OLD RANCH COUNTRY CLUB WEDDING VIDEO | PEARL + SHANE
We are so thrilled to be featuring Pearl and Shane’s Old Ranch Country Club Wedding Video on the blog. Old Ranch is one of our favorite venues with gorgeous architecture, rolling green fairways, and the mountains in the distance. It was a gorgeous site on a gorgeous day for this gorgeous couple to get married.
Pearl and Shane met a few years ago doing something they both loved- working out and staying fit. They hit it off right away and Shane knew he wanted to see Pearl again outside of the gym. After that initial meeting and some modern day phone communication back and forth, they went on a date and the rest is history.
On their wedding day, we could feel an overwhelming level of excitement from Shane, Pearl and everyone around them. That positive energy let everyone around them know that this was going to be a gorgeous and fabulous wedding. That excitement carried over to our team and into their wedding film. They were exchanged beautiful vows underneath the gorgeous pergola crown made of hand crafted wrought iron. After the ceremony, we walked around the manicured lawns that lean into the Seal Beach sky and had an amazing sunset to add the perfect warmth to their wedding film. Their reception took place in the ballroom with floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors that gave view to the majestic views of lush greens, sparkling fountains, distant mountains creating the perfect backdrop for this bride and groom.
Congratulations and Thank you to Pearl and Shane. Enjoy!

OLD TOWN ALEXANDRIA WEDDING VIDEO | MAGGIE & MATT
Maggie and Matt’s Old Town Alexandria Wedding Video is a perfect example of classic elegance. Their affection with one another is so natural and genuine. These two share a beautiful love that is full of laughter, adventure, and friendship and being asked to document that was seriously so much fun. We were amazed at how cool and collected Maggie and Matt were on their wedding day–it was such a joy to film this couple and spend the day with their families and friends!
This wedding had everything we wanted! Love and laughter, funky dance moves and the vintage charm of the city of Alexandria. Around every corner was a picturesque cobblestone streetscape, a surprising architectural detail, or a classic-style pub, all reminiscent of European cities. This was the perfect setting to make Maggie and Matt feel like a King and Queen as they walked down cobblestones sidewalks and historic Victorian homes layered with red brick. It doesn’t hurt that Alexandria was also named the #1 most romantic city in the U.S. in 2016 as well!
We met up with Matt and Maggie that morning at The Alexandrian Hotel as they got ready for their wedding day. Matt saw Maggie for the first time as she walked down the aisle, hand in hand with her father, at St. Mary’s Catholic Church. Adding to charm of this wedding was the fact that St Mary’s happens to be the oldest Catholic church in state of Virginia. After they exchanged vows and shared their first kiss as husband and wife, family and friends helped them celebrate with a wild dance party at the Virtue Feed and Grain which was once a feed house in the 1800’s.
Matt and Maggie, we were so honored to have been invited into your wedding day to help document such an important milestone. Everything about your wedding and the city of Alexandria gave us the warm fuzzies. Congrats to the both of you and thank you for having us.

BEL-AIR BAY CLUB WEDDING VIDEO | CHERISE & MICHAEL
BEL-AIR BAY CLUB WEDDING VIDEO
It’s such an honor to have Cherise and Michael’s Bel-Air Bay Club Wedding Video on our blog. Cherise and Michael were married at the Bel-Air Bay Club, an exclusive Los Angeles Wedding Venue with a beautiful ocean view and private estate on the bluffs overlooking Los Angeles bay. With the gorgeous views of the bay, this was the perfect setting for their wedding.
This was an amazing, remarkable, incredible moment in Michael and Cherise’s lives. The day was filled with lots of love, excitement and the sweet feeling of anticipation. After they finally saw each for the first time that day, Michael told us, “Standing there, waiting for Cherise for our First Look made my heart beat and my stomach churn with butterflies like it hasn’t in quite some time,” he said. “And seeing how absolutely beautiful my bride looked made me even more excited to get married.” How sweet is that?!?!
During their Wedding Ceremony, Cherise and Michael stood under a gorgeous decorated traditional Jewish Chuppah. They exchanged very emotional vows to each other in front of their friends and family, revealing just how deep their love is for one another. We absolutely loved the element that their personal vows added to the film. As the setting sun fell behind them, the cool ocean breeze brought them closer to one another. As they embraced in front of their family friends, keeping each other warm, they received their final blessings from The Rabbi Ruben and Pastor Kenny. And of course no Jewish wedding would be complete with out the breaking of the glass and celebratory “Mazel Tov!”
The wedding celebration continued and our couple amazed their guests with a stunning choreographed first dance leaving everyone in awe. Their closest friends and bridal party contributed to the uniqueness of the wedding by putting a twist on the toasts and speeches. Instead of the expected, they surprised Michale and Cherise with special performances, including hand written music and lyrics and a personal sonnet bringing tears to Cherise’s eyes.
Congratulations to Cherise and Michael! It was an honor to witness your first day as husband and wife!

