Awarded Best of Zola
We wanted to highlight local vendors with an emphasis on POC, women, and queer people - and we could not be happier with Julissa. Her cheerful demeanor and ability to guide us without making us feel pressure made the process of planning a large winter wedding extremely easy. She was thorough, transparent, and a joy to work with! She checked in with us multiple times during the day to make sure our vision was captured. She delivered both the sneak peak and full gallery within a great timeframe, and everything was gorgeous!! I cannot recommend Julissa highly enough, thank you so much!

Candice did a wonderful job appeasing any concerns I had before booking with them for my wedding for both hair and makeup services for me and 2 bridal party members. During my consult Brittany was also able to ease my skins/ makeup concerns. I felt so at ease throughout the entire process with Society 11:11 – from inquiry to when I was sitting in the makeup chair on my wedding day! Brittany helped fulfill exactly what my vision for my bridal look was, and it was everything AND MORE! I felt like a princess especially since my wedding dress was a ball gown as well!

Let’s just talk about it. You spend months (sometimes years) planning your wedding - the colors, the outfits, the chargers, every little detail. But the place people gather, meet, and spend the most time? The bar. And somehow that’s the part people overlook. A great bartender sets the tone for the whole night. At Cheers, we actually care. We take time to get to know you, show up ready to celebrate with your people, and make sure the bar adds to the energy of the night - not takes away from it. Your wedding deserves that. Love y’all.

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.

Armando is very good at communicating and I'm really OCD about this - so that's a huge compliment;) Armando always creates magic, working with him truly is seamless and a dream. He's so kind and truly brings a calming presence to a somewhat chaotic day. Armando is always ready to jump in and help with the details, he's also always aware of the light and best places for GORGEOUS footage. I work with a lot of videographers, but there are very few that I highly recommend that will give you an exceptional experience - Armando is one of them. He has the sweetest (& biggest) heart and truly loves what he does - which is evident in his work and interaction with couples. When it comes to choosing your dream team, you'd be crazy not to have him as part of it!

Our first experience with LFB was in November 2023 for a friend’s wedding. My boyfriend and I at the time had started talking about the next step and how perfect this location was for a wedding. We ended up reaching out to Duncan in February 2024 to ask for a tour. Duncan gave us the full tour including the on property guest house, and we were SOLD! We signed our contract and paid the deposit that weekend. Duncan and Suzanne are so wonderful to work with too! They work with you on breaking down payments for when things are due and respond within 24 hours. As we got closer to our wedding date Duncan let us come out and tour everything again and answered all of my last minute questions. Suzanne was amazing at communicating day of lists and clean up. During our set up on Friday, Duncan came over to make sure the AC was good and if we needed anything. They had the tables and chairs closet unlocked and ready for us to set up when we got there. They give you a 4 hour window for rehearsal time but are very willing to work with you if you need more. The day of our wedding they had onsite staff to help with any issues and make sure everything went smooth on their end. Duncan personally came over after our ceremony and congratulated us and joined our celebration for some pictures. If you want a nice quiet spacious venue with amazing views, perfect golden hour picture spots, and awesome owners this is your place! All of our wedding guests raved about how perfect the barn is and how beautiful the natural wood work looks. Thank you Duncan and Suzanne for being part of our day! The Dances 11/8/2025

I'm a dreamer, a maker, a memory curator with a love for the written word. I have a master's in laughter, and am a world renown mess maker. I’m a wannabe world changer, a devoted pray-er, and an avid forgiver. I’m a barefoot kitchen dancer, a hammock reader and sun seeker, an accident-prone adventurer... and hopefully, when I look back, a professional life-rider and full-fledged compassion giver.

We are so grateful to have had Jessica from Fleurish & Bloom as our wedding florist! She was an absolute joy to work with—sweet, creative, supportive, and incredibly attentive throughout the entire process. The bouquets she created for me and my bridesmaids were absolutely stunning, and they perfectly captured the style and vibe we were hoping for. On the day of the wedding, she even built a gorgeous flower arch onsite just hours before the ceremony—it was breathtaking and one of our favorite décor elements. What really stood out was how budget-conscious she was. Whenever we had new ideas or last-minute requests, she always found thoughtful ways to make them happen without adding unnecessary cost. We truly appreciated her care, talent, and dedication, and we can’t recommend her highly enough!

Stephanie was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. On our wedding day, she was calm, friendly, and on top of it. She and her second photographer struck the perfect balance of being professional and efficient while also feeling like casual friends, which made the entire experience feel natural and fun. My husband and I felt totally comfortable with her guidance and direction during photos, and she made the whole process so easy, even with unpredictable weather and changing light. She adapted quickly and found the perfect locations around our venue to make sure we got the best possible shots. We were so excited to receive sneak peeks shortly after the wedding, and the photos were absolutely stunning. The quality was flawless and just captured the beauty of our day. She also did our engagement session, and those remain some of our favorite photos ever (other than the wedding, of course). If you’re getting married in Virginia, I cannot recommend Stephanie Jenkins and her team enough. She captured our day perfectly, and we’re so grateful to have these memories to look back on forever.
