The Chesapeake Bay Golf Club was a wonderful venue for our wedding day! The staff went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. We had a beautiful outdoor ceremony next to the historic manor house, cocktail hour in the Players Grille, followed by a stunning reception in the Chantilly Ballroom.

We love brainstorming high-energy, modern details, executing every logistical "must-have, and we are your dedicated partners in creating a stress-free experience.

Veronica and James are absolutely incredible. They made planning our wedding so easy and kept everything so organized. All of our check-in calls kept everything on track and made everything less overwhelming. On our actual wedding day, they made sure everything was handled and kept everything under control. Mind you, this was managing two wedding ceremonies in one day - one traditional Vietnamese and one American style. I never thought I would need a wedding coordinator, but it is the best investment we made in our entire wedding. We still think of James and Veronica as our friends and keep in touch. Who knew that meeting two people at a wedding expo would make such a difference in our lives and our wedding story.

I was looking for a hair and makeup artist on Zola and I came across Cheryl’s page. Her easy approachability, warmth, and cheerfulness put me at ease with our initial chat over text messages. I enjoyed chatting with her be it over phone calls, text messages, or voice messages. Cheryl was very accommodating when I had to reschedule my trials and she always tried her best to respond to my texts in a timely manner. Cheryl understood the assignment and my makeup trial went very well. She even had a press on nail in her kit and saved my day! Although I was a little nervous after my hair trial didn’t seem to go well, Cheryl assured me that she had understood my hair well and that I need not worry for the wedding day. She was open to all the feedback I gave her. And She delivered. Cheryl was on point with how I wanted my makeup and hair. I didn’t believe perfection existed in this world until I experienced Cheryl’s art. I felt like a queen on my wedding day. My bridesmaids had a bit of a rough time with their makeup artist and had become upset but Cheryl came through (all of them have different skin tones) and made sure all my girls were happy to start the day! I think Cheryl is one of the best vendors I got and I’m so glad to have worked with her. I highly recommend her.

BATHrooms On A Roll is a woman veteran owned small business. My husband and I got married on the beautiful Eastern Shore and struggled with finding a restroom trailer company that would travel to our location or wouldn't be an eye sore. Even signing a contract, we were delivered the wrong trailer and unable to make any changes. Having the last name, BATH, we decided to go into the BATHroom business with the promise that this will not happen to another bride and groom.

Bathrooms on a Roll was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, they were very easy to get ahold of, professional, and personable, making the entire process a breeze. Their attention to detail and the quality of their restrooms was truly impressive. They were readily available throughout the planning process, and we were thrilled with how seamlessly they contributed to making our special day perfect. We will definitely be using Bathrooms on a Roll again in the future!

Alliyah was fantastic! We hired The Bridal Bestie for day of/month of coordination at Bohemia Overlook, and it is one of the best decisions I made! As soon as we met on a video chat and at the walkthrough, I felt immediately more calm about the wedding process. I'm a big planner, but with Alliyah, I could trust her to bring the vision to life and she truly did! We even had a huge storm hit the venue about 2 hours before the ceremony and she handled all the decor and details that were outside, moving locations for the cocktail hour, and even coordinating with all the vendors about adjusting the timeline. You wouldn't even know that anything happened. Thank you so much! -Johanna & Trace

We got married at Chesapeake Bay Beach Club on May 17, 2025, and had the most stellar experience we could have hoped for. From the very beginning, we were blown away. We attended one of their Saturday open houses for our initial tour and were immediately impressed - not just by the stunning waterfront venue and all the flexible, thoughtfully designed event spaces, but also by how knowledgeable, professional, and confident the entire team was. We left that tour knowing we’d be in the best hands and we were absolutely right. Every step of the planning process was seamless - from the delicious food and drink tasting, to room blocks at their on-site inn, to spa services, to vendor coordination and final timeline planning. Everything was organized, stress-free, and incredibly well executed. Samantha, our coordinator, was truly a rockstar. She answered every one of my many (many!) questions with patience and clarity, and always helped ease any nerves I had in the weeks leading up to our wedding day. Her responsiveness and calm presence made all the difference. The wedding day went absolutely flawlessly. Everything ran like clockwork. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing—every vendor knew where to go and when to be there, and all the details we’d planned came together perfectly. I truly got to just show up and have the best day of my life. The team at CBBC knows what they’re doing, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. If you're looking for a venue that combines stunning views with expert-level coordination and service, look no further.

  • Serves Rising Sun, MD

What excites me most as a photographer is finding ways to uniquely capture your story. My goal is to bring out the aspects of you that resonate most-- whether you find that in fun & laughter, or in quiet & stillness. I see myself more as a director than a photographer, always opting for prompts over poses. Through this, I find myself capturing stills that emanate movement and life-- the kind of thing you see in the movies.

Everyone I know has been asking me who my photographer was for my wedding! His work speaks for itself! But I’d like to add that my experience working with Ben was just as amazing as his photos! From the start Ben was quick to reply, confident, caring and skilled. Ben helped make my pinterest board come to life and I couldn’t be happier! He was organized, easy to get in contact with and happy to help; that is everything a bride needs while planning a wedding! On wedding day when my coordinator moved timelines around and things did not go as planned, Ben adapted calmly and efficiently. I never had to worry that any photos would be missed. He managed to work around a changing schedule and remained confident and professional. I couldn’t be happier with my experience and the results! These are photos that will last a lifetime! We are beyond impressed and especially glad we book with him!

