I'm a dreamer, a maker, a memory curator with a love for the written word. I have a master's in laughter, and am a world renown mess maker. I’m a wannabe world changer, a devoted pray-er, and an avid forgiver. I’m a barefoot kitchen dancer, a hammock reader and sun seeker, an accident-prone adventurer... and hopefully, when I look back, a professional life-rider and full-fledged compassion giver.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jessica and her team did the florals for our wedding, and they were AMAZING! She was an absolute joy to work with from start to finish. I reached out to many florists, and she was patient and intentional, taking my mumbled jumbled ideas and putting together something magical for our big day. No idea was too big or small. We had several one-on-one meetings, and she put together an inspirational slide deck. That’s when I truly started to see all the pieces coming together! She worked within my budget and let me know beforehand if there would be any additional costs based on what I wanted. It was also nice because I could handle all my floral rentals through her (things like vases and candles) without needing to contact additional vendors. On the actual wedding day, Jessica and her team were incredibly kind, keeping me at ease. I trusted her to get creative and make decisions when I didn't have an exact plan for something. Cannot recommend f&b enough!

I'm William, a dedicated and passionate photographer/videographer based in Washington, DC. My love of photography was born out of my love of travel. While exploring other countries and cultures, I was using my phone to document the people that I met and the places that I have been. This led me to buy my first professional-level camera; it has been with me ever since. I consider my photography style to be timeless. When I'm not behind the lens, you'll find me at my local movie theater or spending quality time with my family and friends.

We had a small and simple wedding but wanted some good pictures. William was very professional, and the pictures are amazing! They absolutely capture the day just as we remember it. The online gallery is very easy to use and William delivered us the pictures very quickly.

Katie was a breeze to work with! I am not big on real flowers and wanted something that would represent my husband and I. Her prices are comparable to real flowers and are even more lovely! I love that her flower designs mimic real flowers and that foliage was an option. She took the care to make sure I had what I wanted and sent me multiple pictures during the process and of the finished result before we picked them up for the wedding. She accepted my feedback and made changes to the bouquets to match my vision. I still have my bouquet and my husbands boutonniere as keepsakes that remind me of our special day. I would use her services again and again!

He is very professional, accommodating, and incredibly detail-oriented, thoughtful and organized--perfect traits for a wedding photographer! Before coming to the wedding he went out of his way and asked if I was hungry or needed something from the store which was very considered. We truly couldn't have imagined a better photographer for our wedding day! We cannot thank and praise him enough, and we feel so lucky to have found him for our wedding.

Ever since I can remember, I've been captivated by the power of a single moment to tell a whole story. As a wedding photographer, I get to capture those fleeting, special moments that make each couple's love story unique. With over 4 + years of experience, I blend artistry with technical skill to create images that are not only beautiful but deeply meaningful.

Caleb was fantastic to work with. From the very beginning, he had excellent communication(from the time we booked him for our wedding.) Caleb made sure to touch base constantly to make sure everything was going good, and to see if we needed anything from him, and to send him any photo ideas we had. He was punctual to the wedding, and his professionalism and laid back style, was perfect for us and our wedding. By the time we got home from our wedding reception, he had already sent us some edited photos. Caleb’s editing style also matches the look we were after. He always had pose suggestions for us, constant ideas for how to take group shots large or small. He made us, our family and our wedding guests VERY comfortable. I would highly recommend hiring Caleb for your wedding, or any event.

Hello, and Welcome! My personal philosophy is: ​ "When you commit yourself to do something, do it from the heart." Photographing you is not only a hobby, but a timeless commitment and passion to capture authenticity in the memories we are about to create.​I love seeing the beauty and emotions in people. I am not here to treat you as my client, but as a friend who I can make a connection with, and who is letting me capture those perfectly imperfect moments you wish to see. Let's chat more!

When you start wedding planning, it is so overwhelming to decide on vendors when there are so many available. But we are so happy we chose Amanda to be our wedding photographer! My husband and I had never had professional photos done, and when we had our engagement photo session, Amanda helped us become more comfortable and photographed us naturally, while also giving us suggestions for poses and actions so she could get some great shots. We saw our engagement photos and they were so beautiful, we were so excited to have her photograph our wedding! Throughout the process, Amanda was always fast to respond and answered any questions we had. She even guided us on our wedding timeline and was so helpful since she has photographed so many weddings. On the day of our wedding - she fit in with all our friends and family for the vibe of our wedding - fun, relaxed, and loving! We appreciated that she listened to everything we wanted for our wedding photos, but also made suggestions for things that she knew she could photograph amazingly! Now looking at our photographs, we are blown away by how beautiful they are and how she captured the day and us as a couple. Thank you so much to Amanda for capturing our best day ever!

