We hosted a black-tie winter wedding (late February) with the Estate at River Run (ERR) and were blown away by the event. One of the biggest draws for us with ERR was the venue’s ability to accommodate both indoor and outdoor ceremonies and receptions with gorgeous locations for each. This allowed us to plan for an indoor ceremony but flex to an outdoor ceremony the week of the wedding to take advantage of good weather! Several months after our wedding we still have friends and family telling us how gorgeous the venue was! ERR did a wonderful job communicating during the planning process and ensuring we knew what they needed from us to host a successful event. The staff and security during the event were wonderful, the venue itself was an absolute fairytale for our wedding day. If you are looking for a venue that can host a black-tie event in central VA or the greater Richmond area, please consider ERR!

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!

My name is Leander, but most people call me LJ. I'm a wedding and family photographer based in Richmond, Virginia, and I believe that photographs aren't decoration. Your photographs are documentation of a life that's been fully lived. Loving people like Christ, paying attention to what matters to them, and showing up with intention is how I attempt to move through the world.

I had the pleasure of working with LJ for some mommy and me photos, and he was absolutely wonderful. He adapted so naturally to the kids, their energy, their silliness, even their short attention spans, and made the whole session feel effortless. He kept things fun, captured the sweetest moments, and made us all feel comfortable. Highly recommend checking him out!

Allyse Pulliam Photography Inc. is a wife and husband partnership between award-winning Richmond Times Dispatch photojournalist Allyse Pulliam and wedding photographer extraordinaire Nick Gross. We are down-to-earth, fun, and flexible, and we love our jobs. Our goal is to capture joyful, emotional, and artistic photos of your day and for you to feel happy and comfortable while we do it. We don't care who you are, where you are from, what you did (but extra points if it was cool), as long as you love each other. We are currently located in Richmond, VA and will happily travel to anywhere you may be

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot emphasize enough how happy I am with the photography services provided by Allyse and her husband Nick. We opted for 2-shooter photography rather than 1 photographer and 1 videographer for our budget, and the chemistry between the two of them made this seamless. When Allyse would focus on the more traditional shots, Nick captured more of the candid/artsy photos and wide-shots of us in the moment with our guests in the background. They were super friendly, and had a good balance of professionalism and chatty/casual conversation to get to know us and our wedding party. They had a great rapport between the two of them that allowed for us not to get too nervous when posing for pictures, because when they could sense a little bit of nerves, they would crack a joke or make us smile at exactly the right moments. And now that I’ve received our photo album back, I can see that they were able to capture those genuine laughs and smiles beautifully. I didn’t feel like any of our photos were overly staged or stiff because of this too; they created an environment where I felt natural in front of their lenses. They captured the events of our wedding day from many perspectives, and it’s given me so much joy to browse our photos and see how things looked from the guests’ views and what was going on when we were “busy” being the bride and groom. Allyse also recommended something I hadn’t thought of when we were planning what photos I wanted: a sneak-away moment as soon as our ceremony ended to get pictures of us after we’d just gotten married. The genuine happiness on our faces is so sweet to have captured forever in our photos, and it provided a little buffer period to really take in the events of our ceremony, have a moment to be just us, and mentally prepare to walk into our cocktail hour and start the party of the night! Our photos are absolutely stunning and I couldn’t be happier with their services. We received 1600 photos back about a month after our wedding day; great volume and turn-around time. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone who is in need of wedding or professional photography. I had a hard time even picking "the best" pictures to include in this review as there are so many amazing photos to choose from :)

Hali was AMAZING as our day-of coordinator for our outdoor wedding at Maymont. We woke up the morning of our wedding to rain in the forecast and naturally freaked out, but Hali kept us grounded and had everything under control! She worked day-of with our vendors to move our ceremony into our reception venue, and all we had to do was inform our guests of the new plan. I cannot imagine how much work it was in such a short time period. Once we got to the venue, the rest of our wedding day was shockingly relaxing - my husband and I spent the whole wedding being in the moment together. Hali and Alyssa handled everything - and also set up the reception area beautifully! She also handled most conversations with vendors in the months leading up to our wedding. My husband and I both have very busy jobs, and I truly don't know what we would have done if we didn't have her in the planning. I really think that if we hadn't hired Hali, we would have been overcome with stress on our big day, and I'm so glad we were able to truly enjoy it with her help. She is always on top of the details, communicative, and also very gentle and kind. Did I mention she was in her third trimester when we got married?? She's a superwoman, and one in a million. So happy we chose Forevermore weddings for our big day :)

