Poppin Peonies Floral 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Sterling, VA

Poppin' Peonies began to bud in 2020 & it has flourished since! I'm Bre, I am a solo-traveling florist and LOVE adventure. Floral design began as a hobby and grew into a true passion. I personally love gardening and source primarily from local farms (in addition to my own garden!) as much as possible to give each client the best product. I enjoy helping create the overall aesthetic of the event and watching the pieces come together. I look forward to meeting you and hope to bring that unique floral touch to your wedding day!

Bre was, in a word, INCREDIBLE! From start to finish, we knew she was someone we could really trust. She was so great at bringing our visions to life, was super flexible, and was always full of helpful suggestions thanks to her expertise! When things got a little hectic with wedding planning (as things always do), Bre was one person I never ever felt like I needed to worry about! She always made me feel like she had everything completely handled with her occasional check-ins and told me to let her know if she could be of any more help. She would get back to me often times within HOURS. On the day of our wedding, Bre had such a calm presence and had everything looking amazing before I even knew it was all set up! It felt like she anticipated everything - she even had a few extra blooms to add to our cake! She is such a gem as a person and is so easy to talk to, not to mention the incredible skill and reliability she brings to the table. It is a rare talent to be able to translate someone’s words and vision to reality! Bre, thank you so much for making our wedding so beautiful, and thank you for also being someone I enjoyed getting to know!

Ozan Ulucan Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. From the moment we first spoke with Ozan, his communication was comprehensive, outgoing and clear. It was evident he has a creative, artistic eye that would capture our day in a unique way. On the wedding day, Ozan arrived early and hit the ground running, snapping photos right away and keeping up the energy and pace throughout the entire event. His experience shone through as he was comfortable facilitating numerous group photos and offering great suggestions on positioning. Ozan also scoped out the venue ahead of time and brought us to multiple spots for one-of-a-kind photos we hadn't even thought of taking on our own. The final edited photos were delivered quickly after the wedding, and the quality was truly professional and a cut above the rest. We received so many photos organized by different times during the wedding including getting ready, ceremony, portraits, family portraits, reception, night, and details including photos of our venue, flowers, and place settings. We are thrilled with the memories Ozan was able to create for us through his exceptional work.

Jennifer and Chris are phenomenal to work with. By the time we got to our wedding day, Jennifer had already put in so much work coordinating with our planner and putting a detailed schedule together to make sure we could capture important details and events throughout the day (e.g. our rings and florals, getting ready, our first look, family photos, the ceremony, golden hour, and the reception). She is incredibly organized, responsible, and responsive. The day of the wedding, throughout all of the aforementioned events, they made the whole experience fun and relaxed. At the same time, they worked with the utmost professionalism, and guided us and our family members to properly position and pose ourselves. Unsurprisingly, the photos came out so beautifully. We will treasure them for the rest of our lives.

Bianca is incredibly talented and just the best! She did the makeup for my May 2024 Indian fusion wedding (both for my wedding day and my Sangeet), and I could not have felt more beautiful. Something that was incredibly important to me when deciding on a MUA was finding an artist that is well experienced with a variety of skin tones. Bianca absolutely killed it while doing a variety of different looks. Leading up to my wedding, I went to Bianca for a few facials. The actual experience of the facial was so relaxing, and my skin was so hydrated and glowing leading up to my wedding. After my wedding, I also asked Bianca if she could do a makeup class for me. She had made me feel truly so beautiful (but still like myself). The class made makeup approachable for someone who has very limited makeup experience. She was SO thorough afterwards in all the materials she sent me with instructions and products listed to be able to recreate the looks we went over. I cannot recommend Bianca enough for all of her services!!

Mike DJ'd my wedding in May 2023, and he is THE BEST. We cannot recommend him highly enough. Mike was very responsive, easy and fun to plan with, and great with communication leading up to the wedding. On the day of the wedding, we didn't need to touch base with him because we were confident he had everything covered. We had some interesting song requests, specific timing for certain songs, etc., and Mike handled everything perfectly. He was the perfect MC to help facilitate the grand march, speeches, dances, and dinner, and he kept the party going all night! We highly, highly recommend Mike!