  • Serves Waterford, VA

I have been planning weddings and events for 15 years. After college, I worked as a meeting planner for several years, while also earning my International Wedding Planning Professional certification (IWPP). My love of special events is what convinced me to start my own business. I love working with clients to create their perfect vision. My goal is to take away the stress of the day so that my clients are able to enjoy themselves. I am able to help by suggesting venues and vendors, site visits and contracting, communicating and working with vendors, on-site coordination, setup, and post-event cleanup and follow-up.

Diane was easily the best decision I made for my wedding. From the very beginning she had lots of helpful planning documents, answered every question I had, gave us ideas when we couldn't figure out how or when we wanted something to happen for our special day, stayed over time on our planning / check in calls to make sure we felt that we covered everything, and did all of this with a smile and supportive, kind attitude. You're going to spend a lot of time with your wedding planner / coordinator, so it's important that they're a good person and you like them! Well Diane is a gem of a human being, and I really do feel like I made a forever friend in her. Throughout the planning process and on the day, there were times when I just needed emotional support, and she was there for me. Her communication is prompt, consistent, and thorough. She got back to me on every email in a timely manner with all the answers I needed. I didn't realize at the time but strong communication was probably the MOST important aspect that made working with vendors 1000x better, and Diane excelled at it. Additionally, in the lead up to my wedding day and on the day itself, Diane was on top of EVERY detail. She went above and beyond to make sure that everything was PERFECT - just as I always dreamed it would be. From helping me iron my wedding dress while my bridesmaids and I were getting our makeup done to overseeing every vendor arrival and setup to making sure transitions from each part of the day were smooth - she did it all. No detail was too small for her, and because she's a total professional, she thought of everything! I cannot say enough good things about Diane, her abilities as a planner, and her warmth as a person. She will be the best decision that you make for your wedding, too.

Like with anything I do, I’ve put much heart, work and energy into photography. Yet, the most rewarding part are still the emotions, and happy messages I get from my clients. Nothing charges and empowers me more. On your wedding day, you shouldn't have to worry, cause I am there to help you in every way possible. I make sure your dress is all nice and fluffed in every picture, that there is nothing in your teeth, I catch every fly away and I am there to be your hype girl.

I can't gush over Grace enough. After postponing our wedding twice due to Covid, we abandoned our original plans of having a huge wedding at home in Kentucky and decided to have a small ceremony at the beach in Florida. After finding Grace through hashtags on Instagram, we DMed a bit and setup a call. After talking on the phone, I was sold! Grace was my go to girl for all things Florida. She had the BEST recommendations for other vendors and was ALWAYS just a text away if I had any questions or simply needed someone to share wedding plans with. Even though we didn't actually meet in person until the day of the ceremony, it felt as if we had been lifelong friends. She PERFECTLY captured our ceremony and I can't wait to plan another shoot with her when we visit again!!

  • Cakes & desserts
  • Serves Waterford, VA

What started as a hobby has turned into my passion. My mom was my inspiration to begin turning my hobby into my dream job. I am self taught and have learned on the way how to perfect my edible art. Originally I branded as XoXo Cupcakes as cupcakes are what began my buttercream journey. I decided to reband our name to XoXo Cake Boutique to include the expansion of my business. XoXo Cake Boutique offers a variety of wedding cakes/cupcakes, special event cakes/cupcakes, and dessert bars featuring cake truffles, chocolate covered strawberries, cream puffs, and mini cupcakes. We specialize in custom flavors and decorative custom designs.

I had a wonderful experience working with XoXo Cake Boutique, LLC for my wedding. Their communication was quick and easy throughout the process, making the cake tasting a breeze. The quality of their work was exceptional - the cake not only looked beautiful, decorated with the flowers from our wedding, but it tasted delicious as well. I would highly recommend XoXo Cake Boutique to any couple looking for a talented and reliable wedding cakes & desserts vendor.

