Timeless and elegant, that is how we would describe Madison and Warren’s wedding day. With an all-star team, lead by Becky’s Brides, we just knew the day would be perfect. And really how cool is it to get married at the Baseball Field? We are so fortunate that here in Birmingham we have so many awesome wedding venues!

Main Street Productions will become Cinepear in January 2016.

So today is December 19, 2015 and it is a pretty special day around here.  Our Director of Awesome, Chris Carr, is getting married to his long-time girlfriend, Amy.  We are so happy for them!  What does this have to do with Liz and Chris' wedding film?  Well even though I asked our Chris not to stay up all night finishing this film, he did.  He wanted Liz to have her wedding film before he took a few days off for his honeymoon.  And he blew it out of the park too!  It's incredible.  That is why we call him our Director of Awesome. 

There is just something about Liz.  As soon as you meet her, you see it, you feel it.  After many years of dating, she and (her) Chris tied the knot late summer on Samford University's campus, at Reid Chapel.  It's gorgeous!  For their wedding reception, they traveled to The Club and had a blast dancing with the band all night, fabulous fireworks, and the cutest interactive father/daughter dance ever!

"It’s a beginning and an ending, it’s glorious and sad, and it’s intimate and public.  In your lifetime there will be few milestones that will change the course of your future more than your wedding day. Main Street Productions understands and believes in the emotions of life. We bring these emotions to our art and look forward to presenting you a glimpse into your own past." - John Deaver, Main Street Productions

Sharing the wedding film is something that our brides really look forward to.  Sharing it at the day-after BBQ is really over the top AND a HUGE challenge for us!   Watch their EPIC "retro sexy wedding" film that includes so many beautiful details, designed by Christopher Confero with Mandy Majerik with HotHouse Design Studio and Alex (and Jill) with AG Lighting.   Thankfully we had Anita with AK Brides there to help pull it all together.  It is always a pleasure working with Jerrod Brown Studios (and David Boyd)!

New York City is intoxicating.  There really is no other word that I can use to describe it.  Traveling there for Eunice and Garrett's Jewish wedding with a pop-up ceremony in the middle of The Highline Park was one of the highlights of our summer.  We toured The Standard Hotel, Central Park, Chinatown, got lost and ended up in Brooklyn, and now we have the city in our blood.  LOVE it and can't wait to go back!

One week after the NYC wedding, the couple celebrated the bride's heritage in a Vietnamese wedding reception.  It was then that we were able to show a fabulous piece that John edited.  I love this photo from Kelli + Daniel Taylor Photography.  It was taken when the couple 1st saw their wedding video!

​Many thanks to Anita Kanellis of AK Brides, HotHouse Design Studio, McWane Center, Design Productions and Gia's.  A REALLY BIG thank you to DJ JJ of Fonix Entertainment out of Atlanta.  He went above and beyond to help us with some technical difficulties from the house sound system.  He was absolutely awesome!  

What do you think of the film?
