Emily and Alex are incredibly sweet individuals and it’s so joyful to see them join as husband and wife. In fact, my heart leapt last weekend when we got to see them at another wedding we were filming, this time as married guests! I first joined Emily and her mom at their home in High Point a month before their wedding, to hear about their plans for the big day and see the church and String & Splinter Club. Grace, of Grace Leisure Events, had done a fabulous job of bringing their vision to life, and it was such a treat to capture the glamorous details and sweet moments.
Emily & Alex : it’s to clear how happy you make each other. It’s our sincere hope that your first Christmas together is filled with warmth and joy. Thank you, truly, for allowing us to be a part of your wedding.

Highlands, NC holds a very special place in our hearts; it’s where we celebrated our honeymoon! So, when Lindsey called me this summer to inquire about filming her wedding in Highlands, we were jumping for joy at the opportunity to return to this idyllic spot in the peak of fall! It turns out that Highlands holds a special place in this couple’s memories as well; it’s where Lindsey was born, and where Dan proposed to Lindsey!
Today we join many others in welcoming Grace Austin Isaacson to this world! Grace is Lara Casey and Ari Isaacson’s first baby, and she couldn’t have entered a home filled with more love, joy, and grace.
When Philip and I were dating, and I lived in downtown Durham, we’d walk past the Imperial Building weekly on our trek to the Durham Farmers Market. Never did we imagine we’d be filming a wedding reception in this beautiful historic building. Enter Lindsey, Bryan, and their sizable creativity. This fun-loving couple works in this building, and with the help of their families and some talented wedding creatives, they turned the top floor into one of the most exquisite wedding venues we’ve ever had the opportunity to film.
On an overwhelmingly gorgeous fall day in October, Cate & Tim joined their close friends and family to celebrate their marriage at the iconic St. Regis Hotel in Washington, D.C. Guests enjoyed cookie and wine pairings courtesy of Cookies & Corks, before the couple, looking absolutely glamorous in their wedding attire, exchanged hand-written vows as the sun set over the terrace. The details of the day were impeccable, but what truly caught our attention was the thoughtful words the couple shared with one another during their ceremony. Filled with candor, hope and promise, their vows represented their genuine commitment to one another, just as wedding vows should. We were so moved by their words that we included many of their vows in this highlights film.
Brett Fox - Wow, great job guys. Looked like you were a long ways up there in the balcony. Looked great!
Meredith Perdue - This is the cutest! Emily & Alex are adorable together- especially on the dance floor. Great job, guys!
