“I am sorry we are a year and a day late on this Review Hailey! We chose Wild Rose Bevs for our wedding 08/10/2024 and Hailey was phenomenal she was super responsive, answered any questions that we had and even helped us through the steps of getting our ABC license. Hailey was also the only vendor who came to see the place before the wedding to get a feel for the place and meet and get to know us and talk through the drinks and bar sign and the whole 9 yards. She even made fresh made simple syrups and a jalapeño one for my Wife’s signature drink and the drinks were divine. We had bought beer and other canned drinks but no one even touched them that’s how good her drinks were and our friends still rave about them a year later! She did this on a 90 degree August day mind you. Hailey thank you for being a wonderful part of the best day of our lives if I could give you more stars I would! Sincerely The Williamsons”

Our goal is to make the process seamless and stress free as possible. We will work together to create a look that makes you feel like the best version of yourself. We will communicate for several months working out every detail, so don’t be shy ask me every question you have. I am always happy to answer them.

“I booked Mindy for hair for my wedding without a trial due to distance but I had a feeling that I could trust her based on previous work posted to her social media. She travelled the furthest out of all my vendors and arrived on site earlier than expected. As a bride, this relieves a lot of stress, especially because we had an early wedding! Mindy absolutely slayed my hair which was extremely intricate and included a VERY large cultural head piece. She is extremely talented and really understood what I wanted without very much direction. She checked in on me throughout the process and really went above her responsibilities as a hair stylist. She even provided an unplanned service for a wedding guest who I did not originally book hair for without hindering our timeline. The hair style lasted with no sign of falling out throughout the ceremony and then she changed my hair style during part of cocktail hour flawlessly and efficiently so I could make my grand entrance. My fiancé (now husband) LOVED my hair and even complimented how kind Mindy was during the short interactions they had throughout the morning. Mindy is not only an exceptionally talented hair stylist, but also a wonderful person. I felt like Mindy was a great pillar of support for me on this integral day of my life. I wish her all the success in the world. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Mindy!”

Epic Sounds is owned and operated by Lance Gray of Charlottesville, VA. Lance started DJing in 1997 and has over 26 years of experience DJing at nightclubs, private parties, military ceremonies (yes he is a Marine) and of course; hundreds of Weddings, Sweet 16s and Quinceañeras, Karaoke. “I have been an avid music lover all my life with a wide variety of genres in which I listen to even on my own time. Thru the years I have aimed at providing a professional service with a local feel and reasonable prices. Let me take the worry of one BIG item off your plate for your event!”

“Epic Sounds was an amazing addition to our wedding! From the beginning Lance was very attentive to our needs and our ideas. He was very flexible with our late add ons (if you’re on the fence about the photo booth definitely get it!!!!!) He provided professional sound and service throughout our entire wedding. Everyone who needed a mic had one set up with ease. He was able to do separate music for us in a different part of the venue for guests who did not want to be around louder music or lights. He was also ready to help with any task that was thrown his way! When I was dead set on a short clip I had seen online and had the idea to mix it with a different song, he was able to achieve my vision and took feedback when I wanted to tweak small things! One of our favorite parts was his ability to mix all night. We did not want a DJ to just press play on a preset playlist and go about their evening. Lance was on top of it the entire time and there was no lull in music or in energy on the dance floor. We requested that there were no slow songs and each song did not play all the way through. It gave him the ability to spin and gave him autonomy to read the dance floor and play whatever fitted the vibe. He made it very easy to make requests for what to play (or not play!) ahead of time and it saved us time and stress the day of. Lance helped our wedding vision come to life – if you want a party on your dance floor, he is your guy!!!”

“Guildford Farm was an absolute dream venue for our wedding! From the moment we first inquired, Katie and Jonny were incredibly efficient, detailed, warm, and welcoming in their communication. They were so professional throughout the entire planning process, and truly went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect. From the manor home, to the ceremony overlooking the mountains, to the clean and vibrant event center, the venue itself is absolutely beautiful and provided the perfect backdrop for our special day. Not only is the property stunning, but having access to the entire venue for the whole weekend made the experience unforgettable. Our guests are still talking and asking about this breathtaking venue! Another perk was being able to stay in the manor home with our closest people, wake up on-site, and get ready there. This added such a special, relaxed, and intimate feeling to the celebration. It truly felt like our own private estate for the weekend. From our final walkthrough, allowing us to bury a bottle of bourbon (perfect weather!), capturing all the final details, and making sure every moment was accounted for (Katie literally sent us beautiful last minute moments of our wedding day that we will cherish forever), Katie and Jonny went above and beyond. We cannot recommend Guildford Farm enough - they truly made our wedding day and weekend unforgettable!”

