“I honestly can't say enough amazing things about The Antrim 1844 Hotel! We had the most incredible wedding experience here, and I'm so grateful we found this gem. We actually heard about Antrim from a coworker whose family had their wedding there last spring. It wasn't even on our radar before that, but now I can't imagine our wedding taking place anywhere else! During our planning process, we got to see so many different weddings they were hosting, and I was blown away by their unique ability to make everything from small intimate gatherings to expansive celebrations not just work, but work beautifully! They really know how to adapt to each couple's vision. Working with Jill was such a joy! She made the entire planning process feel effortless and actually fun. She was so flexible with all our changes and took the time to walk us through backup plans for weather, which gave us such peace of mind knowing we were covered no matter what. We got lucky with lovely weather and got married in their rose garden, and oh my goodness - it was so breathtakingly gorgeous that we barely needed to add any decorations! The natural beauty spoke for itself and created the most romantic, dreamy backdrop for our vows. Having so many family members and friends traveling to join us, the wedding weekend stay option was a game-changer! The complimentary breakfast for overnight guests was such a thoughtful touch - it meant everyone could wake up together and start each day without any stress about finding food. It really made the whole wedding weekend feel like one big family celebration. The bridal suite in the main mansion was absolutely perfect for getting ready! There was space for our entire wedding party plus my mom and friends to get ready together, and it provided the most beautiful backdrop for photos. We got so many stunning getting-ready shots in that gorgeous space! The food was absolutely delicious - both during our tasting and on the big day! Our guests are still raving about it. The team worked so seamlessly with all our other vendors too, making sure everyone felt welcomed and taken care of. We were thrilled about the veterans discount, which let us add some extra special touches like a dessert bar, upgraded appetizers, and shade canopies for the ceremony. They made it so easy to customize everything within our budget. Every single guest has told us what an amazing time they had, and we're already excited to come back for anniversaries! We've heard their holiday decorations are absolutely spectacular, so we're definitely planning a winter visit. If you're looking for a venue that combines stunning natural beauty, incredible service, amazing food, and a team that genuinely cares about making your day perfect, The Antrim 1844 Hotel is IT. We couldn't have asked for a more magical place to start our life together!”

I've had a camera in my hand since I was at least ten years old. Photography has always been something I've been passionate about. I was the friend that captured all the memories in high school. Once I got older, and more interested in this becoming something real, I decided to start my business in 2018. I've had the pleasure of working with the most loving clients ever since.

“We are beyond grateful that we chose Kay from Sharp Impressions Photo to capture our wedding day. From start to finish, Kay was absolutely incredible—professional, organized, creative, and so easy to work with. Kay has a special talent for making everyone feel relaxed in front of the camera. She guided us through poses without anything feeling forced, and she captured candid moments we didn’t even realize were happening. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the day from beginning to end. The photos turned out stunning—beautiful colors, amazing lighting, and a perfect mix of emotional, fun, and artistic shots. She captured the tiny details, the big moments, and everything in between with such care and intention. Her communication leading up to the wedding was excellent, and on the day of, she worked seamlessly with our venue and vendors. She kept us on schedule without ever making us feel rushed. We couldn’t be happier with our wedding photos, and we’re so thankful to have these memories preserved so beautifully.

“Mike was so great! he was such a pleasure to work with, before and during our wedding, he made our wedding day so much easier by being a true full service vendor. He handled the DJ duties, served as our bilingual MC, managed all the ceremony audio, and even set up a photobooth for our reception. What impressed us most was how organized and attentive he was before the big day, and his execution during the event was flawless.

Aside from my love for all-things-events-and-weddings, I am a cat mom, dog mom (to the best dog ever, truly), goofy type-A (yes, we exist). I love everything coffee, purple, and vintage; I almost never go somewhere without red lipstick. And you’ll probably see me somewhere in downtown Frederick at least twice a week.

“Sarah is an absolute rock star and a walking Excel spreadsheet (in the best way possible!) You can tell she truly loves what she does for a living. She radiates positivity and gave us complete confidence that our wedding day would be perfect no matter what, rain or shine. Every detail was so thoughtfully planned and flawlessly executed. Sarah was always available, responsive, and happy to answer any questions we had. She also had existing relationships with many of our Frederick-based vendors (venue, photographer, florist, linens), which made coordination seamless and stress-free. We couldn’t recommend her and her team more—no one else could have matched her level of organization, professionalism, and care throughout the entire year we worked together.”