We were married at Golden Sands on August 14, 2026, and honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place to celebrate our day. Our ceremony was held on the Golden Sands private beach, followed by our reception in the atrium on the 22nd floor. The atrium sells itself. It is absolutely breathtaking, and our guests were in awe the entire night looking out over the ocean. The view alone is something people will never forget. But more importantly, we’re really here to tell you about Autumn, the wedding planner at Golden Sands. Our wedding day would NOT have been what it was without her. Somewhere along the way, we left Golden Sands with a forever friend and someone we know we will never forget. From start to finish, Autumn was ON IT. God called her for this position. Every crazy vision we had, she somehow figured out how to make it happen. And she didn’t just do the typical wedding planner responsibilities..she went above and beyond in ways we never could have expected. She personally ordered and delivered Chick-fil-A nuggets for our guests as a late-night snack. She woke up early and got creative to make our Pittsburgh cookie table exactly how we envisioned it. She researched how to make our fondue machine work because she wanted to make sure our chocolate fountain was working perfectly before the wedding. She dropped everything to get me into my wedding dress to make my first look with my loved ones special. When we ran into unexpected hiccups with parking, she took the stress from us and made it hers. She helped us set up. She helped us clean up. She was there for every little detail, every question, every crazy idea, and every last minute problem. Our family and guests RAVED about her because it was so apparent how involved she was in making our day perfect. There genuinely wasn’t a thing we could have asked Autumn to help with that she wasn’t more than happy to take on. We will forever be grateful for Autumn and everything she did to make August 14, 2026 so incredibly special. Golden Sands gave us the most beautiful setting for our wedding, but Autumn is what made the experience truly unforgettable. If you’re considering getting married at Golden Sands, we truly cannot recommend their venue and especially Autumn enough. We walked away with incredible memories, a perfect wedding day, and a forever friend. And for that, we are SO thankful and blessed.

As your wedding photographer, I take on more of a documentary approach and prefer to shoot with little interruption throughout your big day. Sure there will be times where posing is necessary, but for the most part, I know just how much planning and work and detail has gone into this celebration of the start of your marriage. I will be there for you to document the connection with you and your person with your genuine, honest emotions as the focus.

Willow Roots Photography was a wonderful choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, they were very receptive to our needs and vision for the day. Their communication style was excellent, and they worked hard to make sure our day was special. The quality of their work was wonderful, and they were able to turn the photos around to us quickly. Willow Roots was great at taking charge during the portrait period, finding all the best candid moments, and delivering a ton of beautiful, high-quality photos in a short timeframe. We are thrilled with the results and highly recommend Willow Roots Photography to any couple planning their wedding.

Michaela is the heart behind Olive+Oak Event Co., a wedding planner who brings calm, creativity, and genuine connection to every celebration. With a background in wedding and corporate planning with a natural gift for bringing order to the chaos, she helps couples feel supported and confident throughout the planning process.

From the moment we booked Olive & Oak, almost two years before our celebration, we knew we were in great hands. Michaela was truly the best! Throughout the entire planning process, she made us feel supported, heard, and confident every step of the way. Since we weren't having a traditional wedding (we had actually eloped a month before our celebration), we weren't always sure how we would bring our vision to life. Michaela embraced our ideas from the very beginning, encouraged us to think outside the box, and helped create a day that felt so authentically "us." What really set Michaela apart was how far above and beyond she went. Because we hosted our celebration on a family property instead of at a traditional venue, there wasn't a built-in team to help with setup or logistics. Michaela arrived days in advance to help with décor, florals, setting up rentals and all of the little details that made such a huge difference. She stepped in wherever she was needed and truly became an invaluable part of making everything come together. On the day of the celebration, everything felt completely seamless. Michaela was on top of every detail, allowing us to be fully present and enjoy every moment with our family and friends. The day ran perfectly, and if anything went wrong behind the scenes, we had absolutely no idea, which is a true testament to how incredible she is. Beyond her incredible talent and organization, Michaela made us feel like we were working with a caring friend rather than just our wedding coordinator. She genuinely cared about us, our vision, and making sure our celebration reflected who we are. That personal connection made the entire experience even more special. If you're looking for someone who is organized, creative, calming, and genuinely invested in making your day everything you've envisioned, book Olive & Oak, you won’t regret it!!

Cortnie is absolutely incredible - she was so easy to talk to and work with, we are so lucky we found her to bartend our wedding! One thing that meant so much to us was how respectful she was of my wife’s sobriety. It was important to us that our guests could enjoy an open bar without alcohol becoming the focus of our wedding. She helped us come up with creative ideas for both my signature drink and my wife’s signature mocktail. The atmosphere was fun and welcoming, while still keeping everything elegant and respectful. Our guests were able to relax, celebrate, and enjoy themselves responsibly. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She worked so hard and played such a special part in making our wedding everything we hoped it would be. We would recommend her without hesitation and are so thankful she was part of the best day we’ve ever had!
