The moment we first toured The Hummingbird Chateau we fell in love and knew this was where we were meant to get married. Working with Angela and the owners were amazing. Went above and beyond and made our vision come to life with the expansive decor they offer and her creative eye! I can’t recommend them enough! Beautifully unique venue, stunning decor to choose from their vast inventory, the eclectic colorful farmhouse has an amazing photo opportunity in every nook and cranny! The bridal suite is gorgeous and relaxing and the grooms area was spectacular. I could go on and on raving about everything this venue offers.

The Hummingbird Chateau is a must see! - You’ll fall in love just like we did :)

Sleeping Bee Designs

  • Serves Manchester, MD

Aside from my love for all-things-events-and-weddings, I am a cat mom, dog mom (to the best dog ever, truly), goofy type-A (yes, we exist). I love everything coffee, purple, and vintage; I almost never go somewhere without red lipstick. And you’ll probably see me somewhere in downtown Frederick at least twice a week. The SBD team has a team of Leads and Assistants of all backgrounds but we all share a love for logistics and supporting couples on their special day!

Sarah & her Sleeping Bee Designs crew were everything I could have ever asked for. I'm a very DIY person, so I thought "hmm, maybe I don't need a coordinator." Spoiler- yes you do, everyone does, don't do it yourself. I promise it's worth every penny. We first met Sarah at a wedding expo in Downtown Frederick, and immediately loved her personality. We emailed several months later, and were so relieved she was available on our date. The second you book her, she'll give you things to start thinking about. Like, things that never even crossed your mind, but duh! Organized doesn't even begin to explain SBD. Our wedding timeline was planned perfectly, down to the minute. Sarah was on top of rallying the other vendors, and even joined me for a couple calls with them, leading up to the wedding. All our vendors said the similar things- "Wow, she's on top of it." Or "Holy bananas, she's the most organized coordinator I've ever worked with." The day of the wedding, we felt so taken care of. You need a drink? Don't worry- Sarah or Christine already know, and it's probably on the way. We blinked and the decorations were all packed up and in our car. Vendor tips? Handed out. Card box? Very, very secure. Something not matching up with a different vendor contract you signed? Not on SBD's watch. As we were leaving the venue the night of our wedding, Sarah gave us the best piece of advice: "Eat your wedding cake for breakfast, open all your cards in the morning, and just take it all in." We did exactly that, and it's one of my favorite wedding moments. I don't think our wedding would have been half as successful as it was, if we hadn't hired Sleeping Bee Designs. It's been 8 months since we've been married and Sarah is still helping us with things- can you say newspaper feature? Looking back at our whole experience, I'd honestly pay double what we did.

Maddie did an amazing job for our wedding. She was great to work with and made our day stress free and run smoothly. She is organized and her templates helped simplify the planning process for us.

Capturing the real unforgettable moment on your wedding day is a privilege I take very seriously. I will be there to support you through the entire wedding process and then fist pump along side you on the dance floor. My main goal is to provide you with an incredible experience. A quick background about me, I am a born and raised Maryland girl. I am married to the love of my life, we have two beautiful daughters and two sweet pups! When I'm not photographing I'm usually paddle boarding, cooking, or going to amusement parks with my family. I cannot wait to capture your most precious memories that will last a life time!

If Jessi is available on your wedding day, don’t miss the opportunity to work with the best around. I can’t say enough about how wonderful it was to work with Jessi. With Covid throwing a wrench in all our planning, Jessi was beyond understanding when having to make changes. And when we were forced to find a new venue, we picked our day based on Jessi’s availability. She’s just that amazing! She’s so talented, easy to work with, and an all around fantastic human. 5/5 highly recommend! You won’t regret it!

