Wedding Mondays

Happy Wedding Mondays and almost slightly more importantly – happy March! It’s my birthday month and this year I’m celebrating it in my new home. I’m also jetting off to San Diego to celebrate with my best friend. As always, the birthday never really does stay contained for one day. I used to have a handful wedding videos in my queue ready for whenever Monday came around, but I’m not sure if the popularity of wedding videos has diminished or if my favorite blogs just are featuring them less. I somehow always manage to find one just the night before. I know Ashley and Jennie wouldn’t be too pleased with me if I had skimped out on a Monday.

The video above from Veronica and Shawn’s wedding is an absolute dream. When  I first saw that it was 9 minutes, I was hesitant. Ain’t nobody got time for that! To my surprise, I ended up watching the entire thing from start to finish. Worth it. The first half was split up into the “getting ready” and the ceremony while the last half was the entire dance party. Whenever I give advice about weddings, I usually tell people that you could do away without a photographer for the dance party. Why? Because people don’t tend to look so hot when they are in motion and dancing. Overall, it just makes for an unflattering photograph. I do, however, support videographers at the dance party. This is, by far, the best example. Look at how much fun everyone is having. Don’t you want to BE at this weeding? Don’t you want these guests to be your friends? The answer is just “yes” to all of those questions.
