J.J.Ash Events and Designs

  • Planner
  • Offers 6 services
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Rising Sun, MD

Introducing J.J.Ash Events And Designs, your premier partner in crafting unforgettable wedding experiences throughout D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. Led by the seasoned master planner, Ashanti Neal, our team is dedicated to translating your individual style into a celebration that reflects your essence. At J.J.Ash Events And Designs, we thrive on building genuine connections with our clients, taking the time to understand your vision and aspirations intimately. Ashanti and her team are passionate about guiding couples through every step of the planning journey, infusing each detail with creativity and precision.

Working with J.J. Ash Events and Designs for a Jacksonville wedding was an absolute dream. I was the cake artist, and Ashanti handled the florals. When the bride shared her vision, I immediately thought of Ashanti because I’ve worked with her before and absolutely love her work. She’s one of the rare designers who can balance creativity with realism while delivering flawless execution. For this wedding, we had to transform an inspiration photo into a glam-style red wedding design, and Ashanti absolutely delivered. The bride wanted florals showcased inside acrylic tiers for the cake—a unique and challenging concept. These acrylic tiers had to be sourced from London, measured precisely, customized with Ashanti’s florals, and transported from Virginia to Florida and survive 3-4 days. Not only did the floral design make the journey, but it also held up beautifully throughout the wedding. The result? Stunning florals that tied the cake seamlessly into the overall wedding design. The bride was overjoyed, the guests were amazed, and I was blown away. Together, we created a once-in-a-lifetime piece for a deserving couple and seeing the bride’s ecstatic reaction made all the effort worth it. Ashanti’s talent speaks for itself, but what truly sets her apart is her professionalism. She’s communicative, detail-oriented, and incredibly down-to-earth. She knew exactly how to bring the vision to life and worked closely with me to ensure every detail was perfect. Honestly, I couldn’t have pulled this off without her expertise. Good on J.J. Ash for requesting reviews from vendors and guests—it’s a smart move that highlights the joy they create for couples. I’ve seen Ashanti and her team work tirelessly through weddings, sometimes staying until the very end (I’m usually there past the cake cutting, haha!). By the time the dust settles, the couple is married, their photos are stunning, and their videos capture every magical moment. Reflecting on those moments reminds me how much of a privilege it is to be part of such special events. As a vendor, I appreciated how communicative and organized Ashanti was throughout the process. She asked all the right questions, provided clear instructions, and made herself available if I needed clarification. Unfortunately, not everyone in this industry is that dependable. I’ve seen vendors drop the ball, fail to respond, or avoid accountability—but not J.J. Ash. Ashanti and her team were on top of every detail and worked to have all vendors comply and work together seamlessly. Their dedication and professionalism made this collaboration a joy, and the end result was nothing short of magical. Their results don’t lie—J.J. Ash Events and Designs truly delivers excellence. Hats off to Ashanti and her team for creating unforgettable moments for their clients. I can’t wait to work with them again! — @ButtercreamPlease • Modern wedding and celebration cakes

Paperboys is a boutique wedding film/photo agency located on the ‘skirtz of Washington D.C. We started down this regal road in 2014 and we have the mountain of harddrives to prove it! We’re a collaborative team of filmmakers and photographers who live for making amazing things for the world’s most friggin’ amazing couples. When we started this business on a wing and a prayer, we quickly realized that working alone is not a ton of fun - some would say, it’s for the birds. So, we grew our team and that’s when things really started to come to life.

We absolutely LOVE the Paperboys team! They were communicative from the time we booked through the entire editing process. We can't thank Manny enough for capturing our day so perfectly! Not only are we so happy with the outcome of our film, family and friends were excited to see Manny's work as they watched him creatively capture moments throughout the day in action. Thank you again to the whole Paperboy team for a film that allows us to relive our best day over and over again! - Kaitlyn and Eric

We’ve all been in front of someone’s iPhone for a photo. You might not think anything of it until you see it later & you don’t look anything like yourself. My mom loves to snap family photos, so I’ve been there. It's terrible for confidence & it's stressful when someone at the party says “let’s take a photo!” I get it. That’s why I do this–for you to see photos of yourself that actually looks right & you see your own lit up smile, you see yourself in that moment and simply how happy you were. I photograph weddings for that freedom & relief that your creativity & mine are working together to craft authentic, artful photographs for you.

