Couple & Party
Bride1: Alexis Glenn
BrideA: Carly Spehar
(Both wearing pants & vest)
Party Details: (Each side size, family details, etc.)
"Family is fully of surprises" – "Be on your toes"
"Everybody we love is going to be there" – Everyone there is important!
Alexis does not have a biological family in attendance, but her friends are her "framily" – they are important
Think David's "Allibi style" videography. film everyone's faces please! They want good video of the family!! Looking forward to good candid shots.
1st Surprise - The 4th toast/speech giver has planned a choreographed dance with the bridesmaids. The brides don't know about this.
2nd Surprise - The brides have picked out "walk up" music for the last 3 toast/speech givers. - The bridesmaids don't know about this.
3rd Surprise - Carly has arranged for a special dance for Alexis and her friends. Alexis doesn't know about this.
Letters/VO
Writing own vows
Exchanging weddingday gifts. Will probably be card or note.
Get audio of the notes they wrote.
Editing, Style & Composition Notes
Additional Audio from DJ
The very kind DJ sent us a recording of the audio from the speeches that he got straight from the board. Not sure if we'll need it but it is in the footage folder if needed
Editing & Composition
Good candids of guests and family are important, so let's make room for cocktail hour and/or open dance stuff maybe?
Ceremony is "very important"
Speeches are a highlight for sure, make sure we get some good stuff in the Feature from that.
"Anything that is happening so fast I might not remember it" they want featured.
Entrance into reception. First Dance.
Letters/VO
Writing own vows
Exchanging wedding day gifts. Will probably be card or note.
Wants to use audio of the notes they wrote.
Music Notes
Music
"Ecclectic" – but they like country. First dance is Dan & Shay ("You"). Likes country that tells stories.
Mentioned violins/strings a couple times.
Instrumental, Guitar, Strings.
Mood – "All of the above". Likes soft/sweet/fun/love/family, but after a certain time they're calling it "ratchet hour" / party time. Lively. So maybe start softer and sweeter and get exciting toward the end of the second song.

From another vendor:
One thing to note for Carly and Alexis' wedding (shhhhh, it's a surprise)....Anna, the last person to give a speech will be talking over a track she sent me and there will be a choreographed dance with friends. According to her email, this is how things will go.....
"-I will cue you for the music.
-I will talk up the post (:29), please keep it lower.
-During that :29 intro, lex’s teammates will be walking to the dance floor.
-The Pitches will dance for about :30, over the vocals.
-After their dance, there is instrumental out, I will jump in and talk that out.
1.5 minutes of our life. I should be the last toast. "