“Zigbone Farm was the spiritual heart of our wedding. As soon as we booked this venue, everything flowed from there. Schedule, design and theme, decisions about other vendors and guest list — everything else became easier because this venue provided such a gorgeously strong anchor point in the middle of our special celebration. What more can you ask for? Every single vendor commented on the uncommon beauty and peace of this venue. We loved having our welcome dinner here on Friday night and having a local vendor make pizza in the cob oven. On Saturday when it rained, we didn’t have to worry because we knew the lodge house would beautifully accommodate our guests for cocktail hour and that the pavilion and event hall would be fine if the rain didn’t stop (it did, and we got a double rainbow!). On Sunday, we hosted a beautiful farewell breakfast. It was so wonderful to be able to have so many friends stay on site with us, and to have some space from them in the bridal suite. Not having to leave the property once during the entire weekend was such a blessing and kept things from feeling too busy or crazy. Marijke was our main contact and she was so quick to respond to any questions we had and really fun to interact with. She clearly loves this place and has a deep enthusiasm for the couples who celebrate there. Our guests who stayed on site felt so spoiled and kept remarking on how relaxed they felt, that it felt like a true retreat for them even amid a busy schedule of events. We really hope to return to Zigbone for a reunion one day, what a special sacred place. I cannot recommend it enough to any couple marrying. Especially as a queer couple, we felt deeply affirmed, safe and celebrated here. Thank you Marijke and Dena!!”

She was responsive, creative, and so easy to work with. She never made me feel like I was too type A, or that my ideas were too much or not enough.

“Maddie and her team were so amazing, and I would recommend them to anyone! Especially if you are getting married in the Frederick area. She helped so much in ensuring everything went according to plan. We had some communication issues with our catering team, but Maddie made sure that everything was correct come the wedding day, and it was. She was always just a text away. We did not have a walk through with our venue, so it was difficult for me to picture everything set up. I provided photos for some decor, but Maddie and her team exceeded my expectations with the set up of everything. She was very communicative the whole day, was constantly there with a full glass of water, and never stopped checking in on us. She even bustled my dress after the ceremony! Her and her team were extremely quick in getting everything packed up for the end of the night, and helped make sure everything made it to where it needed to go. Looking back, I do not know how we could have done that without Maddie and her team but I am SO glad that we didn't have to!

“Bowling Brook Mansion is incredible! This is a truly special venue. We offer our strongest possible recommendation, and our earnest thanks, to Debbie and her staff for making our wedding day more beautiful than we had ever imagined. The venue itself is gorgeous. The mansion is colorful and picturesque; the indoors are classy but not cluttered; the grounds are sprawling and luscious. We held our ceremony in a gorgeous, decorated, wooded grove, and took photos throughout the surrounding farmlands. We were very happy with the amount of space our guests had available to roam and mingle inside and outside the mansion. The ballroom was spacious, and with a cool summer evening, we were able to open an outdoor patio/tent area for guests to socialize. Also, when the evening wound down, we went to the roofdeck with close family and friends for a late afterparty under the stars—a gorgeous night in the countryside! Debbie and her staff are amazing. We can’t say enough about Debbie herself. She treated us like a member of her family, not just another customer. She was also easy to reach and easy to talk to throughout the planning process. She worked to understand our needs and sincerely respected our vision for our wedding, making several accommodations for our plans—such as permitting us to select off-list vendors, working with our family’s arrival time needs, and allowing us to stay in the honeymoon suite before the wedding. On our wedding day, she stayed on top of managing the vendors so that we could focus on enjoying ourselves. We owe a special thanks to Debbie’s staff for helping out in the aftermath of a hurricane. During the week before our wedding, the remnants of a tropical storm swept through Maryland. We were very worried that we would have to commit to an indoor ceremony, but the storm cleared late on Friday night, and Saturday was temperate and picturesque. Debbie and her staff arrived early Saturday morning and worked very hard to get the mansion and the grounds ready. Their hard work made our wedding day everything we wanted it to be. Thanks again to Debbie and her team. If you’re getting married in Maryland, we earnestly encourage you to consider Bowling Brook! (Photo Credit: Tom Bennett Photography)”