For bride and grooms to be - do yourself a favor and look no further, seriously! Jordan was amazing during the entire planning process, he always replied in a timely manner and made every little request I had seem like no biggie and made it happen! He provides access to an online portal (extremely cool!!) which gives you the opportunity to give him a general idea of the type of music you want and keeps things extremely organized...Now more importantly, he literally had the crowd on the dance floor the ENTIRE time... and I’m not exaggerating. (People were texting me days later that they’re sore from dancing the whole night!) He is able to read the crowd and deliver. Its been a few months since the wedding and I STILL receive compliments about the DJ - how incredible the music was and how awesome his lighting work was. If you want the best of the best, you’ve found it!!

A luxury beauty experience for the modern woman! My beauty philosophy is simple, "When you look good you feel good.

As a high-end makeup artist servicing some of Washington DC's most prestigious residents for over eight years, I always found it hard to find my "Glam team".

I am so glad that I chose Nina Renee Beauty for my wedding day. From the very beginning, Nina had so many ideas and was willing to answer all of my super specific questions. I am an admirer of makeup and hair, with little experience lol. I really just shared my vision with Nina and she let me know what I needed! They completely over delivered on quality of work and customer service!! I also highly recommend their hair extension rental. So easy and the extensions really amplified my hairstyle. By the way! My bridesmaids all felt that this was their favorite hair and makeup experience!

Based in Charlottesville, Virginia and keen to travel. I am more than honored that this gets to be my job. That I get to photograph you and all the things you love. I love it because I love my people and I love this earth and I love connection and growing things and all I ever want to do is preserve it.

Cecilia was our wedding photographer’s second shooter and we are so happy to have met her! My husband Earl was quite apprehensive about taking photos (he has about 2 smiles in him and then he’s over it!) but Cecilia hung out with the groom’s party before the ceremony and made all of the guy’s very comfortable and took some great candid photos! During pre-ceremony photos, in addition to taking photos, Cecilia was so kind and helped me with my train/veil when we were walking around the venue finding picture perfect spots! Thank you for making our wedding day so enjoyable, Cecilia!

Beyond happy with our decision of having Svenja as our photographer to capture our wedding day! Her attention to detail amazed me with all the special & intimate moments she captured especially the candid ones of our loved ones. Our wedding photos were breathtaking !! We received so many compliments on them. She even went above & beyond anything I’ve ever seen & surprised us with having some of our photos taken during the day displayed on a tablet during our wedding reception as a sneak-peek. Our guest enjoyed viewing them as much as we did! Prior to our wedding day she made sure to check in & was always willing to set up a call to go over the flow of the day of how I envisioned. She created a beautifully organized timeline that made the day less stressful & made sure to help keep me on that schedule to elevate added stress. The surprise packages in the mail before & after our wedding (printed wedding photos & a personable hand written note after) really showed how big of a heart and attention to detail she has! I could go on and on how happy I was with Svenja . I HIGHLY recommend her & will to any future brides ! You get a photographer & coordinator all in one!

Hey I’m Mark! A photographer and videographer based in Washington, DC, originally from sunny central Florida. I’ve been honored to have my personal creative work featured in Stencil Magazine and The Phoblographer. With experience ranging from Disney’s Photopass program to weddings, events, and even automotive photography, I bring a diverse skill set to every shoot. My passion for capturing moments and my technical expertise in both photography and videography ensure that each session is tailored to create timeless, captivating imagery.

We found "Mark Joven Photography" through my fiancé who worked with him before during group trips with his friends. I really liked the photos he took we booked him for our engagement photos and he did NOT disappoint at ALL! He brought two assists with him and spent 2 days taking photos for us at multiple locations of our choosing! Mark was very professional and made each day go by seamlessly! We hung out like old friends and made a day of Magic Kingdom after taking our photos at our favorite places in the park! We got all our shots back within a week of taking them and they were all so beautiful I cried! They are some of the best pictures I’ve ever had! We decided to hire him for our wedding as a videographer and backup photographer should we need him! Also his prices are SUPER reasonable and affordable! If you’re looking to book him I wouldn’t hesitate! I’m pretty sure we’re gonna use him for future milestones! Mark is definitely a 10/10 and as a former photographer myself I am VERY picky when it comes to my photography so I can say I don’t say 10/10 unless i truly mean it!!
