  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,000

**If you are interested in booking me, please contact me via my website or Facebook to reach me! As I do not respond here** Hey! My name is Chelsi! I have lived in the Charlottesville area all of my life. I found my passion for photography in high school while working on yearbook staff. I never thought I would come to enjoy photography and the amazing people I photograph so much! I work full time as a Radiologic Technologist at a local hospital. I perform CT Scans and X-rays for patients there. My main passion in life is making people smile and to travel the world.

From the moment we met Chelsi, my husband and I knew we were in good hands. Her warm, guiding communication style immediately put us at ease and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire wedding day. Chelsi's professional yet funny demeanor helped calm my nerves and she provided helpful suggestions for poses and positioning that resulted in stunning, natural-looking photos. Having worked with Chelsi for around 4 years, I can attest to her incredible talent and ability to make you feel like family. Her work is truly top-notch, with photos that are both creative and timeless. Chelsi was open to all of our ideas and exceeded our expectations, delivering a wonderful collection of memories that we will cherish forever.

Julie, Scott, and their team made our wedding day perfect. From the first site visit and throughout the planning process, they were amazing communicators. The venue has gorgeous outdoor spaces for the ceremony and cocktail reception. The indoor space is flexible for a reception with a dance floor. There are chairs for both the ceremony and reception as well as tables. We chose to have a June wedding and when the temps entered the upper 90s, we were grateful for the A/C reception space. Even better, there are two suites that the wedding party can use to make for a seamless process getting ready. We enjoyed our experience so very much. Lastly, the bathrooms there were also excellent and let’s be real, that’s a crucial component for any good party.

Josh and Tiffany and the team at Lydias were phenomenal leading up to the day and on the day! They graciously allowed us to visit the venue multiple times to make sure that all of our information was straight and decided upon. We were luckily able to have almost all of the lodge rooms booked up along with a couple of cabins which made the whole weekend even better! Everything that would be needed for a wedding is provided, ceremony chairs, an arbor, reception tables and chairs, and even centerpieces! Having an in house catering team is also a huge plus and one less vendor we had to do research on. Having a bridal suite on site was critical so that we could have enough space and not have to worry about transportation. I would recommend this venue over and over again for any event!

Lovingston winery was so incredible for our wedding! I would go back there a million times over! Tessa is SO responsive that it’s almost unbelievable how quick she replies haha. It makes your planning a breeze! Her and Wes are so kind and helpful and will genuinely make your wedding a dream come true! You also get to stay at the farmhouse on site which is an incredible place to stay and the perfect place to get ready. They are super dog friendly which was important to us. You can use whatever catering you want and can even provide your own alcohol (with ABC license) which makes it so affordable. They also have lots of items that you can rent from them and will recommend vendors that are great. They truly made our wedding absolute perfection and we cannot wait to go back to visit Lovingston winery for many years to come! Choose them, no questions asked!!!

Hello I'm Katelyn owner and lead planner for Champagne Wishes. Congratulations on your engagement and thank you for clicking on Champagne Wishes' profile. The CW team is very dedicated to every client, and work incredibly hard to help you throw the wedding you have been dreaming of for your guests. We work with you every step of the way. No wedding is the same; it never should be, and we always treat it as such.

Awarded Best of Zola
Champagne Wishes helped us plan and execute our 75-person wedding in June 2025 in just four months – we’re not sure how we would have done it without them! Starting from our consultation, Katelyn was extremely personable and encouraging. We were of course nervous about our tight timeline, but she quickly made us feel at ease. She honored our vision, asked the right questions, and helped us be decisive during the planning process when we needed it. Sulli took over as our day-of-coordinator and did an amazing job memorizing our timeline and all the small details of the day. She managed parking attendants from CW and tricky traffic down our venue’s one-lane road with ease, ensuring our guests had a seamless experience. Both Katelyn and Sulli were great communicators, answering our many questions in a timely manner and handling all communication with the vendor team as we approached the big day. The best testimony of how well they worked together was that after the wedding we had multiple guests and even fellow vendors remark on how smooth and effortless the day felt. We are so grateful to the entire team and we highly recommend Champagne Wishes for all your wedding planning needs! As a side note, we also worked with CW for some day-of rentals such as gorgeous wooden benches for our ceremony, cocktail tables, and LED candles. They have a large, well-priced inventory and it was super convenient to get everything in one place. Definitely recommend taking a look!

