Erin Winter Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Serves Fairfax, VA

I am so excited you're here! My name is Erin, and I'm your Washington DC area wedding photographer. I'm a sucker for stunning natural light, and have a passion for preserving precious moments and everyday beauty. Big smiles, infectious laughter, colorful flowers and the clinking of champagne glasses are just a few of my favorite things.

I had the honor of being Erin’s first wedding she shot when moved to the DC area! Although there are tons of photographers in the area, Erin’s work truly outshined everyone else’s portfolios and I snatched her up before she even moved to Virginia! Erin had never shot at my venue, so she made sure to come to multiple planning sessions with the venue and my wedding planner to scout locations and build my wedding timeline — with a newborn baby! She made the extra effort to support me in ways she DID NOT need to do, but just another reason why she is in a league above the rest. She made me (and my husband, who hates photos) feel so comfortable on our day while not forcing staged photos once we were tired. We even got film photos that were jaw dropping. My gallery had way more photos than I anticipated, and the turnaround time was quick for the full gallery and sneak peeks. I want to get married all over again just to relive her work!!

The Atrium at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens 

5.0

Vienna, VA
  • Venue
  • Up to 230 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $15,000

The Atrium is perfectly nestled within Meadowlark Botanical Gardens and overlooks 95 acres of lush gardens, green hills, and perfectly manicured landscape. Voted as one of the premiere wedding venues in the Greater Washington area, The Atrium can accommodate up to 230 seated guests for a wedding reception and up to 300 standing guests.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Has a dance floor for celebration
  • Provides catering services
  • Picturesque garden backdrop

Venue considerations

  • No on-premises lodging options
  • Not wheelchair accessible
  • Additional event staff required
As soon as we took a tour of the Atrium, we knew this was the perfect spot to get married. The gardens are beautiful, and the inside the building the glass walls, plants, and little river give an airy and natural feel. I didn't worry about rain because you feel like you're outside even when you're in. When guests got too hot on the dance floor, they could go out and socialize on the patio overlooking the gardens in the cool night air. Given the meal prices for comparable venues, this venue is GREAT VALUE!! The food was great and the guests were happy. There were a couple small things that might be helpful to share, though. Our point of contact changed several times in the span of our engagement and there was sometimes a delay in communication. Also, the venue was marketed as a capacity of 200 people but it is better suited to weddings of 160-180 guests. When you go over 180, you have to choose some guests to seat in a room that feels divided by the little stream which is awkward. Also, there is no space for getting ready so brides and bridesmaids have to get ready off-site. Overall, I was overjoyed with having my wedding day here and I think for the price we still had an incredible experience. I don't regret it at all!!

I have the coolest job in the world: I create emotional time capsules for my couples (and hopefully you too). That way, you get to be fully present on your wedding day and you get to relive that day over and over again with the same intensity, joy and love. My not-so-secret sauce is this: I get to know you. I find out what makes you and your lover tick, and then, I craft a visual story that's reflective of you. My utmost goal is to create joyful imagery for folks who want things documented exactly as they felt.

There are only good things to say about working with Maggie! We booked her for our engagement photos as well as for our wedding day. During the engagement session, she captured some true gems by helping us stay comfortable and true to ourselves. Leading up to our wedding day she was communicative, made sure she understood what our vision/priorities were, and worked well with our planner. On our wedding day, she was so fun to work with, got some beautiful shots of the big moments, and some incredible shots of little ones, too. Even just in our sneak peaks from our wedding, there are so many lovely candids amidst well-placed staged family/couple shots. She has great vision and good ideas and is fun to be around for the process! Regardless, her work speaks for itself. We highly recommend booking Maggie for your engagement and wedding photos!!

Our highly experienced design team is ready to help you create the wedding of your dreams. Choose from our fully inclusive wedding packages or request a custom menu and designer touches to best fit your vision. In addition to our delicious and unique cuisine, our team can also assist you with vendor referrals, rentals, linens, place settings, beverages and event event coordination.

