spent a whole weekend here for my wedding. If you're looking for a stress free and organized wedding Chanel is your girl. She had a complete timeline for all things and makes sure the bride doesn't have to do a thing. Her venue is very beautiful, vintage, and just perfect! The rooms are beautiful, however the only downfall we had were the beds were not comfortable at all which made it difficult to fall asleep. We had her husband Jim officiate our wedding as well, he is just as helpful and sweet as Chanel is.

Boxwood Villa was an exceptional wedding venue for our special day. From start to finish, their communication was fast, efficient, and incredibly helpful. The quality of their work and the value they provided was unparalleled - the grounds were beautifully manicured, with an expansive woodland forest setting that created the perfect backdrop for our celebration. Nichole, our Grelen coordinator, was always available to answer our questions and provide guidance throughout the planning process. They have a wonderful selection of approved vendors, but also gave us the flexibility to work with our preferred tent provider.

The Depot in downtown Orange, Virginia is everything you could hope for in a special event venue. I have had the privilege of shooting 2 separate events in The Depot's event spaces, and I hope to return for more. Each space within the depot is thoughtfully designed with beautiful details, making it the perfect backdrop for any special celebration. I typically try to avoid indoor venues due to a general lack of quality lighting/backdrop opportunities as a photographer, but I have loved every minute that I've worked at The Depot. Everywhere you look presents a new backdrop opportunity, and the spaces are filled with ample natural light during the daytime. Working with the Grelen Events team is always a breeze, and they are eager to resolve any day-of questions or concerns. You really can't go wrong booking The Depot for your next celebration/event!

Market at Grelen is such a perfect choice for your wedding venue. We would choose it over and over again. We love the Market so much and the best thing is that it's open to the public as an actual nursery and place where you can hike, get drinks, have lunch, and get your Christmas tree even long after your wedding. Most places you only return to for other weddings. It's so special that you can revisit. I definitely recommend booking Spotswood Lodge and Boxwood Villa for your weekend stay as well so you're all in one small area. The team at Grelen are amazing. They always checked in on us and kept the process flowing. Morgan was so good to us throughout the entire process and made me feel so comfortable and at ease that everything would flow. She is so awesome! The venue itself is STUNNING. We loved using the whole property for ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception so our guests got to see the whole property. Gorgeous views and so many fun options to add on like ice cream, fire pits, cookies, AND they let you pick out plants to use which really adds to the tent. I ABSOLUTELY recommend Grelen. I'm obsessed.

Kim Hayden was amazing to work with. Kim thought of (and remembered) every detail I told her. She was 100% on board with my vision and made it happen. I was able to use my own china which I had collected for my special day. We got married on the 10th Green, had the cocktail hour under the Pavilion and then our reception was in the Ballroom. The Glenmore had a champagne wall for my use, linens, lanterns, bars, and even candle holders. We added some of our own touches, but Glenmore is full service. From the prosecco wall, the the lighted hedge behind our cake, to putting our printed menus in the perfect spot. Our wedding was perfection. The views are phenomenal. The food was delicious - we served buffet style to make sue of my china and the kitchen did it all right. We had plated salads (tomato and mozzarella) then buffet steak, shrimp in grits, gnocchi with vegetables, roasted potatoes and asparagus. Everything was amazing. The Glenmore was so accommodating. They let us add a sparkling rose and rose to our wine choices - which felt so right with our theme. They had a hedge to put behind our cake table, which we added a personalized sign to, flowers and fairy lights. Glenmore let us have a photo booth in the ball room lobby, and we used their gorgeous farm tables to set out framed photos and favors. I had the absolute best time at my wedding. I highly recommend the Glenmore as a venue. It has gorgeous views, super friendly staff, they are diligent and 100% know how to throw a wedding. I have no regrets entrusted them with my special day and I have the absolute best memories. Thank you Kim and Molly!

Hi there. I originally hail from Georgia, but am so happy to now call Charlottesville my home. When I'm not chasing down perfect sunlight, you can usually find me tucked away somewhere with a book, writing, enjoying life with my partner Charles, styling my 1920s home, or snuggling with my Frenchie pup, Finny.