“Absoluetly LOVED this venue! The moment I first stepped on the property, I fell in love and *knew* this was the place my husband and I were going to get married. Angela and her staff set everything up just the way I wanted it, and it went so smoothly! There are *so* many different options of locations to have the ceremony. Due Sorelle provides plenty of tables and chairs, and the staff will set them up for you - one less thing for you to have to worry about on your big day! I also loved that we had access to the barn the night before the wedding so I could set up the reception and not have to worry about finding someone to do that the morning of. Angela was a bit confusing to communicate with at times? Just some random things here and there - asking for details, scheduling things, and some either miscommunication or lack thereof. She was super sweet! I had just wished the communication process were a little smoother. Overall I loved Due Sorelle and would absolutely recommend it to anyone!”

She was so kind and flexible when we had some close to the wedding date change in services and helped me to make a timeline that kept me stress free and my family on time. She took it in stride when I changed my wedding day hair from what we did in our trial and even though I do not wear a lot of make-up in my day-to-day life I felt so beautiful and comfortable in the products she chose to use on my skin. Briana really listened to how I wanted to look on the wedding day and focused on making me still look and feel like me!

On our wedding day, Ashley was extremely efficient and worked around our desire to have the first look at the ceremony, while also somehow getting all the shots we wanted plus a lot more.

“We could not have been more fortunate to work with Cassidy for our October wedding. Cassidy and whole the EL team were absolutely amazing from start to finish. We knew planning our wedding from abroad would be a challenge to coordinate, but Cassidy made the entire process feel truly effortless. Cassidy is so organized, kind, and supportive. She made it easy to make decisions and was a fantastic sounding board - she always said yes to our ideas (cutting 5 cakes!!) and found ways to make everything come to life beautifully. Our wedding day was seamless. Our guests kept commenting on the attention to detail and how smooth everything felt. The whole weekend was flawless, and it really stood out when our other vendors went out of their way to let us know how fantastic Cassidy was and to compliment her for being so great to work with. She went above and beyond in so many thoughtful ways and made us feel so cared for every step of the way. We’re endlessly grateful for Cassidy and the EL team.

“Champagne Wishes helped us plan and execute our 75-person wedding in June 2025 in just four months – we’re not sure how we would have done it without them! Starting from our consultation, Katelyn was extremely personable and encouraging. We were of course nervous about our tight timeline, but she quickly made us feel at ease. She honored our vision, asked the right questions, and helped us be decisive during the planning process when we needed it. Sulli took over as our day-of-coordinator and did an amazing job memorizing our timeline and all the small details of the day. She managed parking attendants from CW and tricky traffic down our venue’s one-lane road with ease, ensuring our guests had a seamless experience. Both Katelyn and Sulli were great communicators, answering our many questions in a timely manner and handling all communication with the vendor team as we approached the big day. The best testimony of how well they worked together was that after the wedding we had multiple guests and even fellow vendors remark on how smooth and effortless the day felt. We are so grateful to the entire team and we highly recommend Champagne Wishes for all your wedding planning needs! As a side note, we also worked with CW for some day-of rentals such as gorgeous wooden benches for our ceremony, cocktail tables, and LED candles. They have a large, well-priced inventory and it was super convenient to get everything in one place. Definitely recommend taking a look!”

A storyteller at heart, I believe there is great power in pairing intentional narrative with elevated cinematography. With story at the heart of my artistry, I strive to create films that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but that also capture the very essence of the love shared between you and your partner.

“From the moment our wedding day began, our videographer, Brandi Hall of Iron & Ivy, wasn’t just behind the camera—she was beside us every step of the way, gently guiding the lens. We found her through our wedding venue's (Pippin Hill) glowing recommendation, and from our first conversation, I understood why. Her work didn’t just document an unforgettable wedding day; it told our love story—woven through the laughter of our friends, the tears of our family, and the natural intimate moments between my husband and I. Every frame felt intentional. But beyond the breathtaking footage, what meant the most was how deeply Brandi saw me — not just as a bride, but as someone who had dreamed about my wedding day for a long time, and she wanted to get our video just right. It was important to Brandi that my vision came to life. Despite using a wedding planner, she recognized that I was the client, and was one of our few vendors that truly prioritized my partner and I’s voice, ideas, and our love story. This was so meaningful and important to us. Because of her, we now have a film that reflects us in the most beautiful, authentic way. I will forever cherish not only the memories she captured, but also the warmth, care, and talent she brought with her every step of the way. Thank you, Brandi.”

