“From the moment we toured The Eldridge Furnace Inn to the last dance on our wedding day, we knew we had found somewhere truly special. Every single expectation we had was not only met—it was exceeded in every possible way. Our incredible coordinator, Naina, was with us from day one, and I truly can't say enough wonderful things about her. She was approachable, endlessly accommodating, organized, and the definition of a true professional, all while being so warm, kind, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. She made the entire planning process feel effortless, and we always knew we were in the best hands. On our wedding day, Katherine, who was assigned to me and the bridal suite, was an absolute gift. She anticipated every need before I even realized I had one, kept everything running smoothly, and brought such a calming, joyful presence to the day. I felt so cared for from start to finish. Then there's the food... where do I even begin? It was truly on another level. Our guests are still talking about how incredible every single bite was. If you're looking for wedding food that people will rave about long after the day is over, this is it. Of course, our wedding came with one unexpected twist—we had to move everything indoors because of the Canadian wildfire smoke (something we never could have imagined!). But the team at The Eldridge Furnace Inn handled it so seamlessly that it honestly felt like it was always meant to be. They completely transformed the indoor space into something absolutely magical. And as if the day couldn't have been any more perfect, the smoke cleared just enough during cocktail hour for us to step outside and enjoy the breathtaking views the venue is known for. It was everything our hearts had dreamed of and so much more. You can truly feel how much every member of the staff cares. It was obvious that so many people worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make sure we had the best day of our lives, and we are forever grateful for every single one of them. If you're considering The Eldridge Furnace Inn for your wedding, don't hesitate. We would recommend them a thousand times over. This place will always hold such a special place in our hearts, and we already know we'll be back again and again to enjoy their restaurant—because seriously, the food is out of this world. Thank you to everyone at The Eldridge Furnace Inn for giving us a day we'll cherish forever. ️”

“Usually when working with someone you consider family, they will take advantage of the situation and not always give their best or be professional. Not in this case. Kevin went above and beyond for us. He captured our beautiful moment in such a way we will always be able to remember. He listened to our vision but also put his twist to it. He was very professional and his interaction with us was fun and inviting. He even captured moments past the time he was contracted for. You won’t be disappointed when booking him!”

  • Ceremony only

Black, White, & Steel (BWS) is a women-owned piano and cello duo founded in 2017. What began as an idea during a play date with their young children quickly grew into a shared passion for creating beautiful music together. With decades of combined professional performance experience, advanced music degrees, and a love for celebrating life's biggest moments, Allida and Christine are passionate about creating the perfect soundtrack for every wedding.

“From our first conversation with Christine at Black, White, & Steel, we knew we had found the right band for our daughter's wedding. When the venue told us the night before the ceremony that they couldn't provide a microphone for our Pastor, one quick phone call to Christine she said I got you covered. This was not part of their deal. The prelude music set such a gorgeous tone for the ceremony, and every song they played that evening was exactly what we'd hoped for. Christine and Allida communicated with us in a clear, straightforward way throughout the whole planning process, and their dedication to getting every detail right really showed. If you're looking for professionals, that will create a beautiful atmosphere and actually care about making your celebration special, don't pass on Black, White, & Steel.”

First and foremost, congratulations! This is an exciting time! Before I begin with all the details, I would like to do away with the formalities and keep it light. Technically speaking, I’m a photographer, but honestly, since establishing my business in 2014, I would consider myself a teammate through this process. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know couples, their families, their stories, and at the end of the day, becoming a good friend. If this vibes with you, we are off to a good start :) Answering questions, transparency in communication, and prompt responses are important to me and I hope that everything I share resonates.

He was prompt at responding to me, getting me his information, and booking our shoot. At the photo shoot, he made us feel so comfortable and like we are the most photogenic people, despite any nerves we may have had. We got previews in less than 24 hours and our full gallery in 2.5 weeks. The photos are gorgeous. It was hard to pick which ones we want to post and which ones we want to use for invitations because they’re literally all SO good! 10/10 would recommend Justin for your photography needs!!”

We shared some playlists with him for the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and the dance floor, and he completely understood the vibes we were going for and ran with it, working in everything from Irish folk songs to KPop Demon Hunters to Bruce Springsteen. So many guests told us the music felt just like “us” and commented on what a great DJ Michael was. As the bride, I even postponed changing into my “late night” dress because I wanted to spend more time on the dance floor!

