Modern Day Wedding VideographyNot Your Parents Videographer

Before we get too deep into why its vitally important to work videography into your wedding day budget, perhaps we should clear up a few misconceptions. First and foremost, if the first image that comes to mind when you hear the word videography is some big sweaty guy with a massive shoulder-mount camera walking around with a spotlight and microphone, getting uncomfortably familiar with the inside of the personal space of you and your guests, I assure you, thats not how it is....anymore....at least its not how its supposed to be. Secondly, having a photographer does not automatically rule out the need for a videographer. While beautiful and great for hanging on your walls, a photo will not capture the moment by moment sights and sounds of a day that will almost always be recalled as little more than a huge blur (and thats not even taking alcohol into consideration!) And thirdly, videography is not this unbelievably and unjustifiably expensive service. In fact, the vast majority

of the time, a videographer will be a three-quarters to half the cost of a photographer of comparable skill and experience. And its not because videography takes less work; its about the same. So now that we got that all cleared up, lets talk about why its important to have a videographer at your wedding to capture your entire day, allowing you to relive every second of your special day in beautiful video and crisp audio for the rest of your life. Actually, I think maybe we already took care of that. What are you waiting for? Start e-stocking some videographers and checking out their beautiful wedding films and imagine yourself in them. Just about every couple that I meet with make one of two comments: a friend got a videographer and felt it was their best wedding investment, or they have a friend who didnt get a videographer and regrets that more than anything. Its not too late (or too early) to book a videographer for you wedding. Just make sure you do your research and compare apples to apples. And dont hire that big sweaty guy. Trust me.

Videography is not this unbelievably and unjustifiably

expensive service.



Photography is one of the most important investments a couple can make for their special day. As a former bride-to-be I completely understand the feeling of having to decide on what seems to be a million questions about your wedding day. Out of everything, the fun decisions seemed to be my dress, cake, and flowers. But then I thought about the day after our wedding the dress will get stored, the cake will be eaten, and the flowers tossed After all of the agonizing over those very big decisions, what are we really left with? We will be left with the photos that were captured on our day, and twenty years from now theyll be hanging from our walls and decorating the shelves of our furniture, being viewed by our children and grandchildren. Realizing this, it became very clear to us that making sure we had the right photographer had to be our number one priority and investment - we needed to find a photographer with the pro-fessionalism and style to not only capture our special day, but to help create lasting memories in beautifully photographed images. This is an important investment for every couple and can be pricey depending on what photographer you end up choosing, so it is key to decide on a budget for your photographer first before starting your search. However, this doesnt mean you should settle

for the cheapest price you can find in order to help fund your open bar. Because you may be left with poor quality photos and no drinks left. Try to find a happy middle area for cost that wont break your budget or leave you with photos that make you frown instead of smile. Although price is a big part of choosing a photographer, you also need to like the style in which your photographer shoots. A traditional photographer generally works off of a shot list, a carefully crafted list of poses, locations and looks to ensure that every detail of every shot is perfect. While on the other hand a photojournalistic photographer works more on capturing moments as they unfold rather than posing and positioning you and your bridal party for every single photo. Or, maybe you would like a photographer who can do both; a photographer that can do the traditional posed photos and also capture those candid special moments. Now go out and start looking! Remember to research price, shooting style, quality of work, and professionalism of a photographer. Like everything else about your special day, the decisions you make need to make you both happy, but not only that, they also should make you feel confident about the quality of the outcome when its all said and done. If you are able to find a good balance between all these factors, then you might have found yourself a photographer. And if thats the case, then book your date right away!

Interesting Wedding FactsYou may not know

In the United States, there is no law or religious dictate that says the bride must take the grooms last name. However, approximately 70% of Americans agree that a bride should change her last name.

In States where no blood tests or physical exams are required, failing to tell your prospective spouse that you have a venereal disease or a phys-ical impairment (such as impotence or infertili-ty) can void the marriage. Wedding rings are often placed on the third finger of the left hand because ancient Egyp-tians believed the vein in that hand (which the Romans called the vein of love) ran directly to the heart.

The brides veil traditionally symbolized her youth and virginity. Veils also hid the bride from jealous spirits or the Evil Eye. In the past, veils could be red, blue or yellow (the color of Hy-men, the Greek god of marriage). The modern white veil became popular during the Victorian era as a symbol of purity and modesty. A white veil also connoted that a bride was wealthy enough to wear white.

In many cultures, the groom historically often kidnapped the bride, and the grooms friends would help him, leading to the modern-day groomsmen. At the alter, the groom always stood on the brides right side so his right handor his sword handwould be free to fight/defend a jealous rival.

Throwing rice at weddings symbolizes fertility, prosperity, and bounty. In some countries, the bride might even carry or wear sheaves of grain. However, many modern churches and wedding locations discourage rice throwing because rice can be fatal for birds who eat it.

