{Real Jewish Weddings} Malibu, CA

Posted on March 4, 2014 by Alison in Real Jewish Weddings, Wedding Cinematography

This wedding, you guys, is eye candy. But instead of lollipops and chocolates, it’s stunning bride and breathtaking venue. Both adjectives also apply to both nouns.

Mackenzie was constantly beaming her entire wedding day. And why shouldn’t she? She was marrying her handsome groom, overlooking some of the most gorgeous Southern California landscape, and celebrating on a property that made her feel like the queen she truly was. After all, it is said that on the wedding day, the bride and groom are royalty, and there was nothing less than the royal treatment given to this couple.

Eric and his groomsmen all looked devilishly handsome as they got ready together and, later, celebrated with the entire wedding party.

It’s hard not to drool over all the modern touches of this Jewish wedding: their take on a chuppah with a floating chandelier in the center was chic to the chic-est power; Mackenzie’s dress was the perfect combination of sexy and romantic with classic and timeless nods thanks to the lace; and their tablescapes, while draped in whites and silvers, whispered hints of geometric styles in the centerpieces and chargers.

What a truly remarkable wedding!

Mazel tov, Mackenzie and Eric!

Surprise Wedding Dance at A Los Angeles Jewish Wedding

Posted on March 3, 2014 by Alison in Wedding Cinematography

David and Dorsa’s traditional Jewish wedding took place at the Universal Sheraton in Los Angeles, and the two sparkled while they exchanged smiles with each other, their friends, and their family. Dorsa’s walk down the aisle was dramatic and stunning as she edged her way to the chuppah under the dark sky, complemented by twinkle lights. Then, when she circled her handsome groom, the tears of joy tickled her face in a way that most brides understand as she experienced generations of tradition.

After their ceremony, festivities came to life with joyous dancing and classic, feminine decor. The room was filled with cheers and laughter along with stunning aesthetic details (notice the table linens! Elaborately delicate!). The true highlight? A surprise that took a twist! You know David and Dorsa are clearly a perfect match when they know each others’ shenanigans too well!

Ahava Films did a wonderful job capturing David and Dorsa’s beautiful wedding, and, as usual, integrates the perfect mix of music, camera shots, and clever editing. If you’re on the fence about hiring a video crew to document your wedding, films like Ahava’s should convince you to go for it! Your photographs will last you a lifetime with beautiful still images, but a video will also allow for you to see dances and hear speeches for all your days to come.
