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.

Bellevate Concierge was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. Their communication style was clear, concise, kind, timely, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire wedding planning process. The quality of their work and the value they provided was truly outstanding - they were so organized, supportive, and professional, going above and beyond at every turn. They handled so many things behind the scenes that I never even caught wind of, truly taking the stress away from me on a day that shouldn't be stressful. They picked up on every detail I wanted during the planning handover without me needing to repeat it several times, and were so detail-oriented. They really eased my stress in the last few weeks before the wedding. My sister, who has been in 5 bridal parties, said Jasmine and her team are the best day-of coordinators she has ever experienced - a huge compliment since she is very particular. I would 100% recommend Bellevate Concierge to any future brides looking for someone to ease their worries and make their wedding day truly special.

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!

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.

My husband and I hired Marc in 2021 to capture our wedding video. As soon as we met Marc, we instantly felt so comfortable and at ease with him and in front of the camera! He truly is so personable, kind, and most importantly- he is amazing at what he does. He was always right there capturing every special moment and highlight during our wedding- he didn't miss a thing. Even though it's been almost four years now, I still remember the moment that my husband and I received our video back from Marc (he had a very quick turn around time, by the way!) We watched it over and over and couldn't stop smiling and tearing up throughout the entire video. Fast forward four years later, we now have a two year old little boy and even he loves watching our wedding video with us! It is so special to be able to share a video of our wedding day with him. We are so thankful that we hired Marc to capture our big day and that we have our beautiful wedding video to look back on and relive that day as the years go by. Thank you Marc!!

From the very start CJ was amazing to work with! He is very easy to communicate with and super responsive to any questions. He has a worksheet to fill out with any specific songs for certain parts of the evening or for the reception dance floor, and by the end of the night he had gotten to every requested song. He was even able to throw in the Eagles fight song for the groom! There were a few moments in the night that we let CJ decide the music for and he chose the perfect songs to fit the vibe. He was great at reading the dance floor and adjusting to the crowd, and he had some fun mixes of well known songs to switch things up. On more than one occasion our guests raved about CJ through the night, and we couldn't have been happier with his work.

Maddy and Cass were always happy, fun and genuinely interested in not just the wedding, but our family and our happiness! They could not have been more dependable, utterly trustworthy, organized, always accessible, and showed great judgement! One example of how they went above and beyond was we had a decorative seating chart on a 69”X78” 20 paned glass window that they protected, transported and stored for us at their inconvenience. Furthermore, during the wedding reception not only did they make sure everything was perfect as we planned, but on the fly they used great judgement to make the reception better by tweaking the arrangement. As well, we had no worries once the wedding was over because we knew we could trust them to secure anything of value and what we owned, as well as what any vendor might of left behind. Even so far as to hold our possessions in their home until it was convenient for us to get them. We loved Maddy and Cass and highly recommend them as your wedding planners.

  • Photographer

  • Serves Hanover, MD

I am a full time award winning professional photographer born and raised in the Annapolis area. I photograph just 30 weddings per year, and I have photographed over 300 weddings in my 11 year career as a wedding photographer. I am truly passionate about creating images that my couples will love and have to look back on years and years from now and to share with future generations. I strive to be best friends and fierce cheerleaders of my couples, because you should not only love the photos your photographer produces, but also love the person behind the camera.

Christa delivered us everything we wanted and more! From the start, Christa was organized and communicative about everything. We got to know her during our Engagment photo shoot and were excited to work with her then and at the wedding. She helped us figure out our day of timeline and how photos would fit into it since we were planning on doing a first look and knocking out ALL of the immediate family portraits out of the way… and there were 140 photo combinations we wanted due to us both having 3 siblings each and divorced parents. Christa and her second photographer captured these photos ALL before the ceremony even started - plus a few additional photos we love but didn’t initially have on our shot list. We picked Christa based on her style and editing and we are more than pleased with the products. We have gotten back our full gallery and there are SO many photos - it’s going to be very difficult picking our favorites to hang around the house without overwhelming the walls . All of our friends and family love the photos so much and have even asked who our photographer was. We will always recommend Christa!

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.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

I live for documenting the connections between people—the genuine, unscripted, deeply human moments that tell a real story. 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. I believe in “happily ever afters” because I found mine with my husband, Jared. We've been married for 20 years. I love photographing couples who (like me) have found their person—their best friend, partner, and soulmate. My mission is to capture love in its purest form and turn it into timeless art you’ll cherish forever.

Atalie Day Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with on our wedding day. From our first contact, Atalie's communication style was professional yet personal, and she was always easily accessible to answer any questions we had. Her work is truly professional, beautiful, and feels like artwork - Atalie captured every special moment of our day, and her pictures will bring our perfect day back to life every time we look at them. I can't recommend Atalie enough - she is so easy to smile at and work with, and she went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was captured beautifully. Hire Atalie and you'll be thrilled with the results!

Huge thank you to Deb and the BMG staff. From our first tasting, the communication and coordination with everyone at Be My Guest was amazing. Deb really made planning our menu and rental needs so easy - she knew exactly what to ask and what details were needed - which shows how experienced she is in the field. The food was FANTASTIC. Weddings have the reputation of not having good food, but all of our guests raved about how good their meal was. When it comes to service, they are top notch. Servers coordinated to bring food out quickly, bartenders were friendly, and Deb always made sure my drink was full.

Grace Dreim Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Hanover, 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.

I can't gush over Grace enough. After postponing our wedding twice due to Covid, we abandoned our original plans of having a huge wedding at home in Kentucky and decided to have a small ceremony at the beach in Florida. After finding Grace through hashtags on Instagram, we DMed a bit and setup a call. After talking on the phone, I was sold! Grace was my go to girl for all things Florida. She had the BEST recommendations for other vendors and was ALWAYS just a text away if I had any questions or simply needed someone to share wedding plans with. Even though we didn't actually meet in person until the day of the ceremony, it felt as if we had been lifelong friends. She PERFECTLY captured our ceremony and I can't wait to plan another shoot with her when we visit again!!