Guests in ancient times would tear off part of the brides gown as tokens of good luck, leading to the tradition of the bride throwing both her garter and her bouquet.

A wedding cake is traditionally a symbol of good luck and fertility and has been a part of wedding celebrations since Roman times, when a small bun, symbolizing fertility, was broken above the brides head at the close of the ceremony. During the Middle Ages, custom required the bride and groom to kiss over small cakes.

The phrase tying the knot initially came from an ancient Babylonian custom in which threads from the clothes of both the bride and bridegroom were tied in a knot to symbolize the couples union. Literally tying some type of ceremonial knot at a wedding ceremony can be found across cultures.

In some African ceremonies, it was a sentiment of well wishing to greet the new bride with the words: May you bear 12 children with him.A bride is traditionally carried over the threshold either to symbolize her reluctance to leave her fathers home or because evil spirits hovered over the threshold of a houseso she was lifted over the entrance to protect her from the spirits.Pope Innocent III (1160/1-1216) declared that a waiting period should be observed between betrothal and marriage, which led to separate engagement and wedding rings. The first record-ed account of a diamond engagement ring was in 1477 when King Maximilian I of Germany (1459-1519) proposed to Mary of Burgundy (1457-1482) and offered her a diamond to seal his vow.

During Biblical times, shoes were seen as a badge of authority because they lifted a person off the ground, differentiating them from barefoot slaves and serfs. They were used to seal a bargain and fathers would give his son-in-law a pair on the wedding day as symbol of transferring authority.In Great Britain, it was considered good luck for the bride to kiss a chimney sweep on her wedding day. He supposedly had special powers, and when he cleans the chimney, he also sweeps away evil spirits.

A morganatic marriage is a union of a person of royal blood with one of inferior rank. Such a marriage is called a left-hand marriage because at the wedding ceremony, the husband holds the brides hand with his right hand with his left hand. Though these marriages are recognized by the church, the father cannot confer on their children his rank or property.


Stay Local l Buy Local l (559) 472-7182In Afghanistan, a man who wanted to marry a woman would cut off a lock of her hair or throw a sheet over her and proclaim her his bride.The Ozark people located in central America believed placing the dried tongue of a turtle dove in a loved ones house would persuade him or her to marry.

Bedouin girls will often begin to sew their wed-ding dresses when they turn nine years old and so that they will finish their gown before they marry at the age of fourteen or fifteen.

All over the world, there is a long tradition of mock battles to keep the groom away from the bride on their wedding day. For example, in Thailand, a groom often will find the entrance of the brides house roped off until he offers money to get through. In some nomadic tribes in Cen-tral Asia, a groom and his party would pursue his bride on horsebackas she was riding away carrying a newly slaughtered lamb.

Puritans banned wedding rings because they thought they were frivolous jewelry or relics of Popery.

In many countries, a yellow wedding dress has traditionally been seen as a sign of a wifes inten-tion to cheat on her husband or of jealousy.

Much like the modern tradition of feeding wedding cake to ones spouse, in ancient Rome, couples pledged their unity by sharing food. Today a Japanese bride and groom drink sake together, Jewish couples drink from the same cup of consecrated wine, and Muslim couples eat from the same piece of candy.

Greek brides believed that tucking a lump of sugar into the wedding gown would bring sweet-ness throughout married life.

To ensure fertility, the Irish would take a hen that was about to lay an egg and tie it to the wedding bed.

Because ducks mate for life, a Korean groom will ask a happily married friend to make him two small wooden ducks for his new household.

Oriental wedding dresses often display embroi-dered cranes, which are symbols of life-long fidelity. At Japanese weddings, the presence of 1001 white paper origami cranes is considered good luck.

In Egypt, women will pinch the bride to bring good luck to those who pinched her.

InIndia, it is considered a form of protection and luck to be symbolically married to a tree.

Some tribes in central Asia held that a brides hymen should be broken not by her husband, but by her maternal grandfather. If he was not willing or alive, a cousin from her mothers side was responsible to perform the task.

Members of the Inuit-Yupik community (col-loquially known as Eskimos) were required to bring their brides to a priest for divine unflow-ering.

In Europe during the Middle Ages, the lord of the manor had a legal right to spend the first night with any non-noble bride on his land (le droit du seigneur or right of the lord).

An average wedding in the United States has 175 guests.

After a Jewish wedding, the groom stomps on a glass which is wrapped in a cloth while people clap and shout congratulations (Mazel tov!). The broken glass symbolizes the frailty of human happiness or perhaps the destruction of the Isra-elite temple in A.D. 70. Some Jewish husbands argue that it means they will have the authority in the house or that shattered glass symbolizes the easing of sexual penetration on the first night of marriage.

In Jewish weddings, if the bride is the last mar-riageable daughter in her family, her mother is crowned with a wreath of leaves (akrenzel) and family and friends dance around her.

