We hosted our wedding reception at Rocklands Farm and I was so happy with the experience! The barn has a rustic elegant ambiance and the surrounding farm and winery is picturesque. Their “corn crib” was ideal for appetizers and a fire pit while guests arrived before being seated, and a bonfire made a great outdoor space for a November wedding. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect. They worked seamlessly with the caterer Simply Fresh and our cake maker. Their day-of coordinator was great, keeping the timeline on schedule effortlessly. This was something I was very stressed about so having it go so smoothly was huge for me. Our photographer Jonalee Earles was able to set up lights etc. ahead of time. One unique aspect was the variety of table decor and signage provided, which I was able to look through and select ahead of time and which fit the ambiance beautifully. It looked amazing and took the pressure off us to bring our own decor. Rocklands made our wedding day truly special. I highly recommend it to any couple looking for a stress-free, gorgeous venue with great staff!

Awarded Best of Zola
The photographer, videographer, and photo booth was absolutely perfect and our guests had a blast! However, even after going through the work of submitting a Spotify play list and adding do not play songs or DJ played the wrong version of our first dance song (I checked and we had the correct version listed on our playlist we sent over), he also played songs from our do not play list to the point I, the bride, came over to ask if he had the wrong list. He admitted he was using songs from the do not play list as he was not paying attention. I would also like to note, though our wedding was more casual, our DJ was dressed in a sloppy manner. His shirt was half untucked from his pants, there were stains on his shirt and pants. Besides a few hiccups, direct Entertainment was wonderful to work with!

Isabella Vabre Beauty is a luxury bridal and special event makeup and hair team serving clients across the Washington DC area and beyond. Led by award-winning artist Isabella Vabre, our studio is known for creating elevated, camera-ready beauty that feels effortless, timeless, and confidently you. With experience shaped by fashion weeks, celebrity clients, and the signature Soft Glam style, our team delivers a personalized, high-touch experience grounded in artistry, professionalism, and calm, supportive service. We believe in making every client feel elevated, radiant, and fully taken care of.

I cannot recommend Isabella Vabre Beauty enough. I’m someone who is very outdoorsy and almost never does hair or makeup, so I walked into this experience knowing basically nothing — and Isabella made me feel completely comfortable from the very start. She is incredibly responsive, professional, and so kind. She has a calming presence that immediately puts you at ease, and she listens closely to what you want (even if you’re not sure how to describe it!). 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. If you’re considering booking — do it. You’ll be glad you did.

Vineyard Voyages provides private group transportation and customized wine-country experiences throughout Northern Virginia and Loudoun County. We help couples and wedding groups plan bachelorette celebrations, bridal showers, wedding-weekend outings, winery excursions, and other private group experiences. Vineyard Voyages operates a 27-passenger executive shuttle and coordinates transportation, timing, winery itineraries, and group logistics so everyone can travel together and enjoy Virginia wine country without needing a designated driver.

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

We worked with Francisco as our day-of wedding coordinator at the Josephine Butler Parks Center, and we cannot recommend him highly enough! From the moment we started working with him, he was incredibly thorough, organized, and clearly genuinely invested in making our wedding day as smooth and joyful as possible. In the months leading up to the wedding, Francisco helped walk us through the big checklist items for planning a wedding, ensuring we didn’t overlook a single detail while always being respectful of our choices and vision. His communication over email was always timely and clear, and our planning phone calls were always productive, efficient, and fun! One of the most valuable things he did was create a comprehensive vendor packet that centralized all final details—this was a game-changer! We didn’t have to worry about keeping track of updates or managing version control, as he seamlessly handled all communication and coordination with our vendors. His understanding of the venue layout, the timing with our photographer, and the logistics of transporting wedding items made the final decisions stress-free. We trusted him completely, and every detail turned out exactly as we’d hoped—or better! When it came time for the wedding weekend itself, Francisco expertly ran our rehearsal, navigating family dynamics with calm professionalism and making sure everyone felt comfortable and confident. On the wedding day, Francisco was a calm and reassuring presence, quietly in charge and gracefully keeping everything on track. As someone who’s very Type A and typically likes to stay on top of everything, I was amazed by how much I was able to relax and simply enjoy the day because I knew Francisco would be handling it all. Thanks to him, we could focus on celebrating with our loved ones, knowing everything was in the best hands. If you’re looking for someone who will bring warmth, expertise, and a true sense of calm to your wedding day, Francisco is your person. He made our wedding a dream come true, and we wouldn’t change a single thing. (Photos courtesy of Paperbird Photography!)

I was delighted to work with Geraldine and an incredible team of vendors who made this experience truly one for the books. Her vision came to life flawlessly, and throughout the process, she was always on point with every detail. Most importantly, she gave us the creative freedom to develop new ideas, ensuring this styled shoot was nothing short of exceptional. Working with Geraldine was an absolute pleasure. Her expertise and meticulous attention to detail will undoubtedly be a key asset on your wedding day. If you’re considering hiring her, don’t overthink it—Geraldine is the one you want by your side! Highly recommend!

We hired Jeremy to DJ our wedding in September 2018. We are avid (and opinionated) music fans, so this was one of the most important parts of our day. Jeremy's pre-wedding process was efficient, informative, collaborative, and fun. Given all of the information we provided him, he absolutely nailed the vibe we had in mind, and he played an expertly curated and mixed set that was a hit with everyone at the wedding. The dance floor was positively packed all night. Additionally, Jeremy was punctual, courteous, accommodating, and charismatic. What else can you ask for in a wedding DJ?

This is my second time scheduling through Best Face Forward for hair and makeup for my younger son’s bar mitzvah. The first time I scheduled was 2.5 years ago for my older son’s bar mitzvah. I was able to schedule through the Best Face Forward website and scheduling was easy and detailed with what information is needed.  Natalie was the artist assigned to me and met me at the hotel where the event was at to do my hair and makeup. She was on time and was invited into my room. It took her about 10 minutes to set up and she started on my hair and finished with my makeup. Natalie listed to how I wanted my makeup/hair and delivered! I felt like a movie star and received compliments all night long.  Kara is honestly a gem and you should look no where else for your hair and makeup needs!

I absolutely loved working with Wendy and her team. They were incredible, kind, and made the morning of my wedding a breeze. My makeup and hair was stunning, and all of my bridesmaids and the moms were thrilled with how they looked on wedding day. I still can’t get over how beautiful I felt on the wedding and my hair and makeup held up great. Communication throughout the whole process was super easy, they were super responsive and accommodating.
