When Jose and Arcel said “I do,” it was more than the joining of two hearts—it was the blending of two families.

This couple’s lives are richly woven with family ties and the deep bonds they share with loved ones. Family means everything to them. Jose took on the honored role of stepping in for Arcel’s father, while Arcel was welcomed with open arms by Jose’s mother. Witnessing such love and support from both families is truly heartwarming.

Isn’t love a roller coaster of emotions? From the butterflies and nervous excitement of early romance, to the feeling of being right at home as you reach beautiful milestones together, it’s a wonderful journey with that special someone. But then, wedding jitters come into play!

It’s common to feel those tangled knots and nerves on your wedding day. However, for many couples, those feelings quickly melt away as their gaze rests on the one waiting at the end of the aisle—and even more so as their hands intertwine. Real love has this unique ability to create a safe space where you can fully be yourself without hesitation.

Creating a same-day wedding edit is no easy task. It’s more than just filming events as they unfold—it’s about capturing the heart of the day, tastefully and with depth. Both the videographer and editor face the challenge of not only documenting the ceremony, reception, and after-party but also the quiet, intimate moments shared with family. How do you capture all of that while also showing who the couple really is?

For Michael and Stephanie, we wanted to do justice to their story—not just the lavish celebration, but the beautiful connection between them. Their love is what truly made the day special, and that’s what we hoped to reflect in this video.
