One of the most majestic locations we've had to pleasure to shoot at is the Mission Inn. The architecture is stunning and the imagery is breathtaking. If you frame your shots just right, you'd swear you're in an Italian villa as opposed to old town Riverside, California. This was the wedding of Nora and Reno. Theirs is a classic tale of how love almost didn't happen. Bad timing for when they first met should have closed the chapter on this romance. But, as fate would have it, things worked out in a way that opened up the opportunity for Nora and Reno to take a chance. Love always will find a way. The words you hear being read by the MC are letters Nora and Reno wrote to each other. This reading was the first time each had heard what the other wrote. Wow! It gives me chills every time a watch it.
This video is rated a "3-hankie movie." :-) Enjoy!

- Second Camera: John Goolsby. Note: this was a special pleasure for me because John is an icon in the professional event videography business. He's an industry leader, inspiring speaker, and one of the most gracious people I've met. To put it in perspective, having him as my second shooter would be analogous to Luke having Obi Wan Kenobi fight alongside him. Sorry for the geek reference, but it's apropos here because Nora and Reno played the Star Wars Throne Room Song during their recessional.
