The Knot - My Real Wedding

The Beach Wedding of My Dreams!

Editors' Pick!

Winner -- Voters' Pick!

Submitted by: Carrie Dean (bride)
Wedding date: June 16, 2007
Wedding location: Gulf Shores, Alabama

The beach is a special place for both James and me! We both grew up in Mobile, Alabama near the beach...taking trips to the shore for the weekend or during summers. James even proposed to me at the beach in Pensacola, Florida. As I walked down to the shoreline, he was down on one knee and had written, "Will you marry me?" in the sand! Of course, I said, "Yes!" So, we always knew that we wanted to have a beach wedding! Our video shows highlights of preparing for our big day, our beautiful ceremony, taking sunset pictures after the ceremony, and our reception!

Carrie and James, I justed wanted to thank you both for the honor of considering the video I produced for you as award worthy. The comments you have sent me as well as many of the ones here have reminded me just how meaningful and appreciated my work can be, and that makes my job that much more rewarding. I have noticed that some of the remarks here as well as on other boards have become down right venomous. I just hope you don't take them personally. You were a joy to work with, and I wish you all the best . Thank you, John Lestrade Take Two Video Productions

It's a very good video, IMO. Paced about right. Brings out the emotion and beauty of the day and event. A couple of places in the video where I thought technical mistakes....the vows over the image of the girl singing, for instance-distracting. Overall very good. The couple got a nice video.

Seems Your Friend CHRIS EDMON or ( the EDM-ON SHOW ) is way off base with his so called on site calls, James is a great photographer why ED-MON is calling Him a video guy is out of scope the Photos & Video Is magic in real time not all Brides can afford a Movie set that the (ED-ON SHOW ) can provide for Half a Million $

I would have to say this is one of the most beautiful videos I have ever seen. You can feel the emotion of the words of the songs and what is happening in the video. A perfect match!, msbuttercream

I'm not one to get all teary eyed, especially over someone I don't even know, but this video captured such beauty and joy. I must admit, I got a little choked up. Just lovely.

Camera operator seemed a bit intrusive - in faces, using lights, etc. Also can see equipment in the shots. Wedding looked beautiful, but looked like videographer was part of the wedding.
