Was an amazing experience from start to finish! Brittani walked me through everything at my bridal preview/trial. I don’t typically wear makeup so she asked questions to get a feel of what I was comfortable with and explained anything that I wasn’t familiar with. I really had in my head what I pictured myself looking like for my big day—but Brittani made it happen! I felt and looked gorgeous! Highly recommend:)

The pictures I have from our wedding are genuinely the best photos I have ever seen of not only my now husband and I, but of all our loved ones.

Hi, I'm David, a Virginia-based photographer. Unlike many photographers, my introduction to the art of photo taking initially started off purely by accident. I believe everything happens for a reason and I am very thankful to be in the position I am in today.

Awarded Best of Zola
When Annie and I booked him, we had full intentions to have him do our wedding. We put down the deposit, and then things went sideways financially. We unfortunately had to go back to him and cancel. My fiancé was devastated, so I reached out to him, and asked if he could do a quick hour shoot, like an engagement session. He was very quick to reply, and get us on the schedule. He was so kind and understanding, I truly wish we could have him for our wedding, but I am grateful he was willing to work with us. I know my wife-to-be and I are going to cherish those pictures forever.

Dover Hall made all of my wedding dreams come true. I really wanted a Lake Como, European estate vibe for our wedding. I never thought it would be possible, especially in the Richmond area but Dover proved us wrong. Dover Hall was the first and ONLY venue we toured after getting engaged. We have received endless compliments on not only our venue choice, but the staff and ESPECIALLY the food. Emily, Wendy, and Chef Leah worked with us during the whole planning process to ensure we were satisfied with everything. The entire staff is extremely accommodating, kind, patient, and helpful with everything. They are so knowledgeable and really walk you through the entire process. I have never been to an American style wedding before so I had no idea what I was doing but they were extremely understanding and held my hand throughout the last almost 2 years. We also really wanted to incorporate Thai and Korean dishes with our reception and Chef Leah was able to collaborate with us to create delicious options for our guests. We wish we could go back everyday and relive it all over again, Dover Hall is truly one of a kind and such a beautiful place-- we are so happy with our choice.

If you’re looking for a Richmond wedding photographer, I cannot recommend Stephanie Jenkins enough!! We hired Stephanie at the recommendation of a friend - and I’m so glad we did!! Putting aside the fact that her photos are STUNNING (which they are), Stephanie had such a relaxing and fun presence that she made taking wedding photos a good time! It’s so clear in both her attitude and her work that she loves what she’s doing, and that makes the whole experience 1000x better. On top of that, her work is simply gorgeous. She has such an eye for angles and poses that really comes through in the photos. Stephanie also sent us a sneak peak gallery the day after the wedding (which is not the norm!), which was so nice and let us relive some of our favorite moments the next day! Stephanie was responsive, professional, and best of all TALENTED. Again, if you’re looking for a Richmond wedding photographer, hire Stephanie!!!

We are so lucky to have found Autumn's Custom Catering for our wedding! We found it was still cheaper to pay their travel fee to go from Richmond to Charlottesville than to find a local caterer and we so appreciate them making the long haul for us! Claudine and staff were friendly, informative, and responsive. The food was AMAZING and all of the catering staff went above and beyond to make our day special. They even helped put away decor and chairs at the end of the night while boxing up our leftovers (which we're still enjoying a week later!) We got so many compliments on both the food and the helpfulness of the catering crew and we cannot thank them enough!!

DJ Anthony Bryant (aka DJ Ant-Boogie) was absolutely amazing and such an important part of our wedding experience. When planning a wedding, there are a million things to worry about. DJ Ant Boogie is not one of them. He was so nice and so patient and professional with us during the planning, and an absolute joy to work with during the actual wedding. We had such little direction for him and gave the most vague descriptions of our friends and ourselves and the general vibe and he crafted the most perfect wedding playlist I have ever heard. All night people were complimenting us on our amazing song choices (all DJ ant boogie) and the dance floor was alive literally all night. He also did such a wonderful job with all of our special requests and announcements and all the “scripted wedding stuff” that happens during a wedding. Everyone had such an amazing time and he was such an integral part of that. DJ Ant Boogie, thank you so much for such a wonderful experience. We had a perfect night, and we are so grateful.

