We had an amazing experience working with Slic Vic and Toussaint Productions for our wedding entertainment.

Living my best life in suburban Maryland. I love art and being creative, so photography just seemed like the next step after being an actor for 15 years. Storytelling is a HUGE part of my life- whether it’s sitting around the dinner table recounting funny memories or looking at old photographs of my own family. Some of the best stories in the world were told without words. I am a D&D, gaming, and SQL nerd, I have a newfound love of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and I am a proud plant mom. Never been married before? I'm here to hold your hand.

Awarded Best of Zola
We LOVED her! She did an amazing job at working with us through all the unknowns of getting married during COVID and being so flexible and understanding, and even giving tips and recommendations on how to navigate through changes in plans due to the virus. Her aesthetic is just a dream and all our photos had just the right vibe. Her personality is easy going and funny, and made us feel comfortable taking photos because we are NOT by any means social media models ok! Her pricing is by far fair for the quality of work and professionalism received. I would have her do all of my family photos moving forward for all of eternity if she didn't move from San Diego. If you get the opportunity to work with her, DO. IT.

DJ Nilla absolutely crushed it at our wedding! From start to finish, he was professional, friendly, and an absolute joy to work with.

CJ was a life saver for our wedding! Starting with meeting him for the first time, he was super understanding and helped guide us with what our ideal wedding sounded like. He was super approachable and responsive to our questions. When we sent him our playlists for what we wanted him to play he went over each song and made sure he had the correct song by the correct artist which was super helpful. Now for where he saved our wedding! Our venue made a mistake of using our props for a wedding the night before but when CJ found out, he offered to use his cold sparks for us which was absolutely amazing! He kept the party alive and the fun flowing! We had so many guests come up to us during and after asking us if where we found CJ and loved his work.

Over a year after our wedding, we still often look at the AMAZING photos Bethany captured for us on our wedding day. Do not hire ANY other photographer in the metro Washington, DC area if you want crystal clear, flattering, well-composed, and gorgeous photos of your wedding. Bethany is a delight to work with. She is calm, patient and considerate. She and her second shooter captured every conceivable aspect of our wedding that made it special to us and our guests. Bethany did it all with a smile. It was a huge relief to find a photographer who exceeded our highest hopes for a partner in preserving images of our day.

I am a mobile makeup artist based out of Annapolis, MD. I have 6+ years of experience and specialize in bridal makeup. I also have my license in Esthetics and I am always continuing my education for makeup. My goal is to always make you feel your most confident before leaving my chair!

Lauren did an amazing job as the sole makeup artist for my wedding day. She did my makeup as well as 8 others and executed all the looks perfectly! I did a trial with Lauren a few months before my wedding which was really nice to go over all the options and discuss the look I was going for. Closer to the wedding day, I decided I wanted to change up the eye makeup palette for the wedding. I reached out to Lauren letting her know and sent her and inspiration pic. She was so supportive of the change and on the day of she CRUSHED IT. The execution truly exceeded my expectations. Another important callout is the makeup lasted all night: through the ceremony, reception, dancing, sweating, and the after-party! I had a friend comment at 1 am (12 hours after the makeup was applied) saying how it still looked perfect. I'm not sure I can praise Lauren enough. I felt so beautiful, yet still felt like myself. Even months after the wedding looking at my makeup, I have no regrets. Thank you Lauren for making me feel so beautiful!

My journey into the wedding industry may be unconventional, but it has given me the skills and expertise to execute flawless events with ease. I started my career as a civil engineer, managing large-scale projects where problem-solving, attention to detail, and seamless coordination were essential. While I loved the technical side of it, what truly excited me was bringing a vision to life—orchestrating every moving piece to ensure a successful outcome. Now, I’ve combined my love for organization and creativity into wedding coordination and event planning, where I help couples turn their dream weddings into reality.

Exactly one week ago, I married the love of my life. I could not have managed the stress of planning a wedding without the grace of God and EventBay, LLC. From consultation to day of, Bashan McLeod (owner) exuded professionalism, profoundness and poise. Her skillset, knowledge and expertise of wedding planning and event planning provided a sense of ease and allowed me to focus on the only important thing…marrying my husband. Lol. I retained the Day of Coordinator service from EventBay, LLC. and the Event Agenda a la cart service to make my big day manageable. Bashan went above and beyond, she always did a monthly check up on me to see how I was doing before her services started. And when the 30 days out started, this business owner was on it! She also recommended vendors when my now husband and I were stuck and could not find a DJ. My entire wedding party was in awe of the seamless transitions between timeline tasks and how Bashan and her team got us together. I am so very grateful to have found EventBay, LLC. I literally had no clue what I was doing. Bashan was clear and concise, personable, and fancy. I would definitely utilize EventBay, LLC.’s services again in the future for any event. Truly a God send!!!!

Huge thank you to Deb and the BMG staff. From our first tasting, the communication and coordination with everyone at Be My Guest was amazing. Deb really made planning our menu and rental needs so easy - she knew exactly what to ask and what details were needed - which shows how experienced she is in the field. The food was FANTASTIC. Weddings have the reputation of not having good food, but all of our guests raved about how good their meal was. When it comes to service, they are top notch. Servers coordinated to bring food out quickly, bartenders were friendly, and Deb always made sure my drink was full. If you need a caterer for your wedding (or any event), Be My Guest is the way to go.

Your wedding is one of the most meaningful days of your life and your florals shouldn’t be an afterthought or feel like copy + paste from other weddings you’ve been to. This is most likely the most you will ever spend on flowers. It’s important to get them just right. You’re working so hard to create a wedding day that is a reflection of what is most important to the two of you and who you are. Why should your flowers be any different? I design arrangements that reflect your vision and respect your budget.

Lindsey was the florist for a wedding I coordinated recently and was wonderful to work with! She's very kind and was a great addition to the couple's wedding day team!! She really got the vibe the bride was looking for and the flowers looked amazing!

Hi, I’m Yelitza (Je-lit-sa ... don't worry! I got you). I’m a photographer, wife, nurse, fur-mom of three, new avid hiker, and a pretty darn good baker; and I’m here (dramatic pause) to tell your story. I found photography my freshman year of high school (I needed some credits in a pinch and this was it), three days in class and I was in love. Fast forward a few year (hey! hey! not too many years... Watch it! lol) and I'm still just as in love as that third day.

My fiancé and I have worked with Yelitza twice and both experiences have been fantastic! She has made us both feel extremely comfortable both times and had great communication with us both times. During our first session she photographed us with our 6-month-old puppy who is very energetic she was very patient with him and was able to get great group shots of all of us. Our latest photography session was a rooftop city session and the photos came out absolutely amazing again! I would highly recommend Yelitza!