In Siberia, it is believed that it is a sin to remain single and that the soul of a bachelor becomes adzheretinnik(heretic) that remains on the earth to scare the living.

In Ethiopia, women from certain tribes place plates in their lower lip in order to entice a rich groom. The larger the protruding lip, the more a groom will pay.

In many societies, families save money to cover wedding expenses the same way Americans save money to cover a childs college education. Many parents start saving money as soon as a daughter is born.

In many Muslim countries and parts of Greece, the groom is expected to show the virginal blood on the sheets the morning after the wedding. The couples family is waiting outside to ensure the bride was a virgin and the husband was virile.

Some scholars claim the word honeymoon comes from the Teutonic custom when new-lyweds would hide out and drink hydromel (a fermented honey and water mixture) for 30 days until the moon waned.

Green is typically not worn at Scottish weddings because it is the color of fairies and an omen of revenge. It is considered unlucky to even eat green vegetables at a wedding.

In the U.S., Firemans Fund Insurance Company offers wedding insurance, which can cover any retaking of photographs, wedding attire or wed-ding gift replacements, and public liability.

More than 40% of couples now plan their weddings together, and three out of four grooms help select items for their wedding gift registries.Seventy-five percent of engaged couples in the United States pay for some or all of their own wedding.

In Mediterranean countries, Jordan almonds are given to guests at a wedding to represent the bitter and the sweet sides of marriage.

The top 10 First Dance songs in the U.S. include The Way You LookTonight, Just the Way You Are, Come Away with Me, Unfor-gettable, WonderfulTonight, From This Moment On, This I Promise You, Thank You For Loving Me, Dont Want to Miss a Thing, and All I Ask of You.

Permission to Explore AlternativesWe all remember the song. The shin bones connected to the thigh bone. The thigh bones connected to the hip bone. The human body is a complex struc-ture filled with many connected organs and tissues. Ensuring good health in each of those parts and pieces can prove to be a daunting task at times. Implementing all natural, drug-free options to care for these precious body parts makes health and overall well-being accessible and obtainable. Few body structures have more influ-ence over your overall health than your central nervous system. And few body systems have more impact on your central nervous system than the craniosacral system. The craniosacral system is the soft tissues and fluid that protect your brain and spinal cord, which is ground zero for nerve endings. CranioSacral Therapy releases tensions within the central nervous system, allowing our bodies to self-correct and relax. Freeing restrictions in the central nervous system naturally eliminates pain, reduces stress, strengthens your resistance to disease, and enhances your overall well-being.

CranioSacral Therapy assists people to release both physical pains as well as emo-tional pains and traumas. Since all systems in our bodies are interconnected and interrelated, our physical and emotional pains often heal simultaneously. Even when we are not aware of the connection between our physical and emotional sides, our body recognizes the link. Memories that have been stored at a cellular level can be released, restoring our bodies and souls back to equilibrium and health. CranioSacral Therapy normally takes place in a quiet, private setting while you recline on a padded table. You remain fully clothed and conscious during the session. The therapist uses a light touch approach normal-ly not more than the weight of a nickel on your body to monitor the rhythm of the fluid that surrounds and nourishes your central nervous system. While some people easily feel the energy releases in their body during a session, others feel just an overall sense of peace and

grounding. A CranioSacral session can also be enhanced with the use of therapeutic-grade essential oils. Since the sense of smell goes straight to the emotional center of the brain, essential oils

often prompt healings that may have remained elusive during other treatment options. Essential oils have also been shown to impact our physical bodies by strengthening the immune system, eliminating viruses and bacteria, reducing inflammation, and increasing the level of oxygen in the blood. Other studies have shown essential oils can reduce pain, heal skin, release toxins from organs, increase metab-olism, and even help you sleep. They can also be used as insect repellent, deodorizers, perfume, and flavor your water. There are a wide variety of uses, all of which promote good health and well-being. Therapeu-

tic-grade essential oils are the primary compo-nent of the Raindrop Technique. Originating from traditions of the Native American Lakota tribe, the Raindrop Technique has been shown to remove toxins from the nerve endings along the spine. By clearing the waste from the nerves, regeneration and healing can begin. The foundation of the Raindrop Technique in-cludes nine essential oils applied to the vitaflex points on the bottom of both feet as well as the spinal column. Other oils are often added to address individual needs. Why do people receive CranioSacral Therapy? The number one reason is, Ive tried everything, and nothing has worked. I still feel awful. The second most popular response is, I am not really sick, but I dont feel healthy either. I want to be truly healthy. If either of these reasons sounds like they came out of your own mouth, call me. Let CranioSacral Therapy, Raindrop Technique, and therapeutic-grade es-sential oils connect all of your parts and pieces into a happy and healthy bundle of YOU!

CranioSacral Therapy... releases both physical pains, emotional pains and traumas
