Sarah and Joel - Figueroa Mountain Farmhouse
This was an incredibly fantastic wedding near Los Olivos. The location was in the mountains above the Santa Ynez Valley wine country. It's a totally private venue, with 150 acres of land surrounding the farmhouse and guest cabins. Sarah, Joel and their Bridal Party spent the weekend there preparing for the wedding.
They had told us it would be a bit hard to find, and after driving for a few miles on a one-lane dirt road, high in the mountains, I thought we were lost for sure! That's how secluded it is!! We had so much fun filming the entire day's events. The ceremony site was off in the grass surrounded by stunning vistas all around. They had hay bales placed for guests to sit on. I loved how one of the first things Sarah said when we arrived was that earlier that morning, when she looked out the window, there were deer eating her ceremony chairs!
After filming everyone getting ready, we got some awesome shots of the bridal party all around the site. The lighting was amazing. And after a really sweet ceremony, guests moved to the cocktail area and played horseshoe and lawn bowling. Just as Sarah and Joel began their first dance, a full moon was rising over the crest of the mountains in the background! Again, just one of the amazing moments we captured.
Thank you Sarah and Joel for including us as a part of your incredible day! We had a BLAST!!
Here's a highlight montage from their day.

Diane and Ben - The Beverly Hills Hotel
As Diane and Ben said..."It was the wedding of our dreams"!
We had filmed the incredibly beautiful wedding of Diane's sister Dana a few years ago (her highlight clip can be found under the listings for "Montage Resort"), and I remember thinking how in the world could Diane's wedding be as beautiful as her sister's. Well...it WAS just as beautiful, and in a totally unique way!
Some of my favorite moments of the day:
When they both saw each other for the first time...tears all around. The reaction of the guests when Diane and her father walked down the aisle...she looked so beautiful. The wonderful toasts by Dana and their father Ken...more tears all around! And the awesome performance by the USC band.
The details of the ballroom were stunning. The room was draped and included gorgeous florals, lighting, table settings, a sweets table...and check out the shots of their cake! The wedding cake was designed to look like Diane's dress, and the groom's cake looked like a Laker's basketball!
Here is a short highlight montage of their day.

Thoa and Glenn - St Regis Club 19
Here's another clip from a wedding at St. Regis which took place on the lawn near Club 19. A good friend of the couple performed the ceremony...it was really moving. Then down to the beach for some fun shots, and back to the Club for the rest of the evening's events.

Melissa and Ben - St. Regis Botanical Garden
This was a destination wedding for Melissa and Ben who live in Chicago, most of the guests were from out of state as well. We spent the night before their wedding filming their rehearsal dinner, which included tons of amazing toasts and stories. The wedding took place at the Botanical Garden, which is a really beautiful and intimate setting. The reception was held at Club 19 with dinner outside on the patio, and then a night of dancing inside. What an amazing weekend!

Bat Mitzvah Party
Here's a highlight film from Mara's INCREDIBLE party at The Grove. It was a total "Hollywood Theme"...perfect for The Grove, and included a live feed of the entire event on huge screens throughout the venue.
There was one surprise that night that Mara had no idea was coming. As she loves to sing (and wants to be on American Idol) she gave a performance for all the guests. Little did she know that her parents had arranged for her favorite band to make a surprise appearance. When her performance was over, the huge curtain behind her went up revealing the band behind her...can you imagine!! Check-out the look on her face when THAT happened!
Bat Mitzvah Photo Montage
Here's another sample of our cool 3D photo montages! Every montage is based on a particular theme related to the client's interests. This montage was created for Mara who LOVES American Idol! Again, your guests will LOVE watching the production at the party, and it becomes a family keepsake.

Deepti and Mohan - St. Regis Monarch Beach
Here's a highlight film from Deepti and Mohan's reception that was held the day after their ceremony.
There were so many wonderful moments throughout the night! I really loved their grand entrance where they danced and skipped through the entire ballroom greeting their guests. All of the speeches and toasts were so special, there were amazing performances and lots of fun dancing...beautiful decor and lighting...simply FANTASTIC!