Awarded Best of Zola
Audra Jones was, to put it simply, the perfect person to photograph our wedding. We knew what we wanted - a small, intimate gathering of our closest friends and family, full of life and personality, but none of the hassle weddings are usually known for. But finding a photographer who could capture that feeling seemed like a challenge - until we met Audra. She didn't just capture the most important moments of our big day, she felt like part of them. She was incredibly professional and courteous throughout the entire event, nimbly bouncing around the ceremony to capture the perfect pictures without obstructing anyone's view. And when it came time for the real party to begin, she effortlessly blended into the crowd as they danced the night away during the reception. Her secret? She danced right alongside our guests! We received so many compliments from friends and family alike, praising Audra's ability to make them feel comfortable as she snapped their photos. Audra was a joy to work with in every aspect of planning our wedding. She had a vision but was always willing to collaborate, she was well organized but never strict, and she was so quick to get finished photos back to us, without sacrificing quality. If you're looking for a photographer for your wedding, we can't recommend Audra Jones Photography enough!

My son recently got married at Earlyhouse, and the entire experience was nothing short of perfect. The venue was gorgeous. Everywhere you looked, there was a stunning backdrop for wedding photos. We were especially grateful to have the day-of coordinated by Katie, who worked behind the scenes to coordinate with all of us (coming from Florida, Texas, Maryland, Tennessee, & New York) and our vendors, she even managed my sons wedding timeline. It was evident that she genuinely cared about making the day special for our family. Her dedication and professionalism shined upon us the whole time. Because of Katie's expertise and dedication, we were able to relax and truly enjoy the day without any stress or concerns.

  • Fine art style
  • Serves Orange, VA

Each event, at it’s root, is a story. It’s a unique story of that moment in time- a newborn coming home, a bride and groom embracing or a grandmother on her 85th birthday - and it's an important moment to hold still. My role as a photographer is to tell that story as honestly as I can. I want people to look back on these memories and remember it exactly as they experienced it. That’s why I aim for transparency in my photography that neither adds nor takes away from the moments that I am documenting.

Awarded Best of Zola
Meredith was an absolute joy to work with! Her warm, fun energy instantly put us at ease, allowing us to feel comfortable and be ourselves, which truly shines through in our photos. She has an incredible eye for not only capturing the background, lighting, and surroundings perfectly but also bringing out the unique personality of everyone she photographs. We did our engagement photoshoot in NYC, which captured a cool, chic city love story, and our wedding day photoshoot at a vineyard in Charlottesville, VA, on a beautiful summer day. The vineyard setting was so dreamy, and Meredith effortlessly captured the natural beauty of the day, making every moment look timeless and elegant. When you look at her pictures, it feels like you’re reliving those moments. Her shots are full of life—not stiff or posed—but vibrant and authentic, capturing the true essence of each moment. Meredith was also incredibly kind and easy to work with, offering thoughtful advice both before and during the shoot. This was our first time having professional photos taken, but thanks to her, we felt relaxed from the start. Her work is a perfect mix of classy, modern, and elegant, with a splash of fun and a seize-the-day vibe. We’re already excited to work with her again—hopefully for our next photoshoot, when we have a baby! Cannot recommend her enough - just do it, book her!!!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Orange, VA

From developing black and white images in the darkroom to capturing day-to-day happenings as photo manager of the high school yearbook, my camera became an extension of me. I wanted to document the moments of the people I cared about - whether mundane or significant - and create something beautiful. Fast forward ten years and I’ve gone on to complete my Bachelor’s, Master’s, and clinical to become a registered dietitian nutritionist. I’ve had a thriving career at UVA Medical Center for the past five years and witnessed firsthand both the value and fragility of human life.

