Alex and Mike (DJ Femmy) were exceptional throughout every stage of our wedding planning process. Alex led a thorough discovery/onboarding call with us and after getting to know us, paired us with DJ Femmy who was the perfect compliment for the 2000s millennial hip hop and modern day pop hits we were looking for. DJ Femmy played several extra songs and we received so many compliments on our DJ. One of the best parts of working with Toussaint Productions is their planning app, which was so helpful in organizing music for all the key moments of the day and for bringing to light moments that weren't even on my radar! We also used Toussaint for our ceremony audio and dance floor lighting, it was wonderful to have multiple services covered under one vendor and as a veteran household, always great to support a veteran-owned business. Huge thanks to Mike and Femmy for keeping the party going at our wedding!

DJ Nilla absolutely crushed it at our wedding! From start to finish, he was professional, friendly, and an absolute joy to work with. He was incredibly flexible with our playlists, blending the music we wanted with great crowd-pleasers to keep the energy high and the dance floor packed all night long. He brought all his own equipment and handled everything so smoothly that we didn’t have to worry about a thing. On top of that, his communication was amazing. He met with us in person, kept in touch through texts and calls, and made sure every detail was exactly how we wanted it. He really cared about making our day perfect, and it showed.

Awarded Best of Zola
When discussing wedding budget with my now husband, we both picked a non-negotiable (absolute must have, no wiggle room) and a "do without" (if we didn't have the budget, we wouldn't think twice about it). My non-negotiable was the venue, his was the wedding video. We just re-watched our wedding video last night (over 3 years after saying "I do") and I am so beyond happy that we chose Marc to capture our special day. From the transition, to the editing and voice overlay, and everything in between, Mako Productions crafted the perfect video representative of us, our love, and our special day. I was speechless when I first saw the video and continue to be every time I rewatch it. Every emotion and moment we experienced over the course of that day was so beautifully captured and reflected in the video we received. I could not imagine trusting anyone else to do a better job, it's simply not possible. The professionalism and discreet presence was the cherry on top of a perfect day celebrating love. Marc and Mako Productions truly outdid themselves in capturing our special day and I will scream from the roof tops to let them do the same for you. You will not regret it.

I’m Laura - a photographer and lifelong storyteller who believes that being human is the art. I create imagery for people who don’t always see themselves in traditional photography: the dreamers, the artists, the misfits, and anyone still reaching for the clouds. My work blends editorial sensibility with emotional honesty. Think expressive color, playful imagination, and images that feel like they’re humming with soul. I’m here to make you feel seen, safe, and celebrated - because the best art happens when you’re allowed to simply be yourself. You bring the story; I’ll build the vision.

LMM Photography is incredible. She's down-to-earth and proactive. She's affordable and creative. She's perfect. Hire her, you will be amazed! She made planning easy and fun. She was always available when I had questions or ideas. When it came to the big event I almost forgot she was there to take photos. She was so diligent and helped me avoid the major bridal stress. She even saved our wedding photos! A bridesmaid had a major issue with bridesmaid dress and waited until the day of the wedding to let me know. So on the big day I was doing alterations, which pushed me back by hours. I tried really hard not to let it upset me (because things happen) and I thought I had missed doing the getting ready photos--little did I know that LMM was doing her thing while I was trying not to panic because I was surprised when I received my wedding photos to see that she also took some of THE BEST getting ready photos. Not to mention, because she took initiative, she put me back on track and I literally got to the ceremony on time! I was so grateful, I cried when I finally got to see the photos knowing that someone had actually captured those memories. I have now hired her for SEVERAL photography sessions, and I will continue to do so! Thank you, Laura!!

We had such a wonderful experience working with Buxton Media Productions. From start to finish, Joshua was a dream to have as our videographer. He blended into the day so seamlessly that I often forgot he was there and that was exactly what I loved most. Many of our guests even commented afterward on how he was like a “fly on the wall,” capturing every meaningful moment without ever intruding on the joy and intimacy of the day. The final videos are breathtaking. Joshua’s eye for detail paired with Maddie’s editing created a highlight reel that feels cinematic yet deeply personal. Maddie pulled together the emotions, energy, and little in-between moments into something we’ll treasure forever. Watching it feels like reliving the day all over again. Professional, kind, and incredibly talented, Joshua and Maddie exceeded our expectations in every way. If you’re looking for a team who will honor the authenticity of your wedding while also delivering stunning, high-quality work, I couldn’t recommend them more highly.

Nothing feels staged or artificial in any way. The smiles, the tears, and even the quiet moments feel completely genuine. I love how naturally everything unfolded.

Christa's communication was professional, quick to get back to us, informative and friendly throughout the planning process, which made her a joy to work with. The quality and value of her work was amazing - she has a classic style that results in gorgeous, timeless photos.

Let's be real. Weddings are wonderful and powerful and amazing days, but they're also big balls of stress. The best advice I ever received was from a friend who said, "find the photographer who can capture the amazing intimate moments, but also the person who you'd want to be a fly on the wall for them." After all, you spend about as much time with your wedding photographer as you do with your new spouse. Bethany was perfect for us. She captured engagement photos so stunning, so authentic, that I wish we could get a new set every year for our family. She captured perfect (occasionally hilarious) moments at the wedding that I would have completely missed otherwise - the way a friend helped you relax by pressing down on your shoulders as you got ready, the way your cousins looked at each other during a wedding toast, the way the cabin looked, it was perfect. And she created an amazing, dramatic photo that took full advantage of the rainy weekend. She's also just fun to be with; despite the stress around us, she was ready with a little joke that helped put us at ease. I think she's one of the only photographers who really got "me" in photos - not the person I try to be, or the awkward person who is trying to smile in the photos, but the person I am. I couldn't recommend her more.

