Wedding Vendors in Damascus, MD

“Penderview Events truly went above and beyond to make our day PERFECT. As a DIY and meticulous bride, we knew Anna was the one we would entrust with our vision the moment we had our phone consultation; she was so incredibly sweet and enthusiastic about our big day, and I immediately felt a sense of ease that she will be able to handle all the shenanigans and i can pass her the torch with ease. Although she was hired for "day of", she assisted us in any way possible months leading to and made sure we were on top of all the important tasks leading up to the day of (i.e. vendors contact info, finalizing timeline for the morning/day of, etc.). My big day unfortunately started off disastrous (I became car sick), so I was unable to give guidance with the decor during set up. But since one of the tasks Anna asked me weeks prior was for a list with all the decor and how/where I wanted them placed, Penderview legit made my vision come true!!!!!!!! Penderview was so attentive, that they were even able to place some items which I gave no instructions for (i.e. last minute decided that we wanted wedding party to sit during the ceremony, so I made name placement cards for the reserved chairs, and without mentioning it, they were placed on the chairs in processional order). Penderview was able to execute every event and details on the timeline FLAWLESSLY, and I was able to enjoy the event with ease knowing that everything was in such capable hands. We felt and saw how invested Penderview was throughout the day in making it perfect for us, especially the attention to details and handling all the logistics smoothly behind-the-scenes. I also really appreciated Anna’s assertiveness when hiccups would arise (ie, making sure guests wouldnt be walking in while were ready down the aisle/stay out of view, wedding party prioritized drinking and forgot to come back for portraits; flower girls kept running infront of camera during portraits, and so many other headaches i did not want to deal with, etc.) Not only was Anna able to accomplish and execute my vision beyond expectations, but she was also my emotional support and my right-hand lady, making sure I was always hydrated. Anna’s empathetic and kind demeanor made her feel more like a close friend than just a ‘day of coordinator’. Hiring Penderview was the best investment we made. Thank you so much for making our day magical and we will forever be grateful to Penderview!!!”

“We’d worked with Paul in the past capturing holiday photos and our engagement shoot, but we weren’t prepared for the incredible video and photography he captured at our wedding. We were blown away. He turned our memories into magic. His team put us at ease. They were professional and fun. We are incredibly awkward but somehow they managed to relax us in front of the camera. Our friends and family couldn’t believe their eyes when we shared our images on social media. It truly feels like we get to relive the experience every time we watch the video.

I have the coolest job in the world: I create emotional time capsules for my couples (and hopefully you too). That way, you get to be fully present on your wedding day and you get to relive that day over and over again with the same intensity, joy and love. My not-so-secret sauce is this: I get to know you. I find out what makes you and your lover tick, and then, I craft a visual story that's reflective of you. My utmost goal is to create joyful imagery for folks who want things documented exactly as they felt.

“Hiring Maggie was one of the best decisions we made while wedding planning. She captured our day perfectly, and we were thrilled with how the photos turned out. Maggie has such a fun and genuine energy that comes through in her work and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Working with Maggie was a breeze - she has a lot of knowledge and experience and gives great advice for the whole wedding day. She really listened to what we wanted and understood the vision for our day; nothing about working with her felt cookie-cutter or impersonal. Maggie has an incredible eye for capturing all the little moments that make up a wedding day, and we feel lucky to have those memories captured to look back on. We cannot recommend Maggie enough!”

“We hired 24K Event Band for our long-postponed COVID wedding this March (2022). They were phenomenal in every way. From the very beginning, Jill, the band leader, made the experience very easy. She was incredibly responsive and helpful. She guided us through the process, asked all the right questions and helped us think of things we certainly hadn't thought of ourselves. The band learned two custom songs for us, one for our first dance and another for the mother/son dance. They CRUSHED the songs! Absolutely amazing. Overall the entire experiences was beyond my wildest dreams. Everyone at the wedding was amazed by the talent and energy of the band. We loved all of the vendors we worked with to make our night special, but 24K Event Band went above and beyond and really made the night come together. I would highly, highly recommend them. Great energy, great enthusiasm, amazing to work with, and incredible talent.”

“My now-husband and I were on the fence about having a videographer at our wedding. After months of deliberation, we put out a last-minute desperate plea for a videographer. Tim responded that Foxlight Films was available on our wedding date and offered his services... little did we know that hiring him would be our best decision yet; the cherry on top of a perfect day. Tim was there throughout our wedding day, unobtrusive yet ever-present, capturing every beautiful moment from our first look, through our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Being able to re-live our wedding through the POV of our guests has been absolutely priceless. Our videos are a perfect representation of our day, capturing all the love and happiness we felt in the moment - we’ve already watched them at least a dozen times each! There are not enough words to express how happy we are with Tim’s services, but I hope these snippets from our friends and family will paint the picture for you: Grandma: “Spectactular” Dad: “He was worth every penny” Mom: “WOW” Best Friend: “How did he capture all that?!” Bridesmaid: “If I ever get married I’m flying him out here” Coworker: “We should hire this guy. He’s good.” Friend: “That shot is f***ing moneyyyy” TL;DR - If there was a rating higher than 5 stars, I'd give it. Hire Foxlight Films. It will be the best decision you make on your wedding day.”

As a wedding photographer by passion & an aerospace engineer by day, I bring a unique perspective to my photography. I am incredibly detail-oriented, hardworking, & I truly believe everyone deserves quality photos to look back on of special moments in their life. My goal is to deliver luxury, editorial images that capture the true essence of your love story. I approach each wedding with a fresh perspective, knowing that every couple is unique & deserves to have their story told in a way that is true to them. So count on me to take charge when needed & when I'm not - to keep on authentically & artfully documenting your day.

