Tiffany & Montague
Wedding: February 20, 2010

Dear A&A Video,

If I had to pick just one word to describe our experience with you it would be AMAZING! But of course, I couldn't begin to pick just one word... there's also personable, artistic, talented, warm, inventive, attentive, imaginative, charming, helpful, thoughtful and creative... the list goes on...!

We marveled that you didn't sit back and wait for 'the moment' to happen but somehow, always seemed to be 'one step ahead of the magic of the moment' ... from the flower girl and ring bearer flirting to our crazy family and friends dance antics you didn't seem to miss a thing... HOW do you do that? Just imagine how I will 'gush' about you once we see the actual video! :)

From start to finish, you were a genuine joy to work with... the icing on the cake of an already perfect day!

Big Hugs from a very happy and grateful MOB!

Toni Montegut (mother of the bride)

Clarisse:

Thank you so much; I sure didn't expect you to do that. You guys are sooo kind.

Last night my husband, Mike, told me one of the chemist girls he works with came into his office and told him she's seen him in the wedding video. We couldn't believe it.

She's getting married and I guess has contracted with you guys. He told her how fabulous the DVD was.

Then we were just grinning that you used Ashley in your client presentations. I told Mike, "That's because she's the most beautiful bride that ever lived...."

Thanks and my son, Alex, will be in touch.

Cheri, Mother of the Bride

Hello,

Please forward this note to Dylan as he was the videographer for our wedding on Saturday, January 30, 2010. We hardly knew Dylan was there, while observing his attention to detail and awareness of being unobtrusive. We thank A&A for appointing Dylan to cover our long wedding day, and we will highly recommend him to our friends in the future. Thank you, Dylan, for making A&A such a wonderful vendor to work with. We look forward to seeing the end product.

Dear A&A Video Productions,

Jason and I wanted to thank you for the wonderful work you did at the wedding and afterwards. I especially want to thank Rizwan and Ranjana for the gorgeous footage they shot. Ranjana took the time to get perfect shots, laid out my jewelry, saw the opportunities while I got ready. Also to Imran, Irfan, Krista and Clarisse for working with us throughout and to the editors for piecing it all together.

I miss our wedding day all the time, but when I see the perfect product A&A produced, it takes me back and bring me to tears. Thank you for an amazing, beautiful final product which will always be dear to us and our families.

Thank you.

God bless,

Divisi Strings + LG Entertainment = When Sounds COLLIDE

It was on November 17 at the Arena Tower One Penthouse that the harmonious combination of Divisi Strings + LG Entertainment delivered their musical masterpiece of a Launch Party. Since the birth of their joint-project COLLIDE, these talented folks are revolutionizing the dynamic of the modern soundscape as we know it.

Shelli

Tony

Lewis

JD

Daphnee

We know greatness when we hear it, so we at A&A Video Productions quickly volunteered to create and produce COLLIDE's promotional video. Here's some shots of the guys in action.

 

The very versatile Margaret of Love Lee Photography got stellar shots of the party. Truly skilled in her craft, here are some of Margaret's magnificent takes on the breathtaking view from the Penthouse.

How could we convey in words the intense experience of witnessing COLLIDE in action? By posting Professional Socialite Crystal's short video just to give you a taste of their performance.



COLLIDE was very grateful to all the vendors who contributed to the fabulous event.

 

The decadent chocolate fondue fountains were provided by Sergio of Chocolate Fountain Express.

The sumptuous hors d'oeuvres from Cafe Natalie included these shrimp spring rolls.

These rocking napkins were created by Vivian of The Event House.

Edible Designs by Jessie never fails to wow us with their cakes. COLLIDE's Shelli & Lewis decided to cut their special cake like newlyweds (though Shelli's priceless look betrays her true emotion).

 

The fabulous event was coordinated by none other than Sabrina of Chic Soiree, who also dished out amazing raffle prizes much to the thrill of the audience.

  

Keep your eyes on our blog and website for the promotional video that we will be creating for COLLIDE!

And here is a testimonial to cap off the latest post -

Melissa & Martin
Wedding: August 15, 2009

Hello,

We wanted to tell you thank you for such a wonderful video. I cannot tell you how many times my husband and I have seen it just by ourselves ;-)
You guys did such an amazing job capturing every moment. And the way the video was put together was amazing... makes us feel like we were still in the moment.

