My son recently got married at Earlyhouse, and the entire experience was nothing short of perfect. The venue was gorgeous. Everywhere you looked, there was a stunning backdrop for wedding photos. We were especially grateful to have the day-of coordinated by Katie, who worked behind the scenes to coordinate with all of us (coming from Florida, Texas, Maryland, Tennessee, & New York) and our vendors, she even managed my sons wedding timeline. It was evident that she genuinely cared about making the day special for our family. Her dedication and professionalism shined upon us the whole time. Because of Katie's expertise and dedication, we were able to relax and truly enjoy the day without any stress or concerns.

They offered thoughtful ideas and helpful feedback throughout the planning process which made everything feel easy and well supported.

Lexa Visuals was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding videography. Their communication was always timely, easy, and personable, which made the entire process stress-free. The quality of their work and the value they provided was truly exceptional - their approach was romantic, and they took our specific ideas and preferences into consideration. On the day of our wedding, we honestly forgot they were there, which was amazing for capturing all the candid, special moments. They listened to our wishes to get footage of a family heirloom that was important to us. We just received our teaser video and the tears started flowing again - it was everything we wanted and more. They even used a song that I had specially requested as a surprise to my husband. We are beyond thrilled with Lexa Visuals and would recommend them to any couple looking for a talented, thoughtful videography team to capture their big day.

She was so kind and flexible when we had some close to the wedding date change in services and helped me to make a timeline that kept me stress free and my family on time. She took it in stride when I changed my wedding day hair from what we did in our trial and even though I do not wear a lot of make-up in my day-to-day life I felt so beautiful and comfortable in the products she chose to use on my skin. Briana really listened to how I wanted to look on the wedding day and focused on making me still look and feel like me!

Ashley thrives on capturing the intimate moments where your true beauty shines. She offers a variety of photography packages for weddings of every size, style, and budget.

Do yourself a favor and hire Ashley for your wedding, event, family photos, etc. - she is absolutely AMAZING!! We hired her for our June wedding and it was the best money we spent, hands down. Everything from coordinating our engagement shoot to planning the shots we wanted at the wedding was seamless. Ashley is not just a wedding photographer; she is a true artist and has an incredible talent for styling shoots on the fly, troubleshooting in challenging environments, and making everyone feel SO comfortable. One of my main concerns with our photos was that we would look stiff - with Ashley that was not an issue. She had us laughing and feeling so relaxed from the very beginning. On our wedding day, Ashley was extremely efficient and worked around our desire to have the first look at the ceremony, while also somehow getting all the shots we wanted plus a lot more.

I got married in a courthouse and was convinced I could plan everything myself. But! There are always details to forget, timelines to miss, etc. Cassidy was so kind throughout the entire planning process. She took care of everything. She gathered data and executed a plan that made me feel supported, but not bossed around. My husband and I couldn't have done it without her!

We had the pleasure of hosting our wedding at Greenock Manor, and we could not have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, Chanel—who not only runs the venue but also served as our wedding coordinator and planner—was truly phenomenal. She is incredibly sweet, attentive, and went above and beyond to help us create a weekend we’ll never forget. Chanel connected us with amazing vendors, including our caterer, DJ, officiant, and photographer, and made the entire planning process feel seamless. She helped to ensure we were getting good prices, and she was always accommodating, communicative, responsive, and wonderfully organized, which made us feel completely at ease leading up to the big day. The venue itself is stunning—elegant, charming, and full of character. Our wedding was in late April, and the venue grounds were lush and vibrant with greenery and flowers. One of the highlights was the ample on-site lodging, which allowed the wedding party to stay with us over the weekend. Being able to spend extra time with our close friends and loved ones in such a beautiful setting made everything even more special. After the wedding, we took advantage of the fire pit on the property, and it turned out to be the perfect way to wind down with our wedding party and share a few more laughs before the weekend came to a close. We can’t recommend Greenock Manor—and Chanel—highly enough. It was everything we dreamed of and more.

Montfair was the first wedding venue my husband and I visited and we immediately fell in love with it.

We held our ceremony down by the pond and guests could watch the sun set over the changing trees and water as they had drinks. The lodge feels intimate and cozy at night; the dance floor was expansive and welcoming; and guests who wanted fresh air could enjoy the bonfire Enjoying time with our families who stayed in the cabins the next morning was a special bonus.

Grand or intimate, focused on tradition or leaning toward trendy, your vision along with our capable guidance will reflect your personal style. Our staff is committed to details, offering unique options, bringing creativity and passion to the planning process.