Kim Hayden was amazing to work with. Kim thought of (and remembered) every detail I told her. She was 100% on board with my vision and made it happen. I was able to use my own china which I had collected for my special day. We got married on the 10th Green, had the cocktail hour under the Pavilion and then our reception was in the Ballroom. The Glenmore had a champagne wall for my use, linens, lanterns, bars, and even candle holders. We added some of our own touches, but Glenmore is full service. From the prosecco wall, the the lighted hedge behind our cake, to putting our printed menus in the perfect spot. Our wedding was perfection. The views are phenomenal. The food was delicious - we served buffet style to make sue of my china and the kitchen did it all right. We had plated salads (tomato and mozzarella) then buffet steak, shrimp in grits, gnocchi with vegetables, roasted potatoes and asparagus. Everything was amazing. The Glenmore was so accommodating. They let us add a sparkling rose and rose to our wine choices - which felt so right with our theme. They had a hedge to put behind our cake table, which we added a personalized sign to, flowers and fairy lights. Glenmore let us have a photo booth in the ball room lobby, and we used their gorgeous farm tables to set out framed photos and favors. I had the absolute best time at my wedding. I highly recommend the Glenmore as a venue. It has gorgeous views, super friendly staff, they are diligent and 100% know how to throw a wedding. I have no regrets entrusted them with my special day and I have the absolute best memories. Thank you Kim and Molly!

spent a whole weekend here for my wedding. If you're looking for a stress free and organized wedding Chanel is your girl. She had a complete timeline for all things and makes sure the bride doesn't have to do a thing. Her venue is very beautiful, vintage, and just perfect! The rooms are beautiful, however the only downfall we had were the beds were not comfortable at all which made it difficult to fall asleep. We had her husband Jim officiate our wedding as well, he is just as helpful and sweet as Chanel is.

Montfair was the first wedding venue my husband and I visited and we immediately fell in love with it. Private, understated but very well kept up, naturally gorgeous, and diverse in its landscapes, Montfair allowed us to create an experience that felt worlds away and truly magical. 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. The team is resourceful and warm. This is a precious place!

The Local is a full-service catering company that specializes in weddings, social gatherings & corporate events. 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 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 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.

I don’t even know where to start. Audra was amazing, I don’t know how but we had crazy weather for both our engagement shoot (Canadian wild fires making it the smokiest day of a decade) and our wedding (hottest day of a decade at 100 degrees feels like 110). But Audra could not have been more amazing, she was so flexible and handled all the weather hurdles like such a pro. She was able to take all the photos we wanted and make us feel so comfortable while doing so. She captures such beautiful moments and was so patient when people were late or grumpy about the heat. She then handed us some of the most beautiful photos I’ve ever seen and made me feel so gorgeous and that I was back in the moment with my husband. I seriously love every photo so much I think she has such a gorgeous style that can take a simple moment and turn it into a work of art. I cannot recommend her enough.

L'etoile Catering 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
  • Caterer
  • Serves Stanardsville, VA

We began serving Charlottesville with French and Virginia-inspired cooking at our restaurant, l’etoile, in 1993. Our catering business grew out of that experience, and out of our desire to take part in the celebrations, the rituals, and the ceremonies of people throughout the Central Virginia community. Catering allows us to reach, care for, and serve a larger audience, and to customize consistently excellent culinary experiences for our clients. We have a history of procuring the finest, freshest ingredients for the meals we create and serve, and access to those ingredients through relationships we’ve cultivated for more than 20 years.

