Its a great experience when our couples become our friends. When we get to know our couples, our experience filming their wedding day becomes more personal to us as well. We would not be a stranger and we would have felt we have known them for years. This is exactly what we felt when we were at Dorothy & Volker’s wedding.
I first received Dorothy’s enquiry for our services early this year and found out that they actually lived in Germany. Volker is a policeman in Germany whom has met Dorothy on the plane when Dorothy was then the flight stewardess. When she told me about this, I thought this must be those stories that we have so often seen in the cinema, except this one was a non-fiction one. I was convinced that their story was real after Dorothy shared the details of how they met. It was such a unique one and very personal to them.

The wedding was solemnized at One World Hotel by Sue Ann's close friend, Elise from the university days. Elise started the ceremony by reminding what the couple love and admire about each other. This again makes it more meaningful because this is why they have made the decision to get…
I truly enjoy getting to know how two lives come together as one. Its so enlightening when they tell the guest about their love story in their speeches they make. The stories just makes you feel so happy for them.

Thanks for watching.

Enjoy!

Just think about it… What if you were trapped under something heavy and the mouse was out of your reach? Scary, right? That's exactly why we have these keyboard shortcuts so you can still use Vimeo until the help arrives.
