Hey Guys,  

 Wow, I don’t even really know where to start. My husband Matt and I are so blessed to have met Bruce and Michele I can’t even put into words. At the last minute our photographer was stricken with swine flu and we were on a very tiny island in the Caribbean with very few options when our wedding planner told us of her friends back in the states who were willing to work out a deal with us. They hopped on a flight the day before our wedding and arrived on Vieques Island to make our dreams come true! I can’t tell you how nervous I was as a bride to have never met my photographer and had never been able to discuss all the pictures I wanted to have done with her. Not to mention I never even gave thought to a videographer. So there I was on my wedding day about to get married in about 2 hours and I still hadn’t met them yet when I looked off my balcony and there were Bruce and Michele literally standing in the water practicing the angles to get the best shots of our wedding. What a relief! I just knew from watching them for those few moments that we were in the best hands possible and all my worries melted away. They both came up to my bridal suite and introduced themselves and they had such a calming demeanor I finally felt like I could sit back and enjoy the wedding. A few short weeks later Matt and I received our photos and copies of our DVD and they mean so much to us! It was so amazing on Christmas to sit down with our families and be able to watch all the moments captured on film that we had completely forgot about. If any bride out there is on the fence about hiring Bruce for videography don’t even think twice, and seriously Bruce give that bride our number and we will be sure to change her mind! Also Michele took such beautiful photos at such flattering angles (thank god! haha)everyone looked phenomenal. I just want to thank you both again for such professionalism it was such an honor to have worked with you.
 
      All The Best, Brianna Rothman
 
PS we miss you guys come to Maine soon!

With a stunningly gorgeous sunset wedding as the backdrop, the tears streamed from Matt’s eyes as he watched his Beautiful Bride, Brianna, escorted by her parents, walk down the wooden steps leading from there Villa to the beachside ceremony where he waited to exchange I do’s.

I was up to my hips in that 80 degree water for most of the Service as well as my wife Michele who was handling the Photography.  You have to go to where the best  shot is, mine just so happened to be in the water.

 If any of you know me, I’m an avid fisherman and my next attempt will be to videotape a Wedding in the ocean up to my hips while still being able to throw a line, talk about a dream job.

While it was a short ceremony, it was full of emotion as 50 of Brianna and Matt’s family and friends looked on.  Michele and I received many wonderful compliments all evening long from our new friends.  They even pulled Michele onto the dancefloor with them later that night.  But you can bet she didn’t let go of her camera!  So, someone’s got those pictures!  We both had a wonderful time documenting the day for our new-found neighbors.  These folks live just up the road from us in Portland, Maine. All your kind words were taken most graciously, thank you once again.

Sandy Malone who owns and operates Weddings in Vieques had every little setting laid out perfectly.  Whenever I Videotape one of Sandy’s Weddings In Vieques, I know that the guests as well as the Bride and Groom will have the best of EVERYTHING.

I’m fortunate to see the complete set up for the Reception before the guests and family arrive,  Sandy’s Staff  is on top of its game.  As guests see the venue for the first time as they arrive, most have their breath taken away at the sight of this gorgeous destination wedding.

A little about this awesome Wedding Party Brianna & Matt chose, do you people ever sleep?  I get around the island quite a bit and I ran into them everywhere.. more at Al’s Mar Azul than anywhere, nothing wrong with that.  You guys were so much fun!  Matt and Brianna have wonderful friends who know how to party, and so do their families.  Hardly anyone sat out the dancing that just never quit.  The bridesmaids danced to just about every song played and I even saw someone’s Dad and mom dancing in the pool. Don’t worry dad, it’s all over the DVD.  What a Party.

I had a great time and hope to run into you folks again someday.

Best to you all, Bruce