I had the pleasure of working with Katrina as our wedding coordinator and I cannot speak highly enough of her attention to detail and meticulous planning. Though I had 15 people in my wedding, due to covid, it still felt like a dream come true getting married that day. She had planned a mini surprise for my best friends to come and see me before I got married which was very special. I thank Katrina for making my wedding a memorable one and even though it wasn’t traditional because of covid, she was still able to bring out what I had envisioned for my covid-19 wedding. Her quality of service was superb and I highly recommend.

Brin’s Posy is named after my beloved dog. She passed away unexpectedly a few years ago, leaving myself and her pup sister (Abby) to figure out life without her. We were months of grieving her loss when a close friend insisted I channel the grief energy into something positive. A bell went off in my head as my current job as a florist in a far away town was coming to an end. Brin’s Posy helped me come to terms with the loss. I still have Abby (the shop girl) in the shop daily and occasionally out to our farm venues! We love to source local and work with community members.

Each wedding and session has its own unique story to tell and I challenge myself to capture those stories through my camera as best as I can and would be honored to capture yours too!

Let's be real. Weddings are wonderful and powerful and amazing days, but they're also big balls of stress. The best advice I ever received was from a friend who said, "find the photographer who can capture the amazing intimate moments, but also the person who you'd want to be a fly on the wall for them." After all, you spend about as much time with your wedding photographer as you do with your new spouse. Bethany was perfect for us. She captured engagement photos so stunning, so authentic, that I wish we could get a new set every year for our family. She captured perfect (occasionally hilarious) moments at the wedding that I would have completely missed otherwise - the way a friend helped you relax by pressing down on your shoulders as you got ready, the way your cousins looked at each other during a wedding toast, the way the cabin looked, it was perfect. And she created an amazing, dramatic photo that took full advantage of the rainy weekend. She's also just fun to be with; despite the stress around us, she was ready with a little joke that helped put us at ease. I think she's one of the only photographers who really got "me" in photos - not the person I try to be, or the awkward person who is trying to smile in the photos, but the person I am. I couldn't recommend her more.

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Tara Beth for our wedding in December 2022. We started following her instagram years prior and fell in love with how she captured every moment, from the guests to the couple. Not only were her photos amazing, but being a part of the LGBTQ community can feel daunting at times when reaching out to vendors, specifically for same-sex weddings. We had a few tough experiences with other vendors in regards to being a same-sex couple, but Tara Beth, as she is a part of the community, made it easy to feel comfortable and accepting. We contacted her and were met with a quick response. From the start, we knew she was the one. Her vibe and passion for love sold us! My wife and I were very nervous to take photos, but Tara Beth reassured us that she would walk us through everything - and she did just that. She talked us through our first look and it was an amazing experience. She also guided our party and family photos, which was super helpful as we were able to get our photos done ahead of schedule! We appreciate everything Tara Beth did for our special day and would recommend her 100 times over!

I specialize in capturing the real, candid moments during your wedding day. My approach is all about blending seamlessly into your event. Clients often describe me as calm, cool, and personable. While I take a variety of photos, I stay in the background, moving fluidly throughout the day. My goal is to preserve those fleeting moments, often capturing details you might not have noticed in the excitement of the day. My role also is to make your day stress-free. Whether it's helping direct family for portraits or keeping things running smoothly, I'll be by your side to ensure you feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process.

We cannot say enough good things about Konrad and his incredible work on both our engagement shoot and our wedding day! From the very first consultation, it was clear that he was not only professional but also genuinely passionate about his craft. He took the time to understand our vision for photography and delivered beyond our expectations—without breaking the bank! After our engagement shoot he surprised us with a behind the scenes video of our day and we were sold on adding the video option to our wedding day. On the day of the wedding, he was calm, organized, and made us feel so comfortable. His attention to detail was amazing, capturing all of the candid moments, the beautiful portraits, and even the small, intimate touches we didn’t notice ourselves. He managed to blend seamlessly into the background while still getting the most stunning shots. What really stood out to us was his ability to balance both photography and videography without sacrificing quality in either area. The photos are breathtaking, and the 4 minute wedding video perfectly tells the story of our day, with all the right moments captured in the most beautiful way. We were also impressed with how quickly he turned around our photos and video—it didn’t take long to relive those precious memories! All of this came at a price that was surprisingly reasonable, especially when you consider the high level of service and talent he brings to the table. We truly feel like we got the best of both worlds: top-tier photography and videography at a price that fit our budget. If you’re looking for a photographer who will not only meet your expectations but exceed them, we highly recommend Konrad. Thank you for making our special day unforgettable!

