Tag: Wedding Film

Have you ever heard of a surprise wedding?  That is what Jessie asked me when I first spoke with her on the phone.  Ideas of filming a couple eloping or one surprising another with a wedding were quickly laid by the wayside, when Jessie explained to me that while she and Jay knew when they were getting married, no one else did.  Everything was planned perfectly, Jessie and Jay had all their friends and family believing they were having a party before just the two of them left for the Caribbean to get married.  Secretly though, they planned to have a friend marry them at the party!

And believe me, this was a cool party!  They converted a VFW Post into a wedding venue, complete with flowers, colors, and a tank.  Well technically, the tank was already at the VFW, but it was still cool!  Everyone was surprised, most of all Jessie’s mom when she saw her in her dress for the first time.  The party was great fun, and even better when Jay walked in with his suit, and Jessie with her dress to say their vows.  I haven’t ever partied at wedding in a VFW before, but I hope this isn’t the last time.

Stacey and Patrick are one of those couples that make creating a beautiful wedding film easy.  They both were incredibly classy but with a twinge of Texas country which really shines through in this highlight film.  Last June, they were married in the Houston Museum District at La Colombe D’or, a boutique hotel with a ballroom that dates back to the 17th century.  The ballroom was actually constructed in France 300 years ago and then, many years later, transported in sections to the location that it is in today.  Like I said, classy.

One of the most charming things I found out about Stacey and Patrick was their last names, Greene and Beene.  Unfortunately, Stacey’s was Beene and Patrick’s is Greene so she will end up being Stacey Beene Greene.  So close to humor but not quite there!

I have a list of fun places I would like to travel to when filming a wedding.  One that requires no traveling at all is Kyle Field in College Station.  I’m not saying that the couple actually needs to get married on the 50 yard line, but taking photos there would be cool.  Last June my wish came true and I was able to film Ashley & Boone’s wedding.  The emails started like most of them, with her telling me they would be married at a church, but then things got crazy when she told me the reception would be at the Kyle Field Zone Club.  And they would be taking pictures on the field, and the groom’s cake was a replica football field, and the garter would be wrapped around a football when he threw it.  Okay so I didn’t actually know about the garter, but I really shouldn’t have been surprised.

Slightly more seriously, I hope this wedding conveyed how much Ashley and Boone were waiting for this day.  As the minister said, they were together for a long time, and had both grown a lot.  They realized that together they were better people, and they wanted it to last forever.

Cross Kyle Field off my bucket list (but seriously, if you’re getting married and having part of your wedding there I will gladly film it again), now all that is left is Hawaii, New Zealand, a mountaintop, Antarctica, and Germany to name a few locations.

What’s the best way to follow-up an important life milestone like graduating? Of course it’s moving on to the next big milestone and marrying the person you love the most. This is exactly what I witnessed when I filmed Stephanie and Ryan’s wedding in May of 2012.  I originally met Stephanie at Sara and Jason’s wedding last year.  It was great to head back out to Beaumont and film another wedding.  They even got ready at the same salon.

As I was filming the most important day of their lives, two things stuck out to me that the pastor said about their wedding day. The first thing was that he quoted Romans 12:15 when he said, “Rejoice with those who rejoice.” – this wedding embodied that.  An excited couple experiencing a joining together with their close friends and family.  Second, he said that this was their day and it truly was. The spotlight was on them and they were shining. They sparkled more than the fireworks that their guests used to send them off!

Big thanks to Taylor Stanley and Ashley Stineman for helping me film this wedding!

Cameron and Megan made filming their wedding almost too easy.  Between Cam’s awesome antics every time the camera was on him, and Megan looking beautiful, this wedding film basically edited itself.  Cameron was my Impact co-chair way back in 2009 when I was just getting my first DSLR.  He possesses the rare talent of being able to make speeches about any topic and make you fired up about it.  I met his wife Megan outside of Sam’s Club one day and felt pretty sure they were a perfect match.  When he proposed, I hoped that he would call me about filming his wedding.  Sure enough, he did, and I’m happy to say that Megan and Cameron are one of the most animated and happy couples I have ever met.  I loved filming this video and showing their happiness; Cameron’s countdown made it really fun too.
