Rainey Day Bouquets

  • Florist
  • Serves Colonial Beach, VA
  • Offer

As I prepare for my own wedding in April of next year, I was taken aback by the exorbitant costs associated with floral arrangements. Quotes ranging from $6,000 to $7,000, with a minimum commitment of $4,000, were simply unfeasible for me. This led me to explore alternative solutions, and I discovered a passion for creating my own florals. I was delighted to find that I had a knack for it! This experience sparked the idea to launch my faux floral rental business, driven by the belief that beautiful wedding florals shouldn't come with an astronomical price tag. My goal is to make stunning arrangements accessible to all.

While I didn’t use her for a wedding — I most certainly will once I get married! Morgan’s floral arrangements are so well done that I asked to purchase some to decorate my home. Her customer service and attention to detail is out of this world. 10/10 recommend.

Allie’s the person who comes to mind when people ask, “how was the wedding?” From lighting to song choices to the flower girl’s petals to the bridal suite (and so, so much more), Allie was on top of it all. Her passion for her work coupled with her top-notch ability to navigate the bride and groom, their families, and venue/vendor staff blew my expectations for a day-of coordinator out of the water. She made sure the day ran smoothly and kept everyone on schedule, while working behind the scenes to ensure things (and people!) were where they needed to be and when. Her ability to remove stressful decisions without forgetting the little details let everyone focus on having a great time. We could not have done it without her.

PAPERBOYS 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,995
  • Serves Colonial Beach, VA

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.

Hiring Nate with the Paperboys team might have been the best decision we made during our entire wedding planning process. My husband and I are (very picky) creatives by nature and trade so we knew that we wanted to be very intentional about our choice of photographer for our special day. Our venue was a historic hotel that requires you to work with one of their select partners, something we initially were a little hesitant about due to its inherent limitations. Most partners listed had very technically beautiful photos but nothing that excited us creatively. Until we saw their most recent partner addition: Paperboys. We loved the playfulness, talent, and imagination that was deeply valued with the team and quickly connected with our photographer Nate both creatively and socially. It was apparent that he truly loved his craft and was easy to communicate our vision with, always making sure to ask helpful questions and take the time to study our provided resource materials. Without prompting or extra charge, he also opted to bring his own film camera to snap some artsy film shots on the actual day, an above and beyond move that shows how much he genuinely just loves what he does. The finished photos absolutely exceeded expectations. His signature style we loved shone through while also managing to capture the exact essence of what we were hoping for stylistically. And as someone who specifically struggles with body confidence and anxiety, he was able to make me feel safe by providing a calm presence and plenty of posing guidance. This allowed me to truly just exist and enjoy the day, which is something I genuinely wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to manage, and therefore the most wonderful gift in and of itself. TLDR: Just hire Paperboys already and thank me later! You’re welcome.

Originally, I'm from coastal NC but after graduating college, I settled in the Triangle and have been loving it ever since. I'm a girl mama, avid fantasy reader, travel enthusiast, and true crime junkie. There is nothing I love more than cuddling with my toddler (when she lets me), reading a great book, and drinking a cup of coffee. Growing up, I never imagined I would be a wedding photographer. I honestly thought I would be an author! While I'm not putting pen to paper, I am still telling my couples' love stories and loving every minute of it!

Wild Elegance

Hello hello! My name is Marie and I am the owner and photographer for Wild Elegance. We are a brand for adventurers, for lovers of life, and genuine people who love those little moments between the moments in life and seek out truth over perfection. Your marriage is unique because of the relationships you have with the people you choose to celebrate with. Spending my day with you and your closest family and friends brings me such joy, and creating art out of some of the best moments of your life is something I am truly honored to be a part of for so many.

Knowing how much of a financial investment a wedding photographer was going to be, I did not take my decision lightly. I reached out to several companies and had several questions when determining who would be the right fit. And I have to say, Marie was by far the most understanding and compassionate during that process. While many photographers seemed annoyed by the (many) questions I would ask before booking, Marie was patient and very thoughtful with her responses -- she even took time to arrange a phone call with me while traveling! And during that phone call, she made sure I didn't feel rushed and that she answered all questions I had fully, it truly felt like I was talking to a friend. That was when I made the decision to book with Marie. Beyond that, when booking the session for our Engagement photos, she brought several creative and adventurous ideas to the table and had the PERFECT locations to take us to. We had a blast together. I would recommend Marie to anyone looking for a photographer who is friendly, compassionate, accommodating and just a joy to be around.