Rooted in the art of idyllic narration, my work captures your love story through a lens that mixes elegance, sophistication, and modernism with a twinge of romantic nostalgia. At the heart of Verdandi is a love affair with nuance, empathy, and impactful photographic composition. Let’s create a beautiful work of art together!

Verdandi Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. From our very first interaction, Trina was communicative, receptive, and enthusiastic about capturing our special day. Trina is both brilliant, authentic, and get creative work truly exceeded our expectations. We are so grateful for her as a human and as a photographer, she blew us away. She is so authentic and down-to-earth that we genuinely enjoyed the engagement shoot and our wedding portraits! While I’m glad to be past wedding planning, we miss our Trina check ins since she brought so much good energy to the planning process.

As a musical theatre performer, I loved makeup – the cakey, heavy stage looks, not as much. Then, at my own wedding, I found myself in a similar predicament: heavily made up to the point of not looking entirely like myself. I dedicated myself to honing my passion for natural makeup artistry for beauty, bridal, film and TV, perfecting my craft and learning from industry experts. My work has been featured in respected platforms such as Washington Family Magazine, the Emmy Awards, and DCW50 (DC's CW Network). Now, I create timeless, skin-forward makeup looks that put my clients’ natural beauty center stage.

WOW! Kiley absolutely blew me away with the look she was able to achieve for my wedding. As a no-makeup girlie, I was quite nervous to wear any on the big day and not feel like myself. Her consultation process is extensive because her attention to detail on every wish you want is spot-on. I told her I wanted a bit of pop of color possibly on my lips but overall just wanted to enhance my beauty with soft pink tones. I highly, highly recommend doing the trial session first because it helped us realize what colors looked good on me and how much makeup I actually wanted on. She is an expert at applying individual fake lashes which 1) helped me not bleed mascara down my face when I cried and 2) looked stunning without looking unnatural! After the trial, I emailed her some of my thoughts and she executed my vision perfectly on the actual day. She also made my mother and maid of honor look absolutely gorgeous; we all felt so confident and beautiful all day long! Most of all, she was just such a sweet presence the day-of and the whole planning process. I am so incredibly appreciative of Kiley's artistic gift and cannot recommend her enough!!!

I honestly don’t even know where to begin! After being scammed by another planner, I was desperate to find someone trustworthy, reliable, and truly passionate about making my wedding special. And then I found Lauren. From the moment we started working together, she went above and beyond in ways I never imagined. Not only did she handle every detail with such professionalism and care, but she also took on so much more than I ever asked of her. As a DIY bride, I was feeling overwhelmed, but Lauren stepped in and completely transformed the space with her incredible decorating skills. She turned my vision into reality, and it was absolutely stunning. Every little detail was handled seamlessly, and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Her attention to detail, organization, and creativity truly exceeded my expectations, and I am so grateful for everything she did to make my day perfect.

Hi, I'm Hannah! I’m a Greenville, SC wedding photographer, available for weddings throughout the Carolinas, Georgia, and beyond. I love soft light, rich color, timeless edits, happy tears, a focus on the little details, and couples who are really, really into each other.

I'm a wedding coordinator, and working with Hannah was SUCH a dream. She was responsive, extremely kind, helpful, and totally on top of her game at the wedding we worked together. I didn't have to worry if she was on time or ready for the next event - she was always there, ready and smiling! Her pictures were also perfect - the editing was just what the couple wanted, and she returned them quickly. Highly recommend her!

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.

We LOVED working with Brandi for our wedding!! She came highly recommended by our wedding planner and after working with her I can certainly understand why. From the first call I had with her, I knew she would fit right in with the team of vendors we were building for our big day. It was really important to us that all of our vendors be people we felt like we would enjoy spending our day with and she was a perfect fit. Not only was she extremely professional, she was a delight to be around and captured every moment and detail with so much joy. Our wedding happened to be on her birthday and I think it is a great testament to how much she cares for her clients that she chose to spend her day serving us! Her kindness didn't end after our reception, either. She was so responsive throughout the entire process and managed to deliver all of our videos and documentaries to us well in advance of her estimated delivery timelines! She captured our day so beautifully. We will treasure our videos for the rest of our lives! I truly cannot recommend Brandi enough!!