We cannot recommend Anthony (DJ Ant Boogie) highly enough! From the planning process through the last song of the night, Anthony was an absolute pleasure to work with and played a huge role in making our wedding such a fun and memorable celebration. One of the things we appreciated most was how well he understood our vibe. He took the time to learn our musical preferences and seamlessly incorporated our favorite songs throughout the night. The dance floor was packed, and guests of all ages had an amazing time. Anthony was also an excellent MC. His announcements were clear, professional, and helped keep the day running smoothly without ever feeling intrusive. We had multiple locations throughout our venue that required music, and he transitioned between each one effortlessly. Everything from the ceremony to cocktail hour and the reception flowed perfectly. Beyond his talent as a DJ, Anthony was organized, responsive, and easy to work with throughout the planning process.

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.

Cheers! Our bartenders were amazing—friendly, professional, and a joy to work with. They poured wonderful drinks and brought a cute, cohesive aesthetic with their glassware and setup. They provided all the mixers while we supplied the alcohol, which made everything seamless and easy. We also provided an extra bar, and they were so accommodating in working with us so we could use the thrifted bar my mom and I found. It was perfect having two bars—one on the lawn and one under the tent—which helped everything flow smoothly. They were very open and kind, and even attended our wedding walkthrough, which we truly loved and appreciated. Our guests had a great experience, and everything ran so well thanks to their team.

We love the look and quality of their photos and the affordable price of the photo / video package. They were very quick with responding which is super helpful when you’re emailing a million people at a time during wedding planning and planning and prep with the Inman’s was easy and efficient. Our photos are BEAUTIFUL! They capture the charm of the venue, the joy from all our family and friends, and the love between my husband and I. We also received our photos SO quickly and got to browse through them on our honeymoon which was amazing. The Inmans were knowledgeable, professional, and created a very enjoyable experience. They’re young and hip and really understand what couples want from their wedding photos & videos these days. Wedding day was perfect! Not to mention Ashley was pregnant and still didn’t miss a beat all day!!

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!!

Please reach out through my website! I am inactive on zola. My photos are emotion-centered and in the moment. I shoot a combination of 35mm film, medium format film, polaroids, and digital photography. My goal is to notice the right moments and turn them into timeless, artistic, photos made with love - not photos that look like everyone else's. :)

Jesslyn is immensely talented. Our photos are so beautiful and are indicative of the level of skill she possesses. Working with her was a pleasure, she is communicative, and made us feel at ease throughout the planning process. Not to mention she was such a lovely presence at our wedding, our family still talks glowingly about her two months later. Overall we cannot praise Jesslyn enough, we would confidently recommend her services to anyone looking for a photographer.

From the very first planning conversation to the final moments of the wedding reception, everything was handled with professionalism, grace, and genuine care. The setting itself is beautiful--the water views, the light pouring through the windows, the way the space feels both elegant and welcoming at the same time. It creates instant magic before you even add flowers or décor. But what truly sets this venue apart is the team. Kristan Hughes is exceptional. She is calm under pressure, incredibly organized, and deeply invested in making sure every detail is executed flawlessly. Her communication was clear, her guidance was thoughtful, and her presence on the wedding day allowed everyone (especially the bride and groom) to relax and be fully present. Her team operates like a well-oiled machine. Service was seamless, transitions were smooth, and every question was handled quickly and kindly. You can tell they take enormous pride in what they do. The food was outstanding, the pacing was perfect, and the overall experience felt effortless, which we all know is the result of tremendous behind-the-scenes work. If you are considering The Boathouse at Sunday Park for your wedding or special event, do not hesitate. It is a spectacular venue supported by an extraordinary team. And SO MUCH is included in the price. We are so grateful… and will definitely be back!

Deep Run Roadhouse was very professional and communicated well with us. Everything was set up in a timely manner and our food remained hot throughout the entire reception.

The band didn't just play music—they interacted with our family and friends in a way that made everyone feel included and celebrated.
