“We booked a private wine tour with Vineyard Voyages and had an absolutely fantastic experience. From start to finish, everything was easy, well organized, and genuinely relaxing. It was so nice being able to enjoy the wineries without anyone in our group having to worry about driving, directions, or keeping the day on schedule. The transportation was comfortable, the itinerary was thoughtfully planned, and the entire experience felt personal rather than like a cookie-cutter tour. We were able to relax, enjoy the scenery, spend time together, and experience some great Virginia wineries without feeling rushed. What really stood out was the attention to detail and how smoothly the entire day went. Vineyard Voyages took care of the logistics while still giving our group the freedom to enjoy the day at our own pace. I would absolutely recommend Vineyard Voyages for a private wine tour, especially for a birthday, celebration, or just a great day out with friends. We will definitely use them again. — Ken”

On my wedding day, she made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself — still me, just elevated in all the right ways. I would 100% work with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a makeup artist who is both technically skilled and genuinely wonderful to be around.

“I may be biased, as the bakery owner is my best friend and maid of honour, but I am not exaggerating when I say I have never received more compliments on anything as I received on my wedding desserts! The mini cheesecakes, cookies, and wedding cake were absolutely cleaned out! The only thing we got to bring home for ourselves was our personal wedding cake. Amanda is so accommodating--we had my mother in law bring in some traditional Indian desserts and Amanda was happy to add them to her display and even provided a beautiful serving dish for them! The wedding cake was so beautiful and DELICIOUS! My husband hyped it up so much to our guests that I started to worry it might not meet their expectations, but I was SO wrong. I would recommend Amanda for any event you may have coming up in your life. She is professional and reliable, and will work with you to make your dessert dreams come true down to the last detail!”

  • Serves Pentagon, DC

Working out of Arlington, VA, the Coordinated Collective provides day-of coordination for couples who have otherwise organized their own wedding. Aiding couples in the District of Columbia, Eastern Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia, the women of this company have a wealth of knowledge and experience organizing weddings in all sorts of venues and design. Owned by Ja’el Mendez, this team of experts brings the final touch needed to make sure you get hitched without a glitch! The initial planning is done by the clients, meaning that couples choose their own vendors and have the freedom to design their own wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Hiring The Coordinated Collective was by far the best decision we made throughout our entire wedding planning process. Every single person we interacted with was incredible, starting with Ja’el the owner, who was amazing from start to finish. She is warm, organized, thoughtful, and we felt see was genuinely invested in us. From our first conversation, we knew we were in great hands. Our day-of coordinators, Liz and Blair, were absolute stars. They just got us. Throughout the planning process, they provided steady guidance, answered every question, and—when we had concerns about potential issues with other vendors—gave us thoughtful, grounded advice and real encouragement. As we approached the wedding, Liz and Blair stepped in to manage the scheduling of the countless moving parts of our wedding day. They helped address issues before they became problems, and resolved most problems before they became crises. Their communication and stress management were unparalleled. They kept us informed whenever we needed to know something and shielded us from anything we didn’t need to be bothered with. I referred back to Blair’s meticulously documented recap emails from our planning meetings so many times during planning - no idea how anything would have gotten done without those! We always felt like they were firmly on our team. Their presence throughout those final weeks kept us calm and confident… despite the best attempts of some of our vendors and family! And then the wedding day itself… flawless. Truly flawless. They executed the day with precision, grace, and warmth. They handled countless details behind the scenes so seamlessly that we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment of our big day. At one point during dinner, I (the bride) leaned over to my mom to ask if she had floss because I had food stuck in my teeth, and before I could finish my sentence, Liz promptly whisked me away to a back room where I found myself suddenly in front of a mirror with a toothpick in hand! The level of support and preparation during the pre-wedding stages was above and beyond what we ever expected. Our families and friends are still raving about how fantastic they were on the day-of. We also decided to add on content creation with Teri late in the process, and we are SO glad we did. She was amazing—funny, kind, unobtrusive, and everywhere at once without ever feeling like a camera was in our faces. A couple of days after the wedding, we received our raw video dump, and it is worth every single penny. I’ve spent hours reliving the day through all the behind-the-scenes moments she captured with our guests, family, and wedding party. She didn’t miss a thing. We can’t wait to see the short-form content she creates, but honestly, the raw footage alone already exceeded our hopes. We are genuinely obsessed with this team. The Coordinated Collective is thoughtful, professional, communicative, creative, and deeply committed to making your wedding experience exceptional from beginning to end. If you’re considering hiring them, don’t hesitate for a second. They were truly the best decision we made, and we are endlessly grateful.”

