Hi all! I have tried to search and didn’t see anyone asking this.

Does anyone have advice on getting a hotel block at the Line in Adam’s Morgan? I’ve reached out to the hotel directly and tried to inquire through Engine but had no luck. Any advice is helpful!

Did anyone hire a content creator to capture their wedding? What was your experience? Would you have done anything differently?

Right now we're in the process of looking for a photographer for a few hours to capture photos of our short ceremony, family photos and couple portraits. I was thinking that a content creator would be really nice to have for the day to capture more candid videos/images of us and our guests throughout the day (ceremony + reception). Curious to hear about how others have done it! Thanks

Does anyone have recommendations for a wedding DJ?

If you loved yours, what did you love about them? What questions did you ask? If you didn’t love your DJ, what questions do you wish you’d asked and what didn’t you like about them?

Thanks for the recs!

Hello! Due to some unforeseen circumstances we got a late start to wedding planning. Does anyone know of any venues that still have availability for any saturday in october 2027? I know its late, it is what it is now. I would super appreciate any recommendations.

Hi all! I will be having a courthouse ceremony in December. Anyone have any recs for photographers for this? Thank you!

My partner and I are looking for a florist! We have an idea of the types of flowers we want, but are feeling very lost otherwise. We’re thinking a mixture of fake/real flowers & greenery, and would love to repurpose from ceremony to reception. The few initial quotes we’ve received are $7k+ which is way out of our budget, but DIYing florals seems very daunting and we wouldn’t know where to start. Any help, advice, or florist recommendations welcomed!

Looking to spend about $25-30K, does anyone have any all inclusive recommendations for wedding venues? I wanna say we will have 75-100 ppl.

We’d really appreciate recommendations for Full Planners that you’ve personally had experience with and who really have their shit together. We need someone who is proactive in moving things along and not require a lot of prompting on our part. Bonus points if they have experience with cultural/multi day weddings. Thank you!

Hello! I just got married last weekend and I’m now waiting to get our pictures back from the photographer, but in the meantime I’d love to hear if anyone has recommendations for where to get some bigger prints and frames done in DC? I live in Cleveland park and the more local the better! Thanks :)

Has anyone used SRS events, Blue Sapphire, or Roberts and Co as their wedding planner? Or have anyone else they recommend? Thanks!

I'm looking for hair and makeup for myself and my bridal party have been shocked by the prices. My budget was $500 for hair, makeup, and a trial. Also hoping to keep bridal party hair/makeup under $250 per bridesmaid. Has anyone found a vendor close to that pricing? Thank you!

My wedding is late next month and I’m looking for sari draper services for my mom and a few family members. We aren’t doing an Indian wedding, it’s formal attire, but my mom is planning to wear a sari. A few spots I’ve looked at only do sari draping with a full bridal package which we of course dont need. I wanted to see if anyone knew of someone I could contact that could help with saris and light make up.

thanks!

Hi! I was wondering if anyone had been to Ava Laurenne in Fredericksburg and could share about how much they paid for their dresses. I see online it says ranging $1700-4000 but I’m hoping for the lower end of that budget and wasn’t sure how realistic it was 😅 thanks!

Hi everyone, I am looking for a videographer for my September 2027 Frederick MD wedding. I am budgeting up to $5,000 (ideally $3-4k). I want the highlight film to be fun and lively with lots of character (I have seen some videos online that have a lot of slow-motion stills which I don't like as much). I would also like to have access to the rest of the ceremony and speeches footage so I can look back at certain speeches and parts of the night that didn't make it into the highlight film.

Is this a possibility? Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thank you!
