If there’s one thing I LOVE it is seeing people we know at a wedding. Whether it is other wedding professionals we’ve worked with and befriended over the years, previous clients who are guests at another wedding, or in this case…another sibling in the family getting married! Not only does this show how much the family loves our sparkling personality (haha!) but that they loved their sibling’s video so much that they wanted to hire us for another wedding! That is the ultimate compliment and expression of trust.

Of course many of you know that one of the other things I love is Hawaii (where I grew up). And while these families are actually Samoan, there were constant reminders of Pacific island culture…the flowers, music, food, dancing, and LOTS of sweet family all reminded me of home.

We filmed one of Leslie’s brother’s weddings a few years ago (Marques & Lisa), so when she hired us, I was so excited to see this amazing family again! This is a family of great athletes who are so “real”, down-to-earth and just the nicest people you could ever meet. And both the Tuiasosopo and Gabriel families are full of people who always seem to be laughing and enjoying themselves! There were almost 400 people and Nelliena at Snoqualmie Ridge Golf Club did an incredible job of keeping everything on track…the day turned out perfectly! There were two “First Glances” with Leslie’s Dad, Manu being the first to see her and then he and her mom walked Leslie over to Anthony who tried REALLY hard to hold it together when he turned around to see his beautiful bride for the first time. It was an amazing day!

I could seriously go on and on about this wedding, but instead I’ll just show you their Same Day Edit. If all the laughing and hollering when we showed it is any indication, I think you’ll agree that it came out pretty awesome!

Kierstan and Chris live in St. Paul Minnesota but contacted us by phone about filming their wedding here in Seattle. I had such a great time speaking with Chris on the phone multiple times and was really excited to finally meet them in person last month when they were in town to meet with their coordinator, Melissa Parker, to finalize details of the big day. Everyone was worried it would rain but it turned out to be a gloriously sunny day! I hope you enjoy their Same Day Edit wedding video which is full of love and sunshine!
