Coastal Wedding Films

I apologize for skipping a week on my blog.  Things have been really busy and I am glad.

Today I have a video that will make anyone cry and then want to get married in Savannah, Georgia.  Its a love story/Short Film of a cute little couple from Lafayette, Indiana.  If you go back to my last post, its the same couple in the Ceremony Highlight at the Bethesda Chapel in Savannah, Georgia.

Ryan and Ashtyn’s Love Story in Savannah, Georgia from Brent Nelsen on Vimeo.

Anyway, I had a fun day shooting with this shy couple and actually got them to open up a bit.  I think they had a lot fun too, I know I did.  My Goal is to produce more of these videos because in addition to the ceremony and reception this is a video that will remind the couple of those special little details of when, how, why they met, that usually just fades away.  Also this is a great video that can be shown at a wedding reception as an intro to dinner or dancing.  You see this video will also allow your guests to know a little more about your spouse and its a great chance for you to be a movie star in front of all your family and friends.

This couple actually went back home to Lafayette, Indiana and had a huge reception for their close family and friends who could not make the Savannah, Georgia wedding and showed this video.  Ashtyn and Ryan were stars for the evening.

I almost forgot, we also went back downtown Savannah, that night, on river street expecting to see fireworks.  Well Savannah thought it was too cold and decided not to shoot them off.  Well I gave them their own special display of fireworks.

So check out the video above.  If you would like to see a higher quality version of the Savannah, Georgia Love Story click here.

Well, do you remember my post, a few weeks back, of Lissa’s Bridal Prep video on Saint Simons Island, Georgia actually on Sea Island?  Anyway I mentioned I would be posting additional video regarding this wedding.

What I have today is a reception highlight that I edited that tells the wonderful story of Lissa and Chris’s reception.  This video really sets the tone of the reception and by this video alone anyone can clearly see how exciting this reception was.

The band they had was phenomenal.  They had Bobby and the Aristocats from Atlanta, Georgia.  The way they interacted with the guests and Chris and Lissa.   They actually got Grandma on stage.  That was and incredible moment.   For that one moment alone was worth having video.

Let me set the stage for you.  The band is about to break and they notice grandma having a wonderful time so Bobby invites her on stage and continues the song, eloquently adding his own lyrics to meet the mood and the action on stage,  making grandma feel, for that moment, like she was the star.  Can you imagine missing a moment like that, not having that on video?

OK let me quit the preaching and mention this wedding was a lot of fun to document and their family and friends were all so wonderful.  I have a few more weddings booked on Saint Simons Island, Georgia for 2009 and I can’t wait.  Coastal Wedding Films is located in Bluffton, South Carolina and we shoot a lot of Hilton Head Wedding Videos but we love to travel and Saint Simons Island, Georgia is a favorite now.
