating their wedding photo business. They have photographed many friends' weddings and friends of friends, never to disappoint! Allyse has always had the gift of capturing the right moment, whether in her work overseas, photojournalism, or later in weddings, and she never ceased to amaze me or anyone I know. Her photos have always been so powerful, and her reputation shows it. Nick's creative and whimsical photos matched her style, and when they met, they grew further together, making them the talent powerhouse they are today. Nick and Allyse are the team to hire if you want your typical and not-so-typical photos. They are fun and witty artists with cameras! They will capture all of the fairy tale moments, the getting ready shots, and the memory photos you will treasure forever, but they will also create the laughs that make the photos you never even thought of happening! Their style and approach of helping you through those beautiful yet stressful hours that lead up to the big moment with humor and charm is also why you will love them! These are the moments where they will get the best photos of you, your family, and then of you and your one and only. They both have the clever eye to capture the moments that later, upon looking at the pictures, you will think, WOW, how did they get that? Allyse and Nick are the team you want to capture your wedding if not for their charm and talent but their ability to quickly make a stressful day flow while capturing the best moments you will cherish forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
DJ Anthony Bryant (aka DJ Ant-Boogie) was absolutely amazing and such an important part of our wedding experience. When planning a wedding, there are a million things to worry about. DJ Ant Boogie is not one of them. He was so nice and so patient and professional with us during the planning, and an absolute joy to work with during the actual wedding. We had such little direction for him and gave the most vague descriptions of our friends and ourselves and the general vibe and he crafted the most perfect wedding playlist I have ever heard. All night people were complimenting us on our amazing song choices (all DJ ant boogie) and the dance floor was alive literally all night. He also did such a wonderful job with all of our special requests and announcements and all the “scripted wedding stuff” that happens during a wedding. Everyone had such an amazing time and he was such an integral part of that. DJ Ant Boogie, thank you so much for such a wonderful experience. We had a perfect night, and we are so grateful.

Joseph was a life-savior during the planning process, keeping me calm and confident that my day would be nothing but perfect. And it was exactly that. On the day of my wedding, Joseph and Rob arrived promptly and delivered the most BEAUTIFUL flowers. I am so glad that I chose to go with real flowers, as opposed to wood or silk flowers. The arrangements looked and smelled amazing. The proposal that we had worked on prior to the day of in no way did the actual flowers justice. They were even more amazing than I could have ever imagined. For the florals, we chose to include the orange flowers in only the bridal bouquet. Also including this same orange flower on only the groom’s boutonnière. This was the perfect way for me and my groom to feel special and different from the rest of our bridal party. Book Riverwood Designs NOW! For all your floral and planning/coordinating needs. I am so thankful that I did and I cannot recommend them enough.

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.

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.

The floral arrangements they created for our ceremony and reception were truly stunning - personal, intimate, and artistically crafted to make everyone feel like we were celebrating in an enchanting garden - I was waiting for a fairy to pop out - so magical and romantic. Their attention to detail and commitment to making our day special shone through in every aspect of their work - our arbor was stunning and they transformed our home and yard into a romantic getaway.

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!