Working with Genesis for our wedding was seamless. Dianna was very kind, organized, and went above and beyond to assist us in our catering needs. Genesis also provided mirror rounds and vases for our centerpieces. Dianna suggested the most popular menu items and helped with other decisions. She was well acquainted with our venue, which was very valuable. The food was as expected for wedding fare at this price point, and guests had positive reviews on the bartenders and appetizers. We picked Genesis because they were the lowest cost approved vendor for Top of the Town and felt like we got a great value. They let us bring in our own alcohol and provided great bar service (staff and mixers) at a reasonable price. There was never a line at the bar. Everything went smoothly on the wedding day, that we know of, and we’d recommend Genesis for someone looking at a caterer in this budget!

For Brookside, how does this sound? Brookside Gardens is a stunning place to get married. We got married in March, and despite fewer plants being in bloom, it was perfect. The daffodils and cherry blossom trees were stunning. We got married on Sakura Hill, under the twin Sakura weeping cherry trees, and although they weren't in bloom yet, the intricate branches and light buds looked beautiful. We took some newly-wed photos in the Conservatory, which is gorgeous year-round! Our reception was in the auditorium, which made it much easier and less stressful to plan for the possibility of rain. We DIYd our decor (ivy hung from the ceiling and curtain lights along the two walls), and it looked like an absolute dream! Jennifer, the event coordinator for Brookside Gardens, is extremely knowledgeable, organized, and responsive. She is very direct in her feedback, which was helpful. She was initially a little concerned about our auditorium decor plans, but she allowed us a couple of hours to do a dry-run when the space was not in use, and that was incredibly helpful to us to work out our kinks and surely also put her mind at ease. Because she is so knowledgeable about the gardens, she knew exactly the best spots for photographs, where most plants would be in bloom. The Brookside staff were also incredibly helpful on the day of the wedding. Since it's a public park, it's not closed off during the event, but staff blocked off key entrances to our ceremony space during the duration of our ceremony so that we had some privacy. They also drove the golf cart to transport our guests who needed accommodations, as well as to transport us from site to site. Brookside Gardens, being a Montgomery County Park, is also extremely affordable, and they offer a lower rate for MoCo residents. We added features to our contract like the fireplace and access to the Conservatory for photos, and it all fell within our small venue budget. One thing to note is that you're required to rent a dance floor if using the auditorium (we used Sammy's Rental and had a really good experience), which adds to the venue cost. You're also required to hire a full service and licensed caterer, but you can hire whoever you want as long as Brookside approves of them. That flexibility was incredibly important to us as we wanted to cater Indian food for our wedding, and most other venues require you to select from their short list of approved caterers. We loved our experience at Brookside Gardens, and we can't wait to regularly visit our wedding site (for free!) and remember how special our day was.

Where do I even begin with this review?! Jennifer has been an absolute gift to work with throughout our wedding planning process, and now that we just go our sneak peeks back, we know we made the right choice with her! We did not use Jennifer for our engagement pictures, so I knew I was taking a risk when hiring her as our wedding day photographer. I was confident with what I saw on social media and our email correspondence ensured me that she would make a great fit for us. She was communicative along the entire way and was intentional when asking for our shot list. On the day of, it was very clear that she was very purposeful in capturing all of my preferred shots and made a dedicated effort to be present for each moment of the day. Jennifer was very professional and both her and her second shooter, Alex, found fun and creative ways to capture unique imagery from our ceremony and reception. She was attentive to our needs as a couple, made lots of great photo recommendations, and did not push us to do any pictures/poses we weren't into. Jennifer knew we wanted to be a part of cocktail hour and was happy to accommodate all of our formal pictures before the ceremony. She was discreet during the ceremony and captured lots of wonderful group shots at the reception. A week before the event she was happy to add on a few additional hours from our original contract. I truly cannot recommend her enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
We’ve said it many times during the wedding planning process and we’ll continue to shout it to the hills: hiring Kristy and her team was the best decision we’ve ever made and the best money we’ve ever spent. From the consultation and throughout the entire process Kristy was lovely to work with and incredibly friendly and personal but also always on top of everything. She flagged so many little details that we never would have thought of but led to a much smoother wedding day. Her detailed resources, templates, and documents were invaluable, but she was also flexible when I needed to make my own spreadsheets to keep everything straight in a way that worked with my brain. The timeline she created for us was a work of art and a thing of beauty and something I could have never done on my own. She included every single facet of the event from load in and load out for every vendor down to when we needed to bring our checkbook. Handing communications with vendors to her team in the last few months was amazing and definitely reduced our stress levels. While the timeline was delayed (due to another vendor), Kristy pivoted quickly and ensured that things got back on track and as close to the plan as possible. When we changed our mind on things mid-wedding (like if we wanted a more formal send off) she ensured that it was actually what we wanted but then changed to accommodate it. She also organized tear down of all the decor so that all we had to do was show up the morning after to pick up our belongings. As a queer couple, one of whom is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, Kristy and her team made us feel welcomed and affirmed for the entire process while vetting vendors to make sure they were LGBT friendly and listing our (and our wedding party’s) pronouns on resource sheets so that the whole vendor team was aware and misgendering was as limited as possible (and never by Kristy or her team). She (or a team member?) also recommended many amazing vendors to us including our amazing DJ who had the exact vibe we wanted (gay pop dance party) and ensured the dance floor was full and everyone loved the music choices. Kristy led our rehearsal like a (very nice) drill sergeant, which made it so much more efficient and effective than others I’ve been a part of. The ceremony went off without any major hitches and everyone (including 13 wedding party members, both of our parents, our officiant, and us) knew where they needed to be and when to do what. I was incredibly impressed and super grateful. It also ensured that I didn’t need to think or worry about the little details like making sure seats were reserved and that people started walking at the right time. My only regret is that we didn’t have the budget to have her team plan our rehearsal dinner as well. That experience versus the day of the wedding was a huge contrast. On the day of, I could answer every question with “ask Kristy” and she would always have the answer. As a very anxious and “type A” person I fully trusted Kristy and her team throughout the process which was wonderful for my sanity. I was able to offload all the thinking and logistics onto her and her team and be much more present at my wedding with my now wife and friends and family. Photos by Abby Carissimo.