“Jenn was absolutely incredible to work with. I felt SO lucky when I came across her work on social media - which was genuinely more beautiful than photographers charging 2x or more. I probably inquired with 10 photographers beforehand, but the moment I found Jenn, knew we'd choose her for her beautiful work. We loved our engagement photos, and she gave us (stunning) sneak peek wedding photos the day after our wedding! From her "detail" shots, teaching us how to pose (thanks!), scoping out the best spots for beautiful shots, creating a wedding day photography timeline for us - she was so professional, creative, and easy to communicate with. Also as a side note, she is an engineer and I don't know how she is blessed in equal measure with both left-brain precision and right-brain creativity. She also has some very cool options, like Super8 film, polaroids, etc. that we opted to add on - her work is timeless and beautiful and I can't recommend her highly enough. Jenn - thank you so much for capturing these moments for us to look back on!”

They had multiple packages to choose from and an hourly rate as well. We had a four hour reception and they threw in two hours of free setup and an hour to take down and clear up. They also have yard games and other add ons you can include. Mary was great to work with and helped with any questions along the way. The only advice I would give is to reach out to them directly instead of through Zola for a faster response initially. Given the high price tag if venues in the DC area The Garden is a great option if your wedding is under 100 guests and you are looking to have a more casual reception.”

“Serge provided exceptional service and even worked extra hours at our wedding, which was of course a good surprise for us and amazing gift. We also ordered extra as a video and we got it, short version and long version. He is one of those people, who feels the vibe and atmosphere of the party and can help you out with posing, if you dont know how to move, he can make you laugh and catch the moment.”

Photography register moments for generations to come. It documents lives. It brings you back to the past. It reminds you of how you were feeling at the time those images were taken. This is why I love it so much. And the whole reason why I created “Luxy”. My goal is to help our clients feel the same way I do when I look at photographs of my life. The immense joy and pleasure of knowing that I - as everyone else - have a story to tell!

Born and raised in Maryland, and will forever be a Maryland girl at heart. I relocated to Virginia in 2015 after graduating from the University of Maryland, College Park (GO TERPS). Now, I live in Northern Virginia with my college sweetheart, our 3 rescue pups and our baby boy. I started my planning journey in college, planning my sorority's events, along with various corporate and charity events. After graduation, I started shadowing wedding planners in the industry, learning the ever-changing world that we call wedding planning, and the rest is history! I love making couples dreams a reality!

“Laura made our dreams come true! She saved us from a disaster with one of our vendors and found us an incredible florist one month before the wedding. She made everything look so beautiful at both the ceremony and the reception. She understood our vision and executed it to perfection! I was afraid to bother her with overcommunicating, but Laura put my fears to rest and was there for me, met with me multiple times prior to the wedding, and made sure I was happy and comfortable! We are sooooo thankful for Laura!”

My passion for photography grew when my daughter, Lotus, was born in 2004 and I began documenting her childhood with an eye toward catching each irreplaceable moment. Soon, friends and then friends of friends asked me to photograph their children and families. Before long, I was documenting the lives and milestones of people all over the DMV area. I realized how happy I was connecting with people and capturing special moments, and so I launched Lotus Photography in 2012 - named for my first muse. I fell in love with capturing weddings in 2017 and I have been hooked ever since!

“Jessica is AMAZING, we hired her for our wedding and also did the engagement pictures with her. I am brazilian and since she is also I thought maybe my now husband would be a little uncomfortable taking the pictures but no way, not with Jessica, the way she makes everything seems so smooth and simple makes you think you are spending a good afternoon with a friend! And her work is definitely THE BEST! On my wedding day she managed to speak both languages with my family and my guests and took so much amazing pictures that now is hard to choose! Everyone loved her job and she sent the pictures so fast that I was really impressed! From now one my dates for events with pictures will depend on her agenda. I can’t wait for the next sessions of her capturing our love!”

Hi, its Jessica, I am a couples and wedding photographer based in Virginia. My clients are so special that they find themselves a friend for a lifetime, not just another wedding vendor. I take time to know you! I love learning about your love story, the proposal, etc. I am hopeless romantic, so I will probably shed a tear at every wedding I attend or photograph.

“Kelton was wonderful to work with from start to finish. He stuck with us even when we had to postpone our wedding for two years due to the pandemic, so we really appreciated his commitment to working with us. Kelton has a great system for figuring out your taste, priorities, and run of show. He set up very quickly at our venue, which was key given we were running on a tight schedule, and he managed to produce nice sound in a very cavernous space (no idea how!). He kept us running on time and made all transitions seamless. His music perfectly matched the vibe we wanted, starting with a relaxed cocktail hour and dinner, and gradually increasing the tempo into a full-scale dance party as the night went on. And our friends and family had an absolute blast! He had everyone from 20 somethings to family in their 60s and 70s dancing until the very end! We got so many positive messages the next day, including one person who described our DJ as being "on fleek."”

“We made a somewhat last minute decision to hire a “day of” just to help with some set up and tear down of decorations. But now, after the wedding, I cannot imagine having made it through the day without Michelle. She accomplished everything we needed and things we had no idea we needed - from ensuring tables were in the right place, to making sure people were where they needed to be. Michelle was the absolute best and most helpful. She was somehow everywhere at all times and knew every movement throughout the night. We could not have done it without her. Beyond five stars!”

“Amanda is the best! She is professional, takes amazing photos and was an absolute pleasure to work with. She took all the ‘inspo’ photos I wanted, made suggestions for more, and used her expertise to help make the photos even better. She worked well with all of the other vendors we had hired for our wedding and was also worked perfectly with my friends and family (they all thought she was fabulous too)! I’m so grateful she was our photographer and all of the photos have exceeded my expectations!”
