Bear Brook Valley Wedding Video: Michelle & Ryan

“When looking for a videographer, my husband and I wanted our video to be professional, classic, and something we would enjoy watching for years to come. Once we saw Greg and Dierdra's work, we knew that was the exact aesthetic we were looking for. All of their work is stunning and really captures the emotions of the day. My first phone call with Greg was so pleasant. He was kind, enthusiastic, and thoroughly explained what we could expect on the day of if we were to book with them. After seeing their work and speaking with Greg on the phone, it was an easy decision for us to move forward with booking them. Greg and Dierdra were incredibly professional throughout our entire day. We had a lot of moving parts and strong personalities surrounding us, and they were calm and professional with smiles on their faces all day. Our sneak peak, cinematic highlight, and full length film were all delivered within the promised time frame and exceeded our expectations. Greg and Dierdra produced a video that will help us relive our perfect day for years to come, and we are truly so thankful!” - Michelle & Ryan Google Review

This Video Was Filmed & Edited By Lorenzo Media Productions

Michelle and Ryan had so many beautiful moments on their wedding day. My husband, Greg, and I are so honored to have captured these once in a lifetime moments on video. After reading Michelle and Ryan’s review of Lorenzo Media Productions it seems like they are over the moon with our services and we couldn’t be happier for them! They were such a great couple to work with.

The wedding day took place in Fredon Township, NJ at the gorgeous wedding venue, Bear Brook Valley. This new jersey wedding venue has a stunning bridal suite. The room has so many windows which is great for lighting purposes and an amazing view of the outdoor ceremony, lake and all! Now, I have to admit, most brides want their hair down for the photos and video however, Michelle was our first bride ever to have her hair in a pony tail for her wedding! When the hairstylist and makeup artist were finished, Michelle sat up from her chair and walked into the main room of the bridal suit surprising everyone! She looked absolutely stunning! Her beauty radiates throughout her cinematic highlight video that you can view right here on this page. :)

From there Michelle and her bridesmaids popped champagne to celebrate her special day. Then, she scooted everyone out of the room for her intimate note read. “These past three years have been the best years of my life...for the longest time I always thought I knew what I wanted in my counterpart until I met you…you have been everything I’ve always dreamed of and so much more…you’ve shown me so much love over these years and have supported my unconditionally, that I can’t wait to make you my wife.”

It’s times like these where I, as a videographer, take a second and realize just how precious my job really is. I’m documenting beautiful words spoken that will never be spoken again after their wedding day. - uyy, I’m such a moosh tearing up as I write this. Okay…just getting myself together so I can tell you about the rest of the day.

They decided to do a first look so we took them towards the bridge to set the mood for a romantic scene. Ryan was definitely in awe of Michelle when he turned around to look at his beautiful bride…and guess what? Not only did we capture that on film, but Greg always mic’s up our grooms to get their reaction and the words spoken during the big reveal. But we’ll save the audio for the couple to listen to on their own in a more intimate setting. That way they can cry and not me this time… :)

There were so many scenic locations for photos and video at Bear Brook Valley. We started at the rustic swing hidden in the back of the venue. Only the pros know where to find it! We love incorporating this into their wedding film, it’s a must every time. The sun was peaking through the trees as Ryan pushed Michelle back and forth on the swing. A great way to create motion for the videographer!

After that, Michelle walked down the aisle with a beautiful sunset behind her and they both exchanged their vows. Then it was on to the party where they danced the night away with the bridal party, friends, and family!

Congratulations Michelle & Ryan! Wishing you all the best!!

Is Hiring a Wedding Videographer a Must?

I would say it’s a 100% must.

If you think that having both wedding photos and video is a bit excessive, or you may not want to put videography at the top of your “must have vendor list” for the simple reason that it does not fit into your budget then believe me — I’m here to tell you… You Will Want To Hire A Wedding Videographer. On the day of your wedding the time literally flies by and there are so many moments you will miss out on that your videographer will gracefully capture, like seeing your parents or grandparents reaction to you in your wedding dress or the emotions you and your future hubby will have saying your vows to each other. Also, you have to think about the sounds that can’t be captured in a photo, like your note reads, I dos, reception music, and let’s not forget about the special toasts that have been prepared for you.

Lorenzo Media Productions Filmed and Edited This Cinematic Wedding Video

Take a look at what our brides and grooms had to say about their experience hiring Lorenzo Media Productions as their wedding videographers. Check out our reviews from The Knot!

“After working with Greg and Dierdra at my sister-in-law's wedding, I knew I wanted them for my own as well. They are incredibly professional, yet loads of fun to work with. They are attentive and have an impeccable eye for detail. The quality of the video, as well as the style is incomparable to any other video from a wedding videographer I have ever seen. I would recommend Lorenzo Media Productions a hundred times over! They are the type of people you want to maintain a relationship afterwards and hang out, and that was important to my husband and I. You want people who feel like family and take you as serious as family, not just a client or number.” — Krissy

“Greg and Dierdra did an amazing job throughout the entire process. They captured all of the best moments of our wedding day and the final product is more than just a wedding video - it is a movie about us and our love for each other. Greg and Dierdra also incorporated cutting edge technology with the use of a drone - the footage that came from the drone is amazing and some of our favorite. We got our video back not too long ago and have already lost track of the number of times we've watched it ourselves, not to mention the multiple viewing parties we've hosted for family and friends. Another plus is that our video is available digitally to be shared with our out-of-town family and friends. Each time we watch our wedding video, we are transported back to the feeling of overwhelming love and joy we experienced on our wedding day. Greg and Dierdra, thank you so much for capturing our wedding so beautifully and allowing us to re-live the magic of that day over and over again with every viewing.” — Katy

“We only have the BEST things to say about Greg & Dierdra! Not only are they talented, but professional too! They truly are the BEST in the business, we are so happy we chose to work with them. Our sneak peek was amazing, and we can't wait to see the entire video! It was an absolute pleasure to have them apart of our big day!” — Nicolette
