The Best Wedding Vendors in Mayo, MD

“This man is magic. Alex was extremely patient with me during the entire planning process knowing it’s very overwhelming trying to narrow down songs to specific moments. Especially when both me and my husband love all different types of music. He communicated clearly with what we needed to select throughout the day, and anything we hadn’t decided on he understood what vibe was and nailed it. Everyone was on the dance floor from the moment formalities ended to the last song of the night (Cinema by Skrillex of course). I asked for a party and Alex delivered exactly that (& better)! Our friends and family still talk about "how great the DJ was". Trusting Alex with such an important part of the day we did not take lightly and he absolutely exceeded expectations. Our wedding felt like something out of a movie, we couldn’t ask for a better party.”

Living my best life in suburban Maryland. I love art and being creative, so photography just seemed like the next step after being an actor for 15 years. Storytelling is a HUGE part of my life- whether it’s sitting around the dinner table recounting funny memories or looking at old photographs of my own family. Some of the best stories in the world were told without words. I am a D&D, gaming, and SQL nerd, I have a newfound love of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and I am a proud plant mom. Never been married before? I'm here to hold your hand.

“LMM Photography is incredible. She's down-to-earth and proactive. She's affordable and creative. She's perfect. Hire her, you will be amazed! She made planning easy and fun. She was always available when I had questions or ideas. When it came to the big event I almost forgot she was there to take photos. She was so diligent and helped me avoid the major bridal stress. She even saved our wedding photos! A bridesmaid had a major issue with bridesmaid dress and waited until the day of the wedding to let me know. So on the big day I was doing alterations, which pushed me back by hours. I tried really hard not to let it upset me (because things happen) and I thought I had missed doing the getting ready photos--little did I know that LMM was doing her thing while I was trying not to panic because I was surprised when I received my wedding photos to see that she also took some of THE BEST getting ready photos. Not to mention, because she took initiative, she put me back on track and I literally got to the ceremony on time! I was so grateful, I cried when I finally got to see the photos knowing that someone had actually captured those memories. I have now hired her for SEVERAL photography sessions, and I will continue to do so! Thank you, Laura!!”

“I cannot recommend Maddy and Cass enough for someone who needs help on their big day! I was pretty set on planning when it came to vendors, however I was completely lost on the logistical aspect of the wedding day itself. Maddy and Cass were lifesavers in creating the perfect timeline with plenty of Plan B options (which we utilized for weather!). They were so thorough, responding with the most thoughtful emails to some of my silly questions. We hired them for "wedding management", but they did so much more than that. They had an intro call with us, came to my house & met my parents, went to our walk through, had another final call, and were with us from the morning of the wedding day until midnight. They thought of creative solutions for me to address vendors when things got a little hairy, and even offered to reach out to my vendor for me. The day of packet they created was unbelievable. They were everything I needed to keep my day stress free.”

Do not hire ANY other photographer in the metro Washington, DC area if you want crystal clear, flattering, well-composed, and gorgeous photos of your wedding. Bethany is a delight to work with. She is calm, patient and considerate. She and her second shooter captured every conceivable aspect of our wedding that made it special to us and our guests. Bethany did it all with a smile.

“Our wedding day was made special by so many vendors, but Wendy Hickok Photography pushed our wedding above and beyond our expectations. We used Wendy for both our engagement photos and our wedding photos, and in each case she was incredibly flexible and her work was amazing. She allowed us to postpone our engagement photos until the cherry blossoms were in full bloom in Washington, DC, which is very hard to plan for! She braved frigid temperatures with us that day, but our engagement photos turned out amazing! To plan for our wedding photos, she came to our vineyard venue a couple of weeks before the wedding to make sure she knew what we wanted in our pictures, and made sure to fully execute that dream the day of our wedding. To this day, I still get compliments on our wedding and engagement photos as they turned out beautifully. Without hesitation, I give Wendy Hickok Photography 5 stars, and I imagine we will be using her services for photographing other life events in the future.”

Erin Kelleher Photography

Serves Mayo, MD

Residing on a country road, nestled between Washington, DC and Annapolis, MD, I can't help but pinch myself daily that I get to do what I love for a living. When I'm not capturing the love stories of the awesome couples I get to work with, you can find me loving every minute of life with my bald-headed husband, our sweet baby girl, and our big-eared pup.

