Reason No. 587 to hire a wedding filmmaker

I talk to a lot of brides; sometimes they hire us, sometimes they don't.  And when they don't, that is ok.  I just want them to hire a some professional for their wedding.  Most of the time, brides will say something about wanting to have their wedding ceremony preserved for the future. I think that is easy for couples to comprehend that they want.  But often times, what they don't understand (until after the wedding) is all of the other moments that happen throughout the day. That is why we only provide full day coverage. 

For instance, at Ginna and Ty's wedding reception, the father of the bride gets on stage with the band, grabs the microphone and proceeds to serenade his bride of over 25 years.  So there you have it - the bride, the father of the bride and now the mom of the bride (who happens to be fighting cancer) are all on the stage.  Below you will just have a 15 sec glimpse of such a priceless moment captured on video.  So yes, we will film your ceremony, but also so much more.  Do you see those tears coming down mom's face?  #Photosdontdoitjustice

Ginna and Ty | Mountain Brook Country Club

Ginna is one of those people that you can see across the room and instantly know that you are going to love her.  She has a smile that can light up any darkness!  We were so honored when she and Ty chose Main Street to be a part of their wedding.  From the lovely flowers by Lillie Jane to dancing the night away with wedding band Az-Izz, the day was flawless.  That might have also had something to do with wedding planner, Anita Kanellis. Watch the video and see Ginna's dad serenading his bride on stage with the band.  I'm so glad that we were there to capture that PRICELESS moment.

Jordan and John | Bride's Family Home

After bonding over the love of golf, Jordan and John were married this summer at Sylacauga, Alabama at the First Baptist Church with the reception held at the bride's parents' house. Their wedding day was filled with emotion, excitement and cute golfing-related details!  Thanks to John and Amanda for doing such a great job on this video!

McKenna and Garry | Bryant Conference Center

After 3 1/2 years of dating, McKenna and Garry were married on a hot August day in Tuscaloosa, AL.  We absolutely love it when the entire bridal party is ready to have fun with the bride and groom.  It means lots of dancing and even more laughter!  - just what the bride wanted for her wedding day.

Lindsé and Andy | Gabrella Manor

Sometimes weddings (and wedding films) take on different meanings as life happens.  You start off planning the wedding of your dreams.  You pick fabulous vendors, the most beautiful venue and everything is perfect. Two weeks before the wedding, your groom's mom gets diagnosed with cancer. The wedding turns into a celebration of life to give the family the strength to battle what's ahead. It's a fun party!  Everyone has a great time!  You go skipping off on your honeymoon with your handsome groom and come back with a little "surprise." Just another reminder what is truly most important in this world.  Congratulations Lindsé and Andy - on the wedding, the marriage, the baby on the way and for wonderful test results that came back from Andy's mom! Enjoy your wedding film!

Megan and Levi | American Village

My favorite parts of this wedding day are the first looks!  Megan's first look with her dad will bring tears to your eyes!  Every girl needs a dad that loves her this much!!! When it was time to see Levi for the first time, you can hear how taken back he was on the way she looked. After gushing on how beautiful she looked, Levi commented,  "You make me look really ugly right now."  ha! Love it!!! Take a listen for yourself!

Calah and Matt | Douglas Manor

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

Surprise Proposal!

Many studies have shown that December is the most popular month to get engaged!  It seems to be true around here with our Main Street couples.  And it seems to be true with the love story of Ashley and Keenon.  Ashley's mom contacted us needing coverage for when Keenon popped the question at a local restaurant, Seasons 52.  Her enthusiasm was contagious! You could tell how proud she was of her daughter and future son-in-law.

From the production side, lots of elements lined up so that we could make this possible.  The family had reserved the chef's table at the restaurant.  After calling the restaurant, we learned that the chef's table is actually surrounded by black curtains (easy for hiding in), all of the servers wore solid black (another easy way to blend in) and there were to be flower arrangements on the table (perfect for hiding microphones).  We certainly did not want to spoil the surprise!  It's not a movie set, so you really never know what is going to happen.  You have to just be ready for anything in a proposal video!

For the couple, you will see in the video how Ashley had no clue what was about to happen.  Keenon did a really great job of acting nonchalant all day!  Congratulations you guys!  Now let the planning begin!
