1st Annual Wedding Video Awards

Hello everyone,

I have to admit, as winter drags on I get a little stir crazy. So it was a welcome distraction when I was invited to the 1st Annual Wedding Video Awards at Eyes on Minnesota on the 50th floor of the IDS Tower. This lovely gala awards ceremony featured the most talented videographers in Minnesota and guests were treated to a delicious cocktail reception and viewing of the top 10 wedding videos in Minnesota!

The evening started out with fantastic views of the Minneapolis skyline. Although I am very afraid of heights, I definitely appreciated the beauty of the city all lit up at night. (As long as I didn't look down, it was breathtaking, in a good way.) The 50th floor of the IDS Center is definitely a perfect venue if you're considering a swanky, evening wedding.

During cocktail hour, guests dined on mini-beef wellington, chicken satay in peanut sauce, fresh fruit, mini cream cheese wontons and salmon bites. After enjoying some wine and appetizers, we were invited to sit down and watch the Top 10 wedding videos of Minnesota. The videos were chosen by a panel of judges from within the industry.

I'm happy to share that I learned of some very talented videographers that I've not yet had the opportunity to work with. A few of the videographer vendors that stood out to me are: Olsen Media, Northern Lights Video, and Sky Focus Films. Each of them had different approaches to their craft but collectively their finished product made an impression on me! I'm hoping to work with these up and coming videographers in the near future!

Happy planning,