My hobbies are painting, sawing and printing, and my biggest passion are flower designs and expressions. I gained experience and education working for florist and event companies in the area for couple of years and fell in love with working on tying dreams, sentiments and spaces with flowers, into a perfect personal and intimate creation.

I was about to propose to my girlfriend. I was so nervous about planning everything into the smallest details. I found Jelena to make me a bouquet of 100 roses. Not only that she made the best bouquet that I had ever seen, but she went way further by helping me with some new ideas of what to do, and she even managed to deliver the bouquet to the restaurant in the middle of the dinner without anyone noticing, so I was able to pick it up as soon as my girlfriend said “Yes!” 
I'm never going to forget what Jelena did for me in those days and I’m never going to a different florist for any future occasions! Thank you, Jelena! You are the best!

My passion for floral design began over twenty years ago in a greenhouse in a small Michigan town, traveled through the mountains of Colorado and Arizona, to the beaches of Southern California, settling in Washington, DC. Education in graphic design has helped to sharpen my attention to detail and given me an eye for color and composition.

Jolie is an absolute ARTIST and a true joy to work with for our wedding! From the very beginning, she completely understood and embraced our vision of leaning into the holidays. She helped us refine our ideas, always coming up with thoughtful suggestions while being respectful of our choices every step of the way. Our planning process with Jolie was smooth and enjoyable, thanks to her pleasant and organized approach. In the months leading up to the wedding, she was thorough yet never overly complicated, keeping things clear and straightforward. The planning phone calls were perfectly balanced—just enough to ensure everything was sorted without adding unnecessary stress. Jolie even went above and beyond by attending our venue walk-through and doing additional site visits on her own to make sure every detail would be perfect. On the wedding day, Jolie delivered beautiful personal bouquets, and our venue set up far exceeded our expectations. She created the most gorgeous arrangements for the mantel that we married in front of, as well as gorgeous and creative centerpieces that fit our holiday vision. Beyond her immense talent, Jolie is bright, caring, and bubbly—a true light throughout the process. Her work is not only breathtaking but also an incredible value for the care and dedication she puts into every detail. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and would recommend Jolie wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a florist who’s as passionate and talented as she is kind.

We cannot recommend Jon enough! He photographed our proposal and wedding, and we were shocked at how quickly he got our photos back to us. He captured every angle of our wedding and I am so thankful we will be able to look back on our photos and remember all the details of our wedding day! The quality of his photos are amazing and he was very easy to communicate with. Our family and friends continue to rave about his work. Thank you so much for everything Jon!

