We all battled with the bitterly cold wind, yet still it was an absolutely lovely wedding day!  And we met yet another great photographer, and she was Amy from MurphyWattsPhotography.

Something we thought we’d share you with you on this post is what our DVD covers and DVD menus look like.  We personalise the artwork and menus for each and every wedding we cover - you’ll find the examples below the framegrabs.

Holly and Ellie, the two professional wedding co-ordinators for Eastlands, hosted and organised a fantastic event yesterday, and brought together their preferred wedding suppliers and future wedding couples for some splendid showcasing and wine-tasting.  It has to be said that the mulled wine especially went down well!  A special thankyou to Holly and Ellie for making sure we could display our films on the projector screen, it went down a treat!

I’d really like to take this opportunity to mention some great wedding vendors who we’d love to work with again, after having met them all at the event:

They had chosen the unedited package, whereby they receive the footage at the end of the night.  We can’t wait to see how they edit our work!

We had quite possibly the best special messages section to date….Carina and Karn have some amazing friends, who ganged together for some sing-songs and word play, with groups of up to 25 at a time!

Here’s just one photo I managed to swipe with my own camera on the day, leaving the numerous professional photo-taking to the brilliant duo at OnlocationEvents Photography.

Congratulations to Carina and Karn!

The wedding itself started in Essex, and ended on board Tereza Joanne (London Docklands), with a performance by the talented vocal quintet, CL6.

They are both graphic artists, and the wedding ‘branding’ they adopted was just so impressive! The invites, table decorations, order of services - all with a ‘Love Is’ theme.

Oh, and we LOVED the dance, guys!

FX Films and Lime Leaf Weddings together will be providing a new addition for 2009 - Bridal Model Shoots.  It will be a filming and photographing experience like no other, working together and using our finest equipment in a professional photographic studio.

And what better way to end 2008 than with a COMPETITION, for one lucky girl to receive this all for FREE.  So that’s a day with professional photographers and videographers, all centering around YOU (and we’ll even throw in a free lunch!)  You’ll walk away with photos and cinematic film to cherish forever.

All we need is for you to email 1 or 2 photos of yourself, location details, and a brief sentence about why you think you should win.  Ideally you would own, or have access to, a beautiful wedding dress, to wear on the day.  The deadline is DECEMBER 31st and the winner announced in the New Year (Shoot Date - Jan/Feb, Location: South UK).
Good luck!

Simply email info@fxfilms.co.uk with your entry.

Superb music throughout the day from Alison Balsom and the Balsom Ensemble, and a live band, Polly and the Billets Doux, towards the end of the evening.

Oh, and just check out that moon!

This particular wedding we couldn’t wait to get to, because I had personally stayed at the luxury venue itself; Arora International Hotel, Gatwick.  And what joy filming crane-like shots from the glass elevators

First up is news that they have a newly revamped website, with an impressive gallery of photos, and all new package deals.

Guests transformed themselves into zombies, killers, creatures, characters and clowns for the night’s shennanigans.  Other additions included fire-eaters, a cackling stilt-walker, Tim Burton film-themed tables and cake!

Stevie and Daniel chose our ‘unedited’ package for this wedding, so instead of our usual film framegrabs, I have decided to upload some photos I took inbetween shoots:
