PenWeddings ~ Be True To Yourself

Photobucket

Be true to yourself. It's one of the first things we tell our brides. Often times, those who want to keep the coverage on their wedding day more classic and timeless take advantage of enhancements like Love Stories and Trash The Dress videos to express their "wild side."

While doing a wedding show in August, we had the chance to talk with a friend who knew we did wedding videos and was very interested in hiring us, but she just hadn't been able to convince her fiance that it was worth it. He had a preconceived notion-- like so many others-- that wedding videos are very mushy and cookie-cutter. He changed his mind when he saw a Trash The Dress video we had done. He saw how the video was tailored to fit that couple's personality.

This particular couple loves to play softball, and in a brief moment before they disappeared back into the crowd of thousands of busy brides (and yes, some grooms too) they said, "we could do a video where we play softball." That was how it started. One simple comment. Two months later we had a full plot in place, and we shot a fabulous Trash The Dress at an abandoned baseball field. That video is still in the works, and I can't wait to share it. Stay tuned!
