Would you think of getting all of your guests involved in your first dance?

If romanticism could be epitomised, I think this guy would be up there.
He methodically (over a year) fished for details about what his fiancé’s perfect wedding would be and put it all together without her realising.
She genuinely had no idea what was going on. I’ll shut up and let you watch it. Get the tissues ready
What are your thoughts? Would you enjoy that or would you like to be in full control?

Would you say anything if this guy was DJing at your wedding?

Never one to be a shrinking Violet, Katie’s holiday snaps were ‘leaked’ to the National Press this week showing the happy couple smiling and posing in front of the camera. Her gaudy bright-red ring is showing in every single shot.
Katie and Leandro met at Elton Johns Oscar bash last season and have become inseparable albeit the age gap and Leandro’s lack of english.
In April, she took to Twitter declaring ‘I am in love with Leandro’.
Is it going to be third time lucky after her previous two divorces from Peter Andre and Alex Reid?
Let us know your thoughts?

Todays blog was very enjoyable as we looooove films (fact) here at MWV HQ.
We are predominantly film makers and we try to portray a certain cinematic quality to all of our videos, concentrating on the cinematography and mise en scene.
Our ideas and inspirations have been inspired by hours and hours of watching films.
This week I decided to let you in to my top ten ‘best wedding moments’ in film.
You may or may not agree with me on the list and I would love you to comment on the bottom with your thoughts.
No.10 The Graduate (1967)
This is a wonderful wedding scene with a great twist as Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft run away in to the sunset. I think a lot of grooms have a worrying thought about something like this happening during the pregnant pause after the priest has said: ‘If anyone knows of any reason…’
9. Waynes World 2 (1993)
How many of you were thinking of this scene when watching the scene above? A great spoof – a real ‘laugh out loud’ wedding moment.
8. My Best Friends Wedding (1997)
I must admit to being a lousy romantic, but this final scene in My Best Friend’s wedding makes me wish I was a better one. George (Rupert Everett) is waxing lyrical on the phone to Julianne (Julia Roberts) and his banter is gentle, warm and witty. I don’t know how long it’d be before I cracked to make a joke about the size of the mobiles…
7. Beetlejuice (1988)
This is one of the most eye-catching and creative wedding scenes of modern times. Stars like Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis all in one scene together creates wonderful, surreal feel. And how brides would love to be able to get in to their wedding dress as easy as that, eh?! “Daylight come and me wanna go home!”
6. Love Actually (2003)
Even being an unromantic male (see above) I love the idea of this wedding day surprise. Fantastic tune and great singing (although I would have preferred the garage classic Forgive Me by Lynden David Hall).
5. The Freaks (1932)
Although this film is not seen as particularly PC these days, I just wanna say one thing: How great would it be to film this wedding as a Music Wedding Video?What a fantastic, fun yet uneasy scene to watch. A great mix between the mad and the brilliant!
4. Four Weddings and a Funeral
Priests, oh crazy priests! It’s soooooo uncool to get your partner’s name wrong at the altar, yet it’s sooooo funny if the priest does it. Probably the funniest British wedding scene in history, brilliantly played by Rowan Atkinson and obviously starring Hugh errrrrrr Grant.
3. Father of The Bride (1991)
Brilliant monologue played out by the brilliant Steve Martin. After having a baby girl recently, this resonates deeper with me now than before. I can imagine it also does with a huge number of fathers out there on their daughter’s big day (no matter how tough they are!).
2. Bridesmaids (2011)
A contemporary comedy wedding film that I found funny in parts. I quite like this scene because it shows that it is not just the lads that can make complete fools of themselves at weddings. Woohoo!
1. Wedding Crashers (2005)
Excellent montage scene capturing the fun, frolics and feeling of numerous weddings. I could have easily picked out a number of scenes but was struggling to keep it clean with potty mouthed Vince Vaughn andOwen Wilson involved. If you haven’t watched the movie, it’s a must see and my favourite wedding film.
I hope you have enjoyed my list and I look forward to hearing your favourites.

The Wedding Ideas Awards Backstage 2012 in The Brewery in London.
Wedding Ideas Magazine Awards 2012 Backstage from Music Wedding Videos on Vimeo.
We filmed and edited the awards, hosted by Rob Deering, which was great fun. We met lots of great people in the wedding industry and made lots of new friends.
Drinks were flowing, and as the night went on and the giraffe luge was ‘utilised’, dance moves were unleashed.
We would like to thank our friends at http://www.weddingideasmag.com for their continued support.

After doing a few wedding fayres already this year at St Johns Hotel in Solihull (which is featured in an upcoming Superscrimpers programme on Channel 4), and yesterday at The Belfry, I started to ponder upon the question: When is the ideal time to start planning for your big day? Or to get closer to the point, is it more expensive to plan two years in advance?
Many of the people I spoke to yesterday were already hunting around for ideas for their wedding in 2014. Is this not a case of being ‘too organised’ or is it sensible?
My initial thinking was, that they were highly organised (something I am not when it comes to my personal life), and that they were merely ahead of the game. This in turn provoked me to think, ‘surely they will spend more money than those who are getting married in a couple of months’?
(This isn’t a dig at anyone as I don’t want this to end due to the business we are in, don’t get me wrong. But on the same strength, another bride and groom that I spoke to were getting married in May and had nothing booked.)
Obviously the venue, suits,wedding dresses, cake etc are a given; but with the ‘luxury’ things around at the moment such as: photo booths, videographers (including us), fireworks, magicians, string quartets (the list goes on), it is hard to say no to a lot of them.
Is it a case of ‘whats another £1,000 when we’re spending x amount of money already’?
Not all bride and grooms are as lucky* as Kim Kardashian, Myleene Klass or even Prince William and Kate Middleton who planned quite extensively (and for whom money is no object), but where does the spending end?
*Unless we all do what Kim Kardashian did and actually (reportedly) make a profit from the wedding http://bleacherreport.com/articles/918999-how-much-did-kim-kardashians-wedding-cost-their-divorce-by-the-numbers/page/4
This is the other extreme and even I (being a disorganised typical guy) had palpitations at the thought and told them to come back to us after visiting the other stands!
These are two very different cases, but out of the two, who will spend less and probably have the same amount of entertainment and more importantly ‘their’ day?
We were reluctant to get involved with Superscrimpers when they were at the fayre because of the nature of the program, but will this have any effect on the views of brides and grooms, or just be another thing on the list to worry about before the big day?
I think that there needs to be a fine balance between early and too early (and massively late). Obviously with the high demand for quality venues, that needs to be first on the list as you might be disappointed if you leave that too late. The rest can wait for a little while or you might end up gaining a life partner and losing your house
I can honestly say that the wedding industry is providing a great service to the UK and has been for a number of years. Long may it continue and think about this when you’re booking our services for your big day
