My partner and I were recently had a Halloween wedding here, and I cannot recommend Hanover Tavern enough. Having an all-inclusive venue was so extremely helpful and took off a lot of stress when planning. The location is beautiful, especially if you're planning a Fall wedding. We rented the Coach House for our wedding, and had our ceremony in the courtyard. The Coach House has a nice rustic warm charm while still feeling modern. The history and theater of the venue is so cool and unique. They also recently installed a nice patio with a firepit and other heating elements. So our guests could mingle there comfortably in the chilly fall evening. Price was extremely fair, and there are many different options to fit your budget. We also felt extremely welcome as gay couple. The food is fantastic!!! All our guests were raving about the food. They have a wide range of options available. And the chef is extremely accommodating, we had a seasonal dessert and requested it again for our wedding. They knocked it out of the park. But the staff is really what makes Hanover Tavern special. Krissy, the day of coordinator, was so helpful, down to earth, and fun to work with! My family and wedding party loved her. and we always looked forward to our planning meetings. She was also extremely flexible, and helped make accommodations for our themed wedding. She was also very conscious of my Grandmother, who is getting quite up there in age, but still wanted to take part of all the fun! Krissy assisted her and really made her experience special. The event staff are extremely attentive and friendly, and its nice seeing the same group of people throughout the day. They maneuvered our guests around expertly, and even helped transition some of our decorations from outside to the reception without us even asking. They always have your wedding experience in mind, and will go above and beyond to make it special. Even when we had a costume piece break, without a second of hesitation, the staff whisked it away and gave it back to me fixed. I was incredibly touched. Shout out to Don the bartender, he was also excellent and brought an awesome energy to the event that my guests loved. I would recommend Hanover Tavern again and again. They really made our wedding something special :)

Candice did a wonderful job appeasing any concerns I had before booking with them for my wedding for both hair and makeup services for me and 2 bridal party members. During my consult Brittany was also able to ease my skins/ makeup concerns. I felt so at ease throughout the entire process with Society 11:11 – from inquiry to when I was sitting in the makeup chair on my wedding day! Brittany helped fulfill exactly what my vision for my bridal look was, and it was everything AND MORE! I felt like a princess especially since my wedding dress was a ball gown as well! I would not recommend ANYONE ELSE for your makeup and hair needs. My two bridal party members also spoke very highly of both Brittany and Leilani.

I have nothing but good things to say about Seema as both a person and a makeup artist. As a woman of color and someone who rarely wears makeup, I was really anxious about booking a makeup artist for my wedding. From our first conversation to the bridal trial and then the wedding day, Seema was responsive, warm, transparent, flexible, and detail-oriented. She is a true artist who made everyone (bridesmaids, my mom, and my mother-in-law) look beautiful while highlighting each person's unique features. Seema has a calming presence and went above and beyond (even helping us to get dressed in our Indian outfits and providing me with a touch-up kit for later). She cares deeply about her clients and takes time to understand your unique skin type and desired look. For example, I tend to sweat a lot and was concerned about my makeup running and/or looking shiny. To my pleasant surprise, my makeup stayed put and looked fresh throughout the night without feeling heavy or cakey. Book with Seema today. I promise that you won't regret it!

Awarded Best of Zola
French Honey Hospitality was absolutely amazing for our wedding. We had some hiccups in the planning process regarding bartending services and deciding what we wanted to do for this. We worked with Maegan, she came in and answered any and all questions we had and quickly sold us on her bartending services with how kind and caring she was about our special day. We spoke with Maegan multiple times regarding specialty cocktails to fit our theme and she absolutely nailed every signature drink based off the creative names we gave her. Her imagination for cocktails was astounding and you can tell she really cares about the drinks she prepares and is willing to push the envelope for your special drinks. On wedding day, Maegan was very friendly towards everyone and was very professional. She showed up early enough to have everything prepped and ready to go by cocktail hour. She also has her own bar that looks stunning and really adds to the vibes to the cocktail hour bar. We felt that Maegan and her husband took care of our guests and ensured that they had a great time. They made a beautiful menu to display all the drinks being provided which helps the guests know what to drink! I remember one of my favorite moments of the night after I had multiple drinks, Maegan hand delivered some liquid IV and water bottles to me which was very much appreciated. If you are looking for bartending services, I cannot recommend French Honey Hospitality enough. Maegan was always very responsive and receptive to our vision. They have a variety of extra services that can elevate your wedding to the next level. Maegan was an absolute pleasure to work with and we loved every aspect of the bartending services provided for us on our special day. You would be putting your trust in the right people with French Honey Hospitality.

When Annie and I booked him, we had full intentions to have him do our wedding. We put down the deposit, and then things went sideways financially. We unfortunately had to go back to him and cancel. My fiancé was devastated, so I reached out to him, and asked if he could do a quick hour shoot, like an engagement session. He was very quick to reply, and get us on the schedule. He was so kind and understanding, I truly wish we could have him for our wedding, but I am grateful he was willing to work with us. I know my wife-to-be and I are going to cherish those pictures forever.

