Wedding video of Evgeniy and Natalia

Themed weddings are becoming increasingly popular in Moscow. Evgeniy and Natalya decided to have an “Orange Wedding,” thereby adding a bright accent to the April nature. An orange car, a bride’s bouquet and garter, the famous “orange tie” and orange details in the guests’ wardrobe, decorations in the banquet hall and even an orange cake. And since our newlyweds are cheerful guys, they took roller skates with them for their wedding walk. And even if it’s raining and slush outside, the Frunzensky Bridge is dry and warm. You can go roller skating, test your strength in holding your loved ones in your arms, drink champagne in the car and have a beautiful photo shoot in the interiors of the Chertanovsky registry office. And at the banquet, surprise guests with a beautiful staged wedding dance, a creative Hawaiian tradition and funny competitions of a skillful toastmaster.

Where to conduct on-site registration: popular places - estate, forest, beach

The first question that young people ask when planning a ceremony is, of course, the location. Since the couple’s choice is not limited by anything other than the budget of the future wedding and personal preferences, you can let your imagination run wild .

Unusual ceremonies are held underwater with scuba gear, during a parachute jump, on the roof of a skyscraper or in a hot air balloon

But most often this option is suitable for those who are celebrating a celebration with just the two of them , without guests. Also, couples who want to hold the ceremony without unnecessary witnesses decide to celebrate the celebration abroad. Fortunately, in almost all countries there are options for weddings, both official and symbolic.

The rest, as a rule, plan a celebration on solid ground, without extreme frills. The first option, especially for a wedding in the warm season, is a celebration in nature.

Field registration of marriage in nature

For example, in a park or on the territory of an ancient estate or palace. However, the charm of wild nature has not been canceled , so some couples choose a ceremony in the forest or on the beach. Even in the cold season, you can choose the option of an estate and a park, but you need to think about where to seat guests warmly at the festive table.

Restaurants and cafes also offer services for holding wedding celebrations, where you can book both a table and an entire hall for a buffet table. But it is important to remember that banquet halls are designed for a certain number of people, and in order not to overpay for renting the premises, you need to create a guest list .

Of course, there is always the option to celebrate at home. If the young people do not want a particularly magnificent celebration, but a modest celebration in a narrow circle of those closest to them . This option is possible if one of the young people is seriously ill and cannot leave home. Then the registry offices allow official registration in the house, as a special case.

There are other sites for holding the ceremony - a field, a summer veranda in a park, a motor ship during a cruise on a river or sea

When choosing, you need to be guided by the fact that there should be enough space for guests, chairs and all the decorations. Also, in case of rain, you need to come up with shelter from bad weather .

The videographer captures the beauty of the country estate, the newlyweds' luxurious car, a delightful dance and a wonderful wedding cake, but nothing can overshadow the beauty of the happy faces of the newly-made husband and wife. The video clip of the classic wedding turned out amazing.

Decoration with garlands

The easiest way to create homemade garlands is to use threads and colored paper

. For this you will also need a sewing machine. Such garlands look very stylish, especially in large quantities, despite the simplicity of their material and ease of manufacture.

Cut out circles of different sizes from colored paper.

Then, using a sewing machine, sew the circles of paper so that they are connected into one long garland

. In this case, you can leave a small distance between the circles.

You can make entire compositions from these garlands and decorate your wedding hall with them.

Wedding video of Elena and Ilya.

The wedding of Elena and Ilya can be called a classic - a fun bride price with dressing up and riddles, a chic white limousine at the young man’s house, a traditional ceremony in the registry office, car rides around the city in the company of close friends, a meeting with the parents of the young couple with bread and salt and, finally, a fun feast in a restaurant. Skeptics and lovers of creativity can be advised to watch this video and make sure that traditions are not boring, but fun and very beautiful. Thanks to such shots, you understand that there are no greater values in life than family and love.

