DJ Karizma did an amazing job MCing our wedding. We really started with nothing to give him, but his experience lead us in the direction of music genres we liked and really gave us inspiration. He also had some fun bride/groom games he suggested we could do, and really knows how to read the guests we had. He was very interactive and responsive with us before and during the event. His energy and enthusiasm for our special day kept the party rolling and always had people wanting to keep dancing throughout the night. The price was very good, compared to other prices we got quoted for. A 10/10 DJ and would suggest to anybody looking for an experienced/interactive/and responsive DJ.

Hi, my name is Priscilla Britton. I have been a licensed HMUA since 2011. I attended Rudy and Kelly Academy, a Paul Mitchell partner school. I have taken lessons from certified MAC artists. I furthered my education by completing bridal styling / updo courses from the Bridal Beauty Salon by Lati, hairstyling course with Stephanie Brinkoff from Hair and Makeup by Steph, Heather Chapman online styling education, Kristina Gasperas Hair and Makeup Academy, hairstyling courses by Renee Marie Bridal Hairstyling Academy and hairstyling training with global, award winning styling educator Andreeva Nata.

Prissy did hair and make up for my wedding in 2022 for me, my mom and grandmother, and she was fabulous! She absolutely made my vision come to life, is incredibly easy to work with, and extremely talented! I've never felt as beautiful as I did on my wedding day, and that is how every bride should feel. I recommended Prissy for my best friend's wedding, and she pulled off even more magic. My husband and I had a photo shoot done for our 2023 Christmas cards, and you know I of course had Prissy do my hair and makeup for that too! She is my go-to should be yours!

It doesn’t get any better than Signature DJs. We booked Signature DJs for ceremony/reception music, Photo Booth, and uplighting. Brandon and Kellie were more than helpful during the wedding planning process. Signature DJs periodically sent me emails to remind me of anticipated steps to keep me on track. I had already booked my Day-Of Coordinators, but had I not I definitely would have booked Kellie! On the day of our wedding, Signature DJs arrived early and easily set up. Meredith with the photo booth was amazing! Our guests loved the customized photobooth strips! We are so glad that we booked Signature DJs because our wedding would not have been as perfect as it was without their services!

Joseph and Rob of Riverwood Designs are the best in the business. I booked Riverwood Designs for my May 2024 wedding, at The Maine of Williamsburg, for bridal party flowers and floral table arrangements, as well as a Day-Of Coordination package. Booking Joseph and Rob was one of the best decisions I made during my 2-year long wedding planning process. Joseph was a life-savior during the planning process, keeping me calm and confident that my day would be nothing but perfect. And it was exactly that. On the day of my wedding, Joseph and Rob arrived promptly and delivered the most BEAUTIFUL flowers. I am so glad that I chose to go with real flowers, as opposed to wood or silk flowers. The arrangements looked and smelled amazing. The proposal that we had worked on prior to the day of in no way did the actual flowers justice. They were even more amazing than I could have ever imagined. For the florals, we chose to include the orange flowers in only the bridal bouquet. Also including this same orange flower on only the groom’s boutonnière. This was the perfect way for me and my groom to feel special and different from the rest of our bridal party. Book Riverwood Designs NOW! For all your floral and planning/coordinating needs. I am so thankful that I did and I cannot recommend them enough.

I can’t speak highly enough about Alaina. From booking to the wedding day, she was phenomenal. She started with a questionnaire to discuss my vision, skincare, and what makeup I currently the use. The trial was so much FUN and she took everything I said into consideration. Come the wedding day, she made all of my bridesmaids feel so comfortable. I had girls who like heavy makeup, girls who like minimal, and everything in between. She accommodated everyone’s needs and my friends have never looked more beautiful! As for my makeup, my skin has never looked so flawless! All night everyone commented on my makeup, saying it was pristine. It lasted all through the night. Photos, dinner, and TONS of dancing, everything stayed perfectly. She even gave us little touch up kits and straws so we wouldn’t mess up our lips. Thank you, Alaina, for making me feel so beautiful on my wedding day!

