This is the trailer for a wedding we filmed near Chicago on Saturday. This is just to tease you a bit. The wedding was held at the historic Union Station in the Grand Ballroom in Joliet, IL. We enjoyed spending some time with Nina and her family at her Grandmother and Grandfathers house, while she was getting ready. We love spending time with the family to learn a little bit about their story. I always leave wanting to spend more time with them. At the house, I noticed some old wedding photos, some dating back to the 1800′s, that were proudly displayed on their walls. Nina’s Grandmother talked about each one. We were able to document some of the important memories that Nina has. Every wedding couple has a story and it is very important for us to be able to extract those little stories. We believe that memories are far more important than any material thing you will ever receive. I found it interesting that Ninas fondest memory of her Grandfather was when she was riding home in the backseat of a car. Her Grandfather was holding her close and she cherishes a photo of that moment. Life is full of these little moments. We are all fading flowers and as time goes by the memories and the stories preserved by photos and film increase in value.

We look forward to editing this wedding day story.