Out of all of the many many decisions we made for our day, booking with Protea Event Planners was the best decision we made hands down. Caroline was a pleasure to work with and totally calmed any of our stress and anxiety during the days leading up - I can honestly say it’s because of her that we had a completely stress-free wedding day! Not only was it her lovely presence that made the day go perfectly, it was also her skill, natural talent, and years of experience in the industry. She put out all of the small fires, kept everything and everyone involved on time and running smoothly (with a huge bridal party, off-site church ceremony, and two wedding dress looks), and made every detail, no matter how small, of our vision come to life! She made herself extremely available and accessible for our many questions and concerns and never made us feel crazy :) Caroline absolutely went above and beyond for us and we cannot emphasize enough how crucial of a part she was in our day being so amazing. She is already booked for another wedding in the family because of how much we all loved working with her. If you’re thinking of working with Protea Event Planners, book it - you will not regret it!

Union Mills was the perfect venue to bring my husband and I’s dream wedding to life. The in-house catering not only made the planning process easier, but the food was amazing; it was clear Niko wanted the menus to represent us as a couple and was receptive to all feedback to make the day perfect (even going as far as outsourcing an Italian delicacy we love to have it there!) The catering staff was fun, polite, and accommodating to any allergy need. The venue itself is BEAUTIFUL and matched our Black Tie aesthetic perfectly. With the chandeliers, Carroll Creek location, exposed brick, newly renovated cocktail hour space & bridal suite, our choice was easy. Both Niko and Mary maintained clear, efficient communication throughout the whole process, even once the wedding was over and it was New Year’s day to follow up on a missing item. I could not recommend this venue more!

My love for floral design began inside the horticulture classroom at my high school. That classroom played a pivotal role in allowing me to be creative in ways that I never had been before. When I left for college, My goal was to study business in order to operate my own Floral Business but I quickly lost track of that dream. The pandemic served as a wake up call for me just like it did for so many others. Allowing me to rediscover my love for flowers and all things beautiful. Bazarr Blossoms is more than a business its a passion that allows me to stay true to that teenager who once created and dreamed inside that high school classroom.

Kay was hands down the best wedding photographer I could have ever asked for. Her style is light and bright which transferred the brightness and happiness of our beautiful wedding day. Not only is she incredibly professional and sweet, but she also delivered a preview in 1 day and our full day of photos in about TWO WEEKS. The online gallery she sent us had literacy over 1,000 photos and they were all edited beautifully. She was able to capture every tear, every funny face, and every unattractive cheesy head-thrown-back laugh. Other than family portraits, she was truly a documentary style photographer in that no photos were staged and every shot is authentic. I could go on and on and on about the actual photos, but in addition to the extreme high quality of her work, Kay was reassuring and helpful throughout the whole process, going so far as supporting me even more than my day-of-coordinator in the creation of the timeline for the day of. If you have any doubts--don't. She's amazing. I would hire her again and again and most likely will for photos in the future.

I booked Margo as my wedding hair stylist and she was amazing!! Her professionalism and bubbly personality made my wedding morning stress-free, and she gave me the hair style of my dreams I first booked a hair trial with Margo about a year ahead of my wedding. From the start, she was communicative, and my trial session was a lot of fun. She answered a ton of my questions about timeline, hair styles, and more. She also sent me extra reference photos when I requested them to prepare for my bridesmaids. Margo is also incredibly fast. We had a 12pm finish time, and I had 5 bridesmaids plus myself that needed their hair done. She arrived at 7:30AM and completed everyone’s hair in a timely manner. My bridesmaids had hair ranging from very naturally curly and thick to extremely straight and hard to hold a curl. Every single one of the girls’ hair held up for the entire day over 12 hours, and everyone was delighted with their chosen styles! My hair was still looking fantastic after a lot of dancing (see the attached photo of me at top golf at the end of the night!) I highly recommend Margo for an entirely stress-free morning getting ready for your wedding, and if you want you and your bridesmaids looking beautiful for the entire day. Her and her team at The Whole Story are amazing!!!

When we started planning we wanted our day to be as stress-free as possible and fun so Attaboy was an easy choice. There was so much I loved about the venue, but here are some top considerations: Location/logistics- It was so easy to get everything and everyone to the venue and our guests loved how easy walking or parking was. Other vendors also expressed appreciation that they were able to get in earlier in the day and that it was easy to get to. Since it is off the creek, the outside area felt more intimate. There are also lots of cute areas to take pictures in the venue and just steps away. Aesthetics- the venue was beautiful! The simplicity of the set up really made our florals pop. They provided tables and seating which were perfect with our design. The whole space lends itself to so many different design possibilities. Also, since it is very cute/clean as it, we didn't need to go overboard with decor. Service- Anna was a huge help throughout the entire process. She made me feel confident that everything would run smoothly. She was also quick to address questions/needs. The day of the event all of the staff were wonderful. They were so friendly and fun!