My name is Naytza Pato, I'm from Puerto Rico, bilingual and living in Virginia for 12 years. I am passionate about decoration,coordination and planning because I believe they have the power to transform spaces and create meaningful experiences. It all started when 5 years ago I became the event coordinator of my church. We've been in official business for two years now and I LOVE what we do. Ultimately, what fuels my passion for decoration and planning is the ability to bring beauty and meaning into people's lives. It's the joy on someone's face when they walk into a space I've decorated and feel a sense of wonder or nostalgia.

From the moment we started planning our wedding with The Bliss & Co LLC, we knew we were in good hands. Naytza and her team were incredibly friendly, fast to respond, and highly professional throughout the entire process. Their attention to detail and commitment to making our day special was truly above and beyond. Naytza was amazing to work with - she made us feel reassured that everything would go smoothly, kept us informed every step of the way, and even came a day early to be at our rehearsal. Her great communication and ability to keep us on schedule made the whole experience stress-free.

Awarded Best of Zola
We recently got married at Gala 417, and the entire experience was fantastic! The venue is absolutely breathtaking, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about how stunning everything was. Working with the Gala 417 team, especially Sarah and Lyndsey, made the planning process enjoyable and stress-free. They were incredibly responsive and attentive, always quick to answer questions and ensure that our wedding day vision came to life in a way that felt uniquely ours. Lyndsey, our day-of coordinator, was amazing! She handled everything flawlessly throughout the morning and early afternoon, and we truly appreciated how well-organized and professional she was. Even though there were a couple of small bumps after her departure, such as the DJ needing a reminder for speeches, and a few of our selected beer options running out earlier than expected, the staff still managed to keep everything running smoothly. To future brides, I would recommend clearly emphasizing any specific beverage preferences during your catering and blueprint meetings if you or your guests have favorites to avoid any disappointments. We were especially excited about the food after trying it at our catering meeting—it was delicious, and we even bragged to our guests about it! However, on the day of the wedding, the food served was bland and inconsistently prepared. We had requested steaks to be cooked medium, but after the fact, many of our guests shared that their filets ranged from rare to well-done, with some even mentioning gristle or fat in the cut—which shouldn’t happen with a filet. This was a bit disappointing, especially considering how much we were looking forward to the meal. Overall, Gala 417 went above and beyond to make our wedding day truly unforgettable. We would absolutely recommend this venue to future couples—between the gorgeous space and the dedication of the staff, our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more. We are so grateful to the entire Gala 417 team for making our day so special!

Romance and elegance await you at James River Country Club. Let us provide you with the fairy tale wedding you’ve always imagined. Exchanging your vows on the beach with the sun setting in the background, or a formal ceremony in our Formal Ballroom or the Oldest Golf Museum in the world can provide an alternative to more traditional ceremony venues. While you are taking photographs with your wedding party and family, your guests can be enjoying cocktails and hors d’oeuvres with panoramic views of the James River.

We had our wedding there last month, a small one with 60 guests. Tiffanie was great coordinating everything, she is very knowledgeable and always made me feel like there was nothing to worry about and it wasn’t, everything went perfect, very smooth and she really took care of every detail without me or my family having to worry. The staff are great, friendly, professional and they always looked happy to take care of our guests. I also work in the hospitality industry, and I was impressed. The food was delicious, we opted for a plated dinner with 3 choices plus a vegan one for a couple of guests and every single one was great. Bartender was also on point and my guests were very happy about that. Now about the venue itself, it’s beautiful, we had the ceremony outside by the water and reception indoors at the ballroom, the bridal suit is great, it has a lot of space for everyone to get ready and access to everything we could possibly need. It is a busy place with a lot of members so there is a chance of other events to be happening at the same time but trust me when I say you won’t even notice, they do a great job with scheduling and keeping events separated.

