Mark was hands down THE best part of our wedding! He was so helpful during the whole planning process. Any questions we had he gave us the best advice. He doubles down as a “Day of Coordinator” as well, making sure the timeline is down to a tee. The lights he set up in our reception was like nothing I’ve seen at any other wedding. He even had us throw down on the turntable and it was such a fun and unique moment that everyone loved!! It really was electric during party time! Mark is also so friendly and personable. He was our favorite vendor to work with. My advice is to stop scrolling now and BOOK THIS MAN for your wedding!!! You will not regret it. THANK YOU MARK FOR THE BEST DAY EVER!!!!

Bianca is incredibly talented and just the best! She did the makeup for my May 2024 Indian fusion wedding (both for my wedding day and my Sangeet), and I could not have felt more beautiful. Something that was incredibly important to me when deciding on a MUA was finding an artist that is well experienced with a variety of skin tones. Bianca absolutely killed it while doing a variety of different looks. Leading up to my wedding, I went to Bianca for a few facials. The actual experience of the facial was so relaxing, and my skin was so hydrated and glowing leading up to my wedding. After my wedding, I also asked Bianca if she could do a makeup class for me. She had made me feel truly so beautiful (but still like myself). The class made makeup approachable for someone who has very limited makeup experience. She was SO thorough afterwards in all the materials she sent me with instructions and products listed to be able to recreate the looks we went over. I cannot recommend Bianca enough for all of her services!!

Hi, my name is Katrina! I have been coordinating weddings for almost over a decade now. I started doing weddings with my mother who was an event planner and designer at the time and fell in love with the process and being part of such a beautiful occasion. I work with clients directly from weeks to several months to help curate, design, execute making their dream come to fruition!

I had the pleasure of working with Katrina as our wedding coordinator and I cannot speak highly enough of her attention to detail and meticulous planning. Though I had 15 people in my wedding, due to covid, it still felt like a dream come true getting married that day. She had planned a mini surprise for my best friends to come and see me before I got married which was very special. I thank Katrina for making my wedding a memorable one and even though it wasn’t traditional because of covid, she was still able to bring out what I had envisioned for my covid-19 wedding. Her quality of service was superb and I highly recommend.

It is my joy and privilege to serve couples by transforming their dreams into a celebration that will be remembered for a lifetime. With a commitment to intentionality, every detail is carefully curated to reflect your unique love story. Thoughtfulness is at the heart of our approach, ensuring that every element resonates with meaning and significance. It's our promise to prioritize your vision and desires throughout the entire planning process.

Sarah and the rest of the Events by Rose team were the MVPs of our wedding planning process. From the start Sarah took time to get to know us as a couple, to ensure our wedding day reflected who we are. Sarah was always 10 steps ahead, thinking about every little detail of our special day. Her organization was extremely impressive to see first hand. Even the vendors we spoke with face-to-face raved about her organization, professionalism, and how easy it is to work with her. I think it speaks volumes that everyone she interacts with (clients and vendors alike) love to work with her. She is outstanding at balancing all the moving parts of a wedding with ease, and always made sure we felt comfortable with every step of the process. Sarah always took the time to help us finetune even the smallest of details, making sure the day would include everything we wanted. So many of our friends have said the wedding process was one of the most stressful times in their lives, but we did not have that experience at all and this is hugely attributed to Sarah and her team. The experience was enjoyable and exciting, and we never once found ourselves overwhelmed. We would have never been able to make it to our wedding day while still having fun, if we didn’t have Sarah leading our team. On the day of our wedding, Sarah and her team were OUTSTANDING! We felt cared for by each member of the team and our guests felt the entire day flowed perfectly, all thanks to Sarah. Every small detail was planned out and went exactly as planned. Sarah went above and beyond, making sure we had everything we needed, all while managing our vendors and guests. If you are wondering if you should hire Events by Rose for your wedding the answer is absolutely yes! Thanks again Sarah and the Events by Rose team for everything you did, we literally could not have done it without you. You helped make our perfect wedding day a reality!