“Emily was the wedding coordinator at a wedding I bartended. Emily was kind and friendly, thorough, and a wealth of information for me and my partner, as well as the other vendors! If we had a question, we knew we could come to Emily or her assistant for answers. Additionally, her schedule of the events for the day was detailed and accurate, which was so helpful while preparing for our bar service. Emily is the ideal wedding coordinator a vendor wants to work for!”

“Montfair Resort Farm was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the moment we first inquired, their communication was quick, easy, and mostly over email, making the planning process a breeze. The venue itself is truly gorgeous, with sweeping views and lush, soft grass that created a cozy and intimate atmosphere. Victoria, the on-site coordinator, was super hands-on in helping us plan the details, but also gave us the flexibility to put our own personal touches on the day. They provided all the tables and chairs we needed, and even set up beautiful tiki torches along the ceremony field. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful and well-executed wedding celebration. Highly recommend Montfair Resort Farm to any couple looking for a stunning, rustic-chic venue with an amazing team to work with.”

“If you want authentic pictures that will make you feel all of the emotions from your wedding day time and time again, Eilish is your person. If you are reading this review, chances are you have already seen her work and know that it is stunning. I can't even describe the awe of opening our sneak-peeks and film photography. I don't know how our full gallery could get any better, but I know she will somehow continue to deliver way beyond our expectations. She is literally an artist and truly captures the magic of the day. I found Eilish when I was researching a potential wedding venue, and she had written a blog about that venue and had pictures from a wedding she had captured there. I found myself looking through her work of who were complete strangers to me and feeling as if I was part of the day. I felt like I was witnessing the raw emotions the couple was feeling and the little moments between the two of them that went unnoticed to the rest of the guests. Her work showed the candid laughs between the wedding party and the sweet embraces between the couple and their grandparents. I immediately knew I wanted all of that. I wanted all of those little moments captured that would have otherwise been forgotten. The real, unposed, raw moments. That is exactly what we got and we could not be more grateful. Witnessing love is seeing your wedding day captured by Eilish. On top of being wildly talented, she also is extremely responsive, has an awesome guide that answers any questions you could possibly have, and sends out a detailed questionnaire before the wedding day to make sure she captures any little details you want. She is also so sweet and just a great person. For our wedding she had a second shooter, Kelly Spaine, who was equally awesome and literally felt like a ride-or-die capturing all of the wedding picture requests from guests. Both Eilish and Kelly captured our day while also being extremely unobtrusive. We never felt like we were at a forced red carpet event that happened to be our wedding. They were THE best team we could have asked for. Eilish doesn't know it yet, but I have already made sure her website says she does family photos... because we need her for all of our life events. Long review short, if you want pictures you will be proud to pass down for generations... book Eilish.”

“We used Sam Hill Entertainment to book the band “The Dickens”. This is the part of our wedding everyone is still talking about. They played such a variety that every age was able to enjoy. Not a single person was sitting at the tables while the Dickens were on the stage. They were very interactive with the crowd and even let the groom (a guitar player) get up there and jam out with them. This was such a fun addition to the wedding and we loved every minute of it!”

“The Barn at Tiffin Farm was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. The owners were incredibly responsive, kind, and easy to collaborate with throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself is absolutely stunning - the large barn doors open up to reveal a beautiful rustic space with breathtaking scenery all around. The bridal suite is especially impressive, with a luxurious and calming atmosphere. On the night of our wedding, when a storm rolled in at the end of the night, the owner even went out of his way to personally drive guests to their cars in his golf cart to keep everyone dry. We are so grateful for the Barn at Tiffin Farm team and the role they played in making our special day absolutely perfect.”

“I got married at Hardware Hills in March 2025. It was hands down the best day of my life and I couldn't have picked a better place to get married. My now husband and I toured the venue in the Fall of 2024 while the new event space was in the process of getting built. Lori was amazing at keeping me updated on the progress and the finished product turned out amazing. I enjoyed working with the entire Hardware Hills team and would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for an event space. The bridal suite is so beautiful and easily accommodated my bridal part of 6 plus other members of my family that was getting ready there that day. The groom and his groomsmen enjoyed getting to relax at the cottage the morning of the wedding. Everything was so amazing! If you're looking for a wedding venue, definitely check this place out.”