Awarded Best of Zola
Lucy was an absolute joy to work with. Her passion for photography and for people shines through in every interaction we had over the course of our planning months. The photos from both our engagement session and wedding are so genuine and full of life! Lucy was always realistic about timelines and deliverables, but was always prompt (if not early!) in presenting them. She obviously does her homework on photo shoot locations, lighting and timing to help her clients understand their best options for photos, but is also willing to be flexible to fit each couple. Her natural talent and know-how gave us great pictures that we will treasure!

Less than a mile away from both the Barn & Pavilion and the Grand Hall is our Albemarle Estate at Trump Winery, a 26,000-square foot, 11 bedroom mansion that provides overnight lodging for guests and a honeymoon night option for couples.

My October 2019 wedding at Trump Winery, more than, exceeded my expectations. It was everything I have ever wanted my wedding to be!! The venue itself is astonishing. We were married at The Chapel there and got ready at he Bridal Suite at the Barn (which was breathtaking in itself). The autumn views at the winery in Virginia was just the cherry on top. The event manager Coleen Larson was such a joy to work with & made the experience seamless. She helped me every step of the way, even with a short time frame we had to work with. We planned it all in less than 3 months. We have received so many compliments of our intimate wedding (25-30 guests) & the pictures and videos from it are just amazing. Virginia Schweninger, the harpist was also phenomenal. Together, we we picked each song to make my wedding special & it truly turned out wonderfully. I would do this over and over again, if I could. My husband was also very impressed. We could not have asked for more! Beautiful!!! just beautiful.

  • Serves Orange, VA

My favorite things on earth are love, fashion, flowers, sunshine, family, humor, music, architecture, and food—these are the components that make a wedding day. I make art documentaries about love. I will not direct you, and I will not apply a filter over your footage so it looks like a basic wedding video. Every couple and every occasion is given their own special light and feel. I am obsessed with capturing your event in the realist way possible, meanwhile creating a piece of art you will cherish forever. I fixate on expressions, color, texture, light, and composition.

Amanda was absolutely incredible! She was the videographer for my sister's wedding and she did such a great job that I couldn't have chosen anyone other than her for mine! She captured every unforgettable moment and showcased how special that day was to my husband and I! I have watched the video countless times because she was able to capture all the joy throughout the room and of course - the dancing! Amanda's turn around time was surprisingly short and she was open to suggestions, which she worked on promptly. I absolutely loved working with Amanda and I would refer her 11 times out of 10!

Hello, We LOVE working with Cake Fight. Anytime we hire them, our guests compliment the music and leave us positive reviews. More importantly, they pack the house. What is normally a somewhat tranquil, quiet winery quickly becomes a joyful dancing hall full of intoxicating energy. Small children to retirement aged guests ditch their tastings to cut a rug and sing along. Our staff dances their way through their shifts with a smile. We highly recommend locking these folks in for your wedding or private event.

For over seventeen years my business has focused on weddings. It is my goal to create the atmosphere you have envisioned and help make your ceremony and reception flow smoothly. My style is low key and can be summed up in a few words as, "Elegant Fun". The day should be approached with elegance and poise, but at the same time remembering it is also a celebration. After all, that’s why you have invited your friends and family to your wedding. I love what I do. I love music, and I love weddings. I take great pride in what I do but my goal is not only to play music; it is to ensure that every wedding I do is better than the one before.

Awarded Best of Zola
For our wedding at Keswick Vineyards, we were given a list of prospective DJs to choose from. After inquiring about their recommendation for a DJ that knew how to throw an amazing dance party, we were given TD’s information. From the detailed pre-wedding questionnaire and phone conversations to the day of our wedding, T.D. was very professional, knowledgeable, and a lot of fun. We also used T.D. for our ceremony amplification. We are happy to report that we did not have any microphone malfunctions! Most importantly, the reception was truly a party from the time we were introduced until the time we made our escape. From the lighted monogram initials, choreographed dances, and a variety of music, he made sure we had everything we asked for. T.D. kept us to our timeline and kept the guests aware of the happenings around the venue. We are so thankful to have had him as our D.J., as many memories were made on the dance floor that night. 5 stars from us!
