We had been talking with Jana about her December wedding at the Peabody Essex Museum when suddenly we got a call from her soon to be mother-in-law telling us that there was going to be a slight change in plans, and while the December Big wedding was still happening, there was now going to be a just-family wedding next weekend in a perennial garden in New Hampshire (!!) and was there any chance we could send an assistant to cover it?
We had connected with Jana almost from our first contact with her. She taught Art and was an artist, was just relocating to Boston after having met her fiance' in D.C. and immediately felt connected to our work. As we were working out the details for covering her December 11 wedding, this pre-wedding wedding showed up, and since we were free, Trevor and I drove up to NH to cover it. This wedding was a real down-home country wedding, put together in little over a week by the families, with about 20 guests - all siblings and children of siblings and best friends - officiated by a pastor who was a long-time family friend.
The reasons for the sudden first wedding became clear to us as we interviewed the couple during their reception (no, they were not pregnant) and their sweet and poignant story will be in their wedding film.
Now we're all excited about their Big wedding on Dec 11, when we'll be working again with Tara and Ben of Hitched studios, who can usually be seen on the dance floor some time during the night and are a blast to work with! We'll be showing a highlights from wedding one at the ceremony of wedding 2, (a first for us!) - as well as montages and covering the whole weekend as well. We're very excited to be such a big part of another wonderful wedding.
