It was wonderful getting to know Mark and Sivan’s families. Both of their parents and siblings/friends poured their hearts out with advice and wisdom during the toasts – advice everyone should adhere to! It all took place at the Westlake Village Inn. Photography by David Michael Photography. It was very intimate, very personal and beautiful. Please watch this incredible afternoon wedding, and feel their excitement and love! Mazel Tov!
Hey Everyone! A few months ago I had an amazing weekend with Rick + Maria in Malibu! The pre-ceremony was at The Malibu Beach Inn at Carbon Canyon, which as we found out has many top name stars who frequent there- especially on wedding days!
However; since we are wedding videographers and not paparazzi, it would be beneath us to disclose who we saw, but it was simply awesome! According to the “Star” we talked to she/he said that the Malibu Beach Inn is a way to get away from everyone constantly staring and gawking at you- yikes! They were also refreshed that we respected their privacy not to film them and thought that our bride looked beautiful! It’s a gorgeous location and we can see why the best of the best chill out there! But enough of that-
We then followed Rick and Maria to The Sunset Restaurant in Malibu. We had the pleasure of working with Occasions, which if you don’t already know is one of the best planning companies out there! The wedding ceremony was phenomenal and the party afterwards was simply fantastic! Rick’s Dad actually hired the same singer to play who had played at his wedding- so everything came full circle! Here are a few highlights of the amazing wedding day- enjoy and Congratulations to Rick + Maria once more!
Ted and Pavlina have an amazing story, with families and friends from all over the world. Even though they met and live in Manhattan, they had their wedding at St. Philip the Apostle Catholic Church in Pasadena and the reception at the La Cañada Flintridge Country Club. When you are watching the video, look for the cake. The bottom layer has playing cards and 7s for luck in gambling, the middle layer has skis for their love of snow sports and the top layer has the American and Bulgarian flags!
This is the wedding of the Year! Okay, I know- I am not trying to play favorites. We loved everyone’s wedding we filmed this year, of course! The reason this one has become my ultimate favorite, is simply because it is a stepping stone in our company’s development of a True Cinema Wedding.
It doesn’t matter that we filmed Alekhine’s brother’s wedding just a year ago and already knew these guys in and out. It doesn’t matter that Cecilia is beautiful and the venue, The Parker in Palm Springs is a retro blessing from heaven to shoot at. It doesn’t matter that we got to work with the life altering talents of Nate and Jaclyn Kaiser of The Image Is Found…although, all of those reasons help!
The reason I am so in love with this highlight we are showing you, is that we actually filmed it, with a 35mm film camera. It is what we’ve been looking for since we left film school and started our company… depth of field. It is why movies move us and video has limits. If you want your day documented it is true that the 35mm camera does little to provide this. But if you are like us- who are charged with an emotional desire to film what is beautiful and romantic in this world, this is an eye opener. I am always a sap for unrequited love, that’s really what moves our world. I had been looking for a camera to fall in love with, but I always had come up short. My unrequited love for the perfect camera was akin to Rose and Jack , or our star crossed lovers Romeo and Juliet. I was even in line with Werther and Lotte (from the Sorrows of Young Werther) to be forever denied my beauty. But good news has come on film’s foot. I have found my love in Alekhine and Cecilia, Kristin and Mark, Lisa and Ryan and all the weddings of tomorrow. We have always claimed to be the Wedding Cinema Company- which was pretty true, but now we are. This is what we were born to become.
Oh and by the way Congratulations once more Cecilia and Alekhine, we hope this film moves you as much as it moved us- and of course there is more to come!
This is a highlight reel from Kenny + Kathy’s wedding on June 13, 2009! They were a pleasure to to work with, but most of all we were impressed with their faith and love for each other and God. We always love to do weddings at a couple’s own church, it is really special!
Congratulations!
Again we were off to Palm Springs to film the wedding of Annie + Josh! We loved the laid back atmosphere, the guests with their excitement for the newlywed couple, and the pure beauty of a very amazing desert. The Korakia Pensione is a great place for a wedding or honeymoon!
These factors all made October 1st a great way to start the month off right! Annie was beautiful and Josh was looking really sexy – thanks for the great night!
This is the opening from a very loving couple. They had a Catholic ceremony, took lots of pictures and danced all night long at The Odyssey event center in Granada Hills!
Lee and Jeffrey were an awesome couple to work with. It was an inspiring wedding with a great emphasis on traditions, but also having just a really fun time. It is always great to see two people who really love each other tie the knot! La Venta Inn plays it up!
