Awarded Best of Zola
One of the most important components to me for our wedding was the flowers. I chose Poppy Flowers because of the look I wanted for the ceremony and reception and with the lower minimum cost required compared to other florists. We went with a pastel theme given we had a spring wedding. I had countless complements on the centerpieces at the reception – they were gorgeous. They were the perfect match for elegant look I wanted. My bouquet and my husband’s boutonniere were also beautiful and what we were expecting. The website was a little glitchy for me in a couple of instances (the IT people had to address the issues) – hopefully they have all of those issues resolved now. Aside from those minor issues, we were very pleased with our decision to go with Poppy. Thank you for providing the gorgeous flowers for our day!

Desmond was very attentive and detailed through the booking process, including sending us a VERY informative guide that helped us think ahead to our special day and what we wanted to capture. His communication throughout the process was impeccable. It was a tremendous help, and honestly gave us some great ideas that we would not have thought of ourselves!

Ivy & Quartz Photography

  • Serves Upper Marlboro, MD

Hi! I'm Nina and I run Ivy & Quartz photography! I shot my first wedding in 2013, but my journey with photography began long before that. When I was about 10 years old, my dad gave me a camera and I quickly became obsessed. My intrigue continued to grow over the years and I went on to earn my BA in Studio Art , Photography, from the University of Virginia. After graduating I worked as a portrait photographer and decided to pursue and earn my MFA in Imaging Arts from the Rochester Institute of Technology.

Awarded Best of Zola
After friends shared a photo of my then fiance and me at their own wedding, we hired the photographer who took it. This was Nina! That one photo inspired us to review the gallery of their entire wedding and then her portfolio and we were blown away. 7 months later our own wedding day arrived. My husband and I are the type of people who are wildly present and constantly forget to take photographs of our life together. We knew we wanted to capture this day without the photography becoming a chore or hindering our ability to do what we do best and enjoy our time. Nina was able to provide just that and was incredible (as was the second photographer she worked with for our big day). Nina seamlessly handled all the chaotic moments and pre-ceremony stress of the very emotional bride (me) in stride! With very little direction she navigated all aspects of a wedding day with absolute poise and grace. I cannot thank her enough for taking on such leadership and just GETTING IT DONE! Nina captured all the big and tiny pieces that go into a wedding and I felt her photo choices, angles, and poses perfectly captured the essence of me and my husband's personalities. At every avenue Nina was a professional, personable, and I never expected I could be so satisfied with a collection of photographs. THANK YOU SO MUCH NINA.

When I am not behind the camera or editing photos, I enjoy short Uber rides to bottomless brunch on the weekends; right now mimosas and I kinda have a thing going on! I have a special relationship with bourbon and FIRMLY believe in putting food on the grill during late afternoons should be the norm. I am blessed to be married to the happiest person on earth (I am so serious), who just happens to double as my favorite person. She keeps me grounded and never fails to remind me how great she is.

Wow can’t say enough amazing things about this photographer, he truly was one of the highlights of our wedding. Don’t walk to book him run! He was super focused, detail orientated, bilingual, fun and laid back. He captured so many incredible behind the scene moments and my family kept saying we didn’t even see him take that picture. We were nervous about not knowing how to pose. He made us so comfortable and had amazing poses. He captured intimate moments of our families reactions during the ceremony, speeches and partying. He helped the day flow so well and we couldn’t believe how amazing the pictures were. The turn around time for the pictures was also super fast. We had a bad experience with a photographer prior who ended up being a scammer and he truly saved our wedding day!! Thank you!

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Grace was a pleasure to work with during the wedding planning process. She was timely in her responses and upfront with pricing. On the day of the wedding, it felt like we were herding cats, but she remained professional and efficient. Even though we were running behind schedule with getting dressed, she managed to squeeze in a few dress shots and some first look photos. Grace remained patient even as some of our friends and family showed up late for photos! As we moved between locations, she made sure I was holding my dress in a way so that I wouldn’t fall on my face. She also helped my MOH bustle my dress after the ceremony (again, so I wouldn’t fall on my face). Grace was always cognizant of the lighting on location, and how it would affect photos. Her assistant, Joey, was lovely and accommodating as well. All in all, a wonderful experience!