I am more than just a wedding photographer. I am also your hype woman, go-to for all wedding planning questions and day-of help, and #1 cheerleader during the wedding planning process. Ask any of my past couples... I will definitely be on the dance floor at your reception! I pride myself on helping my clients feel comfortable in front of my lens. You would not believe how many times clients have told me they don't like taking photos or "aren't photogenic," and then end up loving their photos! I am based in the DC area, and central Texas.

Anna was recommended to me by one of my childhood friends and I could not have had a better photographer. I really felt like she wanted to know me and my personality before the wedding day so she could reflect us in her photography. She did an amazing job!! I was especially touched how she did research on our venue (Washington D.C. Temple) so she could appropriately cater to the building’s uniqueness and magnify how special it is to me and my husband. The pictures she took of it came out beautifully! I would recommend Anna Romani’s photography to anyone celebrating a great thing in their life. From her kindness to her master skill, she is everything you could need in a wedding photographer and more!

Hey Friend! Photography is my absolute passion and it shines through my images!!! I live for the RAW moments... the true emotion of the day. Tears that fall during a first look, the last hug with your loved ones before you walk down the aisle, and the ear to ear smiles once you've said "I Do!" I blend candid and guided shots, giving you the freedom to move about the day to enjoy it, while never having the thought of “what should I be doing” running through your mind!

Lauren has an extraordinary eye for detail. She doesn’t just take pictures; she captures moments—the spontaneous smiles, the glances exchanged, the raw emotions. From the very beginning, she made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera—something neither of us was used to. She took the time to understand our style and personalities, and tailored her approach to fit that perfectly. On the day of the wedding, her calm and positive energy was a grounding presence amid all the excitement. Lauren made the entire process feel seamless and enjoyable, from our engagement shoot to the wedding day and beyond. She’s a true artist, and her work will be cherished by us for years to come.

Aaron Jay Photography gets great satisfaction in knowing those moments we captured through a lens will be cherished forever.

We got married in the middle of a pandemic, via Zoom. Though none of our family or friends could be here, Aaron was able to come over and photograph us from a safe distance in our backyard. The pictures are absolutely amazing- better than anything I could have expected, even for a “normal” wedding. We love Aaron.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

Meredith was amazing at my wedding. She has an intuitive way to get the best pictures of you and your loved ones. She is also accommodating to what you want and what you need. Her positive and warm attitude allowed me to feel comfortable and it shows in my pictures. I think her background in surfing photography allows her to capture the best moments quickly, and she knows lighting well too! Her ability to capture tiny moments into a warm and loving photo make her extremely valuable any wedding team. My wedding was captured beautifully . I would highly recommend Meredith! :)

Saying Ashley (and her associate photographer, Bri) was amazing just does not do her justice. Ashley did both our engagement photos and wedding photos, and both were stunning. The communication with Ashley throughout the entire process was easy, she always responded quickly. She was so willing to answer our questions and give us tons of wedding planning advice. She made sure to get every single shot we asked for. Her skills are beyond unbelievable. She makes you feel so comfortable and makes sure you are having fun while taking all of your photos. She even helped me with our timeline, which helped the day run smoothly. Her turnaround time is extremely fast, unrivaled in the industry. We received our sneak peeks less than 12 hours after the photography ended. We received our full wedding gallery less than 2 weeks after our wedding date! We were blown away by all of the photos. Her editing is top quality and every single photo looks stellar. We could not recommend Ashley enough for any occasion, not just weddings!

Christine is amazing! I was looking for a photographer for my wedding who’s work had more contrast than a lot of the light and airy photos I’ve seen lately and Christine definitely delivered! She’s super sweet and easy to work with (even doing our engagement pictures when she was super pregnant)! She did such a great job of scouting locations to take photos for our downtown San Diego wedding and we love that we have pictures in different spots around our venue. She also spent time talking through different dynamics with families for wedding pictures so we could get all the combos we needed without awkwardness of certain family members not getting along. I cannot recommend working with Christine enough! Hire her- you won’t regret it!!

I am a photographer, coordinator, artist, friend, and romantic documenting unscripted moments of life and love. I have that wedding-day giddiness when I photograph weddings, which I absolutely love documenting. I am always honored to be a part each and every wedding I photograph and to capture those important moments!