Hiring Mike as our wedding DJ was one of the best decisions we made!! From our first meeting, Mike was professional and friendly, providing us with a lot of information and answering all of our questions. After we booked with him, he set up an easy-to-use app for us to select our songs, write notes about the reception, and communicate any special instructions. It helped us keep track of what to prepare and how to plan the timeline of our day since we didn't have a wedding planner. Mike also came to an in person meeting with our venue so he could be prepared for the wedding day, and he was completely set up and ready when we arrived for cocktail hour and dinner. The wedding day could not have gone better: not only was Mike on point with all the music choices we made, he created an excellent vibe for our guests. We had a lot of families with young adults and older parents, and Mike played music that appealed to both crowds. His emcee skills are excellent, and he was flexible with a few adjustments to the timeline throughout the night. Mike’s son JC worked our photobooth, and he was just as professional and friendly. His upbeat attitude and excitement for the day was well appreciated, and all of our guests were happy with their photobooth experiences. If you want a smooth, efficient wedding day with top tier vibes, Mike is the guy to hire!!

Jon was great at making announcements, (even though it wasn't planned) like when he had to tell people to go to cocktail hour. We also had a photobooth package with him and the attendant did such a great job running the booth. It was definitely the most popular event and our families still raves about the pictures they took! From the moment we met Jon, he was just so easy to talk to and knew exactly what we wanted for the day when we shared our vision. Jon is so professional, supportive, and positive, and I can't imagine having someone else on our special day. He is definitely worth the money and I would hire him again without a doubt for any event!

Ceresville Mansion was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the beginning, the staff was caring, quick to respond, and considerate of all our requests. The venue itself is an amazing space, with beautiful gardens that provided the perfect backdrop for our special day. The all-inclusive package they offered was an incredible value, and the vendors they recommended were truly outstanding. They worked with us to make so many custom requests a reality, and our wedding day was more beautiful and amazing than we could have even dreamed of. The food was insanely good, and the entire team at Ceresville Mansion contributed to making our wedding day absolutely perfect.

I cannot sing Emma’s praises enough!!! We hired Emma as a month-of coordinator and are fully convinced she is the sole reason our wedding went off without a hitch! We had over 200 people and our ceremony was at a different location from our reception—no small undertaking—and from the moment we started working together, we knew our wedding was in good hands. Emma is extremely organized and has the perfect demeanor for this type of work. When I was actively pulling my hair out with stress (and a venue that was less than forthcoming about a conflict with our event space), Emma stepped up and made sure everything went smoothly, all while remaining calm, cool and collected. Emma was SO easy to work with and is a pleasure to be around. She also has a great inventory of items to bolster your décor—we ended up renting a card box and table numbers from her that she printed and designed with our names on it! She helped us hone our vision and refine our timeline, all while making sure everything was finalized to our liking! She put out every fire that popped up and truly felt like our wedding day guardian angel. Do yourself a favor and book Simply Grater Events!!!

From the moment we booked Chanteclaire Farm for our wedding, the team there was punctual, professional, and truly caring throughout the entire process. The venue itself is gorgeous, with a cozy and eclectic atmosphere that made all of our guests feel right at home. They went above and beyond to help us with last minute changes to the seating arrangements, and even took us around in their golf cart to capture stunning sunset photos on the hilltop. We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding day, and we are so grateful to the Chanteclaire team for making it all possible.

Caroline and her team provided the flowers for our recent wedding at Brookside Gardens and they were absolutely breathtaking! We provided some inspiration photos as well as our wedding colors, and we could not believe how stunning the flowers were… Just look at those colors! We also appreciate that the flowers are locally grown, and Caroline selected the perfect in-season blooms for our wedding. Caroline has been a delight to work with and we recommend her 100%!