I understand how it feels to be overwhelmed with options and not see yourself in the inspiration. Like you, I'm frustrated by the pressures placed on couples to have your wedding a certain way. No one should feel stuck doing things like everyone else. Your story is unique, just like you. I embrace comfort through natural storytelling. Fostering a relaxed wedding environment to capture love stories cherished for generations. Collector of tattoos and vintage cameras. Ravens fan and UFC convert. Always appreciating good whiskey and snuggles with my golden retrievers.

You should just stop reading this and book Nicole for your wedding now. Her ability to create warm, authentic photography that truly captures the moment is unmatched. Not only is she a gifted photographer, but she truly gets it when it comes to the day of the wedding. She did so well helping us transition from the ceremony into photos and then into our grand entrance. She made sure to snag us for "golden hour" when the sun was going down to capture the incredible shot below of us with the Bay Bridge. Nicole knows what she is doing and has got your back from beginning to end. And you will end up with the most amazing photography to remember your wedding day. I am very confident that she will soon make it big in the photography world as she becomes more and more known. Book her while you still can! p.s.-make sure you do the engagement shoot with her!!! This will help you all get to know each other and will put you more at ease when it comes to taking photos with her on the day of the wedding. :)

Hi, I'm Lee. Dreamer, Romantic, Storyteller... Growing up I didn't get it, I can tell you there is more than one photo of me with a bored and anxious look on my face. I can still hear my dad, who has now passed, say "if you don't sit still we will be here all day". As an adult, I now get it. Not being able to talk with my dad everyday or ask for advice, I'm so thankful to have albums full of family photos to hold in my hands. Fast forward to today as a DC wedding photographer, I want this for you. Nothing gives me more pleasure than capturing wedding photos that you and your family will cherish for a lifetime.

On top of that, Lee was there to calm my nerves! The smiles and the waves he’d give us assured me I was in good hands. The bridal party and guests loved him! He included a portable photo booth (not those giant ones that were in the way) which had the options for gifs or regular photos and were sent directly to our guests phones! Everyone loved it!!

Our focus on aesthetics means we plate and garnish food on white china platters and wood instead of just dropping off disposable aluminum pans for you to figure out!

Kristin with Hausfrau Catering did a phenomenal job with my daughter’s wedding at Balla Cloiche Vineyards. The food and service were beyond expectation. The appetizers at cocktail hour were great, particularly the mini crab cakes (even made gluten free due to some allergies). There were about 90 guests and everything went very smoothly, from the plated salad and soup courses, then main course stations set up with beef, poultry, seafood choices, as well as a vegan option for a couple of guests. Dessert shooters were delicious. The rentals (tables, place settings, etc) were great and communication and flexibility were exceptional from start to finish.

We picked Konrad because his candid shots were absolutely outstanding. Neither one of us really cared too much about formal portraits, so we thought he'd be perfect. Little did we know how skilled he is at turning even boring staged photos into really beautiful shots. He kept us relaxed, directed us well, and was super efficient. We barely noticed him throughout the event as he snuck around taking pictures and the shots did not disappoint. Our friends remarked that he was truly all over the place, doing the work of multiple people. If you want someone who will respect what you're looking for and produce works of art for a reasonable price, Konrad is the way to go.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m typically shy and not very photogenic, so I was extremely anxious about how our wedding photos would turn out. But after finding LaDonna through a Facebook ad, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry if she was our photographer. She took the time to understand me and helped me find my confidence in front of the camera. By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

Tay is absolutely amazing(her team is great too). Not only is she a vibe, she’s patient, professional, and made sure she captured every important moment on wedding day. Our engagement pictures, wedding photos and video were FIRE. It almost felt like she was apart of our family. The level of comfort we felt with her was unmatched. Instead of a phone conversation, we had our consultation over a video call which made the experience more personable. I’ll never forgot the night before my wedding she called to check in to make sure I was okay and talk about how the day was going to play as far as photos and video went, she was the ONLY vendor on my team to do so. Delivery was exceptional!!! You won’t regret having her, trust me!!!