We cannot recommend The Local - both the restaurant and their catering team - highly enough! We got married on November 1 at Eastwood Farm and Winery in Charlottesville. The Local's catering services were exceptional from start to finish and truly elevated our entire wedding experience. I had no idea how complex the catering process for a wedding could be, but The Local guided us through every step with ease. We opted for a sit-down dinner with grilled chicken, fried chicken, or steak, served with green beans and fingerling potatoes. The food was delicious, beautifully prepared, and perfectly warm when served, even on a chilly fall day! Our catering coordinator, Eleanore, was absolutely fantastic. From our tasting, to helping us select rentals through MS Events, to the final walkthrough at the venue, and being on-site the day of, she was thoughtful, organized, energetic, and genuinely fun to work with. Her experience showed in everything she did. Knowing that The Local had worked many weddings at Eastwood also gave us so much peace of mind. They knew exactly how the day should flow, and it showed, and they worked cohesively with our planner and venue staff. Eleanore and the entire team went above and beyond in every way. If you’re considering The Local for your event or wedding, do it. They’re an absolute standout.

I don't know how our full gallery could get any better, but I know she will somehow continue to deliver way beyond our expectations. She is literally an artist and truly captures the magic of the day. I found Eilish when I was researching a potential wedding venue, and she had written a blog about that venue and had pictures from a wedding she had captured there. I found myself looking through her work of who were complete strangers to me and feeling as if I was part of the day. I felt like I was witnessing the raw emotions the couple was feeling and the little moments between the two of them that went unnoticed to the rest of the guests. Her work showed the candid laughs between the wedding party and the sweet embraces between the couple and their grandparents. I immediately knew I wanted all of that. I wanted all of those little moments captured that would have otherwise been forgotten. The real, unposed, raw moments. That is exactly what we got and we could not be more grateful. Witnessing love is seeing your wedding day captured by Eilish. On top of being wildly talented, she also is extremely responsive, has an awesome guide that answers any questions you could possibly have, and sends out a detailed questionnaire before the wedding day to make sure she captures any little details you want. She is also so sweet and just a great person. For our wedding she had a second shooter, Kelly Spaine, who was equally awesome and literally felt like a ride-or-die capturing all of the wedding picture requests from guests. Both Eilish and Kelly captured our day while also being extremely unobtrusive. We never felt like we were at a forced red carpet event that happened to be our wedding. They were THE best team we could have asked for. Eilish doesn't know it yet, but I have already made sure her website says she does family photos... because we need her for all of our life events. Long review short, if you want pictures you will be proud to pass down for generations... book Eilish.

Captivating Complexion 
Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
  • Beauty professional
  • Team of 3
  • Starts at $625
  • Serves Louisa, VA

Congratulations on your engagement! We hope to be your ultimate hype girls and set the tone for your big day! Captivating Complexion is a small elite makeup team built up of individual artists that specializes in beauty built around you. While based in Charlottesville our artists are located in Richmond, Lynchburg and Charlottesville - we travel up and down Virginia to bring the best on-site wedding makeup services, and energy, to you. We know you are probably coming from out of town for your wedding so we have conveniently located our gorgeous store front next to the airport and on the north end of Charlottesville. It's Time To Glam!

One of the things that people don't always think about when choosing a makeup artist is that this person is going to be with you during some of the most intimate and exciting moments of your wedding day. Looking back, I can confidently say that choosing Meg was one of the best decisions I made. From the very beginning, Meg was warm, welcoming, and so easy to connect with. She has the friendliest, most open personality, and I genuinely felt like we were friends long before the wedding day arrived. When your wedding morning finally comes, the energy surrounding you matters so much, and she and her second artist helped create such a fun, relaxed, and positive atmosphere while we were getting ready. I also cannot recommend doing a makeup trial enough, and Meg made that experience so valuable. Not only did it give me confidence in my wedding day look, but it gave us the opportunity to meet, talk through my vision, and make sure everything felt exactly right. She was incredibly receptive to feedback and completely open to any tweaks or adjustments I wanted to make. On the wedding day, she absolutely nailed it. My makeup photographed beautifully, lasted all day and night, and held up through happy tears, hugs, and hours of celebrating. Most importantly, I felt like the best version of myself. I still look back at our photos and love the way everything turned out. If you're looking for a makeup artist who is exceptionally talented, professional, energetic, and someone you'll genuinely enjoy spending your wedding morning with, Meg is your person. She was such an important part of my DREAM team, and I am so grateful!!

