Receptions: MTV or Endless Dance Sets!

When Christine and Mike said they didn't want to see (and hear) EVERY single song the DJ played at their reception on their video, I knew we were speaking the same language. Similar to ceremonies, most couples only "think" that they want to see every reception moment as it actually occurred. Keeping it interesting, fun and exciting to watch without making anyone feel like something is missing is the key to a great reception video. The fast forward button is the enemy.

Mike builds surfboards for a living; in this reception highlight, we were able to showcase Mike and Christine's surfing theme as well as virtually all of their friends and family. I'm sure Christine's dad will be reminded of what a great job he did doing the "worm" for years to come,. As receptions go, Christine and Mike's was a crazy time. Matching the great time her Matron of Honor, Roxanne and her husband Bill had when we recorded their wedding 13-years ago.






Chistine and Mike's reception site was Lands End, where they do an incredible job; and their photographers, who I have had the good forture to work with several times was Photos by Verdi.
