He was so unobtrusive the day of the wedding-managing to capture every moment, without being in the way like so many photographers. His calm personality made planning so simple.

My husband and I used Holly Cromer as our engagement and wedding photographer. I also booked a…read moreboudoir session with her as a surprise wedding gift for my husband-to-be. Holly did a great job with all of our photos. During my boudoir session she was very good to give directions on how to pose. I thought that I would feel nervous or self conscious, but she made me feel very comfortable. I could tell that she had spent time preparing for the shoot as she had many ideas and poses sketched out. The photos turned out amazing and my husband was definitely surprised and loved the end result. Our wedding photos turned out just as beautiful. Holly did a great job capturing our day and provided us with a set of pictures that look like they belong in a bridal magazine. If you're in Blacksburg and need a photographer, Holly Cromer is the way to go.

DJ Joey was the DJ at my recent wedding. He was very fun, and definitely kept the party going. He…read moreplayed all of the music that we requested him to, and made sure that everyone was having a good time. Kings Entertainment was able to accommodate us when certain details had changed suddenly due to time restraints by other vendors/items, which really helped us out a lot (and made me stress a whole lot less!!). I would definitely recommend this company for any future weddings or events. You won't be disappointed!

I can not give Shannon enough stars! She did the photography for our wedding in Northern Virginia…read more Not only did she make the trip with her assistant Lindsey, but she delivered the best photos ever. Her calm nature helped keep everyone calm throughout the weekend and she was able to quietly take photos of every detail without anyone even knowing. This was the second time we used Shannon and will certainly use her again!

Our family rented the Varsity Park Field House for a celebration of life for a family member. The…read morefacility and the staff were amazing! The location is private and in a beautiful setting with plenty of parking and simple access. It is very comfortable and had all the amenities we wanted. It is beautifully thought out , very comfortable, and designed and equipped with everything from a wet bar area that worked great for serving to a full kitchen. The AV set up allowed us to play several videos on three giant TV screens and the overhead music system let us connect thru Bluetooth to play some selected music. The outside area included a patio with tables and chairs and a green space. Alexis was wonderful to work with and made sure we had everything we needed for a successful event.

Talk to them about your timing and how you would need to use the space. I usually used an open space in the front and then reserved a huddle room when I wanted or needed more privacy.

This was the perfect space to host an early-December "done with chemo" celebration for friends and…read morefamily! Good price, flexible space, and prime location. I expect that the conference rooms would be solid options to host meetings, if you work remotely or simply want a change in venue from your office, but the main atrium/front room provides a welcoming environment for a mix-and-mingle cocktail reception. We were able to arrange some tables for food, a self-serve bar, photo "booth" area, and both low chairs and high top tables for a variety of ways to connect. The double front doors provided an easy entry, with plenty of natural light, and we appreciated the private kitchenette area and separate individual bathrooms. Plenty of working spaces in the back of the building and convenient to post-party drinks and dining options. It was nice having a gas station around the corner for extra ice and the co-op next door to get extra drinks. Brad was great with getting us set on our own with the space. I highly recommend considering the Roanoke CoLab for your next small event or also to use during the working hours.