“From our first meeting, Marcos at The Dapper DJs understood exactly what we were going for with our non-traditional wedding vision. He met with us multiple times to nail down every detail and showed up on the day with that signature Dapper energy we loved. Marcos kept the vibe flowing perfectly throughout the night, reading the room and adjusting the energy to match what our guests needed in each moment. His song selections were spot on and got everyone dancing, which honestly made our whole day feel like a celebration rather than just a party. He was incredibly flexible and professional the entire time, from planning through the last song which he had to do impromptu to flex our timing. We can't recommend The Dapper DJs enough for any couple looking for a DJ who actually listens and delivers.”

“There are truly not enough words to describe what Darshan means to us and how much of our wedding’s beauty, joy, and peace came from him. When we think back on our wedding journey, one of the biggest blessings in it was finding Darshan and the ShubhMangal Events team. From our very first conversation, there was something so genuine and comforting about him. In the middle of all the chaos, emotions, decisions, and stress that come with planning a wedding, Darshan became the person who constantly reminded us that everything would be okay — and somehow, it always was. He didn’t just help plan our wedding; he carried our dreams with so much care, patience, and love as if they were his own. Every little detail mattered to him because he knew it mattered to us. There were so many moments where he went above and beyond in ways people will never fully see — the late-night calls, the constant reassurance, the problem-solving behind the scenes, the way he quietly handled everything so we could stay present and happy. We never once felt like “clients.” We felt genuinely cared for. And on the wedding day… it honestly felt magical. Not because everything was extravagant or perfect in the traditional sense, but because everything felt full of heart. We were able to look around, hold each other’s hands, laugh with our families, cry happy tears, and actually live in every moment without worrying about a single thing. That gift is something we will carry with us forever, and it was only possible because Darshan poured so much of himself into making our day special. What makes Darshan unforgettable is not just his talent or professionalism — though he has both in abundance — it’s the kind of person he is. He has the rare ability to make people feel safe, celebrated, understood, and important during one of the most emotional times of their lives. You can feel how deeply he cares in everything he does. Years from now, when we look back at our wedding, we will remember the love, the happiness, and the feeling of being surrounded by people who truly wanted the best for us. Darshan will always be part of that memory. Thank you, Darshan, for giving us more than a beautiful wedding. Thank you for giving us peace, joy, and moments we will treasure for the rest of our lives. We will never forget everything you did for us. — Rupin & Malavika”

“Margo was incredibly kind, attentive, and truly listened to all of my concerns from start to finish. My biggest worry was my hyper-sensitive skin, and she handled it with so much care. From the bridal trial to the wedding day, she explained every product she used and made thoughtful recommendations that made me feel completely comfortable.

“We had our wedding at Caboose Farm on October 25, 2025, and it was truly the most perfect day. One of the biggest reasons we chose this venue was the layout and how relaxed and easy everything felt from the start. We rented five of the houses on the property for the weekend, which allowed our families to stay together in big groups. It made the entire experience feel like a getaway, and having our house right next door to the event space was incredibly convenient. We rented the property for Friday and Saturday, held our rehearsal on Friday, and our wedding on Saturday. We had access to the event barn both days without any issues, which made setting up and settling in stress free. Our ceremony was in the woods, and it felt like something out of a dream. The foliage was beautiful and made for amazing pictures. Guests could walk or take the tractor wagon to the ceremony spot, which everyone loved. We added blankets to the wagon, and guests brought their drinks for a fun ride out. They also recently added a field of wildflowers on the property, and some of my favorite photos were taken there. A golf cart was available to help two of our guests who needed extra support get to and from the ceremony site comfortably. Cocktail hour was outside on the terrace that is connected to the event barn. The hanging lights made it feel romantic and cozy, and guests could step inside if they got chilly. The bar area and theatre room were right inside through a double door, and the theatre room was perfect for playing a slideshow of us. We were also able to have our dogs with us both days, which meant so much. Colby, the property manager, was incredible from start to finish. He made sure we were taken care of and that everything ran smoothly. The staff were also incredibly kind and helpful, which made the whole weekend feel effortless. Any time a small question or worry came up, Colby stepped in and handled it. I remember talking through whether our caterer needed to pre cut fruit for our specialty cocktails, and he immediately said their bartender could take care of it the night before. He also kept an eye on the weather and checked in with me about moving our rehearsal dinner indoors if needed. Little things like that helped me get through the weekend with so much less stress. The venue provided the ceremony arch, coolers for pre ceremony drinks, all the tables, chairs, linens, and napkins. We had 113 guests, and the indoor reception space fit everyone perfectly without feeling tight or crowded. Everything from the rehearsal dinner to the ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception flowed beautifully. Caboose Farm gave us a wedding weekend we will never forget, and I truly cannot recommend it highly enough.”

