Kayse and Clayton – Alliance Church of Christ in Justin and Wildhorse Golf Club

Clayton took seven years to decide whether or not Kayse was the woman he wanted to marry.  It took only seconds for the tears to come when he saw her standing at the door of the church.  Before the pastor could even get to the vows, the whole wedding party was sharing crumpled tissues and wide grins.  Kayse and Clayton were married at Alliance Church of Christ in Justin.

Pretty Kayse looked lovely in her white satin gown with intricately beaded bodice and full, pickup-accented skirt.  Her strapless sweetheart neckline highlighted her crystal jewelry and the jewels trimming the scalloped edges of her multi-layered veil.   Her bridesmaids wore long black dresses in a variety of styles.  The bouquets were red and white roses wrapped in white satin ribbon.

Kayse lassoed a handful when she married Justin.  Whether line dancing with his groomsmen before the ceremony or insisting on wearing oversized glasses for the formal portraits – Justin heads into life humor first.  Kayse’s not intimidated in the least by his antics and gives as good as she gets.  When icing from the wedding cake made its way to her face, she made sure a little ended up on his face, too.

The reception was at held at Wildhorse Country Club.  The couple’s beautiful white-on-white wedding cake featured square tiers stacked one upon the other with alternating patterns of decoration.  Some layers were polka-dotted with dabs of icing, while others were covered in filigree scrolls.  Nose-gays of live roses were sprinkled up the sides of the cake and then more roses sprang from the top layer.  The finishing touch was a slim silver heart.

Along with the beautiful cake, the couple provided a candy buffet for their guests.  Maybe the shared sugar high was the reason the dance floor was so busy.  There were spotlight dances, line dancing and even troupe performances.  The high energy dancers all wore high intensity smiles.  At the end of the evening, guests waved sparklers in the air as the effervescent couple escaped to their waiting limo.

When Kayse planned her wedding, she decided the only light she wanted for the ceremony was string lights and candles.  In theory it sounded romantic and wonderful.  In practice, the darkness made it almost impossible for guests to see the front of the church.  We convinced Kayse to let us add some light from our cameras.  It turned out to be a real win-win situation.  As you can see in the video, the mood for the ceremony is still romantic, however with our lights on the guests could see the ceremony, we had enough light to record and the minister could read his notes.

We’ve been videographing wedding for more than a decade, so we’re used to last minute changes.  In fact, almost every wedding requires flexibility, innovation and cooperation between the vendors.  Sometimes the bride never knows how close her wedding came to a disaster.  At other times when the solution runs counter to what we know the bride wants, we’ll get her permission – like we did with Kayse.

On the day of her wedding, Kayse was glad we were able to offer a solution that allowed her to keep the mood she wanted for her ceremony.  When Kayse and Trent saw their video they were delighted.  We’re glad it will be a part of their lives for all the years to come.

Reagan and Miles – Wedding Videography Dallas TX at Brown Trail Church of Christ in Bedford

Ever since Miles met Reagan at church, he knew she was the one.  The couple was married at the Brown Trail Church of Christ in Bedford and captured for Wedding Videography Dallas TX.

Reagan used a classroom of the church for her bride’s room. There she put on the beautiful gown and veil which transformed her into a vision of luminous white tulle.  Her sleeveless gown with a sweetheart neckline featured appliquéd roses and lace at the bottom of the full skirt.  Lace also decorated her fingertip veil.

The sanctuary of the church was transformed into a dramatic wedding venue with mutli-armed wrought-iron candelabra on the stage and wrought-iron candle holders on each pew.  The flickering flames inside the column candles added an air of romance to the scene.  The Church of Christ has a glorious tradition of choral music and the ceremony was graced by an acapella choir.  At the end of the ceremony the congregation sang a blessing.

The reception was a culinary delight.  Each layer of the lovely muli-tiered wedding cake was decorated with a different motif.  The top of the cake was graced with a porcelain bride and groom.  The groom’s cake was a milk chocolate masterpiece, drizzled with dark chocolate and decorated with chocolate-dipped strawberries.  The guests were also treated to a buffet meal which ended with a bonanza of homemade sweets.

It was impossible to miss the fact that Reagan and Miles were Aggies.  In fact, they had a whole table devoted to Aggie traditions.  Then during the garter toss, he wrapped the lacy item around an Aggie football and hiked it to the single guys.  A groomsman grabbed the ball out of the air before he remembered that the tradition suggested he’d be the next groom, a prospect he wasn’t thrilled about.

As the sun set, Reagan and Morgan said their farewells beneath a shower of pink rose petals.  Then they hopped into their car and roared away into their future.

A highlight of Reagan and Morgan’s wedding was the magnificent choral music sung by live vocalists.  One of the songs they sang was the haunting “Sunrise, Sunset” from the musical Fiddler on the Roof.   LeniCam’s producer wove the lovely song into the fabric of the entire video.

As important as it was to record the audio and video live, what happened with the footage in our studio was even more critical to the final product and required more time than it did to record the wedding.  Our producer takes all the audio and video footage and in the weeks after the wedding, painstakingly mixed and edited it,frame by frame, just like they do in Hollywood.  The result is a unique creation which Reagan and Morgan will cherish throughout their marriage.