Let’s just talk about it. You spend months (sometimes years) planning your wedding - the colors, the outfits, the chargers, every little detail. But the place people gather, meet, and spend the most time? The bar. And somehow that’s the part people overlook. A great bartender sets the tone for the whole night. At Cheers, we actually care. We take time to get to know you, show up ready to celebrate with your people, and make sure the bar adds to the energy of the night - not takes away from it. Your wedding deserves that. Love y’all.

We had an incredible experience working with Hali as our day-of coordinator for our wedding at the John Marshall Ballroom. With only about 50 days to plan a wedding for 240 guests—filled with many traditional elements—Hali was an absolute lifesaver. She helped us stay organized, took so much off our plate, and allowed us to focus on other aspects of our big day, knowing that she had everything under control. Hali was always on top of things, proactive, and incredibly sweet. She truly went out of her way to make sure everything ran smoothly, and her warm and professional personality made the entire process enjoyable.

Joseph and Rob of Riverwood Designs are the best in the business. I booked Riverwood Designs for my May 2024 wedding, at The Maine of Williamsburg, for bridal party flowers and floral table arrangements, as well as a Day-Of Coordination package. Booking Joseph and Rob was one of the best decisions I made during my 2-year long wedding planning process. 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.

The ceremony she led was truly beautiful, with a personal touches from our love story that made it feel so special and unique to us. April was extremely professional, responsive, and I really appreciated our detailed phone calls and texts in the weeks before the wedding. She even captured some wonderful photos of our ceremony that we weren't expecting but were thrilled to have as keepsakes. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant to help make our wedding day so memorable.

Working a wedding and knowing that Moy is going to be photographing the day is the icing on the cake as a makeup artist! He is friendly, edits the photos beautifully (honoring the makeup application as the brides want to be presented) and is cautious about lighting and any potential flashback. All the things a makeup artist could ask for :’) Weddings are a vendor team effort to bring the couple the most seamless and beautiful day they could ask for, and Moy is simply the best to work with!

I've had the privilege of working alongside Armando a couple times under both my company and others, and it is a great experience every single time! He is fun, easy to talk to, upbeat, not to mention quite skilled at his craft too. I am almost always behind the camera and not in front of it, but I can tell that his personality and presence makes couples comfortable in front of the lens whether they're used to it or not, which is so incredibly valuable, your footage will always come out looking better if you are comfortable. Added bonus - he is tall, so he'll get those high angles that not everybody can manage to get, haha! I highly recommend him, no question

The second we saw Dover Hall online, and then especially in person, we knew it was the venue for us. The staff, the facility, the food, the service, the attention to detail... all flawless! Twelve hours at this place is no where near enough. We loved our experience with Dover Hall from start to finish. The planning was seamless, the service was top-tier, the attention to detail was impeccable... and so much more. We are still in awe of our wedding day spent at this spectacular venue. Our friends, family, and wedding team still go on about what a day it was! If we could do it all over again (which I wish we could), we'd do it all at Dover Hall!

Ethos Floral Events was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. From our very first interaction, they demonstrated a prompt, personal, and thoughtful communication style that put us at ease. 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. We were thrilled with the final result and received so many compliments from our guests on the beautiful florals. Ethos Floral Events helped to make our wedding day feel warm, romantic, and utterly unique. We highly recommend them to any couple looking for a talented, personable, and passionate floral designer.

Hi, I am Melanie Cooper. I am an intimate wedding photographer based in Richmond, Virginia. I love everything about this amazing city. But most of all I love the people. Being a photographer has given me the opportunity to meet so many people in the area. Hopefully that will include you!

Would choose Melanie again and again. I actively recommend her to friends and acquaintances who say they’re engaged. She is super friendly, upbeat and good at her job. She blends in well and there are pictures that I don’t even remember her being there for. We had our photo shoot time, our candid time and I feel like she allowed the day to run how we wanted it to while also getting all the pictures we wanted.

I'm a dreamer, a maker, a memory curator with a love for the written word. I have a master's in laughter, and am a world renown mess maker. I’m a wannabe world changer, a devoted pray-er, and an avid forgiver. I’m a barefoot kitchen dancer, a hammock reader and sun seeker, an accident-prone adventurer... and hopefully, when I look back, a professional life-rider and full-fledged compassion giver.

We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about our florist, Jessica Samsing of Fleurish and Bloom. From the very beginning, we loved that we were able to meet her and really get to know her before booking. It never felt like a transaction for a service, and more like collaborating with a friend to bring a dream vision to life. I can be pretty particular when it comes to details, so finding someone we trusted completely to execute our vision was really important to us. She absolutely nailed it. She listened carefully, offered thoughtful guidance, and ultimately brought our dream to life in the most beautiful way. Not only was everything stunning, but she and her team were also incredibly respectful of our budget, which we appreciated so much. Throughout the process she was approachable, kind, and genuinely invested in making our wedding day special. You can truly feel how much she cares about her couples. If you’re looking for a florist who is talented, thoughtful, and a joy to work with, we cannot recommend her enough. She made the entire experience feel personal and meaningful, and we are so grateful for the beauty she created for our 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.
