Woodland Floral Design Co. 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Serves Forest, VA

Proud Cat & Dog Mom // Your New Wedding Vendor BFF It’s never been just about pretty flowers to me. I started out in social work because I wanted to serve and connect with others. I first entered the floral design world as an intern in 2016 and noticed a lack of originality in designs and a need for more connection between the florist and the couple. When I started WFD in 2019, I decided to prioritize both artistic designs and building long-term relationships with each couple. Planning my own wedding in 2021 gave me an even deeper appreciation for the importance of receiving creative expertise and genuine support from wedding vendors.

We had a blast working with Misha. Her florals that she executed were phenomenal and even beyond our own expectations. She is very down to earth and was the easiest and my favorite vendor to work with. Echoing what others have mentioned, her signature look is lush, full florals and I feel that her florals are exceptionally full compared to other florists we had initially looked at. If you want florals to be the centerpiece of your event, Misha is your florist! She was always accessible, dependable and great to bounce ideas off of. We provided a color palette to her and the overall vibes and trusted in her creativity and it turned out amazing. It was a very non-stressful experience leaving the florals up to her. We would highly recommend her without any hesitations. A dependable, responsive, artistic vendor but most importantly, a kind, genuine and warm individual!

Awarded Best of Zola
The value for photo and video combined was great for what we wanted to capture on our wedding day. Leading up to the big day, we had prep calls with our main photographer, Sarah Dodge, and videographer, Brian Perez. It was helpful to share what we like and don't like and talk through specific elements we wanted highlighted. Sarah is so personable and easy to work. We didn't want forced poses, so Sarah made a point to catch special moments throughout the night and got beautiful shots. We really appreciate how down-to-earth and upbeat she was. Brian was very easy-going and pleasant to work with as well. He and the editing team did a great job with our video, making sure we could look back on all the great memories for years to come. One thing we'd appreciate is if Timeless could scale back their initial questionnaire. It was very thorough but to the point of being redundant because questions became repetitive. We noticed the answers weren't leveraged as well as they could have been. For example, the secondary photographer didn't read about our preferences ahead of time--she was asked to capture the groomsmen getting ready, and basically asked my husband what to take pictures of instead of referring to the notes we already submitted and taking ownership of her role. Overall, it was a great experience working with Timeless and we would recommend them for couples interested in photo and video options.

We really enjoyed having Megan as our photographer. She was punctual, friendly, patient and took some amazing photos of our wedding ceremony at the DC War Memorial. She gave us lots of great suggestions about the background and poses for photos - suggestions that we greatly appreciated. She was very responsive since the day we first reached out to her and even helped us figure out some of the details for our big day. She is great at organizing group photos; all of our family photo sessions were so easy and efficient with her directing us through. Our photos came out so bright, colorful, and crisp!

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers

  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Forest, VA

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Awarded Best of Zola
Flower Moxie - Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers provided an outstanding, ongoing, easy, and reliable experience for our wedding. Their communication was transparent, and they clearly cared about ensuring the success of our DIY floral arrangements. The flowers arrived on time, and the step-by-step email directions and tutorials made the preparation process a breeze. I had no casualties, and the flowers turned out beautifully - I was preparing for a 5% loss but everything worked perfectly! I highly recommend Flower Moxie for couples looking for a hassle-free, high-quality DIY **note dahlias in photos are from a local farm

Hi! My name is Josh Hale and I am the owner and main videographer/editor of Still Time Media, LLC. I spent 10 years as an investigative photojournalist and was nominated for four Emmys and won two! We love using ZOLA to find couples. Still Time Media has been creating cinematic film-style recaps of weddings since 2008, ensuring our clients are comfortable, relaxed, and most of all, happy with the final product. We want to give you something that takes you back to the happiest day of your life, so you can share it with friends and family for years to come. 

Awarded Best of Zola
10/10 Recommend! We didn’t use Josh Hale and Still Time for our wedding day. We used him for a specific project for the wedding. I flew Josh in from Ohio to Georgia, and he exceeded expectations. His attention to detail with interviews, drone shots, lighting, and ensuring I got every shot I needed was very impressive. Josh came prepared to execute. He had everything he would need and knew how he wanted to shoot everything. I appreciate that level of pre-planning. Because when you're organized in the beginning, there are little to no changes at the end. From start to finish, Josh conducted himself as a professional collaborator. He knew I had a vision and he simultaneously helped me achieve it while weaving his own ideas into it as well. I cannot endorse Still Time Media enough for your special day and any media project you have. I will absolutely hire Still Time Media again.