I am a wedding planner and Jenn and I worked on a wedding together in 2018. She strikes the perfect balance between professionalism, kindness, and pure joy on a client's wedding day.

Growing up on a tree farm, plants quickly became part of my life. Observing how they grow, getting excited by the seasonal changes, and foraging to create arrangements became my passion. I love weddings and celebrations and incorporating flowers and greenery and unexpected touches.

I'm still so in love with the florals Kelly created for our wedding! We wanted to focus on using seasonal, local florals (as much as possible for a November wedding) and Kelly totally got our vision. She was super easy and fun to work with. Using seasonal flowers, we didn't know what exactly what would end up being available, but we totally trusted Kelly—it was clear she put so much thought and love into her floral designs. The final product was more beautiful than I could have imagined. Thank you Kelly for everything!

Jon was highly recommended by our wedding planner (Lissa Marie Weddings and Events), and we immediately hired him after our initial meeting. It really says something when other vendors only have great things to say! He did such a wonderful job on our wedding day and really kepted everything flowing smoothly with no hiccups. Our ceremony sounds was absolutely perfect and the microphones were sooo easy to use and captured all the sound perfectly. Jon was great at making announcements, (even though it wasn't planned) like when he had to tell people to go to cocktail hour. We also had a photobooth package with him and the attendant did such a great job running the booth. It was definitely the most popular event and our families still raves about the pictures they took! From the moment we met Jon, he was just so easy to talk to and knew exactly what we wanted for the day when we shared our vision. Jon is so professional, supportive, and positive, and I can't imagine having someone else on our special day. He is definitely worth the money and I would hire him again without a doubt for any event!

I’m here for you every step of the way - from crafting a seamless timeline to ensuring your day is as stress-free as possible. Building a genuine connection with my clients is essential to helping you feel comfortable in front of the camera, allowing us to authentically tell your story. We would love to hear from you!

Laura was my and my now-husband’s favorite vendor we worked with for our wedding BY FAR. She was personable, excited to be part of our big day, incredibly flexible and creative in coming up with ways to get the best shots for the way you want your wedding to work, and a PHENOMENALLY talented artist with such a great eye for where and how to set up shots. Her prices were so much more reasonable than our venue’s preferred vendor, and she even went out of her way to meet with them (a museum) and learn about their photography restrictions, then came up with the best ways to still get amazing photos taken. From the day we contacted her to the day we got our photos, Laura was so comfortable to talk to and work with and it was always a pleasure hearing from her. When we got our photos they exceeded expectations, we can’t stop looking at them! I can’t recommend her strongly enough for your wedding photography or any kind of professional photography - if you’re looking for a photographer, stop here, you’ve found the best!

You can find it through friendship, through dating, through marriage and parenthood. You can even learn from it through heartbreak. Each stage allows you to unlock a new level of affection and care. Believe me, we speak from experience. We are here to witness and help you preserve the most dear and happy moments of your life. Your wedding, your love, your story.

During the planning process, I mostly spoke with Jessica. She was very friendly and flexible with the initial meeting phone call, and I felt very comfortable talking to her. She made the contract very easy to understand and worked with me to pick the best package that would suit our wedding needs. She was helpful with answering any little questions I had along the way in the lead up to the wedding. Peter was photographer for the day of the wedding and I’ve never met anyone so friendly and comfortable to be around right away! I loved working with him and he was able to be very efficient while still getting amazing quality photos. I wanted to eat and rest after the ceremony, so I really really appreciated the efficiency! I know that he would also be great for people who want to take their time with their photo sessions, because he listened to any suggestions I made and would take his time when needed. He took a bunch of great shots during the reception, showing how much fun all of our friends had on the dance floor! If you’re looking for professional, friendly, down-to-Earth photographers, go with Jessica and Peter Cenzalli!!