We worked with Francisco as our day-of wedding coordinator at the Josephine Butler Parks Center, and we cannot recommend him highly enough! From the moment we started working with him, he was incredibly thorough, organized, and clearly genuinely invested in making our wedding day as smooth and joyful as possible. In the months leading up to the wedding, Francisco helped walk us through the big checklist items for planning a wedding, ensuring we didn’t overlook a single detail while always being respectful of our choices and vision. His communication over email was always timely and clear, and our planning phone calls were always productive, efficient, and fun! One of the most valuable things he did was create a comprehensive vendor packet that centralized all final details—this was a game-changer! We didn’t have to worry about keeping track of updates or managing version control, as he seamlessly handled all communication and coordination with our vendors. His understanding of the venue layout, the timing with our photographer, and the logistics of transporting wedding items made the final decisions stress-free. We trusted him completely, and every detail turned out exactly as we’d hoped—or better! When it came time for the wedding weekend itself, Francisco expertly ran our rehearsal, navigating family dynamics with calm professionalism and making sure everyone felt comfortable and confident. On the wedding day, Francisco was a calm and reassuring presence, quietly in charge and gracefully keeping everything on track. As someone who’s very Type A and typically likes to stay on top of everything, I was amazed by how much I was able to relax and simply enjoy the day because I knew Francisco would be handling it all. Thanks to him, we could focus on celebrating with our loved ones, knowing everything was in the best hands. If you’re looking for someone who will bring warmth, expertise, and a true sense of calm to your wedding day, Francisco is your person. He made our wedding a dream come true, and we wouldn’t change a single thing. (Photos courtesy of Paperbird Photography!)

Milton Ridge was an incredible place to get married! The beauty of the venue and the inclusive wedding options (i.e. catering, DJ, etc.) made this the absolute perfect place to say, "I do!" The getting ready suites were superb & made the day of preparation before the ceremony seamless. The chapel was so beautiful and such a great little spot off the side of 355. Our guests still comment on the simplicity of how we decorated the chapel, and how beautiful the white walls and natural light streaming in were during the ceremony. I was not sure how we'd get group photos on the property... and our photographers were able to use the beautiful stone and green areas within the venue to capture the most beautiful photos of the bride, groom and the wedding party! Guests are still RAVING about how convenient it was to walk up a few stairs to the cocktail hour AND into the reception. They marveled at the ease... park your car, attend the ceremony and then stay and party all night long until it's time to leave! The reception hall was beautiful; the buffet food was to die for; and Meghan and Brandi ensured that EVERY detail of our wedding day was accounted for, seamless and flowing without any hitch! I cannot recommend Milton Ridge enough! Thank you for making our wedding day the most memorable and BEST day of our lives! We owe it to this team, this venue and their support with planning our wedding every step of the way!

We had both our ceremony and reception at the District Winery in early December. When we went to visit the winery, we both loved how unique the space was compared with other venues. It was not the traditional ballroom, high ceilings, chandeliers, rounds with tablecloths to the ground. It was warm, inviting, and rustic. Kat, our event manager, was assigned to us to execute our wedding. It was beyond helpful to have someone from the venue to assist. As the event got closer there were so many decisions to make, but Kat helped tremendously. One example was food - bride’s dad really wanted pasta, but it was not an option on the food menu. Kat discussed with the chef and made it a possibility. Although we did not end up adding pasta, the chef made a special plate for the bride’s dad (he was the only one who really wanted the pasta). Overall, we had a great experience from the bride and groom perspective, but also many of our guests commented on how nice of a venue and the quality of the food.

Andi was one of the sweetest people we've ever had the pleasure of meeting. Her experience and creative eye were just what we needed to fully capture our wedding day in a way that we could remember it forever. Watching the video that Andi created for us had us smiling throughout the entire thing and had me crying all over again by the end of it. She did such a beautiful job of capturing the entire experience from getting ready in the morning, to our first look, the natural beauty of the entire venue, to the ceremony and everyone enjoying the reception. It felt like I was there reliving my wedding day all over again. And being able to watch and hear my husband's laughter on film is something I'll cherish forever, especially when we get older. We almost didn't have a videographer for our wedding, but decided at the last minute to hire one and I'm so glad that Andi was available. I recommend Andi so highly that I wish I could give her 100000 stars.

I love how she structured her proposals—she gave us an easy slide deck with colors, sample florals and greenery, vessel options, altar shapes, and other design details. It’s informative without being overwhelming, and helped us make decisions we loved. As an LGBTQ couple, it was also lovely to work with a vendor who understood how some details may be different & help us with ideas for what was unfamiliar to us. Lastly, on wedding day, Lisa and her team move quickly and almost invisibly. The space was transformed, the vision came to life perfectly, and she checked in with us and planner all throughout to make sure we were feeling good. Thanks, Lisa!

I was attending a formal wedding in DC & needed an updo. I googled online and through Senema Beauty I was put in touch w Aida. We worked out the details via text. She came to my hotel & did my hair in about 40 minutes! It was the same price as if I had travelled to a DC salon!!! Totally worth it!! Took away a lot of stress & 2 Uber rides! It looked absolutely AMAZING!! It stayed up for over 8 hours & never lost its shape or styling in the back. Even with the 98 degree DC heat, my tendril curls that framed my face stayed curled with the finishing spray that she used. Aida is very talented and should be used for any event where you need a stunning updo! She was a true joy to work with! I wish she lived in ATL!