Thanks,
Melissa Floresca Mejia

Danya & Abdelkader
Wedding: August 7, 2009

Dear A&A,

I laughed... I cried... I even got up and danced! I LOVED it.

Thank you so much for working with me and making this video absolutely beautiful.

Sincerely,
Danya & Abdelkader

Have Imagination. Will Film.

There are plenty of things that can easily be replaced or substituted the minute they are gone. Memories are not one of those things. Like resplendent, delicate butterflies, each is incredibly detailed and unique, and likewise as fleeting.
Luckily, we at A&A Video Productions are butterfly collectors.

We can produce any kind of movie from weddings and Save the Date videos to parties, quinceñeras and anniversaries to corporate presentation or training videos to facility tours.
Here are just a few fresh ideas from the myriad of films we can create.

Trash the Dress Video

Trash The Dress has morphed into this fun and fearless final note of the wedding symphony. It is an art form in which the elegance of traditional wedding clothing contrasts with a rough natural or urban environment creating a surreal visual splendor. Pictured above is an example of Trash The Dress captured wonderfully in a photo format by our friends at Serendipity Photography. So what about a slow dance knee-deep in water on the beach with your significant other? Or a theatrical recap of you two frolicking in the woods? We could weave a movie around both of you wrecking utter havoc upon your wedding garments and we assure you, it'll be an exhilarating experience!

Sports Films

So your football team just made a comeback win within the last quarter. Or your basketball team just executed a fantastic play against your arch rivals. These glorious moments highlighting your team and individual strengths can be compiled into your own sports film. Can we say video resume? What better way to stand out from the rest, especially in such a highly competitive market.

Video is such a versatile communication tool that your imagination is literally the limit to the movies we can make for you. Make sure to contact us to preserve those special moments and golden ideas now.

All-In-One

Karishma of our Save the Date video fame came to visit us last week with some scrumptious cake from La Madeleine and a beautiful Thank You card that goes something like this:

Dear A&A,

First of all, thank you for being more than friends, you are truly like family. I always think about you guys in Florida and wish you would re-locate ASAP! Thank you for making my event even more special.

Riz, thanks for calming me down before Sangeet started. I really needed that pep talk.

Imran, thanks for surprising me with your visit at the reception with your wife.

Farhan, we all know "you're the best..." - haha

And Irfan, thank you for your creativity!

Love,

Karishma & Samir

In other news, it can never be too late to plug The Gallery's amazing Bridal Open House last month. What a great turn out from couples who were eager to get everything ready for their upcoming weddings. Top-notch vendors who assisted them with their wedding needs were Demeris Catering, Eventology Weddings,  Cherubs Chocolate and Cakes by Gina.
The lovely Tara Brocato, who professionally assists couples and clients in planning and organizing The Gallery's events, wrote us this beautiful note.

 

Pictured below is me and the delightful Kelly Balfour of Eventology Weddings rather obviously enjoying ourselves c/o Catch The Moment, known for their portable green screen fun booth.

We are also incredibly hyped about Chrissy and Eric's wedding coming up in February next year! We just know it's going to be an incredibly fun celebration and these two are too cute to not come out as stellar leads in their upcoming wedding movie we will be making. Here's this creative couple's Save the Date invite:

A Worthwhile Vocation

Ashley & Justin

Wedding: July 11, 2009

Imran,

I wanted to thank you and your staff for the beautiful job that was done in capturing all of the special moments during my daughter's wedding and reception at Briscoe Manor. I do remember everything being beautiful but I really did not realize how beautiful the wedding and reception truly was until I saw the video. Such detail was captured of Briscoe Manor as well as the Chapel which was decorated beautifully and this was very evident in the video. Ashley and Justin were captured getting ready and these moments were really hard to remember as everyone was busy getting them ready so even some of the most simple moments can now be remembered and treasured. Excellent detail was also seen in the actual ceremony which again was hard to remember because of the tears that a mother sheds as her youngest daughter gets married. I was also able to see how beautiful the reception hall was once it was fully decorated because the decorating was not completed until we were all getting dressed for the ceremony. Your staff also captured the bride's and groom's cakes which had such detail and elegance as well as the tables, flowers and the dinner that was served, all of which were hard to remember due to how fast the evening went. It was also fun to see all the things that occurred during the reception that were captured that we did not see. All of the things that your staff captured during this special day in Ashley & Justin's life can always be remembered as well as treasured and will always hold a special place in all of our hearts. Your are to be commended on the excellent presentation of the video as well as the selection of music that was used in preparing the video as everything flowed so well through out the video. THANK YOU AGAIN for doing such an EXCELLENT job in capturing all of the SPECIAL MOMENTS during such a special time in Ashley and Justin's lives!!
I strongly recommend A&A Video Productions to any mother of the brides, bride or groom who truly wants excellent quality that will allow them to remember as well as treasure a moment in time that is truly SPECIAL!! THANK YOU Briscoe Manor for an excellent recommendation as A&A Video Productions provided excellent professionalism and quality in their work which is evident in all they do!!

