Kismet!

Kismet! Brian & Tracy from Classic Filmworks on Vimeo.

Brian and Tracy never met while they attended the same college but were introduced later on and it was kismet. It was well worth forfeiting the $150 Brian had just paid for Match.com! Two years after their first meeting they tied the knot at the beautiful Los Willows in Fallbrook.

Chemistry x 2

Chemistry x 2 from Classic Filmworks on Vimeo.

There must have been chemistry when these two met in pharmacy school because now they are husband and wife! Not only do they love science but they love to travel and have been all over the world. They even had a game at their reception where the guests could vote for their honeymoon destination. You’ll have to watch the movie to find out where it will be, though!

An Ocean Apart

Valerie and Gil were literally an ocean apart when he met her on a vacation to the Philippines. Geography is no match for love though. After a long distance romance they closed the gap and were married in San Diego.

Midnight in Paris

We were so excited when Catherine called us about filming her wedding to Brian. We’ve known and worked with Catherine, who is a premiere wedding coordinator and stylist in San diego, for more than ten years. We were also delighted for Catherine to have found the love of her life! Brian proposed to her in Paris at midnight – it doesn’t get much more romantic than that. Standing in front of a candlelit fireplace at the Hotel Parisi they exchanged their vows. After that there was much laughter, fun, food and dancing!

A Poetic Wedding Story

Thad proposed to Viet in Maui with a poem and of course she said yes! Their unique wedding day was sprinkled with poetry, first written in their cards and gifts and later with their wedding vows.
The ceremony took place at The Marston House in San Diego and their reception was at The US Grant Hotel .
They had so many wonderful & creative touches at both the ceremony and reception. I especially liked the photo wall with their own photos and the handmade props. They also had a shave ice station, a lounge and a wonderful band to keep things going! They were such a fun couple and so in love!

Christmas Lights in Del Mar

Jessica and Taylor shared heartfelt romantic vows at Calvary Lutheran Church then headed over to Del Mar’s Turf Club for a fun filled wedding reception. We watched a gorgeous sunset and then the fairgrounds were lit up with thousands of Christmas lights! The evening ended with guests singing karaoke. What a memorable night!

A Vintage Schoolhouse

John and Nicole had a pretty garden wedding at The Twin Oaks Garden Estates in San Marcos. The century old schoolhouse served as the bride’s room and cocktail reception area while the ceremony took place in beautiful lush gardens outside. I love the true vintage quality of the place!
