| "The Wedding Theater + theknot" |
|
Wow, what a great beginning to a new year. Already I can tell that 2010 is going to be even better than last year. We are upgrading our editing systems, we have a new headquarters, (more about that later) and now, as of yesterday, we are being listed with some of the best on theknot, the most popular website in the U.S. for Brides to Be! This was a goal of mine when we first started, as some of the first online wedding films I ever saw were from theknot, and know we have accomplished that. With that being said, The Wedding Theater is getting a ton more exposure with theknot so we are booking much faster than I expected for 2010. If you are thinking of having us film for your Wedding, please make contact ASAP to ensure your date gets reserved. We are already reserving well into 2011.
There are three ways to contact. The easiest is by sending a simple inquiry from over at the Contact Page. The second way is to give us call at 512-618-1819 anytime to chat on the phone about what you are looking for. The third is quite possibly the most exciting. We got a new studio!!! Complete with a Screening Room, our new studio is better than I could have ever asked for. It's in a beautiful part of Austin on Spicewood Springs Rd. in the heart of the Arboretum / Great Hills Area right in between 360 and Mopac. The address can be found on the contact page as well. Stop in during the day, have a cup of coffee, and say hello. We will be fully functional within a few weeks!
That's all for today. See ya soon! |

| "Welcome to 2010" |
|
2010? I really cannot get this down when writing the date. I keep putting 2009, and there's really no way to correct it once you put the first 200 so I just try to squeeze the 1 in between the two zero's!
The Wedding Theater has some new ventures on the horizon. Starting today, we are offering the "Rehearsal Dinner" add free of charge for the Feature and Documentary packages. That's a $300 dollar service for FREE! You will also notice, starting today we have a new Add-On service that comes standard with the Documentary package called "The Confessional." We setup a photo booth for your guests to come and leave VIDEO messages for you during the reception! These messages will be compiled into a mash-up on your final DVD and you will be able to go back years from now and re-watch their words of encouragement and well wishes from that fateful evening. We think this is going to be a hit with our clients and can't wait for the first time to use it!
BUT WAIT!!! THERE'S MORE!! Starting today, we are offering a new Essential Package. This package will give you option of choosing whether you want what we offer now which is in between 45-60 minutes on a DVD with partial coverage of the ceremony and reception, or a 10 minute documentary-styled web ready highlights with audio and music of your choosing. The new 10 minute documentary will be packed full of non-stop important moments throughout the evening. We understand that some people actually want less, but more exciting footage to watch and we are accommodating that. This new documentary will also be offered on the 3 included DVD's along with any other Add-On that you might choose to add.
I feel these three changes are going to be huge for The Wedding Theater and I hope they find you starting off the new year in style. |

| "Old Glory Ranch :: A Hill Country Wedding" |
|
During the summer month of July, we went down to Wimberly, TX to film a wedding for Lindsey and Jody Judson. They had planned their wedding at Old Glory Ranch. Tucked away in the hills west of San Marcos, and Southwest of Austin, this wedding venue is one of the best I have ever seen. Rustic but elegant, old and new, this was a perfect mixture of what I love about my job. The hardest part of editing this short reel was trying to decide between the different amazing subjects - there were so many.
They offer all sorts of different amenities and entertainment, along with an amazing array of food and drinks. The staff was the most professional I have worked with, and the owner and managers were there to make sure everything was perfect. You can choose a ceremony outdoors in a few different spots - one being on the banks of the Blanco river. The centerpiece of the whole ranch is Chapel Hall, (pictured above) "a flexible, multi-ethnic special event venue, complete with architectural antiques and state-of-the-art audio/visual system." You can choose to have a horse and carriage bring you to and from, fireworks to end the night, and everything in between. Old Glory Ranch is an amazing wedding venue, and to see more of it, just click on the Portfolio page and watch Lindsey+Jody : Old Glory Wedding Film (film was shot in SD.)

| "PLOphotography" |
|
| My good friend Paige is a photographer based out of Dallas with a company called PLOphotography. Her style of photo-journalism is top notch and her prices are even better, so if you like what we do with video, you will love what she does with stills. I've known her almost all my life. I know her as a person and as a professional, so when I say the way she shoots is the same way she lives her life, I mean it's 130% amazing. Jump over to her website and give her a shout to see if she can help you in any way. I know you won't be disappointed. |

| "Welcome to the New Blog" |
|
| Well, as you can probably tell, the website has some major improvements and is now functioning much closer to what I originally tried to create when designing it. First of all we have this great new blog! Here we can share specials, information for brides, photographers we like, and most importantly - Our newest films from the weddings we have just done! Thank you sooo much for visiting the site, and please let us know if there is anything at all we can do for you. We appreciate your referrals! |
