What an amazing way to wrap up our 2011 wedding season! Angela and Tommy’s epic wedding took place on the lush, white sands of Riviera Maya, Mexico with the clear blue ocean as a backdrop. When we first arrived and met up with them, I knew instantly this was going to not only be visually stunning, but equally fun as well. Their high energy and love for life was certainly contagious with their closest friends and family members who joined in the fun. To say we enjoyed working with them would be the understatement of the year. This was an incredible event and I’m honored to have been a part of it!

You really couldn’t ask for a better day. The weather was unseasonably amazing, the couple was incredibly fun, and their design was stunning! All of these elements came together for Erin and John as they celebrated with their closest friends and family in downtown Cincinnati. We had a blast with them as we created our last Same Day Edit of the year and according to Erin, it was our best yet. It was a surprise to their guests who enjoyed it and I wanted to share with you. Enjoy!

This is a wedding that had it all- a beautiful couple, an awesome venue, and an amazing team. Rachael and Kyle’s ceremony and reception was held at the stunning Green Acres Arts Center, a location like no other. Early and the day Rachael, her mom and her bridesmaids were treated to massages as they prepared for the day, while Kyle and the guys golfed at a nearby country club before they saw each other in front of this majestic venue. After the ceremony, the celebration continued as their guests danced on the packed floor. Rachael and Kyle wanted to surprise their guests with this Same Day Edit, which premiered at their reception after dinner.

Sonia and Steven’s gorgeous Chicago wedding started at St. James before the celebration reached its peak at Exmoor Country Club. Stunning would be an understatement, this place is rich in design and history to begin with before being transformed for their wedding. We had a blast with them, their friends and families as we created their Same Day Edit which premiered at their wedding reception.

Nikki and Brian had a stunning wedding in downtown Chicago at the W Hotel. First up was a very intimate ceremony where they shared their personal vows and Brian being quite the poet, turned his vows into a poem. After the candle-lit ceremony, the party started in the ballroom where their friends and family danced the night away in a spectacular celebration. Enjoy their Same Day Edit, which premiered at their wedding reception.

Sure the weather didn’t get the memo, even dropping a few inches of hail the night before in a wicked storm, but the clouds parted and the storm calmed, making for a great wedding day. Early at the salon, the energy was contagious and it carried throughout the entire day. After the ceremony the party really started in an incredible multi-tent reception. It was inspiring to watch everyone complete a specific task to make this unbelievable event come to life and when Lesley and Matt entered for their introductions, the guests were as thunderous as the the storms the night before. It was as if everyone simultaneously took a shot of espresso, the tents were buzzing with a radiant energy and it continued through every event. It was an incredibly personal event down to Lesley’s brother writing and performing the song for her first dance with Matt. They wanted to surprise their guests with a Same Day Edit which premiered during dinner, I hope you enjoy it as much as they did!

It doesn’t get much better than Betsy and Will’s party, um…I mean wedding. From the start of our relationship, I knew this was going to be a fun one but I think I might have underestimated that a little. The preparations in the morning were a great indicator of how the rest of the day would go and IT WAS A BLAST! Josh and I had so much fun working with Betsy, Will, their families and friends, at times it was hard to believe we were actually working. Please enjoy their Same Day Edit, which premiered at their wedding reception!

Sony and Irf’s wedding was spectacular in every way. From the location to the design, coordination, entertainment, everything! The Newport Aquarium proved to be the perfect location especially with Sony’s love for aquatic wildlife and it was nothing short of stunning. A tented and very personal ceremony outside with the Ohio River flowing beside was the precursor to an very fun evening inside the aquarium. Sony and Irf even scheduled time for their guests, many from out of town, to explore the aquarium on their own. This was definitely one of the most beautiful weddings we’ve filmed and we’re very honored to have been a part of it. Please enjoy their Coming Attraction.
