Blog Index

We have tried to design our blog for our fans, friends, and family to keep up with what we are doing each week.  It is also a good way to get to know us.  Or maybe just a way that I (Angela) can talk up a storm without John getting annoyed.  We will see...

Also included are the Insider's Tips, which started out as a challenge to post one tip per week for an entire year.  We hope that you will find that they are not just the normal information you find out there in wedding world, but more unusual tips that can only be found when you live on the inside.  Ha!  Really, we just attend a lot of weddings.

Grandma doing the Electric Slide!

When I met with Lauren and Daniel, we discussed all of the details for the wedding.   They were getting married at Our Lady of Sorrows in Homewood, with the reception at Matt Jones Art Gallery.  They made the very wise decision to hire Alene Gamel with I Do, I Do, to plan and organize the entire event.  


I took a lot of notes so that I could make sure that their video was one of a kind, just like they were.  They told me to make sure that we got footage of grandma leading the Electric Slide during the reception.  I knew that they were serious, but didn't quite know what to think about it.   And really, not until you see it happen, will you really believe that this lady got up and starting doing the Electric Slide!!!!  It was great!  She was great!  

So of course, it had to be their honeymoon clip!  I can't wait for Lauren and Daniel to see it.  I think they will think it is very funny.  Actually I don't think Daniel made it into this clip, but it was too funny - I had to post it!  I hope he doesn't mind.  We have plenty of other great shots of him!  I think Jessica Messer got really great shots too!

Enjoy this fun clip!

Goldstein-Schell Throw Down

The term "throw down" is not a term that I use lightly.  But this wedding reception was just that!  Wow!  I have never seen a grandmother dance like Stephanie's grandmother!  Talk about shaking your tail feathers!!!!


Earlier in the evening, Stephanie and Teddy got married upstairs in Our Lady of Sorrows.  But their reception was unlike any reception held in the church that we have filmed!  There was a great DJ, a well-stocked bar, and plenty of food for the guests.  We have hours of great dance footage that we can't wait to share with the bride and groom.  Here is just a tiny bit of dancing just so that you can see how much fun everyone had!