Capturing the real unforgettable moment on your wedding day is a privilege I take very seriously. I will be there to support you through the entire wedding process and then fist pump along side you on the dance floor. My main goal is to provide you with an incredible experience. A quick background about me, I am a born and raised Maryland girl. I am married to the love of my life, we have two beautiful daughters and two sweet pups! When I'm not photographing I'm usually paddle boarding, cooking, or going to amusement parks with my family. I cannot wait to capture your most precious memories that will last a life time!

“Jessi is AMAZING, point blank period. She came recommended to me by another photographer that I know, and from the first phone call my fiancé and I had with her, we all just clicked, and I knew that it was a perfect match. Jessi is organized and responsive, and was super detailed about explaining her processes with us. She’s also really outgoing, and got along with absolutely everyone that she interacted with at our wedding, and we got told over and over again by our friends and family that they all loved her just as much as we did! Our pictures turned out so beautifully, and captured not only the beautiful scenery, but also the overall vibes and highlights of our day. It’s amazing that even without words, the photos that Jessi took will take us back to the best day of our lives forever. We would recommend Jessi 1000x over, and we’ll definitely be asking her to capture milestones for us as long as she’s working”

My goal is to make sure every video I create represents you as the couple exactly as you are and tells the story of your day in a way that preserves the emotion and memories for years to come. I love to work with people from all walks of life and am inclusive of every type of love story. As I grow in my art and in my business, I find myself leaning more and more toward authenticity. During your day, I want to capture your true selves, therefore I do very little posing or staging. I will gently guide you during couples portraits, or point you toward the best light, but other than that, I strive to be as unobstrusive as possible.

“Livvy was so kind and so amazing for the wedding. She made sure to work with our DJ and photographer and got all the important and amazing shots we hoped she would. The final product and the videobook are incredible and I have been showing them off to everyone. She was so professional and made sure to get the important shots without blocking anything/anyone or being in the way. I honestly didnt even know where she was- but she got everything! Highly recommend this wonderful videographer.”

“We loved working with Jon! He offered us so many great options and was incredibly accommodating with every request we had for our wedding music. He and his team are truly professional and kept the night running smoothly from start to finish. The “dancing on the clouds” feature was such a magical touch for our night sky themed wedding—it made our first dance feel truly unforgettable. We also booked the "retro" photo booth which was a huge hit! Our guests were using it all night long with help from the lovely Shelby. You absolutely NEED this photo booth at your wedding—it’s such a fun experience and an amazing keepsake! We had the best time looking through all the photos afterward. A special shout-out to District Harmony for performing during our ceremony and cocktail hour- they were fantastic! Walking down the aisle to their rendition of “Merry-Go-Round of Life” was a dream come true. Everyone commented on how great they sounded. They were the perfect addition to our day!”

My adventure in photography began as a kid with my brightly Fisher-Price 110 camera. It had the coolest flash cubes! I shot countless rolls of film around our family farm. My mother has albums full of prints to prove it! I’ve shot photos in a variety of settings and venues and usually make my clients feel comfortable by quoting Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute and a good dose of self deprecating humor.

“Barb was amazing to work with. She made us feel so comfortable both during our engagement shoot and on our wedding day. Many of our guests even mentioned how wonderful she was after the wedding was over. Not to mention, her pictures are truly works of art. You won't be disappointed if you work with Barb, it's simply not possible.”