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.

We came across Alaaeldin while searching online through various wedding websites, aiming to find a photographer with positive reviews, reasonable pricing, and an impressive wedding portfolio. After interviewing several photographers, we had the pleasure of connecting with Alaaeldin, who impressed us right from the start with his profound knowledge of photography and the entire wedding process. Along with his team he provided us with valuable guidance and materials from the planning stage up until the wedding day. This was incredibly helpful especially for a new bride-to-be like myself whether or not we had a wedding planner. One thing that stood out was his pro/con list regarding whether or not to do a first look. This list played a significant role in helping my husband and me make our decision. From the moment we booked Alaaeldin and his team, they were highly responsive to any questions or concerns I had. Their dedication was remarkable even during weeks of no communication, Alaaeldin would send a quick note to check in on how I was doing and if I needed any assistance. He even sent a thoughtful text the day before the wedding reassuring me that he was there for me if I needed anything at all. Initially, I was apprehensive about posing correctly and being conscious of having a double chin in the photos – silly, I know! However, he made us feel so at ease that we ended up going with the flow and posing naturally in the moment. They created a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, making the entire experience fun and memorable. We genuinely felt like we were spending time with lifelong friends. For future couples considering Alaaeldin's services, we have some valuable advice to offer: 1. Don't miss the engagement session; it's a must! and 2. definitely consider getting the photobooth! Our guests had an incredible time, and it added an exciting and lively element to the celebration.

My now husband and I used Jules for our wedding and could not have been happier! We are both awkward people when it comes to having our pictures taken but Jules made our engagement photos and wedding day so much fun!! Even with a tight timeline, Jules made the most of it and always asked if we would like anything else. The whole experience from the phone calls planning to the day itself was so easy and enjoyable.

Nestled in the peaceful, rolling farmlands of Charles City, Open Air The Glebe is only 30 minutes from Richmond or Williamsburg. This 10 acre farm features a historic home, scenic tree-lined drive, multiple barns, and a large tented patio. You can have your rehearsal dinner in the Tractor Pavilion, host your wedding reception under our 60'x90' tent, continue celebrating with an after-party--or whatever you like for a day, or for a long weekend. Our philosophy is that a celebration should reflect the vision, the culture, the traditions of each couple, therefore we allow you to hire the vendors that you choose (the day should not reflect our tastes and that of our "preferred list" of vendors/friends). The Events Team of Open Air The Glebe has over 50 combined years working in the event industry, therefore you also get the benefit of all the experience and resources that we have. Whatever you desire, we can make it happen!

I’m Jessica, the owner, cake designer, and baker behind Louisa’s Homemades. Louisa was my middle name growing up, so I revived this family name through my business. I come from a food family with two Grandmas who will not take “no” for an answer when asked if you’d like something to eat! I fell in love with baking as a child, creating and tasting treats with my Grandmother for family celebrations. Whenever we would bake something together she would always tell me to “pat it with love,” and it is this sweet phrase that inspired my business.

Linden Row Inn, a historic wedding venue in Richmond, Virginia, is ideal for couples wishing to exchange vows in a setting steeped in history. Furnished with antiques from the middle and late 1800s, the venue is featured on the National Registry of Historic Places. A staple in the wedding industry for the over 30 years, Linden Row Inn is the perfect choice for capturing the importance of your special day!

