Awarded Best of Zola
Cheryl was INCREDIBLE!!!! As a person who has never been a makeup girlie and wanted to look like myself but with sparkle she absolutely nailed the natural look for both me and my bridesmaids! From our trial to the actual day she was always available for a question or comment and managed to turn my general “I don’t know what do you think will look good” into an absolutely stunning look. And let it be known my glam (makeup AND hair) held up not just through the wedding and reception but through the after party. So from 1pm-1am!!!!! I would highly recommend Cheryl’s services, ESPECIALLY if you want a natural makeup look because I cannot stress how much she absolutely nailed it. And she’s just super fun and professional to work with!!!!! Book her!!!!!!!

The Anchorage was amazing! My wife and I got married here last June, and to say everything was perfect would be an understatement. It's hard to put into words explaining how great Woody and Michelle were helping us make our special day go exactly as planned. The property is beautiful, spacious, and well kept. The waterfront view was the perfect backdrop for our ceremony (Woody even went out of his way to make an aisle of sand for us to walk down). The cigar shack was awesome and the barn was also set up for me and my groomsmen to get ready and hang out until the big moment (they especially enjoyed the darts, ring and hook, and bar with a kegerator). My family and I were very happy with the rooms which were spotless, comfortable, and included refrigerators/kitchenettes. My wife was very happy with her space to get ready, especially with Michelle doing everything she could ensuring the girls had what they needed and making sure everyone was stress free! Woody and Michelle were more than accommodating. Breakfast was always delicious (the smoothies and Woodys Waffles were my favorites). They were also life savers dealing with our vendors dropping stuff off (at times earlier than expected), even using their golf cart to help move stuff down to the beach to help set up. The golf cart also came in handy taxing people up and down the hill when needed! I HIGHLY recommend this venue! Woody and Michelle are two of the most kind, accommodating (and hilarious) people I've ever met, and I can't begin to thank them enough for everything they did to make sure our special day went off without a hitch. We fully intend on coming back to enjoy their beautiful BnB again!

The arrangements were absolutely gorgeous. My bridesmaids loved their bouquets and the level of detail in the large arrangement that was attached to the arbor for our ceremony and that was re-purposed to adorn our sweetheart table was incredible.

Christine is amazing! I was looking for a photographer for my wedding who’s work had more contrast than a lot of the light and airy photos I’ve seen lately and Christine definitely delivered!

Right from our very first meeting, Laura's professionalism, expertise, and calming presence put us at ease.

Her attention to detail ensured that everything ran smoothly on the day, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the magic without a single worry. The photos turned out absolutely breathtaking, striking a perfect and timeless balance between documentary-style shots and those capturing the warmth of our family and friends.

Ben Lausch Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. From the start, they were responsive, inquisitive, and easy to talk to, making the entire process smooth and enjoyable. Their work is truly beautiful, with a tasteful and efficient style that captured all the special moments of our day. Ben seamlessly integrated himself into the party, working flexibly to ensure he didn't miss a beat. Having been in many weddings, I know a great photographer can make all the difference in setting the right vibe, and Ben was everything we could have hoped for. He stuck to the plan, adapted when needed, and captured everything organically. His communication and turnover time during the editing process was unmatched. He would send editing updates without me even reaching out. I highly recommend Ben to any couple planning their wedding.

