Michelle & Kevin - Sydney Harbour Wedding

This wedding was one of my favourites of all time. I hadn't met Michelle or Kevin until the wedding day. Usually I like to meet at least once just to have a chat, get to know each other so that we are not complete strangers on the day.

However, this wasn't necessary with Michelle and Kevin. They are one of the most relaxed, easy-going and friendliest couples I've met. To top it off they were married at the beautiful Lindsay House in Vauclause followed by the reception on Fort Denison in the middle of Sydney Harbour. Needless to say, it was an amazing day. Not to mention perhaps the hottest day I have experienced at a wedding.

The photographers were Kate & Chris from Uber Photography...they even make a couple of appearances in the video. See if you can pick them out.

Do you Really Remember your wedding?

Do you really remember your wedding?

Ask yourself: what was my wedding really like? Chances are you’ll remember all the running around, busy planning, and crazily hectic schedules. If you ask your best friend the same question, he or she will probably tell you more than you knew about your own wedding! Let’s face it: weddings are a chaotic circus and most brides and grooms survive it in a state of daze. They barely get to interact with their guests and miss out on a lot of the precious moments. More often than not it goes by too fast to be able to capture timeless memories in one’s mind. Thankfully videography changes all that!

It may seem like just another useless expense at the time, but wedding videos are truly worth every penny in retrospect. Not only does a skilled professional videographer capture the big moments of the special day, he also manages to capture the subtle yet significant personal touches that really make a wedding a cherished occasion. Moreover, the wedding video is the only wedding expense that’s not a one day splurge. The video can be shared with close family and friends who were unable to make it to the wedding itself. Most importantly, they can be enjoyed over a cup of hot chocolate while taking a trip down memory lane. Imagine the thrill you would get if you had the chance to sit down and watch your grandparents wedding on tv.

Weddings have become increasingly expensive affairs and more and more couples are seeking to tighten their budgets by cutting down on the so-called frills and sticking to the basics. There is however no bigger mistake than eliminating the idea of hiring a professional wedding videographer or equally bad, asking a friend or cousin to do it for you on a handycam!

Gone are the days of cheesey video with tacky effects. A skilled camera operator and editor can now weave your wedding video into a timeless movie capturing the true essence of your day.

So while you’re weighing up all the expenses for your big day, remember that it could be just one special day or a memory that lasts forever. The choice is yours to make, although I would personally recommend wedding videography as one of the best investments not only for your wedding, but for all of your marriage.
