“The Flanders was a wonderful experience from start to finish!! We got married on New Year’s Eve and we will not be able to top any NYE to follow! Lisa and Molly were so great to work with! Molly was great with communicating all the details and answering all our questions! Lisa walked us through everything from food to table settings to order of the night. The food was PHENOMENAL! Everyone raved and still raves about the variety of food, the quality, the cocktail hour and ending the night with Taste of the Boardwalk. If you go hungry, it’s your own fault! The service there was second to none. Joanne and her staff were wonderful and were always anticipating our thoughts. We stayed at Flanders during that weekend. The Promenade suites made it so easy to get ready and access the Ballrooms. Our guests and bridal party stayed in the regular suites and loved each room! Highly recommend going with their list of recommended vendors, it makes everything so much easier. Getting married at The Flanders was always my dream and I cannot recommend it more to others!!”

The Ocean City Yacht Club, established in 1901, is rich in both history and tradition. We have one of the most active and competitive sailing programs in the Mid Atlantic region including bay and offshore racing. The 2023 season marks the 122nd year that the Ocean City Yacht Club (OCYC) has been in existence, an organization steeped in family values and tradition. The Club has a multitude of activities for members to enjoy: sunset meals on the bay, Saturday night theme parties, bridge, golf, fishing, and sailing/boating events. There are innumerable events to socialize with friends and meet new people. Members can also look forward to the continuation of philanthropic endeavors the Club has supported over the past years, such as Fishing for Kids in June and the OCYC foundation. These events demonstrate the Club’s commitment to worthwhile causes benefitting the community.

“At the end of my wedding, someone said to me, "most weddings are boring, yours was fun." This is because the Ocean City Yacht Club does such a SPECTACULAR job at helping you have the best day ever. We held our ceremony in the tent to the side of the club, and it was beautiful. Afterwards, our guests congregated to the back deck where they enjoyed the unbelievable views of the Ocean City Bay as they sipped cocktails, enjoyed hors d'evours, and took photos on the water. Every family took their Christmas card photo because the backdrop of the bay in the early evening was so stunning. After entrances/speeches, we sat down for dinner, and the food was incredible. The club prides itself on the catering by Nobil caterers, and it DOES NOT DISAPPOINT. It goes far beyond what anyone expects from a wedding venue. After a great meal, half of our guests went back outside to continue enjoying the sunset on the bay and the other half of the began the dancing inside. Everybody was having a great time. Planning this wedding was a breeze because OCYC provided us with a list of vendors who all did a great job and knew the yacht club's timing, entrances, expectations, etc. Bill, who is the head chef AND somehow has the time to coordinate all of the weddings at the Yacht club, expertly explained what would and would not work to ensure that the day ran smoothly. An added bonus is that the yacht club allows the bridal party to get ready upstairs, which is a beautiful space with a porch that opens up to the water. No one would ever guess this, but the Ocean City Yacht Club is a surprisingly budget-friendly venue. My parent's friends asked if we spent 100,000 on this wedding, and it was definitely no where close to that. This venue is BYOB (meaning you can hire bartenders and serve your guests liquor, but the yacht club does not specifically provide the alcohol). This cut costs down tremendously compared to other similar venues. This wedding location is a hidden gem in Ocean City, and we had the perfect day!”

We handle everything from personal flowers and centerpieces to ceremony installations, reception décor, styling, setup, repurposing, and breakdown. Our goal is to make the whole space feel connected, not like a bunch of separate floral pieces. We love taking a couple’s ideas, Pinterest boards, random screenshots, and “I don’t really know how to explain it” moments and turning them into something that actually feels like them.

“The Floral Eden brought our wedding vision to life in ways we didn't even expect. From our first conversation, the team responded to every question and concern right away, and they truly understood what we wanted for our big day. They created the most stunning centerpieces that sat on each table, and candles were placed throughout the venue to set the perfect mood. When we walked into our reception, the combination of florals and candlelight made everything feel absolutely magical and romantic. The quality of their work was exceptional, and we felt like we got incredible value for what they delivered. We can't recommend The Floral Eden highly enough to any couple planning their wedding.”

Hitched! By Harper is where unforgettable ceremonies meet authentic storytelling.

Since 2010, I’ve helped couples of all backgrounds feel seen, celebrated, and totally at ease on their big day. Every ceremony is written from scratch to reflect your vibe, your values, and your story—not a template in sight.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant for our wedding! Kevin was the first officiant we met with, and we knew right away that he was the right choice. He did such an amazing job making our ceremony feel incredibly personal and meaningful. So many of our guests told us afterward that it was one of the best wedding ceremonies they had ever attended. We even had multiple people ask us how we knew him because the ceremony felt so personal that they assumed he must have known us for years! He made everything feel completely unique to us and told our story in such a natural, genuine way. It was heartfelt, personal, and still had the perfect amount of humor. We’re so grateful for how special he made our ceremony and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for an officiant!”