“Long review coming, but I can't help myself. Erin was the best decision of my wedding! I cared about three things for my wedding, and photography was one of them. Finding a photographer was a daunting task since at the end of the day I knew I would leave with two things: my husband and my pictures. From the very beginning, Erin was a delight to work with. Photography, one of my top priorities, became my lowest stressor leading up to my wedding and the day of. Erin is a phenomenal communicator. She is clear, timely, and respectful. She asked about our photography desires, encouraged questions, and confirmed information to ensure that we achieved what we wanted. Erin always responded quickly which was so helpful when trying to coordinate everything needed for a wedding. The day of the wedding she and her second photographer, Monica (an absolute gem!!), were excellent communicators with all of the adults and children present when relaying what they wanted and needed us to do for photos. They helped with poses and gave amazing feedback (both positive and adjustments needed) throughout the day to help us feel comfortable and get good shots (neither my husband nor myself are natural at posing, but our photos turned out amazing)! Erin is calm, organized, and KIND (exactly what a couple needs during the planning process and on the wedding day)! Everything was clearly outlined prior to signing a contract. Once signing, you have a login to see all of your information in one place (contract, payments, questionnaire, etc.) which makes it so easy to keep track of everything related to our photography. As a Type A person, I so appreciated how clear and organized all of the information was. She has a second photographer included on the wedding day who helps keep track of the previously-determined photos (confirmed during a phone call) and ensures that everyone is in place so photos don't take a million hours. We were able to complete all pre- and post-ceremony pictures (we had a lot) in about an hour total for both. She was so sweet and made both of us feel unbelievably comfortable. She's someone you'll genuinely want to stay friends with after the wedding! Both Erin and Monica were so thorough and detailed. Not only did they review everything I didn't know I needed to think about prior to the wedding, but the day of the wedding they handled everything with such attention to detail that it completely removed all pressure from us and our families. Erin and Monica knew the photos we wanted and made sure to get all of them throughout the day. They constantly helped adjust my gown, veil, hair, and poses to ensure that not only the framing and lighting was perfect (which it was), but that there were no little details out of place that would drive OCD me crazy haha. They also brought tremendous equipment that allowed them to shoot multiple ways in multiple lighting scenarios. We were married in an old church, had a reception in a wood-paneled moody, dark room, and finished with photos at the Jefferson Memorial. Every single venue had perfectly lit photos. They both jumped around, walked up and down, switched out cameras, and straight up WORKED (at impeccable speed) to get us so many amazing angles and photos. On top of everything. Erin helped us create beautiful photo albums for us and our parents. To say Erin is worth the investment is the understatement of the century. We are forever grateful to her for capturing our important day!”

From the moment we started working together, she was professional, organized, and truly cared about making my vision come to life. On the big day, Kate brought such a calm and positive energy, which made getting ready so much fun and stress-free. My makeup was flawless and stayed perfect all day and night, even through happy tears and hours on the dance floor. She enhanced my natural beauty without making me feel overdone, and I felt so confident walking down the aisle. Not only did she work magic on me, but my bridal party couldn’t stop raving about how beautiful they felt too. Incredibly talented and a true artist.

Your world collided with ours because you are marrying the love of your life and now you need someone to document it in a way that will last for generations to come! We want your timeless memories to be shown to kids, then grandkids, and their kids and so on! The family tree is growing and we love being a part of that! We are suckers for the groom's face when he first sees his bride, for the dads trying to hold back tears, for the moments that make the wedding day the best day ever!

“If you are looking for a wedding photographer that will provide you with THE BEST magazine quality pictures, look no farther! After canceling our wedding 2 times due to Covid, Matt & I discussed the possibility of eloping to Jackson Hole, WY. I knew that Bob & Jamie have visited there enough to claim it as their 2nd home (lol) so I reached out for some advice/recommendations regarding the area & eloping. They not only offered a ton of knowledge about Jackson, they said they were available to travel and shoot our wedding. We booked them right away!!! They helped Matt & I EVERY step of the way. I said I wanted to be married inside in front of a large stone fireplace and have pictures taken outside with the snow covered mountains afterwards. They immediately went to work searching for hotels with stone fireplaces & locations (yes, multiple) for scenic wedding photos. Once those decisions were made, they helped select a restaurant for wedding dinner and plan our excursions. Bob even offered to be the tour guide for our snowmobile trip to Granite Hot Springs. These two went way above and beyond wedding photographers! Our wedding day was truly a dream come true (Hallmark movie worthy) and I can’t thank Jamie enough for capturing every part of it. She left no stone unturned. When we received the preview pics, I felt like a kid on Christmas morning. The photos were even better than I had hoped. She made us look like we were on a magazine cover! Northern Lights Photography was part of what made our elopement special”

“We booked Steel Toe Stiletto for our wedding after communicating with them via email, and we're so glad we did. Their sound and vibe were absolutely amazing - the introduction song was "Thunderstruck" by AC/DC, which set the perfect tone for the whole night. People are still talking about and asking us about our wedding celebration, and that is largely due to their incredible performance. They really knew how to get the party started and keep the energy high all night long. We couldn't have asked for a better band to make our wedding day so special and unforgettable.”
