We always love working with our good friend Lauren Kinsey, so when she recommend us for Bek and Drew’s wedding day were so excited to work with our good friend. But when we found out the wedding was in Alys Beach we flipped out. If you haven't been there, it’s one of the prettiest places in Florida, and we are always looking for an excuse to travel there! Things got even better when we met Bek and Drew. These two adorable lovebirds met while on a trip to Israel, and it was basically love at first sight at the JFK airport. The rest is history! Seriously, these two are beautiful inside and out and were such a joy to be around. Their friends and family were so much fun too and so kind. We’re so thankful Bek and Drew brought us down to Alys Beach to film their their unbelievably beautiful wedding day. Congratulations, friends!
Alee's 30th Birthday!
You only turn 30 once, so we decided to make Alee’s 30th birthday one to remember. Alee’s birthday is in late November which is typically a slower time for us, so we decided to hop on a plane and head to Europe. Since we both want to visit every inch of this earth it was so difficult to decide where to go! However, if there’s one thing our bodies were not made for it’s cold weather, so we wanted to find somewhere that wouldn’t be too cold in November. After some research we discovered Lisbon, Portugal and Barcelona, Spain were fairly warm during November, and after finding some cheap plane tickets we packed our bags and spent Alee’s birthday the best way we could imagine. Below is a Super 8 highlight film from the trip.
Hollie + James| Key West Elopement Film
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO HOLLIE AND JAMES!
Hollie and James were married last November in Key West, Florida, in a completely private elopement ceremony (Nathan signed their marriage license as a witness!). Out of all of the weddings we've filmed, this one may be our favorite. It was so intimate and special, and because it was an elopement, we got to know Hollie and James much better than we typically get to know our couples. We spent two full days with them. The first day we were able to interview them and hear all about their love story, and we filmed them walking all around Key West and having a blast. The second day was their amazingly sweet wedding. They love each other so much, and it was so heartwarming to see. I hope you enjoy their super sweet love story meets wedding film!
Kristina + Lee | Chicago Wedding Film
Kristina and Lee were such a sweet couple with the most amazing love story, spanning two continents and ten years. It was one of the weddings most filled with love and happiness from friends and family that we've ever experienced. And you can't get a better view than the one of the Chicago skyline from their reception!
Special thanks to our AMAZING friend Chad Husar for recommending us and letting us crash at his apartment during this wedding. He’s one of our best friends and one heck of a good photographer!
Featured on Style Me Pretty : Kerri + Clay | Texas Wedding Film
We were featured on Style Me Pretty today! Kerri and Clay were such a down to earth and relaxed couple, and we LOVED filming their sensational Texas Hill Country wedding at Camp Lucy right outside of Austin. We also had the opportunity to shoot some of their wedding day on Super 8 film, which you know is our favorite!
Check out their teaser and the post on Style Me Pretty!
Kathleen + Francesco: A Florida Wedding Film
Kathleen and Francesco were married in beautiful Sarasota, Florida, with a reception at the most amazing venue overlooking the water. They were such a sweet couple who met in Chicago, lived together in New York, and married in Sarasota, where Kathleen's family had vacationed for years. Kathleen's bridesmaid gave the most heartfelt toast at the reception that fully captures the love and happiness of this beautiful day:
"May your friendship bring curiosity, laughter, and joy to the most mundane of merry moments. May loyalty draw you close to one another when life presents challenges. And may your love for one another be written in your hearts and shape every day of the rest of your lives."
Punya + Ravi | An Orlando Indian Wedding
One of the awesome things about filming weddings is that we’re reminded every week that love transcends culture, traditions, and religions. It’s such a beautiful thing. Ever since we filmed our first Indian wedding we have absolutely fallen in love with them! While most weddings we film last for one day, Indian wedding celebrations last FOR DAYS!. It’s such a big party with family and friends traveling in from all over the world to show their love and support of the couple. So when Punya and Ravi reached out to us to film their Orlando Indian wedding we were ecstatic. We looked forward to filming their big weekend for months (and it’s not only because we would have an excuse to visit Disney World!). Punya and Ravi awed us with all of the thought and detail they put into their wedding planning. These two worked tirelessly to make sure the celebration was going to be one that their friends and family who travelled in from all over the world would never forget. Good news: it was an epic success.
Featured on Style Me Pretty! | Lauren + Raley
Lauren and Raley were the sweetest. They met in college and have been together for ten years! They were so happy on their wedding day, and they didn’t even mind a little rain, even with an outdoor ceremony. Lauren said the rain made her feel like she was in “Pride and Prejudice.” It was a small, intimate garden ceremony, followed by a beautiful candlelit dinner, where their family toasted them, and everyone laughed and cried. We couldn’t have been more honored to be there to capture all the love and laughter.
Their film was featured on Style Me Pretty today. Check out the post! http://www.stylemepretty.com/little-black-book-blog/2016/08/06/intimate-texas-garden-wedding-film/
Happy Anniversary to Paige + Thorben!
It's Paige and Thorben's first anniversary, and in honor of it, we wanted to share their New Orleans wedding film with you! Paige and Thorben met in Austin, Texas and moved to San Francisco when Thorben, a German citizen who moved to the United States for college, accepted a job in the tech industry. When they were thinking about places to get married, they considered destinations all over America, but they decided on New Orleans because of Paige's south Mississippi roots and love for New Orleans. The two were married at the Marigny Opera House, an almost 200 year old church which had been converted into a performing arts center in the Marigny neighborhood of downtown New Orleans, adjacent to the French Quarter. After a lot of Creole and German inspired food, the reception came to an end with a bang: a traditional New Orleans second line, in which a New Orleans jazz band led a parade of the wedding party and guests through the streets of downtown.
Caitlin + Cameron: A Houston Wedding Film
Caitlin and Cameron's Houston wedding was at a beautiful French inspired venue in Houston, Texas, Chateau Cocomar. They were such a sweet couple, and the wedding was absolutely gorgeous, from the wardrobes to the table settings. Everyone had such a fun time that nobody wanted to leave at the end of the night! We hope you enjoy their film!
