This was our first Cambodian wedding. A two-day affair that we totally enjoyed filming. Day one was tough ’cause we didn’t understand what they were saying for the most part of the Cambodian ceremony, so we had to roll most of the time so as not to miss even a hiccup and make sure that all important events were captured. We were very delighted though by the colors, the rituals, the food ( lots and lots of if! ), and the costume changes. It was astounding! We finally got into our comfort zone on Day Two as it was a modern western ceremony held beautifully outdoors at the Westridge Golf Club in La Habra. Same day editing was a slam as we had tons of footage from the day and the day before. Just browsing through them was really rough. Best scene, I must say, was the vows. Both a tear-jerker and a comedy as our couple and their guests cried as they say their promises to each other and our groom-Andrew’s use of a poster board held by one of the bridesmaids to read his vows from. Quite creative. And all our hard work for 2 days paid off after the showing of the same day edit video in front of over 400 guests at the reception. It was a HIT! Lina and Andrew’s SDE is now our most viewed video online.. Thank you and congratulations Lina and Andrew!

A gift of time. This is what this day was all about, our couple’s promise and gift to each other. Sweet! As symbols, they gave each other watches to remind them of this day and their promises. The classy Shutters On The Beach in lovely Santa Monica Beach was the perfect setting for this beautiful exchange of vows between Doctor Michael and Nurse Millie. You can absolutely see their faces filled with joy as they celebrate this big day with their loved ones.

Michael and Millie, they say everything in time grows old and weak… but not true love, it’s forever.

..was that too cheesy, sorry. Here’s your Same Day Edit.

Ceremony and Reception: The Turnip Rose. Costa Mesa
Song: “Every Moment” by Jordan Critz. Licensed through The Music Bed.

We started the day at dawn for an early morning ceremony and lunch reception at the Turnip Rose. I met our couple, Eric and Annalyn, in person only on their wedding day. Both working long hours as nurses never gave us the chance to meet up, which I truly regret. Such a nice couple. I still remember the very warm welcome from our bride when we entered the room where she was getting ready. She later sent an e-mail sharing how they met and telling their beautiful love story. A couple very much in love, truly warm at heart and looking absolutely gorgeous on their wedding day. I have to admit being touched witnessing her coming down the Turnip Rose’s winding stairway crying as she was about to meet her teary-eyed groom. It was a very emotional moment for everybody. Beautiful raw emotions. Thank you Annalyn and Eric.
