Tun & Brent – 1.15.11

A couple of weeks after their first wedding celebration in Thailand, Tun and Brent enjoyed another wedding and reception at Crowne Plaza at Historic Union Station. We captured their first meeting and then lots of photos with Natalie and Tim of Twistedfrog Photography.

Tun and Brent had a very intimate ceremony by candlelight in one of the Grand Hall’s alcoves. Thai handcrafted candles were used instead of traditional placecards, and we loved how the Grand Hall started to light up as guests brought the candles to their seats for the reception.

Julie Acheson of Royal Creations, who provided the lovely floral decor, referred this beautiful couple to us. Jason Fritz of Pro-Sound Entertainment presided over the remainder of the evening’s festivities.

Congratulations Tun and Brent!

Becca & Dan – 12.11.10

Becca and Dan’s rehearsal dinner at Maggiano’s was a casual affair celebrating not only their union the next day but also Becca’s birthday. On the wedding day at Carmel Lutheran Church, Kirsten Wray captured some particularly fun shots inside the sanctuary, with the holiday decor adding an extra festive flair. We especially loved Dan’s emotional reaction to seeing Becca walk down the aisle.

The reception followed at Marriott North, and the ballroom looked stunning thanks to decor by McNamara Florist. Wedding Entertainment Director, Jim Cerone, presided over the formalities and delivered one of the most packed dance floors from beginning to end that we’ve ever seen. (Thanks so much for the referral, Jim!)

All in all, this wedding was a fabulous way to end our 2010 shoots, and we wish Becca and Dan a lifetime of love and happiness. Cheers!

IndyVisual was recently honored to win three ISES PACE Awards at the totally tubular 80’s prom-themed gala attended by Indiana’s top event professionals.  Our winning categories were Best Videography for Asha & Tyrone’s epic wedding in St. Lucia, Best Team Effort ($75K-200K) for “An Affair to Remember,” and Best Team Effort (Over $200K) for “Monet’s Canvas.”

In all, ten of the awards handed out were for events that we filmed.  “Monet’s Canvas” also picked up trophies for Best Catered Event (Over $25K), Best Marketing/Design Collateral (Over $25K) and Best Wedding (Over $200K).  “An Affair to Remember” scored additional wins for Best Corporate Event ($75-200K) and Best Event Design/Decor ($25-75K).  The other award-winning events we filmed were “Secret Garden” and “Come Rain, Shine or Darkness,” which won for Best Wedding ($75-200K) and Most Creative Solution respectively.

Of course the biggest honor was simply the privilege of being a common thread in such a wide variety of amazing events.  It seemed that whenever there was an award-worthy event in 2010, we were entrusted to film it.  Special thanks to the many incredible talents who referred these events to us, and who generously acknowledged us in their speeches.  Overall it was a fantastic night filled with fun, food, dancing and great friends…not to mention a LOT of Madonna clones.

Charlotte and David had a gorgeous wedding ceremony and reception at the Omni Severin Hotel. For this couple, the start of their vows said it all. “God has given us a second chance at happiness.”

It was so nice to see a ceremony in the original lobby, and we enjoyed capturing their first meeting on the staircase with photographers Stefanie and Brock of SB Childs Photography. The bride’s friend, Paula Buckhaulter, did a great job with coordination, and the flowers from Kathy’s Kloset were a lovely addition to the decor.

Congratulations Charlotte and David, and thanks for letting us capture your special day!

Kelsey and Peter’s ceremony took place on the first floor of the Columbia Club followed by a reception in the 10th Floor Ballroom. We started the day capturing the couple getting photos taken by photographer Kiera Dubach.

The flowers for the ceremony and reception were beautiful thanks to JP Parker Flowers. As always, guests enjoyed dancing to the music provided by Jim Cerone (thanks for the referral Jim!) and posing for fun pictures in the booth from Indy Photo Booths. The reception highlight was a beautiful serenade by the bride to the groom.

Best wishes Kelsey and Peter!

Lindsay and Adam’s wedding ceremony and reception took place at the Mavris Arts & Event Center. The Mavris looked very cool as always, and there were some lovely floral touches by An Affair with Flair.

We loved how instead of cutting the cake, the couple had a “first scoop” of ice cream. It was nice to meet and work with photographer Justin Evans, and we certainly appreciate the referral from Jen McKaig of the Crowne Plaza.

Congratulations Lindsay and Adam! Best wishes for a lifetime of love!

Meaghan and Andrew had their wedding ceremony and reception at Crowne Plaza at Historic Union Station. We started the day by filming their preparations as well as the adorable moment when they saw each other for the first time. Then, more photos followed with photographer Abby Veldman.

The Grand Hall looked amazing, featuring decor by Circle City  Planners and Circle City Designers, a cake by A Slice of Heaven Cakery and lighting by DJ Brian Whitis.

Tess and Thomas tied the knot in Tiler’s room at the Scottish Rite Cathedral.

We captured the couple’s “first look” indoors with photographer Andrew Scalini, and we also went outside for beautiful shots of the bride and groom.

Best wishes Tess and Tom. Here’s to a lifetime of love and happiness!