BLACK GOLD GOLF CLUB WEDDING VIDEO | CARRIE & SHAWN
We are excited to feature Carrie and Shawn’s Black Gold Golf Club Wedding Video. On a beautiful October Day, Carrie and Shawn’s Wedding Ceremony took place at St. Marten De Porres in Yorba Linda, CA. Rays of sunlight gleamed through the stained glass windows of the Church as Carrie and Shawn stood on the altar and exchanged their Wedding Vows. Before the ceremony, they shared a unique twist on a “First Look” and did just a “First Touch” instead. While standing with their backs to each other and fighting the temptation to peek, they stood hand and hand and prayed for each other and for their marriage.
After the wedding ceremony, Carrie and Shawn’s Reception was held at the Black Gold Golf Club Wedding Venue in Yorba Linda, CA. The majestic natural surroundings, the sparkling blue lake, the rolling green fairways and the twinkling city lights set an outdoor stage for Carrie and Shawn’s fairy tale wedding.
Inside the Black Gold Clubhouse, DJ James Loram of Last Dance Entertainment introduced the Wedding Party during the Grand Entrance. In pairs, Bridesmaids and Groomsmen danced their way under the vaulted ceilings and wall to wall bay windows. A wrap around terrace encircled the Clubhouse, where the Wedding guests could enjoy the cool October evening air.
It was only appropriate to end such a magical Wedding Day with a Sparkler Exit, as featured in the end of Carrie and Shawn’s Wedding Film.

VIBIANA WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHER | DEBORAH & CALVIN
NESTLED BETWEEN SKYSCRAPERS IN THE HEART OF HISTORICAL DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES, VIBIANA WAS ONCE THE CITY’S FIRST ARCHDIOCESE CATHOLIC CATHEDRAL. NOW IT HAS BEEN BEAUTIFULLY TRANSFORMED INTO A STUNNING WEDDING VENUE, AND THANKS TO A GOOD AFFAIR, LUXURY WEDDING PLANNERS IN ORANGE COUNTY, THE SETTING TO DEBORAH AND CALVIN’S DREAM WEDDING.
High School sweethearts, Deborah and Calvin’s love for one another took tenacity, like a rose growing from a crack in concrete. How fitting that Bloom Box Designs showered their Wedding Ceremony with Champagne, Pink and Gold rose pedals in the middle of a concrete jungle. Though they waited 10 years to get married, they couldn’t wait until they walked down the rose covered aisle to each other for the first time on their Wedding Day. So instead, they shared an intimate moment together during their First Look.
Inside Vibiana’s Main Hall, roses stretched like vines from the floor to the cathedral ceilings. A five-layer cake stood tall like its His and Her edible Giraffes made of frosting. Giant balloons reached up high towards the sky. Deborah and Calvin’s heads were surely in the clouds during their Dream Wedding.
“Everybody here today is a better person because we have you two in our lives,” admits the Best Man during his toast. “You two are the glue that binds so many people together.”
Deborah and Calvin’s Wedding brought family and friends, young and old, together for one luxurious night full of love. And our Wedding Videographers from One Story agree, because Deborah and Calvin and their Wedding Video are now in our lives and on our resume, we are not only better people, but have better Wedding Videography now too!
Now please enjoy Deborah and Calvin’s Los Angeles Wedding Film!

VILLA DE AMORE WEDDING VIDEO | BREANA & CHRIS
“VILLA DE AMORE IS INTIMATE, NATURAL, ROMANTIC AND FULL OF DETAILS AROUND EVERY CORNER. THE VINEYARDS, GARDENS, CHANDELIERS, AND MEDITERRANEAN ARCHITECTURE WERE THE PERFECT BACKDROP FOR BREANA AND CHRIS’S WINE COUNTRY WEDDING.”
Breana and Chris’s spectacular Villa de Amore Wedding Video took place during a beautiful December day in Temecula, CA. Breana and Chris chose the perfect venue to celebrate with family and friends. Villa de Amore is an intimate, natural, romantic and full of details around every corner. The vineyards, gardens, chandeliers, and Mediterranean architecture were the perfect backdrop for this vineyard wedding.
When One Story Wedding Videographers arrived, we found the Wedding Venue perched on a hilltop surrounded by the vineyards and rolling hills of Temecula Wine Country. We immediately took our drone into the air to capture the beauty of the Aerial Wedding Videography around the Villa De Amore. From there, things only got better as we entered inside the venue. The Tiffany’s themed bridal suite, gorgeous ball room and elegant ceremony site had us in awe. That was until we saw Breana.
When Breana arrived, everyone stopped and stared. How could they not?!? She looked elegant, timeless and drop dead gorgeous. When Chris saw her for the first time as she walked down the aisle, his eyes opened wide and you could see him take in a deep breath. He was completely mesmerized by his bride.
The wedding ceremony site at Villa De Amore was gorgeous. Completely surrounded by tall trees and that gorgeous white architecture, their guests watched them exchange vows lead by a beautiful blessing from the officiant. After the ceremony, we joined them and their bridal party out in the vineyards for their wedding portraits along side Leah Marie Photography. We finished off the night watching them share their first dance as husband and wife, along with toasts and some pretty funny speeches.
This was truly a gorgeous wedding and one that we are so fortunate to have been a part of. Chris and Breana have been amazing to work with from when we first met them for an engagement session, all the way through the end of the wedding day. Elegance definitely met up with vineyard romance and called itself For Chris and Breana’s vineyard wedding at the Villa De Amore. Not only were the couple, details and decor beautiful but so were all the people on the inside and out. We had the best time with them throughout the entire day.
