Beth & Michael

I adored these two! They were married in Omaha on what turned out to be one of the nicest days weather-wise we've had all year.. how lucky! It was our first time working with Douglas Gunder photography and we can't wait to see how his photos turned out. Thank you Beth & Michael for allowing us to capture your wedding day.. we definitely had a blast! :)

Vernon & Sally

What a wedding day this was! We had an absolute blast with Sally & Vernon, plus many of our favorite vendors! They had a very unique and fun ceremony, with Vernon's brother performing a rap in the middle and the flower girls racing down the aisle. We took a limo to Wilderness Ridge fountains for photos, then into the lodge for a reception. Sally's son called from overseas in the middle of dinner with a toast we played over the speakers.. you could feel the emotion in the room! Her wedding coordinator, Sara Brown with Bella Signature Events kept the day on track and solving any problems that arose. Her photographer, Jamy Sullivan captured it all on film. The night had a few small set backs, but we made it through okay and what a party it was! Below is their choreographed first dance.. soon to be accompanied by their wedding day highlights. Enjoy!

Jim & Julie

Congratulations Jim and Julie! They were married last weekend at a beautiful church in Cortland, which was our first time filming out there. They were blessed with a beautiful day and a perfect ceremony.. the bridesmaids and Julie all wore red heels with their dresses and the entire wedding party had similiar sunglass to wear.. how fun! Their limo stopped at Grata for a few drinks before the reception at the Cornhusker in Downtown Lincoln. We got the chance to work with a lot of great vendors, including Patrick from the Cornhusker, Ginger from Atlantis Salon & Spa, Stacy with Petal Creations and Frank with Ekeler Photography. This was our first time working together with Frank and we were very excited about it - he did a fantastic job and we can't wait to see some images! Their highlights are below.. check them out!

Elwood Photography

As a professional in this wedding industry, I get the opportunity to work with many different vendors at each wedding and it's always a breath of fresh air to find one who is outstanding at their job. We've gotten the chance to work with Matt Elwood from Elwood Photography at many weddings this past summer and it's been a blast every time. He is an absolutely fabulous photographer to work with - his work is stunning and he's so much fun to be around! We've partnered with him to offer a 10% discount off BOTH your photography package AND your DJ or Video when you book with both of us for your wedding.. that's how much we love working together! I'm posting some of his images below.. check them out!

Wedding Music Mistakes!

You've never planned a wedding reception before.. we get it! That's why we are here - to help make sure your night flows smoothly and everything goes as planned. As tempting as it may be to try and save money by providing the music/entertainment yourself, a DJ/MC/or Band can be very helpful in coordinating the night and keeping the dance floor full. Couples make three major mistakes when planning their reception entertainment and we stumbled across an article that is full of great information on how to avoid it - to help keep your wedding planning stress free, of course :)

Chris & Jen (x2!)

This couple was awesome! I had a blast hanging out with them all day. We started at Northwest Hills United Church of Christ in Omaha for their ceremony, which was beautiful. They had a fun church exit in bubbles and boarded a truck-limo from Extreme Racing Limousines - how cute! We stopped at Upstream along the way for some down time (and to prove that Honey Raspberry beer really is the best on earth - thanks Jen!) before continuing on to the Scottish Rite Temple for her reception. It was my first time in that venue and I fell in love! The main ballroom was the perfect size, with adjoining rooms for the buffet and the bar to work perfectly. We stayed through their wedding party dance (which was choreographed to ZZ Top's "Sharp Dressed Man") and had a blast the entire time. Our DJ kept the dance floor packed, making sure everyone had fun. Thanks again for letting us spend the day with you! Their highlights are below.. check them out!

Mat & Christy, 8.8.09

One word: Wow! Megan and I were truly amazed by these two.. we had the opportunity to put together a Love Story video for them before the wedding, detailing how they met, the proposal, and what they are most looking forward to on their wedding day. After being together for 7 years, these two are the definition of true love and we were blessed to spend the day with them! They were married in Lincoln with a reception following at Hillcrest Country Club, which was absolutely stunning. They carried the sunflower theme throughout, on their programs, in her bouquets, and with cookies at every seat. We got to work with Jamy Sullivan Photography and her ideas for photos were gorgeous - we were up in the balcony at sunset - I can't wait to see her images! The highlights are below - Enjoy!! :)

Troy & Ashley

This was a very special wedding - Ashley is a high school friend of mine and we were so excited at the chance to video her wedding! Her and Troy got the most perfect day for their wedding and things turned out amazing. They tied the knot in the Methodist church in our hometown of Harlan, IA with the reception at the Therkildsen Center. From their first meeting to their bouquet and garter, you can tell these two are so in love :) We got some fantastic footage - check out the highlights below!

Chad & Lauren

What an amazing day! I traveled to Dallas, TX last weekend to film the wedding of two friends and it was absolutely stunning! It meant a lot to me because I've gotten to know each of them as individuals before I even found out they were dating. I got to know Chad through our Senior Campaigns class at UNL, where our group spent many late nights up editing projects and planning details. Lauren and I met when she interviewed to be an addition to our staff here at ASI and have spent many weddings filming together. It was truly a blessing to be involved in this day and I want to extend a big thank you to Lauren, Chad and both their families for the opportunity. I got the chance to work with Paul & Andy with imaginography Photography and can't wait to see their photos. Below are the highlights from their day - I purposely made this one longer than normal since I know many of their friends weren't able to make the trip to Dallas to see it in person. The footage turned out amazing and thank you both again!