“Having a band play our Northern Virginia wedding was very important to us. We found Bachelor Boys on Instagram and relished their vibe from the get-go. They felt more personal than the conglomerates with dozens of band. We watched them perform at a showcase in the Baltimore area and loved how they structured their evening with different pairings of band members and instruments - it helped us make an informed decision about the number of instruments we wanted to include. We were wow-ed by Amber at the showcase, and were thrilled to have her emcee our wedding! Communication with the band was very straightforward. We only had a handful of requests, but otherwise, let them play the sets as they saw fit. Truthfully, I can’t remember them taking many breaks because it felt like they played the whole night! Our guests continue to say how excellent the band was! For the ceremony, the band provided a speaker and a representative to press “play” on our music. We also had a trio perform beautifully at cocktail hour. One fun note: we opted for parent dances, and the band had no issues with my Bruce Springsteen deep cut. The singer even channeled his “Boss” to really sound like Bruce! Our dance floor was full from the start, and we loved the sets they played. We had a blast dancing at our wedding - Highly recommend Bachelor Boys!”

“Ed was so helpful and easy to work with our entire wedding process, which was a breath of fresh air in a very busy season! My friend had him at her wedding a few years prior and highly recommended him, and I’m so glad we took her suggestion! Ed has a great DJ website where you can add all the songs you like, as well as which songs you don’t want to hear (which is very important for me). He then creates amazing mixes with the songs and knows how to keep the party going. I was really happy he was able to find our first dance song, which is from the 1940s and not easy to stream from just anywhere (thank you!!!). Our dance floor felt tailored to us, and the lights were so fun. He also did our introductions and gave the guests instructions when needed. If you’re on the fence about getting a DJ, book Edward Zaruba—he made our reception FUN!”

Ryan began his wedding videography career in 2010 in Los Angeles and quickly became recognized as one of the top videographers in the U.S.. After relocating to DC and still receiving countless inquiries from all corners of the country, Ryan decided to recruit and train a few talented friends so he could continue offering the quality wedding videography he’s known for in SoCal and eventually over 10 cities. Shutter and Sound is a very small group of filmmakers dedicated to turning your big day into a work of art.

Our photographer Joanna and lead videographer Michael—along with a second videographer—worked seamlessly as a team and were collaborative, professional, and incredibly adaptable when timing got tight. We didn’t have a coordinator or planner, and they fully stepped up: organizing people, calling the shots when needed, keeping everything on schedule, and making the day feel calm and put together while still filming and photographing. They treated everyone with genuine respect, helped with anything we needed (even holding our dogs’ leashes for group photos), and stayed focused and positive through a very long day—including hiking to our site. We truly could not have pulled off this wedding without them. Their work ethic, skill, and presence made it the best day of our lives.”

“I had such a wonderful experience with NVS Beauty. I found them about 1.5 months before my wedding and handled everything through Iga. She made the scheduling process incredibly easy and stress-free. Because of my own time constraints, I chose not to do a trial and I’ll admit I was a bit anxious going into the day. But Skye, my artist, was absolutely amazing. She arrived early, was so patient with me (I always ask a million questions during these kinds of services!), and immediately put me at ease. As someone who doesn’t wear much makeup and was nervous about not looking like myself, I can’t express how grateful I am for how reassuring and thoughtful she was throughout the entire process. Skye really took care of me as a nervous bride, and I ended up loving how I looked. My mom and my best friend also received services, and they were both so happy with their looks as well. My hair turned out even better than what I pictured and the style lasted all day. Thank you so much to Skye for being such an important part of making my day feel calm, supported, and truly incredible. I can’t recommend them enough. [Photo by Lindsey Maree Photography]”

Awarded Best of Zola
“Even before the wedding day Bhanu was thoughtful and intentional about making sure he would capture our story. Planning a wedding with mostly DIY elements to it, Bhanu was helpful in providing a suggested day-of timeline and also being accomodating on the actual wedding day. For the photography, he gave me and my husband plenty of time to naturally spend time together away from the crowd to take in the moment. He took both natural and guided poses to create a gallery of the most precious photos. As a lover of all art forms, I was especially appreciative of the natural photos of our wedding guests and the gorgeous sunset couple shoot we did as the evening drew to a close. I'm so grateful to Bhanu and feeling lucky to have come across his profile on Zola!”
