Most of the time, a marriage is not fully tested until well after the wedding. However, Erin and Earl's relationship would be one that would last though many years of trials, all before the proposal even took place.
They supported one another through high school, college, the passing of loved ones and separation by a call to duty that took Earl halfway around the world. Somehow through all of this, their relationship not only held together but grew stronger. They grew up together.
The wedding day was beautiful. It took place at The Gardens at Sunday Park in Midlothian, Virginia. The weather was absolutely perfect for the ceremony and reception. The reception venue allowed for a great view of the sun setting across the lake -simply breathtaking. The event was less about the formality of ceremony and more about the coming together of a small group of people that are forever connected by the lives of this couple.
Meeting some of these people at the wedding was a truly great experience for me. This event really reminded me that weddings are about much more than ceremony or tradition. They are a celebration of complex stories of life, love, family and friends.
What a great story to help tell.

This seriously made my heart smile (and my eyes tear up a bit). 
William, great couple, a perfect match, and their story is well told by you. Thanks for sharing!
That is a fantastic film. The bride is beautiful.. the groom charming. I could be biased since she’s my daughter. I think Bill captured them so perfectly…
Every time I watch this film… I go back to that day and think about how beautiful and meaningful it was. They made it their own…
They have just celebrated their 6th month anniversary… they are still as happy as that day.. even more so.
Bill .. you did a great job capturing a special moment in my family history.
Thanks

About Me: Welcome to this conversation about wedding films. I am a filmmaker of course, but also a son and a husband and a father. In addition to those things, I consider myself to be a storyteller. However, my love for stories started long before I ever picked up a camera. Through the years I have come to believe that story is really the breath of life. I hope that these blog posts encourage the conversation not only of how great wedding films are made, but also, and maybe more importantly, why they are made.
Sweet video! I think it’s amazing that this couple endured so much and ended up together. I admire their love for each other.