We loved our wedding at Tiffin Farm! The views, the versatility of the barn’s style, the cocktail hour location, and much more! The location is conveniently less than 30 minutes from downtown Charlottesville, much more convenient than other venues we looked at. We couldn’t recommend it more to any couple looking for a venue in the Charlottesville area!

I got married at Hardware Hills in March 2025. It was hands down the best day of my life and I couldn't have picked a better place to get married. My now husband and I toured the venue in the Fall of 2024 while the new event space was in the process of getting built. Lori was amazing at keeping me updated on the progress and the finished product turned out amazing. I enjoyed working with the entire Hardware Hills team and would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for an event space. The bridal suite is so beautiful and easily accommodated my bridal part of 6 plus other members of my family that was getting ready there that day. The groom and his groomsmen enjoyed getting to relax at the cottage the morning of the wedding. Everything was so amazing! If you're looking for a wedding venue, definitely check this place out.

Hi! I'm Kelly! I'm a wedding and portrait photographer based in Charlottesville, VA. My specialty is couples' photography - surprise proposals, engagement sessions, and weddings! I capture love stories all over Virginia and Washington DC! Everyone's story matters. That's why I believe it is important to let my clients know that I am an LGBTQIA+ and BLM ally.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kelly is truly such a talented photographer! We have worked together countless times at this point and I am still amazed at her ability to create such a comfortable environment for her couples. She always puts everyone at ease knowing exactly what pose will look the most flattering and natural. On top of that she is probably the best hype-woman I've ever had the pleasure of working with! No matter who you are, she'll be sure to get a good laugh out of you and make sure you know that you look great in your photos. Her galleries are stunning with bright and colorful true to life edits that will definitely stand the test of time. I highly recommend Kelly to everyone!

Hi there. I originally hail from Georgia, but am so happy to now call Charlottesville my home. When I'm not chasing down perfect sunlight, you can usually find me tucked away somewhere with a book, writing, enjoying life with my partner Charles, styling my 1920s home, or snuggling with my Frenchie pup, Finny.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment I found her, I just knew I wanted her to be our wedding photographer. There was something about her work and the way she captured people that immediately stood out to me, and she exceeded every expectation. She photographed both our engagement session and our wedding day, and every single image is absolutely beautiful. She has such an incredible eye for capturing not only the big moments, but also the little details and candid memories that make the day so special. These are photos we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives. Beyond her talent behind the camera, she brought such a calm, reassuring presence throughout the entire experience. On a day that can feel overwhelming, having someone with that kind of energy made all the difference. She also went above and beyond long before the wedding day itself—helping me choose outfits for our engagement session, offering thoughtful advice, and making sure we felt confident and prepared every step of the way. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. If you’re looking for someone who creates stunning images while making you feel completely at ease, she is the one.

Over all the venue was great everything was well kept. A little packed in the cabins due to the school supplies being in there but overall very clean and easy to communicate with the venue.

To put it simply, we love planning weddings. There's something magical about taking every little detail of such an important occasion and bringing them together to create lifelong memories for our couples and their families. ​ Based in beautiful Charlottesville, we are an experienced wedding and event planner team dedicated to making your dream wedding come to life. We don't want any couple (or their families) to have the stress of managing all of the event details on the wedding day. After all, the guests of honor should be enjoying every moment!

Working with Nadia was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very first meeting, she was kind, professional, creative, and organized. Every detail was handled with such care and we truly felt supported throughout the entire planning process. She understood our vision perfectly and elevated it in ways we never could have imagined. Her communication was always prompt, and on the wedding day itself, everything flowed wonderfully. We even tried out a new layout/timeline for our venue, and she nailed it! We were able to relax and fully enjoy the day knowing she was handling everything. Our wedding was beyond anything we dreamed of, and we owe so much of that to Nadia and Mary Elizabeth Events. If you’re looking for a planner who is organized, creative, organized, open, and genuinely invested in making your day perfect, look no further :)

Sam Hill Entertainment is based out of Charlottesville, VA with bands located throughout the Southeast. Over the last 25 years, Sam Hill has helped tens of thousands of brides and grooms book the best in live music across the 50 states and for fly-in international weddings! Our bands cover Top 40 hits, fiery versions of Soul, smooth versions of Motown, elegant jazz classics, toe-tapping bluegrass, and country - it all exists among the performers we work with!

We used Sam Hill Entertainment to book the band “The Dickens”. This is the part of our wedding everyone is still talking about. They played such a variety that every age was able to enjoy. Not a single person was sitting at the tables while the Dickens were on the stage. They were very interactive with the crowd and even let the groom (a guitar player) get up there and jam out with them. This was such a fun addition to the wedding and we loved every minute of it!
