  • Destination – Punta Cana – Fiona + Ricky – Official Trailer – Part 2

    Before I talk about the couple or the wedding, let me clearly explain the “Part 2″ in the title. Ricky & Fiona had another wedding a month before this one in Toronto (we will be showcasing that eventually). That will be “Part 1″. Just wanted to show the sequel before the original:)

    It is very rare that we get last minute bookings but whenever we do, most of the time, they turn out to be an amazing experience. Having seen our work at Saif + Somi’s wedding, Ricky & Fiona immediately decided to avail our services for both their local and destination weddings.

    In almost every relationship, there is always one person who is more energetic or outgoing than the other one until of course with time, they both become very similar. In this case, Ricky is the more up beat and always looking for an adventure. Fiona on the other hand is a little different but is willing to tag along with all of Ricky’s crazies ideas.

    We were in Punta Cana’s Majestic Elegance resort for almost a week and the wedding festivities occurred for almost a day. The rest of the time, the bridal party spent their time at the beach, pool and outdoor activities.

    Although, we try to differentiate as much as possible from our previous works, here, we tried to make this an extremely different film.

    We hope you enjoy it

  • Cassandra + Ravi – Next Day Edit

    In July of 2010, Cassandra Williams approached us for a concept production, having seen a few productions on our website. She also wanted to take us on for our cinematography services, only she’d already booked with another company. But following our conversations, she decided to opt out of her initial contract and sign up with us instead. And thus began this journey.

    And thus began the brainstorming. We met up with both Cassandra and her fiancé Ravi Ramjit to that end…the conclusion of which was the concept film ‘Kismet se Milna’ (A Chance Encounter). But enough about that, let’s get down to the crux of the matter: the wedding itself!

    It is Film-Style’s philosophy that our team should come to know the couple very well, so that we can produce work that really brings forth the couple’s personality, and that the couple should come to know our team very well so that they become completely comfortable in front of the camera. To that end, we spent well over 30 hours in Skype conferencing with Ravi and Cassandra over the past year—and it certainly shows. Both Ravi and Cassandra were very relaxed throughout each event, i.e. the mehndi, the pooja, and the ceremony and reception.

    Hindu weddings are a bright affair as it is but this one was especially so–it was full of life, colour and a lot of fun. And Dream Party Decor‘s decor was, as always: Stunning. So have a look at this Next Day Edit and check out the much anticipated concept film ‘Kismet se Milna’ (A Chance Encounter), tomorrow.

  • Sameera + Jagandeep – Next Day Edit

    Film-Style has always had the unique pleasure of working with interfaith couples. Covering an interfaith marriage is loads of fun, not just because of the different cultural and religious traditions that are all wrapped up in one big happy package  but also because it’s a rewarding experience to be able to see two very different worldviews, encompassed within those cultural and religious traditions, become as one. It’s a ‘feel good’ kind of wedding that enables and embraces differences even as it reconciles them within the institution of a marriage.

    Sameera (the Muslim bride) and Jagan (the Sikh groom) proved to us once again this beauty of an interfaith union. On July 8th, this couple held their Sangeet/Holud where their respective cultural traditions were paid tribute to “desi-style,” with a lot of dancing and a lot of performances. And on July 9th, their respective religious traditions were honored and upheld at their respective religious ceremonies, with a lot of love and respect from their families.

    We wish this couple great success in the future and a lot of happy new traditions in the making. Cheers!
