Patrick + Tiffany = Southern Charm


Patrick and Tiffany - Southern Charm from Northernlight Filmworks on Vimeo.

This was a mini destination wedding for us. The place: Morganfield, Kentucky. A small southern town was the backdrop of this emotion filled wedding of Patrick and Tiffany. Being in Morganfield for a few days really helped us observe the family, friends and the couple and how they all interacted with each other. It was always quite evident from the first time we spoke with Patrick on the phone, that relationships and family were top on their list. Being in the wings we picked up on how well connected the family was to the town of Morganfield. Not in a political sense but a connection of the heart. The Groom and the Brides family seemed to dance in concert with each other and lean heavily on their faith. The family's of both were so sincere and the hospitality was very much appreciated. We had an opportunity to interview both Patrick and Tiffany and these are always very relaxed and it just becomes a conversation, which inherently brings out true and authentic emotions. Spending time with the couple without being invasive props the edit up as being true and sincere.

My colleague Chris Jones of Mason Jar Films, coined the term "Indie Cinematic" and that's how this edit feels to us.

Thank you Patrick and Tiffany, for making this a memory for us and we wish you both all the best in your quest to leave your mark in life.

Sincerely,
John and Jennifer Moon

"Southern Charm"...So appropriate!
There were so many amazing shots in there along with the perfect audio! So beautiful and emotional! I can't even imagine the all the tears that will fill the the room when the Bride, Groom, and their families watch this!

Such a wonderfully told story. It adds so much having the background story to fill in the details. Superb!

I really loved this video. By the time the bride was walking down the aisle, I was sold. I felt like I already knew this couple. And what's more, I liked them!
This couple was fortunate to have someone like Northern Lights that cared about their wedding day as much as they did.