Hello! We are a husband and wife company. We have covered over 1000 weddings in less than 5 years all across the USA, Canada, and Mexico. We love to travel so much that we keep our prices affordable- giving us the opportunity to cover all over the USA (no travel fees). Our most popular package is our Red Carpet which gives our clients up to 10 hours of photo and video coverage, 505+ edits, and 2 wedding videos (with the whole ceremony). Check out our FB or Youtube for HUNDREDS of weddings we shot in the past.

We were so impressed by 505 media and their quick responses and quality of photo/video they took! From the initial phases of planning, they were quick to respond and eager to help in the planning process of making sure timelines were manageable. They were able to capture all of the milestones during the day and were even willing to hop on our party bus when we wanted footage of the wedding party driving around! We were so impressed by how quick the photos were delivered! We received a text while on our honeymoon the week after our wedding that our edited photos were done and one week later we received all our pictures! You don’t hear that often from photography companies! We also watched our wedding video trailer today (which was delivered in less than 2 months from our wedding) and can’t stop watching it! I would recommend 505 media to anyone!!

Greetings! My name is Lionel and I am a full time traveling photographer from New Jersey that specializes in Weddings and Events on the east coast. I've been practicing both photography and videography for going on 10 years now and from the moment I picked up a camera I absolutely fell in love with it. Its difficult to not sound cliche but capturing once in a lifetime moments and then seeing the reaction of clients and their families is a rush and satisfaction that you just can not get anywhere else. Not everyone in life is able to realize their passion but I am thankful that I have found mine and I wouldn't trade it for the world.

I truly enjoyed working with the team, my Photos and Video were absolutely amazing. He made us extremely comfortable in front of the camera and while providing top tier customer service.

I am an expert planner with a passion for weddings. Prior to wedding planning my background includes luxury corporate events and political events. I have previously planned events for the Vice President of the United States and the White House. In the last several years I have brought that same attention to detail and expertise to the wedding industry. I handle all the logistics, details and coordination so the couple can sit back and relax knowing everything is covered. My sole focus is to have the couples I work with feel understood, taken care of and know the joy of wedding planning without the hassle or headache.

Choosing Lizzie Noble Events to plan our wedding is the best decision we could have possibly made. My husband and I had no idea where to start or what to do, and Lizzie was amazing! She jumped right in and gave us ideas, guidance and organization. We had no idea what vendors to use, how to budget for things or what we really wanted, but Lizzie got to know us as a couple and helped give us our dream wedding! Honestly, I have recommended her to so many of my friends, and she is currently planning my little sister's wedding because our whole family loved her so much! CANNOT RECOMMEND ENOUGH!

Sarah doesn’t believe that makeup should be a mask, her signature style is “naturally enhanced” and soft glam, making sure that you feel like the best version of your authentic self on your wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
When I was planning my wedding, choosing the makeup artist was one of the things I was most nervous about. On a daily basis the only makeup I wear is a little mascara so I was scared of looking too done up and not myself. My hair stylist suggested to me that I give Sarah a call and I’m so glad he did! When she came to my house for my trial she asked me all about how I wanted to look and feel on my wedding day and I felt totally understood. The first trial I did with another artist was horrible and I left feeling like a contestant on RuPaul so it was so nice to have someone that understood what I wanted and could totally deliver. She was so friendly and had a great calm energy about her that made me feel comfortable. On my wedding day she did my makeup, my mother and my mother in laws, who were both terrified of looking to over the top as well but of course it turned out perfect. Sarah also covered up a small tattoo on my back that I don’t love and didn’t want to be the main focus of the day. All her products must be top notch because nothing ever faded, I never needed to reapply anything, not even after walking two miles in the September sun and dancing all night. I took a picture of myself when I got home that night and I looked exactly the same as I did that morning when Sarah left my house. I couldn’t have been happier with the work she did and am so happy I found her!

Being the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I saw how precious photos become in life. Some photos are the only tangible connection we have to a person or place that is dearly missed. Thanks to my dad, I was introduced to the world of photography the same day I was introduced to the world. Because of my parents, our memories growing up are preserved. When I was 6, I received my own camera, marking the beginning of a lifelong dedication to documenting every aspect of my life.
