Riga + Ash | Fusion Wedding Highlights | Nestldown and Silver Creek

When I watch this film I want to laugh, cry, dance, and more than anything, revisit these wonderful two days that we spent with Riga and Ash. They are simply adorable and such a beautiful couple. We are so very honored and thrilled to have made this short film for them to enjoy with their family and friends. Venues included Nestldown, the brides home, San Jose Gurudwara, and Silver Creek Clountry Club.

Sit back, turn up your speakers, and enjoy!

Sikh Wedding Same Day Edit

Last week was a fun one! We spent five days with our lucky couple and photographed and filmed all their events including the Bride’s Mehndi night, the Bride and Groom’s respective Maiyan ceremonies, the Bride’s Choora ceremony, as well as, both their Sangeet nights! The fourth day was the wedding at the San Jose Gurudwara, followed by their reception on the final day at the Scottish Rite Center in Oakland, CA. This was the most expansive project we have ever tackled. With so many events over so many days, with a lot of team members covering these events, it was no easy task. I am so excited that we pulled it off and have this amazing same day edit to show for it!

Each night we had to back up our memory cards and encode the video files for editing. We had to play close attention to organization as multiple cameras were used at multiple events. Each night we would rough cut some of our selections but the real editing was basically done Saturday night after the ceremony and was completed just an hour or so before we showed the edit live in front of about 700 guests on two projectors.

For the final highlights we will add the reception portion to this film and will also be doing a long form video of all the events and wedding ceremony and reception.

If you would like a same day edit of your Indian wedding in the San Francisco Bay Area give us a call! We really enjoy the satisfaction of sharing what we capture with our audience immediately after the event and it is great entertainment for your guests!

Sit back and enjoy our edit! We suggest you hit “play”, then “pause” to let it load and then hit “play” again if you have a slower internet connection.

 

Aditi + Raghav | Reception Highlights at Santa Clara Marriott

We had an amazing time working with Aditi and Raghav last month at their wedding reception at the Santa Clara Marriott Hotel. They were married in India but had a party here in the Bay for their friends that could not make it to India. With Raghav being a stand up comedian, there was never a dull moment with these two! Sit back and enjoy this highlights of their reception!

Divya and Sukham | San Francisco Hindu and Sikh Wedding

It has been more common lately for us to be hired for weddings where there are two wedding ceremonies! The most recent was Divya and Sukham’s gorgeous wedding that took place in San Francisco at the Palace Hotel. It was originally planned to be at the Westin St. Francis but due to a huge conference the same weekend, they moved it over to the Palace Hotel. Everything was gorgeous thanks to Amrit and her amazing design skills.

Our couple was drop dead gorgeous and we are so excited to share these two films with you! The first is a the highlights reel which is a recap of the entire wedding day cut to the music of the couple’s choice. It is so fun to watch in just a few short minutes and because of the length, it’s very easy to stream on the web and share with friends and family around the world!

The film below here is the Cinematic Feature Film. In this case the total length is about 20 minutes and it is the wedding film from the event. It shows more of everything, including the ceremony and reception, but is still short enough to engage an audience and prevent the viewer from wanting to hit fast forward. In addition to this film the client will also receive a basic edited version of their ceremony and reception program.

To inquire about our films for your wedding or event in the Bay Area, please send us an email and we will get back to you as soon as possible. If you are already a client and would like this short form documentary instead of a very long video, please also let us know and we will see what we can do to swap that for you!

Have a great weekend!
