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!

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.

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!

My husaband and I booked Tiffany for our engagement shoot and immediately had a good feeling about her. Not only are her photos gorgeous, but she is one of the most down to earth, easy and fun people to work with. It was a no brainer to book her again for our wedding, and now almost a year later we are expecting our first baby. You better believe I’m booking my maternity, newborn and milestone pics (check out her awesome packages) with her as well! She is now not only the ONLY photographer I ever want to book with to document any milestone in my new family or I’s life, but also a friend I have gained for a lifetime.

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.

Naytza & her team did an amazing job at bringing my dream wedding to life! So simple and elegant, everything about the day was perfect. She was always on top of things and definitely made me feel at ease about the day. I would recommend her to anyone looking to host events!!! She puts her heart & soul into her work and it definitely shows!

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.

If you are considering booking The Gala 417 for your event, you should stop reading reviews and reserve your date now. We booked The Gala 417 for our wedding, and it was one of the best decisions we made. The venue is absolutely beautiful, and the food is delicious, but the best aspect of this venue is definitely the staff. The owners and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout the planning process. We loved how accommodating they were from the very beginning. You can tell they want your day to be exactly how you envision it. They were so flexible with the food menu, drink options, and decorations. For instance, the bride wanted to create an elaborate dessert table because she runs her own baking business. The staff helped make the bride’s wish happen. We dropped all the desserts off at the venue in the morning, and they had the dessert display set up perfectly for the reception. On our wedding day, the staff took care of every detail and ensured that the ceremony and reception ran smoothly. We like being prepared and organized, so we really appreciated how well coordinated everything was. After the ceremony, the staff quickly flipped the room for the reception, setting up tables, centerpieces, and other decorations. If there were any issues that day, we never heard about them because the staff is that good. Our wedding was a perfect day, and The Gala 417 is a major reason for that. We could not have booked a better venue. We cannot thank you enough for taking care of our guests and us on the best day of our lives!

The Maine of Williamsburg Weddings and Events Venue opened in October of 2021 in Williamsburg, VA. Located 7 miles from historic Colonial Williamsburg, the venue grounds are surrounded by trees providing a private, tranquil environment. The venue offers beautiful indoor and outdoor settings, as well as two wedding party dressing suites. A warming kitchen is available to accommodate any approved caterers. Tables, chairs, benches, a dance floor, and arch are included in the venue rentals. The Maine of Williamsburg team sets up the space according to your desired layout and remains onsite throughout all events to assist in creating an exceptional wedding experience for all.

The Maine of Williamsburg was a dream to wedding plan at and the staff were more than accommodating to plan with. After booking The Maine in June 2022, we finally had our picture perfect day this May 2024. The day was beautiful and all of our vendors were amazing. Tracy and her staff at The Maine are very understanding about the inconsistencies with event planning, and we’re more very helpful recommending vendors that were familiar with the space. If I chose to use an outside vendor, the staff easily worked with my preferred vendors to establish the necessary contacts and paperwork. Overall, my planning process was stress free knowing I had a gorgeous venue with a beautiful outdoor ceremony space, including microphones and speakers, and a well maintained interior for an inside reception. There was plenty of space for my guests. The bathrooms were well kept, with plenty available to accommodate my 130 guests. Also, the interior of the facilities are nice and COOL—the AC was much needed after a hot and humid spring wedding. No amount of praise for Tracy and her staff will ever feel like enough. Book The Maine NOW, if you want to have the wedding, or event, of your dreams.

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.

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!

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.

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.

I don’t know where to begin. I had the best experience with Kiln Creek Golf Club and Resort! Not only do they have a breathtaking venue but they have the most helpful staff. Let me start with Ruthanne Ferguson the Assistant Director of Sales. She was the best! Always responsive and always welcomed my ideas. I decided to go the DIY route and she was super supportive and helped bring my vision to life. I sent her a photo of how I wanted the ballroom decorated and she exceeded my expectations. Ruthanne partnered with my Wedding Coordinator the day of the wedding and they shielded me from all the chaos (very minor issues). I visited several other venues in the Hampton Roads area and I am so glad I choose Kiln Creek. We stayed on site in their hotel and the rooms are beautiful. My bridesmaids and I got ready in our hotel room while groomsmen and grooms got ready in the locker rooms. Not only are the rooms spacious but they also make a great background for photos. I’ve been to a few weddings and the food is typically the most disappointing part. That was not the case at Kiln Creek! All of their food was amazing. From the hors d’oeuvres during cocktail hour down to the dinner at the reception. My favorite was the ham biscuits and salmon. I could go on and on about how great this place is and how they made my day so special. It’s been 2 weeks since our wedding and I’m still getting calls with people raving about how beautiful our day was. I can’t say thank you enough to Ruthanne and Kiln Creek. I will never forget that special day.

