I just wanted to take a moment to thank Jason for the fantastic job he did as our DJ at our daughter's wedding! Jason was very professional and just a pleasure to work with! From start to finish, you truly made Alex and Sam's day extra special! The music was perfect—every song you played set the right mood and kept the energy high all night. We’ve received nothing but compliments from our guests about how great the playlist was and how much fun they had on the dance floor. You really knew how to read the crowd and keep everyone dancing all night! I think Breakin' Free from High School Musical was a highlight—Alex and Sam looked so cute; I couldn’t stop smiling!

Primary Videographer: Leslie Secondary Videographer: Zach (Zachary) DJ: Heath Leslie and Heath were the next vendors we booked. Their wedding videos stood out from others because they truly captured the essence of who we are and the uniqueness of our wedding day. Unlike many wedding videos that feel repetitive, theirs felt personal and authentic. DJ Topedo’s app is a game changer. It’s comprehensive and made us think about aspects of wedding planning we hadn’t considered. Heath worked with us through the app multiple times to understand our vision and ensure everything went smoothly. He also did a fantastic job understanding our vision with the music. People don’t fully comprehend how important music is for setting the ambience not just for you but also for your guests. Sharing a video of our first dance in advance helped Leslie and Zach plan the best angles to capture this special moment. Their professionalism and dedication ensured that every detail of our day was beautifully documented.

Green Dragonfly Events

Columbia, MD
  • Planner
  • Offers 6 services
  • Starts at $2,150

Greetings and salutaion! I am a blue haired, tattooed geek girl wedding planner with a love of dragonflies & offbeat events! I have also been wedding planning since 2004. I haven't met a DIY project I can't wait to try, a scrapbook page I didn't want to make, or a cosplay idea I didn't want to put together. Watching all the different elements come together to make something come alive is fantastic. I approach all my events the same way. Helping a client pull together all of their puzzle pieces to make an event that is uniquely theirs is the best feeling!

Our wedding was going to be so simple, if you ask my husband. Tee-shirts. Taco truck. American Legion. Guests. Done. Even he had to thank Fran profusely for all of her foresight, thoughtful touches, and management skills. This was a second wedding for both with kids and exes on both sides. It went off flawlessly, thanks to Fran. Our wedding ceremony and reception were on consecutive days. She printed and framed ceremony pics to display at the reception. She kept an eye on tipsy guests and let us know about potential issues. She found seats for the guests who I had carelessly left off the seating chart. She picked up, deployed, and returned the table cloths and had special little decorations for our table. I couldn't possibly list all the things she did to make the day run smoothly and to make us feel cared for and loved. Thank you Fran. You almost make me want to do it all over again.

  • Serves Columbia, MD

First and foremost, congratulations! This is an exciting time! Before I begin with all the details, I would like to do away with the formalities and keep it light. Technically speaking, I’m a photographer, but honestly, since establishing my business in 2014, I would consider myself a teammate through this process. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know couples, their families, their stories, and at the end of the day, becoming a good friend. If this vibes with you, we are off to a good start :) Answering questions, transparency in communication, and prompt responses are important to me and I hope that everything I share resonates.

Awarded Best of Zola
Justin was absolutely incredible!! He was able to impeccably capture the beauty and joy of the day. A lot of photographers we considered had beautiful photos, but the reason we went with Justin was because you could feel the joy come through the photos and it paid off! Justin sent us the high quality, well edited photos faster than I have ever heard any wedding photographer get pictures to the bride and groom and he made it very easy for us to share those pictures with family and friends. Not only did Justin deliver beautiful photos that captured the mood of the day, but he went above and beyond his photographer duties. When all of the bridal party was racing around with wet fingernails, Justin stepped in to help button the many buttons on my dress. When we were running late to get to the ceremony, Justin called the front desk at the venue to make sure our ride was waiting for us to get to the ceremony ASAP. I cannot recommend Justin enough!!!

  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style

Hi! Courtney here (that's me on the left!). Shutter and Sound is the brainchild of renowned wedding videographer Ryan Geldermann. Ryan began his wedding videography career in 2010 in Los Angeles and quickly became recognized as one of the top videographers in the U.S.. After relocating to DC and still receiving countless inquiries from all corners of the country, Ryan decided to recruit and train a few talented friends so he could continue offering the quality wedding videography he’s known for in SoCal and eventually over 10 cities. Shutter and Sound is a very small group of filmmakers dedicated to turning your big day into a work of art.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are thrilled with the stunning work of Shutter and Sound! Their highly talented videographers perfectly captured all the love and memories of our wedding day, and helped preserve them in film. Reliving the day by watching our highlight video brought us and our family to tears of joy. Every beautiful moment was captured with crystal-clear visuals from getting ready with our wedding attendants to our sparkler send off at the end of the night. The drone footage and details shots also perfectly blended with the rest of the film and helped set the stage for our perfect day. We can’t thank Shutter and Sound enough for the creativity and care they put into making our wedding video. I highly recommend!

Eric was awesome to work with from the start. He’s a true professional at his work and is extremely personable. He really understood the vision for our wedding and fulfilled it ten times over. We used Eric for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception and for all three he exceeded our expectations. The music was phenomenal and the lighting looks amazing in pictures. He helped us host a great party, was receptive to all of our song requests and preferences, and checked in with us as needed before and throughout the wedding. He kept the energy up all night and knew exactly what to play when. He was also a great emcee, super likable and not the least bit cheesy or abrasive during any announcements during the reception. Everyone complimented how cool he was and what a great set he played. We cannot recommend him enough and can’t wait to party with him again!

DJ Ed Zaruba is awesome and we would certainly recommend his services for your big event! DJ Ed is on Hayfield Country Club’s preferred vendor list for a reason. A few small issues “day of,” but ultimately our event was amazing thanks to Ed! We explored several DJ options for our wedding and really liked the vibes from Ed/Jess - he’s been in the business for nearly two decades, and the family dynamic / supporting a small business appealed to us much more than some huge company. Ed/Jess were super responsive throughout the process, getting everything set up for us to curate our music selection and remained available to answer questions. We had a phone call with Ed two weeks before the wedding, sharing with him a google doc capturing our event timeline and going over particular requests for our reception. He made sure to download all the special songs and verify the version with us. We overall left the phone call in a great place, confident in the main event! Ceremony was executed perfectly and sound quality was great - He also provided lapel microphones for the officiant and the groom. He nailed all the important first dance/”special” songs and even a mid-reception Halloween Set with specific fade-ins and outs. Really impressive blending of songs and kept the dance floor moving! He chimed in at appropriate times and has a fitting DJ voice - He does his job by managing the flow of events, but does not steal the show. Despite the previous coordination, Ed did try to end the reception an hour early, missed a few “must play” songs, and his wife/assistant Jess did not attend the wedding even though we had already paid for her as a vendor. Overall, small issues that were ultimately unnoticed aside from bride/groom. The event was great and we would absolutely rehire and recommend DJ Ed Zaruba for your wedding!