Awarded Best of Zola
Vickie and Mark of L'Etoile made our wedding incredible from the moment we first started discussions with them. They were incredibly knowledgeable, knowing all of the important logistics that will matter during the day, caring, ensuring that all guests (and the married couple) were fed, and flexible, making changes with us as we moved through the planning process. The food was delicious and our tasting with Vickie and Mark was probably the highlight of our planning process. They worked with various allergies and dietary restrictions and made sure that the night flowed seamlessly. I also want to highlight that Vickie is incredibly kind and supportive of her staff, making sure that they were learning great skills in a supportive environment. As someone who has worked food service and catering before, seeing this made me feel even better about our choice to work with them.

We had our wedding at Boxwood Villa on May 4, 2024, and it was completely perfect. Our family from out of town came a few days early to get settled and prepare, and there was plenty of space for us to spread out and also to hang out together. The beds were insanely comfortable and the accommodations were amazing. While we planned to have the ceremony on the front lawn, the rain had other plans and the team jumped into action and was ready to host our 30 guests on the spacious, gorgeous covered porch. The cocktail hour was held on the first level, and the beautiful house made for some incredible photo opportunities. The lawn was the most amazing place for the tent where our reception was held, and it was just as magical as everywhere else. Everyone commented on how perfect the venue was, including my family. I can't wait to visit again in the future to re-live these incredible memories. Thank you, Boxwood Villa!!!

Hi, lovebirds. I’m Cassidy, a big-hearted type A and perpetual wanderluster. I’m here to take the stress off your shoulders and your timeline off your plate. So you can savor the champagne, the getting-ready playlist, the dinner-then-dancing flow of it all. With a background in ballet and a decade of experience choreographing everything from stage productions to global conferences, I know how to keep things moving beautifully. Planning a wedding isn’t just about wielding clipboards. It’s about intentionally making space for joy- your joy.

We could not have been more fortunate to work with Cassidy for our October wedding. Cassidy and whole the EL team were absolutely amazing from start to finish. We knew planning our wedding from abroad would be a challenge to coordinate, but Cassidy made the entire process feel truly effortless. Cassidy is so organized, kind, and supportive. She made it easy to make decisions and was a fantastic sounding board - she always said yes to our ideas (cutting 5 cakes!!) and found ways to make everything come to life beautifully. Our wedding day was seamless. Our guests kept commenting on the attention to detail and how smooth everything felt. The whole weekend was flawless, and it really stood out when our other vendors went out of their way to let us know how fantastic Cassidy was and to compliment her for being so great to work with. She went above and beyond in so many thoughtful ways and made us feel so cared for every step of the way. We’re endlessly grateful for Cassidy and the EL team. Our wedding was perfect, and we owe so much of our experience to Cassidy. Thank you!!!

I feel so incredibly lucky to have gotten to work with Tai for my March 2025 wedding. I had never gotten my makeup professionally done before, and honestly had some nerves going into the process. I knew from pictures that I felt like Tai’s style fit what I was envisioning, and in the first minutes of meeting Tai, I knew I was in good hands. She is such a kind and bubbly person, the trial felt like catching up with an old friend. Seeing myself in the mirror both on the trial and on the wedding day, I felt truly beautiful and confident. I felt like me, but elevated. On top of that, she also helped to cover a scar that I got on my back from an unexpected procedure a month prior to my wedding. I felt so insecure about it, and she was able to cover it with ease. As for the look itself, it lasted all night, through happy tears and a hot dance floor. One of the best wedding vendors out there, would definitely work with her again!!

Wow.. I genuinely don’t even know where to start with Avonlea. My husband and I are still riding our wedding high after our September wedding here. The staff is so kind and so helpful, the entire process was honestly seamlessly! From the moment my husband I stepped on property for our tour, Debbie and Clint made us feel right at home. They sat down and asked questions about us and our vision and you can tell they genuinely love what they do. Our wedding day went so smoothly thanks to them and their team, and the grounds!! The grounds are just absolutely stunning! I love and will cherish this venue for life! I also cannot stop gushing to everyone about Connie, our coordinator. She was honestly the best and cares SO much about her brides and their day going smoothly.. Seriously, Avonlea and their people really make you feel at home!