Hy husband and I were married at Lighthouse Sound on September 8th. To say that our day was perfect would be an understatement. Here is our review… The Space: We continue to have our guests tell us that this was the most beautiful wedding venue they have ever seen even months after our wedding. Our ceremony took place in the gazebo, cocktail hour on the patio, and reception in the tent (rented from Coastal Tented Events). All with incredible water views, cooling breezes, and great light. We were blessed with amazing weather, but also loved the indoor backup plan. The Staff: During the planning process, we worked with incredible coordinators. Shellie and Rose were THE BEST to work with. They were willing and excited to answer my one million questions the months leading up to the wedding. Shellie communicated with our other vendors and gave recommendations every step of the way. Their day-of coordination was SPOT ON. They made sure every decoration, floral arrangement, sign, etc. was perfect and that the entire schedule of the day ran smoothly. The wonderful bartenders and servers provided outstanding service for my husband and I and all of our guests. The drinks were great and the food was incredible. Which brings me to the food… The Food: We loved how many options were available when selecting our menu… dinner tiers, plated or buffet style, hors d’oeuvres, and desserts. Having the catering done in house was so helpful and made our planning process easier. The Golf: My husband loves to golf! He enjoyed playing the course on the morning of our wedding (he got one foursome for free). The pro shop was happy to help with scheduling tee times for his groomsmen and our other family members that played as well. He said this is one of his favorite courses he has ever played! We cannot recommend Lighthouse Sound more. We had the most incredible wedding and credit so much of that to the wonderful people and experience Lighthouse Sound. We can’t wait to come back for more meals and golf next time we are in town.

All The Details Wedding & Event Planning

  • Planner
  • Offers 5 services
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Sanford, VA

Hi, my name is Sarah — the heart behind All The Details Wedding. Ever since I planned my own wedding in just one week (yes, really!), I realized that what I loved most wasn’t just getting to “yes” or “I do” — it was every single detail in between. From designing my invitations to creating a beautiful ceremony timeline, I found so much joy in making sure everything felt just right, even under pressure.

From the moment we had our first consultation, I knew Sarah was the planner for us. She brought such a calming presence to what could’ve been a chaotic process. Her attention to detail, creativity, and genuine care made our wedding day feel effortless and magical. Every vendor she recommended was top-notch, and she even thought of little personal touches that made the day feel so us. Guests are still talking about how beautiful and smooth everything was — and I owe it all to Sarah.

Love + Rosemary

  • Caterer
  • Starts at $2,275
  • Serves Sanford, VA

Love + Rosemary has been providing exceptional food & service to our very happy couples for almost ten years. We have the unique advantage of a 24 foot mobile restaurant kitchen that allows us to turn any space, be it a park, estate, barn, beach or backyard into a 5 star venue! Our menu is Mediterranean inspired but we love a challenge! We allow full customizing of your menu for your special day.

From the very beginning, Rocco was an absolute joy to work with. He handled my "Type A" personality with such grace and enthusiasm, truly listening to my partner and me as we described our vision: warm, family-oriented, rustic, and inviting. He fully embraced our ideas and worked with us to create a custom menu that perfectly fit our theme while ensuring everything was achievable for his team. Rocco not only executed our wedding reception flawlessly but also took care of our rehearsal dinner. Since we chose not to have dancing and instead focused on a family-style celebration, the food needed to be the star of the evening—and Rocco delivered. The family-style setup was perfect, encouraging connection and conversation without the delays of a buffet. Thanks to his portable kitchen parked beside the barn, every dish was served hot and fresh. What truly set Rocco apart was his attitude. He was so full of joy, personally checking on each table to ensure everyone had what they needed. All of our guests left raving about the food and we were so busy eating that we just completely forgot to even take photos of the food! If you’re looking for something unique, whether it’s featuring a specific flavor or creating a family-focused atmosphere, I cannot recommend Rocco enough. He found the perfect balance between our vision and our budget, and while I love how everything turned out, I’m genuinely going to miss talking to him now that the wedding is over!

  • Photographer

  • Serves Sanford, VA

I’m Josephine, or Jo for short. I’ve had a camera in my hand since I was about 7 years old. When it came time to choose a college major my dad gave me some great advice: “choose something you love.” So, I chose to study photography and have been living my passion ever since! Capturing authentic, timeless images is my goal. I want you to feel comfortable to be yourself during photoshoots and have your photos reflect your unique personality.

Working with Jo last August was absolutely great! As a coordinator, having someone on the vendor team who is flexible and calm is super important. She handled the rowdy guests with a calm and patient demeanor, was a team-player as things changed, and open to suggestions and questions from me. And the photos are fantastic, of course!