Esther Mullineaux, Mother of the Bride

Parents' anniversary: August 25, 2009

Imran and Rizwan,
I just wanted you all to know how much my parents loved their anniversary gift. They said that it was the best anniversary they've gotten. Not only did they enjoy it but so did the rest of the family. Everybody has seen the video innumerable amount of times. I am sad and surprised to say that it has taken the spotlight away from my wedding videos now. Thank you for everything you guys did from all of us.

Corporate Clientele

We created a video for the Asian American Bar Association in June 2009 and Director Warren Huang wrote us this email:

"Hi Imran,

I just wanted to let you know that we played the video at our Gala and Silent Auction last Friday, and it was a resounding success. Everyone was highly complimentary of the quality of the video, so thank you again for your excellent work on the project.

Thanks!

Warren Huang"

Keisha's Kreations EyeKandy

Keisha Ervin, aesthetics authority and director of Keisha's Kreations, was gracious enough to have us at her very first open house on August 22. Together with Tannie of DeVine Choices, event planner extraordinaire, she hosted a beautiful and intimate event that showcased the dream-like work that she can weave for potential brides.

We played Kimberly & Joseph's charming and tear-jerking video throughout the afternoon since it highlighted the vibrant and elegant details Keisha put into their big day on May 2nd.

It was an absolute pleasure to have met some wonderful vendors like Tanya Robertson Beauty, the Dancing DJ's, and Elegante Entertainment, whose photo booth complete with crazy hats and boas, had everyone lined up and fighting for turns until the end of the event. And here's the lovely Ms. Ann Neal with Kakes Xcetera modeling her scrumptious tower of cupcakes.

Gracias for having us, Keisha! And may the wonderful weddings continue to pour in.

Blu-Ray clients

Imran, I checked out the Blu-Ray copy that you sent me. I didn't get to watch the whole thing...but I did check on all the corrections and the audio issues. Everything looks great! I'm sure the copies for the parents are the same. I will check on it and let you know later. Thank you for all your patience, including your team. We have been dealing with each other since January 2008 about this production. It finally paid off. Thank you for the outstanding job, professionalism, and mostly your patience with all of this. I really appreciate you guys. You will definitely be recommended by me to others. I'm looking forward to our highlights on your website as you said it would be there. When will that happen? Let us know! Keep doing a great job and may God bless all of you. Whenever y'all are back in Austin...let me know. Take care.

Sincerely, Mathew Thomas

Show Stoppers and Bridal Shoppers

Thank goodness for photographic evidence of a night of bridal fashion, fabulosity and fun. We at A&A Video Productions had a fantastic time at the Alden-Houston Bridal Open House. Social Catering Manager Lauren MacQueen deserves some sort of plaque for the amazing show. In collaboration with Houston Brides and mia bridal couture, one of their highlights was a beautifully executed fashion show that made this open house unlike any other.

Stunning veils and headdresses. Ornate buttons and beads in detailed patterns. Gorgeous gown trains that have will have guests staring in admiration all the way up to the altar. In other words, what brides-to-be dreams are made of.

David, a soldier in A&A's army of talent, skillfully covered the live feed for the fashion show together with the crew from Impressive Events. He takes his job very seriously... but he has fun with it too. How can you not at an event like this?

Guests were elated at the grand raffle drawing at the end of the fashion show, wherein the cards were signed by the elite vendors present. Lauren herself hand-picked the winners as Joe announced them to a delighted audience.

 

Thanks for having us and cheers to the Alden-Houston. And everyone else, don't forget - we can create films for your venue as well! Contact us and we'll be glad to put together a masterful feature that properly showcases all your facility's assets.