My journey into the wedding industry may be unconventional, but it has given me the skills and expertise to execute flawless events with ease. I started my career as a civil engineer, managing large-scale projects where problem-solving, attention to detail, and seamless coordination were essential. While I loved the technical side of it, what truly excited me was bringing a vision to life—orchestrating every moving piece to ensure a successful outcome. Now, I’ve combined my love for organization and creativity into wedding coordination and event planning, where I help couples turn their dream weddings into reality.

Y’all, it is not an over-exaggeration when I say: hiring EventBay and Bashan was single-handedly the greatest choice we made in our entire wedding process. I cannot thank Bashan enough for her services, in addition to her several helpers who supported our wedding. My husband and I contracted with EventBay for our day-of wedding coordination. We’d heard great things about her through our friend/my bridesmaid, and all the hype was real. When we say we chose her, we didn’t realize that this service would include Bashan showing up to and running our entire rehearsal, giving us wrap-around services the day of, and meeting with us several times leading up to the wedding itself. We were so incredibly grateful for all of the supports Bashan gave us throughout the entire process. In addition to her coordination services, we also contracted with Bashan for balloon decoration. Bashan got to know Miles and I with our initial call, in person meeting at the venue, and zoom call, and with all of that knowledge, she threw together the most BEAUTIFUL balloon arch. This took up one of the major walls in our wedding and was full of rainbow colors (I’m nonbinary), marbled balloons, and was complete with thoughtful details of rainbow roses inserted into every color change in the arch. WOW! Let me tell you: this thing took my breath away. I was married at a local venue, and while the event was GORGEOUS, Bashan insured that I would never be aware that a tragedy occurred at the venue unrelated to the wedding. She handled the issue with grace and her and her staff ensured that those of us in the wedding never felt the impact of what occurred. You never want a disaster to strike at your wedding, but to my knowledge, that day, I wasn’t even aware that one had happened, and that really speaks to the services EventBay provides. From now on, I will be contracting with Bashan for everything. If ever a friend needs an event planner, a decorator, ANYTHING, I will tell them: don’t go to anyone else. This is who you NEED!

Lauren was the BEST to work with! I booked a trial with her and was able to do my engagement photos right after. My wedding wasn't for another year, and the way she listened to each of the small tweaks I wanted to make to the wedding day look was amazing. I have never felt so beautiful before in my life. She provided a "glam" look without me feeling like I had makeup caked on my face. I still felt like myself. Attaching a photo from when my makeup was first completed around 1pm, then a photo from 3am after the wedding! I was still flawless! Side note...her prices feel like a steal compared to other makeup vendors in the area and the quality of service she provides. Book Lauren if you want to slay on your wedding day.

I’m a wedding photographer with a fine art meets photojournalism style, which I began to cultivate while attending the Corcoran College of Art + Design in DC.

Grace Dreim Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,750
  • Serves Fort George G Meade, MD

Like with anything I do, I’ve put much heart, work and energy into photography. Yet, the most rewarding part are still the emotions, and happy messages I get from my clients. Nothing charges and empowers me more. On your wedding day, you shouldn't have to worry, cause I am there to help you in every way possible. I make sure your dress is all nice and fluffed in every picture, that there is nothing in your teeth, I catch every fly away and I am there to be your hype girl.

Grace was an absolute gem of a human on the day of my wedding and leading up to it. I can't get over how stunning the photos are just from the sneak peek gallery. She has such an eye for unique shots and is amazing at directing you as well as your overly-stimulated new husband. We coordinated a ton of surprise aspects and were able to pull them off with Grace's help. She also ended up fixing boutonnieres, ensuring my hair looked amazing before each shot, and worked so well with our videographer, planner and all other vendors. I can't wait to see the full gallery and can't recommend her enough!

Hemlock Farm was the perfect venue for our wedding and we couldn't have asked for a better experience from start to finish. Jen and the team were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the planning process, especially since we were coming from out of town—they went out of their way to store all the items we brought and made sure everything was taken care of. We loved having access to the space for the entire weekend, which allowed us to use the barn as a getting-ready area for my bridesmaids the day before and gave our families a comfortable place to get out of the heat. The property itself is stunning and spacious, with a beautiful barn that exceeded our expectations. Everything was included in their pricing, which made planning straightforward and stress-free. We would absolutely recommend Hemlock Farm to any couple looking for a gorgeous venue with a team that truly cares about making your day special.

I truly could not have asked for a better hair and makeup team for my wedding day. From my trial to the wedding itself, the entire experience exceeded every expectation. My trial was incredible and gave me so much confidence going into the big day. I was searching everywhere for a team that could create the glamorous, snatched bridal look I envisioned, and after a lot of research, I found Davey and Kristi. They absolutely delivered. On the wedding day, they brought such a fun, calming energy to the getting-ready suite, which made the morning feel so relaxed and enjoyable. Even better, it rained on my wedding day, and somehow my hair and makeup still looked absolutely flawless from start to finish. I felt so beautiful, and everything held up perfectly despite the weather. Davey and Kristi are an incredible duo, and their talent speaks for itself. Beyond that, they made me feel comfortable, confident, and truly cared for on one of the biggest days of my life. I also have to give a huge shoutout to Sarah, their coordinator. She was one of the easiest vendors I worked with throughout the entire wedding planning process—always responsive, organized, incredibly helpful, and just a joy to work with. If you’re looking for a bridal beauty team that is exceptionally talented, professional, and genuinely wonderful to be around, I cannot recommend them highly enough. They made me feel like the best version of myself, and I’m so grateful they were part of our wedding day.
