Wrightsville Beach, NC

One of the biggest fears of having a beach wedding is always – What if it rains!?! Catherine and David are one of the luckiest couples ever. The Thursday before their big day I started to worry about the bad weather coming our way. Around 3 o’clock I get a call from a calm David asking if we could change our shooting times due to rain. He was in the process of calling ever vendor and moving their wedding up in the day to miss the storm. Magically every vendor, including us, easily changed their plans and Catherine and David had a marvelous day complete with a beautiful ceremony on the beach.

David and Catherine are such amazing people and we have had such a great time working with them. Their wedding was full of so many wonderful touches, mostly hand made with love by Catherine’s Mom. C & D’s big day was very special and full of love and happiness. You can just see how much David is in love with Catherine whenever he looks at her.
Congrats to the lovely couple! We hope everyone loves their highlights. I had a hard time fitting all the details in so you may need to watch a few times to see it all :).

Someone out there likes us! Seems we were nominated a few times for the Wedding Channel’s “Bridal Blog Awards” for Best Wedding Vendor Blog. Over 200 blogs were nominated and then the Wedding Channel Team picked their favorite 5 and wrote why they loved us and why each vendor was a great contributor the the wedding industry. Here is what they had to say about Life Stage!

“Why We Love It: Watching their videos will make you feel as though you were right there for all the best moments of a wedding, and their anecdotal tales of bonding with each couple they work with truly show their passion and dedication to making dream weddings come true. Plus, there’s nothing like seeing great details in action if you’re looking for true inspiration.”

Very humbled and honored to be in the mix for such an award. We came in a VERY close second, but we appreciate so many of you taking the time to vote and support us in our small but important corner of the world. :) If anything, we hope we were able to promote the fact that wedding videos are not only important, but fun! They don’t have to be boring or cheesy. They just need to be a reflection of you. And we are honored to form such awesome relationships with our clients at every wedding.

Love Affair Workshop

So, we recently got the opportunity to be in front of the camera at the Love Affair Workshop. This was a photography workshop for women. I have to admit that I was a little bummed that I am not a photographer. Those ladies were having the best time and I wanted to play too! We did learn a great deal pretending to be a bride and groom from the photographers that would make us feel comfortable and relaxed. Here are some of the pictures. Enjoy!
