Sand Barrens

On Sunday, the Sand Barrens hosted their first annual Bridal Fair and it was a great success.  A beautiful day brought out a large number of brides and grooms eager to gather information for their upcoming wedding.  The vendors in attendance showcased their many wonderful services.  The Sand Barrens gorgeous surrounding, delicious food, exquisite decor and friendly staff makes a perfect choice for your wedding reception or party. In this video we captured the excitement of this enjoyable afternoon.

Annie & Chris

Bride’s are usually a bit nervous on their wedding day….not Annie.  See for yourself.  Her crazy and lively spirit helped everyone stay calm.  Chris and Annie began their day at the Downtown Marriott in Philadelphia, which was also their reception site.   The song, which was special to them, “One Boy, One Girl” by Collin Raye, accompanied the love, fun  and emotions during this Pre-Ceremony segment.   Enjoy!

Do we need a video?

This is a question that has come up a few times over the years……and it may have crossed your mind.

These couples asked themselves the same thing.

Francesca & Tim

 

High energy, fun-loving, and unforgettable. These are just a few words to describe Francesca & Tim’s Wedding Day. Set in Philadelphia, their day began at the beautiful St. Patrick’s Church in Rittenhouse Square. The warm and sunny September day was a perfect backdrop for the bridal party as they posed for the photographers from Marks Photography in Rittenhouse Park. From there, they set off for the party. In Center City Philadelphia, the stage was set inside the Marriott’s ballroom for an extraordinary party. Big Ric and Vegas did an outstanding job keeping the dance floor moving as well as making Francesca and Tim feel like Hollywood stars. From cake smashing to stage diving, Francesca and Tim’s wedding was not only a fun time for the invited guests, but also for this videographer as well.