“This is what dreams are made of. When I was a little girl, I had big dreams about what my future wedding would look like. As I got older and realized how much everything costs, I started to think my dream wedding would stay just that—a dream. But one thing never changed: I always wanted to get married in a little white chapel and walk down the aisle to the sound of a violin. Petya made that dream come true. From the moment I first reached out to her, we instantly connected. I knew, without a doubt, that no matter where we ended up getting married, she had to be a part of it. I’d listen to her music on YouTube and just melt. She’s cheerful yet calming, incredibly talented, and truly helped put me at ease throughout the process. The morning of my wedding was stressful, but Petya texted me with encouragement, lifting my spirits and getting me excited for the day ahead. Guests even told me how beautiful the atmosphere was as they waited for my arrival—all because of the ambiance she created through her music. As the church doors opened and I saw my soon-to-be husband standing at the altar, the sound of Petya’s violin made it feel like I was walking into a dream. I couldn’t see anyone else—it was as if her melody was wrapping around just the two of us. It might sound dramatic, but we had a very Christian ceremony, and we asked her to play worship music. It made the moment feel sacred, like God’s presence was truly among us. At the end of the ceremony, I ran up to her and couldn’t help but gush about how incredible she was. She gave us our fairytale moment.”

“Being a bridesmaid can be stressful but this team made everything so smooth. They were friendly and really fun to be around, which made the photo sessions enjoyable instead of awkward. I loved how they gave direction without being pushy. The group photos turned out amazing, everyone looks so natural and happy. They also caught so many candid shots of us laughing which I will treasure forever. The video is incredible too, and I love how much of the bridal party was included. I honestly didn’t expect to be featured much but they gave us so many special moments. I was super impressed with their professionalism and warmth.”

Being able to look back, remember the great laughs, and reminisce a particular night is what we all look forward to. Our goal is to help everyone remember one of the best nights by telling your story through our eyes. There is no better compliment than for you to show your loved ones what happened through one of the best days of your lives.

“My husband and I cannot recommend Victor enough! From the moment we met him, he felt more like a friend than a vendor. On our wedding day, Victor made us and all of our guests feel completely comfortable. He had everyone laughing, which created such a fun and relaxed atmosphere. His energy was truly amazing. Victor also was always readily available to chat whenever we had questions or needed guidance. He made us feel supported every step of our journey. Victor really went above and beyond in every way — including surprising us with our wedding gallery as a Christmas gift, which completely blew us away and meant so much to us. His photos are absolutely stunning: crystal clear, beautifully captured, and full of genuine emotion. Every single person who has seen our photos is beyond impressed. If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only insanely talented but also kind, thoughtful, and a joy to be around, Victor is hands down the best. We are so grateful we chose him and will cherish these photos forever!”

“From our first meeting on their farm to the wedding day, it was such a pleasure working with Ulana and the Flower Barn at Locust Pointe team. Their communication style was professional, approachable, and amazing. The quality of their work was truly unique, whimsical, and gorgeous - their breathtaking florals made the venue incredible and there wasn’t a guest who didn’t ask who the florist was. Even the venue manager was so impressed that he made it a point to get their business card to refer them to others. They were so cooperative, knowledgeable, and professional to work with, and Ulana's creativity and talent is absolutely unmatched!”

We’re Mark and Brittany Edman, the husband-and-wife team behind This Insane Idea Photography. Brittany was the one who encouraged Mark to take his lifelong love of photography full time. It sounded like an insane idea at the time, but documenting weddings quickly became the work we love most. Mark photographs the day as it unfolds: the big emotions, the quiet moments, and everything in between. Brittany brings 20 years of hospitality experience to helping couples feel cared for and keeping the day flowing. Together, we get to know you and the people you love so you can feel comfortable, stay present, and enjoy your wedding. Our approach is simple: nothing added, nothing taken away. Your story, captured as it felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Mark and Brittany are truly exceptional at what they do. My husband and I are not typically in front of a camera, but Mark made us instantly comfortable in a way that allowed him to truly capture the moment between us instead of feeling like models posing for a job. We had a small wedding with no formal wedding planner or runner for the day, but Brittany and Mark helped everything to go smoothly, and we truly couldn’t have done it without them. Beyond all that, the images are truly breathtaking. Mark has an intrinsic ability to scan a space and find the most beautiful piece of it. I have never seen the inside of a train station look so magical! If you choose This Insane Idea for your special day, you will not be disappointed!”
