I'm a laid back, upbeat and silly (some might say incredibly funny, but whatever) person with a penchant for making everyone feel like an old friend. I enjoy being with people so my enthusiasm and joy on your wedding day is genuine! The greatest compliment I receive from couples again and again is that they feel so comfortable with me that taking photos wasn't stressful, in fact, it was fun! Your wedding day should be enjoyable and stress free; My goal is to make that happen as a team with you and all your other vendors, because you deserve nothing less than an awesome wedding day.

Rachel did our engagement AND wedding/elopement photos!! My original engagement photo photographer stood us up as we arrived at the site... Rachel was recommended by a friend of mine, and she showed up ON SITE in about an hour!! She even recommended a yummy spot to get a bite to eat while we waited! ...when our wedding had to be downgraded to an elopement, our choice was EASY!! We love Rachel! She is FANTASTIC! She's extremely personable...and hilarious!! We plan to use her for ANY photo opportunity that we may have in the future.

Dana was amazing throughout the whole planning process and really helped my vision come to life. Through the many emails and changes she really created the most stunning floral pieces I have ever seen. They were better than I could have imagined. From the bouquets, to the centerpieces, the arbor piece, and everything in between her and her team really was incredible. And reasonable prices too which is huge for florists! I would love the opportunity to work with her again, and cant wait to see what she does at some of the other weddings I am attending.

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Upperco, MD

A dad, a son, a brother and a jack of all trades musician that loves to rock out any chance I get. I grew up in New York City. My inclination towards photography came from classic street photography and photojournalists from all over the world that told their stories through a lens. It made me pick up a camera and start shooting. Now, living in Maryland I shoot all sorts of stories and moments locally, domestically, and abroad. It's taken me a while to figure out what my "thing" is but I've come to figure out that I'm a milestone photographer. The moments your life that have proven to be meaningful -- I'll be there.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sam was not only the best vendor we worked with but also the most fun. Non stop laughing. We forgot to bring a bluetooth speaker while we were getting ready, Sam had it covered. My husband needed a button restitched, Sam had a sowing kit in the car. The man is prepared for absolutely everything. The only thing I regret was not finding him sooner. He has since become out family photographer and several of our guests have booked already. Cheers!!!

My name is Gabrielle and I am the owner of G Studios. In 2017, I attended The Academy of Makeup in Cockeysville, MD and received my Professional Makeup Artist certification. I specialize in airbrush makeup and frequently work with bridal parties of 6 or more.

Gabrielle is amazing!! She introduced me to airbrush makeup and I loved the look she created for my reception. She was very calm and customized my look as I wanted. My hair was not long enough so I was little nervous about it but she added the volume and did my hair as I explained to her. Everybody loved my look for the day. I am very pleased with her work and skill.

Whether you select one of our four unique locations or the many Baltimore and Washington wedding venues we partner with, we will work with you to create a perfect day from start to finish.

Putting on the Ritz catered our wedding and their food was so good! I worked with Mila and Mindy during the process and thoroughly enjoyed working with them! Guest enjoyed the food (especially the Hors d'oeuvres—those meatballs and cheese/bean quesadillas were gone so quickly lol) ! There was plenty to go around though. And the guests loved the assorted cupcakes (the cake was provided by someone else) and bartending services! There were was internal changes with staffing over the time we hired them to the wedding day, but that did not create any issues. It seemed they had a smooth communication system and everything we agreed on during the tasting was exactly what we had at the wedding. No mistakes, no miscommunications, and any questions that needed clarity were asked and confirmed to myself and my event coordinator. They were timely, their staff was attentive and helpful, were reasonably priced, and they provide all the table clothes, china, silverware/utensils, and drinking glasses (all included and customizable). I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for an event caterer in the area!

Working with Tia feels like you're working with your best friend. She has such a calming presence and really embraces the experience you are looking for on your big day. Ben and I knew we wanted to be very present at our wedding and wanted to limit how much time we spent away from our friends and family. We were drawn to Tia's documentary photography and post editing style and after having a phone call with her we knew she was the perfect match! She is a photographer who will go above and beyond every step of the way. She was super responsive leading up to the wedding and took on coordinating with our planners and videographer. She answered every text and email inquiry we had quickly and I cannot express how thrilled we are with the turn out! I was shocked looking through the images at how well they capture exactly how I remember each moment, colors, hues, and all! She really captured the essence of our theme and venue and I'm so beyond grateful our path led us to her. We will cherish these photos forever and look forward to working with her again in future life milestones.

