Cornelia and Cameron in Wedding Video Dallas from Event 1013, Downtown Plano

 Cameron, a love-sick sailor posted in Japan, was on the phone to Cornelia in the States, trying to convince her towards a more serious commitment.  Cornelia was having none of it.  She wanted to look him in the eye when he confessed his love for her. So, he arranged for her to travel to Japan. That’s when he won her heart.  Cornelia and Cameron were married in a beautiful wedding catered by Agnes Bowens of Affairs Amore at Event 1013 in Downtown Plano.

At this wedding, the lovely bride wasn’t the only one in white.  The handsome groom wore his dapper Dress White Navy Uniform.  An hour before the pair met at the altar, Cameron brought his bride to tears when his thoughtful gift was delivered.  It included the key to his heart and a vintage timepiece to mark the happy hours of their life together.

The bride wore a strapless fit-and-flare gown of white chiffon with corset lacing.  The ruched bodice was trimmed in crystal and exploded into a skirt and train of ruffles.  Her long veil was tulle. The bridesmaid’s peach gowns echoed the style of the wedding dress and the flower girl’s ruffley dress was tied with a peach sash.  The bride’s bouquet was made of hand-formed satin roses and the bridesmaids carried votive candles in decorated glass jars.

“You are the answer to my many prayers,” Cameron said in the vows he’d written.  Both the bride and groom, made references to the role God played in bringing them together and they vowed to include Him in their home and family.  A sand ceremony completed their wedding service.

After the touching wedding, the room was transformed for the reception.  Candlelight dominated the scene from a wall of votives to votives and roses among mason jars on tabletops.  Guests enjoyed a gorgeous three-tiered cake with a huge peach fondant rose.  Then everyone danced the night away until it was time for the bride and groom to depart.  As the couple made their way to a white vintage Rolls Royce, their guests waved streamers of white and peach.

When our camera-people arrived at Event 1013, they immediately introduced themselves to the other vendors on-site.  On wedding day, we consider all vendors are on the same team.  While setting up, the organist realized the romantic votives around the room didn’t provide enough light for him to play his instrument.  LeniCam came to the rescue, positioning a camera to do double duty – lighting up the ceremony for filming and lighting up the musician’s corner for sound.

Capturing distinct facial features against the bright, reflective white of wedding apparel is another important job of the videographer and it requires extraordinary skill.  At this wedding, the task was made even more difficult by the low light of the candles, and as you can see, the couples excitement is as bright as can be.

Hillary and Collin at Northwest Bible Church and Celebration Event Center in Video Wedding Dallas TX

Hilary was a vision of white lace surrounded by translucent tulle as she joined Collin in matrimony at their home church, Northwest Bible Church in Dallas.  Collin was so stunned by the beauty of his bride, as she made her way down the aisle, Pastor Neil Tomba pressed a hand into the groom’s shoulder for reassurance.

The glorious June day was perfect for photos of the beautiful Hilary and her bridesmaids.  The glowing bride in her white dress stood in stark contrast to her attendants in deep sapphire.  After the wedding, the party moved to the reception at Celebration Event Center in Plano.

Celebration Event Center created an attractive backdrop for the bride and groom as they descended a stairway into the reception.  The drama of the entrance continued with the wedding party seated on a raised dais at the front of the facility.  Satin covered tables and chairs, exquisite floral arrangements and tall columns twined with twinkle lights all added to the beauty of the evening.

During the formal activities of the reception, like the First Dance and cake-cutting, Hilary continued to wear her lovely wedding gown, but later, she donned a short brocade sheath that allowed her to show off her extraordinary crystal-studded shoes while she boogied the night away.  At the evening’s end, friends and family said farewell with cascades of bubbles under the facility’s gingerbread entry.

 Our participation in Hillary and Collin’s wedding began before their wedding day and continued for weeks afterwards.  From our first contact with the bride we asked lots of questions so we could understand Hilary’s vision for her special day.  On their big day we arrived and hour and a half ahead of time, to set up in time for the ceremony, consult the other wedding vendors and capture the pre-ceremony excitement.

We used two cameras during the ceremony as well a variety of audio feeds to record both the sights and sounds of the wedding.  One videographer was near the couple, to get close-ups during the vows.  Another videographer, up in the balcony, used a videocamera on a tripod to get wider shots, like Hillary standing next to Collin with her lovely lace veil and train spread on the stairs at the front of the church.  

 During the reception our videographers were everywhere, recording everything while remaining virtually transparent to the guests and participants.  Since one of the venue’s walls was completely covered in mirrors, we had to get creative to avoid having our reflections in the video.  When the couple said farewell, we still had a lot of work to do.

Once a shoot was complete, all the video and audio recordings were taken back to our studios where they were meticulously edited and mixed to produce a video that looks just like Hillary said she wanted her wedding to look.  After our version was complete, we delivered it to Hillary and Collin for their editing suggestions.  Then the final product was produced with a menu and scene selections so that the video can be watched in whole or in parts as the couple desires.  We can even include alternate versions for various audiences.  Even the case is customized for the couple.

Still, our job was not done.  We loaded the highlights video online for family and friends to see and stored everything on our secure server, so that even if something happened to Hillary and Collin’s copies of the video, we’d still have their memories available.

This video demonstrates our “trailer-format” highlight video.  It is shorter and moves faster than our traditional format.  Hilary downloaded it on her phone and enjoyed showing it to everyone.

At LeniCam our mission is to save the joy and excitement of your special day for you to enjoy all the days of your marriage.