Hi! I'm Meghan. I've had a love for photography since my parents bought me my first camera for Christmas in 2001. I took pictures of anyone and anything that sat still for more than .03 seconds. The more pictures I took, the more I loved it. It became a passion of mine, but it wasn't until later that I had the dream of starting my own business. In the meantime, I teach middle school - 7th grade Language Arts to be exact. Yes, it's exactly as crazy as you're imagining, likely even more so. Teaching has taught me two things: patience and how to laugh at myself.

I cannot begin to describe how fun, energetic and talented Meghan is. We have worked together professionally several times and any client or venue would be lucky to work with her!! I finally had the pleasure of hiring her for my bestie’s bridal shower and I couldn’t be happier. She captures every detail, highlight and moment in time with artistry. Not to mention she is fun as heck and brings the energy you want on your best days. HIRE HER. You’ll cherish her art forever.

I’m Vanessa, a Gaithersburg, MD-based couple + wedding photographer for the wildly in-love. My life was changed by love. Seriously, rocked, rumbled, wrecked, repeat. Okay, it might sound dramatic, but my relationship with my now-husband has truly changed my world and soul for the better. We were lil baby high school sweethearts turned long distance when my husband joined the Marine Corps, and our journey together means absolutely everything to me. I know yours does too, and getting to capture it is the hugest joy and honor.

We are thrilled with Vanessa Bennish Photography! From the moment we met Vanessa during our engagement photo session, we felt completely comfortable with her. Her warm personality, professionalism, and ability to make us feel at ease in front of the camera were immediately evident. The photos she and her team captured on our wedding day are nothing short of stunning. Each shot is a work of art that beautifully reflects the emotions and details of our day. Her composition and editing style are very well balanced and give our images a timeless quality look. We are obsessed with how she and her team told the story of our wedding through their lens— their talent for capturing those intimate moments and candid emotions is unmatched. One of the unique touches that made our experience even more special was Vanessa's ability to shoot in different photography formats and mediums, including 35mm film and Polaroids. This added an extra layer of depth to our photos and truly gave the whole experience the cherry on top! Vanessa, we are immensely grateful for the memories you've given us. We've been going through our photos repeatedly, and each time, we are filled with joy. Thank you so much for everything—you were a dream to work with, and we can’t wait to schedule another session with you in the future! If you're searching for a photographer with an eye for detail, incredible creativity, and a knack for making you feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera, look no further than Vanessa Bennish Photography.

Her passion for the bridal industry throughout her career has led her to experiences in New York Bridal Fashion Week, marketing campaigns and working with real couples.

I came across Dayna’s name when looking at photos from another wedding, looked at her portfolio, and decided to book shortly thereafter for myself and four others. I’m so glad I did! Dayna and team communicated clearly throughout booking, trial, and wedding day. Dayna and makeup artist Kat came to my home for my trial, took feedback well during the trial and on the day of the wedding, and made my vision for my wedding day come to life. I felt like myself, but elevated, and my hair and makeup lasted all night with minimal touchups. The rest of my party also looked amazing the day of. I would work with Dayna and team again for any future needs!

To say that Tori is a gifted photographer is the understatement of the year. I usually hate every photo of myself - but at my wedding, Tori took photos that I proudly hang in my house and that make me feel like a model. She not only is gifted at photography, but she knows how to command a crowd or energetic children without dampening the good mood. She will get photos that look magazine-worthy no matter the event. In a world where everyone tries to be an amateur photographer using their phones, trust that a professional like Tori will give you stunning photos that will last for years to come!

Events by Mandy Piluso is a wedding planning company based in Southern Pennsylvania. Our team services all areas from Central Pennsylvania to Northern Virginia. We have been crafting stunning and unforgettable weddings and events for over seven years and can't wait to work on yours.

Mandy creates beautiful events. My old event planner retired and we needed to find another one. I am so grateful that we found Mandy. We were a little skeptical because her prices were a little lower than most but she delivers outstanding quality. She is extremely quick to respond to any text email or phone call. She offers free decor rental which I thought was so cool! No one else does that.

My business started when I realized a passion for photographing the beauty of a adventurous life! As life has continued I married the love of my life and now along with Adventures Photography have found a passion for photographing the union of couples. I am building my Wedding Photography Portfolio and would love the opportunity for you to be in it!

Skyler took amazing photos of my mountaineering trip. Would highly recommend!