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.

Heather Hughes gave us the most incredible photos and was a lifesaver at our wedding! Her pictures are downright magical, and she stepped in to save the day when our timeline went awry and our venue coordinator dropped the ball. She was such a joy to have around on our special day, and did a fantastic job of keeping everyone on track while also knowing when to let the schedule flex. She was an invaluable part of our wedding and we are so excited to use her for our soon-to-come newborn photos!

Kierstin was our day of coordinator for our wedding on November 6th 2022. She was wonderful to work with. Kierstin followed up on all of my vendors two weeks before our wedding. She helped and assisted my whole wedding party and family. I felt I was able to have fun and did not have to worry about a thing. Best service.

Hi! I’m Ashley Hesse, lead photographer and founder of, you guessed it, Ashley Hesse photography I'm so glad you’ve made it to my space here in the digital world. Grab a seat, and your favorite drink, and let’s get comfortable!

Awarded Best of Zola
Saying Ashley (and her associate photographer, Bri) was amazing just does not do her justice. Ashley did both our engagement photos and wedding photos, and both were stunning. The communication with Ashley throughout the entire process was easy, she always responded quickly. She was so willing to answer our questions and give us tons of wedding planning advice. She made sure to get every single shot we asked for. Her skills are beyond unbelievable. She makes you feel so comfortable and makes sure you are having fun while taking all of your photos. She even helped me with our timeline, which helped the day run smoothly. Her turnaround time is extremely fast, unrivaled in the industry. We received our sneak peeks less than 12 hours after the photography ended. We received our full wedding gallery less than 2 weeks after our wedding date! We were blown away by all of the photos. Her editing is top quality and every single photo looks stellar. We could not recommend Ashley enough for any occasion, not just weddings!

  • Beauty professional
  • Team of 1
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Claremont, VA

As an emerging Makeup Artist brand in the cosmetic industry, Ashlee Kinetra Artistry thrives off the idea of helping others feel glamorous by enhancing their naturally beautiful features. As the owner of Ashlee Kinetra Artistry, my main goal is to offer professional and incomparable service and insight to all my clients. I have a modern, yet classic approach to beauty, and listen to each client to ensure that they get what they came in for, as well as an experience they are sure to never forget.

Working with Ashlee Kinetra Artistry for my wedding day was an absolute delight. I only wear makeup on special occasions and when I do, I like a nice natural look. It’s no surprise that this is what I asked for my special day and Ashlee delivered. My makeup looked stunning in person and photographed beautifully. Not only did Ashlee give me the exact look I wanted, but she was also easy to communicate with and highly professional. Additionally, her makeup artist expertise extended beyond makeup application. Since I don’t wear makeup often I had a lot of questions. I really appreciate that she took the time to answer them. She provided valuable skincare advice, tips on how to make the look last all day, and educated me on the proper way to remove my makeup at the end of the day. I couldn’t be happier with the beautiful look she delivered and service she provided. She has definitely gained a customer for life. I wholeheartedly recommend Ashlee Kinetra Artistry for any bride to be looking for a professional, friendly, and talented makeup artist.

  • Serves Claremont, VA

Hey! I'm Valerie. I spend most of my weekends as a creative Virginia wedding photographer, but I also shoot a ton of documentary lifestyle portraits and spend the weekdays photographing small-business marketing content for clients throughout Virginia and DC. I believe in honest portraiture, which basically means capturing YOU, your family, or your business in ways that legitimately feel real. I always want people to feel like they know you when they see an image. Forget the stereotypes of what it's supposed to be. Let's just make real images with real smiles in real situations in real places that matter.

We loved having Valerie as our wedding photographer. Multiple people commented on how quick she was and we loved our photos. Valerie was communicative and professional. We could not recommend her more!

The quality of her work is truly timeless and romantic, capturing our day in a way that felt like a cinematic love story. Hiring Amanda for both our engagement shoot and rehearsal dinner meant that by the time our wedding day arrived, it felt like she was just one of our besties taking photos - but with incredibly high-quality and professional results.