Awarded Best of Zola
TLDR; Highly recommended! I can’t say enough wonderful things about our wedding videographer, Desmond! From the very start, his communication was exceptional—he reached out proactively, making the entire planning process so much smoother and less stressful. His punctuality and meticulous planning leading up to the wedding were a godsend during the stressful wedding planning process. What truly set him apart was his dedication to customizing our wedding video. He didn’t just capture generic moments; he went all out to tell our unique story. For example, he asked how we met and encouraged us to share our love story. Although my partner and I have been together for 13 years and thought our story might be too ordinary, Desmond captured the essence of our deep friendship, bond, and love for one another. We may see our relationship as casual, but he beautifully highlighted the family-like connection we share. Additionally, he generously suggested capturing our pre-day rehearsal dinner, an intimate gathering with just family and close friends and seamlessly incorporated it into the final video. Despite the challenging weather on the rehearsal day—rain and wind—he didn’t let it hinder his efforts. He captured the most authentic and memorable moments, proving his commitment and skill. Traveling from DC to Boston for our wedding, he ensured that all coordination was flawless, which was crucial for the wedding weekend. The beautiful aerial shots he included, capturing the mood and ambiance of the day, were the cherry on top of an already fantastic video. We couldn't be happier with the outcome and are so grateful for his exceptional work.

Jen was AMAZING to work with! When it came to flowers for my wedding, I had NO IDEA what I wanted. She was very patient with me and helped talk me through my vision. She gave me flowers to pick from, talked about how big I wanted my bouquet and how much greenery I wanted, and then when I could find colors I liked in swatches, she color-matched the colors I wanted from an inspo pic I found online! She was very professional and patient with me, even when my plans changed or I needed to add to my order.  I am not the best at putting together a bouquet. I am also someone who likes control, especially when it came to planning my wedding. I was thankful that I was able to give Jen the reins, tell her what I wanted, and watch her make my dreams come true. When I first saw my flowers, I was speechless. She truly did make my floral dreams come true, and now I get to keep my bouquet for the rest of my life! A wooden flower bouquet from Jen is the way to go!

French Honey Hospitality was absolutely amazing for our wedding. We had some hiccups in the planning process regarding bartending services and deciding what we wanted to do for this. We worked with Maegan, she came in and answered any and all questions we had and quickly sold us on her bartending services with how kind and caring she was about our special day. We spoke with Maegan multiple times regarding specialty cocktails to fit our theme and she absolutely nailed every signature drink based off the creative names we gave her. Her imagination for cocktails was astounding and you can tell she really cares about the drinks she prepares and is willing to push the envelope for your special drinks. On wedding day, Maegan was very friendly towards everyone and was very professional. She showed up early enough to have everything prepped and ready to go by cocktail hour. She also has her own bar that looks stunning and really adds to the vibes to the cocktail hour bar. We felt that Maegan and her husband took care of our guests and ensured that they had a great time. They made a beautiful menu to display all the drinks being provided which helps the guests know what to drink! I remember one of my favorite moments of the night after I had multiple drinks, Maegan hand delivered some liquid IV and water bottles to me which was very much appreciated. If you are looking for bartending services, I cannot recommend French Honey Hospitality enough. Maegan was always very responsive and receptive to our vision. They have a variety of extra services that can elevate your wedding to the next level. Maegan was an absolute pleasure to work with and we loved every aspect of the bartending services provided for us on our special day. You would be putting your trust in the right people with French Honey Hospitality.

My photos are emotion-centered and in the moment. I shoot a combination of 35mm film, medium format film, polaroids, and digital photography. My goal is to notice the right moments and turn them into timeless, artistic, photos made with love - not photos that look like everyone else's. :)

Jesslyn is a wonderful person to work with before and on the day. She is easy to communicate with, she responds in a timely fashion, and her photos are beautiful. I didn’t realize that I had a favorite lighting style in photos until I saw her work. I recommend her to every client that I meet because she is worth raving about.