If you are looking for a wedding venue that captures the magic and beauty of a historic location, while adding in its own flair and charm, look no further than Linden Row. My husband and I are truly in awe of how stunning, romantic, charming, and timeless this venue was. Not only is Linden Row a historic venue that is timelessly preserved, but it is located centrally in the heart of Richmond, with all the fun elements it has to offer. Complete with its stunning courtyard, magical tree canopy, and rustic brick, the Linden Row is the perfect place to have a wedding. Beyond its inherent charm, Linden Row is convenient for guests and couples alike. Our guests loved that they could stay on-site for the wedding, grab a bite at Parterre during the weekend, and retire to their cozy room or suite at the end of the night. As a bride, the fact that we could do everything in one location was a game-changer. Additionally, I would recommend the suites to anyone who is getting married--the floor to ceiling windows, beautiful details, and historic elements make for stunning photos. In addition to the location itself, Linden Row's value is in its professional staff. Specifically, Casey, Alexa, and the entire team were invaluable in making our day a success. They worked flawlessly with our vendors, were extremely flexible throughout the entire process and wedding weekend, and executed our vision to a tee. I can confidently say not a single thing went wrong on our wedding (which is very rare) and in fact the wedding was even more magical than expected. Linden Row is truly a rare find. As a budget-conscious bride, I found its value to be incredible, and beyond that it is a place we can return to for years to come to celebrate the memories of a wonderful wedding.

NO RULES. JUST FUN. Wedding days are awesome. There’s you, the rad couple who has decided to take the big leap. And there’s the cake, the vows, the friends and family, the toasts and all the love. (Did I mention cake?) Even though weddings can be awesome, they can also be a bit overwhelming at times. With Awesomesauce Photography, you don’t have to do anything you don’t feel like doing. I want you to actually enjoy partying with your friends and eat the awesome meal you have meticulously chosen, not spend it taking portraits for hours. With me, there are no rules. Just fun.

From the moment we reached out, Linda was a dream to work with. She was honest, upfront, and clear about pricing and packages, and worked with us to create the right timeline for our wedding day. She was also incredibly warm and kind throughout. We initially chose Linda because we loved her portfolio of more candid, natural, and photojournalistic/documentary-style images. She brought that same vision to our wedding day, and captured incredible moments for us. During the day, she helped make sure everyone was where they needed to be. She felt like a part of our wedding party. She carried around heavy equipment on a very hot Virginia day in September, and it was very appreciated. She got every shot we had asked for in advance and suggested a few on the fly that became some of our favorites. She got us the photos back in a very timely manner, and it was easy to download and share them with friends and family. We would highly suggest working with Linda for any event and would love to work with her again if we have the opportunity. Working with Linda was a highlight of our wedding process.

Every couple is different and we strive to create something with you that truly reflects that. From first meet to final delivery, you can expect a genuine experience that hopefully feels like working with a friend more than a vendor.

My husband and I booked Cat after seeing 1 Instagram post and having 1 phone call. When you know, you know ;). I knew I wanted videography services and one of her reels caught my eye (the song she used was a string quartet version of one of my husband and I's "songs"). I saw the reel, sent her an email, and was shocked that she was in our budget. It really felt like fate. Cat probably doesn't realize this but booking her set the tone for other vendors we booked and we truly had a dream team. I have her to thank for that! She and Jared were professional, kind, and easygoing. She had a very calming presence about her and she vibed super well with our photographer (who we also loved)! I had zero concern or worry about the quality of the content she would produce- we trusted her completely. Every teaser I saw was exactly what I'd hoped. She caught the most perfect moments and our video is truly a representation of the day. I will cherish it forever, especially as we grow older and the memories inevitably fade. I would book Cat a thousand times over and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a videographer- wedding coverage or otherwise!!

Riverside Vines is a brand new venue, and you would never know. We got married in November 2022, it was 70 degrees and beautiful. The lake front ceremony is stunning, your wedding is on a farm yet everything feels very modern. Communication was great throughout the whole process. I had my guests stay at two hotels in Chester, VA so it was only 20 minutes from the venue. Everything was seamless. We also stayed at the farm house on site, that's the way to do it. SO much less stress the morning of your wedding because you're already there. All of my bridesmaids loved the house, it was massive and had everything we needed. Couldn't recommend this venue enough. It's only going to get better each year, I can tell. Thank you RSV!
