We were so honored to be a part of Alicia and Johny’s Mitten Building Wedding. Alicia and Johny hold a special place in our hearts. They, along with a group of their friends, have all entrusted our team into their circle and community. Alicia and Johny are the 4th couple within this circle of friends that we have invited us in to document their wedding with photos or video.

When we met with Alicia and Johny,  we asked so many questions to get to know them as we always love doing with our couples.  They told us about their relationship, their wedding and what was important to them about the big day.  We were immediately drawn to their vibe as a couple and a their vision of their wedding. When the officially invited us to document the wedding, we were thrilled and could not wait to celebrate with with them and see some of our friends at the wedding.

Our first impression upon arriving at The Mitten Building was that had travel back in time. We were immersed by a strong red brick building and the vintage wood floors and accesnts. This romantic building exceeded our expectations. The Mitten Building was built in 1890 as the Haight Citrus Packing House. Next, it became the Mitten Letter Factory from approx. 1940 – 1980. Needles to say, the building possessed a history to it and vintage character that is widely sought after with for modern day weddings.  The upstairs wedding venue is a sight to behold, with elegant wooden floors, deep cardinal brick walls all being gently lit making this ceremony fill with ardent.

We absolutely loved watching Alicia and Johny exchange vows, show off dance moves, and embrace each other on their wedding day. This was our last wedding of 2017 and we couldn’t have asked for a better way to end the year.

MONARCH BEACH RESORT INDIAN WEDDING VIDEO | CINDY + MADHAV

Cindy and Madhav’s Monarch Beach Resort Indian Wedding was one we won’t soon forget. For most couples, the wedding usually takes place on a single day. For Cindy and Madhav, the celebration was so grand that it took place over 2 full days and they essentially had 2 weddings!  On the first day, they celebrated in authentic traditional Indian Wedding culture at the Laguna Cliffs Marriott. Fully adorned in her Lehnga, Cindy embraced Madhav’s Indian culture and all of its wedding traditions. Madhav’s baraat was energetic as his friends and family danced with him up a royal pathway underneath the cover of a tree tunnel with spectacular view of the pacific ocean.  The Hindu wedding celebration took place atop a hillside lawn with gorgeous views of the  pacific ocean. Under the mandap, Cindy and Madhav made their seven rounds around the holy fire and legally became husband and wife.

The festivities then continued the next day as friends and family joined them again. This time guests watched Cindy and Madhav exchange personal vows during a western style wedding at the Monarch Beach Resort.  With a stunning white dress and classic tuxedo, Cindy and Madhav again amazed us with how gorgeous they looked. Their bridal party stood beside them as the couple y recited heartfelt promises to each other. All of this took place as the sun disappeared into the pacific ocean behind them.  We loved watching how these two blended both cultures together and gave their friends and family and amazing weekend of celebration with such elegance and grace. Congratulations to Cindy and Madhav!

Angelica and Nic’s Old Ranch Country Club Wedding Video was another great wedding we were fortunate to be a part of.

The weather was warm and gorgeous. The cattails that lined the manicured lawns swayed back and forth as the perfect breeze swept through them The couple had every guest teary eyed with their vows and had and shared so much love and laughter with each other that it was contagious. That positive energy let everyone around them know that this was going to be a gorgeous and fabulous wedding. Our favorite part of the day was when 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.

We have been holding onto Daniela+ Jeremy’s Union Station DC Wedding Video for some time and so glad we finally are able to share. This wedding was an one of the most incredible events for our team in 2017. With lots of publicity surrounding magazine publication, we had to hold onto it and keep it quiet until now. Since the wedding was featured in the Washingtonian Magazine wedding section, the cat is out of the bag and we are elated to finally share their feature film with you all. Check out some of the photos from the magazine feature below.

Daniela and Jeremy are the kind of people who are effortlessly gorgeous and chic.   The wedding was rich in tradition, love and elegance.  Their venue which has  a reputation for holding memorable events in a dramatic fashion, was opened in 1908 and has witnessed some of the greatest events in our nation’s twentieth century history. Jeremy and Daniela’s wedding was another one of those great events! This was the perfect location for these two young professionals to exchange vows, unite families and begin their adventure together.

We were extremely honored to have been a part of this wedding and to have worked with such an amazing team of people. Thank you Daniela and Jeremy and we hope you all enjoy this Union Station DC Wedding Video!