Laura and her team were absolutely amazing! She was professional, timely, and really helped our day go smoothly. We had some rain that ended up changing much of our original plans but she handled it all so well and had so many great ideas. We were easily able to add more time (for a fee) so that I could get all the pictures I wanted. Additionally, she had a sneak peak done within just a few days so that I could share pictures with people that weren't able to attend (which were absolutely incredible!!) . I could not thank Laura and her team enough and cannot wait to see all my photos!

Jessica was AMAZING to work with throughout the entire wedding process! We got the opportunity to work with Jessica for our engagement photos at Glacier National park in 2019 and were completely obsessed with our photos. So, when COVID kept changing our original wedding plans in Michigan and we decided on a small wedding out in Colorado we knew we had to have Jessica photograph our wedding. Jessica was always so quick to respond to texts/emails with any questions we had! Jessica is more than willing to go above and beyond for her clients. She is fun, professional, and makes the whole experience comfortable and easy. We couldn't have dreamed of a better photographer to work with and capture our Big Day!

Hey there, I’m Jami Pollnow Heath. I’m a wedding planner living and working in Richmond, Virginia. I'm a Maryland native living Richmond Virginia with my husband in our first home; a big beautiful project in Fulton Hill. In my journey down the aisle I found more than just my future partner, I found what I was meant to do; helping people like you say "I do" too!

We hired Jami for Day of Coordination and received her support over several months, beginning with an hour-long meeting 3 months out! Our wedding was the most incredible day of our lives in big thanks due to Jami’s thoughtful attention to detail, hard work, past wedding experience, and pure kindness! I get emotional thinking about the day and our wonderful experience with Jami! She was truly above and beyond! “Our Curated Design” is the perfect name for her business because she’ll work with you to envision the day you want, going with you through all of your mood boards and ideas so she truly “gets it”! She’ll put what you want into words and writing and then the best part – BRING IT TO LIFE! We wanted whimsical, modern, Wes Anderson vibes, and we more than got them! It was amazing! Going into planning a wedding, I had no idea what a Herculean effort it is to execute one. Even for 80 people, it really is 1,000 details. Jami will make sure to think of every single one. She’ll answer every question you ask and remember the answer when you’ve forgotten it on the big day. She’ll be your biggest cheerleader before, during, and after your wedding. It’s also the little things that Jami thinks of! She had the creative idea to take instax film images throughout our wedding that we’ll now get to cherish forever! We already are! It means so much to us to know that Jami and Will, her husband, had our back throughout our day. We honestly can’t believe how well the day went, but it wasn’t luck or just our planning, it was mostly due to Our Curated Design magic! At the end of the night when we were exhausted (we’d left it all on the dance floor) and we couldn’t help to pack up our decor and things like we wanted to, Jami and Will took care of it with smiles! They were such a calming presence to share the end of our night with. Not to mention, everything got back to our home expertly packed! I would recommend Our Curated Design over and over!

The quality of their work was polished, elegant, and extremely detailed - from the stunning floral arrangements to the seamless day-of coordination. Stephanie had multiple phone calls with me to prepare for the big day, providing input on the timeline, florals, and overall vision. I truly don't know what we would have done without Alison to the Altar's expertise and support - they allowed us to be fully present and enjoy our special day. Stephanie and Allison are the sweetest vendors and made us feel so important throughout the entire experience. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

Best Wedding Photographer EVER! I can't put into words how wonderful Jenna is and how much my husband and I loved having her photograph our wedding! Photography was very important to us and the images Jenna captured on our wedding day are nothing short of a dream! We knew shortly after meeting with her that we were a great personality match and she's someone we'd enjoy spending our wedding day with. Leading up to our wedding, Jenna was very supportive and willing to meet with us to discuss details. We had already had engagement photos done by the time we met with Jenna, so we met her in person for the first time on our big day but it felt like we already knew each other. She was so flexible and positive throughout the day (which did include some surprise rain showers, putting us a bit on edge). She really listened to us and understood what we were looking for and was just so fun to have around on our wedding day- all our family and friends loved her. Jenna continued to communicate regularly from our wedding up until our gallery was ready. She provided some sneak peeks quickly, and was even willing to edit and send a few specific photos in the timeframe while she was editing. We could not love our gallery more - especially the film photos! Highly recommend Jenna for wedding photography - she's awesome and you will have nothing to worry about on your big day!
