Leading up to the wedding day of Ted and Ivana, we were blessed with much time to get to know each other. Mainly because we planned on doing a Spoof to show at their wedding. It all started with an idea that both Ted and Ivana had. They love the show “How I Met Your Mother” I think one because the main characters name is Ted… but also the similarities with how they first met. Not to mention that Ivana was carrying a red umbrella and the love interest on the show had a yellow umbrella. So we tried to come up with a creative way as a team to incorporate the different ideas into one short film.
After many rainy days canceling our shoots, we finally decided to push through. Although the rain works for the opening scene, we did have to do multiple days to get the other days in the sun.
These two are such troopers. From messy ice cream, to baby powder and rain storms they pulled off one really fun film. PLUS they are not actors.. so they really did a fantastic job….
That leads us to a few days ago… The real day that they had been waiting for… The main event… Ivana’s house was overflowing with family and friends who were all excited for the big day. We had a few big storms, but it seemed like it was clearing up… Ivana just glowed knowing that she would soon be walking down the aisle to Ted.
I have to admit that her Oscar De La Renta was beautiful on the hanger, but as soon as she put it on it became stunning!!! She was one of the prettiest brides I have ever seen.
As the day progressed, the storms continued, but the most beautiful thing came from it… Everyone worked together to make the day perfect. Family and friends, staff at Byington Vineyard, and vendors alike held umbrellas, carried decorations and more.
And most of all Ted and Ivana were married… they were both smiling and happy all day long…
The first video is the Same Day Edit that we created.. The second is the Spoof that we made.
Hope you enjoy!
Here is the spoof that we made with Ted + Ivana