“Three weeks before my wedding, I had a terrible makeup trial with another artist and went into panic mode. I stumbled across Alina on Instagram, and she replied right away — so kind, calm, and reassuring. She and Sveta fit me in for a hair and makeup trial that same week and spent over four hours making sure everything was absolutely perfect. They talked through every little detail and genuinely cared about getting my vision just right. Both Alina and Sveta went above and beyond; rearranging their schedules to allow more time at my venue and staying in touch in the days leading up to the wedding to fine-tune the final look. On the wedding day, they made me feel beautiful, calm, and completely myself. My mom also got her hair and makeup done for the first time ever and was absolutely glowing, she still can’t stop talking about how special they made her feel. I’m beyond grateful we found Alina and Sveta — they pour their hearts into their work. Their talent, professionalism, and heart truly made my day unforgettable.

“Working with Villa was one of the best choices we made as part of wedding planning. During the initial planning, she was responsive, thoughtful, and considerate of our vision. She understands that most people have never planned a wedding before helped us not only plan photos, but reorganize our reception to flow better. My husband and I are very photo shy, enough so that we debated on whether or not to even hire a photographer for the wedding. Villa was so great at directing interesting, natural poses that didn't feel forced or awkward in the moment. We opt-ed not to do an engagement shoot, but if we had to do it all over again, we absolutely would with Villa. During day of, Villa was extremely detailed and organized. She arrived early to the venue to capture photos and understand the space overall. She was very good about taking photos in a way that didn't interrupt the flow of events while navigating a fairly large and irregularly shaped venue. We received a great blend of editorial and photo-journalistic images that really captured the day beautifully. She has a great eye for wide shots, close up details, and artistic framing. Our wedding day started on a sunny day at noon and ended in the evening. Villa shot great photos throughout all the lighting changes during the day including many flash photography and low light shots after the sun had set. We had a great experience sharing our wedding day with Villa and think you would too!”

“We had a wonderful experience working with Best Face Forward for our wedding day makeup and hair styling. Kara was extremely prompt and informative during the planning process, making it simple to coordinate schedules and share inspiration photos. On the big day, Gina did an exceptional job listening to what we envisioned and making helpful recommendations to enhance our look. She was a true professional, and made adjustments based on feedback to ensure we felt confident and beautiful. The entire team brought out the best version of ourselves, helping us feel relaxed and radiant on our special day.

Hi! I'm Nina and I run Ivy & Quartz photography! I shot my first wedding in 2013, but my journey with photography began long before that. When I was about 10 years old, my dad gave me a camera and I quickly became obsessed. My intrigue continued to grow over the years and I went on to earn my BA in Studio Art , Photography, from the University of Virginia. After graduating I worked as a portrait photographer and decided to pursue and earn my MFA in Imaging Arts from the Rochester Institute of Technology.

“Nina did a fabulous job as the photographer for my and my husband’s wedding! From the beginning, she was very communicative and did a great job giving us advice on how to get the best possible photos. We wanted more candid shots of our wedding, and Nina delivered photos that were beautiful, natural, and artfully done. I actually received a remark from a guest, a former TV personality, that Nina’s understanding of how to get the best lighting was impeccable! In addition to being a warm and delightful person to work with, Nina has given us photos of our wedding we will be able to treasure for a lifetime. Do yourself a favor and hire her!”

“DJ Neal was an amazing choice for our recent wedding at the Rust Manor House in Leesburg, VA. From the beginning of the wedding process, DJ Neal was friendly, communicative, and thoughtful. He took into consideration some of our favorite artists and curated a wonderful playlist for our wedding day (i.e., ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception). We had quite a unique request being “early 2000s nostalgia” for the reception and he delivered! During couples portraits before the ceremony, I remember telling people how much I enjoyed the music he was playing. Additionally, during our reception in the outdoor tent, everyone was out of their seat and on the dance floor. As someone who considers themselves a homebody, he really brought me and my (now) husband out of our shells and created such a fun energy. The transitions between songs were so smooth and well executed. Additionally, he was a wonderful and well-spoken MC for our event. We really appreciated him for being part of our big day! Thank you so much, DJ Neal, I can’t wait to continue telling all of my friends and family members how amazing you were.”

Jeremy was very attentive to the desires of the bride and groom for the ceremony, and he performed magnificently. Jeremy was very responsive and organized during the planning process, and his experience and professionalism were evident during the process and on the big wedding day. He really connected with the bride, groom, and wedding party, making everything seamless and easy. So many guests commented on how efficient and smooth the ceremony was. Definitely recommend!”
