We are off this weekend to film the wedding of Jessica and Jason at Blissful Meadows Country Club in Uxbridge this weekend. Congratulations to you both!
I'm hoping mother nature cooperates and stops raining for at least a few hours so that we can sneak in the ceremony outdoors. If not, I'm sure that the staff at Blissful will set up for a beautiful indoor ceremony anyway - it's good luck for it to rain on your wedding day, isn't it?
Tonight will be the rehearsal, which I will be filming, and then tomorrow we will be shooting their wedding and reception. I like shooting the rehearsal's for a few reasons, for one - it allows me to meet the family and bridal party before the big day. They all get a chance to be around the camera and get comfortable with both the camera and myself. Second, the rehearsal is usually a lot more causal for the people involved (well maybe the Bride and Groom are a little stressed, but the family and bridal party are usually pretty candid and calm!), and that allows me to capture some good candid moments of the bridal party and family. And third, the rehearsal allows us to find the best angles to shoot and allows us to experiment and try things out before the big day occurs.
We've caught some great moments at a few of the rehearsal nights in the past, including some heartfelt toasts from the father's of the bride and groom, and also some great clips of friends hanging out at a BBQ that followed the rehearsal. If your interested in having us attend your rehearsal night, check out our A La Carte' options on our Wedding Packages page at http://www.lakotadenproductions.com/WeddingPackages.html
As for the wedding itself, even if it does rain, I'm sure it will be beautiful. This will be our first time shooting at Blissful Meadows - and we hear great reviews about it! (The food is suppose to be fantastic!)
We'll be posting a recap of the wedding, as well as some photos soon!

Congratulations to Kim and Kevin!
Congratulations to the new Mr and Mrs. Stewart!
The wedding was wonderful - the bride was stunning, the ceremony was both emotional and humorous as the Reverend had some great quotes (I guess the Bride really likes salad - I'm still not really sure what that's all about!) the weather held out until after everyone was inside at the reception and dancing!
Got tons of great footage of the bride, groom, and wedding party tearing it up on the dance floor. Hats off to Stephan from Party Zone Entertainment for keeping the dance floor hopping and making my job that much easier!
Easily, the most emotional part of the day was when the bride and groom read personal messages to each other that detailed their lives up to that movement. I'm so glad that I was able to capture that on video for them, because that's one thing that the photos won't show or let them relive. The photos only will show them reading those words, while the completed video will let them hear them and let them relive that moment. What better way to show your children and grandchildren how crazy you were for each other than to let them hear those same words that you spoke on your wedding day.
As for the funnest moments, well - they had to occur on the dance floor. The DJ brought with him numerous props and hats for the guests to wear. I was able to capture some great shots of some guests playing air guitar and wearing light up glasses and funky hats. I love it when the guests play to the camera!

Off to shoot the Fontaine/Stewart Wedding!
First off Congratulations to Kim and Kevin, whom in a few short hours will be happily married and sharing their first dance. And I will be there to film it all. . . .
Off to a wedding today in Agawam - looking forward to it. The rain has finally stopped, so the happy couple has a great day for the ceremony, photos, and video!
Just double checking all my notes prior the the ceremony now, I've already talked to a few of the other vendors, so I am looking forward to a great time working on Kim and Kevin's big day!
