I've filmed dozens of weddings, been to many as a guest, a groomsman in several, and finally got…read moremarried myself last month and I can definitively say, Southern Provisions is my favorite wedding venue I have ever had the privilege of going to. 2020 has been a tough time to plan a wedding, and somehow, with every conversation, Rebekah Moody put both mine and my wife's mind at ease with answered questions, and with her generous spirit and positivity. We got engaged in February and had been wedding planning since then. Everything was made clear from the get go. It's very clear that Rebekah has a passion for people, weddings and for couples. The format of southern provisions venue rental for weddings is also excellent. Having the extra days built in to the rental to get things done at a steady pace makes the wedding day infinitely less stressful. As someone who likes to do everything in one day/knock everything out at once, I didn't fully appreciate this perk until it was happening, but It was great. There are countless other ways that choosing to get married at Southern Provisions was the best wedding planning decision we could make. If you're on the fence, or have any questions for someone who's had a wedding at the venue, my personal email is samthehanson@gmail.com. Send me an email. I am 100% down to let you know how AMAZING Southern Provisions is as a venue, and how tremendously sweet Rebekah Moody is as a person.

Do not ever use this business. Owner is a liar and a cheat. I booked my wedding here and was so…read moreexcited to use Rebekah Moody's beautiful space. Upon COVID occurring, she illegally changed her taxes to take away the use of the ceremony room (forcing us to get married in the same room as our reception with guests sitting at tables) and took away the use of the dishes she has. I would have no issue with her had she of refunded monies for both ceremony room and dishes, but we had to rent out of our own pocket. You cannot expect for someone to contract and pay for something and then take it away without compensation. She breached the contract illegally twice without compensation and I've spoken to 3 other brides who she has done the same too who I also encouraged to take her to court over, as what she has done is ILLEGAL. I would of had so much grace had I of seen her attempt to make up for what she was taking away, as she expressed she was going to go bankrupt, hence taking away these things and disgustingly blaming it on COVID. She took these things away and expected us to be totally fine with that. We took her to court and she claimed my parents refused to pay, which is a total lie, in fact, she refused to take funds from us more than the deposit until she was sure what was going on with COVID which we professionally complied. Then she also claimed that my parents were unemployed to the judge... just what? Rebekah Moody is something else. She also tried to lie to the judge and tell him we brought 120 guests in, when we never went over 75 (her max is 80 currently). Mind you, she had no problem bringing in a bride and her family to tour the space on OUR DAY, well exceeding her occupancy on her own after forcing us to cut 1/3 of our guests 16 days before the wedding, which we did. During our meetings with her, I had stayed quiet and let my coordinator speak. At one point, I finally spoke up and began apologizing for how sorry I was that all of this was happening to her business, and said I understand this is difficult, and she rolled her eyes and I kid you not, stood up in the middle of my sincere kindness and left the room while I was still talking, in the middle of a professional meeting. She disappeared for 30 minutes and we didn't find her until my mom went and sought her out. After that meeting, I told my now husband I've never been more embarrassed in my life and he told me I had no reason to be, only she did. She acted more unprofessionally and immaturely than a teenager. I'm sorry Mrs. Moody, this shouldn't have gone this way had you of compensated what was contracted for. You cannot breach a contract in multiple places without compensation and act like that is fair. If it is in the contract and the price is agreed upon, that is what is to be given. Beautiful venue, not beautiful owner. If despite this, you still choose to use her, please be careful, she is a dirty business owner.

Every other venue was double the cost, and still didn't compare. From the breathtaking Mountain View's to the immaculate getting-ready suites, we knew right away this was the one. The staff was kind, responsive, and helpful from the very beginning, and they worked with us to book immediately after our tour. We ended up driving 2.5 hours for our wedding here, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat. It was booked far in advance (for good reason!), so we didn't get our original date -- but we were thrilled just to get in. We ended up with a July wedding and the weather was perfect. Yes, it was warm, but we planned ahead with fans as favors, and no one cared once they saw the view. The venue itself is clean, beautifully maintained, and laid out so thoughtfully. The getting-ready spaces for both the guys and girls were by far the nicest of any venue we toured. Everything felt peaceful, elegant, and easy. Our guests were in awe -- they made a weekend of it and kept telling us it was the best wedding they'd ever been to. Out of 200 invited, about 120 came, and the entire day felt just right. If you're looking for a venue that's stunning, organized, and elegant -- without spending $10k just to book it -- Cedar Oaks Farm is absolutely the one. I recommend it to anyone who wants the perfect view and a flawless experience.

That was our initial reaction to the family photos that Alina shot for us this past weekend. My wife, dog (Macy), and I want to do yearly family photos and needed a photographer in the Northern Virginia area. After a few google searches, we came across Alina Thomas Photography - and we were sold. Alina is THE BEST photographer we have ever worked with, not only was she extremely flexible with our schedule she went out of her way to make us feel comfortable during the shoot. I believe one of the key elements that differentiate a good photographer from a great photographer is their ability to make the shoot fun and you feel comfortable. Alina talked us through each of the poses and looks she needed to get the perfect shot, and the results are amazing! I wish we knew about Alina when we were looking for our wedding photographer, after seeing some of her wedding albums and then experiencing her in action first hand I would have booked her over all the others. With that said, my wife and I could not be more pleased with the photos we received - we will definitely be using her for our family photos next year and referring her to all of our friends. If you need a phenomenal photographer for your engagement, wedding, or just family pictures Alina Thomas Photography is the only photography I will recommend.
