“I may not yet fully understand the love that I have for you and I hope that I never do.
Because mine is a feeling that I wish to be lost in forever, a feeling that surprises and amazes me each day we spend together…

We have traveled many roads together but there has been no greater adventure than the love that we share. As we navigate through this journey, I find comfort with you by my side. Since the beginning you’ve been my best friend and most important, my inspiration…”

Weddings are always full of emotions. The couple must possess such great passion and love for each other in order to express what one’s heart truly desires. Dennis and Paula never had a problem with that area, for their love is pure and it shows in their vows. With such moving vows, I used it as the backbone for the whole Highlight video for me to share with you guys what footage could not be expressed with mere visuals alone.

See, hear and feel the love as I try to relive the moments fresh from Monterey, CA.

P.S. I wouldn’t have achieved this video without the help of Stan Szeto of Blue Reel Productions. Thanks Stan for traveling all the way from work to Monterey to help me out!

And to Paula and Dennis, thank you so much! Will be sure to give you guys a ring if I pass by San Diego! ^_^

It is so hard to write something for a couple whom we’ve become already friends with. But then again, after Audrey and Cesar’s wedding we knew I had to write something really good to somehow give justice to the spectacularly magical moments we have just experienced. So why don’t I start this off by declaring Audrey and Cesar’s wedding to be one of the most tearful, touching, cheesy yet heartfelt weddings I ever attended. It’s true! No romantic Hollywood movie could have evoked those heart-tugging emotions I felt while witnessing these two wonderful people as they expressed their love from each other. From the moment the bride entered the church until the couple said their thank-you speech at the reception…all you could feel is love coupled with tears of joy. Not just droplets of tears…but buckets of tears!

It then made us realize that weddings are not just about the glitz and the glamour or how much money a couple spent. More importantly, it is an event worth celebrating for the most basic reason of all…the love of the couple for each other and the love of the family and friends whom they shared that memorable day with. We are so happy for these two people because after eleven long years, finally, they have tied the knot! We will surely miss hanging out with these two. So without further ado here are two of the videos we made for them…

Trailer
A little info, this trailer was shot during Audrey’s birthday…days before her wedding day. Doesn’t she make for one stunning bride? And Cesar…? Well, let me quote one of the guests during their wedding day… “He can be easily mistaken as a run-way model for Milan’s latest formal men’s wear”. He sure looked elegant in that suit!

Same Day Edit
Here is something that was made out of pure love. We would like to thank the famous “MR. BOB NICOLAS” and the rest of his uber talented team for sharing his expertise with us during the wedding day. Some of the shots you will witness in this video especially the jaw dropping crane shots were fully credited to him and his team.
