Cheers Mobile Bartending 
Rating: 4.8 (19 reviews)
Richmond, VA
  • Bar services & beverages
  • Starts at $300

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Cheers! Our bartenders were amazing—friendly, professional, and a joy to work with. They poured wonderful drinks and brought a cute, cohesive aesthetic with their glassware and setup. They provided all the mixers while we supplied the alcohol, which made everything seamless and easy. We also provided an extra bar, and they were so accommodating in working with us so we could use the thrifted bar my mom and I found. It was perfect having two bars—one on the lawn and one under the tent—which helped everything flow smoothly. They were very open and kind, and even attended our wedding walkthrough, which we truly loved and appreciated. Our guests had a great experience, and everything ran so well thanks to their team.

Hali and Leila made our wedding day run so seamlessly at a non-traditional venue. Hali was fantastic to work with prior to the wedding and listened to and executed exactly what we envisioned. We were truly able to step away from the operations and be fully present with each other, our families, and friends. Everything was set up beautifully and tended throughout the evening, and I had no idea when vendors arrived, setup, and left. I even learned after the fact that they ingeniously fixed the ceremony decor that kept falling over in the wind. They also managed to run a magic dessert table that was constantly full despite so many people taking cupcakes. I'm confident there are multiple other events that happened without my knowledge that made the day happen as it did. Hali and Leila were amazing to work with and if you are considering booking them for your wedding, do it!!

Awarded Best of Zola
DJ Anthony Bryant (aka DJ Ant-Boogie) was absolutely amazing and such an important part of our wedding experience. When planning a wedding, there are a million things to worry about. DJ Ant Boogie is not one of them. He was so nice and so patient and professional with us during the planning, and an absolute joy to work with during the actual wedding. We had such little direction for him and gave the most vague descriptions of our friends and ourselves and the general vibe and he crafted the most perfect wedding playlist I have ever heard. All night people were complimenting us on our amazing song choices (all DJ ant boogie) and the dance floor was alive literally all night. He also did such a wonderful job with all of our special requests and announcements and all the “scripted wedding stuff” that happens during a wedding. Everyone had such an amazing time and he was such an integral part of that. DJ Ant Boogie, thank you so much for such a wonderful experience. We had a perfect night, and we are so grateful.

Awarded Best of Zola
I first heard about Completely Captured when my husband (then fiancé) booked Elizabeth for our engagement session. We loved the photos so much that we knew we had to book her again for our elopement. Elizabeth’s communication and planning were exceptional. She was incredibly flexible with dates, understanding our need to finalize locations closer to the ceremony. We scheduled a phone call to discuss our vision, and she beautifully captured the inspiration photos I shared. She also helped plan the photography timeline and was proactive with poses and lighting suggestions, which I greatly appreciated. On our elopement day, Elizabeth was professional, friendly, and prepared with all the necessary equipment. She made us and our family, including our french bulldog, feel completely comfortable and even stayed longer to ensure we got all the shots we wanted. The final gallery exceeded all expectations. She even shared sneak peeks the same day, which was such a thoughtful touch. Our family loved the photos so much that we made albums for them, and everyone kept commenting on her incredible work. What stood out most was how personable Elizabeth was—she felt like more than a photographer; she became a friend. I wholeheartedly recommend her for any wedding or elopement. She’s a talented professional and a joy to work with!

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).

I’m Jasmine, A Richmond, Virginia based makeup artist dedicated to enhancing the natural beauty of those I’ve had the pleasure of working with, and those I’ve yet to meet. What began as a love for makeup through creativity and self-expression has grown into a meaningful career centered around connection and helping others feel like the best versions of themselves.

I had the pleasure of having Jasmine do my bridal makeup and the makeup for my bridal party. Immediately from our consultation and trial at Melt, Jasmine was welcoming and calm, yet also driven and confident in her skills. She took the time to know what exactly I was and was not looking for. She took note of things I was particular about (filling in my eyebrows) and ensured they were exactly how I wanted before moving on. She even fielded my never ending questions about skin care since she is so knowledgeable! On my wedding day, Jasmine was promptly on time and a calm presence that helped keep me at ease. Jasmine was happy to make any changes throughout the makeup application process with no issue (I was difficult and changed my lip color 3 times). My entire bridal party still continues to rave about Jasmine’s work and claim it was the best professional makeup they’ve had. We all felt like enhanced versions of ourselves—it was exactly what we were looking for. The small kit of to-go and touch up items that Jasmine provided each of us ensured our makeup looked perfect the entire night. I would highly recommend Jasmine for any and all bridal/formal makeup services! Melt is lucky to have her.

Taking photos since 2016, I lives to document the stories of every lovely human I get to meet. My ideal clients are laugh-loving, sun-chasing, care-freers (bonus points if you're a foodie too).

She creates a space where couples feel like themselves, guests feel celebrated, and, honestly, where I can just breathe because I know everything is being captured perfectly. It’s rare to find someone who blends professionalism with genuine warmth and creativity, but Chayil does it every single time. She’s more than a vendor to me. She’s a partner in making magic and bringing dreams to life. If you’re looking for someone who will turn your wedding memories into art, look no further.

The quality of their work was simply stunning - the champagne sheet cake, strawberry and black and white cupcakes were all absolutely delicious and our lemon blueberry cutting cake was divine. We couldn't choose between the amazing flavors, as everything we tried at Pearl's was to die for. Even the vegan and gluten-free options were incredible.

A photographer is easily one of the most important vendors of a wedding day. Without the memories and the photos, it’s hard to just remember every little thing. Our photos and all the details are so beautiful and so lovingly captured. Erinne and her second shooter did an amazing job capturing everything and corralling my large family for portraits, as well as our wild bunch during dance time. I will forever treasure the images she captured and want to print them all if that tells you anything! It’s amazing how they captured so many moments during such a busy and quick day. She is such a sweet and kind human and does amazing work too. Thank you Erinne!

Groovin' Gourmets 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
Richmond, VA
  • Caterer
  • Starts at $12,500

Expert Catering is More Than Good Food! Groovin' Gourmets promises exceptional Service from the moment you pick up the phone. You can expect a polished, professional experience from our arrival at your event through to breakdown and cleanup. Our diverse menus are designed to satisfy even the most discriminating palates.

I couldn’t recommend Groovin Gourmet enough; From the start of planning to final execution, plating, and service, Groovin’ absolutely killed every single element. Kaylyn and team handled our June 5 rehearsal dinner and delivered seamlessly. We had a wonderful tasting in the months prior, with full plating and presentation, welcome Champagne, and even a reserved parking spot. They carefully accounted for all rental selections and allergy restrictions, ensuring no detail was overlooked. On top of this, the dinner was held in quite a narrow arbor, making for a more challenging service. Once again- not a single detail was missed and the team handled any obstacle with ease. And most importantly, the food was incredible- they listened carefully to our vision, proposed a tailored menu, and brought it to life in the most perfect way possible. We are so appreciative of Groovin’ Gourmet and thank you, especially, to Kaylyn! Our wedding weekend was that much more memorable because of you!

My husband and I cannot say enough about The Boathouse at Rocketts Landing! From the first tour back in August 2024 until our wedding in November 2025, they were absolutely fantastic. We worked with Bonnie initially, but Alli was our official day of coordinator. The price is worth it for everything you get - venue, staff, food, bar, setup, and so much more. Alli and her staff were amazing every step of the way, and they truly made our wedding day as special, easy, and memorable it could be. The photos I am attaching are from Ivy and Lace Photo!