Exit registration: attention to detail

What the ceremony venue will look like is almost half the success. Everything needs to be thought out to the smallest detail, in the same style.

It’s better not to waste time on designing the site - it will be worth the effort

At the exit registration site there should be a wedding arch or tent, seats for guests and a small table with drinks. It is also better to stock up on umbrellas and blankets for guests in case of sudden weather changes.

Decoration of a destination wedding in rustic style

As an example of decor, consider a rustic wedding - very popular for an outdoor ceremony. This style implies simplicity, naturalness and comfort, which allows you to significantly reduce decor costs without buying expensive fabrics and accessories. When decorating a place, you can use, conditionally, things from your grandmother’s chest, focusing on vintage and antique things. The use of natural materials is encouraged : wood, linen, burlap, cotton. The color scheme for such a ceremony is Marsala, green, blue, beige.

Instead of chairs, you can put wooden benches or even hemp. For decoration, hay stacks or pressed cubes are used. Flowers are exclusively wild flowers, instead of vases there are bottles, jars or even watering cans. The arch should also be wooden, decorated with simple fabric and flowers.

Decoration with flowers is an important aspect; flower arrangements are selected depending on the wedding style

Wedding video of Irina and Vitaly.

A wedding is a conscious step in the life of Irina and Vitaly. The young people decided to seal the bonds of marriage as a sign of love and harmony. On an important day for themselves, they invited relatives and friends to share with them the joy and happiness of what was happening. With excitement and cheerful enthusiasm, the young compete with each other in an effort to be the head of the family - they try to bite off a larger piece of the loaf and win the competition. The clip shows that the guests are not far behind the newlyweds - they are desperately fighting for the garter and the bride's bouquet. The video shooting turned out to be fun and playful - a great memory for the newly-made husband and wife.

No worse than the pros: 5 important tips for shooting

Good wedding videos have an impeccable and stylish picture. By filming “at random,” you risk creating the equivalent of what is ridiculed in the film “Bitter!” This does not mean that without the help of professionals you will not get a beautiful result - just take these points into account when shooting.

1. Make a list of “obligatory” shots - exchange of rings, painting, congratulations from parents - the most significant moments should not be missed.
2. Shoot with multiple cameras. Pre-mount one on a tripod so that you can shoot a static general shot (especially useful during the ceremony), entrust the second to a volunteer who will be ready to spend the holiday behind the lens.
3. The operator must follow the composition, the horizon must always be straight. It is necessary to make plans of different sizes. General - for showing guests, dancing, medium - for congratulations and competitions, large - for demonstrating the most striking details and emotions.
4. The length of the film is limited - do not allow “empty frames”. There is no need to film guests eating, or boring and unremarkable speeches wishing them health and happiness. The frame must contain interesting and original actions and events, expressive emotions.
5. If you want to insert into the film a recording of the wedding and the exchange of “vows”, the voice of the host, wishes from friends and close relatives, make sure you have an external microphone.

For long scenes, be sure to mount your camera on a tripod

What you will need

An arch, it is decorated with anything - beautiful fabric, flowers, balloons. They are often ordered for a celebration style, for example, for a “Rustic” theme, an attribute decorated with tree branches is suitable, and for a “Boho” theme – with ethnic elements. Any arch shape is also possible - round, square, in the form of a door, gate, heart, and so on.
Table for young people's paintings.
Chairs for guests. They are usually decorated with fabric and tied with large bows.
If you want to decorate the path to the arch, then use rose petals, a carpet or a wide canvas.
The presenter, who will appear as a marriage registrar.
Music. An orchestra, musicians or a DJ are often invited. Don't forget to allocate enough space for them.
Flowers and other decorative elements of the exit area.
Solemn vows of the bride and groom. You can write them yourself or order them. It is better to rehearse your speech in advance so as not to stumble and pronounce it clearly.
A mobile canopy or gazebo, in case of bad weather, which will save the newlyweds from the rain.