We cannot thank Music Medic Entertainment enough for making our wedding day absolutely perfect this weekend! From the very first contact with Brian, the communication was fast, clear, and professional. He made the entire process so easy, and their affordable packages gave us great value without compromising on quality. The highlight of the evening was the amazing light show—it truly transformed the venue and set the perfect mood for each part of our celebration. We had the chance to select some of the key songs for our ceremony, reception entrance, first dance, father-daughter, mother-son dance, and cake cutting, but what really stood out was how Music Medic kept the dance floor packed all night! They perfectly blended our personal song choices with classic hits and today’s chart-toppers, and our guests loved it. Everyone was on their feet dancing, and the vibe was incredible from start to finish. We had DJ Ben (DJ Jamin) and we wouldn't have wanted it any other way. The dinner music was also spot on. The selections they picked made for the perfect background ambiance that let us enjoy our meal while still setting the tone for the celebration. Thank you SO much!

I'm Barbara, an adventurer and passionate about life and the world we live in. I’ve lived in 4 different countries so far and I’m currently living in Maryland with Darrion, the love of my life. We met in 2008 in Prague. It was definitely one of those love-at-first-sight cliché stories. I’m such a romantic! I believe in fairy tales, love candle-lit dinners and dancing to Van Morrison under a starry sky.

We cannot say enough good things about Barbara and her photographs. From day one of my wedding planning process, Barbara was my top choice for a photographer. Her candid photos and gorgeous editing style drew me in immediately. Barbara took our engagement photos and photos of our wedding day. We had a micro wedding of only 21 people, so it had a very cozy feel which Barbara captured perfectly. Barbara fit right in with our family and friends. Everyone loved her. She captured the most intimate and lovely photos of our wedding day - we are so thrilled with the results. BOOK BARBARA!!

While wedding photos capture beautiful moments, being able to witness the genuine reactions and hear our loved ones' heartfelt words is something we will treasure forever.

Party Girl Entertainment 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $900
  • Serves Upperco, MD

Party Girl Entertainment is run and operated by Amy Reid; an active Baltimore DJ, musician and events curator performing since 2010. Driven by music, a sincere joy of the dance floor and the power it has to bring people together, she formed PGE in 2019 with this goal in mind. She is accommodating and welcomes venues both intimate and expansive. In 2017, The Baltimore Sun deemed Reid as one of “10 Baltimore Musicians on the Rise.” She has also been featured in Baltimore Magazine’s “Faces of Pride” issue in 2019. Her favorite party starters are Whitney Houston’s “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” and David Bowie’s “Let’s Dance.”

Amy was the DJ for our November 2024 wedding. As the music sets the vibe, we wanted someone who really understood what we were looking for and understood the music we like and our tastes. After a horrible experience talking with another vendor, we immediately clicked with Amy and felt that she understood what we were looking for (Gay dance pop!). Communication with her was straightforward and simple, and she took our basic playlists for different parts of the night and blended them to reflect our style and set the appropriate mood. She executed the music cues during our outdoor ceremony perfectly which we believe helped to elevate the whole experience. But the star of our experience with her was an amazingly packed and vibrant dance floor for the whole time. We got so many compliments on the music and everyone from our friends to coworkers and older relatives had a great time. One of our requests was to play a ton of Chappell Roan and Amy delivered, including a (potentially original?) dance mix of Pink Pony Club that was honestly transcendent. She even played a special song for a plushie toss (it’s a story) without our prompting. Every part of working with her was wonderful and we’d wholehearted recommend her to any couple in the area looking for a wedding DJ. First two pictures by Abby Carissimo.

Sabrina was great to work with. She was very attentive to our couple and captured all the special moments. She adapted well to anything the day brought us and was able to handle every setting. I would recommend her to anyone and would definitely work with her again.

We had our wedding at The Elkridge Furnace Inn and were thrilled with our experience. The venue itself is gorgeous with beautiful natural surroundings that provided a classic, elegant backdrop for our special day. The staff were always very responsive and clear in their communication during the planning process, which made things smooth and stress-free. On the actual wedding day, their coordination was fantastic - they took care of all the little details and vendor logistics allowing us to relax and focus on enjoying ourselves. The space is also quite flexible; we were able to have both our ceremony and reception on-site. Overall, Elkridge Furnace Inn provided excellent value with their scenic venue and experienced team. We'd highly recommend them for any couple looking for a timeless and effortless wedding experience.
