I don’t know about you, but I LOVED today’s wedding, and I’m so happy to share Mareli and Grant’s video from Vision on Fire this afternoon. You can see all the colour of their creative decor, all the feeling of their ceremony and speeches, and how much fun they were having with their guests. Thanks so much to Ian for allowing me to share this!

Just a little while earlier we featured Claire and Andrew’s elegant bush wedding, and I’m so excited to share their video with you now as well. I think it gives you a great sense of the incredible bushveld scenery (goosebumps!), love and fun of the day – and just what an awesome time all of us guests had! Such a special celebration. There’s even a very quick cameo from me, so see if you can spot it!
Big thanks to Silent Video Productions for allowing me to share their lovely work!

I promised you more of today’s lovely wedding, and here it is! Kate and Christian’s fabulous brunch wedding at La Colombe, Constantia Uitsig was filmed by the awesome Storyboard Productions – I just love the sweet, upbeat tone of the whole film, and that scrumptious morning light! It’s almost enough to drag more brides out of bed for a morning start, isn’t it?

With the world premiere of Twilight: New Moon and a certain hotly anticipated forest wedding last night, I thought it was a good time to revisit one of my favourite weddings so far this year. Grant & Libby’s day was full of incredible, thoughtful, personal details (check out their full wedding post here) but it all started with the loveliest forest ceremony. When Peter Mann of Just Shoot Me sent over their highlights reel, I couldn’t help but share a second look!

Happy Friday lovelies! I’m very excited to have a guest post (and a beautiful video!) this week from one of my favourite Cape Town videographers, Andrew Alexander (of Alexander Productions). Now I have to admit, if you’d asked me a couple of years ago, I would have told you that wedding video was pretty low down on my list of things a couple should spend their money on. That is, until my lovely friends Lenore and Adrian tied the knot. I couldn’t be there, which sucked, but a couple of months later I got a little package in the post with a DVD of their big day. Exciting! And ok, it wasn’t the same as being there, but I really did get to feel like I came close. As insanely gorgeous as photographs are, you get something quite different from a moving image, and nowadays videos are so far beyond what used to be available. In fact, many of our real brides here on Cap Classique mention this as something they either wish they’d invested in, or something they’re so glad they did, so it’s definitely worth giving a second thought. Over to Andrew…

Your wedding memories, all you’ll have left…
Your wedding day will probably be the one day of your life where you will exert the most effort and time management. Today the average couple spends anything from 10 to 15 months planning their wedding. When the day finally arrives, those eight or so hours fly by so quickly that it feels like it has not even begun by the time it is over. As a very recently married man myself, I promise you those eight hours are the best hours of your life. So how do you preserve these special hours and give them the justice they deserve?
Photography is extremely important and always will be vital to conjure up those special memories, but I can promise you that almost all photographers (definitely those who’ve got married themselves) will agree with me that photographs are simply unable to bring memories and moments to life the same way moving visuals and sound are able to do.

I’m sure you all will remember Melissa & Arnold‘s AMAZING wedding, which I featured last week. Well, I have an extra special little treat for you this avie! Videographer Wynand van Wyk was on hand to capture all the atmosphere of this extra special carnival-themed wedding, and he sent over this piece of eye candy for us to ooh and aah over! Read more
