Amber + Mike HD Trailer

Amber and Mike were married at Arrowhead Golf Club in Littleton, Colorado. Since they live in Key West, their wedding day was the first time we officially met, and we were overjoyed to find out how sweet and kind they both are! Amber was one of the cutest, happiest brides we've seen; having fun, laughing and smiling the whole day - she is adorable! We were also thrilled to be working with our friends Jennifer and Rich of Candy Apple Photography again - they are one of the best photographers we've worked with, very laid back, easy-going and incredible! Kudos to them for setting up such amazing shots! And thank you Amber and Mike for allowing Rising Moon to be a part of your day. We hope you two are having fun on your cruise, and hopefully you'll get a chance check out your 'sneak peek' aboard the ship. Enjoy!

Sarah + Matt HD Highlights

Sarah and Matt were married at The Ridge at Castle Pines in Castle Rock, Colorado. We were all looking forward to Matt and his groomsmen's grand motorcycle entrance and were disappointed when the rain couldn't hold off long enough for the ceremony. Although a little rain didn't stop them from sharing their emotional vows in a cozy, intimate indoor setting instead. Sarah and Matt were a joy to work with, and we were kept very entertained throughout the night by Matt's crazy antics! :) Everyone had an awesome time dancing the night away under the stars. It was also wonderful working with Corrie from CLB Photography; she was so upbeat and thoroughly loves what she does! Congratulations Matt and Sarah, we wish you many happy years together!

Joe + Niki Sneak Peek

Pastor Joe and Niki were married at an enchanting private residence in Parker, Colorado. The grounds were decorated with a tropical theme, complete with their very own private Tiki Bar, torches lighting the walkway, shells on the cake and leis for their guests. And what an amazing couple! They were both so willing and enthusiastic to spend as much time needed to get the perfect shots - which makes our job a whole lot easier! Thank you both for inviting us to document your special day. So Joe, crack open a nice, cold Pepsi and enjoy your trailer!

Alanna + Dan Say "Yi! Do"

Alanna and Dan contacted us to film their wedding a little less than a month before their wedding date, but they had good reason - they recently won Slacker & Steve's 'Diss or Bliss' Wedding Giveaway and only had a short amount of time to plan, prepare and send the invites! Alice 105.9 was so generous to provide nearly all of the vendors for the perfect wedding, only they forgot one vital part - the cinematographer! We were honored to be a part of such a special day, and I can't think of anyone more deserving than Alanna and Dan. Slacker and Steve did have a few tricks up their sleeves, including a surprise dance with Alanna to the ever-so romantic Marvin Gaye hit "Let's Get it On!" (look for a separate posting of their dance, since it didn't make the highlight.) Although Dan quickly cut in, and swept his bride off her feet as they danced the night away. And man - did this group DANCE! They heated up the dance floor all night, and we were having a blast filming such an energetic group. Congratulations Alanna and Dan, it was such an honor to be part of your wedding day! We hope you enjoy your highlights!

Chelsea + Colin HD Trailer

Chelsea and Colin were married at Rockland Community Church in Golden, Colorado. I knew right away why they must have chosen this church - the view is breathtaking! We also loved Chelsea's bold choice of colors, hot pink and black; and she did an awesome job with the decor. The party really got started with several dance-offs, and everyone danced the night away. Surrounded by their friends and family, it was a day to remember. And Chelsea and Colin, don't forget - "take a lot of vacations!!" :) Enjoy the sneak peak!

Dianna + Jeremiah Wedding Sneak Peek

A little rain can't stop a wedding! Dianna and Jeremiah tied the knot at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs amidst frequent downpours and even hail! Although shooting in the rain with one hand on an umbrella was a new challenge, I apologize for the shake. The bottom half of my pants were soaked for the rest of the night, but hey, anything for the shot, right? Ever since her 18th birthday party at The Broadmoor, Dianna had her eye set on this venue for her wedding day, and even though the ceremony had to be moved indoors, that didn't stop them from expressing their love for one another in front of their friends and family. The venue was gorgeous, and the rain did manage to let up after the ceremony to allow for some outdoor shots to take advantage of the beautiful surroundings. The evening was filled with emotional toasts, good food, and even a dance-off or two! We hope to have their full highlights posted in the next few weeks. It was great working with Taylor Fry of Eat Drink & Be Married Event Services again, and also the amazing Steve Tinetti. Check out a sneak peak of some of their photos on his blog. Congrats Dianna & Jeremiah - we hope you're having fun in St. Lucia!

Joe + Niki Lovestory

After rescheduling a few times waiting for better weather, we finally found the perfect day! Joe, Niki and I spent a few hours wandering around Denver shooting footage for their love story film. They are both very laid back, easy-going and up for anything, which made shooting their love story a lot of fun! Congratulations you two - can't wait to shoot your wedding next month!

Erin brought up the idea at their engagement session, and we all agreed it would be a really fun project to work on together! And Erin and Ryan were so fun, easy-going, and approached all of our shot ideas with a great attitude! We incorporated some footage from their engagement session, some photos courtesy of Chris Sharber Photography, and interviews from their parents. Overall, we think it turned out pretty good. Check it out; please feel free to leave comments!

Rebecca & David's Love Story

What can you say about Becca & David - they are one couple that are quite obviously truly in love and it shows! The circumstances of how they met seemed to be fate, and they were meant to be together. We met up with Becca, David and Candy Apple Photography at Eldorado Canyon State Park to shoot their engagement session a couple months back, while the fall colors were in full bloom... apparently everyone else in the area took advantage of the beautiful weather and showed up too, since the parking lot was jam packed! It was well worth it, the footage was amazing. Thank you Rebecca and David for being such good sports, and taking the time to share your unique story. See you Saturday!

Heather and Robert Trailer

We had the pleasure of shooting Heather and Robert's wedding at The Sanctuary in Sedalia, Colorado a couple weeks ago. They were such a fun, cute couple to work with! Thanks to their amazing photographer,Travis Broxton, we were able to capture some spectacular moments under the fading light at sunset. The roaring fire kept the ceremony and reception nice and toasty into the night. Thank you Heather and Robert for allowing Rising Moon Video to film your love story; Enjoy!

On a Brisk Fall Day in October...

..Shauna and Brenden said "I do" at the beautiful Tapestry House just west of Fort Collins. The fall colors were at full intensity, and the outdoor site was magical. Even the little bit of rain towards the end of the evening couldn't put a damper on the day. We wish them and their wonderful family nothing but happiness! Congrats!

Jennifer and Jason

It was a cool, cloudy fall day in Evergreen, as Summer and I had the privilege of shooting Jennifer and Jason's wedding at the Meadows at Marshdale. The day started out sunny and brisk, but it soon turned freezing! Luckily, the rain held off until just after the ceremony was over. We all headed to the reception in the barn, which was warm and cozy. Thanks for choosing Rising Moon to be a part of your day - we wish you both the best!