LOOK NO FURTHER, CHRISTINE IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!! I feel so lucky to have found Christine for my wedding makeup because she was everything I was looking for and more! I did a makeup trial with someone else that went terribly and was scrambling to find a new makeup artist less than two months before my wedding. I am truly so grateful I found Christine. Her talent speaks for itself, just check out her Instagram page (https://www.instagram.com/christinecouturecormier/). I had my first video consultation with Christine the day after I found her, and we discussed what went wrong with the first person and what I was hoping to achieve for my wedding day look. Not only was it clear that she knew what I was looking for, but she also had amazing ideas about the entire makeup experience on my wedding day that I hadn’t even thought of. Your makeup artist is SO important because you’ll have these photos forever and they’re the first vendor you interact with so they help set the mood for the day. Christine was an incredible presence the whole time she was there. She and the second makeup artist Lindsey made me and my entire bridal party look and feel amazing! Christine made incredible content with me and my bridal party and she was also there for my first look. She was the perfect calming presence I needed for the most exciting but stressful moment of the day. She helped fluff my dress and took photos and videos I was able to have immediately after the first look. You want to feel confident that your makeup artist is going to make you look and feel amazing, and I promise you can trust Christine with that! My guests were raving about my makeup! I felt done up and more special than my everyday makeup, but I still felt and looked like myself. Also the makeup lasted all night long! She is worth every single penny!! If you pick Christine to be your makeup artist you will not regret it!

Growing up, my mom would take pictures of us on her Kodak. On Saturdays, we would go to the Wal-Mart, have them developed and organize the images into our albums. Throughout the years, we would look through those albums together and those moments are very core memories for my family and I. This is what I want to share with others. Each emotional interaction on a wedding day is an intricate fiber weaved together to create a wonderful story. And I want to share that gift with others - to relive and feel that warmth all over again.

Holly V Rice Photography is an engagement and wedding photography business based out of both Hampton Roads and Richmond, VA! I describe my style as warm, classic, and joyful. I love celebrating LOVE in all of its forms! Nothing makes me happier than getting to know a couple and getting to capture their special moments.

Holly was so great to work with! She did a great job throughout the day and the lead up! Highly recommend booking her for extra events leading up to the wedding! Engagement photos were included in the package we purchased from her, but we also booked her to take photos at our engagement party and rehearsal dinner. My husband is not a huge photo person, so having those extra opportunities to meet with Holly and get everyone more comfortable together really led to some great photos! She is bright and bubbly and helped keep everything running smoothly. We also had some trouble getting our bouquets put together and she jumped right in and helped us make sure they were looking perfect for the walk down the aisle (and the photos!). Holly captured everything perfectly - from the serious "formal" photos, to the funny moments and the dance party at the end. She captured everything so perfectly! Holly was absolutely the right choice when it came to capturing some of our most important moments 3

IMAGINE... Having your special day at our newly renovated resort: Kiln Creek Golf Club and Resort. Your guests will love that they were a part of your special day. Kiln Creek Golf Club and Resort is the ideal location to host your next event. Your guests will be that they overjoyed that they are only steps away from their beautifully renovated hotel rooms that capture the essence of rest and relaxation. They will be in awe of the beauty of the resort and the beautification of the community and trails around them. Here at Kiln Creek Golf Club and Resort our guests can nourish themselves with our in-house catering, enjoy a round or two of golf, take a swim or lounge by the outdoor pool, exercise in our new fitness facility, play a game of tennis, and dine at our NEW restaurant, NEST Kitchen & Taphouse during their stay.

As I write this review, I am reminded of all of the stressful thoughts a bride goes through as she plans her big day with the love of her life, and then I remember how great it was that I found the best location and person to work with to coordinate our big day! Ruthanne and her entire event staff at Kiln Creek Golf Club & Resort deserve all of the love and recognition for helping to orchestrate a seamless event from start to finish. I was unfamiliar with venues in this area, and my now husband and I searched from the Outer Banks to Newport News to find something that fit our vision and price point, and Kiln Creek did all of that. For both of us, it was important that the venue gave us that "This is it" feeling! All of the venues we looked at in Suffolk, Norfolk, and VA Beach were just missing something. Then Kiln Creek Golf Club & Resort popped up on my searches and I am sure glad it did! Ruthanne went out of her way to make sure all of my questions were answered and that she saw my vision properly for the big day. That is what was so amazing, that she puts every bride’s vision as a huge priority and she was there to make sure we set up times to meet to go over everything in fine detail. She even added extra special touches because she wanted to, and they were perfect. We stayed at the Lodge, ate at the Nest for dinner one evening prior to the event as well as breakfast the day after the wedding, and the rooms were spacious, beds comfortable and food was delicious! Shout out to Jordan, Christine, Crystal and all of the other amazing servers and staff on location! My husband and I had the most amazing day of our lives! All thanks to Ruthanne and her amazing team, from the chef, to the recommended vendors, who were equally awesome, for seeing my vision and making sure everything came together, perfectly! Thank you, Ruthanne and all of the staff at Kiln Creek!

