<p>Sure, Charles and Sarah had a amazing wedding, but they also had the greatest reception of all time! To say the bride and groom and their friends and family love to dance and celebrate is an understatement. With the help of Charles brother &ldquo;<a href="http://www.carnagetheexecutioner.com">Carnage the Executioner</a>&rdquo; doing a live performance, some incredibly touching and hilarious toasts, and the <a href="https://www.saintpaulhotel.com">St. Paul Hotel</a> being beautifully transformed, it was a night to remember! In addition to being equally skilled on the dance floor, Charles and Sarah also happen to be a perfect match and are deeply in love! It was an honor to capture such a special couple and celebration! Special thanks to The St. Paul Hotel, and as always it was a pleasure to shoot alongside Justin of <a href="http://graddyphotography.com">Graddy Photography</a>.

<p>As perfectionists, it makes perfect sense that Tom and Lesley chose each other to spend their lives together - and together they make the perfect couple! Their wedding week of adventure, laughter, connection and celebration with family and friends in Kauai, Hawaii was nothing short of epic. Everything from the BBQ at the Puu Poa condos, the catamaran and snorkel tour along the Na Pali coast with <a href="http://www.napali.com">Capt. Andy Sailing</a>, the welcome dinner at <a href="http://kalypsokauai.com">Kalypso</a>, the helicopter tour with <a href="http://www.sunshinehelicopters.com/kauai/">Sunshine helicopters</a>, golfing at the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.princeville.com/golf/prince-golf-course">Princeville Golf Course</a>, and the rehearsal dinner at <a href="http://cgkauai.net">the Common Ground</a> was absolutely perfect. And of course a special thanks to Ashlee and her amazing team at the <a href="http://www.starwoodhotels.com/stregis/property/overview/index.html?propertyID=189">St. Regis Princeville</a> for helping create such a special and beautiful day! I could write paragraphs about our time together and how much this film means to me, but of course it is much better seen than read. It was an honor of a lifetime to film and celebrate with such amazing people. Congrats Tom and Lesley.

<p>Although from very different cultures and far away countries, Kelly and Sean are the perfect match and they had the most amazing Hawaiian wedding.&nbsp; From the sunrise on <a href="http://www.nps.gov/hale/index.htm">Haleakala</a>, breakfast at <a href="http://www.grandmascoffee.com">Grandma&rsquo;s coffee</a>, a sunset whale watching cruise on the <a href="http://www.aliinuimaui.com">Alli Nui</a>, snorkeling at black rock, to the ceremony at the breathtaking <a href="http://www.olowaluplantationhouse.com">Olowalu Plantation House</a>, their Maui wedding was the perfect combination of adventure, elegance, laughter and love.

<p>Brad and Laura had an incredibly touching, fun, and beautiful winter wedding in Minneapolis. From grandparents to coworkers; family and friends played a huge role in the celebration. As they joined their lives together, the love and excitement for Brad and Laura was felt everywhere and in every moment. Laura&rsquo;s infectious smile and outgoing personality is perfectly complimented by Brad&rsquo;s calm, cool demeanor and his sense of humor.&nbsp; If you spend any time around them, it is instantly apparent that they are the perfect match!

<p>Hannah and Mike had an amazing winter wedding in Lake Geneva, WI. I knew these guys were special from our first conversation - they both love a good workout and consider their dog Peanut a child - talk about a cool couple! I am so honored to have captured their day. Their family and friends couldn&rsquo;t have been more wonderful and really added to a special celebration. The wedding day was filled with laughter, tears, beautiful details, a stunning bride, slightly inappropriate toasts, very touching love letter, air-dance double dutch, and so much more. I could go on but their film tells the story so much better. Enjoy the wedding of Hannah and Mike!Special thanks to the <a href="http://www.grandgeneva.com">Grand Geneva Resort</a>.

<p>Ryan and Melissa had the most beautiful fall wedding in Nisswa Minnesota at <a href="http://www.grandviewlodge.com">Grandview Lodge</a>. From the fall colors, to the rustic yet elegant decor, everything couldn&rsquo;t have been more perfect - including the couple themselves. Ryan and Melissa are a true match. As was pointed out in the ceremony and toasts, they compliment each other so well - and if you spend anytime around them that becomes immediately obvious. Thanks to Nicolle from <a href="http://www.mother-of-the-bride.com">Mother of the Bride</a> for planning and coordinating such a special celebration. Of course there are a million favorite moments I want to point out but their films says it all.

<p>It&rsquo;s hard to even know where to start with such an amazing couple like Erin and Brett and their incredibly touching wedding in Fargo. I&rsquo;ve spent a lot of time with this footage and know it well, but it still moves me every time. The entire day was a beautiful dance of celebration and joy weaved together with remembrance of loss. To put it simply, it was perfect. So much thought had gone into all the little and big details which made every moment filled with significance. Everything from the <a href="http://www.moorheadcountryclub.com">Moorhead Country Club</a>, to <a href="http://www.fargohope.org">Hope Lutheran</a>, and the <a href="http://www.ramadafargo.com">Ramada</a> was amazing.

<p>Katy and Colin&rsquo;s wedding was a beautiful (and fun!) celebration of love and their family and friends played a huge role. Basically, it was a huge party centered around these two amazing people who were joining their lives together. From a karaoke toast, to a Meat Loaf family tradition on the dance floor, (out of control in a great way) and much more, every moment was filled with intention, love, laughter, and emotion - and couldn&rsquo;t have fit Katy and Colin any better.

<p>Simply put, Matt and Merlyn are the best of us. They use their intelligence, talent for languages, and love of people to do good around the world working for the United Nations. In addition to that, they make a perfect couple and had an incredibly special wedding. Everything about their day was perfect, from hilarious and touching stories at the rehearsal dinner at <a href="http://www.interlachencc.org">Interlachen</a>,&nbsp;to the beauty and symbolism of the Orthodox ceremony at <a href="http://saintgeorge-church.org">St George</a> and the amazing details of the reception at the <a href="http://www.damicocatering.com/cateringvenues/calhoun_beach_club.aspx">Calhoun Beach Club</a>. However, what I enjoyed most about the wedding weekend was simply seeing Matt and Merlyn together. They light up in each others presence and seem to be at home in each others arms. They are a perfect match. Seeing family and friends from very different backgrounds and traditions come together to celebrate love gives me hope for the world. There is so much more I want to say, but their film says it best. Enjoy! Shukran and Obrigado! <span>To purchase the music used in this film please&nbsp;</span><a href="http://vimeo.com/51942057">click here</a></p>

<p>If you spend any time around Kay and Slade you instantly understand why they are such a perfect match. They are two of the kindest, warm, and welcoming people, both bursting with joy and love for their family and friends. It makes sense that once their paths finally crossed it was an instant connection. Their wedding day reflected who they are through beauty, sentiment, emotion, celebration and laugher. As is often the case, it&rsquo;s the little things that can tell you a lot. Even though we were surrounded by the beauty of the family vineyard in New Prague, <a href="http://saintwenceslaus.org">St. Wenceslaus Church</a>, and <a href="http://www.brackettscrossingcc.com">Brackett&rsquo;s Crossing</a>, it was the way Slade twirled both moms at the end of the isle, and the way Kay embraced everyone she saw and couldn&rsquo;t stop smiling. It was moments like these and so many more that said it all. Get ready for some laughs and joyful tears!
