Gone are the days of your uncle or father in law gliding around your wedding clutching his latest home video camera and announcing he will be taking care of your filming for your wedding day!
My wedding video was created by my uncle and my father in law to be and I remember laughing as we watched the end results particularly at the beginning when "Tell Laura I Love Her" had been edited into the video along with falling confetti and we could see my uncle´s hands merrily scattering the petals! Nevertheless we enjoyed it and loved seeing all our guests partying. There were many parts of the day I was not witness to, as it all goes by so quickly, so it was wonderful to see such a special day from a different perspective captured onto video, albeit a very early version!
It was put together with a lot of care and love by my uncle and I think it is fabulous this special occasion and a special part of my life was captured on movie film as well as documented in photos.
Now I am going way back to the late eighties when there was no savvy, cinematic stylish documentaries of your wedding day available and video had only recently been invented.
But how times have changed and the videos we watch now of our wonderful couples on their magical and special days reduce me to tears every time. These bespoke videos beautifully capture such precious moments, are amazingly edited and are like watching a romantic love film.
I so wish I had something like this albeit I would probably be cringing at my large eighties hair do and shoulder pads but would love it all the same! It is all a part of history and captures such magical and memorable moments.

I personally loved the fact all their tables were named after flowers with the top table called Lily, the name of their beautiful daughter, and that they did manage to get home the beautiful vintage white mirror table seating plan which is now hanging on their bedroom wall :)!