I like to think of myself as a lil bit southern, lil bit punk, and a whole lotta rock-n-roll. I’m a PBR lover, hardcore show corner dweller, disco ball queen. You’re going to hear me say, “hell yeah, brother” more than twice, Dale Earnhardt is an icon, and Dolly Parton is royalty. You'll love me if you're a little trashy, always classy, badass, sometimes chic, forever romantic. Unwedding, editorial, nontraditional, offbeat, colorful, joyful, film-inspired, and disco vibes always. If you like, I'll wear a rainbow suit, I'll definitely dance with your mom, and I will always be a champion for you and your lover.

Kathleen is AMAZING. She did our engagement photos and I cannot speak highly enough. She was so cool to work with, had a great eye for location, and was so fantastic with coordinating our forever-awkward selves to get some incredible shots. We both get very anxious on camera but she made the whole experience so safe and welcoming that we ended up having a so much fun. Her communication throughout has been absolute top tier - we knew exactly what to expect every step of the way - and the end result is beyond our wildest dreams. 10/10, cannot recommend her enough and can’t wait to work with her again in the future!

Kierstin was my sister's wedding planner. My sister Alyssa had a same intimate wedding on a plantation in Hawaii. Kierstin made sure the wedding went great and She got reinvolved in with the other wedding guest and made sure everyone had fun time. I was my sister's maid of honor and I strongly felt relieved that my sister and I did not have to worry about anything. I would highly recommend her for your next event.

Hey Friend! Photography is my absolute passion and it shines through my images!!! I live for the RAW moments... the true emotion of the day. Tears that fall during a first look, the last hug with your loved ones before you walk down the aisle, and the ear to ear smiles once you've said "I Do!" I blend candid and guided shots, giving you the freedom to move about the day to enjoy it, while never having the thought of “what should I be doing” running through your mind! You'll be able to look back on your wedding photos 40 years from now and FEEL the emotions you felt that day. That's my promise to you!

Hey there! I'm Hannah, your go-to, candid-photo-loving wedding storyteller.I'm Hannah Hardy, a passionate wedding photographer based in the heart of Virginia. With an eye for the moments that matter most, I'm here to ensure that your special day is not only captured but transformed into a visual narrative that you'll treasure forever. My journey as a wedding photographer began with a deep fascination for emotions, connections, and the unspoken language of love.

There are no words to describe the breathtaking photos that we received back from our October 14, 2023 wedding!! Every single picture is stunning and there isn’t one single picture that we (even a little bit) don’t like. Hannah and her SIL showed up and quickly got to work. That day it was raining from dawn until the start of the ceremony and they showed up with smiles and raincoats to get every shot imaginable. They not only captured the sentiments of us but also captured the party and joy in everyone else there. I can not recommend Quinn Photography enough and will 1000 times out of 10 pick them for all of my photography needs! If you’re still in limbo on finding a photographer rather it be for a wedding, family, couple, birthday, holiday or whatever your heart desires stop what you’re doing and reach out to them.

A former newspaper photographer & editor, I truly love to capture authentic moments as they happen - commonly known as lifestyle photography. My favorite photos are storytelling moments filled with happiness & love. I'm also a sucker for gorgeous light, sunsets, trees, and ALL naturally beautiful outdoor settings. I'm a bit of a romantic and LOVE catching those in between funny moments when no one thinks I'm watching. My Client for Life program evolved when so many couples came back to me for newborn and family sessions - I LOVE building that relationship and becoming "their" photographer for life.