Awarded Best of Zola
I hired Cassidy from Dusk to Dawn Events as my wedding coordinator and designer and it was truly the best decision I made for my wedding. Where do I start? From the beginning, Cassidy went above and beyond with everything. When I started off with my wedding planning, all I had was a Pinterest board and the ideas in my head. Cassidy took my ideas and added such amazing expertise to create a final decor design for my wedding that I absolutely loved. Cassidy was extremely attentive, responsive, and caring throughout every step of the process. She had all of the wedding designs easily accessible on her planning website, and walked us through every single detail. We hardly ever had any feedback because she executed our needs and wants so perfectly during planning. Throughout the planning process, Cassidy offered many brilliant suggestions for details or aspects of the wedding design that we didn't know how to answer. For the month-of wedding coordination, Cassidy was a pro at working with our vendors and ensuring that any final questions or requests I had were answered and taken care of. The day of my wedding was absolutely perfect thanks to Cassidy and her team! She arrived to our venue so early to personally decorate and coordinate with everyone. I had put my full trust in Cassidy when it came to the final venue set-up and decorations. I was in awe when I showed up to the venue and saw how beautiful everything was. Following venue set-up, she was in full wedding coordinator mode and ensured our entire day went smoothly. I never felt stressed or overwhelmed because Cassidy made sure that everything was handled and kept us on schedule in the most seamless way. Cassidy always had a smile on her face and I felt so relaxed. Everyone at my wedding expressed how beautiful it was and how much fun they had and I have Dusk to Dawn Events to thank for that! I will be hiring Cassidy again for events that I have in the future and will be recommending her to anyone and everyone!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

Working with Amy was a dream! She has such calm energy and was able to pivot quickly as rain interrupted our pre-wedding photos. She also managed to wrangle our family & friends group photos, even during cocktail hour! We had so much fun working with her. And the photos are stunning! Our sneak peek was perfect and we are looking forward to the rest. And we loved the unexpected tie to Montana even when getting married in Colorado!

My name is Katie and I’m the owner of Lotus Events! I am a mother, hopeless romantic, and love all things outdoors. I specialize in rustic weddings, DIY brides, and theme-based weddings. I started planning fundraising events at a young age which led me to start non profits and serve as fundraising/event chairman for many organizations. After years of planning fundraisers and friends weddings, it was time to launch my business. I truly love what I do and hope you become part of my Lotus Family!

Awarded Best of Zola
Lotus Events provided exceptional wedding planning services at an affordable price point. Their communication style was clear, direct, and calm - we had hiccups out of our control on wedding day (photographer called in sick, dress ripped & heat wave) but we were able to move forward with positive attitude and energy! On our big day, Lotus Events went above and beyond by executing all decor exactly as requested, helping clean up afterwards, and running a smooth rehearsal while accommodating our untraditional ideas with ease. They helped make guests comfortable during an unexpected heat wave. We really appreciated the military discount they offered - not all vendors do this but it made the process more affordable. If you're looking for a wedding planner who provides exceptional service and value, I highly recommend Lotus Events.

HI, I'm Alli! I am a destination wedding & portrait photographer traveling around the United States since 2016! As your wedding photographer my goal is to capture the memories you're in the moment experiencing so you can be taken right back to the day no mater how much time has passed.

These are heirlooms that you will pass down to those who love you, so let's give them honest real images about a love worth remembering JUST AS IT IS!

Booking Alli as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made wedding planning!! From creating a fully comprehensive timeline of the day, putting together a collage of Pinterest inspiration photos to know exactly what we wanted, scouting out photo locations at our venue the day before the wedding, making everyone feel comfortable and confident on the day of, and truly just working with efficiency, skill, and professionalism. Alli and Josh truly went above and beyond and we are so grateful for them!! Our friends, family, bridal party and everyone involved agreed that the Mannixco was the best overall photographer that any of us have ever worked with! One of our groomsmen said, “a lot of people with a good camera can take a good photo, but not everyone can be a great photographer like Alli”!! If you want beautiful wedding photos and a photographer who knows what they’re doing but feels like a friend at your wedding, I 100% would recommend the Mannixco to anyone!!

Hi I'm Hannah and I'm from tiny fishing village in Cornwall, England but moved here to North Carolina in 2017. Fun fact, they actually filmed some of scenes for the Game of Thrones spin off, House of the dragon there! It's hard to pick favorites but if your wedding includes a dog in the bridal party, a dress with pockets and the cupid shuffle....COUNT ME IN! Among my never-ending list of dream sessions is of course a wedding at Disneyworld and the ultimate outdoorsy engagement session with the wild horses at Shackleford Banks. Don't be surprised when I ask you to add me to your pinterest boards so I can fangirl over your wedding plans.

Do yourself a big favor and just go ahead and hire Whitt Photography. Hannah is so amazing to work with, she listened to all my ideas then melded her own expertise with my vision. Hannah was excellent with communication, she always answered my questions in a timely manner (and I had a lot of questions). The day-of had its own hitches but they were just about the only thing I didn't have to worry about. They were on time, professional but still warm and comforting on a very stressful day. I cannot say enough good things about them. And of course the photos are gorgeous.
