We love when wedding guests give meaningful toasts at the reception. Not only does allow us to get to know the couple even more, but it allows us to also include some really great narrative in the video!
A family friend actually gifted the couple a video of their ceremony so we were only hired to film the reception. It's not something we generally do, but we are so pleased with the results.

This couple. These families. They were just great! Not only was everyone relaxed for the wedding weekend to be here, but you could also feel the excitement in the air! Although the bride and groom both grew up in California, fate brought them both to Alabama for school. I guess you could say that the rest is history!

It's here! My favorite time of year!!! Sure, I'm wishing that the Alabama weather would be a little less Summer-like, but I know it's coming.
For the past year or so, we have seen an increase in popularity of yard games at wedding receptions. And from someone who LOVES board games, I think this is the best idea for your outdoor wedding! This time of year will be perfect to make a few additions to your reception.
Pick your favorite or do them all!
1 - Cornhole. A must these days, don't you agree?
2 - Life-size scrabble. Yes please!
3 - Crouquet - classic.
4 - There's nothing like a competitive game of Jenga to spice up your cocktail hour.
5 - How cool is this GIANT Connect 4 game featured on Green Wedding Shoes?
Check out our Pinterest board for more ideas and some pins even have the directions on a DIY version of each game!