I’m Vanessa, a Gaithersburg, MD-based couple + wedding photographer for the wildly in-love. My life was changed by love. Seriously, rocked, rumbled, wrecked, repeat. Okay, it might sound dramatic, but my relationship with my now-husband has truly changed my world and soul for the better. We were lil baby high school sweethearts turned long distance when my husband joined the Marine Corps, and our journey together means absolutely everything to me. I know yours does too, and getting to capture it is the hugest joy and honor.

I cannot recommend Vanessa enough! The photos from our wedding are absolutely stunning — truly everything I dreamed they would be and more. She was incredibly organized, communicative, and on top of every detail from start to finish. I’ve known her for a long time, and getting to work with her on something so special meant the world to me. Vanessa and her husband Patrick (the second shooter) captured every single shot perfectly — nothing was missed! As someone who usually shies away from being in front of the camera, she made me feel so comfortable, confident, and, most importantly- beautiful. She knew exactly how to pose me and my now-husband in our engagement and wedding photos. She is truly gifted. I am completely and utterly obsessed with her and her work. If you’re considering Vanessa for your wedding or any event, do yourself a favor and book her. Not choosing her would be a mistake!

Meet Katelyn, the visionary behind the lens, the master of capturing love stories; and a true artist with an impeccable eye for detail, an innate ability to freeze time, and the unique gift of encapsulating the raw emotions, intimate moments, and cherished memories that make weddings so extraordinary. From a young age, she discovered the power of storytelling through her mom's scrap books and National Geographic magazines, sparking an undying fascination with capturing the essence of life's most profound moments. She studies under renowned photographers, soaking up their wisdom and honing her own unique style; authentic photojournalism.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing Katelyn as our wedding photographer was undoubtedly one of the easiest and best decisions we made for our wedding day! We had the pleasure of seeing her work firsthand at a friend's wedding, with who knows how many cameras strapped on! Seeing her attention to detail firsthand and the beautiful quality of our friends photos, she was first on our list for a consultation. From our first call, Katelyn embraced our vision with enthusiasm and professionalism. We knew we wanted a documentary-style photographer with the option of film photos (we loved that Katelyn includes these already) who could capture the genuine emotions and candid moments of our wedding with our lively group, and Katelyn delivered! Despite our initial nervousness about being in front of the camera, Katelyn made us feel incredibly comfortable. Having an engagement shoot beforehand was a great practice run, she has an incredible talent for putting people at ease, and this truly shines through in the photos. We have never felt so photogenic! Our album turned out better than we could have dreamed up. It is truly reflective of us and our day. Complete with details of my treasured Kirkland sweatpants on the way to our venue contrasted with my dress glam Katelyn’s commitment to us was truly exceptional as she had a family loss shortly before our wedding. It would have been more than understandable for her to need more time away or to find us a replacement. Despite this, Katelyn remained fully committed to capturing our day and we are so so grateful. Her dedication and professionalism during such a difficult time speaks volumes about her passion for her work and for her clients. Katelyn is a true artist and an amazing person. Her work exceeded all our expectations, and we feel so fortunate to have had her as part of our wedding team. The only question we have is how early is too early for a vow renewal so we can hire her again!

Recent news: 24k is proud to have been chosen as the entertainment for the National Women's Art Museum in October!

We hired 24K Event Band for our long-postponed COVID wedding this March (2022). They were phenomenal in every way. From the very beginning, Jill, the band leader, made the experience very easy. She was incredibly responsive and helpful. She guided us through the process, asked all the right questions and helped us think of things we certainly hadn't thought of ourselves. The band learned two custom songs for us, one for our first dance and another for the mother/son dance. They CRUSHED the songs! Absolutely amazing. Overall the entire experiences was beyond my wildest dreams. Everyone at the wedding was amazed by the talent and energy of the band. We loved all of the vendors we worked with to make our night special, but 24K Event Band went above and beyond and really made the night come together. I would highly, highly recommend them. Great energy, great enthusiasm, amazing to work with, and incredible talent.

We used The Easy Pour as our bartenders at our wedding after realizing they were perfect for our vision of what we wanted our day to be like for us and our guests. Chris was absolutely amazing! He was super communicative throughout the entire process from our first email more than a year before the wedding and all the way through the wedding night. He helped us create the perfect drink selections and clearly knew what to do to make our vision come to life. The drinks were perfect and our wedding was able to be so stress-free knowing that we could trust Chris and his team to get it done.
