"Ahh we just watched it and absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!!! It is just so perfect!!! Can’t stop watching!!! Thank you so much!!!"

It’s been the year of siblings around here and that is such a huge compliment. We love getting to know families and being a part of several celebrations is always a fun thing!

Oh and by the way, don’t worry too much about a video camera being a part of your wedding. People love us! See the thumbnail below - dancing to the camera. Yeah, we still got it.

"It is absolutely perfect!!! Thank you SO much! We have loved reliving such a beautiful day! 😊"  - bride Sarah

Sarah and her mom put together a solid wedding team and that truly makes a difference. Invision Events executed the wedding perfectly! From the touching ceremony through the fun wedding reception, it really was a beautiful day!

We first met this family years ago when Lauren Pettus Harrell married her sweetheart, Trey. It was a fun, over-the-top wedding with every single resident of Montgomery in attendance.

When little sister, Jordan Pettus Schroeder got engaged to Chad, we were excited to get the call from mom, Teresa. She loves her girls so much! Naturally the town would be talking about Jordan's wedding as well. And rightfully so. Edelweiss Design House created such an elegant and gorgeous event at Wynlakes Golf & Country Club. Watch the video so you can fall in love too!

This couple.  These families.  They were just great!  Not only was everyone relaxed for the wedding weekend to be here, but you could also feel the excitement in the air! Although the bride and groom both grew up in California, fate brought them both to Alabama for school.  I guess you could say that the rest is history!

Ashley and Ernest wanted a beautiful and fun wedding that incorporated their two children.  They wanted their friends and family to have a good time!  And as you can tell from the film below, they accomplished their goals.  Rosewood Hall has never looked more stunning either!  Watch and enjoy!

Anytime we get to work with our friend, Rachael Grammer of Two Hearts Weddings & Events, we LOVE it!  There is no other planner that comes so prepared for ANYTHING to happen on a wedding day like Rachael.  I mean, she even has extra Snicker Bars for the vendors in case you get so hungry, you are hangry!  She takes care of everything, allowing you to do your job that you were hired for.    

Meet Calah.  She's gorgeous, both inside and out.  Her family is pretty awesome too. (Stay tuned for her sister's wedding film to be released in the new year.)  I just love the emotion on Matt's face when she was walking down the aisle.  It's such a beautiful thing. 

"It's perfect!!! Absolutely perfect. I couldn't even imagine anything more perfect! You guys are amazing, I love it so much!!! By the way, thanks for making me cry at work (it's a good cry though). Thank you so much for capturing my day so beautifully!" - Bride Calah

As Catherine and Matt's wedding planner stated, their wedding was "It was a beautiful Great Gatsby meets southern charm meets downtown Birmingham vibe." The wedding was covered with beautiful draping and flowers. It was stunning!

Being the wedding industry, we have to remember that not everyone lives and breathes weddings and events like we do.  Sometimes we have moms of the brides that haven't planned a wedding in over 20 years.  

A couple of months ago, I was chatting with a MOB that had called about using us for their wedding videography. The bride was getting married in May of this year.  After telling the mom that we were not available, she made a comment that I had not heard before.  She said, "I guess there is no such thing as a June bride anymore." Although I was raised in the South, I don't know a lot of the typical Southern phrases.  So I consulted Google.  

According to folklore, "The goddess Juno was the protector of women in all aspects of life, but especially in marriage and childbearing, so a wedding in Juno's month was considered most auspicious."  Well there you go.  

Wedding season, here in the South, can range from March until October, and many brides choose the cooler months to have a Winter Wonderland-themed wedding.  We don't find that June is the only month that people want to get married.  Some months are so busy you forget to eat (almost!).  To get the pick of the vendors you want, plan on booking them a year out. It's not always necessary, but remember June is not the only month that brides want to get married.

Michelle and Donnie have a beautiful love story.  We were so thrilled to be a part of their Sunday afternoon wedding at The Sonnet House, in Leeds, Alabama.  

"Michelle chose soft, neutral colors for her wedding. For her bridesmaid’s dresses she handed out paint chips to her girls with the color palette she wanted. The result as each bridesmaid wearing a beautiful dress {in the proper color scheme} that was perfect for her body and most likely a dress they will wear again. The flowers were romantic, whimsical blooms and garlands perfect for a fall day." - The Sonnet House.  To read more, click here.