Virginia Wedding Company made us feel so special, AND returned some sneak peek shots within 4 days! I don't know about you, but I felt that was incredible timing (not to mention, they surprised us with some photos AT THE WEDDING!)!! Our engagement session and wedding might be over, but I wouldn't put it past us to use Virginia Wedding Company for future events, even though they aren't local to us. These two were the perfect photographers for us, and I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking!

Sweet Chef is a home bakery owned by Executive Pastry Chef, Dominique Lewis. Specializing in cupcakes, wedding cakes, special occasion cakes, and other desserts she is certain to make your life sweet!

Awarded Best of Zola
Chef Dominique was incredible to work with for our wedding weekend 8-12-23! Her passion, mastery, expertise, creativity is clearly shown through her work. You can tell she loves what she does. The process of working with her was so smooth. She took a small deposit for a booking fee, then took our order. We walked through options, flavors, and showed her pictures of ideas for all of our desserts that weekend. It included a rehearsal dinner groom's cake, wedding reception cake, and cupcakes. She nailed all of them! They were tasty, moist, not too sweet, and decorated so well! They literally matched the vision we had and surpassed pictures we showed her; they had her touches on them. We were in town about 5 months prior to our wedding and we were able to do a taste testing with her — ordering about 6-8 cupcakes of different flavors. It was nice to test them and figure out how to match flavors for our wedding. Her billing process is secure and easy online. Pickup for the taste test cupcakes and the rehearsal dinner cake was easy and her store is easy to get to. Delivery for the wedding was on time, without any issues. We received so many complements about the cakes and how they were decorated! We were fortunate to have some leftovers from the wedding that we ate on for the next few days. I will say the cake and cupcakes did survive and still taste good 1-3 days later as we traveled back home from Virginia. we will definitely use Dominique again for any dessert needs and will continually recommend her to others! Thank you Dominique for being part of our special weekend! It wouldn’t have been as sweet without you! See review on Google maps for photos!

Hey there! Thanks so much for checking out! my page. I’m a couples and wedding photographer based out of Virginia Beach, Va but you can take me anywhere(: I’ve always loved taking photos and editing them, but couples have just completely stolen my heart. Being able to get creative and meet so many amazing couples all while giving you something you’ll have forever is what makes it so fun! Feel free to visit my instagram or website to see my most up to date sessions and learn more about me! (:

The first thing that caught my eye with Kyndall was her editing style. I mean when picking a photographer that’s pretty important to love! Her style was so unique and almost ethereal. I just got the best vibes from everything she had online and immediately I knew I wanted her for our wedding. From the moment we decided on Kyndall, I was impressed by her efficient and thorough communication and the entire process of booking. I loved being able to pay through her portal and have reminders throughout the year. She was always available if I had a small question or needed advice on something during my planning. Then the real magic happened day-of! Her and Bre were a highlight of my day truly. They were simply FUN. Immaculate vibes, we all fell into things very easily. It was a very blustery day and I wasn’t feeling super pretty- just kind of disheveled honestly. Despite the weather they both made me feel beautiful, comfortable, confident, and at ease, and I know my friends and family would agree. Her work was exactly what I was hoping for to capture our special day, and her personality was a bonus. Kyndall was genuinely fun to work with, and I cannot wait to see the final results. I’ve seen the sneak peaks (which I got literally less than 12 hours after our wedding!!) and I can say without a doubt hiring Kyndall was truly the best decision we made in selecting vendors. I would highly recommend her services to any couple planning their wedding.

Hey there! We are Devail & Nikki, your husband and wife wedding entertainment team. 196 Events is a professional Wedding DJ & Photo Booth company based in Virginia Beach, Virginia. However, we serve couples across Hampton Roads, RVA, Central VA and the Shenandoah Valley.

We cannot express enough about how much we enjoyed having Devail and Nikki as our DJ duo for our wedding! They most certainly delivered on their promise of No Boring Receptions and has us and our friends dancing all night! They guided the ceremony and reception with ease, and handled any time hiccups that came up without any fuss, making it a less anxious time for all. The planning suite they use is extremely easy to navigate and set s everyone up for success leading up to the big day! A little something that stood out: Our pastor that officiated our wedding is retired and had not done a wedding in 6 years, and it was the first one he had done without his wife of 57 years there with him. Devail and Nikki took time out of their busy schedule to share some video footage with our pastor so that he could show his wife. Talk about making it a personal experience!! They did this sort of thing throughout the whole process of working with them. We know this is a long review, but long story short, We cannot recommend their services enough. HIRE THEM!!!!