Awarded Best of Zola
Kelsea and Alena made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. Kelsea chatted with me via Zoom to get an idea of what the day was going to be like and the look I was going for. I did a trial at Kelsea's studio in Virginia and I got to hang out with her adorable pup while she brought my vision to life and asked me lots of helpful questions. She then took feedback from the trial so that Alena, who was my artist on my wedding day, could execute a perfected version of the trial look. My hair isn't the easiest to work with because it's very straight and fine, but Alena got it to hold its waves all night without it feeling gross and weighed down by product. She also accentuated the purple highlights I got done shortly before the wedding to match my flowers flawlessly so that the purple showed through without being overpowering. She checked in every step of the way while doing my makeup and made sure I was good with the shades that she picked. I don't usually wear a lot of makeup so I was worried about not feeling like myself, but Kelsea and Alena achieved the perfect balance between looking glamorous, but still natural. I didn't have a bridal party, but Alena did my mom's hair and makeup as well and she looked beautiful. Cannot recommend Artistry by Kelsea enough!

Ms Greene provided a dessert table and a mini cake for me and my husband at our wedding. The presentation was spectacular, her professionalism was refreshing and the desserts were absolutely delicious! The consultation leading up to the event was very simple which was very much appreciated since there was so much we had to figure out. At the reception, she came, set up and cleaned up at the end and she was like a cake ninja! Everything was done perfectly and we never even saw her!

I’m Artur full-time wedding photographer behind the Kandid Arts. As a wedding photographer with roots in Europe and a heart in the United States, I bring a unique blend of cultural influences and experiences to my craft. Born and raised in Eastern Europe, I developed a passion for photography that has only grown stronger during my last few years in the United States. For the past 6 years, I have dedicated myself to the art of wedding photography, capturing the love and joy of couples on their special day.

Working with Kandid Art was overall a great experience! They showed up on time and made sure we got all the shots we wanted. Though the wedding ran a bit behind, they were flexible. The photos turned out beautiful, and they got creative with the locations given the cold, rainy weather. They even got some funny shots of the kids at the wedding that are some of my favorites! The video was also good, although I don't love that they had to use like stock music for the background (I guess it's because of copyright issues with other songs?). I wish they would have included audio of the vows rather than the cheers of the attendees, so make sure you ask them to do that if you want it! I do love that they provided us with all the raw video footage though, as some of the most special moments didn't make the highlight video. Due to the event running behind, the cost increased a bit (which I was asked about after the wedding) due to the 2 photographers needing to split up to cover the shots. I wish they had asked me or the Wedding Coordinator about that on the day of so we could understand better what was the issue, but it was a minor thing in terms of communication. Overall 8/10 rating and would recommend.

I'm a 30-something born and bred NOVA gal that's probably a little too brazen to be in the wedding industry but nearly seven years later, I'm still in it to win it! I've coordinated over 280 weddings & managed even more for venues! So I've seen some $#!t and have learned all of the tricks of the trade. When I'm not being a boss bitch on wedding days, I love to thrift shop, go paddle boarding, watch true crime, get tattoos and travel.

Working with Farrever After Events was an absolute pleasure, especially with Meghan as the wedding coordinator. She was incredibly friendly, responsive, and organized, making the entire process seamless. We truly felt like we were part of a team, as she ensured our timeline was smoothly integrated into the overall schedule. Thanks to her thorough planning and execution, we were able to focus entirely on our role as the DJ, which is often not the case. What stood out even more was Meghan’s professionalism in handling a family emergency. She arranged for another highly skilled coordinator to be on standby, ensuring that the event would go off without a hitch regardless of her personal situation. It's rare to work with someone so dedicated and capable. We're looking forward to more events with Meghan in the future!

My fiance had them there to photograph our proposal and I liked them so much that we booked them for our engagement and wedding sessions as well. We are both slower to open up type of people and Lindsay and Greg have been really easy to talk to. We didn't feel awkward and were comfortable with them. We have some beautiful photos and everyone has complimented their work. I can be anxious, but Lindsay has been really easy to work with. She has a calm presence and I really like how she's set me at ease! Lindsay and Greg targeted their work to match things that we wanted to incorporate. I shared some Pinterest images with Lindsay and she saved them and actually posed us in them during our session! I offhandedly mentioned one of my favorite shots from our proposal during our engagement shoot and they came up with something so cute to do that matched the vibe of that right then and there! I also was honest with Lindsay about poses I didn't like up front and she made sure to pose me in a way that I felt like allowed me to be more confident and comfortable.
