For both Lisa and Chris this would be their 2nd marriage. They each had wonderful kids, and knew they had found someone special, so the wedding was set for July 2009 at Windows on the Water and Creative Unlimited was extremely happy to be there to capture every moment.
We started at the Molly Pitcher Inn in Red Bank NJ where the happy couple were getting ready with the family. A lot of fun shots with the kids, and of course the beautiful bride and handsome groom. Then it was off to Windows on the Water in Sea Bright NJ where we got some really beautiful and fun shots of the couple on the beach, and even in the water (a little).
The ceremony and the party that followed were special as the couple was surrounded by close friends and family while making some very personal vows. It was a very sweet event and the evening was topped off with a bonfire on the beach and some good old fashioned marshmallow roasting. Check out these great clips from their wedding video:
Lisa and Chris Pre-Ceremony (Getting Ready and Video Shoot):
Jessica and Kenny met at Bar Anticipation in Belmar NJ. From the moment I met THEM, I knew they were a special and fun couple. It turns out they knew some of the same people I do, from my days at Bar A, haha. We got along so well that they even invited us to hang out there again. Jess got ready at the Ocean Place Resort and Spa in Long Branch, NJ. We met up with Kenny and the guys at Seven Presidents Beach, just down the road from the hotel, where a very sweet and personal ceremony was performed by Jessie Blum.
After some great shots on the beach we headed over to the reception at McLoone’s Pier House, also in Long Branch (right next to their hotel). It was my first time there, but it’s a great place for an intimate wedding. The dance floor was busy all night, and we got some great footage. Congrats again guys. Here are some great clips from their wedding:
I just got this great review from a Jessica, whose wedding we filmed recently. She says “Kenny, my parents, and I absolutely LOVE the raw footage!!!! You guys did such an amazing job and were so much fun to be around at the wedding! I keep watching the video over and over and it reminds of just how amazing and perfect the whole entire day was! Thanks for making it such a great day and also documenting all of our important events!!! You guys are the best! – Jess and Kenny :)”
Jessica’s mom also called to say how she really felt like she was at the wedding again watching the footage we captured. Our videographers and photographers operate in much the same way. We try to capture as many of the guests and moments of the day as possible. Plenty of weddings I’ve left confident that we captured every guests at least twice, and sometimes there are like 300 guests. It’s good to be meticilous and detailed 😉 I love getting great comments, the only kind we get 🙂
We filmed Jessica and Kenny’s wedding on May 8th. We started off at the Ocean Place resort and spa in Long Branch. Jessica was getting ready with her bridesmaids and parents. It was very laid back as everyone got their makeup done. We got a really cool Stop-Motion shot with her flowers and dress. I know they’ll love that one. It was perfect weather, sunny but with a cool breeze.
I left Dave behind with the girls while I went to Seven Presidents beach to get set up for the ceremony and get some shots of Kenny and the guys. They were nicely dressed in their khaki suits. I like light colors, of course it makes sense on the beach, matches the sand, plus Dave and I are the only dummies wearing black on a sunny day at the beach, haha.
The ceremony went beautifully. They were handing out seashells and the guests were instructed to place them in a circle in which Jessica and Kenny would take their vows. The female officiant did a great job, she told the story of how Jessica and Kenny met at Bar Anticipation (Bar A). They even know one of our friends, since we used to hang out there a lot too, haha. Small Jersey. What was funny about the story is that Jessica is the one that initiated things with Kenny, and after all these years she finally admitted during the ceremony that when she went up to him and said “Don’t I know you from somewhere”, that it was totally a pickup line and she had never met him before, haha. Everyone got a kick out of that.
It was great working with the photographers, and talking business with them over dinner. They actually filmed our friends wedding, the one that Jessica and Kenny happen to know as well, so again, Small Jersey. I’ve seen those pics, and they were great. We definitely got a lot of great stuff on the beach with Jessica and Kenny and their bridal party.
The reception was at McLoone’s Pier House. Nice place, great view of the ocean. The party went well, there were some great speeches, and a lot of fun dancing. Thankfully they got 2 camera coverage, because the way the room was set up, it really helped for getting some great reaction shots during speeches. Jessica and Kenny are just a really sweet couple, and they had a lot of nice touches throughout their wedding. From the lemonade stand by their ceremony, to the delicious yogurt covered pretzels for their guests to take home at the end of the night, it was all very nicely done. Congrats you guys on a great wedding.
